We will not pray for creature comforts or little signs of God's existence:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'DANGER'
_

We will not try make others satisfy our needs or wants:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'LOVE'
_

We will not exploit our neighbours for a better lifestyle:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'JUSTICE'
_

We will not let others fight wars of greed in our name:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'PEACE'
_

We will not pursue careers just for the sake of money:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'SACRIFICE'
_

We will not ignore the consequences of siding with the outcast:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'PAIN'
_

We will not wait for voices or symbols from heaven:
WE WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM THROUGH THE DOOR MARKED 'FAITH'


WE WILL GO THROUGH THESE DOORS IN THE POWER OF THE SPIRIT,
KNOWING THAT JESUS HAS GONE THROUGH THEM ALL FIRST.
