Write down things you've done that should grant you the prize of immortal life?

Nelson Boils:
Thanks for sharing Dave.

I'm not so concerned with 'making the team' since learning the truth. Some (many) will be compiling resumes a hell of a lot more impressive than mine and yet Christ will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you'.

So if having an outstanding resume is what qualifies us then I may very well be screwed! Lol! After all I've never cast out a demon or preformed any miracles.. That's ok though. I've come to accept the fact that I may have to burn for a bit before entering His Kingdom.. And if I do find myself in the fire after I'm raised from the first death then I will at least know it's for a good purpose and at the hands of a loving father who is perfecting me. But when all is accomplished we will ALL be in the Kingdom and we'll all be on the same 'team'.

Matt 7:22

22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

Mike Gagne:
Hi Nelson. There is nothing we do, it is all of God through Christ Jesus.
 
     1Co 1:26  For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
1Co 1:27  But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
1Co 1:28  And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

God has Chosen!

And if i get to sure of my self I always remember,

7  For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

1Co 10:12  Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall

Nelson I think that audio that your talking about has all this in there as well!

Nelson Boils:
At least you are hated,Dave,it's a good sign that you are MAKING the team,you are BEING counted worthy for the kingdom.Reminds me of the apostles when they rejoiced over their persecution.I've not YET been put in a situation where I'm hated by all men or one type of man for doing right.I get a couple Christians who just think i'm lost with my new found knowledge,they just disagree with me,but I wouldn't say they hate me.Guess I got a long way to go.But,when I read Ray's e-mails,I tend to think these detractors really really hate Ray.Some stuff they say to him is unbelievable.

Have to say though,that audio of Ray stings hey?The question he asks really makes one think about doing the right things.Even that audio(Yetcarnal) where he tells the audience they don't contribute financially to a course that has changed their lives, stings too.

Thanks for that bit of testomony Dave.

If there is no persecution,no hatred from outsiders for doing the right things,it's clear that one is not making the team or playing according to the rules.

Mike Gagne:
Ok Nelson, maybe I misunderstood your question. Heres your question,

Write a couple of things that you have done or gone through that should grant you a place in the Kingdom?Of course the road is not yet done,but I'm interested to hear what has changed since the conference,even to those who were not at the conference but have had the truth for a minute(long time).It would be good to hear something that is unheard of,than the usuals, like:


Ok let me say this, I have been accountable and have judged my self on all kinds of matters. Before conversion I was not able to do this, I was as carnal as anybody else and the carnal mind is not subject to the law of God neither indeed can be. It is Jesus who now holds me accountable and I  judge myself. I haven't done anything that God should grant me a place in His Kingdom. It is Jesus that does a work in me that causes me to become a overcomer, it is His work not mine that will grant me a place in His Kingdom.  Sure all kinds hate me for my beliefs and I have been persecuted by those I thought were real close to me because of what I now believe, but still this is the work of Jesus in my life. To write a couple things I have done or gone through that would grant me a place in His kingdom, well Nelson, Jesus holds me accountable and I judge myself.  Thats all I do,

Judge myself...
