CLEAN
JOKES BACK
In the Light
Three pastors and their wives were car-pooling their way back from a
revival when suddenly their van slid off the side of a cliff. Sadly, they were all killed.
At the Pearly Gates, Peter called the first couple forward.
Looking through his book, Peter looked up at the first preacher
sharply, "You hypocrit!" he boomed, "All you ever cared about in your life
was money! 'Money is evil' 'Money won't buy you happiness!' 'Money THIS...' 'Money
THAT...'. Yet you've hoarded money all your life! You were the wealthiest person in your
whole community. In fact, you were so consumed with money that you married a woman named
'Penny,' isn't that so?" he demanded. Obviously shaken, the preacher meekly
responded, "Y-yes, Sir, That's true..."
"Well, you DID preach the gospel, so I won't send you off to
you-know-where, but you DON'T get to come in the FRONT gate. You have to walk all the way
AROUND heaven and enter in the BACK door. Off you go!"
And the couple went shamefully on their way.
St. Peter leered at the next pastor, "And YOU!" Peter
hissed. "All YOU ever talked and cared about was ALCOHOL! 'The bottle THIS...' and
'The bottle THAT...' Yet, you've been drunk nearly EVERY time you preached. In fact, you
were so consumed with alcohol and drinking that you married a woman named 'Brandy', ISN'T
THAT SO!!?" he accused. The pastor only nodded in shame.
"Well, you, too preached a powerful sermon -- despite being
drunk -- so no hell for you either. But YOU don't get to come in the FRONT gate, either.
You have to walk all the way AROUND heaven and enter in the BACK door. Off with you!"
And the couple slowly shuffled off.
"And YOU!!..." St. Peter began.
The third Pastor held up his hand to silence St. Peter and turned to
his wife and said, "We'd better start walkin', Fanny." |
