The Bible says, “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me” (Ps.101:3).

I don’t need Hollywood. I don’t have a TV. I won’t allow Hollywood to pipe their sewage into my living room and into my mind. My house and mind belong to Jesus Christ. I’m not a child and don’t need to be entertained.

In the case of the Psalmist the wicked thing he refuses to set before his eyes is an idol. The reason he refuses to set it before his eyes is when his eyes rest upon it his mind thinks about the reason it was created by man and the ordinances required to obey, to worship it (Mic.6:16). It was a work that turned people aside from worshiping the true and living God.

Hollywood is evil to the core. It’s the enemy of God and America and has played a major role in making America the immoral nation that she is.

Not only do those in Hollywood without shame break all the commandments of God, they encourage others to do so, and even show its viewers how to do it.

Hollywood is censored somewhat and required to give ratings for their filth. In this way the viewer knows how deep the mess is before they step into it.

So called “Christian films” are rated to. Thank God the Bible (KJV) and Truth isn’t rated. It’s for all age groups. It’s safe for everyone to read.

Hollywood seeks to be politically correct, which is to be anti-God, anti-Christian, anti-family, and anti-America. Hollywood through the TV indoctrinates its viewers so they’ll accept what they’re trying to create in the real world.

Hollywood stand against the very values that our nation was founded on. They use their money to help elect politicians who will support their agenda, and they fund protest against our constitutional rights.

Where did they get the millions if not billions of dollars to exercise their political power, spread their propaganda, and encourage and teach America to rebel against God? They got it from the millions of viewers that pay to watch their movies and shows. The viewers are giving Hollywood money to attack the very freedoms and liberty’s that we hold dear. Hollywood using that money to support causes we would never personally give a dime to support. The success of Hollywood in influencing election and funding attacks against our constitutional rights is due to the money paid by its viewers.

Most will find this hard to believe, but we can live without Hollywood. Hollywood may give its viewers the excitement and entertainment their depraved souls crave but they are not their friend to say the least. They are the enemy of man’s soul and the enemy of America’s soul, and we would be wise to boycott them.

Many years ago preachers could honestly preach against this “one eyed monster” because preachers wouldn’t have one in their house. But today they can’t say a word against this “one eyed monster” that’s causing so much destruction in our land, because they all have at least one in their home. Hollywood’s tentacles have reached into the pulpit and robbed it of its power.

Just as idols were destroyed and removed when revival broke out in Israel, when real revival breaks out in a church you’ll not find a single TV in the Christian’s home.
