How To Get To Heaven

I was testing the children





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."
