Points
by: Author Unknown, Source Unknown
A man dies
and goes to heaven. Of course, St. Peter meets him at
the pearly gates. St. Peter says, "Here's how it works.
You need 100 points to make it into heaven.You tell me
all the good things you've done, and I give you a
certain number of points for each item, depending on how
good it was. When you reach 100 points, you get in."
"Okay," the
man says, "I was married to the same woman for 50 years
and never cheated on her, even in my heart."
"That's
wonderful," says St. Peter, "that's worth three points!"
"Three points?" he says. "Well, I attended church all my
life and supported its ministry with my tithe and
service."
"Terrific!"
says St. Peter, "that's certainly worth a point." "One
point? Golly. How about this: I started a soup kitchen
in my city and worked in a shelter for homeless
veterans."
"Fantastic,
that's good for two more points," he says. "TWO
POINTS!!" the man cries, "At this rate the only way I
get into heaven is by the grace of God!"
"That's
right!, Now you have got it!" said St. Peter.
