100 shades of immorality


This weekend has brought a movie premiere that has raised such a hype I don't think I've ever seen it before.
And it's disgusting, absolutely pathetic; it lets me know how far away the world is from everything God truly loves .
So much for *not* objectifying women , we as young Christians will not stand for it, in fact we will not partake or endorse it in anyway.


God calls us to purity of heart and mind, and I know that with movies like this coming out and other media outlets it is a struggle for all of us young Christians to maintain our thoughts and stay away from temptation and the sin that can come from temptations.
But it is no credit to God or for our testimony for that matter to be flaunting ourselves out to the desires of this world.


'Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;' 
- 2 Corinthians 10'5

 For any of you all that will be going out with friends (or sit at home by yourself to see this movie ...  I have nothing to say to you because : it's wrong and we all know it . You know it. I know it, and most of all God knows . You say: " you can't judge me ONLY GOD can judge me"
--- well that should scare you !!!

We can't go around pretending to be someone that were not. Either we declare all our hearts for God or we don't.
It would be your best interest to question your own personal relationship with God when caught in a movie theatre with inappropriate content.  That's just something for you to think about.


 Its St. Valentine's day and although it's another example of the worlds ability to take something Christ centred and turn it into a commercialised brood of thieves [MATT23'33]. we must remember that if Jesus wouldn't do it, then we shouldn't do it.

For us young people we should think of it like this:
 the majority of our lives, we will spend valentines day with the person that God has put in our lives forever (ie: our future spouse).
So let's use the days we have now to celebrate valentine's day with our friends and family appreciating their role in our lives and appreciating God for His love in our life . Everything has its season and a time. [ECC3.]
Let's not awaken and cultivate the desires that we don't need for another couple years ...

Lastly remember this Scripture philippians 4 v 8 :' Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.'
