She 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 to Heaven?"
"NO!", the children answered in unison.
She asked, "If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything neat and tidy, would that get me to Heaven?"
Again, the answer was a resounding, "NO!"
By now, the teacher was starting to smile as she observed her young pupils. This was fun!
"Well then," she continued, "if I was kind to animals and gave candy to all the children, and loved my husband, would that get me to Heaven?"
Once again, they all answered, "NO!"
The teacher was just bursting with pride for them. She asked, "Well then, how can I get into Heaven?"
A five year old boy in the back of the room shouted out...
"YOU GOTTA BE DEAD!"
Have a nice weekend everybody!
