God's ELECT, and or few ?
mark:
Brothers and sisters, as I said , it's between you and GOD.
Joe, you ask, what are we to do? GOD say's to "ABSTAIN from ALL APPEARANCE of EVIL." [1 thess.5:22]
In; [2.Jn.9,10,11] we read; "whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ , hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. [10]-If there come ANY unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive HIM NOT into your HOUSE, neither bid him God speed:[11]-for he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
The WORD of GOD tells US, TO NOT INVITE someone INTO OUR "HOUSE", who ABIDETH NOT in the DOCTRINE OF CHRIST'. Do the [people] on your [tv] SCREEN, ABIDE in the doctrine of Christ ? Let's be true to GOD .
In [revelation .18:4]- And I HEARD another VOICE FROM HEAVEN, saying COME OUT of her MY PEOPLE, That ye be NOT PARTAKERS of her SIN'S, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
"I Will set no WICKED thing before mine eyes: I hate the WORK of THEM that TURN aside:It shall not CLEAVE to me. [psalm 101:3]
"Who is winning the battle for your childs HEART? GOD or the [TV].
"Casting down IMAGINATIONS, and every HIGH THING that EXALTETH itself against the KNOWLEDGE of GOD, and bringing into CAPTIVITY "EVERY THOUGHT" to the "OBEDIENCE OF Christ"; [2Cor.10:5]
"And be NOT CONFORMED to this WORLD: BUT be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING of your MIND that ye may PROVE what is that GOOD and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, WILL of GOD" [rom.12:2]
In "[Jer.10:1,2,3],..... the O house of Israel:thus said the Lord , LEARN NOT THE WAY OF THE HEATHEN............For the CUSTOMS of the PEOPLE are VAIN.......
Have you noticed your children developing more of an interest in the Bible , after a steady diet of television.
Who is the HEAD of your FAMILY . YOU are the PROTECTOR
of your family against evil influences in your HOME, no one else!
"If ye then be risen with Christ, SEEK those THINGS which are ABOVE,{SPITURAL}, Where Christ sitteth on the right hand of GOD. SET your "AFFECTION on THINGS ABOVE, "NOT" on THINGS ON THE EARTH".[Col.3:1-2]
"Woe unto them that call evil GOOD, and good EVIL; that put DARKNESS for LIGHT, and LIGHT for DARKNESS; that put BITTER for SWEET, and SWEET for BITTER" [Isa.5:20]
"See then that ye walk" circumspectly, "[looking round on all sides watchfully, cautious, prudent.],["prudent"-cautious and wise in conduct;discreet, dictated by FORETHOUGHT.] not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the TIME, because the days are EVIL. [Ephes.5:15-16]
"Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it." [prov.22:6]
brothers and sisters , you say that sin is everwhere , I agree, 100%. kevin, you ask ?...must we now literally pluck out our eyes? NO , brother, WE must set our SIGHT on the RIGHT HAND of GOD, Jesus Christ , OUR PRECIOUS LORD and SAVIOUR, of ALL mankind.
'television is of this world, BIG TIME, WHO does GOD say HAS HIS KINGDOM here on earth ? SATAN!
brothers and sisters , seek GOD with ALL your HEART, ALL your SOUL , and ALL your MIND, 24-7, I pray that GOD the Father of OUR Lord and SAVIOUR, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit IS witnessing to you, YOU must DIE to the FLESH, lust, desires of this world, in order to be of the chosen few , and or elect. GOD Bless YOU ALL. mark.
Joey Porter:
May I say that there is much more, and much more severe, content contained on the internet that will lead us astray when compared with the television, and we are all here on it. So, I would think the interent would be much higher than the television, on the list of things to discard...
Kevin:
So true Joey
Joey Porter:
But that's not to belittle or mock what Mark posted. Perhaps God has brought him to a place in which he wants him do abstain from all television for a specific purpose...
Kevin:
Absolutely Joey,
We are to abstain from all appearance of evil. Only through God working in us can we do this. For I can do nothing on my own.
