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. 1 John 2:15-17

Television and the watching of it is one of the biggest plagues in our day. The world has been so polluted with the filth of sin and a love of it through the programs on TV and movies. Worldly TV programs and movies do nothing but promote sin and the love of it. And were we to follow 9 out of 10 "Christians" back to their homes, we would find them entertaining themselves and their families with the garbage on cable programming. So we must be on guard against the temptation to love this wicked world through this alluring medium. We shouldn't even support the cable or satellite companies by subscribing to their service. May the love of the Father break through into our hearts, that His power, the power of His love will overcome the darkness. John says if we love this world, the love of God is not in us, because if we truly knew His love as it is in Jesus, we could not have an undisturbed love for this world that opposes Him.

Important: SermonAudio tags will appear on some of the messages found on this web site. We are not in any way affiliated with SermonAudio! Please read the following explanation.
Those who listen to archived sermons or Heart of the Matter programs on this web site will notice that, currently, when they download some of those sermons and HOM programs that a SermonAudio logo appears. This is because Pilgrims Covenant Church messages were for a number of years posted at SermonAudio. But due to the increasingly deep compromise of SermonAudio in posting sermons from ministers unfaithful either in doctrine or practice or both, and also on account of the many corrupt conferences advertised on SermonAudio, we withdrew from SermonAudio. However, I did not realize when posting our sermons and programs on that site on a page for which we paid that the management was tagging our MP3 files with the logo of SermonAudio. We are working to remove the SermonAudio logo from all of the sermons and programs posted on this site which were previously posted at SermonAudio. However, this takes much time; so we felt it important to post this explanation and also this warning concerning SermonAudio, a web site with many sound ministers, but also many which are corrupting the Lord's blood-bought church. |
