“All transgressions begin with sinful thinking . . . guard against the pictures of lewdness and sensuality that Satan flashes upon the screen of your imagination, select with care the books you read, choose discerningly the kind of entertainment you

The Bible's command is clear: [“Have regard for good things in the sight of all men” (Romans 12:17 NKJV)].”
