How to get to Heaven
from Scotland …
I was testing children in my Glasgow Sunday school class to see if they
understood the concept of getting into heaven.
I asked them,"If I sold my
house and my
car, had a big jumble 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 garden and kept everything tidy, would
that get me into heaven?"
Again, the answer was'No!'
By now I was starting to smile.
"Well, then, if I was kind to animals and
gave sweets to all the children and
loved my husband, would that get me
into heaven?"
Again, they all answered'No!'
I was just bursting with pride for them.
I continued,"Then how can I get into heaven?"
A six year old boy shouted,
"Yuv got tae be
feckin' deed"
(Kinda brings a wee tear tae yir ee!..)
