NBA Superstar Stephen Curry on His Christian Faith: 'I Play for Something Different'
CNS News ^ | Mark Judge

Posted on 06/04/2018 12:05:06 PM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

I’m not a guy who’s going to be trying to bash people over the head with the Bible. I want people to know when they see me play that something is different, that I play for something different, and whether I’m talking about it [or not], I just hope by the way I carry myself and by the way I play the game, they can see there’s something different about that guy. And they find out what it is and then they know. It’s part of who I am.

Those are the words of Stephen Curry, the superstar point guard for the Golden State Warriors.

Many of those who believe in Christ will be deceived. It does not make them bad people, just wrong. Like Curry is about his politics. Hell, 90% of so called Black people are deceived about politics, and they are no way supportive of the lefts policies. They just are following the wrong path.

It’s anti-Christian to denigrate other Christians and side with the politics embraced by atheists/Communists/reverse racists, and abortionists, Curry

You are not letting your faith determine your values. Instead you are making the huge mistake of letting politics overwhelm your values and God given common sense.

Wake up

Not everyone who claims to be a Christian is actually a Christian.
Not my job to figure out who is and who isn't - but it's apparently clear some may be horribly deceived.

He’s a Hillary supporter, so who cares what he says? Pro-abort, he is.

..predominately black churches, with some exceptions, buy into Marxist ideas, thinking they are compatible with the Bible. Black liberation/social justice is part of it. Curry ruined himself in our house...

Hey bro...don’t bring your religion into your political activism.
You get paid to play the game. And tell that to your team mate KD.

Article is TWO YEARS OLD - May 4, 2016. Curry might be able to swish a clutch 3 from 30-feet, but he obviously needs prayer that his eyes will be fully opened.

"Not my job to figure out who is and who isn't..." Yes you are...

"It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife. And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you (Paul goes to the heart of EVERY matter concerning Church affairs).

For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person."

This is out of correction, not hatred as commanded in Mathew 18. Last thing Christianity needs is a watered down Gospel WITHIN the Church. If a person is in Christ and back sliding, the last thing they should hear is "keep on supporting individuals and yourself going off the deep end as well as warping the Holy Spirit and Truth, God loves that stuff" excuses.
