FaceBook: The Church For Salvation

\


       Facebook has surpassed the point of being just a social site for people to come chat it up with friends and people you don't know. Many people use the site as a free dating site. And why not use it for that. With all the woman posting half naked photos and with some of the men posting work out pictures lets use it as, FaceBook For Love. But that's another blog. This blog is about FB and the gospel so to speak. FB The Church. People look to prayer on FB more than just getting on your knees and talking to the man above in normal fashion. With everyone personal life put in the for front of FB its hard for people not to see you as the person you truly are. Every other stat I see is something about the lord from people who don't have any kind of church activity going on. Maybe these are the profits that were spoke of in the Bible. Now I'm not all peaches and cream myself so I'm not gonna be the first to pick up a stone and start throwing anything. I'm not around to judge anybody on there beliefs nor am I here to point fingers and start name calling. I'm just saying that folks need to calm down and pray to themselves. I myself put up inspiration quotes from time to time but as for as a prayer, I'll just keep that to me. Prayers are private unless your surrounded by a body of people who are looking at the same thing. Or your just saying a prayer for someone who needs it. The nosey people that you call your friend brings out the hammer of judgement every time they feel you post something private about yourself. You can say how much you don't care about what people say all you want. But truth be told you wouldn't get mad  when people start talking. You do it don't deny it. Its ok. They talked about  Jesus so there gonna talk about you, me, your parents, cousins and everybody else in the world. But I ask. Is FB the new church for salvation? I'm not saying that it is but the way its being used by some people, it is for them.





 There are several pages to be holy on FB. The church I attend has a page on FB. Now what gets me is that Jesus has a whole gang of pages. Now which is the real one? I'll leave that up to you to determine. I'll keep going to worship at church. FB is not the place for salvation people. Its time to wake up and find the lord the old fashion way. Its time to get off the couch and head back to you church home. If you don't have a church home then find one. There is a church at every other corner waiting for you to come in. FB doesn't have to be the choice of all your personal business. Let the Lord be your savior. That's why he died for us. He gave his life for he believed in us. What has the people of FB done for you? I'll tell you. NOTHING.....




    Now I must admit this is nothing but a rant. This is truly something that just popped in my head and  I'm like let me do a blog. I've put myself out there on FB plenty of times. I might just do it right now if the mood hits me. All I'm saying is let us get back to the church fam. Lets get into a setting and get use to be around folks again. We can use a church fam. And yes, there are hypocrites in the church but that's not why we attend. We attend to hear the word of God from what we should believe the minister is giving us.  I am a true believer no matter what goes on in my life. Lets change our ministry from FB to the church. I guarantee a better life and a lovely change
