It Matters What Christians Share!
I feel such a tugging in my heart to be obedient to God on this matter. I may be out on a limb by myself on this subject, but if I am... I am out there on the limb with me and God. I know it's needed to share maybe warnings about books and TV shows or videos etc, if you know someone is a Christian or raising children in a Christian home, as to hopefully prevent them from being exposed to something they don't need to be (i.e. Christians should hold each other accountable, just like family and friends should). The last 2 days my Facebook news feed has been full of all the pictures and videos surrounding the Grammys via sharing posts. I haven't watched the Grammys nor have I watched award shows in years because of the decline they have taken with sick and twisted worldliness, however my mind has now been exposed to pictures and things maybe I didn't want or need to see because that's how things work in the internet and social media world, and then it maybe exposes children who see it on their parents phone etc. It's not a question of if we will continue to be exposed to worldly influences, because the answer is also a resounding "yes we will" to that, until the Lord returns for those who are watching and ready. The true question is what will you do, as a professing Christian, to continue guarding your heart and soul from the exposure? I will answer this question for myself, in that it does indeed matter what I share. I do have a responsibility, as a Christian, to hold myself accountable.
I was praying heavily over this, but it's nothing new for CBS or the Grammys. They didn't just start pushing their motives and agendas on the public this year. I started praying about sharing a post and the Holy Spirit quickened my spirit. I heard the Lord speak so clearly to my heart, that the more this is shared and talked about the more the enemy is having his party in hell and field day. That's what those performers and CBS wanted, just like anyone else who shares their demonic agendas on national television. They wanted it to blow up, they wanted it to go viral, and now the more it's shared, the more the devil gets the glory he thinks that he deserves. They did this in hopes that those who didn't want to watch the Grammys would still be exposed to satan and his demonic forces; they are winning and gaining ground with every shared picture and post. For true Christians it might be easy to overlook and go on, but for those on the fence this might pull them in the wrong direction in regards to his/her soul being in a constant tug of war between satan and his demonic forces vs. God and His Holy Angels. To continue sharing those photographs and images, or listening to a video, would only infiltrate my mind with things I don't need to see when I close my eyes or just randomly think about something, so I've just did a lot of "hiding posts". In the last 48 hours satan has no telling how many times, had his agenda spewed all over the news, internet, and social media through these entertainers. I prayed some more, and God took me to 1 Corinthians 2:14 "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." KJV
The point made in this verse is crucial in our understanding of spirituality and how to interact with the non-believing world. In short, non-believers cannot be expected to think, or to act, like believers, nor should we expect different when non believers act in such a way as on the awards shows. The key difference is spiritual: those who are not guided by the Holy Spirit, thanks to faith in Christ, simply lack a godly spiritual perspective. The only way to believe the truths of God, including His plan for salvation through faith in Christ, is for God to communicate those truths through His Holy Spirit. Paul's work is to help people who have been given that spiritual ability to believe to understand what it means, but he knows that he canNOT make anyone believe it; it's the same for Christians today. Those without God's Spirit (unbelievers) cannot possibly "get it." God's truths must be understood and believed on a spiritual level. Those without God's Spirit don't have that level. Like a radio, television, or microphone tuned to the wrong signal, they are literally incapable of receiving that saving knowledge of Jesus and message of Christ. (The Grammys were tuned to the wrong signal, and those not living for Christ aren't going to accept anything other than what they believe right now and what they saw on tv, just like if a true Christian was watching it there should've been Holy Spirit convicting power to turn the channel immediately, otherwise you've opened your soul and mind to expose it to satan's forces. So many Christians have become desensitized to not only the Holy Spirit and the ways of the world and satan that it has become fuzzy and dangerous when separating the works for the two.)
So the natural person rejects as foolish anything that comes from the Spirit of God. Those who have only their human senses and human reason will never be able to comprehend the spiritual truths of God's revelation about sin, salvation, and Christ to His people, because they are seeing it through fleshly and not spiritual sight. It's unreasonable to expect non-believers to process spiritual issues in the same way as believers. It's impossible to expect them to have the "mind of Christ" (1 Corinthians 2:16) when they don't even have the Spirit of God.
I understood at this point, after much prayer and talking with God, that by me sharing things from people (i.e. worldly entertainers) who aren't living for Christ, isn't helping to bring Glory to God nor to witness for Him because the devil has them where he wants them, and they aren't budging. However, you still continue praying for their souls whether you know them or not. But if someone who professes to be saved (i.e. singers, preachers, teachers), are sharing or singing things that aren't of God then it's certainly my duty to share and warn of that, because that's someone's soul that could very well be on the line if they continue to follow something that isn't of God. (i.e. they know better). With that being said, satan knows his time is short and he's trying any means possible to get people's souls, and I have to guard my heart and mind to not be exposed anymore to his antics than I have to be. We shouldn't be surprised at any of this, because the Bible speaks of such things, and everything that has to happen to line up for the return of Christ. I know God's people win in the end and that's what I have to remember, that in the middle of a chaotic and frustrated mess of a country that no longer fears or blesses God, He will protect His chosen... but, we are surprised and taken aback when we ask God to bless America again, and He hasn't yet. He's coming back, and I realize it matters what I share! God forbid I was to die, I would hate for those to be the last images of people dressed like satan, shared on my Facebook page. I desire for it to be something that would bring Glory to God!
❤️🙌
In Christ, Kimmy
