Heaven’s Gates: A Christmas Test

On Christmas Eve, three men arrive at the pearly gates of heaven. Saint Peter challenges them and gives them a harsh look.

“To get into heaven tonight, you each need to show me something that represents Christmas.”

The first man finds a match in his pockets and strikes it. He says, “This is a Christmas candle,” grinning hopefully.

Saint Peter exclaims, “Impressive,” and gestures for him to pass.

The second man jangles a set of keys after reaching into his jacket. He smiles and says, “These are Christmas bells,”

Nodding, Saint Peter lets him go.

The third man then emerges with a pair of red underwear.

“And what on earth do these have to do with Christmas?” says Saint Peter, perplexed.

“They’re Carol’s,” the man smirks.

The following joke may make you laugh until the next year if the previous one didn’t make you laugh. It’s about memory loss, holiday hangovers, and a husband who wakes up to a Christmas surprise that he most definitely didn’t anticipate.

The Christmas Surprise of the Hungover Husband

Paul wakes up from his company’s Christmas party feeling drowsy and confused. Not only does his headache hurt, but he can hardly recall how he got home.

When he opens his eyes, he sees that his nightstand has a single red rose, two aspirin, and a glass of water. The room is immaculate, and his clothing are folded nicely. He discovers in the bathroom that his wife has placed a letter on the mirror and that he has a black eye.

“Breakfast is on the stove, darling. To get groceries for your favorite dinner today, I departed early. I cherish you.

His son is already at the table, and a hearty breakfast is waiting in the kitchen.

“What happened last night?” asks Paul’s son.

“Well, you were really inebriated, arrived home very late, and left a mess. You gave yourself that black eye when you fell over the coffee table, destroyed it, and crashed into the door.”

“Then why is everything so perfect this morning?” Paul asks, stuttering in confusion.

“Oh,” his kid shrugs, “that’s simple. You screamed, “Leave me alone!” when your mother attempted to remove your trousers. “I’m married!”

Let’s continue with Christmas wishes that have a military theme. Particularly when you’re stationed far from home, sometimes you don’t get precisely what you asked for. Anyone who understands the hardships of living in uniform over the holidays should read this.

The Christmas Wish of the Soldier

In the mess hall, two soldiers are discussing their experiences of previous Christmases.

“I’ll never forget that one Christmas,” declares the first soldier. “I spent an entire week peeling potatoes.”

When his pal asks, “What happened?”

“Well, the sergeant asked what I wanted for Christmas,” he says.

“And what did you ask for?”

“A new sergeant,” responds the first soldier.

Are you prepared for a divinely inspired joke? In the following tale, a monk who had been copying old books for years discovers a small error that could make all the difference. It serves as a reminder that even the most sacred chores can have a humorous twist!

The Misprint of the Monastic

David, a monk, had been manually copying old religious writings for years. He put a lot of effort into his career and committed himself to keeping his promises to be celibate, obedient, and to let go of material goods.

David was given the responsibility of confirming that the original manuscripts had been accurately copied and translated, word for word, by the head abbot one day just before Christmas.

David was not to be seen on Christmas Day. The head abbot eventually found him, sobbing furiously, in the archives.

The abbot said, “Brother David, what’s wrong?”

“All this time… we’ve been copying it wrong,” David cried.

“Copying what wrong?” challenged the abbot.

“The word wasn’t ‘celibate’… it was ‘celebrate’!”

The following joke proves that family drama isn’t always what it seems, even if you thought the last one was divine.

The Breakup of the Holiday Season

A father in Brisbane contacts his son in Sydney the day before Christmas.

“I apologize for interrupting your vacation, but your mother and I are divorcing,” the father explains. I simply can’t stand it any longer.”

The son shouts in shock, “What? No, wait until I arrive before doing anything! I’m going to phone my sister.

Shortly after, the daughter calls her father in a rage. “Your divorce is not happening! Tomorrow, my brother and I will be there. Don’t take any action!”

After hanging up, the father turns to face his wife.

With a broad smile, he informs her, “Well, that takes care of our Christmas plans. The children are in route, and they are covering their own travel costs.”

Let’s tell a small story about early Christmas shopping to keep the laughter going. You know how it feels to be a little too excited to open your presents? This next joke, however, demonstrates that timing is everything, especially when it comes to taking advantage of those Christmas sales sooner than anticipated.

The Early Christmas Purchaser

During Christmas, a man is put on trial. “Mr. Jones, what exactly are you accused of doing?” the court asks the defendant.

“Your honor, I was just doing my Christmas shopping early,” the man naively explains.

The judge responds, “There’s nothing illegal about that,” “What time did you start?”

“Before the store opened.”

It’s time to head to the airport, where holiday spirit and travel anxiety may coexist harmoniously. This next joke may make you reconsider packing for the holiday season, even if you’re not a lover of mistletoe.

Mistletoe Accident at the Airport

As Dave waited at the airport shortly before Christmas, he was not in the mood for the holidays. There was mistletoe dangling over the luggage scale, he saw.

The airline attendant was annoyed and said, “Even if we were dating, I wouldn’t kiss you under such tacky mistletoe.”

“That mistletoe isn’t for you to kiss me,” the attendant said with a sly smile. It’s there so you may bid your luggage farewell with a kiss.

Keep your Santa hats on because the next joke involves a child who uses a very “creative” method to fulfill his Christmas dreams.

This boy is a master of negotiating when it comes to penning letters to Santa (or Jesus).

The Children’s Christmas Deal

A young boy begins to write a letter to Santa for Christmas, but his mother stops him.

She chastises, “You’ve been so naughty this year,” “You’d better write that letter to Jesus instead.”

After giving it some thought, he starts writing to Jesus but soon discovers that he cannot pretend to be good. He finds a nativity scene while out on a walk to decompress.

Abruptly, he grabs the Mary statue.

He writes, “Dear Jesus, if you ever want to see your mother again…” as he heads back home.

Our following joke demonstrates how biblical justifications can occasionally go hilariously awry, from a mischievous child to a quick-witted teen.

It’s the quintessential example of attempting to outsmart a parent and discovering an unexpected lesson.

Long Hair, Unconcerned

Danny asks his father, a pastor, whether he can get him a car for Christmas after he has studied the Bible carefully and aced his examinations.

According to his father, “You’ve done great with your studies,” “But I’m disappointed you haven’t cut your hair.”

Danny grinned. “Dad, in the Bible, I noticed that Jesus, Moses, and Samson all had long hair.”

“Yes, but did you also notice they walked everywhere?” his father asks, nodding.

Let’s finish on a positive note by talking about a husband who is going to get a surprise of his own while shopping for Christmas.

He gets a reality check that will make you laugh aloud just as he believes he’s discovered a touching moment.+

The Christmas Misunderstanding of the Husband

On Christmas Eve, a husband discovers he has lost his wife as they are shopping at a mall. He phones her in a panic.

“Honey,” she adds coolly, “do you recall the jewelry store five years ago where you spotted that pricey watch you fell in love with? The one that I promised to get you someday?”

“Well,” she says, “I’m in the lingerie store next to it.”
