Cultural War: Art’s Expression as Tool - PART 2

In Philippines 4:8, God advises us: “ Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Reflecting on the verse above, are we seeking for these values when we are entertaining ourselves? Is the music, movies, concerts, plays, dancing, pictures, sculptures reflecting these values? At this instant, while I am typing these thoughts, there are a spiritual world acting around us. There are angels in my and in your house that are protecting us, however, there is also a text in 1 Peter 5:8 that says:  “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around  like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Often, we underestimate the power that the devil can have over our lives but he can only act out trough legality. Spiritual beings need spiritual doors to walk in and they are governed by spiritual laws. Regardless of our awareness towards these spiritual doors, it won’t change the fact that they do exist. What could be a spiritual door? Art expression can be a spiritual door. All art expression can be considered as spiritual doors.
