Attitudes and Activities as Afterlife Determinants
The Quadrant of True Christianity
The Realm of Agape love is made possible by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and the willingness to die to self. True humility abides, and efforts are done as a result of such. Marked by faith, suffering, humility, and love, which is the fruit of the Spirit. Low self-esteemed prisoners of their own flesh. Weak in faith, so weak in love. God is present in their minds but has no reign over their hearts and hands. Shame and guilt run their existences. Little fruit.
Outside the Kingdom
Godless humanists do great works for others and the world but take great personal pride in their accomplishments, giving no glory to their maker. Randian. “They have their reward.” Materialists. Proud willful haters of God and Man; evildoers bent on causing pain. Lovers of dark; inflictors of misery.

Axis of Actions
X Axis of Attitude: Neither proud nor Godly. They do their duty. They do what is expected, neither taking much credit nor looking to God to give credit. XX Axis of Actions: Those who do their work honestly; who meet the expectations of God for human beings – nothing more, nothing less. The cook, the cabinet maker, the captain, the doctor.
The Christian Goal
Teacher, the manufacturer. These live “good lives,” are lukewarm in existence doing neither evil nor good – just what is expected. The further north a person goes, the more they are driven by Him; the further south, the more they are driven by themselves. The further west a person is the more destruction (selfish acts of harm) they exhibit; the further east they go the more selfless acts of agape love. (Constructive actions).
