God On Social Media by Tobilexy: 8:53am On Jan 24, 2016 |
recent times I’ve been ruminating on the Omni-Presence attribute of the Supreme Being which connotes that God is everywhere and sees everything in the human realm of affairs. The bone of contention now is that, Is God also present in the abstract realm of social media? In other words, can we assume that God monitors our posts and comments? This thought was prompted by the incessant posts I’ve seen circulating which appears equivocal to me. It is highly myopic to put up a piece that is mostly sympathetic thereby compelling readers to comment, type amen or click Like button, as if that is not enough, some will go further to attach threats and curses that are religiously provoking. Well, this affirms my popular acclamation that Nigerians are notoriously religious. As a matter of fact, they have anthropomorphized God to an extent of repugnance. Let me quickly address these social media cankerworms, enough is enough! Come out of your strait-jacketed psyche. God only sees our hearts and is not necessarily on social media. Excuse me! God cannot send you a message on whatsapp or facebook and threaten evil if you do not share. Religious messages as far as I’m concerned are meant to be healthy and objective not scary and compelling. It is demeaning to tie our faith to an ordinary write-up probably composed by a charlatan whose aim is lost in oblivion. I will point the blame finger to the extremely gullible adherents, who exhibit their fears and shallow mindsets on social media. God is Transcendent and Benevolent, He will; never threaten just to make you obey. He will not ask you to type Amen just to become a billionaire. Hence, to the message broadcasting community on social media, we need inspirational messages not “the conversation between Devil and God” That is sheer religious quagmire! Please try other means of generating traffics for your egocentric profits because God’s Identity is a mystery using it carelessly is a blunder. Please let’s wise up and turn a new leaf. Long Live Social Media, Long Live Nigeria. by doctor zac. for more post visit https:// zaccheausgbengaayobami./2016/01/22/dr- zak-writes-6/#respond |
