There was a Man who was not famous for playing games, while a Bonobo was famous for playing them, too. The Man enjoyed creating, and building, and built many castles and a heavenly kingdom in his game. The Bonobo, however, did not. The Man was not famous, but the Bonobo were. The Man became jealous at this, and said, "I sit here, and create great masterpieces, and have no fortune. And this, this creature, only knows how to move forward and back, and he is more successful than even I!" The Bonobo signed to the Man, "I have not the faculties of a man, for this is the best I can do. I do not play this for enjoyment, like you, but only for bananas. Know, for that reason, that you construct and build, and move to greater plateaus, that is why you are more beloved in God's eyes. Let me have my fame in this short period of time, while you seek after eternal glory and rest."
Mark 13:51Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord. 52Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.
