My husband and I are living in a roommate situation so all we have is one room. My husband has become very defensive about when I voice my concern about him watching known satanists on tv, and he starts calling me " Mother Teresa" just because it makes me uncomfortable.
Is your a husband a disciple of Christ, a Christian? If not, it makes a kind of sense that he would not have any qualms about watching folks who are Satanists fix cars. They are refurbishing cars, after all, not openly worshiping the devil, right? Anyway, pressing him to feel about such t.v. shows as you do, if he is not a believer, is an effort doomed to failure. He needs the Holy Spirit, not his wife, convicting him and moving him to right living. As has already been said, most of all, your husband needs you to pray for him. Speak to sin when the way is open to do so, and take no part in it yourself, but then, in prayer, leave the transformation of your husband in God's hands.
I am not judging him, I just tell him I don't like that energy in the room. What should I do? I want him to understand the consequences of such actions because I feel like it jeopardizes me as well.
Is it really just an "energy" issue? Isn't the real problem that the t.v. show doesn't honor and glorify God? (
1 Corinthians 10:31) Don't make the matter one that rests in
your personal sensitivities but in the commands of
God. (
Ephesians 5:1-12)
God can protect you from the foolish choices of your husband. You don't need to fear for yourself, then, but, rather, for your husband whose viewing choices are not honoring to God and, as such, open up his life to demonic influence.
It's always through our rebellious, selfish choices that we invite the demonic into our hearts and minds, whether we realize it or not. These choices seem so harmless, so small, in-and-of themselves. Why would God even fuss at all about them? Sure, they put our will over His, but only a little bit. By this sort of reasoning, the rebellion toward God in our lives takes root and grows, and the devil encourages it, establishing strongholds within our rebellion, gaining greater power over us in doing so. So long as each moment of rebellion doesn't, by itself, seem too extreme to us, we move comfortably into it, reassuring ourselves that worrying about choosing our will over God's is just moralistic legalism. As this process of moving more and more into rebellion toward God, setting our will before His, continues, the convicting voice of the Spirit falls silent, our conscience becomes "seared as with a hot iron," and we cease to be able to properly discern right from wrong, good from evil.
Often, in my experience anyway, it is a person in whom this has happened who is quickest to make their conscience their guide. They are blind to the corruption that has occurred in their own conscience, unwilling or unable to think that it could, or has been, fouled and dulled. But following a corrupted conscience, they migrate with increasing speed into darkness and far from God.
