HEAVEN

[vindicated]

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!'

Hilarious!

I was reading wondering what the answer was lol
