Jesus Surprises 700 Club With Walk-On Appearance

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA—Friday's episode of the popular Christian-current affairs program "The 700 Club" featured a surprise appearance by Jesus Christ, who dropped by the set and chatted briefly with host Pat Robertson. Christ told Robertson "...verily I say unto you, if you truly seek a place in my kingdom, heed my call: give all of your wealth to the poor and follow me, for thou cannot serve both God and mammon. No man can serve two masters, either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. In my service your riches will not be of this world where thieves break through and steal or moth and rust doth corrupt. For where your treasure is, so shall your heart be also." A stunned and surprised Robertson quickly called for security before leading into a commercial break. After which the show continued with their regularly scheduled guests; Dr. Manny Alvarez with a segment discussing "What fast food and stress are doing to our bodies" and Life Coach Valerie Burton introducing her latest self-help book, "Discovering Your Inner Beauty; Cosmetics for the Soul."
The show's Executive Producer issued an official statement indicating that Federal INS and Homeland Security departments have been notified concerning the undocumented status of the man they described as "a dangerous Middle Eastern agitator", since he apparently had no passport or identification when confronted by studio security. Later in the show Robertson quipped "with a name like, Hay-Soos, that guy is obviously in the country illegally. Can you believe he had the nerve to come on MY show and spew all that liberal-socialist spread-the-wealth nonsense? What do we care what he says, he's not even allowed to vote!"
