My heart and mind is fully known by God, and He will bring about the needed changes in my life (Ps 139). My limited life experiences have made it very clear to me that I am a poor judge of other’s motives, hearts, and minds (1 Sam 16:7). I am open to His leading and desire to press on in my Christian life. “ Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. (Phil. 1:12)

I know that as a Christian, my sanctification is a LIFE-LONG process. Philippians 1:6 makes it very clear that the Lord will continue the work HE BEGAN in me until I either die and go to be with Him or meet Him in the air. I also know that I must keep on being filled with the Spirit (Eph5:18), it is not just a onetime event or a plateau we may reach and never again need His filling. 1 John 1:9 tells me that I need to confess my sins and He will purify me from ALL unrighteous; the sins I need to confess are those that the Holy Spirit convicts me of, not simply what others will point out. Real change comes from the work of God within the heart. I have already changed some of my views on music, by the grace of God. And by His grace, He will continue to change me from the inside out, and the desires of my heart will become His (Ps. 37:4). For some of us, that change takes longer than others; but He loves all His children the same.

I don't like giving my location to people, or even my city. Unless, of course, I know them personally.

I wouldn't consider any of that a horribly objectionable "evil" or anti-Christian film. You make it sound as if the movie should be shunned. I agree that the Lord's name should not be taken in vain. I'm sure most Christians have boundaries for the movies they will watch. However, all Christians have different limits that we set, that differ from individual to individual. Where to draw the line is important and involves a great deal of discernment on our parts. Also people will not always agree on where the line should be drawn.

I take it basically, that essentially, you are saying that The Dark Knight is an evil film and Christians shouldn't be watching it. But I do object to your labeling of The Dark Knight as a movie with a "violent and dark or maybe even a (evil) message”, and should be avoided at all costs. The movie actually has several positive messages throughout this fantastic film. Batman goes so far as to willing sacrifice everything he holds dear (his reputation, his chance at a relationship with the woman he loves, etc.) to protect the people of Gotham. The people of Gotham also demonstrate and strongly show a heightened sense of morality when they are tested with a kill or be killed "experiment" set up by The Joker. Lt. Gordon continues to set a good and positive example for the citizens of Gotham as a trustworthy and honorable police officer. And eventually turns into Commissioner Gordon.
