I thought this is appropriate:

What Bible Means...

A father was approached by his small son, who told him proudly. "I know
What the Bible means!"

His father smiled and replied, "What do you mean, you 'know' what the
Bible
means?"

The son replied, "I do know!"

"Okay," said his father. "So, son, what does the Bible mean."

"That's easy, Daddy... It stands for 'Basic Instructions Before Leaving
Earth."

Leave it to a child to figure it out.
