Looking at Christian movie review websites tonight. Important note: these are CHRISTIAN movie reviews not secular. Most of the PG-13 movies had at least two or three misuse of God's name, a couple times paired with a curse word, and several mis-uses of Jesus name. Not to mention numerous other curse words, violence, partial nudity, and more. I won't even get into the R rated movies.
Now here is my point...almost all of these movies had at least a 3 out of 5 star rating for family friendliness.
Christian means you are not only following Christ, but completely surrendered to Him, and completely in love with Him. Who in their right mind would tolerate any form of entertainment that degraded or misused the name of the one they love and whom saved their life. Not only would you not go but it would upset you greatly to hear about it.
Yet, these "Christian" sites are giving these movies 3 out of 5 stars because they have a good message or the cinematography is good. And Christians are going to see them.
This is one of those moments where you must decide between following Christ and desiring the things of the world. But it's just a movie some might say. To this I say, "Is it?"
Jeremiah 6:16 This is what the LORD says: "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.
