Amos 5:14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
Again, many video games are overloaded with much violence and criminal practice, and the curse words and mixed-up attitudes and gestures are paraded as something to be admired and emulated. Very much of the crime we now witness in our day, is the result of persons feeding on video games, and movies.
The Bible teaches us that by beholding we become changed, a principle that works for both good and evil. Even though defilement comes from within a man, what we behold can play a major role in what comes out, for if evil is allowed to enter the mind, and is cherished and cultivated, it will inevitably be manifested in what comes out.
However, for all of the evil with which we are being surrounded, we are not more gullible than persons in former years and the fact of the matter is that we can still live unspotted in an evil world. That is what He was explaining in our first passage as He declares evil defilement to come forth from within, not from without.
Amos 5:15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the Lord God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
