I haven't watched much tv. I don't usually. I have when I was ft.knox but most of that was old reruns of shows.

Do you think that others on this forum are likely to come to the same conclusion, whether about TV/videos of preaching, movies or whatever...?

Yes, we have to find our own path to conscientious comfort, as before the Lord.

Blessings.

let me ask? what is actually edifying on tv that doesn't glorify sin, denigrate us?

I'm sure I have seen good preachers such as Dr James Kennedy, and various others.

I do like historical and geographical documentaries also.

I agree that there is a lot of garbage.

Its been this way for a long time.. one day about nine years ago i asked the Lord to fix my broken parts and pieces.. after that i had no interest in those things.. I'm thinking He filled those empty places..

Sounds really good. It's good to be personally sensitive to what seems to be the Lord's leading.

The doesn't always convict everyone in exactly the same way, though (although basic doctrine from Scripture won't differ significantly if the Spirit leads).

mom knew i was a pill.... in the 60 movies were still a sin... mom having some God given wisdom did not tell me DO NOT GO TO THE MOVIES... i would have found a way to see every one,.... What she said was 'dont go see a movie you wouldn't take Jesus with ya to see....

A lovely way of putting it .

(If dramatized, I guess some of the Old Testament events would seem a bit raw...)

theres a lot of places and things we do that sadly we shouldn't have jesus with us. ie lounges and bars. secular concerts, and also sports events. we have liberty but if we are really honest its getting harder and harder these days to exercise that liberty because sins abounds.

we have been using videos on the bible and screen them beacause of age issues not that any of them glorify sin. a four year old doesn't need to know what adultery is.

elvis,lol. I used to go a church that converted many of his songs to worship songs

ie heartbreak motel=since the devil left me.

 

[reba]

LOL how fun

Reminds me a bit of an analogy of an asymmetrical chandelier ear pedant worn on one side with an ear stud on the other. Kind of going different places...

the founder of the church liked elvis. he did three or more of those songs and god used them to bless. I cant remember the others. they have live videos from the 60's and 70s of this. he used to broadcast his services live back then.

I still have a letter from Elvis tucked away in my keepsakes.I wrote him a fan letter when I was 7.I am pretty sure that Elvis did not write it.It was probably the Colonel.
