In 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, Paul uses a sports metaphor to discuss how it is important for us to have fundamental disciplines to perform as christians and to live in the way that God expects us to.  For an athlete, fundamentals are important for them at every level of their game.  The same is true for christianity and there are fundamentals that are to be embedded in every chrisitan's life.
