A minister dies and is waiting in line at the Pearly Gates.Ahead of him is a 
guy who's dressed in sunglasses, a loudshirt, leather jacket, and jeans. Saint 
Peter addresses thisguy:"Who are you, so that I may know whether or not to 
admityou to the Kingdom of Heaven?"The guy replies:"I'm Joe Cohen, taxi 
driver, of Noo Yawk City."St. Peter consults his list. He smiles and says to 
the taxidriver, "Take this silken robe and golden staff and enterthe Kingdom of 
Heaven."The taxi driver goes into Heaven withhis robe and staff, and it's the 
minister's turn.   

The minister stands erect and booms out, "I am Joseph Snow,Pastor of 
Calvary Church for the last forty-three years."St. Peter consults his list.He 
says to the minister, "Takethis cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the 
Kingdomof Heaven.""Just a minute," says the minister."That man was a 
taxidriver, and he gets a silken robe and golden staff.Howcan this be?" "Up 
here, we work by results," says Saint Peter.  "While you preached, people 
slept; while he drove, people prayed."
