Enter Heaven
A minister dies and is waiting in line at the Pearly
Gates. Ahead of him is a guy who’s dressed in
sunglasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket, and jeans.
Saint Peter addresses this guy, “Who are you, so
that I may know whether or not to admit you to the
Kingdom of Heaven?”
The guy replies, “I’m Joe Cohen, taxi-driver, of Noo
Yawk City.”
Saint Peter consults his list. He smiles and says to
the taxi-driver, “Take this silken robe and golden staff
and enter the Kingdom of Heaven.”
The taxi-driver goes into Heaven with his robe and
staff, and it’s the minister’s turn. He stands erect and
booms out, “I am Joseph Snow, pastor of Saint Mary’s
for the last forty-three years.”
Saint Peter consults his list. He says to the minister,
“Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the
Kingdom of Heaven.”
“Just a minute,” says the minister. “That man was a
taxi-driver and he gets a silken robe and golden staff.
How can this be?”
“Up here, we work by results,” says Saint Peter.
“While you preached, people slept; while he drove,
people prayed.”
