Importance of the use of social networks in the church

Good afternoon great community. Blessings to all.

Today we live in a globalized world, where technological progress and communication is faster and more effective every day. It is impressive to realize the impact and effectiveness of social networks as a means of communication, where news from around the world run as fast through social networks as television news networks, so now they use the networks to report on real time.

In view of the reality in which we live, it is necessary to focus attention on social networks as a means of communication and teaching, because it will allow us to communicate and teach the word of God to all who believe, not only the neighbors and friends we have in our community. environment, will also encompass all those people and Christian communities around the world.

The idea is to use social networks and teach the congregation to use them correctly. The problem is not the tool, but the use with which it is given.

It is sad to see that through the networks God's children offend us, raise false, criticize, defame, debate, and it turns out that the whole world realizes the terrible division that exists between us. It is unfortunate to see that social networks are used by Christians to destroy each other

I speak of the Christians who feel the defenders of the doctrine and the only thing they do is waste their time judging in the networks, talking badly about someone. They judge whether they are God's or they are not. My advice is to not fall into the game of people who have nothing to do.

We must be aware that every tool in this life, without exception, is a danger if we do not know how to use it. That's where the urge to update as a church in something as relevant as social networks comes in. If we are leaders or parents, let us teach our people to use them correctly, so that your suggestions and advice do not remain.

The Bible tells us to have self-control and it is the quality that the Holy Spirit gives us to face adverse things, complicated situations and temptations without falling, and thus be able to walk through the places, still dark, carrying the word of God. Self-control is not to get away from the world, it is to walk the world without behaving as the world does.

The problem with social networks is that you have to simplify a whole teaching in a small fragment, in a sentence, video or image. Then look for what you want to convey be clear and simple.

The publications full of letters or that present difficulty to see, happen like unnoticed.

The important thing is to become more aware of what we publish and how we do it. Let us be beacons for those who do not live their Faith or who live halfway. Let us seek to improve in the transmission of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to reach more and more and better fulfill the task of bringing the good News of Christ.

Let's use social networks in search of Union, peace, solidarity, walk towards love and spread the word of God, demonstrate and feel Faith.

Let everyone join the same voice, peace and love. God made us and created us to be a good human being, follow the example and take advantage of this technological opportunity to get the word and the Union of the world.
