00:19 >>John Bradshaw: This is "It Is Written." 00:21 I'm John Bradshaw. Thanks for joining me. 00:24 Every four years our planet conducts an extravaganza, 00:28 a festival in which are celebrated 00:31 both sporting excellence and pharmacological ingenuity. 00:36 Every Olympic Games in the last few decades has been roiled 00:40 by scandals involving performance-enhancing drugs. 00:44 Weightlifters and cyclists and boxers and runners 00:47 and swimmers, and on and on, are frequently found to have 00:50 violated the Games' very strict anti-doping regulations. 00:55 This kind of cheating first reared its ugly head 00:58 during the Olympic Games in the mid-1970s. 01:02 In 1976, a swimmer on the U.S. Olympic team 01:06 in Montreal, Canada, was expected to bring home 01:09 a collection of gold medals. It was her second Olympics. 01:13 She'd been at Munich in 1972, 01:16 where she'd won a silver in a relay. 01:19 However, she wasn't as successful in Montreal 01:21 as people expected. 01:23 She didn't go home to a slot 01:25 on the lucrative celebrity speakers' tour. 01:28 She didn't get her face on the side of a Wheaties box. 01:31 And she didn't get a contract 01:32 with a sports clothing manufacturer. 01:35 She should have, and she would have, except for one thing. 01:41 Shirley Babashoff came up against the buzz saw 01:44 that was the East German Olympic swim team. 01:47 In Munich, in 1972, the East German women won five medals 01:51 in the pool, two relay medals and three individual medals-- 01:56 no golds. 01:57 The United States and Australia 01:59 dominated the women's swimming events in Munich. 02:02 Australia's Shane Gould won five medals herself. 02:07 Shirley Babashoff was 15 at the Munich Olympics. 02:10 To rule the pool in Montreal, she'd have to get past 02:13 the East Germans, who, over the previous four years, 02:16 had improved immensely-- unbelievably, really-- 02:20 and promised to be a major factor--and they were. 02:24 In 1976 the East German women won 11 of the 13 gold medals 02:30 up for grabs, setting world records in seven events 02:34 and setting two Olympic records. 02:37 It was thought that Kornelia Ender, 02:39 who went home to East Germany with four gold medals, 02:42 had achieved what she achieved by hard work, 02:45 through rigorous training, and by maintaining a good diet. 02:50 Even she believed that. 02:51 But the East German women became a force like none before 02:55 and none since because of something 02:58 called State Plan 14.25. 03:03 State Plan 14.25 was part of a desperate attempt 03:06 on the part of the communist East German government 03:09 to demonstrate to the world 03:10 the superiority of East German communism. 03:14 One expert on East German doping called State Plan 14.25 03:19 "the Manhattan Project of Sports." 03:22 Athletes were force-fed performance-enhancing drugs. 03:26 It made them potent in the pool 03:28 but did a tremendous amount of physical and emotional damage. 03:33 Gerd Bonk, the world-record-holding 03:35 weightlifter, who won silver in Montreal 03:37 behind the Soviet colossus Vasily Alekseyev, 03:40 spent the last three decades of his life in a wheelchair 03:44 owing to kidney failure, 03:46 brought on by anabolic steroid use, many believe. 03:49 In fact, Bonk's consumption of anabolic steroids 03:52 in just one year is the greatest consumption ever documented. 03:57 One West German journalist joked that a West German farmer 04:00 could fatten up a whole stable of cattle 04:03 with the drugs Bonk consumed. 04:05 The drugs were distributed far and wide. 04:08 Even teenage figure skaters were plied 04:11 with performance-enhancing but often body-destroying drugs. 04:16 Females who took the drugs often developed male characteristics. 04:19 A man who used to swim for an elite American college team 04:22 told me personally that he had friends 04:25 on the 1976 Olympic swim team who told him this story. 04:29 He said several U.S. women in the changing room in Montreal 04:32 were alarmed to hear a deep voice. 04:35 Going to investigate, they discovered the deep voice 04:37 belonged to an East German female swimmer. 04:41 "What a deep voice you have," one of the American women said. 04:44 The East German woman looked at her and said, 04:47 "We didn't come here to sing." 04:50 Shirley Babashoff and every other non-East German 04:53 female swimmer was ripped off by East Germany. 04:57 She and others were deprived 04:59 not only of their chance of a lifetime, 05:02 of the just rewards of the years of discipline and training, 05:06 but also of the money they would have earned 05:08 by being Olympic champions. 05:10 And the media didn't understand what was going on, 05:14 branding Shirley Babashoff "Surly Shirley" 05:17 because of her demeanor at the pool. 05:19 She knew it was cheating that kept her 05:21 from winning gold medals. 05:23 It would be awhile before this scandal 05:25 became general knowledge. 05:27 She did win four silver medals and a gold in the relay, 05:31 but, strangely, that's not considered real success 05:35 when the world is expecting you to win gold. 05:38 She returned home from the Olympic Games 05:39 and eventually took up a job delivering mail 05:42 for the U.S. Postal Service. 05:44 She essentially wasn't heard from in public 05:47 for another 40 years. 05:49 And it wasn't just East Germany that was cheating in 1976. 05:53 Although he denied it, 05:55 it's believed the great Finnish athlete Lasse Virén, 05:58 who won the 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters double 06:01 on the track in 1972 and 1976, 06:05 was almost certainly blood doping at the time. 06:08 The thing is, it wasn't illegal then. 06:11 In blood doping, red blood cells are injected into an athlete 06:15 before competition, increasing the amount of red blood cells 06:18 in the athlete's system, thereby increasing endurance. 06:22 They are the athlete's own red blood cells, 06:25 extracted previously. 06:27 Now, Virén's story comes close to home for me. 06:29 The runner who finished second to Virén in the 5,000 meters 06:33 in Montreal was a New Zealander, Dick Quax. 06:38 Stories like this are everywhere in sport-- 06:40 Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa in baseball; 06:45 Marion Jones on the track. 06:47 Sprinter Florence Griffith Joyner still holds 06:49 the world record for both the 100 meters and 200 meters. 06:52 She won three gold medals in Seoul. 06:55 But Flo-Jo died young at the age of just 38, 06:58 and while there's never been any proof presented, 07:02 many people believe she was using or had used 07:05 performance-enhancing drugs. 07:07 The big story of the Seoul Olympics was Ben Johnson, 07:10 the Canadian sprinter who was disqualified 07:13 after winning the 100 meters 07:15 for his use of stanozolol, an anabolic steroid. 07:18 Of the eight men in that race, six tested positive 07:23 for performance-enhancing drugs during their careers. 07:26 A book by the late Richard Moore 07:27 called the men's 100 meters final in Seoul 07:30 "the dirtiest race in history." 07:33 Carl Lewis, who was promoted to gold 07:35 after Johnson's disqualification, 07:37 tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs 07:40 at the U.S. Olympic trials. 07:43 We could talk about the Russian team being largely disinvited 07:46 from the Rio Olympics in 2018 07:48 or the Russian Paralympic team being completely excluded 07:52 from the Rio Paralympics. 07:54 And why was that? Cheating. 07:57 A state-sponsored drugs cheating program. 08:01 So, why do people do it? 08:04 And what can be learned from this 08:06 from a biblical point of view? 08:08 I'll tell you how this relates to you in just a moment. 08:12 ♪[upbeat music swells and ends]♪♪ 08:22 >>Announcer: Today's free offer is 08:24 "Victorious: Living a New Life in Jesus." 08:26 You'll learn how to move beyond the mistakes of yesterday 08:29 to experience victory today. 08:30 To receive "Victorious: Living a New Life in Jesus," 08:33 call 800-253-3000 right now. 08:36 That's 800-253-3000, 08:39 or visit us online at iiwoffer.com. 08:42 Get this free resource now 08:44 and enter into the life of victory God wants for you: 08:47 800-253-3000 or iiwoffer.com. 08:53 >>John Bradshaw: Thanks for joining me on "It Is Written." 08:55 Cheating in athletics 08:56 through the use of performance-enhancing drugs 08:58 has become part of the sporting landscape. 09:01 In the early 2020s, more than 60 athletes from Kenya, 09:05 including a Boston Marathon winner, 09:08 had been suspended from competition due to doping. 09:12 So, why do people do it? 09:14 In the early days of using EPO, which Lance Armstrong used, 09:18 20 young Belgian and Dutch cyclists died, 09:21 according to "The Guardian." 09:23 Lance Armstrong rode his first Tour de France clean. 09:28 He turned to cheating because he knew that if he didn't cheat, 09:31 he'd never win the famous race, which was awash in cheating. 09:35 He wasn't inherently dishonest; 09:38 he simply realized that if he wanted to win, 09:41 he needed to play by the same rules-- 09:43 or break the same rules-- as his opponents. 09:47 In other words, Lance Armstrong, Marion Jones, Kornelia Ender, 09:52 Ben Johnson, and so many more had one thing in common: 09:57 Their best wasn't good enough. 10:00 Now, the reason I bring this up 10:01 is because there's a profoundly important spiritual parallel. 10:05 When the apostle Paul wrote his first letter 10:07 to the church in Corinth, 10:08 he used this interesting descriptor. 10:11 This is 1 Corinthians 9, verse 24: 10:14 "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, 10:18 but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain." 10:23 He's alluding to the ancient games, and he says, 10:26 although many run, there's only one winner. 10:29 So, if you're going to run in the Christian race, 10:31 run to win, he says. 10:33 It's like legendary football coach Vince Lombardi once said, 10:37 "Winning isn't everything. It's the only thing." 10:39 Now, substitute the word "salvation" for "winning," 10:43 and you're making a pretty good point. 10:45 Let Paul's words sink in. 10:48 In Christianity, if you're going to run, run to win. 10:53 Ben Johnson ran, and he was afraid his best 10:56 wouldn't be good enough to beat Carl Lewis. 10:58 And truth be told, it probably wasn't. 11:00 Lance Armstrong wouldn't have won a Tour de France 11:03 against the drug-fueled European cyclists 11:06 because his best wasn't good enough. 11:09 He'd have been cycling uphill. 11:11 So, if you are running in the Christian race, 11:15 is your best good enough? 11:17 Now, let me answer that for you. 11:19 The answer is, no. No, it isn't. 11:24 There are some profound statements in the Bible 11:26 that help us see the depths of our brokenness. 11:30 "All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." 11:33 And exactly three chapters later, 11:34 Paul writes that "the wages of sin is death." 11:39 We've all sinned, and therefore we all deserve death. 11:43 Our best? Not so good. 11:46 Back in Romans 3, verse 10, quoting from Psalm 14, 11:49 Paul says, "As it is written, 11:51 'There is none righteous, no, not one.'" 11:55 Every last human being on earth is a broken sinner. 12:00 And no matter what you think of yourself, that includes you. 12:05 We want to go to heaven, but heaven isn't for sinful people. 12:09 Who's it for? 12:11 It's for holy people. It's for righteous people. 12:16 You can't get to heaven without righteousness. 12:19 And yet the Bible tells us very directly that 12:22 "all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags." 12:25 That's Isaiah 64:6. 12:28 So what hope do we have? 12:29 We're not good enough to go to heaven. 12:33 Most of us realize that we're not all that we ought to be. 12:36 We see rough spots in our character. 12:39 And what's the common response to seeing things 12:41 in your life, in your heart that shouldn't be there? 12:44 What's a very common response when you realize 12:47 that your best isn't good enough for heaven? 12:50 It's really common for people to say, "I'll try harder. 12:55 "I'll do better. I'll take it more seriously. 12:59 I'll do my absolute best." 13:02 And that's an absolute disaster. And why is that? 13:08 It's because we don't have a thing 13:10 that's worth giving to God. 13:11 Our righteousnesses? Filthy rags. 13:15 That's not to say we shouldn't do right. Of course, we should. 13:18 But our own righteousness is not worth anything. 13:21 In fact, Paul said that his righteousness was no better 13:25 than manure, "dung" in the King James Version. 13:28 That, he said, is all that his self-righteousness was worth: 13:34 manure. 13:35 So what's the solution to this, 13:37 for people who are not good enough for heaven? 13:40 Here's what I want you to remember. 13:42 Jesus never asked you to be good. 13:46 He did tell us, however, to be holy, 13:49 but mentioning that makes it frightening for many Christians, 13:52 because who in the world would stand up and say, "I am holy"? 13:56 Well, don't worry because Jesus made a promise 13:59 that has got you covered. 14:01 You'll find it in Luke 11, and I'll start in Luke 11, verse 11. 14:05 Jesus said, "If a son shall ask bread of any of you 14:08 "that is a father, will he give him a stone? 14:11 Or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?" 14:17 That's easy to relate to. 14:18 It isn't hard for parents to spoil their kids 14:21 because parents want to give good things to their children. 14:25 They want to provide for their children. 14:28 Watch where Jesus goes with this now. 14:30 Verse 12: "Or if he shall ask an egg, 14:34 will he offer him a scorpion?" 14:37 That's almost funny, isn't it? 14:38 Jesus was dealing in the absurd 14:40 to make a very, very, very important point, 14:44 one He does not want you to miss, because, remember, 14:48 according to the Bible, your best is not good enough. 14:52 Here's verse 13: 14:54 "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts 14:57 "unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father 15:02 give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?" 15:06 And there it is. God promises you the Holy Spirit. 15:13 He promises the Holy Spirit to anyone who asks. 15:18 It's that simple. 15:19 "How much more shall your heavenly Father 15:22 give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?" 15:28 And what is this gift? 15:30 The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Godhead 15:34 and brings the personal presence of Jesus into your life. 15:39 First John 3, verse 24 says, 15:41 "And by this we know that He abides in us, 15:44 by the [Holy] Spirit whom He has given us." 15:48 Our best can never be good enough. 15:51 Humans are broken, fallen, unrighteous. 15:54 But when you accept Jesus, 15:57 something powerful happens in your life. 16:00 Jesus comes into your life through the Holy Spirit. 16:04 And rather than you possessing the Holy Spirit, 16:06 it's really more accurate to say, 16:08 the Holy Spirit possesses you. 16:11 When Jesus enters your life, 16:13 when the Holy Spirit comes into your life 16:14 and brings the personal presence of Jesus into your life, 16:18 Jesus comes in with--well, what? 16:21 When Jesus enters your life, He brings His holiness. 16:25 He brings His obedience. 16:27 He brings His life-changing power. 16:30 He brings His righteousness. 16:32 And what kind of righteousness is that? 16:35 It is perfect righteousness. 16:37 When you request the gift of the Holy Spirit, 16:40 when you surrender to God, 16:41 God gives you the life-altering gift 16:45 that is the only thing that can prepare you for heaven. 16:49 God gives you Jesus' own righteousness, 16:52 and with that, you are qualified for heaven. 16:57 So, how can you experience the power of the Holy Spirit? 17:01 I'll tell you that in just a moment. 17:04 ♪[upbeat music swells and ends]♪♪ 17:13 >>John: Thank you for remembering that It Is Written 17:15 exists because of the kindness of people just like you. 17:18 To support this international life-changing ministry, 17:21 please call us now at 800-253-3000. 17:26 You can send your tax-deductible gift 17:27 to the address on your screen, 17:29 or you can visit online at itiswritten.com. 17:33 Thank you for your prayers and for your financial support. 17:35 Our number again is 800-253-3000, 17:39 or you can visit us online at itiswritten.com. 17:43 >>John: I meet people who are worried 17:45 they'll never be good enough to go to heaven. 17:48 And they're right. 17:49 You'll never be good enough to go to heaven. 17:51 But when Jesus comes into your heart, that changes everything. 17:56 And He doesn't come into your heart as a performance-enhancer. 18:00 Jesus doesn't take your best and then add to it. 18:03 He comes into your life to make you new 18:06 so that He can live His life in you. 18:08 So that He can work in you "both to will and to do 18:13 for His good pleasure," as Philippians 2:13 says. 18:16 "He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it 18:19 until the day of Jesus Christ." 18:21 That's Philippians 1 and verse 6. 18:23 He comes into your life; He starts the work; 18:26 you surrender to Him and allow Him to do His will. 18:30 He continues that work; He finishes that work. 18:34 You cooperate. You surrender. He does the work. 18:38 You are not modified; you are re-created. 18:42 When you come to faith in Christ, the old you dies. 18:46 Paul wrote to three churches-- the Romans, the Ephesians, 18:49 and the Colossians--about the "old man" or the "old person." 18:54 That's who you were before Jesus came into your life. 18:57 What happens when you accept Jesus 18:59 is that the old you dies and you are born again. 19:03 It's one of the reasons so many people struggle in their faith 19:06 because they never allow the old them to be put to death. 19:11 They don't experience a death to the old life. 19:15 Faith in God wasn't given to make you a good person. 19:18 Both the world and the church are full of moralists, 19:23 people who will talk about Christianity 19:25 without ever being remade by Christ. 19:28 They'll quote the Bible without ever understanding 19:30 Matthew 4 in verse 4: 19:31 "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, 19:36 but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'" 19:40 Discussing people who "walk in the vanity [or futility] 19:44 of their mind," Paul wrote, 19:46 "that you put off, concerning your former conduct, 19:49 "the old man which grows corrupt 19:51 "according to the deceitful lusts, 19:53 "and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 19:56 "and that you put on the new man which was created 19:59 according to God, in true righteousness and holiness." 20:04 This is what that power of the Holy Spirit accomplishes. 20:07 He makes you new. 20:09 This is what Jesus was referring to when He spoke to Nicodemus 20:12 about "being born of the Spirit." 20:14 It's that heavenly power that, like the wind, you can't see, 20:18 but you can see its effects. 20:20 No one alive can be good enough for heaven. 20:23 That's why Jesus died on the cross. 20:26 He bore your sins, and dying as a perfect sacrifice, 20:30 He gives you His righteousness, His goodness. 20:35 At the cross, Jesus said, "I'll take care of your sin. 20:38 I'll give you a new heart. I'll make you pure." 20:41 That sin you're carrying around? Jesus died for that. 20:45 Why would you carry it with you everywhere you go? 20:48 That guilt you've been feeling about mistakes made in the past? 20:51 Why carry that guilt? 20:53 At Calvary, Jesus died for your sin 20:56 so that you could be free from that. 20:59 You accept Jesus, and there's no guilt. 21:01 He took care of that at the cross. 21:04 Your best can't ever be good enough for heaven. 21:08 So trust in Jesus, who died for you. 21:11 Look away from yourself and trust in His goodness. 21:16 Trust in the sacrifice He made for you at Calvary. 21:20 When you do that, He gives you His righteousness. 21:24 The Holy Spirit will come into your life. 21:26 This is not a performance-enhancing drug; 21:29 it's the third Person of the Godhead living in your life. 21:32 The presence of the Holy Spirit brings salvation into your life 21:37 and remakes you. 21:39 You can't ever be the same again after allowing Jesus 21:44 to live His life in you. 21:47 Let's finish with another track-and-field story. 21:50 One of the greatest athletes of all time was Emil Zátopek, 21:54 the Czechoslovakian who won gold in the 10,000 meters 21:58 and silver in the 5,000 meters at the London Olympics in 1948. 22:03 Four years later in Helsinki, Finland, 22:06 Zátopek won the gold medal in the 5,000 meters, 22:09 the 10,000 meters, and the marathon-- 22:12 the first marathon he ever ran. 22:15 It's inconceivable that anyone could ever do that again. 22:20 Now, Zátopek was a character. 22:21 Before they were married, he found out 22:23 that he and his bride-to-be had been born on the same day. 22:26 He said to her, "Maybe we could get married on the same day?" 22:31 His running style was, was not exactly art. 22:34 One journalist described his running as looking 22:36 like "someone wrestling with an octopus on a conveyor belt." 22:40 Another said that "it always looked like his next step 22:42 would be his last." 22:44 He wasn't bothered by the critiquing. 22:45 He'd say, "I always thought the objective was to go fast." 22:49 And Zátopek did. 22:51 He trained as though his life depended on it. 22:54 And he had a personality 22:55 that won him friends wherever he went. 22:59 In 1966, Zátopek's life intersected with that 23:03 of another great athlete, Ron Clarke of Australia, 23:06 who set 17 world records. 23:09 In 1965 Clarke set 12 world records in 44 days, 23:16 but he never won the big one. 23:17 He might be the greatest athlete to have never won 23:21 an Olympic gold medal. 23:23 In 1966, at the invitation of Zátopek, 23:27 Ron Clarke ran in a track meet in Prague. 23:30 Zátopek drove to the airport after the event 23:33 and accompanied him all the way to the steps of the plane. 23:36 Remember, this was 1966. 23:38 When he gave the Australian a small package 23:41 wrapped in brown paper, he said, 23:44 "This is for you because you deserve it." 23:48 Clarke wondered if it was a message for the outside world 23:51 or something his Czech friend wanted smuggled 23:53 out of Czechoslovakia, 23:55 which was behind the Iron Curtain back then. 23:58 When his plane landed at London's Heathrow Airport, 24:00 Clarke's curiosity won out, and he opened the package. 24:06 Inside was one of Zátopek's own gold medals, 24:11 one of the three he won in Helsinki 14 years earlier. 24:16 He gave away one of his gold medals 24:18 to a man he had only met once. 24:21 And why? Because "you deserve it." 24:26 One day, Jesus is going to come back. 24:29 We're going to heaven. 24:31 And when we get there, according to what Paul wrote to Timothy, 24:35 He'll give us, not a gold medal, but a golden crown. 24:39 And why would Jesus do that? Because we deserve it? 24:43 No, we don't deserve it, and we never will. 24:48 Jesus said in John 16, 24:49 "It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, 24:53 "the Comforter will not come unto you; 24:56 but if I depart, I will send Him unto you." 25:00 He said the Holy Spirit "would reprove"--or convict-- 25:03 "the world of sin and of righteousness and of judgment." 25:09 How do you receive the Holy Spirit?
