When watching a violent TV show or listening to angry music, we allow ourselves to be shaped by those principles by letting them into our brain. However, we do not actually act out the violence. Video games, on the other hand, invoke the players to actively participate in the violent behaviour through their game character.

We always need to be careful what we are letting into our brains, and need to be especially wary when participating in activities that cause us to act contrary to God's principles. God has saved us and called us to a holy life (see 2 Timothy 1:9). Let us, therefore, out of love for God and gratefulness for Christ's saving work, follow the wise words of Paul:

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
