It seems great to have a home entertainment centre; all sorts of things to amuse us and while
away the time. There is sport, there is
drama, quiz shows and “reality T.V.” What could be better to watch in the
comfort of our homes? And it seems so
important to keep up with world events, to be in the know about what our
politicians are saying. Would we invite
a poisonous snake or a marauding bull into our homes among our family? The T.V.
is not always, but often an open sewer flooding anti-God propaganda into our
homes. It tells us we need to be young
and beautiful and spend a fortune on face creams and make-up. To put great effort
into building up our bodies, if we are men, and slimming them down to a ridiculous,
not to say unhealthy, tiny weight if we are women. It tells us we should strive to be a pop
singer, which if successful often leads to a lifestyle including drug taking.
Evolution is anti-God and there is plenty about that on the T.V. So think long and hard before you switch on
the T.V. again. And if you do switch it
on try to watch and listen with ears that want to hear what God wants for
you. Be discerning, don’t just lap it
up. Would you drink poison even if it
was laced with your favourite drink?
Would you put poison on the plate with the food your children eat? Maybe
you are allowing the T.V. to fill their heads with values and suggestions you
would prefer them not to hear and see. The T.V. is dangerous.
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
