I am a fan of the Seattle Seahawks. Do you know what fan is short for?
Fanatic, meaning “a person with wildly excessive or irrational devotion, dedication, or enthusiasm.”
That’s right. I support a team with extreme and uncritical zeal that has never won a Super Bowl. Talking to a friend about this, the comparison came up. Is faith in God just an unreasonable dream of one day winning?
57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 1 Cor. 15:57-58
Oh yeah! That’s right. Our enthusiasm and devotion to Christ is founded in victory.
Therefore, stand firm in your faith.
Winning,
Adam
