I'm not talking about using "heaven" standards... that's too easy!
144,000 first place winners?
No way.
1 prize. First place only.
contestants must be living and mortal.
I think I've got a shot at it.
Anyone else think that you're up for the competition.
OH! and no acting modest to try to sound meek & Christlike that way.
"oh, no I'm not worthy" doesn't score you points in this competition. You're either in or out.
Who can out-christ me?

For the contest to be really interesting, let's have people NOMINATED for the competition, instead of entering it themselves. That eliminates pride.
If we could get everybody on the planet to play the game, though, wouldn't the planet turn out so much the better? Just think of it: people rushing over each other to feed 20,000 people every day for free, and trying to find poor people to give them a hand up, medical students stampeding to a bunch of 3rd world countries with free medical care, an end of warfare because all of the metal for guns and bombs gets turned into farming implements.
Wouldn't that just be great? Let's turn it into a reality TV series, that will get the world to watch and think!

Here are examples of two competitions. Which race will you be in?
I'm in.
Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. 1st Cornithians 9:24-27 KJV HOLY BIBLE

Actually, that contest has been going on for the last 2000 years.
The jury is still out.

Christ is the Messenger of God; He is not a stupid man like you and me.
If you didn't learn to show absolute respect to the divine Educator, you would never get out of your miserable condition and falsely blame the world for its unjustice.

I could never hope to approach the level of arrogance that you have already achieved. But then, inflated ego is hardly Christlike. You loose.

That's fine, except we don't know much about Jesus at all, except what was written decades after he died. We don't know if he existed at all.
Perhaps the winner would be someone that nobody knows anything about, but who's name appears in some popular book somewhere.

What would be the point. No one could ever be sinless or even come close!
Just follow God's will and his commandments. What is the competition for. Do you think you will impress God???
