Is God A Game? Yes! by Watkind: 3:45pm On Nov 28, 2011
Recently, Channel 4 aired Seyi Rhode’s documentary of Dr. Sign Fireman and some Nigerian Pastors. Because of how he edited the videos he used, it looked like Dr. Fireman’s teaching that “God is a Game” was wrong … until you go through it in full. Below is the full message. Read it and judge.

In First Corinthians 9:24-26, Paul said: “Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air.
He said, “So RUN ….” That is talking about the SPORT of running. He also said, “… so fight I, not as one that BEATETH THE AIR.” That is talking about A GAME like boxing. Paul is comparing God to the sport of running. And Paul is also comparing God to the GAME of boxing.
So, God is a game.
I didn’t say that; Paul did!
What does he mean?
Every game is ruled by laws. The same way, God is an adventure, ruled by laws. If we obey God’s laws in the Bible, our lives will be as enjoyable as a game!
And the game is easy: all it takes is for you to obey God’s laws!
If God’s people will learn to obey God’s laws, their lives will be as enjoyable as a game!

This is the written teaching that Dr. Sign Fireman gave the pastors to teach. I am a member of one of the branches. That is how it was given to us. This is my own copy. But Seyi Rhodes grossly edited it, picking only “God is a game” and “The game is easy.” Read the whole teaching, and put all those things in their proper places, and tell me whether Dr. Fireman was wrong! And that is what he did to every other thing in his documentary! We have the original videos of all those services. Frankly, because we know the truth, we are not moved!
