Nonsense. It just means your true calling is as a reporter, investigative style.
Look under some rocks and get paid'n'laid for doing it.

Originally posted by flyUnity well one may not be able to stop them, but the instant they come to my mind I try to get rid of it, I also believe in staying away as much as possable to things that will tempt us to dwell on these thoughts, I dont have a TV, I try not to look at the magazine racks at the stores, etc. I have a very tough time doing the "pre-emptive" fight, and I fail lo ...[text shortened]... it is worth the Joy and sastifaction knowing that Im not just repelling the devil, Im attacking.
good answer and I am in total agreement...I am getting rid of bad thoughts by changing my mind and thinking of something else....also retaining and retemorizing scripture is a big help....I replace unwanted thoughts with scripture....I fail many times too, but less and less every day, as I turn it over to the Lord.

That creates a very funny image of you standing on a beach reciting 1 Corinthians 6:18 every time a pretty young lady in a bikini walks by.

I think you need to clarify "bad thoughts". There's a wide range and variety of bad thoughts, some worse than others. Just saying bad thoughts can leave the imagination open to anything from killing and torturing small children to sexually ellicit fantasies. Some bad thoughts would require a little more than reading scripture and might need some serious counciling.
