Lately, television news anchors have been excitedly advertising "the final season of Game of Thrones!" People seem to be going crazy over this show, some even dressing up like the characters of this fantasy set in Medieval times. There's a place in Ireland where you can even go to spend your money to live out the fantasy...
Well, as Believers, my husband and I couldn't even make it through the first half hour of the first show, because we were so appalled and disgusted by the blatant pornography, that we immediately deleted the series.
Sex today, in this fallen world of ours, seems to equate to nothing more than a handshake. It's turned into a type of idolatry from which there is no turning back. The proverbial genie has been let out of the bottle, and things began to "go downhill" back when movies began to show married couples sitting in the same bed....
Anyway, gratuitous sex scenes were apparently not enough for today's audience, which seems to be obsessed with watching others engaged in a most private act - something that ADONAI never meant to become a spectator sport...
Obviously, this is all part of the ends times scenario outlined in the Books of Daniel and Revelation.
Here are just a few of the myriad scriptures warning us to abstain from idolatry:
Colossians 3:5 5 Therefore, put to death the earthly parts of your nature - sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed (which is a form of idolatry); 6 for it is because of these things that God's anger is coming on those who disobey him. (CJB)
1 John 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
1 Corinthians 10:14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
Galatians 5:19. For you know the works of the flesh, which are these: adultery, impurity and lasciviousness, 20. idolatry, witchcraft, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, stubbornness, treacheries, heresies, 21. Envy, murder, drunkenness, revelry and all like things. Those who do things like these, they will not inherit the Kingdom of Elohim. (AENT)
Jonah 2:8 8 "Those who worship vain idols give up their source of mercy… (CJB)
