PROFESSIONAL SPORTS AND WORSHIP

compiled by Michael Jeshurun

‘Professional Sports’ be it Boxing, Football, Soccer, Cricket or whatever – is an ABOMINATION TO GOD! And you CANNOT take something which God hates and clean it up to ‘give Him glory’! Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh! When you see someone bragging about Floyd Mayweather, Lionel Messi or Tiger Woods etc you have to wonder WHO truly is their God.

In the social world, marital infidelity abounds on every hand, the sacred bonds of wedlock being broken with as little regard as the discarding of an old garment. In the ecclesiastical realm, thousands who have solemnly covenanted to preach the truth make no scruple to attack and deny it. Nor can reader or writer claim complete immunity from this fearful sin: in how many ways have we been unfaithful to Christ, and to the light and privileges which God has entrusted to us! How refreshing, then, how unspeakably blessed, to lift our eyes above this scene of ruin, and behold One who is faithful, faithful in all things, faithful at…

I want to make a bite size witty ditty to make a point memorable.

For Christians the Bible should be important since it is God’s Word.

Christians should have two proper relationship to the Bible.  What are they?

Here’s a little rhyme to drive the point home:
