How Do I Get Into 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 six-year-old boy shouted out, "YOU GOTTA BE DEAD!”
