Our listener asks, "Pastor Jesse,
Last Sunday, Scottie Scheffler won the
Masters. In his interviews and print
media he said ‘I just wanted to Glorify
God.’
My question is this: How does it Glorify God when a
Christian athlete wins a competition?
What if the runner up is also a
Christian, but he did not win? Does
that mean that God did not favor him
to win? Maybe he did not pray hard
enough! (sarcastic humor). I think you know what I’m trying to
get at. It’s not like the Calvinistic view
of ‘God controls everything and even
controls our destiny and actions.’
I guess it’s like a friend of mine after a
different person won a golf
tournament, and he said ‘God helped
me win.’ Upon hearing that, my friend said,
‘Does that mean that God was against
the other player?'" Thanks,
Mike
