Jesus Is in the Bathroom

A Sunday school teacher of preschoolers was concerned that his students might be a little confused about Jesus Christ because of the Christmas season emphasis on His birth．He wanted to make sure they understood that the birth of Jesus occurred a long time ago，that He grew up，etc．So he asked his class，“Where is Jesus today？”

Steven raised his hand and said，“He’s in heaven．”

Mary was called on and answered，“He’s in my heart．”

Little Johnny，waving his hand furiously，blurted out，“I know！I know！He’s in our bathroom！！！”

The whole class got very quiet，looked at the teacher，and waited for a response．The teacher was completely at a loss for a few very long seconds．He finally gathered his wits and asked Little Johnny how he knew this．

And Little Johnny said，“Well... every morning，my father gets up，bangs on the bathroom door，and yells，‘Jesus Christ，are you still in there？’”

耶稣在卫生间里

在一所主日学校里（指星期日对儿童进行宗教教育的学校），因为每年圣诞节都强调是上帝的生日，老师担心那些学龄前的孩子们搞不清楚他到底是谁。老师希望孩子们都要明白上帝的诞生和成长都是很久很久以前的事了。他问学生：“今天上帝在什么地方？”

史蒂文举手回答道：“他在天堂里。”

老师让玛丽回答，她回答道：“他在我心里。”

小约翰拼命地摇着手，不假思索地说道：“我知道！我知道！他在我们家的卫生间里！！！”

整个教室一片寂静，学生们都望着老师，等他做出回答。老师一下子懵了，过了好久，才回过神来，问小约翰他是怎么知道的。

小约翰说：“是这样的……每天早晨我爸爸起来，就敲着卫生间的门，大叫道：‘上帝啊，你还在里面？’”
