WOLVES WEARING SPORTS CLOTHING. Young people love sports. And they’ll join up with just about anyone who gives them a ball and a field to play on. But they can become like sheep that wolves prey on. “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves” (Mt. 7:15).
The Ahmadiyya Muslims are not the only religion sponsoring sports in Belize. Rastafarians have gotten involved too. For instance, one approached me on Caye Caulker asking me to support his soccer club. He had a passion for taking kids off dangerous streets. He took pride in disciplining them with daily practices into a winning team. Also, he described the personal sacrifice and deep commitment it took to become a winning coach. And these were admirable qualities.
So far, so good for the boys. But he was seeking more than winning games. By his handout I could see he was seeking souls. The handout promoted Haile Selassie, the deceased emperor of Ethiopia, as their guide. In fact, many regard him as the Second Coming of Christ.
Sports fields as harvest fields
It promoted “livity”, the energy of their god Jah in all living things. But it didn’t mention marijuana, the Rasta “sacrament”. Yet the palm tree in the handout sure looked like a marijuana plant.
The Rasta or Muslim coaches may have begun as sheep themselves. So we can’t entirely blame them. But the wolf Satan is using them to lure boys from the sheepfold into a wolf pack. Among them we must act as wise as serpents, but gentle as doves. Or in other words, wise as wolves, but gentle as sheep. For God can turn wolves into sheep, as He did with the apostle Paul.
In conclusion, we must realize that sports fields can become great harvest fields for Christ. But other messiahs are now occupying those fields. But if we do sports with the heart of the Shepherd, they will hear the Shepherd’s voice. And find out who the true Messiah is.
