Hello all. Consider this a public service announcement. I feel almost embarrassed to write this ... but pastoral concern compels me to do so. I'd like to think that Fifty Shades of Grey is so far off of every Christian's radar screen that it need not even be given a second thought. But alas, I don't know that that is the case. So I mention it here, for all who cross these pages, and ask you to please, please not subject yourself to the filth that is, more and more, becoming mainstream in our culture.
Here are a few others' thoughts on the issue:
Jesus Christ: "The eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!"
Jesus Christ: "The eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!"
The Apostle Paul: "Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them; for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret."
Kevin DeYoung: No Grey Area
Christians who see 50 Shades of Grey should be ashamed of themselves. Hard words, but that’s the point of Ephesians 5:3-12.

If some things should not be spoken, they should certainly not be viewed with popcorn (Eph. 5:11-12).

I am staggered that it is considered necessary to reason some professing Christians out of watching "Fifty Shades of Grey."

Fifty Shades of Nay. Those who choose to see less today will see more forever. http://t.co/xwgGe2f9Dc
