Read some stuff on twitter platform Also seen harsh comments on Face book. Heard stuff on other modern social media platforms. Christians warring over keyboards.
Its not a good witness. Not a good look. Bad.
We are not called to be "herd of online bullies", using social media like a thug talks to vulnerable in the playground.
Then follows is rush to judgment. Hurting those who not in same thought process nor 'having our understanding'!
End up hurting those in our tribe, have experienced this, results hurtful, very difficult to accept. (Who knows my discipline, you base that on a view Kevin holds. Or theory about political statement. The music may like, or spending time watching football). We judge others for trivial stuff, actually when they may be more faithful, more honorable in God’s sight than we are.
Can put forward that both you and myself in relation to social media especially ,`face book, Twitter, watts up,` etc... need to ask God, the Lord to do transforming work in our hearts, Minds and rest of our lives.
Its God’s glory, my own good, and the Yourself that needs to exercise great control. Can it be that because its not always in front of us, that we allow unkind, harsh words to be placed onto this mediums?
Words hurt. Words are easier to place into the cosmos. Harder to get cancelled.
Time to engage more with our minds, rapidly grasp hurt we are causing. Stop it. let’s stop relentlessly sniping at each other. Laughing putting each other down.
With myself ,encourage us to remember that those in our tribe are allowed different view, they are part of the Bride of Christ. The Church, our brothers and sisters.
