"Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." - 1 Peter 5:8
Internet porn is a seductive demon, consistently on the prowl to lure people in its grasp…and its grasp is deadly. Let me suggest a few things you can do to protect your family from the dangers of this filthy form of seduction.
- First, decide to stay away from it. Don’t even flirt with it, because it is a super powerful magnet for all men.
- Second, keep your computer in an open area. Nothing welcomes an enemy invading the home better than a closed-door area for the computer. Keep your computer in an open area where anybody walking by can see the screen.
- Thirdly, be sure to use a filter service, and even then, there is no foolproof method. The pornographers are experts at introducing between 100 and 200 new porn sites a day! And by using generic terms in the web address, such as “whitehouse,” a child doing a school project can easily stumble upon an internet pornography site. Pornographers are not content with just those who are looking to find them - they are constantly trying to capture innocent surfers who stumble upon their sites. Filters are a tool in the battle to help keep them out of your life.
- Finally, it’s also important that personal information is not given out to strangers. It used to be we taught our children to not get in the car and ride with a stranger. Well, there is a stranger invading the home through Internet pornography, often with terrible and wicked motives when it comes to our child’s life and mind. Teach your kids to not give out personal information on the web. It’s like getting in the car of a stranger who is the devil. Protect your web address, family details and names of your children just as you would guard your social security number and bank access codes.

Yes, report it NevermindWow. This hits home. I pray for accountability to God and to each other. Pray for one another and be very open in talking about this with kids and adults in your life. May God protect our purity in spirit, mind and body. He is able to conquer this demon that prowls into our homes. Thanks to the makers of "Fireproof" who addressed this temptation and showed victory in Christ. It is possible! "Submit to God, resist the devil and he WILL flee from you." James 4:7

Yes, report it NevermindWhen my Son was here I just had to Pull the Plug on his Apple a couple of Times...
He was sending me Stuff from Facebook and his Other Sites which really scared me. Wasn't Porn but it was just as bad in other ways.
I am on the Computer all day long and it is just best to turn the Thing Off when business is done...besides that?
At my Age? Even on the Homepage? Why would I care about the latest Celeb Bikini Shoot.
That is kind of like Slamming the Barn Door once the Horse is out...

These Romance Sites are just as Bad--Married Chrisian Folk sharing Intimate Details about the State of their Marriages with Total Strangers?
Just because it is on Facebook?
-----------------------
Sometimes I wish we could go without the Computers and go back to Rotary Phones for a week or so...just to remind us we still have Voices to use for a simple Phone Call.
Real Phone Calls are much better than Emails any day...
