not really a "Christian" joke, but a good clean one none the less.
A young entrepreneur was driving through the countryside.
In front of an old farm house read the sign: Horse 4 sale $500.
He pulled in and knocked on the door. An elderly man answered.
"Can I help you?" asked the old man.
"I'm here to buy your horse." exclaimed the young man.
"She's around back behind the barn." continued the older gentleman.
As the two of them rounded the corner of the barn, there lay the horse...dead and as stiff as a board.
"Perfect!" said the young man, "I'll take it"
The old farmer used his tractor to load the horse into the back of the young mans truck.
About 3 weeks went by, and the two of them crossed paths at a farmer's market.
"Say, aren't you the young lad that bought my dead horse?" asked the old farmer.
"Indeed I am!" countered the young man.
"What in Heaven's name did you do with the critter?" asked the farmer.
"Well, I raffeled it off. I sold 500 tickets at $10 each!!" said the young man grinning from ear to ear.
"Wasn't everyone mad to find out it was dead?!?" asked the farmer.
"Nope....only the guy who won, so I gave him back his money!!"

He bought a dead horse for $500, and got 500 people go buy $10 tickets to win a horse. So he got $5000. The one guy who won was unhappy because the horse was dead so he gave him back his money. So the guy who bought the dead horse made $4490.
