Sex Sells Don't Be a Sell OUT-

Wake up Body of Christ. (including myself). I am not perfect I am a sinner like everyone who reads this blog. As believers we may not be where God has called us to be, but we're not where we use to be Praise God. With that said lets jump into todays topic: "Sex Sells: Don't Be a Sell Out"

Nobody is new to the term "sex sells". The Mass Media is good at selling sex. Everything from Internet Porn to Music Videos. Porn is a little to explicit for what I want to speak with you all about so I'm going to talk about Widely accepted Music Videos on Television.

Lady Gaga and Beyonce have a new song and video out titled "Video Phone". I understand artistic expression and I don't want to fault or condemn either of these two beautiful women for there performance, but rather speak to the Body of Christ about the strong hold that satan has over the media and the audience. #1 sex sells so as an entertainer if your not being sexual or attractive YOU AINT SELLING (for the most part).

So where does that put us God's children.(The audience/viewers/consumers)

If you've seen the video like I have and watched it completely through then somewhere in your heart you lusted. Maybe not it might've just been me. I had to repent after watching this video then God helped me to realize something, it's not just this video it's all over the media. Satan has found away to get God's followers to disobey God and think it's alright. News Flash if your lusting after any of these women ITS NOT ALRIGHT umm it's actually ADULTERY. Don't take my word on it lets ask God.

Matt 5:28 whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
1Cor 6;18 which says flee from sexual immorality

What does this all mean? Do your best to please God. If it means turning off your favorite performer because you once dealt with someone who did the same body movements ect to turn you on and cause you to lust for her...DO IT! The most relationship ever is the relationship with God not the relationship with your BF/GF that you may or may not be cheating on, but thats for another topic ;)
