Some timely biblical thoughts with the Olympics going on now: The Bible doesn’t mention baseball, basketball, or football, but God has something explicit to say about the Olympics. Paul, explains John Piper, took the well-known Olympics and taught the Christians to transpose them into a different level, and to see in the Games a reality very different than everyone else is seeing. I want you to transpose the temporary struggles and triumphs of the Olympic Games onto a different level of reality — the level of spiritual life and eternity and God.
