I realize that this type of wrestling is fake, but it is athletic in their movements and admit it guys, it is like a male version of soap operas. The continuing story lines keeps us hooked. It kept me hooked. I was only interested in the wrestling and the amazing leaps and jumps, and stunts required to pull of these moves, but their are parts I would just turn away from or the channel for that matter. Wait for it to pass and continue viewing.
But this Saturday evening, after not having watched this WWE for some time. I do not have cable and the basic channel I was watching from no longer carried the show, I stopped watching. But this Saturday I watched the Main Event and was stunned at what I heard and saw. The man on my left said something that rocked me to my socks. He dared called himself the "King of Kings" and he said it more than once. I cannot begin to tell how much my spirit grieved over hearing this. Jesus Christ is the only Kings of Kings. Not some beefed up wrestler who is definitely not the King of Kings. I also know that this WWE enjoys pushing the envelope, but if they were to look at the recent deaths of some of their popular wrestlers, they would see at what cost they are paying to push those envelopes. Drugs and debauchery are rampant in Entertainment Wrestling - all for the mighty buck.
I am saddened also that these guys are willing to blaspheme in order to make more money. That they would promote evil and lies to pursue the mighty dollar. Jesus is the King of Kings, Jesus is the Lord of Lords and I will not support his name being mocked in the name of entertainment. I will pray for these men to receive Christ into their lives.
I pray that the Lord will use men like Steve Borden (a.k.a. "Sting") to reach Wrestlers who are need the power of the Gospel in their lives.
Please pray that Steve will receive the power and blessing of the Holy Spirit to reach these men and women.
