"And also if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules." 2 Timothy 2:5Awards are only given to winners. But they must burn through many hours of the day practicing and eating appropriately They must also abstain from all types of addictions, so that their physical health is not compromised. All this means sacrifice. Sacrifice for what? To win a gold medal and worldwide recognition.
If the momentary glory of this world requires sacrifice, imagine the eternal glory of salvation? Do you think it will be easier to attain than the glory of this world?
