example: by choosing the right kind of shows to watch that does not cater to our sinful desires and etc. By having the right thoughts while watching T.V. and movies etc.
Even praying or preaching or sharing the good news can be sin if you do not do it for God's glory. One wants to be preacher because of his ulterior motive to speak in public and fill his psychological needs [inferiority complex] but not for the love of saving souls and glofifying God. The action is right but the motive is wrong. Thats not glorifying God but glorifying self. Not serving God but serving self.
Do[b] ALL things for the glory of God.
That's Paul's command and it encompasses all of our lives, it says ALL.
So is watching T.V or movie flicks included in 'ALL things'? ..... of course.

The latter albums are ok. But i doubt their motives.Originally posted by breytonhartge:I like some of the songs from the later ablums.. they are not bad..
Bible also did not say cannot watch porn. It is true that Scripture does not deal with specific choices one can make, but Scripture is clear on the principles of how one should live. Outwardly Satanic lyrics are a definitely no-no. Grey areas depend on the individual's spiritual maturity.Originally posted by monoslayer:ur bible got state black n white tat cannot listen to satanic music meh?? its his choice wat.. get a life
Why? or should it be rephrased as: We shoudl also James' commands, not only Paul's?Originally posted by assfer:To Ironside: We should obey James' commands , not paul's.
Religiously themed "cliched" phrases are easily mouthed but difficult to perform and almost impossible to verify.Originally posted by dragg:i have heard christians saying they live to glorify God. but how many actually do it?
got Christian rock, Christians heavy metal etc etcOriginally posted by Chin Eng:Why? or should it be rephrased as: We shoudl also James' commands, not only Paul's?
BTW, what are your opinions (addressing to all EH forumites) on heavy metal Christian music - you know, those stuff that you cannot even make out the lyrics......
the label of Evanescence being a Christian rock band is a joke.... apparently a mistake made by a Christian website. Amy Lee denied being a ChristianOriginally posted by laurence82:got Christian rock, Christians heavy metal etc etc
