Thou Shall Not Facebook says Pastor

Rev. to NJ church leaders: Thou shalt not Facebook
By WAYNE PARRY, AP
2 hours ago


NEPTUNE, N.J. — Thou shalt not commit adultery. And thou also shalt not use Facebook.

That's the edict from a New Jersey pastor who feels the two often go together.

The Rev. Cedric Miller said 20 couples among the 1,100 members of his Living Word Christian Fellowship Church have run into marital trouble over the last six months after a spouse connected with an ex-flame over Facebook.

Because of the problems, he is ordering about 50 married church officials to delete their accounts with the social networking site or resign from their leadership positions. He had previously asked married congregants to share their login information with their spouses and now plans to suggest that they give up Facebook altogether.

The apostle Paul didn't say anything against it. This must just be legalism.

This is he of whom it is written: ‘ Behold, I send My messenger before Your facebook, Who will prepare Your way before You.’
