Sunday - Lord's Day Thoughts

We heard a message this morning on Family Devotions/Family Worship and how important they are. Father leading out supported and aided my Mom and the children seeing their unity and receiving a blessing from all of it. The whole family growing in the Lord together.

I read this week about a woman who got rid of her TV several years ago. We do not have cable or satellite. I once heard a brother preach a message on TV and why he does not have one and just made a statement that said, "I will not entertain myself with the world." That said it all for me.

Whose world is it? Jesus said Satan is the god of this world. The world is under his sway. He is a liar and the father of it.

We are called to be separate. Separated from the system, the influence, the teachings, the lies, the darkness, the hatred, anger, antichrist behavior, from the music, the entertainment, the mindset, the gnosis...SEPARATE!!!!

Just for the sake of being separate? No, without being separated UNTO CHRIST there is no real eternal aim. God has set the standards for His Kingdom...and one of them is to be separate. To be 'in' the world but not 'of' it. We, as God's people, living His Kingdom rules, are to have nothing to do with the evil deeds of darkness.

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, and will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Corinthians 6:17-18

So, I warn you, if you have not already figured it out, to take part in TV Land...any of it...is to be taught the standards of this world, it's ways and systems. And there will be no end to the base education it will feed you or your children or grandchildren. It will continue to get worse and worse. Soon all of mankind will once again do 'what is right in their own eyes'...and TV will feed right into that mentality and encourage it.

I didn't want to do an exhaustive post on TV today, I wanted to share two videos that I thought were good on the Father's role as a Watchman for his family. It is by Bro. Denny Kenaston and they totally hit the nail on the head as far as I'm concerned. So, without further ado...here they are!

The Father is a Watchman 

Pt. 1

The Father is a Watchman 

Pt. 2

These should at least stir some thoughts and conversation. 

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 the enemy of God.  James 4:4 

How can we argue against the Word of God?
