The Comic Strip That Has A Finale Every Day by John "Scully" Scully for April 15, 2022

Just found — Lost Scriptures from the Book of Paul.

It is Good Friday and there are multitudes of people gathered around Mt. Calvary wailing, worshiping, and witnessing the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, now nailed to the cross atop this hill for all to see. Jesus cries out, “Paul…Paul… Paaaulll..” Paul hears this and to prove he is a good disciple works his way through the crowds to heed the call and serve his lord. Nearing the top the guards stop him and ask why he is there. Paul says, “I am a good disciple, my lord is calling me, I must serve my lord.” The guards laugh, grab him, beat him, and take him to the back of the crowds.

“Paaaul… Paauullll”… Paul gets up brushing himself off and faithfully works through the crowds again. The guards again ask his purpose. Paul says, “Do you not hear the lord calling my name? I must serve him… let me through !” The guards again grab him and beat him. Then taking him to the far back they break his legs and leave him.

“Paaauullllllll….. Paaauuuullllllll” continues non-stop! Paul is determined to serve his lord. He drags his crippled torso over the rocky terrain on bloody knuckles through the amassed multitudes. Near the top Paul crawls between the guards unseen. He reaches the cross nearly dead and replies, “It is Paul, your faithful disciple, how may I serve you my lord and master?”

Jesus cries out, “I can see your house from up here!”
