What Does the Bible Say About Social Media?
Key Scriptures and spiritual guidance on social media
La Biblia aborda las redes sociales de muchas maneras. Aunque las plataformas de redes sociales no existían en tiempos bíblicos, los principios bíblicos sobre la comunicación, la interacción humana y la sabiduría son aplicables al uso de las redes sociales en la actualidad. La Biblia nos exhorta a ser cuidadosos con nuestras palabras, a evitar la difamación y a construir unos a otros con lo que decimos en línea. También enfatiza la importancia de usar nuestras palabras para edificar, animar y consolar a los demás en lugar de sembrar discordia o división.
