have never heard so much foul language on television, and the visual
part is no better...”
Dorthy/
Waynesboro, Virginia U.S.A.
Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
There
are paid services one may ascribe to, to delete certain television
content, be it language or visual, search on the internet.
Also,
every flat screen T.V. Has a v chip that may limit language and or
certain visual scenes.
All
this is true, also of computers.

receivers in Canada, Brazil and the USA, which allows the blocking of
programs based on their ratings category. It is intended for use by

Psalm
101:3,4 NLT
3 I
will refuse to look at anything vile and vulgar.I hate all who deal
crookedly; I will have nothing to do with them.
4 I
will reject perverse ideas and stay away from every evil.
Proverbs
8:13 KJV
The
fear of The Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil
way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
Matthew
6:22-24 NLT
22
“Your eye is like a lamp that provides light for your body. When
your eye is healthy, your whole body is filled with light.
23
But when your eye is unhealthy, your whole body is filled with
darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness,
how deep that darkness is!
24
“No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the
other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other..."
Luke
11:34-36 KJV
34
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single
(good/pure), thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye
is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
35
Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
36
If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark,
the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a
candle doth give thee light.
I
Corinthians 6:12 NLT
You
say, “I am allowed to do anything”—but not everything is good
for you. And even though “I am allowed to do anything,” I must
not become a slave to anything.
I
Corinthians 15:33 KJV
Be
not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
Galatians
5:19-21 NLT
19
When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are
very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures,
20
idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of
anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division,
21
envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me
tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of
life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
Ephesians 5:1-11,15,16 NLT (Living in The Light)
1
Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are His
dear children.
2
Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He
loved us and offered Himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma
to God.
3
Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among you. Such
sins have no place among God’s people.
4
Obscene stories, foolish talk, and coarse jokes—these are not for
you. Instead, let there be thankfulness to God.
5
You can be sure that no immoral, impure, or greedy person will
inherit the Kingdom of Christ and of God. For a greedy person is an
idolater, worshiping the things of this world.
6
Don’t be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the
anger of God will fall on all who disobey Him.
7
Don’t participate in the things these people do.
8
For once you were full of darkness, but now you have Light from The
Lord. So live as people of Light!
9
For this Light within you produces only what is good and right and
true.
10
Carefully determine what pleases The Lord.
11
Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead,
expose them.
15
So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those
who are wise.
16
Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.
Philippians
1:9,10 NLT
9 I
pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will
keep on growing in knowledge and understanding.
10
For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may
live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return.
Philippians
4:8 KJV
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are
honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these
things.
Colossians
3:1,2 KJV
1 If
ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above,
where Christ sitteth on The Right Hand Of God.
2
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
I
Thessalonians 5:21,22 KJV
21
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22
Abstain from all appearance of evil.
I
John 2:15-17 KJV
15
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any
man love the world, the love of The Father is not in him.
16
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of
the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of The Father, but is of the
world.
17
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth
the will of God abideth for ever.
Just
A Closer Walk With Thee
I am weak, but Thou art strong;
Jesus, keep me from all wrong;
I’ll be satisfied as long
As I walk, let me walk close to Thee.
Chorus:
Just a closer walk with Thee,
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea,
Daily walking close to Thee,
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
Through this world of toil and snares,
If I falter, Lord, who cares?
Who with me my burden shares?
None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee.
When my feeble life is o’er,
Time for me will be no more;
Guide me gently, safely o’er
To Thy kingdom shore, to Thy shore.

of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable,
and perfect, will of God.
