youngster View Profile History	Is there something wrong with clean secular movies? Posted : 21 Apr, 2010 10:00 AM I would like to talk about secular movies that are not filled with sins and are not imoral. If you're interested what I think about movies with sin, you can find that in my profile. So, is there something wrong if a Christians like clean secular movies? About Jesus Bible says that all things were created by Him and for Him . Colossians 1:16 Bible Also says : " So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. " 1 Corinthians 10:31 The authors of secular movies (or music) ignore these scriptures. They don't think that God is important enough that they should use their talents to glorify Him , that they should write or sing for Him and about Him. Instead to use talents God gave them for His glory, they chose to use them for pleasing the world. So every time when Christians show interest in their art they join them . They forget their first love and become like the world. Post Reply

Posted : 22 Apr, 2010 11:31 PM I don't think there is anything wrong with watching secular movies, but I do think that we have to be careful about what we watch and allow into our minds. I also think it depends on the person. I am extremely conservative in my movie choices, and it annoys my friends and family alot. I look movies up on pluggedinonline.com and I skim through what it says about the negative content, sex content, alcohol/drug content, violence content, and langauge content. If each area has more than two sentences I won't watch the movie (although there are exceptions). Everybody is different in what they can and can't handle though. Post Reply

Posted : 1 Jun, 2010 09:57 PM sometimes they do by bringing out positive character traits that can be discussed with your non christian friends. I watched Hannah Montanna's movie with a girl (ironically named Hannah) that led us into some great discussions about how she should act as a new Christian, like how she should be kind to everyone and be herself, not how she thinks everyone wants her to be.
