Champion Syndrome

Matthew 19:16

16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

⁃ Victories

⁃ Success

⁃ Achievements

⁃ Wealth

Seem to be the false confidences that many have obtained and many more seek after…

⁃ The ghost that only appears for a moment

⁃ The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

⁃ The wavering Mirage in the desert

Finding Eternal Life Starts with Finding Christ…

Eternal Life is just the Reward!

Being a Champion is a design for Failure…

Much like the mighty captain-Naaman who disdained the Humbling act of obedience, washing in the muddy Jordan

When he was a Champion…

It’s not who or what you conquer,

But rather what you are willing to sacrifice in obedience…

God is not looking for great human feats of grander

But rather humble acts of obedience…

The (Champion Syndrome) caused this young ruler to walk away sorrowfully…

Will you walk away from Christ also?
