The Pastor's Piece
 
It's Harmless
 
As I have been examining my own spiritual life lately and what I can do to "measure up" more to the fulness of Christ, a lot of things began to weigh heavily on my mind about things we may absorb in our lives that may affect us more than we know in our walk with Christ. They may even effect those around us like our children, grandchildren, spouses, etc. What I am talking about are the things we watch on T.V., read or even listen to on the radio. There are things that those mediums have that are not harmful or sinful but there is a large portion that is corrupting the Christian values and the morals of the Word of God. Many times we use the saying, "Oh, it's just harmless." Is it really?
As I look at the things that have become most popular on T.V. in particular over the past few years, and much as Christians we should be very careful about watching, if at all, I see a trend toward the things of witchcraft, occult, wizardry, and fantasy with severe bloody overtones.
Let's look at a few titles of shows that "seem harmless". Disney has produced two shows that deal with these themes, "My Babysitters a Vampire and The Wizards of Waverly Place. Both are billed as comedies. They appeal to the pre teen and teen ages and expose them to areas of the occult or the wizard world. Is that something that we as Christians really need to watch or allow our children to watch.
 
     US Carrier Strike Force Enters Syrian Waters  

The Syrian crisis assumed a big power dimension this week with
build up of rival United States and Russia naval air carrier   armadas in Syria waters. The USS George H.W. Bush arrived Wednesday, in wake of three Russian warships anchored earlier opposite Tartus which established a command post in the Syrian port. The will augmented by Russia's only air carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, which is due this week
  By deploying 70 ship-borne fighter-bombers plus three heavy guided missile cruisers and five guided missile destroyers opposite Syria. Washington has laid down military support for any intervention the Arab League in conjunction with Turkey may decide on.
  Bashar Assad (president of Syria) can see for himself that Washington has hoisted a nuclear aerial umbrella to protect its allies, Israel, Turkey, and Jordon, against retaliation his armed forces high command pledged Friday for the death of six Syrian air force elie pilot on ambush Thursday.
  In the past 48 hours at least 70 people were reported killed as the Syrian army continued its crackdown in the face of spread armed  opposition.
  The Russian Kuznetzov carrier and its accompanying strike vessels will join three Russian warship parked opposite Tartus for more than a week, It will enter the same Syrian offshore waters as the USS Bush and the US Sixth fleet, which is permanently posted in the Mediterranean. The Syrian crisis is therefore building up a superpower face-off unparalleled since the Cold War between the U.S. and Russia ended ion the nineties.
  While Washington clearly stands ready to back operations against the Assad Regime, Moscow is drawing a red line around his palace in Damascus. The Kermlin is warning the U.S., NATO and the Arab League that they will not be allowed to repeat their feat in Libya of overthrowing overthrowing Muammar Qaddafi against Assad.
  In face of this escalating big power standoff and the high possibility of the Syrian ruler deciding to lash out against against his country' neighbors,Israel-Jordon and the turkey armies have declared a high state of war preparedness
