Visual Temptations

What has recently impressed me is how fiction [and its visual presentation through electronic media] is mixed with nonfiction in our culture. It is to the point that it seems that some people’s minds operate almost entirely in the realm of the unreal. That is dangerous. I read sometime ago a debate about whether what we watch with our eyes affects us, and a larger percentage of those that participated thought that it did not—but God’s Word says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” In other words, we indeed are what we think about. It is interesting how much Scripture has to say about our thinking.
