Bible verses that convict me that the T.V. is not for the Godly home

These verses along with many others that I read in the Bible are very convicting to me about the T.V. in Godly homes. So I will share them here for you.
As you read them,  think and mediate on them, and let God speak to you through them.

"Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners."
                                      1 Corinthians 15:33

"Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is an enemy of God." 
                                                 James 4:4
( you may not consider the T.V. to be your friend, but what is the difference? )

"If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God."

"Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth."
"For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God."
        Colossians 3:1-3

Turn away mine eyes from looking at worthless things, And revive me in your way.
Psalms 119:37  NKJV

"Love not  the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Farther is not in him."
"For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Farther, but is of the world."
"And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever."
 1John 3:15-17

"Finally, brethren , whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."Philippians 4:8
"All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing."       Ecclesiastes 1:8

( no wonder the t.v. and movie business is so huge!)

"Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied." 
                  Proverbs 27:20

Another thought to think on is about the many times in the old testament when God was dealing with His people the Israelites. Time and again he instructed them to destroy other nations in the lands they went into so that the evil ways of those people would not corrupt them.
 If God was so concerned at that time about His people being corrupted with evil customs and practices by heathen people, don't you think He is still concerned today about His people?

 You can only imagine what God must think of the T.V. which brings all kinds of evil right inside of ones home. (And of course much evil via the Internet as well if it is used for wrong purposes )

Let us fight against wrong and evil! And may we keep the evil out in the world where it belongs, not in our very living rooms!!
Stand strong in our God!   As always I love to hear form you and your thoughts on what I write.
Until next time,
In Him, Mae
