   Puppet: Any puppet will do

=======================================================

PUPPET: (Puppet appears with a winter coat, gloves, hat, and scarf.

MC: Hey Milton, what's going on? Are you going to Alaska or what? It's
a little chilly today but aren't you exaggerating it a bit?

PUPPET: No, I'm afraid of the snow storms and the cold. I'm afraid I
will get covered with snow and freeze to death, so I came prepared.

MC: Prepared? Prepared for what?  It's not cold enough to snow. What
are you talking about?

PUPPET: The snow, Marilyn. THE SNOW!  Remember I asked Jesus into my
heart like you said and he came in and forgave me my sins. Then you
said he made them into snow - so here I am freezing my tail off waitng
for my sins to turn to snow.

MC: What? Where in the world did you get such a crazy idea?

PUPPET: But the Bible says so. You taught us the vers - "Though your
sins be as scarlet they shall be as white as snow."

MC: Oh, I ge it. You misunderstood the verse. It doesn't say your sins
will become snow flakes, or turn to snow. It says they will become
white just LIKE SNOW!

PUPPET: Right, just like snow, so that's why I'm ready for the snow
storm. 

MC: No, listen Milton. The verse also says "Though your sins be as be
as crimson, they shall be as wool." That doesn't mean that your sins
will be like sheep's wool or like a scarf or winter coat. It's talking
about how sheep's wool is white and your sins will be made white. Our
sins will be made clean like white snow or wool.

PUPPET: Oh, you mean my sin was black and dirty but Jesus made it
clean and white!

MC: Yes, that's it. Remember how when it snows and later the sun comes
out and how blindlingly bright the white snow is? That's as white as
snow.

PUPPET: OK! (He ducks out of sight and returns with a pair of huge
sunglasses.) There! Now I'm ready! I'll have to remember to wear
sunglasses because my sins are whiter than snow. 

MC: Not exactly Milton. Only Jesus can see the whiteness or blackness
of our hearts. There is not need to wear sunglasses, or winter coats.
Jesus can see the heart of every boy and girl right now. He alone
knows the color of your heart.

PUPPET: Alright - I'm going to get out of these hot winter clothes.
I'm sweating like a pig. See you next week!
