Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 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 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, from da Bronx. " Saint consults his list. He smiles and says to the taxi-driver, " Take this silken robe and golden staff and enter into the Kingdom. " The taxi-driver goes into Heaven with his robe and staff. Next, it's the minister's turn. He stands erect and booms out, " I am ph Snow, pastor of New Covenant Tabernacle for the last 37 years. " Saint consults his list. He says to the minister, " Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter into the Kingdom. " " 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 ... " While you preached, people slept; while he drove, people prayed. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
