You have probably heard it said that they aren’t any stupid questions. That is just plain wrong, there are lots of stupid questions! Awhile back I was experimenting with different granola recipes, trying to get the calories down while still liking it. I was brainstorming with Meghan about it and I wondered if there was crisped rice that I could buy. She laughed like I was joking but when she saw that I was serious she laughed even harder and said there are, they are called rice krispies. My question was a stupid question.
Meghan once had a friend who was trying to find a place to park her car and found a spot, but it had a sign over it saying, “no semi parking”. She stared at that sign for a long time and asked, “how can you half park”? That was a stupid question.
Lots of questions are stupid questions. The thing is, if you don’t know the answer, it is not stupid to ask stupid questions. The jailer in our text asks a really stupid question, but it was the smartest thing he ever asked. “What must I do to be saved?” (rest of sermon is found on sermon page)
