DISCLAIMER:
1. This video is not meant to say that all forms of entertainment or television are inherently evil. Instead, it is preaching against much of the immorality that is found on TV, and strongly warning Christians not to partake of it.
2. This video is NOT saying that anyone who watches something sinful on TV is not a real Christian or is not saved. Rather, it is a call to examine yourself, to see if there is sin or compromise in your life in finding enjoyment by watching the things that God hates. If you habitually spend much time being satisfied by watching immorality on TV on a regular basis and you do not get grieved over any of it, then that could possibly be evidence that you are not truly saved (2 Cor. 13:5). Christians should devote themselves to renewing their minds and pursuing holiness (Rom. 12:1-2, Heb. 12:14). We should walk worthy of our calling. We should NOT waste our lives by blending in with the world! If you are a real Christian but are living in compromise, this is a call to deeper repentance and deeper devotion to God.
3. This video is certainly NOT teaching that non-Christians can be saved by simply shutting off their TV or throwing it away. A sinner can only be saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. Justificaiton is by faith. However, the truth is that once someone is truly saved, their heart is changed, and they will no longer delight in sin and immorality and wickedness as a lifestyle. With judicial justifcation comes practical sanctification (a separation from sin and devotion to rightouesness). Therefore, again, to habitually delight in wicked things on TV as a constant practice is a question of where one's faith is truly at. If you love Jesus, you will keep His commandments, He said.
4. If this video makes you angry, it could be that it's speaking to you, and you're the very one who needs to hear its message!
5. Don't post a comment and criticize the video if you are habitually doing exactly what it's preaching against, just because you don't like how it exposes your lifestyle. Your comment has no weight at all if you are indulging in the sins here preached against, and we have only reason to believe that you're trying to justify sinful practice.
DESCRIPTION:
Paul Washer and David Wilkerson preach against the wickedness of much of what is found on TV, and against the compromises of many American Christians who love to watch the very things that God despises. The Psalmist said in God's Word: "I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me" (Psalm 101:3). Do you set wicked things before your eyes and take pleasure in viewing them? Have you delighted in an abomination before the Lord? Are you guilty of idolatry?
---------------------------------------- ------------------------ Our mission and ministry is to glorify God by spreading the knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all and laboring to take the message of the Cross to places where people most desperately need Jesus. We earnestly combat the lies of modern false gospels and seek to establish and promote sound biblical truth in all places.
Our burden is to reach Mexico with the Gospel. We do this through frontline evangelism, open air preaching, leading Bible studies, preaching in churches, and training other believers to share their faith effectively. We focus on making disciples who in turn will bear long-term fruit for the glory of God. We also distribute solid biblical literature in Spanish and free Bibles to those who dont own one.
We are praying that you will get involved and help us carry the glorious Good News of Jesus to the people of Mexico. There are numerous ways you can help: Pray for us, inform your church about our work, join our e-mail newsletter, become a missionary, or hold the rope as we go down in! Check out our website, www.puregospeltruth.com, to learn more about us.
MAY THE LAMB WHO WAS SLAIN RECEIVE THE REWARD OF HIS SUFFERING!!! ---------------------------------------- -----------------------

How sad. Your words are hateful. I hope you don't call yourself a Christian with such hateful words and witchcraft you are trying to speak on his family.
You speak of hateful words and yet... Paul (brain) Washer spews nothing nothing but contempt, vitriol and condemnation on anything and everything that doesn't conform to his pinched view of existence. But it's okay for him to launch those missiles, right?
Well I shouldn't be surprised given your branding of my comments as witchcraft. No doubt you would have been first to light the fires that burned anyone accused of "witchcraft" during the dark ages.
Do you actually think I'm a witch? For real? If so, this is very telling about the degree to which paranoia and superstition has captured you. Are you even remotely aware how controversial Washer is even among some fundamentalist Christians? -- and to moderate Christians he is downright offensive. Then Imagine how insane he must sound to atheists. It doesn't require witchcraft to give him the same verbal bitch-slapping he himself loves to hand out to everyone else.
@sweetsweat ... are you on this video too? I see you on many Christian videos always spewing out your vitriol. I really think maybe you gotta vendetta against all Christians. If you are right, we Christians lose NOTHING when we die, but if we are right YOU BURN IN HELL FOREVER! Thats quite a gamble! Im not being hateful either, just telling the truth! God is still giving you time to repent. Do it while He is still merciful. 2 seconds in hell and you would wish you listened and repented!
Don't pull Pascal's wager shit on me, I'm wise to it. So what makes you think you are so safe? What if the Moslems are right, then YOU are going to Islamic hell, buddy. 2 seconds in and you'll wish you'd praised Allah. See, the dilemma doesn't end for Christians because other religions threaten non-believers too.
Besides if I "believe" out of fear, am I really believing or just pretending? You can't threaten your mind into genuine belief.
So is that why you "believe" - out of fear of hell?
Oh and as far as vitriol is concerned, that is all on Christianities side. Any system of beliefs that threatens you with hell if you don't submit is far worse than vitriol; it is as evil as it gets. Such a gruesome tactic to coerce belief is not the product of an advanced being but of diabolical bronze age savages (the early Catholic church) designed to manipulate the ignorant masses into submission and to force a theocratic social order.
Wow you sound like you have some pent up anger/rage in you. Im sorry I didnt mean to touch a nerve. Im not using any wager or coersion, just telling the truth. You see, I have the "expereince" of being Born Again by Gods Holy Spirit. I just dont believe it, it is something that happened to me. This does not happen to a Muslim, Buddhits, etcc... They are not born again into their faith. Only Christians are! Thats why its more than a belief to certain tenets. God confirms it in my heart.
I'm so grateful for someone like this that would rather preach the truth like Jesus did rather than pat our backs when what we are doing is hurting our walk with Christ. Have you seen what's on TV lately? It's shocking.

More time for prayer to my Lord.
No more liar TV from Fox News.
No more wasted time being brainwashed by the globalist news stations.
I WILL MISS "ANDY OF MAYBERRY" THOUGH. : (
