Are you ready for some FOOTBALL!!

I was thinking yesterday evening. More specifically, I was tripping on some post dinner starbucks coffee (I'm sort of like the Gremlins-don't feed me Starbucks after 6pm).

What if I got on a football team. I went to the weight room everytime the strength coach was there. I worked out like crazy, ate the right stuff, bulked up like crazy. What if I went to practice everyday, got there early, stayed late, and did all the drills. What if I took the play book home and studied backwards and forwards, knew every players assignment on ever play. What if i did this but never, I mean never, got in a game. Never played a down. Never even got in on the last play of the game when the quarterback takes a knee. I'm talking never got on the field. Would I really be a football player?

Jesus said the law was summed up in two commandments. Love his dad, and love all your neighbors. What if I memorize scripture, pay my tithe, got to church and hang out with other "non sinners" like myself everytime the door is open. Do I have to finish this to make my point?
