Do Not Read The News If You Can’t Handle It –
These Are The Reasons Why!
The Repetition Wears You Away – It Attacks And Undermines Your Faith – And Your Affection For Jesus Can Eventually Go Into Freeze State That’s Difficult To Ease – Because You Love Him You Try To Overcome This And It Is However Difficult – So Do Be Informed:
Constant Exposure To The News Can Wear You Down And Subtly Chip Away At Your Faith, One Piece At A Time In The Back Of Your Mind Without You Realising It – Kind Of Deprogramming Your Faith In God’s Nature Whereby You Find Yourself Losing Confidence In His Love For Mankind And Good-Will. Then Your Usual Confidence In His Loving Care And Concern Toward You Can Fail You.
So Don’t Under-Rate This Caution, Thinking You’re Strong, Can Handle It Because News Programs Were Deliberately Designed By God’s Arch Enemy And Ours. In Defiance To God And His Enmity For Mankind Because We Were Made In His Image.
No kidding, News Media is one of the main reasons why “The Love of Many will go Cold” and already is. So “Be Vigilant” Believers because some News Items are pretty LETHAL when it comes to Faith. We need to Really TRUST The Lord in these End-Times. News Programs don’t Encourage that TESTIMONIES and SCRIPTURES do. And ALL the Good Things you can Think of. Philippians 4:8
News Programs Discourage Us and Promote Anxiety. Philippians 4:6 says to take ALL your Anxieties to The Lord, NOT to Keep Adding to them! Did you get that? This is Wise advice Friends!
Because News Programs Are Inundated With Even Worse Content Than Ever Before, This CULPRIT Is Absolutely NOT To Be Underestimated. Certain Items Can Not Only Chill Your Spine When You Witness Them – They Can Cripple Your Faith Or Disturb Your Love And Affection For
The Lord Whom We Do Love And Adore So Much.
Mark These Words And Heed This Warning Friends: News Programs Were Not Only Designed To Keep People From Believing In God,
They Are Now – In Recent Years – A Constant Threat To BELIEVERS To Weaken OUR FAITH (Progressively) And Can Prove To Be A Lethal Weapon Against You In This Respect.
Certain News Items Are Aimed At Your “Trust In God” And Your Faith Hinges 100% On Your Trust Level – They Are Closely Related, Inseparable – Even His Words That Strengthen Our Faith Have To Do With Our Trust. And Our “LOVE For HIM” Has To Do With “OUR TRUST” Also.
So Please Don’t Underestimate How News Programs Can Dismantle The “FAITH You Have In JESUS” Because These Days, It Is A Hidden But Obvious Threat To How Healthy Your Faith Is.
So DO Be Aware Of The Danger.
Due Warning: And If You Are Not Engaging In Regular Scripture Reading Every Day But Reading The News, It Is Definitely A Lethal Threat To KEEPING FAITH Because You Are Leaving Yourself Without Backup To Your Faith – Therefore Vulnerable To Unbelief That Can Invade Your Thought Processes Through EXTREMELY NEGATIVE and PROVOCATIVE News Media. The Devil’s Best Weapon!
Don’t Believe Me? How-come This Happened To So Many Christians? As The Adage Says: The Proof Is In The Pudding. Something to Consider.
Same goes for watching SOAPYS like The Bold and Beautiful etc (TV Series) with so much Sensual Provocation……. Arguments and Adultery…….. Why would you want Your Mind Programmed for the Same Things basically? The Possibility is There When Those are The Types Of Things You Are Feeding Your Ear-Gate and Eye-Gate With. Again, The Proof Is In The Pudding – There Has Never Been So Much Discord and Distrust In Marriages; So Many Many Break-Ups In Marriages and Unrest In Families Since So Many Series Like That Started. Yes, Even In Christian Marriages. It’s Hardly The Type Of Viewing SCRIPURE Would Encourage Anyway, When You Consider These Things, Is It? So Many Soapy Episodes and Movies (Over Time) From Sin-Laden Hollywood and Other Telecasts, Set-You-Up For COMPROMISE. Be Warned!
Be Aware: TV (Television) Viewing Is Like Ordering A Meal At A Restaurant: Why Would You Want To Order Something Your Tastebuds Don’t Like OR That Is BAD For Your Health? Choose Programs Wisely!
Again I Say: These Things Are Risky Business As Far As The Devil Is Concerned: He Planned The News Programs; Those Episodes and Movies That Way – Intentionally, So He Could Reap A Bonanza Crop Of FEAR and ANXIETY; Strife, Seduction and Discord; Temptation and Broken Marriages Etc. It’s ALL THERE On Those TV SCREENS – What We See Taking Place In People’s Lives and Families!
Listen To Me Friends: It’s Kinda Like The Devil Has Temptations On Auto-Pilot? And That’s Exactly What It Is, Much Of The Time. Must Save His Cohorts A Lot Of Work!?
Be Aware: TV (Television) Viewing Is Like Ordering A Meal At A Restaurant: Why Would You Want To Order Something Your Tastebuds Don’t Like OR That Is BAD For Your Health?
Don’t Believe Me? It Happened To My Dad. He Was A Family Working Man Years Ago In TV Sales and Service When He Had To Hear and See So Much Of Those Kind Of Programs When He Was Fixing The Performance Of Picture, Sound and Stations in The Workshop, Days and Evenings. This Programmed His Mind For Discontents.
He Was Alright As A Mechanic; Then As A Electrician – Visiting Homes When Women Were In Attendance; Then Repetitions Of Temptations Were His Down-Fall and That Of Our Family When He Engaged In The Work I Describe As A TV Sales & Serviceman.
It’s Kinda Like The Devil Has Temptations On Auto-Pilot? And That’s Exactly What It Is, Much Of The Time.
Must Save His Cohorts A Lot Of Work!?
He Went Into Two Defacto Relationships, Then Married A Third Woman.
By The Way, I Found Out Years Later, She Had Been Divorced and Had An Evangelical Christian Background. My Dear Mum Even Had A Phone Call From Two Of Those Women’s Spouses “What Was My Dad Doing Messing With Their Marriage?” A Whopping Lot Of Temptation Programmed Into His Mind and Emotions, That’s What. Mum Mentioned These Things To Me Much Later In Life, NOT When I Was Young. Something For Parents To Remember.
Note Friends: This Happened To A Working Family-Man. My Mum Was A Very Good Woman. She Helped Him In Business By Taking Care Of Phone Calls; Keeping Hot Meals For Him Often When He Had Late Service Calls; They Went To Country Square Dances (Barn Dance) Husbands and Wives Attended?
The POWER Of TEMPTATION Through The TV Screen Repeatedly, That’s What! It Does NOT Make For Happy Marriages!
As A Christian, Why Would You Watch That Stuff? Tell Me? No, Don’t Tell Me, Tell The Lord Your God.
Same Goes For Violence. All This Isn’t What You Call Good Healthy Christian Viewing, Is It?
In Fact, There Isn’t Much Of That On Those Wretched TV’s Hey?
“Temptation For Entertainment” Does Not Even Make Sense, When We Think About It –
Yet That’s Exactly What God Sees Taking Place In The Processes Of “Christian” Hearts and Minds, Friends.
Maybe TVs Are The Devil’s Box After-all, Like Some Old-Time Religions Used To Call It. They Wouldn’t Be Far Wrong These Days Would They? Yes Choose Your Programs Wisely Or You’re Better Off Without Those TVs. That’s What Dad Realised Years Later. He Repented – Not Only To God But To His Real Family Members As Well (that’s True Repentance) and He Proudly Referred To My Mum As His True Mrs _________ To Nurses When My Mum (Such A Forgiving Person) Visited Him In Hospital Later In Life. My Mum Came Home And Reported This With Joy.
After Losing My Pride In and Respect For My Dad At Such An Early Age, The Way He TRULY Repented Is The One Thing I Respect Him For – Apart From Being An Honest and Generous Sales Person, Who Also Used To Raise Funds For A Country Hospital Before The Medical “Industry” Became So Lucrative. No Wonder The Word “Divorce” Is Still Very Uncomfortable For Me To This Day – It Feels Ouchy! – Mind You, I Did Experience A Full-Swing Major Nervous Breakdown At The Age Of 14.
Do You Still Want To Risk Those News Programs: NOT ME!
Or The Constant Viewing Of Those Soapys and Movies? Because Trust Me, The Constant Repetitious Exposure Can And Does Make INROADS Into Your Thought Processes – That’s One Good Reason We Are Taught To Guard Our “Most Holy Faith” In Scripture.
So Do Guard And Build Up Your Faith With SCRIPTURE Daily (The GOOD NEWS) We Are Strongly To Go With The GOOD REPORT Found In Scripture Not By The Bad Report (Found On The News – Bad News)
Needless To Say, My Dad Had No Time For TV Later In Life – Neither Do I For Decades – I Find More Interesting and Healthy Things In The WISE-USE Of Internet Like YouTube Gardening and Recipe Videos and Natural Health and Crafts……Attending To My Websites Of-Course; Reading Books On The Same Topics – No Magazines Full Of Gossip _ Who Needs TV For Entertainment?
Consider This: How May People Say They Don’t Have Much Time To Do Things They Would Like To?
And How Much Time Could Be Made Available Without So Much TV Viewing? I’ve Conversed With People In Shopping Centres Who Do This – Like Me – And Say How Much More They Enjoy Their Weeks. Could Be Something Worth Thinking About?
So-Called Child TV Programs Often Encourage Squabbles Between Kids; Disrespect To Parents; Dishonesty; Distrust Towards Friends. Cartoons Contain So Much Mindless Lunacy; Disruption And Violence. Walt Disney Had One Of The Most Evil Imaginations Of Anyone Who Has Lived When It Comes To Kids. The Simpsons Encourage So Much Disrespect; Immorality; Blasphemy; Mockery and Slander and Godless Speech.
No Wonder Bible Says “Friendship With The World – Sin Laden Standards – Is EMNITY With God?
The SAME Goes For A LOT Of CONTENT On TV. We Can Do Without That. Can’t We? If We’re Looking Forwards To Jesus Coming and The Hope Of Eternal Life. How Much Time Do All Those Hours Of TV Viewing Leave For Prayer OR Reading Scripture That Strengthens Your Faith? And How Many News Items Add To Stress and Disturb Your Peace?
And Please Note: TV Screens DO NOT Make Good “Baby Sitters” When You Want To Keep Your Kids “Occupied”……… How Dangerous? Anything Can Come On The Screen! Nursing Homes Sometimes Witness That Who Want To Keep Their Residents Occupied. I Sometimes Had To Turn The Station For Them When Visiting Nursing Homes Years Ago, Due To Disturbing Content.
I’m Not Trying To Hinder You, I’m Trying To Help Your Spiritual Growth and Health of Your Family-Life.
FRIENDS: If You Do Not Pray Often Each Day; You Don’t Read Scripture Much; And You Don’t Keep Company With At-Least One Or Two Believers Who Really LOVE JESUS…… You Are Vulnerable To Losing Your Faith. How Can God Help You If You Are Disobeying All Three Or Two Of Three? So You Need To Take These Things Seriously!
“Oh but God’s Grace Will Protect Me” You Say? It Is God’s Grace That Is Reaching Out To You Now “Don’t Keep Violating His Grace and Expecting Everything To Be OK – God Doesn’t Mind, Because He Does!” I Assure You – Faith And Salvation Are Not To Be Taken Lightly (For Granted)
It’s The Most Precious Privilege We Have On This Earth.
So Stop: Threatening Your Faith; Stop Disrespecting It; Neglecting It and Taking It For Granted. Because Truth Of The Matter Is:
If You Do These Things, You Don’t REALLY LOVE JESUS. You Need To Take A Good Look At These Matters and REPENT.
To Everyone Else I Say: So You Feel Confidant, Saying “None Of This Applies To Me!” Kinda like “I Watch/Read The News And It Doesn’t Affect Me” and “I Keep Doing That, Sometimes It’s Really Hard” and Later “It’s So Hard, It’s Really Difficult, But I’m Ok” later “Oh I’m So Upset By This and That News Item. I May Get Over It Because I Have Before” then later “BANG” The Enemy Has Hijacked Your Faith when You Pressed Things Too Far! NOTE: He Achieves This By Working At It In INCREMENTS Known AS “The Daily News” And You Thought You Could Handle It; It Got Really Hard But You Still Subjected Yourself To It. News Episodes Are Like LANDMINES, You Don’t Know If/When You’ll Step On One.
In This Day and Age, The Words Of The Apostle Paul Still Calls Load and Clear “Be NOT Ignorant Of The Enemy’s DEVICES” and the Worst One Is The News Programs. Consider This Article Like A BUYER BEWARE NOTICE……Don’t Buy Into The Sneaky Trick “I Have To Watch/Read The News” and To Some Of You I Say:
Why Do You Say To Yourself “I Have To Watch The News…..AND…..I Don’t Have To READ SCRIPTURE” Why Do You Do That? I Have One Thing To Say About That: What A Dangerous Combination (Mostly Bad Reports and Very Little GOOD Reports) Don’t Do That!
I Hope This Article Helps Many Christians Protect Their Faith.
You Have Heard Everything I Have To Say. Now I Suggest You Go And Pray!
