Important Takeaways:
- The opening ceremony of the Olympics is supposed to be a celebration. Instead, it was an abomination. It was supposed to be a festivity. Instead, it was blasphemy.
- The entire opening ceremony was characterized as “one long drag show.” Drag queens did a parody of The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci with a woman sitting in the middle with a halo over her head, intended to represent Jesus surrounded by his disciples. It’s hard to imagine something more blasphemous than that. People in drag and transgender filled the entire celebration—or what was intended to be a celebration.
- Elon Musk, who certainly is no friend of Christianity, weighed in and said the parody was “extremely disrespectful to Christians.” It was an open mocking of the Lord’s Supper.
- There was lots of fire and a bloody display of beheaded Marie Antoinettes singing, of course, referring back to the French Revolution.
- Notably, the scene also featured a woman riding a white metallic horse across the river of seine (pronounced “sin” in English), donning the flag of the International Olympic Committee. They claimed the display was “representative of the Olympic spirit.” The horse passed under successive bridges as dove wings were unfurled, supposedly to symbolize a message of peace.
- The imagery is undoubtedly very reminiscent of what we read in Revelation 6.
- In that chapter, the Bible tells us that someday, there will be a rider on a white horse who will come forth from Europe, a reunited Roman Empire, and that person will be the ultimate antichrist. It’s hard to imagine a stronger symbol of Biblical prophecy than what was just seen at this Olympic celebration.
- Revelation 6 describes a false messiah, the antichrist, who rides forth at the beginning of the tribulation period also on a white horse—the ultimate counterfeit Christ.
- There was one final thing that was a capstone to all of this. The celebration included a rendition of John Lennon’s song, “Imagine,” the lyrics of which state:
- Imagine there’s no heaven / It’s easy if you try.
- No hell below us / Above us, only sky.
- Imagine all the people / Livin’ for today.
- Sadly, that’s what you see in the Olympics: people living for today with no thought of eternity, accountability to God, and no fear of God.
- Imagine there’s no countries / It isn’t hard to do.
- Nothing to kill or die for / And no religion, too
- Imagine all the people / Livin’ life in peace
- The Olympics are also supposed to be this great picture of humanity, unity, and peace. The picture is certainly muddied by the 45,000 police and 18,000 soldiers in Paris for these opening ceremonies. There has already been sabotage against some of the railway systems in Paris.
- In their worldview, somehow, without God and Christ, we can have peace and unity in this world. Tragically, that is just a mirage…
- As our world continues to go farther into wickedness, evil, blasphemy, and abomination, let’s be faithful to Jesus Christ. He’s coming back. Let’s live in light of that. Let’s have all the influence we can have in this world until He comes to take us to Heaven.
