This was a point brought up in another thread, and I thought it was interesting/valid/relevant enough to start a new thread/topic about it.
Suppose the Savior who died on the cross for our sins came very unexpectedly and knocked on our front door. And... let's just go down that journey of thought for a moment.
Would you let Him in? How would you greet Him?
And if He asked to look around... what would He see? What types of books, movies and games do you have? If He asked why you had a specific item... what explanation would you give?
Honestly... I'm not sure at this point how I would respond. To some extent... I would actually admit that I would have an attitude about some things, maybe I would get a little defensive... or maybe I would even try to pretend it's not really an issue or that it's something that should be ignored, I dunno.
Though I suppose there are some areas where I'd be a little... confused and uncertain. I mean, is Jesus really black-and-white, or are there some areas where He might allow some moderate shades of gray regarding what you have in your house?
