THE CHAMPION

Hi Dear Viannetians!

Please start memorizing the literature below. You can copy-paste the script and print it or download the script directly from the internet. See you soon.

“The Champion” by Carman
In the vast expanse of a timeless place where Silence ruled the outer space
Ominously towering it stood the symbol of a spirit war
Between the one named Lucifer, and the Morning star, the ultimate of good.
Enveloped by a trillion planets
Clean as lightning, and hard as granite
A cosmic coliseum would host the end,
Of the war between the lord of sin and death
And the omnipotent creator of man’s first breath
Who will decide, who forever will be…..
The audience for the fight of the ages was assembled and in place.
The angels came in splendor from a star.
The saints that had gone before were there, Jeremiah, Enoch, Job.
They were singing the song of Zion on David’s harp.
The demons arrived, offensive and vile, cursing and blaspheming God
Followed by their trophies dead and gone. Hitler, Napoleon, Pharaoh, Capone, tormented, vexed, and grieved and waiting for their judgment from the throne.
Then a chill swept through the mammoth crowd and the demons squealed with glee
As a sordid, vulgar, repulsive essence was felt. Arrogantly prancing, hands held high, draped in a sparkling shroud, trolled by demons, Satan ascended from Hell.
Then Satan cringed, the sinners groaned, the demons reeled in pain as a swell of power like silent thunder rolled. With a surge of light beyond intense illuminating the universe, In resplendent glory appeared the Son of God.
Then a persona, yes, extraordinaire appeared in center ring. God the Father will oversee the duel.
Opening the Book of Life, each grand stand hushed in awe as majestically he said, “Now, here’s the rules: He’ll be wounded for their transgressions, bruised for iniquities.” When he said, “By His stripes they’re healed,” the devil shook. He said, “Sickness is my specialty – I hate that healing junk.”
God said, “You shut your face – I wrote the book.”
Then the Father looked at His only son and said, “You know the rules. Your blood will cleanse their sin and calm their fears.” Then he pointed His finger at Satan and said, “And I know you know the rules,
You’ve been twisting them to deceive my people for years.” Satan cried, “I’ll kill you Christ! You will never win this fight.” The demons wheezed, “That’s right, there ain’t no way.” Satan jeered, “You’re dead meat Jesus, I’m gonna bust you up tonight.”
Jesus said, “Go ahead, make my day!”
The bell, the crowd, the fight was on, and the Devil leaped in fury. With all his evil tricks he came undone.
He threw his jabs of hate and lust, a stab of pride and envy, but the hands that knew no sin blocked every one. Forty days and nights they fought and Satan couldn’t touch Him. Now the final blow saved for the final round. Prophetically Christ’s hands came down and Satan struck in vengeance. The blow of death fell Jesus to the ground.
The devils roared in victory, the saints shocked and perplexed as wounds appeared upon His hands and feet. Then Satan kicked Him in His side and blood and water flowed
And they waited for the ten count of defeat. God the Father turned His head. His tears announcing Christ was dead. The ten count would proclaim the battle’s end. The Satan trembled through his sweat in unexpected horror yet,As God started the count by saying, “…10…”
Hey wait a minute God, “…9…” Stop, you’re counting wrong, “…8…” His eyes are moving… “…7…”
His fingers are twitching… “…6…” Where’s all this light coming from… “…5…” He’s alive “…4…” Oh no…
“…3…2…” Oh yes He has won! He has won! He’s alive forevermore, He is risen, He is Lord.
He has won! He has won! He’s alive forevermore, He has risen, He is Lord.
Proclaim the news in every tongue, through endless ages and beyond.
Let it be voiced from mountains loud and strong,
Captivity has been set free, salvation bought for you and me,
Cause Satan is defeated and Jesus is THE CHAMPION!

  1. My Reaction: Being a Champion on a competition doesn't always works by having an upper hand nor having head starts it's about having the knowledge on what will happen now or sooner. Relating this to life, our goals and mission should be plan ahead of time because sudden problems can actually bust in and ruin your mission. Relating it to Seminary life, all of us had to be ready when we are being challenge by the devil in our formation. Trials and Tribulations will always come and make mission more difficult to complete. But sometimes trials could be that helpful, for they give lessons to be learnt for us to achieve somethings in the future. And sometimes, we could also use trials to complete a task or beat the problems, we could realize these when we are done with the task, that some problems could be solved by another problem we just don't comprehend it fully.


    Life is full of challenges, we should be ready anytime, anywhere, everyday, everytime, every year and especially at future.


    Satan didn't win he just got an upper hand or head start.

    1. this gives us an idea of the "2nd battle" between good and evil as seen by St John in his revelations. I agree that trials will make our journey and battle a little difficult to overcome but God will make us champions in life. Thanks Ardy!

  4. In my reaction about the story of "The Champion" by Carman is that it is just "wow". In my opinion, Carman may have summarized the life and ministry of Jesus while he was still alive. Carman may also be a devout christian or maybe a priest. It also states the death and resurrection of Christ, which made me feel happy because it reminds me of the hardships Jesus had done in his life for us and laid down his life for us to forgive us on our sins on the cross and fought death. I still can't believe that they fought for forty days and night and still Jesus is defending from all the blows of Satan, which makes me confident about God and his son to protect everyone. But when the time came that Jesus puts his hands down and Satan did a massive blow to Jesus and he died, it makes me feel sad because Jesus is a good person and why would Satan do such thing. When the moment when God is counting down and slowly revealing that Jesus is alive and he defeated Satan is a moment of bliss for me. I can't explain it in words, but it is a bliss moment when it is announced that Jesus is CHAMPION.
    My comment is that the story is written in an artistic manner and it is very good. It is also a very good example of a summarized life of Jesus and also maybe the author is a smart one because of how he writes this story in a philosophical way like how St. John the Beloved Apostle wrote his own gospel.

    1. Carman is a born again Christian who embraced evangelicalism and Evangelist, singer, songwriter, rapper,television show host, actor (wikipedia.com). Looking at your answer, Carman may have acted as a "witness to what happened during the conquest of darkness and rescue to man by the Savior, Christ himself. GREAT Johnray!

  5. Demons are said to be the enemies of the angels. Demons are the bad ones and angels are the good ones. In the story, The Champion by Carman, Lucifer, the lord if sin and death lead the demons to war against the angels that is led by the Son of God, Jesus. They fought forty days and nights and Satan didn't touch Jesus. And the time has come for the final blow, Satan kicked Jesus in his side and blood and water flowed. Jesus died and God the Father counted 10 and when He reached one Jesus resurrected from the dead and Satan is defeated and Jesus is the champion. Jesus is the true light and He should only be our God forever.

    1. We see this Raffy in the story of the passion, death and resurrection of Christ. Carman narrated the story in such a way that listeners to his musical narrative could remember and perhaps learn (for those who do not read the Bible or are not Christians) about how Jesus redeemed us from our sins and how the good always triumphs over the bad.

  7. The war between demons and angels started when Jesus Christ is alive. The demons arrived in heaven and planned the fight, and then Satan ascended in hell, the demons was roaring and trained for the battle, God was talking to Jesus and saying the rules, they get ready about the fight and then Jesus and Satan was fighting through words Satan said to Jesus I will kill you Christ, You will never win this fight, and then the demons roared, the bell ranged and the fight was on the demons attacked the angels, Forty days and Forty night they was fighting but the final round was on Jesus Christ was felled down and all the demons roared in victory and then Satan kicked him and the blood and water of Jesus flowed down then God turned his face and his tears is falling and then he counted down from 10 to 1 and Satan was too afraid to God and feel sorry and say that Jesus Christ has won, Jesus Christ is Lord, Jesus Christ is Risen, Jesus Christ is alive. Then at last they announced that Jesus Christ is the CHAMPION!

  8. Wow! I thought Jesus will lose for the first time. It's true that Jesus is the most powerful. The demons are very happy when Jesus was down, but when Jesus got up, the angels were verry happy and they shouted for joy. I've already learned that being HOLY makes you blessed. You only need to pray and ask for help, strength, and power. Look at Jesus, he is very blessed and he acts more than a saint. Why? He trusts God our Father. He always pray not only for him but for all of us! We must not worship Satan! He is a DEMON! We must not be like him, we must not love him! He is a bad person. All he only knew are bad things. He is not supposed to be love by him. Shame on him. We only have one god. And that is God our Father. And there's also another one who we must also love. That's Jesus. We must respect, love, obey, and worship them. We may also pray for them. We must also love, respect,obey and worship Jesus, because he sacrificed His own life for all of the people in this world we have.And for me, no other human in this world could be like our Lord Jesus Christ, and no other gods be like God, because our God is an AWESOME GOD. He reigns.

  9. The champion by Carman
    Is about a clash between good and evils, and the mediator is God
    And it was so epic from the saints to demon to the death and resurrection of Jesus our Lord
    And I admire the book of life that God held
    The thing that I imagine is like they are playing a game like basketball
    And Satan oozing of confident that he can defeat Jesus but when it’s the game,
    Little by little Satan is defeated by Jesus then Satan think that it’s time to use his ultimate weapon favorite of others but hate of many people Satan cheat and little by little Jesus is defeated
    Satan cheat in a very dirty way that even the mediator can’t do anything even he see Jesus is suffering so hard but God said “It must be done to defeat Satan” ,so Jesus endure every suffering , every pain that God gave to Jesus. Jesus gave everything until his last breathe.
    That cheat that Satan use to Jesus represent our sins and Jesus take all, he take all the responsibility
    To take away our sins away but still Jesus won and he is the champion he won because we doubted all of the sin that we have done
    That’s why every sin come to us we must say no and pray everyday and be faithfull
    To God and to Jesus every people like Jesus do to god even Jesus is in pain
    Being Jesus is very hard you a very strong will

  10. In the story, The Champion by Carman, the battle between angels and demons occur, Jesus as the leader of the angels and Satan as the leader of the demons.The fight last for forty days and forty nights until Satan kicked Jesus and blood and water flowed.Jesus died and God the Father counted to 10 and Jesus resurrected. The death of Jesus in the story is like his death because Jesus was crucified and resurrected on the third day.Jesus is the only True Light and can defeat darkness.

  11. At the very beginning of the story I was touched and think that this will be a great story because of it's origin and theme.It was said that Satan will defeat the great God, who create the entire universe and I see that Jesus was sent by the Father to redeem us from sin and death.He experienced suffering like us man in this world. My reaction in this story I have just been greatful because I think that Jesus,the Son of God will be defeated by Satan through Crucifixion and death but Satan was wrong and didn't realize that God is more powerful than him,that he will never defeat him and he will always reign not Satan,just like others Jesus experienced temptation and suffering eventhough he was in the form of God.Satan Cheated in very stupid way Because he thought he will defeat the son of the most high but for me he will never ever ever ever defeat the goodness of God and we must remember that in times of temptation and suffering goodness will always reign,we will worship him in the end and Satan will never ever be the champion of this battle because Jesus is the only CHAMPION

  12. The Champion

    the story is really fascinating it like covered up the real story of how Jesus suffered and got cruxified it turned out to be good. But at first i thought that the devil and his demons will win the fight against the God but with Jesus' faith he defeated the Devil. The sotry fascinated me to lessen temptation and avoiding sin. Through this story i myself have learned wonderful things during the scenes that happened during the story. Maybe if during our play i will be inspired to perform more confidently and joyfuly in many way. So the story help me alot and inspired me "to pick up my cross and to go on" and helped me achieve more in life. This day made know of something and that Jesus is the CHAMPION
    PS sir did the best i could hope you appreciate it

  14. Hardest decision I’ve ever made
    The hardest decision I’ve ever made is when I am going to be a 2nd year high school, I don’t know if I’m going back here at the seminary because I want to study or transfer at La Salette School but my mom, dad, and my grandmother don’t want me to transfer, and I don’t know if I will transfer or not, but a very special priest approach me and he told his own life story when he was still a seminarian and because of that I was inspired to come back again into the Seminary. I thank him for that inspiring seminary life story. 

  15. well for me maybe the hardest decision I have ever made in my life is whether or not I will enter the seminary my choice for me ,was either to leave my family behind and enter the seminary for 4 years of formation (now with extra 2 years) or stay with my family and have a normal high school life outside. While I was given time to think I thought about the positives and negatives if I will enter the seminary and I also thought about the positives and negatives of not entering the seminary and staying at my old school but knowing myself I was curious about what the seminary is and what they do in the seminary so I chose to enter the seminary and as far as I know I'm don't have any regrets. the reason why I chose this as the hardest decision in my life is because as I have said it was either to leave my family behind and go to formation on my own.

  16. To Be a Seminarian

    To become a seminarian is my hardest decision in my life because life is a big and hard challenge. You are away from your home/family and you need to sacrifice time for your family.

  18. Entering Seminary

    My hardest decision in life is entering the seminary because its a matter of leaving your family and put limits on your freedom or learn new things and be independent in life. I want to learn new things but I also want freedom so I need to sacrifice one important thing to achieve another thing.

  19. The Hardest decision that I've made in my life is that when I am about to enter the seminary. In the first place, I want to enter the seminary, but when the time Vocation Day arrives, my mom told me to try it. In that time, I knew that entering the seminary is very lonely and it is my first time to be separated from my parents. Either way, I entered because it is fun inside it's 4 walls. :D

  20. Hi I'm Ardy, 14 years old. And my most hardest decision I ever made is when I had my girlfriend at my house. This was the story.

    One day I was surprised when I was just chatting her then suddenly she said she wants to stay at my house for a while because her parents and siblings have business to go into. I asked my parents and they said yes. When she came after that day she came my father had to go overtime at work then my mother and my little brother is going on a field trip. I have to actually join my mom but I'm worried about my girlfriend she's going to be lonely here and if I stay my mom will feel bad. But when I told my parents my decision they actually said ok I will actually stay I thought I need to go with them but my parents said someone had to guard the house. Then that was it I actually thought it was going to be a hard decision but no it wasn't I actually jumped to conclusions so quickly.

    So Lesson Learnt Don't jump to conclusions yet...

  24. The Hardest Decision I have made in my life is to enter the seminary because I know that I need to sacrifice my time, my happiness and my freedom. Inside the seminary everything has a limit you need to use your time well and there is a schedule for every thing that you do. But I also know that all that we do here inside the seminary is connected for being a priest their training as to be ready for are future life being a priest or a good christian. So being inside the four walls of the seminary is also good because it will change you to became a good person and a christian as well.

  25. Hardest Decision in Life.

    For now, I think that my hardest decision is to decide what was my hardest decision in life. There are so many decisions in life but I don't know what is my hardest decision. I still have a lot of decisions to encounter in my life. Maybe it is not the time for me yet to make decisions by myself. I still need guidance. So that is one of the reasons why I entered the seminary, "To Be INDEPENDENT". :D

  27. Hello. My name is Eugene Jethro C. Dion and I'm here to tell you my hardest decision I've ever made in my entire life. My hardest decision in my entire life is when my father asked me if i wanted to enter the seminary in Binmaley, Pangasinan. But i told my dad that i will think carefully. I almost tell my dad that I wanted to say "NO". But I realised that if I declined what he wanted, I think that my mom and dad will be disappointed. And so I entered the seminary, but suddenly, I liked my first year in the seminary. But when i was now on the 2nd year of high school in the seminary. I'm starting to miss my relatives especially my family. But then I asked myself what is happening to me. I asked God for strength. Then I asked myself if i still wanted to continue my vocation. And it feels like i'm not called to be a priest. And so I started to think what is my decision, but I still don't have a decision. And so I just continued this vocation, and I'm waiting to finish this School Year. And so Life goes on.

  28. "Hardest Decision I Have Ever Made in My Life... So Far..."
    An activity about making a short essay about the title above given by our very own English 8 teacher, Sir Juan Primitivo Petrola (or the other name that we like to call him, "Sir JP")

    All throughout my life, I have faced and made a lot of hard decisions and choices. And of course, none of these were easy and therefore all of them were, in a simple word, hard. Making the right decision always took a lot of time, a lot of thinking, a lot of headaches, a lot of stress, a lot of emotional and dramatic scenes, a lot of reflections, a lot of predictions, a lot of studying, a lot of inferring from so many references either from books, the internet and also from the people around me like my parents, friends and people who have experience and reliable knowledge and understanding of the decisions that I may choose, a lot of talking with my self, a lot of praying and then eventually after going through all of these I end up making a decision that will stick and stay with me for the rest of my life. Sounds kinda hard just by reading my own experience, doesn't it? But in the end of every decision making, you'll just have to trust your guts and pray to God that in making that decision, you are keeping yourself on the right path which is to make and do something good not only for yourself but also for the good of those people around you.

    So, after going through that long talk about decisions lets go back to the reason why I started this post.

    So far in my life the hardest decision that i can think of and remember making is that of deciding whether to join the school press conference activity that was going to last for three days or to stay in the seminary and finish my own obligations and problems there. The reason why this got so difficult for me is that because that competition that was offered to me was worth a great amount of points for my extra-curricular and that i know that when i join that i would gain more experience and Knowledge that would help me grow in becoming a better writer. On the other hand, i was also pulled away from making this decision an easy one by my own responsibilities and problems in the seminary, to be more precise, in my academics. I since then was already a person who was poisoned by the by the hard to remove attitude "Maniana Habit". Therefore i stacked up for my self a lot of unfinished work to be done necessary for our academic assessment and evaluation. in the end i was forced, not by anyone but by myself to make the decision of staying here in the seminary to finish all my obligations and to say good bye to that opportunity to gain so many things. just now in writing this essay, i have realized and have seen what other good things of that of the decision of going to that competition because i just realized now that that is the better decision to make. now that it is already too late, i only have in my self little and small regrets in making that wrong decision. i guess i have to sometimes forget the past. but still, im going to carry with me this moral lesson that you too should think of and that is to do first your responsibilities so that later on these responsibilities wont become your required obligations and activities that need to be done A.S.A.P.

    By the way, im sorry if the last part was a bit of a mess, i was running out of time so i had to speed up even if that ment being sloppy and careless. that just life in the seminary, time is time! and that time is gold, so im not going to waste it. haha :)

    lastly another hard decision that i have made that battled its way to my top list of hard decisions being made was making the decision of what to put in this essay as my hardest decision made. haha :). just wanted to share.

    THANKS FOR READING AND GOD BLESS...

  29. Sir sorry I don't have an account so I'm using Jethro's account - Jamuel H. Soriano

    My hardest decision is if I will enter the seminary. Honestly, before I entered the seminary, I wasn't used to being not with my family. I would be so sad if ever I'm alone in the house without any of my sibling with me. My parents persuaded me to enter and join the seminary community. At first, I was so puzzled and didn't know what I'll do. I wanted to tell my parents that, if possible, we could search for different schools that i could enter but because I was shy, I didn't have the guts to tell my parents that I wanted to do that. Time passed by and I was still wondering if I would tell my parents. But then I realized, why not try for only a year? Why not tell my parents after 1 school year? That's when I decided to tell my parents that I will really try it there.
    After 1 week, I would be going to the seminary. I asked myself if I made the right decision. I was scared to say goodbye to my family but I wanted to make them proud. Those thought were contradicting and battling inside my mind. I gathered my courage and I made my final decision which is to try. My decision wasn't a mistake. I am now a Grade 8 Seminarian and I am enjoying it here and here I will stay.

  30. Letting Somethings Go.....

    Since I let go of things go I feel like i lost a part of myself that made a new person. Letting the formation inside me changes me and makes me a servant and son God. Sometimes in my life i regret letting it come in me, but it doesn't get out that fast. The life of mine wasn't what i planned but as i move forward i receive blessings that i never expected. This decision that i made, gave me a long time to decide because of if made this decision i may lose people, things, and maybe memories that i love since the first time i went there

  33. The Hardest Decision I Have Ever Made


    The hardest decision I have ever made was whether I would enter the seminary or not.
    You see, I never wanted to enter the seminary. My father was the one who did. After enrolling my brother here at the Mary Help of Christians Seminary, he said that someday, I would also enter the seminary. I was in third grade then. At my first thoughts, I wasn't really bothered by it, but after proceeding to my fifth grade, I realized that if I would enter the seminary, I would leave behind my friends and my family which I thought I can't. Which leads me to asking my parents why I needed to enter the seminary. They said that I need to be disciplined and that staying at the seminary was the best choice because they said that at the seminary, I will be closer to God. But I did not understand then. They talked to me politely about the matter, and in a matter of weeks, Before ending the school year of 2013-2014, I finally understood that all they wanted was for me to not only be a better son and a friend but also to be a better christian. I once again talked to my parents and they were gladden by the news.


    I learned that it was not an accident that I was here at the seminary but the calling of God to be a seminarian - a follower of Christ. I also learned that in order to follow Him, I would need to sacrifice time for my family and friends.
