Pastor vs Driver

There was a long line of souls before the gate of Heaven and Hell. Waiting on line beside each other were two residents of Lagos city, a 'Danfo' (bus) driver and a pastor and they started chatting to kill the time.

Finally, it was the bus driver's turn to be judged; after talking with God for a few minutes, he was allowed to enter heaven. The pastor came after him and had his few minutes with God. He, however, was sent to hell.

Needless to say, the pastor was pretty surprised by this turn of events and asked God why he, who had constantly talked to people about God, had been sent to hell and a bus driver was going to heaven. God replied, We judge whether one goes to heaven not by the words he has said but the deeds he has done on the earth. While you talked about God, people slept, but they all remembered me when the bus driver drove."

No one will enter God's kingdom unless they have good deeds!
