Dear friends:

Electromagnetism is also a great blessing!  It is only through the phenomenon of electromagnetism that we are able to saturate the world with the gospel, 24/7, via radio and television.  It has become a vital part of the Great Commission, powerful beyond the wildest imaginations of people just a few decades ago.

Of course, the evil of electromagnetism may be an inference in Ephesians 2:2, referring to "the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience."  We have surely seen much evil from it with wicked electronic images saturating the world.

But the good of electromagnetism may be seen in prophetic passages such as in Isaiah 11:9: "The earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. "  This may at least be partial reference to the many radio and TV outreaches via satellite and shortwave that are beaming the gospel to every corner of the earth, filling it with the knowledge of the LORD.

Therefore, TV and radio through electromagnetism, even with its possible human hazards, is apparently God's provision to help fulfill the Great Commission, for which we should be grateful. 

Just be cautious if you are near a transmitter.  Over 30 years ago I worked with Air Force radar technicians who thought nothing of walking in front of a super high-powered antenna.  It's a wonder their bodies did not light up like a neon bulb.  Their cells probably did.  I cringed when I saw it then and cringe more today just thinking about it.  I hope those brave and sometimes foolish guys are still alive.
