I think I know what you mean, but you may have a situation with these verses.

This is an excellent article regarding the pitfalls of hero worship. I think it is good that Tim and Jeremy believe what they believe, without going overboard with analysis or questioning about winning or losing.

I use to think He didn’t care...until I realized that there was more going on in a game then just the game.

None of them seem to have anything to do with HERO WORSHIP unless you want them to apply to that. More like a statement that says it doesn't particularly matter to God (and it shouldn't to you) what someone's station in life is (rich, poor, nobleman, commoner, slave, king) when it comes to judgment (of whatever kind that is).

As a practical matter we should judge Obama and his running dog lackeys by the same standards God will ~ but presumably in such a manner that we don't go to jail for it.
