Pastoral Visit
--------------------------------
A pastor went out one Saturday to visit his church members.
At one house, it was obvious that someone was home, but
nobody came to the door even though the pastor had knocked
several times. Finally, the pastor took out his card,
wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back of it, and stuck it
in the door.
* Revelation 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, and will sup with him, and he with me.
The next day, the card turned up in the collection plate.
Below the pastor's message was the notation "Genesis 3:10":
* Genesis 3:10 -- " ...I heard Your voice in the garden, and I
was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself."
