TV Is this true or is it OCD?

[KiranLee]

Hi everyone, I am having a problem these days with TV and books. Before this issue surfaced I used to be okay with watching shows and books that used a few Euphenisms and perhaps one or two real curse words as long as there is an overall good message.
But yesterday I had a panic attack and worried that it I watched something with any sinful aspects even euphenisms I would be sinning.

I keep having thoughts that say "You dont care if God is offended"
"You dont care if someone offended God."
and "You are not abstaining from evil" even though I noted that I am not the one doing it nor am I condoning it.
But now I cant even watch old shows that use a few euphenisms without worrying.
I don't think God cares, but I am not sure.

He cares.
He doesn't like it when His people spend more time with entertainment than with Him.
He provides the way of escape in all cases, including also however long it takes - with the most gentleness and kindness and perfect healing as only He knows.

I believe that your faith is being tested. Those are not your thoughts, because you love God and want to be more like Christ.

So what do you think is appropriate to watch on television? Is it sin to hear the word "g-lly" "g-sh" "ge-" ect? I suppose that is why some Christians don't watch TV because even Hermie has used one of those. It is really confusing.

Thank you, I hope you are right.

The Father in Heaven says it is good and blessed to meditate on His Torah constantly.

I'm not sure He ever says to watch tv, but that is like all things up to Him.

Among home-schooling groups, even unbelievers, say that they don't have a tv .
Some used to have one, and found great results in their lives when they got rid of it.
