Pornagraphy has ruined our culture

So I was intrigued the other day. I picked up a copy of the USA today on my campus and saw the following front page article http://www.usatoday.com/money/workplace/2007-10-17-porn-at-work_N.htm

So anyway, I read it and was shocked that people are actually looking at this stuff. It's just another way that Satan is choking our culture and its really upsetting me. And we wonder why the divorce rate is so high. Now technology has given these people (men mostly) the ability to "cheat" on their wives while they are at work bringing home the big salary for the new BMW. I honestly hate what pornagraphy has done to the lives of my friends, the lives of the people I sit in church with. Most of all, I hate what pornography has done to MY life. I'm thankful that through the help of many around me, its not something that is an issue in my life right now, though the temptation is obviously there at times. Christ really saved me from a downward spiral involving pornography which had been going on in my life for most of the last 3 years of my life until about 6-8 months ago.


For anyone struggling with this, please sign up for www.covenanteyes.com. It's $7 a month and trust me it's worth every penny. I'd be happy to be anyone's accountability partner. Ok anyway......



I truly think that we need to pray for the culture around. This isn't anything new though, as it (lust,sexual immorality) has been around since the beginning of the world and there are a few examples in the bible. The biggest story is the one of David and Bathsheba. This I believe, is why Paul wrote to the church in Ephesis "But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people." I believe WE need to change our culture. Regain for Christ what Satan has destroyed, the sanctity of marraige and the issue of lust and sexual immorality.

Since my thoughts are always on Cornerstone , please pray with my for every man there would not struggle with this addicting sin, and if they are, that they not hide it, but go to someone about it and get some help. Pray that this would not affect any marraige or relationship within the church!!!


Ok, I think I'm done for now.... now I have to go study YUCK
