Well the 2010 Olympic games have come and gone. Canada placed number 1 with the stat that matters most , gold medals. Regardless what one may say , Gold is what you compete for , who wants to lose . Coming up short after one puts in so much time must be hard . In reality , even if you are a contender and have trained to the max of your ability , so many things still have to go just right . So the fact we won 14 is a great achievement. But can you imagine that the ultimate standard of perfection would be to win every Gold , every event . Not just once but again and again . No slips,no missed strides or targets.
That is how morally perfect we would have to be to enter into heaven , perfect every second. God is holy , without blemish and to be in his presence we need to be as well . But we know even if we grade on our own curve , who could in all honesty say we live up to our own standard. But if we apply the gold standard , God's, we stand utterly naked with all our wretchedness exposed. What hope do we have? Our hope is in God , the God who came to live a perfect life, who is the Gold standard , his righteousness is perfect ,Jesus Christ. His perfect righteousness is given to us , when we repent and believe.
So realize the gold standard is only found in Christ . Call upon his name and be saved .
