What if God asks you, "Why should I let you enter My Kingdom?"

I would say ' Don't tell me I've wasted all that time praying to you!' haha It would come as a real shock if most believers were rejected.

Indeed, many will be red-faced during that day! If we can buy our way going to heaven through prayers or good works for that matter, then Jesus Christ need not die on the cross. What good will His sacrifice do if we can go to heaven by just being good or by praying our hearts out? The Word of God says, all our righteousness are just filthy rugs in the sight of God. God is Holy and we are sinful and God hates sin but he loves the sinners. No amount of goodness or prayer can save us from our sins. Only the blood of Jesus can. That's why it is important that we go to God through Jesus. He said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father but by Me." Futhermore, the Word of God says, it is by grace that you have been saved through faith, it is not of yourselves, it is the gift of God. Not through your own good works, unless you boast and tell God, "Hey, I deseve to be here, don't tell me I've wasted all that time praying to you!" Isn't that being proud?

I wonder if God will only let those in who have a sense of humour?

First I'd ask, "How can you possibly exist. Aren't you, and heaven, like physically impossible?" Then I'd probably say, "Yeah.. uhh.. can you forgive for not believing in you? I used only the logic you gave me, sir." Heh, I can't imagine what we atheists would go through if these supernatural deity was to exist. :P

I really do not think he will ask. He is all knowing, and he would never bring someone to his kingdom unless they will be let in. You can't talk your way in.
