I am now a simple Grandpa who's life is made richer as each grandchild is born. My wife and I have raised five children and the 30 year love labor of raising them has begun to yield sweet fruit..... And then there are fruits of 30 years in ministry ... I am a satisfied old man full of the joy of the Lord.

To avoid filter blocks I am calling this deadly eye candy

I posted a commet today to the excellent web site called Sonspot. He wrote a short item on the dearth of visual sin and its effects upon the church. Here are my comments ..."deadly eye candy" is in all ways one of the worst of the plagues that are upon the "church" First you peek, then you sneak, and you end up a creep. The "eye is never satisfied." We must do like Job. We (the spiritual and righteous believer) must "make a covenant with our eyes." (Job 31:1) If you are into "deadly eye candy" you are unable to walk under any anoiting. You are correct in saying, "light" is snuffed out in this type of man's thinking. This undermines all power and conviction in the church and like secret abortion leads to compromise with the "false light" of the worlds wisdom. Thanks for posting this blog. You are in my "top 100" bolg list.

The name of Sonspots item is Desensitizing the Spirit. He is quoting another web site called All Things Possible. It just touches the tip of the iceberg that this subject brings up. I think I will muse over this and add comments about this subject on a regular basis. More to come tonight.

Sprucegoose,

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I think pornography is one of those "secret" sins that ruin many, otherwise healthy, Christians. A lot of it has to do with sociatal acceptance, at least, in the beginning.
