Normalized Heterosexual Fornication and Lust on TV

[Zaac]

Webdog--you got it so right!

But to answer Zaac--who says Christians are not trying to do away with heterosexual fornication and lust on tv? I know many Christian families that shun tv altogether, and some that have it but connect only to a dvd player and select only high quality shows, sans the commercials.

I'm aware of this. But the average "Christian" watching the same stuff with the same heterosexual fornication and lust that the world is watching.

But I've never seen, to be honest, any person openly engaging in adultery or fornication ask a local church to hold a ceremony to bless that, as the gays have one church in our town. Never saw, for that matter, an addict or alcoholic bring their booze or dope to church to get blessed for their relationship with it, either.

And folks keep making comments or comments akin to it. I remember Leave it to Beaver and they wouldn't even show them sleeping in the same bed. And now it's unmarried folks in bed and simulating any and everything. They don't have to ask us to bless it anymore because we watch it and have assimiltaed it into our lives as entertainment. There's not much need to say anything about Will and Grace when our kids ae watching Gossip Girl.

Now I do agree some come asking to be blessed for a second marriage without scriptural grounds for divorce from the first marriage are asking for adultery to be blessed. But hopefully very few churches would do so.

Never saw a couple that was just shacking up come and ask for a church ceremony for it, either.

They don't have to. They do it all the time on tv and we condone it.

So let us be perfectly honest: Christians are NOT all that focused on homosexuality.

Yes we are.

The gays and lesbians are bringing this fight into the church THEMSELVES, then get all offended when someone tells them NO.

If I had someone condoning by their actions every other type of sin, but pointing the finger at mine, I'd be bringing the fight to them to.

Yes we are.

Can you define "we" ?

 

[Zaac]

Can you define "we" ?

No need to. The dictionary has done that.:thumbsup:

 

[Bro. Curtis]

OK. It's just that I see YOU bring it up as much as anyone else.

No. Please Christians go ahead and keep your tvs because it is much more important that we be entertained than we be holy. That's me being facetious. :laugh:

My list, which will be ongoing, is just to show how we complain about the homosexual agenda being pushed but how overwhelmingly we've normalized heterosexual lust and fornication into our everyday existence because we aren't willing to get rid of our tvs or turn them off because we accept the heterosexual sin. Our at least our actions tend to say that we do.

Know you cannot accept what God Himself stated on this, but active homosexuality is worse than stright sexual sinning, as while ALl activities outside of the marriage bed is sin before Him, and shall be judged by Him, those in homosexuality are commiting unnatural perversions, abominations before the lord, and are engaging in acts beyond and sicker then those other ones, for they willingly violate the created natural function and order!

I know you can't accept it, but the unforgiven homosexual sinner is no worse off than the unforgiven heterosexual sinner.:thumbsup:

 

[Yeshua1]

The reason for that is one is actively trying to include us in their sin and forcing us to not only condone it, but approve and endorse it. Nobody who is fornicating is trying to politicize it.

Ding Ding Ding!

the Homosexual activists are into thechurches trying to get entire denominations and clergy endorsing their acts of perversion as being an 'acceptable alternate lifestyle", and sadly, MANY in the church have bough ttheir line, but when have we ever seen the pro murder and rape crowd in church promoting that as 'acceptable lifestyles?"

You're obviously thinking the worst because that's not why I listed the Taco Bell commercial.

It is what you are thinking…

What does your taco bell commercial got to do with heterosexual lust and fornication if you're not thinking the worst.

Again, when the church is tacitly giving its approval of everything else by our consumption of these things, why wouldn't they push to be treated the same way?

The world is acting the way that it does because the church ain't acting like followers of Christ.

I guess you're reading minds now...

If your first assumption is true, then you can read minds so you tell me.:thumbsup:

Yup. That's what I thought.

no, the big problem in this area is that the church adopted the world viewpint that Honosexuality is OK by god, just another acceptable alternate lifestyle!

Do you think jesus would endorse the bif gay metroploitian church in NY, with all of it gay pride and thanking God for their partners stuff?

Here's the actual commercial:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kjx15jewdTE

The line that so offends Zaac is the answer to the question, "Why would you ever need to eat your nachos on the go?" Answer: "Let's say her parents came home early."

So, I don't know. The guy is fully dressed and eating a nacho while running down the street. There is definitely something going on that the father of the girl is not too happy about, but it does take some imagination to decide the kid is in trouble because he was having "heterosexual fornication".

You obviously read my mind first. I was just returning the favor. It was a for short read. Got anything else?

 

[Zaac]

The church hasn't adopted THAT viewpoint. The church's viewpoint has become the same one you're attempting to sell in saying that this is the worst of the worst when it comes to sin.

No more so than He would endorse a church in metro -Detroit that creates modern day lepers.

ITL, my problem with that commercial is that it does what we have okayed the world to do for so long and that is make wrong behavior seem okay and cool.

It's become somewhat of a right of passage for the guy to sneak into the house when the parents don't know he's there. It is a theme replayed in movies again and again. And this commercial further glorifies it. But folks seem to be okay with it because it's "natural". SMH.

Exactly what is the wrong behavior here? I don't know what it is, the commercial doesn't define it.

On behalf of those on this board....

....I present to the OP the following award:

​

May he proudly display it on his man cave wall, right above his PC, in order to remind him how grateful all of us are to have a person of his caliber among us to keep us all on the right track regarding what we continually fail to see in the Word of God! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
