I know I'll regret this, but here goes..."Facebook is a simple tool created by the evil people to guide goats in the church from ever being sheep!" Goats are goats NOT because of social media, rather, because they believe a false gospel. Sheep are sheep because they've been elected unto life, NO ONE or NOTHING can take them out of Christ's hand. They believe in His finished work, and they continually rest in Him. Social media has no bearing on anybody's eternal fate. The real danger are all the false teachers/gospels/professors who are on EVERY kind of platform, including SA. The self righteous always point to 'self', what you do, as 'evidence' of salvation, but, the bible says you will know them by their fruit, by what doctrine they adhere to, what Gospel they believe in. I see more divisiveness on THIS forum than I've ever seen on FB.

I am a Facebook user. I am not defending them (Facebook).
Words are important so you would do well to measure your words carefully so you are not guilty of false accusations, whether accidental or intentional.

Ad targeting isn't unique to Facebook. Google and other search engines do the same thing and many of my product searches have resulted in targeted ads for the same product on the sites that SermonAudio offers as news items.
It's a fact of life in the digital age.
So your wife has a Facebook account? The plot thickens. Beware that "Chistian" may judge her an unregenerate goat.
So now I'm defending Facebook? Maybe you need to do some research into what the bible says about bearing false witness.

Okay, thanks for clearing that up about a preview.
You clearly have a negative bias about Facebook and that's your right. You do well to avoid it. But you do not do well, as a professing Christian, to judge other Christians as unregenerate goats simply because they use Facebook. You know absolutely nothing about me or my walk with God to be able to make that judgment. And it is clear to me that you know very little about Facebook.
Right about what?
