We Are Commanded To Turn Away From Evil

This is a continuation of 2 Timothy 2 and my post "In Dying With Messiah, True Life We Gain", which was posted on January 23, 2013 (yesterday). 

Paul is talking to Timothy and gives a very serious command “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord must turn away from evil.” In the west and specifically the USA, we have forsaken God's commands and warnings and are reaping accordingly. 

You will hardly find the TV teachers and pastors of large churches warning the people as they should. We do not see John the Baptist with a large church.. We must get into the scriptures and seek out the New Testament warnings. The Old Testament warns over and over also.

The teachers tickle the ears in different ways and I see it in most churches. They deeply harm and/or destroy their hearers. The hearers are comforted in their lost condition and the believers are not prepared to fight the good fight of faith and resist evil. Individuals and families are destroyed as a result. 

Who would agree with me that TV, movies, previews, worldly music, and worldly magazines are filled with evil? Yet, do we obey God? Paul told us under the inspiration of The Holy Spirit “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord must turn away from evil.” DO WE?

Who would you think wrote these words?

There are television sets in every home, every restaurant, every hotel room, and every shopping mall— now they're even small enough to carry in your pocket like electronic rosaries. It is an unquestioned part of everyday life. Kneeling before the cathode-ray god, with our TV Guide concordance in hand, we maintain the illusion of choice by flipping channels (chapters and verses) ¹

The writer was the man who founded the most famous public Satanist organization in America (the Church of Satan founded in 1966), Anton LaVey. He is also the author of a number of other books including "The Satanic Bible."

In all seriousness, LaVey continues to promote the religious significance of television, saying that:

... The birth of TV was a magical event foreshadowing its satanic significance. The first commercial broadcast was aired on Walpurgisnacht, April 30th, 1939, at the New York World's Fair. Since then, TV's infiltration has been so gradual, so complete that no one even noticed. People don't need to go to church any more; they get their morality plays on television.²

2 Timothy 2  ISV

19However, God’s solid foundation still stands. It has this inscription on it: 

• “The Lordm knows those who belong to him,”n and “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lordo must turn away from evil.”p 
• 20In a large house there are not only utensils made of gold and silver, but also those made of wood and clay. Some are for special use, while others are for ordinary use. 
• 21Therefore, if anyone stops associating withq these people, he will become a special utensil, set apart for the owner’s use, prepared for every good action.

22Flee from youthful passions. 

• Instead, pursue righteousness, faithfulness,r love, and peace together with those who call on the Lord with a pure heart. 
• 23Do not have anything to do with foolish and stupid discussions, because you know they breed arguments. 
• 24A servants of the Lord must not argue. Instead, he must be kind to everyone, teachable,t willing to suffer wrong, 25and gentle when refuting opponents. 
• After all, maybe God will allow them to repent and to come to a full knowledge of the truth, 26so that they might escape from the devil’s snare, even though they've been held captive by him to do his will.

I have attached a video. One man professes faith in Christ, the other likely is not. They do not understand all that is going on, but they are warning people and one point they make is the TV is sending out mind control commands. Do we really think that the government payed countless millions to "help us" convert to digital so we can have a better picture? Your TV is impacting your mind in ways we do not even understand. The boy who recently killed his mother, siblings and father, played violent video games.

3,000 Nazi occult scientists came to the USA after Germany was defeated. It was done in Operation Paper Clip. Many of these scientists were experts in mind control and had tortured and experimented on people and babies. Walt Disney used mind control knowledge to help Hitler raise taxes. Just think how many children he has impacted since.  Scientists have had about 67 years to perfect mind control knowledge. 

Do not forget! The people in power kill millions of babies a year. When a leader is responsible for allowing, thus encouraging the murder of millions of babies, do you not realize the day will likely come when he or she will kill adults for their own purpose, such as Hitler and countless other evil men have done throughout history? The man of sin is coming and people do not even see the connection.  

I do not recommend getting caught up in the countless videos about what is going on. That alone can depress you. If you are obedient to Jesus, you do not have to worry, for whether we live or die, we win. The question is do we want to be holy? "Without holiness, no man shall see God." Hebrews 12:14 

No. I do not like to warn. How do we keep silent while so many perish?
