笑話原文：
A banker approaches the Pearly Gates(天國(guó)之門) sweating and struggling with a heavy suitcase. Saint Peter(圣彼得) greets him and says, "Set the suitcase down and come in."
"No way!" barks the banker. "I have to bring it in."

"What could possibly be in there that's so important?" ask Peter.
The banker opens the suitcase to reveal 50 gold bricks. Peter's jaw drops: "You brought pavement?"
Pearly Gates(天國(guó)之門) ：in Christian beliefs, is an informal name for the gateway to Heaven, inspired by the description of the New Jerusalem in Book of Revelation 21:21— The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate being made from a single pearl.
This article is from FanE.cn
The image of the gates in popular culture is a set of large, white or wrought-iron gates in the clouds, guarded by Saint Peter (the keeper of the "keys to the kingdom"); those not fit to enter heaven are denied entrance at the gates, and thus descend into Hell.

圣彼得（Saint Peter）是耶穌十二門徒之一，也是耶穌第一個(gè)選的門徒，圣彼得手上掌握著兩把打開(kāi)天國(guó)之門的鑰匙。
