Entertainment & The Christian P
art 1
: Balancing Godliness in a Secular World
In today’s culture, young people are constantly bombarded with secular influences. The allure of worldly pleasures often overshadows spiritual matters, leaving little room for God in their lives. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with enjoying secular entertainment—whether it’s sports, movies, video games, television, or books—believers must ask themselves: Is God the primary focus?
Matthew 16:23
warns against being overly preoccupied with worldly concerns: “…you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.” As Christians, we should strive for a healthy balance between enjoying life’s pleasures and maintaining a godly perspective.
In this two-part teaching,
Pastor Frederick K. Price
offers practical solutions for young adults seeking to live out their faith in a secular world. Here are some key points:
Understanding Love and Worldliness
: Pastor Price defines the terms “love” and “world” based on
1 John 2:15-17
. Love for God and love for the world are incompatible. Our affections should be directed toward God, not the passing pleasures of this world.
Enjoying God’s Good Gifts
: The Bible acknowledges that God provides us with everything for our enjoyment (
1 Timothy 6:17
). It’s essential to recognize that God delights in our happiness and creativity. However, we must guard against turning good things into ultimate things.
The Idol of Entertainment
: While entertainment itself isn’t sinful, it can become an idol if it consumes our thoughts and priorities. The world constantly vies for our attention, but as believers, we have a greater power within us:
Jesus Christ
. His blood breaks the chains of addiction and idolatry, even the idol of entertainment.
Remember, true joy and fulfillment are found in God’s presence.
Let’s glorify Him and enjoy Him forever, keeping our hearts aligned with His purposes
.
