    A story is told of an event that took place in the villages of northern India where a missionary was preaching in a marketplace.
    As he finished, a Muslim gentleman came up and said, “You must concede we have one thing you have not, and it is better than anything you have.”
    The missionary smiled and said, “I would like to hear what it is.”
    The Muslim said, “You know when we go to Mecca we at least find a coffin. But when you Christians go to Jerusalem, which is your Mecca, all you have is an empty grave.”
