AND BEYOND

USING THE PAINTING, “CHECKMATE”
TO ILLUSTRATE WHAT WE MUST DO IN 2013 AND BEYOND
![Page 7: 2013 A Big Picture Look At Our Global Opportunities For Change](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070303/54b85c074a7959e9418b4591/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
THE PAINTING
• A story that illustrates the point.
• As a tour guide took a group through an art gallery, he stopped before a painting entitled Checkmate. The guide talked about the painting, and then moved on. ,

“THE DEVIL VS FAUST”
• The chess game was between the devil and Faust, who had sold his soul to the devil. It appears as if the devil had won. The devil has a smirk on his face, as if waiting for the final verdict, Checkmate!

HOPE, WHEN THERE IS NO HOPE
• But one of the group stayed behind, staring at the chess pieces on the chessboard in the painting.

“THE KING HAS ANOTHER MOVE”
• The young man who stayed to study the painting was a world class player. When the tour group was two corridors away, they suddenly heard their stray member running down the marble hallway to catch up, shouting,
• "It's a lie! It's a lie! The king has another move. Another move!"

http://btlife.blogspot.com/2008/07/king-…Have you heard this story? It's been told by Christian speakers as far back as 1955 when Billy Graham told a variation of it early in his ministry. Two men are standing in front of a painting called Checkmate in an art gallery. In the painting, a man is playing chess with the devil. The devil is grinning ear-to-ear because he has the man cornered. The title of the painting, Checkmate, indicates that the game is over. The devil has won. His opponent has no more moves.The first man looking at the painting wants to move on to other paintings in the gallery. But the second man, an international chess champion, wants to look at the painting longer, so he waves his friend on and tells him he will catch up later. The chess champion stares and stares at the chess board, then suddenly he steps back, flabbergasted. "It's wrong!" he exclaims. "There's one more move." He runs to his friend and together they look at the painting. "We have to contact the painter," the chess champion says. "It's not checkmate. The king has one more move."
