We must cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the
flesh and spirit... II Corinthians 7:1
Tired of
Slop
Turn off
wrestling and spend more time in prayer with God if you want the
strength to overcome temptation and be all that God wants you to be.
As adults, we are not the only ones affected by eating the slop of
violence, but many Christians start their children eating slop
before the children can read or write. Just take a look at what the
kids are watching on Saturday mornings in many Christian homes. Take
a trip to the local video arcade in your neighborhood. Take a look
at what our church children are playing in our homes on the video
equipment purchased by their Christian
parents/grandparents/aunts&uncles. What you will see is horrific
murder with life-like action/animation - blood gushing with every
punch, kick, and knife thrust into the other guy or lady's belly.
But, to top even this, we have "Christian" churches that actually
promote violence as an organization. Take for instance, one church
in the Midwest that actually gives fighting lessons to young boys.
These lessons are given right on the church premises. You don't
believe me? First, look up the term MARTIAL ARTS. Whenever
Christians support training people in the martial arts (i.e.
Karate), these Christians are not just supporting a means for
physical discipline (as in basketball), but they are also supporting
teaching people to effectively punch and kick other humans.
The affect of eating slop does not just impact the Christian
community. American society at large is suffering because of the
over abundance of slop and the publics willingness to eat it. Why
have wrestling shows held the top rating spots so long on the cable
networks in America (the so-called Christian Nation)? Even if you
are not a Christian, the type of person you are is still based in
large part on the type of things that you repeatedly take into your
mind.
Americans keep asking the question "Why is there so much violence in
our neighborhoods, even in our children's schools?" Yet, do we
really want the answer? Remember the old saying: "You are what you
eat."
Do we want a change in our society?
Start today with a diet change. Refuse to eat slop from today
forward. Don't be ashamed to refuse slop when it is offered to you
by friends and relatives.
You cannot necessarily stop others from eating slop, but you can
control what you eat.
