Title: No Vile Thing ------------- Date: 11/24/1998

Keywords: "eyes" "vile thing"


Welcome to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand strong in the face of sexual temptation.

Passage: Psalm 101:3*

I will set before my eyes no vile thing.

Questions

1. If you made a list of "vile thing(s)," what items would appear on it?

 

2. Like the psalmist, have you committed not to view the things on your list?

 

Practical Help

From seminude sirens on billboards to scantily-clad models on magazine covers, shocking images assault us every day.

What to do? To completely avoid these temptations, you would have to drive and shop with your eyes shut — a strategy fellow motorists and patrons hold in low esteem.

Still, you can choose not to seek out — or not to set before your eyes — vulgar images. That means steering clear of the items on your list. Make a commitment today to do just that. Maybe that's where you start being in the world, but not of it.
