[Jokequeen] How to get into Heaven

[Collette Darden <csdarden@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

> I was testing the children in my Sunday school class to see if they 
> understood the concept of getting to heaven.
> I asked them, "If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and 
> gave all my money to the church,
> Would that get me into Heaven?"
> "NO!" the children answered.
> "If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything 
> neat and tidy, would that get me into Heaven?"
> Again, the answer was, "NO!"
> By now I was starting to smile. Hey, this was fun! "Well, then, if I was 
> kind to animals and gave candy to all the children, and loved my husband, 
> would that get me into Heaven?" I asked them again.
> Again, they all answered, "NO!"
> I was just bursting with pride for them.  Well, I continued, "then how can 
> I get into Heaven?"
> A five-year-old boy shouted out,
> "YOU GOTTA BE DEAD."
