What kinds of entertainment should Christians avoid ?

Answer 1

What some ppl who proclaim to be christians should understand is that serving god is no where as restrictive as being "in the world" is.........Anything that is good, is allowed by Jehovah to be done...movies, dates with the girls/boys etc............you as a christian must know when you are amongst something that you need to remove yourself from.....Some may think that restricting yourself from strip clubs, clubs in general, getting DRUNK/CRUNK, sexual escapades and things of that nature is absolutely horrible but it is not........You tend to become enslaved to the world when you do not choose to become a follower of Jesus......As stated previously, you have so many things to worry about.........If you were a follower, you are free! Why? because you are gonna act as if Jesus were your guest at all times.....i know that i ramble a lot.......and i apologize...o yea...you were listening to the watchtower today huh? lolololol amile

Answer 2

Besides the obvious such as pornography there are many more subtle forms of entertainment that may at first glance appear innocent. Christians must constantly be aware that the world is lying in the power of Satan (1John 5:19) As such, he has a tremendous influence over what is presented in movies, on television, in books and music. Movies, TV programs and books very often feature extraneous violence, nudity, sex, and the occult. Sitcoms sometimes draw us in by making jokes of things God hates. We begin to feel that it's not so bad. A couple of years ago I began to notice that almost every sitcom managed to insert at least one homosexual character. Not obvious because this character was never the focus of the show, as in some other shows that we would automatically reject as inappropriate. This is Satan's subtle indoctrination of society in general that this was not so bad. If we are not careful this type of thing will gradually indoctrinate us too.
Paul warned: “In later periods of time some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired utterances and teachings of demons, by the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, marked in their conscience as with a branding iron.” (1 Timothy 4:1, 2) A conscience marked “as with a branding iron” is like seared flesh covered with scar tissue and devoid of feeling. Such a conscience would no longer warn us to stay away from situations that could cause us to fall away from the faith.

Anything that makes you feel guilty! Really though, guilt is a means to control people and make you feel like crap about yourself. Guilt is a judgment. Don't cause harm to yourself or another and have fun.

Entertainment that is at the expense of someone else (ie laughing at others misfortune...)
