"If I sold my house and my car， had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the poor， would I get into heaven?" I asked the children in my Sunday school class.

"No!" the children all answered.

"If I cleaned the church everyday， mowed the yard， and kept everything neat and tidy， would I get into heaven?"

Again， the answer was， "No!"

"Well， " I continued， "then how can I get into heaven?"

A five-year-old boy shouted out， "You gotta be dead!"

“如果我把房子和车卖了，在车库举行义卖， 并把所有的钱给穷人，我能进天堂吗？”

我问主日学校的孩子。

孩子们齐声回答：“不能！”

“那如果我每天都打扫教堂，给院子的草坪割草，并且把东西都收拾得干净整洁，我会上天堂吗？”

回答还是：“不能！”

“好吧， ”我继续问， “那我要怎样才能升天堂呢？”

一个五岁的男孩儿叫道：“你得死了才行！”
