Answer that only a child could think of. You gotto love it. (I am passing on another goody)
HOW DO YOU GET INTO HEAVEN?
I was testing the children in my Newfoundland 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 six-year-old boy shouted out, “YOU GOTTA BE DEAD FIRST”!
