This AND That?

So many Pastors and Christian leaders are endeavoring to show their parishioners that the show "Scandal" is not compatible with the Gospel of Christ, but not with much success.


Faith comes by hearing the Word of God, and the Word of God speaks emphatically against adultery and fornication. We understand that whatever you feed yourself on a consistent basis is what you will become or meditate on. Therefore, how can so many Christ followers be so obsessed with a show that is centered around infidelity and mischief.


In growing, there is always room to examine ourselves and see if we are truly in the faith. Apostle Paul was always appealing to the mature saint to model the faith for the weaker ones.


A simple question to be considered is whether "Scandal" feeds your spirit or your flesh. Then you can make the decision if it is compatible with the Gospel and discern why so many are addicted to it.
We can all ask ourselves if we are as addicted to reading and studying our Bibles as we are to our favorite TV shows.


Just wondering...


Does it matter anymore what Jesus said,
Or have His teachings all been considered as dead?
Either His words are a light unto our feet or not,
Or have you designated them to your blind spot?
He said that He is the way, the truth and the life.
So, have you decided that He is not right?
It can't be this and that...you must make a choice,
And then you must support it with your actions and your voice.
