1st - FLAT BASKETBALL
person without Christ and it shows. The basketball has no air and it shows from the outside.
2nd - FROM A DISTANCE THE BASKETBALL LOOKS GOOD
(Outward appearance) The basketball looks good on the outside but it is missing some air. Therefore the basketball cannot do what needs to be done. It need more real air on the inside in order to be what it is meant to be. = person who knows what to say when needs to, but that person is not surrendered to Christ because of sin issues or because they are not saved at all.
3rd - FULL BASKETBALL APPEARANCE AND PERFORMANCE MATCH UP WELL
this basketball can be used to do what it was designed for = One who is in an abiding faith relationship with Jesus as LORD and He lives through that person to accomplish what He wants done (agrees with God) - this person is used to do things that only God can do because Jesus/Holy Spirit lives through this person for His purpose.
GALATIANS 2:20
"i have been crucified with Christ. it is no longer i who live, but Christ who lives in me. and the life i now live in the flesh i live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."
