When The Devil Came To Church

On one bright and beautiful Sunday morning, the church-going residents in this sub-urban town got up early and went to the local church. Before the service started, members of the congregation were sitting in their pews and chattering away about their lives, their families and business.

Suddenly, the Devil appeared right in front of the congregation. This caused a stampede, as everyone started screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling on each other in a frantic effort to get away from the perceived evil incarnate in person.
Soon enough, almost everyone seemed to have been evacuated from the church, but for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew, not moving, seemingly oblivious to the fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence.

Now, this confused the Devil a bit. So, the Devil walked up to the man and asked, "Don't you know who I am?"
The man calmly replied, "Yep, I sure do."

"Why aren't you afraid of me, like everyone else?"  The Devil further asked.
"I have been married to your sister for more years, than I care to remember." The man calmly replied.
