The 23rd Channel - Warning: TV Addiction..Beware :O !
The TV is my shepherd; my spiritual growth shall want.
It maketh me to lie down on the sofa and do nothing for His name's sake, because it requireth all my leisure time.
It leadeth me away from the faith; it destroys my soul.
It leadeth me into the paths of sin and violence for the TV programme's sake.
It keepeth me from fulfilling my duty as a Christian because it presenteth so many good shows that I must see.
It restoreth my knowledge of the things of the world, and keepeth me from the study of God's Word.
It leadeth me into the paths of failing to attend church and doing absolutely nothing for the kingdom of God.
Yea, though I walk in the shadow of Christian responsibilities and live a hundred years, there shall be no interruption, I will keep viewing my TV for as long as it functions, for it is my closest companion that is ever with me.
Its cable, remote control, sounds and pictures, they comfort me.
It preparest a commercial for me in the presence of my worldliness;
It presenteth entertainment before me and keepeth me from doing important things with my family.
It fills my head with ideas which differ from those in the Word of God.
It anoints my head with humanism and consumerism, my coveteousness runneth over.
Surely laziness and ignorance shall follow me all the days of my life.
No good thing will come out of my life because of so many wasted and fruitless hours, and I shall dwell in my remorse and bitter memories at my house upon watching TV forever..
Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit..
~ Ephesians 5:14-18
