This is Glory Bound The show to watch for sinners and saints alike
Here's Your host, Al Glory
Hey there, folks. Welcome to today's session of Glory Bound
where we're giving away a free trip to heaven
You know the rules, so let's play
Oh, you don't know the rules.
Well, here's how it works. We'll take a look at the lives
of our two contestants and see who's lived the most perfect life this week.
The winner will get heaven. So let's meet today's contestants.
First, we have Average Joe.
He's a churchgoer and wants to be a pastor.
Hmm, sounds like this guy really needs God, eh folks?
(Audience mumbling)
Next up, we have Righteous Brother.
He heads up that well-known charity for the poor,
known as "Charity For The Poor."
Let's hear it for Righteous Brother.
All right, let's play.
Let's look back at the lives of our two contestants this past week
and weigh their actions against these Ten Commandments.
Let's take a look at our first contestant, Average Joe.
(Bleep)
Ooh, blasphemy. Not looking so good, eh folks?
(Booing)
How about this time?
Oh, my sister's chocolate. She won't mind if I take it.
And a thief. That's two strikes, folks.
But it gets worse.
What do you think, folks?
I think we've got a blaspheming, adultrous thief on our hands.
(Booing)
Now let's check out Righteous Brother.
Bless you, sir.
Generous, eh folks?
And observe him during worship in church this week.
My anchor holds within the veil.
Christ alone, Cornerstone.
Oh, this guy loves his God with all his heart.
To be fair, he did have this one setback this week.
Check this out.
I need one of those.
Yeah, he broke that little rule about coveting,
but who hasn't?
I think our winner is clear, folks.
(Cheering)
Hold on, folks. This note was just handed me.
According to section 2:10 of the rulebook,
"Whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles at just one point
is guilty of breaking all of it."
Well, sorry folks. Looks like we've got no winner this week.
Sorry, Brother. Would've given it to you.
What?
How's anyone supposed to win this stupid contest?
You guys, you're missing the point.
We're not meant to get to heaven by following the rules.
If that was the case, Jesus never would have come to this earth.
And that's why He came to this earth, to fulfill the law.
He lived a perfect life that you and I and the host cannot live.
And He voluntarily went to the cross and He died there.
But He didn't end there. He rose from the dead.
And now He commands us to repent and put our trust in Him,
because He alone lived that perfect life.
And I trust that maybe you guys will see that because of this contest
and how you see that none of us are perfect.
And another note was just handed me.
"Warning, someone is going around handing notes to game show hosts."
We'll be right back after this message.
(Audience mumbling)
Not that any of our viewers will be back after that message.
You guys, if we could fulfill the law, Jesus would not have come
and He would not have lived that perfect life.
I mean.....
Why'd the trolley just come by?
