A Redneck Christmas

In a small Texas town there was a "Nativity Scene" that showed great skill and talent had gone into creating it. But one small feature bothered me: the three wise men were wearing firemen's helmets. Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left.At a "Quik Stop" on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter about the helmets. She exploded into a rage, yelling at me, "You darn Yankees never read your Bibles!"I assured her that I did, but simply couldn't recall anything about firemen in the Bible.

She jerked her Bible from behind the counter and riffled through some pages, and finally jabbed her finger at a passage. Sticking it in my face she said, "See, it says right here, 'The three wise men came from afar.'"

Heres a good one....

While out visiting his parishioners one Saturday afternoon, a pastor knocked on the door of a church member but got no response.
He was quite annoyed because he could hear footsteps and knew that the mother of the family must be there.
Leaving his calling card, the minister wrote the following: "Rev 3:20. Behold, I stand at the door and knock; If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him."
On Sunday as the parishioners filed out of church after the service, the woman who had refused to answer the door greeted the pastor and handed him HER card with
"Gen 3:10" written on it.
Later, the minister looked it up and read:
"I heard thy voice in the garden, and was afraid because I was naked, and I hid myself.
