I'm guilty of being a facebook addict but this video helps put things in perspective.I've tried going on less for the past few months. I've never played farmville or any of those games. However, there's a new game on facebook called Robot Unicorn Attack and it is very addicting, and I have been on facebook a lot more recently because of that. Myspace was much easier to leave. glad you reach out to non-believers in your videos :) have a good new year man
If I sood before God I would not bow,Instead I would ask why he had all the first born of Egypt kill,Ex.12;29. Then I would ask about all the atrocities he ordered in the old testament, and wether he answer or not I would call him or it a murderer.
speaking as a nonbeliever i wouldn't tell him "i didn't have time to find out who you were"... maybe as a "meak believer" yes... but as a nonbeliever i would tell him "holy s***, you're real?!?" :)
but i've searched for god enough in my roman-catholic years... now it's time for him to serach for me ;)
as for the rest... yea i agree... a lot of people, me included, could do better things with their time :)
There is a book called The Kingdom, Power, and Glory by Chuck and Nancy Missler. It is a very in depth study of how our actions here as believers determine our "inheritance", i.e., levels of responsibility, Then. (Of course, this is not to be mistaken with works-based salvation at all.) Chuck Missler has a technical background, and gets into some real whoppers. You've GOT to read him.
Right when you said "What if everything disappeared and we were standing in the presence of almighty god" I had taken a big bite of Fiber One and it was kind of a surreal moment. Okay, lemme press play and finish this.
I spend too much time on fb, too, and would like to cut down, but I DON'T consider the world of fb "silly." It has put me back in touch with dear, dear friends from childhood and high school. These people mean every bit as much to me as my current friends do, and they know me more intimately, having seen my formative years.
This contact breaks down the barriers of the modern world, which forces people to move away from family and friends for their careers.
@EyeLean5280 I am not saying that it is all "silly". But what I am saying is that it can get that way. You can go on and make contact with friends you have not seen in decades. But when it takes the place of us spending time trying to answer the big questions about who God is and where we place Him in our lives, that's when it gets silly.
I can only imagine the reactions of Christians who devote a large quantity of their time forming relationships and witnessing to people via FB, given that "everyone" is there. Well... Except for me =D
I would just ask him a whole lot of questions... I would need no excuses, since I did search for him, but the fact that everything that used to be explained by God is now explained by Naturalistic Causes didn't help His case with me. Then, the fact that not 1 single religion could provide something that no other could was pretty much the last nail on the God coffin for me. I wouldn't feel ashamed, it would be His fault. If He wants me to know Him, He knows what to do, but I dont think Hes there
Dude, this is AWESOME!!! I've been signed out of FB for about a month and yeah, its been a blessing to let go...
Thanks for the confirmation, my friend!

...and besides, I hear more about God on fb than anywhere else, and I hear it every day.
Several of my old friends (some conservative, some liberal) are very religious and post prayers and personal spiritual musings regularly.

@QuestionChrist, oh. In your description underneath, I got the impression that "silly" was what you meant.
But I do agree with you that the *amount* of time I spend on fb is indeed silly.
