Video banned after few minutes on Blender artist

Hi CHEWS,
To let you know that I have deleted the new thread you have just posted. The video you linked to breaks the forum rules of inappropriate content:

Subjects include, but are not limited to, topics such as racism, sexism, religion, xenophobia or sexual preference.

You say in your post "Well Here is a video we made promoting our studio, Christian Home Entertainment Works studios." After watching the video I don't see a promotion of your studio but a series of religious oppinions. If you continue with posts that break these forum rules they will also be deleted and further action may be taken.

YouTube and our Code of ethics

(Trever Grissam) My friends and I just did what we call a speed run in which we gave ourselves 1 day and $0 to come up with a film, edit, and publish it. We plan to do more speed runs and see how much our quality per time increases as well as our morals and integrity, so that clean content becomes more second nature through out. Morality should be natural and the thought immediate.

Theory being that its much easier to catch bad habits publicly. The "must appear perfect" mentality to serving God is crap though one must be improving and actively in a relationship with God. This came after my considering the pulling of our first speed run, the "Foliage Hunter", for the slightly questionable rock scene. I make no justification for originally making it and posting it in that state.

However feel free to giggle and then say, "Don't do that though." >.> Anyway if we ever stray so far from the morals of a Christian nature that it seems we are trying to entertain using any means necessary, then please don't support us, we trust that our audience has enough good sense to choose good, clean entertainment, which C.H.E.W.S. strives to make readily available.

 We will phase in natural messages slowly over our developmental period as the ideas come, the morality aspect of our films must follow efficiency and quality so the morality is not lost in poor production. For now they consist of little or no deeper meaning. The fact is, a transparent, "we are not perfect but God is", approach is much better if we wish to reach real people, for which the studio was perceived.

 Though we won't tailor or film to an overly religious and stale criteria please point out any perceived moral issues so that we may watch them closely and not have anything grow without our knowledge. Especially when some things are only truly bad when expressed in the wrong light, however may be an effective tool when used correctly. Such balance will be examined at great lengths. Thanks, Sincerely, Christian Home Entertainment Works Studio.

The Jesus that the enemy hides.

Many people hurt and struggle in life, crushed by pain. Yet they hide it or turn to so many other things. The solution is to become friends with Christ. While a perfect life is not promised as a result, his comfort, strength and peace are well worth the struggles. The Bible makes many mentions of there being hardship in the Christian life. "21 They preached the gospel in that city and won a large number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch, 22 strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. 'We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,' they said." (Acts 14: 21-22) (I mention this only for the reason of honesty that no one may be misled into thinking it overly gentle of a life. This prevents falling off.) One misconception Christians often give is that to gain a relationship with Christ you must first change yourself and quit your sin. Though we preach the opposite, we unwittingly teach this in action. Despite the scripture, " You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:6-8)." We say such naive things as 'lesbians and bi-sexuals that call themselves Christians are not Christian.' While it is true that this is a sin and that to refuse to give it up to God as one grows in understanding and is confronted is rebellion towards God. If this person refuses help and council for a period of time they are to be treated as a non believer. This goes the same for those who wrong another and do not repent of the wrongdoing after numerous stages of confrontation. However, one's sins will be revealed to the heart on God's timing and God works in man at his time. To give your life to Christ means to let your heart be transformed. There will come a point when one desires to give up sexual immorality, though God first took them comforted them and blessed them while they had not yet done so. If one does not come to Christ because they are afraid to give up something, they missed the message. You don't just give it up to earn him. He takes you and changes you until you want it gone, realizing its harm. I myself had many sins I had yet to repent of when first saved and many I still regularly repent of, desiring my freedom. Every sin causes harm, yet God loves and gives strength, mercy and power during such periods. There are no prerequisites to come to God. Sin is harmful but God wants your heart first; then as you grow in relationship with him, your sin gets taken away as your desires change to become more pure. One last note is if a lesbian or any other form of sinner comes to you and repents- no matter how many times in a day- you must forgive them. " 3 So watch yourselves. If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. 4 Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.” " (Luke 17: 3-4)

New website

Have you visited our website recently? If not it has been overhauled and our message has been made more clear. Visit here.

Sometimes all it takes is one simple question from God to come to a revelation in life and find a new deeper peace. Sometimes he may just ask, "Son, what are you doing to yourself, is this not stupid?" Regardless of the questions he asks us, its important to remember he is reaching out to us and there is no evil in God. He is love, rest, joy and strength and our evil is incompatible.I just praise God that we can trade it in for the righteousness of Christ. Before asking the question, "If there is a God, then why is there so much evil in the world?" The answer is that he is is patient enough that we may be made good and he thus has not destroyed us all. Since we are all evil in nature and practice evil, we all equally deserve punishment. When bad things fall on another it is not because they are more of a sinner but rather it is a warning to us to stop or not enter such things. Try asking, "If there is no God, why is there so much good in the world?" Negative outlooks crush the spirits of man, so rather focus on the things that are good and praise worthy instead of all the things wrong in the world that deserve far less glory. Gods questions uplift the spirit because his outlook is pure, why do ours cause such pain and doubt? Perhaps its time to examine how we look at life and search for the good (God) in all things.
