As the Pit Burns: It's Just Not Fair! · Adventures: Bible Truths in Action

  Master. It's Coach Damon.
• 0:19
  Call me Coach. Sorry, Master, a coach.
• 0:23
  Guess who's on God's list of players to be treated?
• 0:26
  Wait a minute, God's never traded any of his players
• 0:30
  before? Well, he's trading one now.
• 0:33
  Guess who it is? Oh, I know Peter.
• 0:37
  He goaltends too much. He's always got his hand in the
• 0:40
  net. No, not Peter.
• 0:43
  Is it Judas? He's a ball hog and he likes to
• 0:47
  hang on the rim. No, it's JC.
• 0:52
  You know, the one that's been blocking every shot of sickness
• 0:55
  and disease. We shoot and slam, dunking sin
• 0:58
  left and right. But he's God's son, why would
• 1:02
  God trade him? It sounds like a little family
• 1:07
  feud going on here. We'd better move fast before God
• 1:12
  changes his mind. It's not like God to hold
• 1:15
  grudges. Listen, Damon, I don't care what
• 1:17
  it takes. I want JC on my team.
• 1:20
  He's good. With him on our side, the
• 1:23
  Sinners will win every championship ring from now to
• 1:26
  eternity. We'll be undefeated.
• 1:29
  Hell Sinners will be the greatest team in history.
• 1:33
  Go, Sinners. Alright coach, leave it to me.
• 1:37
  JC will be wearing a health centers uniform in no time.
• 1:41
  I'll be right back. Ohh this is great.
• 1:46
  A deal like this only happens once in a lifetime.
• 1:49
  JC in a health center's jersey. You know, I think God is really
• 1:54
  hurting. I can't believe he wants to
• 1:57
  trade JC considering he wouldn't give me John the Baptist or as I
• 2:01
  like to call him, the Dunkster. John could really dunk him but
• 2:06
  not as good as JC can. I'm back coach, break out the
• 2:15
  champagne. It's a done deal.
• 2:17
  JC is ours. Already.
• 2:20
  How did you do it so fast? God was motivated.
• 2:24
  He slapped the sin of the entire world on JC so fast and turned
• 2:28
  his back on him. God turned his back on JC.
• 2:33
  Well, you know how he feels about sin.
• 2:35
  He hates it. Let me see the contract.
• 2:40
  I, God of Heaven and Earth, hereby give my beloved son JC to
• 2:44
  play for health centers. In return, every Sinner will be
• 2:47
  eligible to play for Heaven's Saints.
• 2:49
  By believing in JC from this day forward, every player that wears
• 2:53
  a health center's uniform can now have JC as their substitute.
• 2:59
  What does that mean? I have no idea.
• 3:03
  Oh wait, there's some fine print at the bottom. 2nd Corinthians
• 3:08
  521 For God made Christ, who never sin, to be the offering
• 3:13
  for their sins, so that they could be made right with God
• 3:16
  through Christ. Do you know what this means?
• 3:19
  Does it have something to do with JC being a substitute?
• 3:24
  Exactly, Jesus just made a way for everyone to be a free agent.
• 3:32
  That's not good, is it? Not for us it's not.
• 3:36
  It's great for everyone in the whole world, but not us.
• 3:40
  And there's more. PSJC will be a free agent at the
• 3:45
  end of three days, at which time he will personally slam dunk the
• 3:48
  coach of health centers. Did you know about this part?
• 3:54
  OK, I know that three days sounds a little short, but it's
• 3:59
  the best I could do. You said do whatever it takes to
• 4:02
  get him here. I was just following your
• 4:04
  orders, Coach. When JC finishes slam dunking
• 4:07
  me, I'm going to personally dribble you on your head for the
• 4:11
  next 1000 years. Don't.
• 4:14
  You think you're overreacting a little bit, coach.
• 4:17
  You think that's overreacting? How about if I start right now?
• 4:22
  Come here. Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow?
• 4:34
  It's not fair. It's just not fair.
• 4:37
  Pretty soon the whole world will be using the name of God's Son
• 4:41
  to heal the sick and cast out my demons.
• 4:44
  I'll be out of a job. I am Lethal attorney at law at
• 4:52
  your service. Some guys will do anything for a
• 4:56
  buck. I don't want your card, Just do
• 4:59
  what I'm paying you for. Yes, Sir, Mr. Devil, what seems
• 5:03
  to be the problem? First off, for personal reasons,
• 5:07
  I do not want to use anyone's real name.
• 5:09
  The person in question today is Godson.
• 5:13
  Do you know who I'm talking about?
• 5:15
  Jesus. Don't say that name.
• 5:21
  I'm sorry, and you were saying? Well, it seems that after God's
• 5:25
  Son died on the cross, He gave His authority to all believers.
• 5:29
  Now they're going around the earth praying for sick folks in
• 5:32
  His name. My demons are getting whipped
• 5:34
  left and right. There is power in that name.
• 5:38
  And that matters to me because. Because I want to know if that
• 5:43
  is legal. Can God's Son just give his
• 5:46
  authority to other people like that?
• 5:49
  Well, let me see now, if I'm not mistaken, didn't God's son come
• 5:55
  here to hell after he died on the cross?
• 5:58
  That's right, he was my prisoner.
• 6:01
  That settled it then. If he's your prisoner, he has no
• 6:05
  authority. Legally speaking, that authority
• 6:08
  would belong to you. Well, he's not my prisoner
• 6:13
  anymore. He escaped.
• 6:15
  He escaped, well, once the prisoner, always the prisoner
• 6:20
  until the prisoner is released through the proper channels.
• 6:24
  How long ago did he escape? About 2000 years ago.
• 6:28
  Mine. That's a long time to be on a
• 6:30
  loose. Have you any idea where he's
• 6:33
  hiding out? Hiding out.
• 6:36
  Yeah, Where is he staying? Do you have any idea?
• 6:40
  Oh, I have more than an idea. He's up in heaven, sitting at
• 6:44
  the right hand of God. So God is.
• 6:47
  Harboring a criminal. That's.
• 6:49
  Very interesting. Well, he's not exactly a
• 6:54
  criminal. He's not.
• 6:56
  No. But he never sinned in his whole
• 6:58
  life. Not once.
• 7:00
  Mr. Devil, if he never thin, what was he doing here in hell?
• 7:06
  You know you can't legally hold anyone in hell unless they've
• 7:09
  committed a thin of some kind. I know the Son of God was
• 7:14
  disguised with the sin of the whole world.
• 7:16
  I had no idea he was taking everyone's punishment for sin
• 7:20
  and sickness, but that's another story.
• 7:23
  Can he give away his authority to all his believers?
• 7:28
  Well, if it's his authority, he can give it to whoever he wants.
• 7:33
  I'm afraid you don't have a case.
• 7:36
  That's it. Can't you lie about something,
• 7:39
  Make something up? If Christians have authority
• 7:42
  over you, but they never use it, what difference does it make?
• 7:47
  What are you saying? Figure out a way to get them not
• 7:51
  to use their God-given authority.
• 7:54
  Brilliant. Oh, you're not as dumb as you
• 7:58
  look. All I have to do is keep
• 8:01
  Christians from praying in the name of God's Son.
• 8:04
  I can do that. Damon, I can't see a thing with
• 8:20
  this blindfold on. That's the idea, master.
• 8:24
  Keep talking, Damon. Talking.
• 8:26
  What about? Oh, I know.
• 8:29
  Did I tell you about the blind man that got healed the other
• 8:31
  day? Gotcha.
• 8:33
  How did you find me? Did you peek?
• 8:36
  Peek that would be cheating and I didn't have to cheat because I
• 8:41
  just followed the sound of your voice.
• 8:44
  I hadn't thought of. That.
• 8:45
  So tell me, what was the point of this game?
• 8:49
  I had this idea that if we put a blindfold on everyone's mind
• 8:53
  then they wouldn't be able to see God.
• 8:56
  God's a spirit. They can't see him anyway.
• 9:00
  You're right. I mean blindfold them so they
• 9:03
  can't see the truth of God. 'S word you mean blindfold them
• 9:08
  with one of these cloth blindfolds?
• 9:11
  Yeah, we're going to need a lot of material.
• 9:14
  I'll have to take sewing lessons.
• 9:17
  It would take a while to blindfold everyone, but we could
• 9:21
  start with those disciples. We don't need to blindfold their
• 9:25
  eyes, we need to blindfold their minds.
• 9:31
  Then I'll have to go to medical school to become a surgeon, cut
• 9:35
  everyone open and put a blindfold on their brain.
• 9:39
  You're not faking, are you? You really are that dumb.
• 9:44
  I'm just trying to help. Since I'm stuck here with you, I
• 9:47
  figured I'd at least try to help a little.
• 9:50
  Look, we don't need to cut anyone open.
• 9:53
  I already have spiritual blinders on people's minds to
• 9:56
  confuse them about spiritual things.
• 9:59
  You do. Yes, look at the Pharisees.
• 10:02
  They think they are serving God and they don't even like GG the
• 10:07
  Son of God, even though he's doing all those miracles like
• 10:10
  healing the sick, opening blind eyes.
• 10:12
  Casting out demons. I don't like to think about
• 10:17
  that. So Jesus.
• 10:21
  Sorry Master, my bad. You were saying?
• 10:25
  So the Son of God came to show people that God is good, but
• 10:30
  you're blindfold keeps people from seeing that.
• 10:34
  Exactly. So how do people get saved?
• 10:38
  Well, that's the problem. Ever since GG, you, you know who
• 10:43
  gave people authority over us? They can make us take the
• 10:47
  blindfolds off. They can do that.
• 10:49
  The ones who listen to the Son of God can.
• 10:52
  That's kind of what you did. What are you talking about?
• 10:55
  When you were blindfolded, you followed the sound of my voice,
• 10:59
  and you won. So the people who follow God's
• 11:02
  voice, they win. Maybe you're not as dumb as I
• 11:06
  thought. Yeah, you did it your way and
• 11:25
  God sent you down the highway. I heard that.
• 11:32
  Busted. OK, listen to this Clint
• 11:35
  Eastwood as Jesus. Go ahead Satan, make my day.
• 11:43
  OK, OK, here's another one. Arnold.
• 11:46
  Schwarzenegger as Jesus. I'll be back.
• 11:55
  That's a good one. Jesus Satan's Terminator.
• 12:00
  Here's a good one guys. Chuck Norris as Satan.
• 12:05
  You want to hurt me, would you? That was his idea.
• 12:10
  Well, he said you wouldn't care. It's not nice to make fun of
• 12:15
  others. Even bad people know that.
• 12:20
  Oh, Damon, come here. Yes, Master.
• 12:25
  It's another red alert. You're really falling down on
• 12:28
  the job. But it's not my fault, Master.
• 12:33
  I can't keep kids from choosing to obey.
• 12:35
  God, you're supposed to steal God's word out of their hearts
• 12:40
  before they choose to obey it and become leaders.
• 12:43
  Instead, you're down here starting a comedy club.
• 12:46
  Now get up there and steal God's word from kids hearts before
• 12:50
  they set off another alarm. But master, those kids are armed
• 12:55
  and dangerous. Now they're the head and not the
• 12:58
  tail. They're.
• 12:59
  Godly leaders. All the more reason to stop.
• 13:03
  Them, but how? I don't know.
• 13:06
  If I did, I'd do it myself. I'm paying you to do my dirty
• 13:11
  work. Or perhaps you'd like to be
• 13:13
  replaced? Wow, I just had a bad idea.
• 13:18
  I thought you'd see things my way.
• 13:20
  What's your bad idea? I'll tell kids that they're
• 13:24
  average like everyone else and that they can never do anything
• 13:28
  big for God because they're not. Special.
• 13:31
  Oh, those are very bad lies. I love it.
• 13:35
  Those kids will relax and become a what do they call those?
• 13:39
  We be Christians. Yeah.
• 13:43
  Now get going. I'll be back.
• 13:50
  He does that pretty good. The comedy club.
• 13:53
  That might be a good idea. We could use a little laughter
• 13:56
  down here. After all, the Bible does say a
• 13:59
  merry heart does good like medicine.
