How do I get to heaven?

"How do I get to heaven?"








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.'


gotta love kids.. ;D ;D ;D
