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 f*#kin' deed"Kinda brings a wee tear tae yir een...
Absolutely loved it Vic
I'm sure the kid must have been related to Billy Connolly somehow Bryan
Why didn't I think that?
