- As
always, I am launching a campaign to encourage you to screen
carefully what your children see on television.
The visual can circle right
around the conscience and those impressions may never leave that
little mind.
There are some disastrous commercials
that no child should see - half naked bodies, sassy children
rewarded and parents demonized, and unabashed appeal to the lust
of the eyes - buy this, buy that.
Your children should not have a
television in a bedroom where they watch unsupervised. If they
do, take it out now and explain that you have not understood
that there is a better way. Your children should not watch tv
in your house without your awareness of each commercial and each
part of each program.
Our children must be prepared
to serve the Lord? How will that happen when we have a generation
of "Christian" children who eat meal after meal in
front of a television? How can they be soldiers of the Cross
when their minds are under an intense brainwashing, whether you
realize it or not?
How can a young child know
the longing to have his flesh crucified when that flesh is being
force-fed all time?
Do you understand that
little boys should not be looking at sensuous women selling underwear?
Do you understand that little girls should not either? It brings
them both to a place of thinking which the enemy will fertilize
each chance he gets.
This issue is critical, and it
is out of hand with a run-away vengeance in the western church
today. It is an emergency.
The visual is incredibly powerful.
As time winds down, let us
protect our children. Let us sing with them, and talk about the
contrast between the things that God loves, and the things that
the world promotes.
Spend yourself so that your
children can see Jesus.
