10 Commandments Skit: #9 Flying Bananas

Flying Bananas   Commandment # 9

Special thanks to Wesley Edie, Family Life Pastor at Parklawn Assembly of God for sharing his 10 Commandments skit series with us.

 

Leader: Alright everyone another exciting commandment today.

 

Maggie:  Yeah, so glad I never have struggled with this commandment.

 

Leader: Oh really Maggie? Never?

 

Maggie : Yep, that’s right never ever have struggled with this one.

 

Leader : What is the Ninth commandment?

 

Maggie: Oh, um, well, let’s see…

 

Leader: Kind of thought you might not remember.

 

Maggie: Wait, I know. Thou Shall not do shall thou shall not will not ever ever ever shall not throw bananas at anyone ever, especially in church!

 

Leader: Definitely not Maggie. The 9th commandment is thou shall not lie, and actually it says, that you shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.

 

Maggie: So I can throw bananas in church! Alright then!!

 

Leader : No you can’t. (turns away to not really see who threw the banana and then stops midsentence)

 

Maggie:  Bananas yeah!! (throws the banana at the leader, either missing or hitting)

 

Leader:  Maggie no! You aren’t supposed to throw bananas at people and especially not at church.

 

Maggie: Um, I didn’t do that.

 

Leader: Who was it then, your imaginary friend?

 

Maggie: No, I think it was the salad lady. You know the lady who always tries to get me to eat vegetables and fruit.

 

Leader: Maggie, you are lying now. This is exactly what we are talking about in today’s commandment.

 

Maggie:  Salad ladies who throw bananas?

 

Leader:  No, I’m talking about the fact that you lied.

 

Maggie: Oh, I guess I did. I knew you were mad about me throwing the banana and I figured if you didn’t think it was me maybe I would stay out of trouble.

 

Leader: Yep, that’s how most people start out lying.

 

Maggie: By throwing bananas?

 

Leader: By people trying to stay out of trouble or trying to cover something up.

 

Maggie: I didn’t try to cover something up though… I threw something. There is a difference.

 

Leader: Oh Maggie, I think your confusing yourself even right now.

 

Maggie: I am?

Leader: Yes!

 

Maggie: No more flying bananas!  Bad banana!

 

Leader:  I think it’s time to hear the lesson.

 

Maggie: Ok. I promise I won’t throw anymore bananas, or strawberries, peach’s, apples, pineapples, or even Kiwi’s.

 

Leader: We get the point!

 

Maggie: Alright no more flying fruit and no talk of salad ladies either, later. Chow baby!

 

Leader: Chow baby. I’m still keeping my eye open just in case.
