Pastor G Craige Lewis described entertainment in his video The Truth Behind Hiphop 6 as containing two words 'detained' and 'entry'. So in short entertainment can be described by the phrase 'detained for entry'. So as we detain ourselves infront of the telly or radio, what are we allowing to enter? Just think about it for a moment... What is there nowadays on the airwaves???
So, the next time I/you sit to watch your favorite program, evaluate the themes that it is teaching you... Love or lust, contentment or covetousness, morals or immorality, peace or fear, love or malice, godliness or carnality. I must admit this wasn't an easy message to hear, having been a tube addict since forever, i had to reconsider what i was feeding myself...
He went on further to say that we get so clouded in entertainment that we forget the things of God, we don't have the desire to seek, follow or love God and we find ourselves compromising on so many things. The next time you feel like this, check what you're feeding yourself.
Thanx for taking the time to read this, let me know how entertainment has detained you...
