Hello, i want to have your ruling about something that occured to me this week end.

Abe attacks with a random creature. Then he cast a non damage based removal on Nelson's Soulfire Grand master to which Nelson answer with a Channel Harm targeting Abe's creature. All spells resolve. Will Nelson gain life when Abe's creature will deal damage?

I ruled that as Channel Harm resolved he had lifelink, so the damages dealt to Abe's creature comme from a source with lifelink. Is this the correct ruling?

Your ruling was correct; Channel Harm had lifelink at the time it left the stack, and that Last Known Information is what is used to determine whether or not Nelson should gain life. The fact that the Grand Master has left the battlefield in the interim is irrelevant.
