With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed last week.
Larry LaPrise, the man that wrote "The Hokey Pokey" died
peacefully at the age of 93. The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin.
They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.
Shut up. You know it's funny.

Gotta remember that one! in my mind I can see it happening! On the more serious side of the question the answer is in the Bible. We are told those that have accepted Jesus Christ as their Saviour they will have eternal life in heaven or as Christ stated on the cross to one of the thieves who also died on a cross "this day you will be with me in Paradise". Now there were two thieves who were crucified with Christ, the difference between them was one was penitent (sought forgivness for his sins) and recognized Christ as the true Son of God where the other did not.Kind of represents mankind, some will believe the truth of the blble and be saved others will not. To the believer he will immediately upon death go to be with the Lord( words of Paul). To the unbeliever his soul will go to hades (place of torment ) and be separated from God until he stands before the Lord @ the Great White Throne Judgement which takes place at the end of the millenium.The decision is yours to make, the price has already been paid for your sins you just have to believe exercise your faith, repent of your sins and the Lord will give you "new Life" and it will be for eternity! say no to Christ and your eternity will be spent in hell, a place of separation from God and a place of eternal torment. I encourage you to search it out, it is the biggest decision you will ever have to make, it determines where your soul will spend eternity. Really it's a "no brainer".

Are you ready?

you will be asked by 2 angles asking you 3 question the first one is "who is your lord , 2nd whet is your religon , 3rd who is your prophet.those the very important things you must know and to answer them the right thing they are looking for." i think you are chritian so for sure you will fall,because you will be astonished and cannot answer their questions because it is not as easy as you think ,no it is so hard to answer them because the answer is too far from you to know unless you are really fathful to the right religon gods want to from you,which is ISLAM.
good luck.and just save your self from hell ,go and find the right things for you before die,i dont want you to go look for islam or christianity or jews but see the right ting gods want to from you and just go for it.
good luck

If the man knew the Lord Jesus as his Lord and savior well he is in heaven and at peace.

well at least he went to a different plane of existence after his work was completed on this plane. he will continue to gain more knowledge and wisdom and perhaps entertain others who need a laugh there.

It is appointed to man once to die, and after this, the judgment.
Your joke is funny.

if you accept Christ Jesus in this life as your Lord and Savior and ask for forgiveness of your sins you'll go to heaven ,if not you'll be forever estranged from GOD (which is you'll be in hell)
