TO JUMP or NOT TO JUMP? - Bulletin 01-19-14


TO JUMP or NOT TO JUMP?
I’m told that in 1939, America let out a collective gasp when Rhett Butler (played by Clark Gable in the movie “Gone with the Wind”), said the now infamous curse word.  Yes.  Clark Gable cursed on the big screen!  Of all the nerve!  What’s this world coming to?  

Now, 75 years later, who cares?  We’re so used to the cursing on TV, in movies, in books, on tape, online, and in person that it hardly fazes us anymore.  True? 

But it SHOULD faze us – shouldn’t it?

Remember the age-old story of “How to Boil a Frog?”  Put a live frog in a pan of cool water and slowly turn up the heat.  If the heat rises slow enough, supposedly the frog won’t jump out.  On the other hand, if you drop a frog into boiling water – it will hop out immediately!  

Remember the names of God, EL ROI (THE GOD WHO SEES ME) and YAHWEH YIREH (THE LORD WILL PROVIDE)?  “How do we guard our hearts and our children’s hearts against TV’s bombardment of filthy language and its continual defamation of the names of GOD & JESUS?”  
  • 1. Turn off the TV or at least change the channel!
  • 2. Consider connecting a TVG unit to your TV!  (TVG stands for “TVGuardian”)  
“TVGuardian will automatically detect and filter profanity and other offensive phrases while you watch movies or television shows.”
Patti and I have used TVGuardian for over 18 years and love it!  There’s no need to have God’s name taken in vain in your own home when you can easily do something about it! www.familysafemedia.com for >information. 
JUMP!
God is good!  Mr. Steve
