Getting in to Heaven

"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?" I asked the children in my Sunday school class.
"NO!" the children all 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!"

"Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave candy to
all the children and loved my wife, would that get me into
heaven?" I asked them again. Once more they all answered,
"NO!"

"Well," I continued, thinking they were a good bit more
theologically sophisticated than I had given them credit for,
"then how can I get into heaven?" A five-year-old boy
shouted out, "YOU GOTTA BE DEAD!"
