Some professing Christians take umbrage with my statement advocating boycotting NCAA sports. I made my statement because the NCAA “trannycotted” and bullied North Carolina into repealing “The Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act” (H.B.2). Let’s be honest. Either we are slaves of sin or slaves of righteousness (Romans 6:15-23). Being a slave of righteousness is genuine Christianity.

That stated, it follows that there must be a redline, a point beyond which genuine Christians will not tolerate, associate with, or support a person or entity. Sadly, for the great majority of professing Christians there is no such redline. In spite of abundant and clear data with repeated warnings, they do what their flesh dictates. Then they insist that they are just as much Christians as anyone.

For such people there are no exists standards for Christianity except professing that you are one. Perhaps maybe they just pick and choose standards. If they don’t like an activity anyway, they oppose it and make themselves look as if they really stand for something.

Genuine Christians uphold righteousness. Therefore, I believe they should boycott NCAA sports. However, many professing Christians insist that watching NCAA sports is just harmless entertainment. Let’s look through a “hole in the wall” for a response (Ezekiel 8:6-12).

The NCAA has a section on their site entitled “fairness and integrity.” They opposed H.B.2 with the statement that they wished to “assure a safe, healthy, discrimination free atmosphere for all those watching and participating in our events.” However, at the bottom of NCAA.org home page is a link to NCAA.com.

Dear Church Person;

I have heard people say that Halloween evening is the time when the Devil is most active. It presents the view that Satan is less active when society is not honoring demons, goblins, witches, or zombies.   Have you ever wondered what he does on Sunday? I mean, since most professing Christians are religious on that day, it stands to reason that he may take a break from his wickedness. Or does he slum in his pajamas, lounge on a sofa, surf TV channels, and yawn with boredom while waiting for Christians to get home from the restaurants?

I believe that Sunday is the most satanically active day of the week. It is historically infamous as “the morning after.” It is hangover day, a holiday for sinners, the day millions of people wake up in bed with a stranger after a night of riotous revelry. It is their Funday, Sinday, Slumday, and Vainday. People head to the lake, the beach, mountains, flea markets, golf courses, ballparks, with no thought of God.

Sunday is when most heresy is spewed and the most people are listening. It is the day when the majority of professing Christians have their false spiritual status confirmed. It is the day when sugar-high, caffeinated, “seekers”, “emergent”, and clueless millennials, find their “groove.”

Sunday is the day when seed-collectors gather by the millions. Their “wayside, stony, and thorny” spirits open like a baby bird’s mouth. WST professing Christians intend to lose every seed. Some will lose it all before they leave the church building. Other ones will leak it all out before committing Sunday lunch gluttony or gradually by indulging in hours of sports.

Have you checked your “faith gauge” lately? Perhaps not if we have not experience a challenge to our faith. God provides the gauge. It’s called “trial.”

A pastor friend who is now deceased pastored a church that was always in conflict. He eventually brought order to the church and it began to grow spiritually and numerically. He once told me how he tested candidates for deacon. If they didn’t pass the test, he made certain that they were never voted on.
