Not the same war that Alex Jones fights, but the one where we as Christians:
"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."
I was just trying to look out for my brethren...
Then a few months back a flurry of misinformed memes/news popped concerning the shooting of Michael Brown and other Black American Males.
That's when I stopped trying to show people, I was burned out on it, and still feel burned out.
Lately, this trend has increased, so much so that someone decided they would actually give "prophecy news" from the pulpit.
My reaction:
I've been seeing more and more bad information pop-up on fellow covenant keepers Facebook feeds.
I mean, I expect Babylonians to fall for non-sense, but people with God's Spirit?
If I'm ever wrong about something, I'm like:
But now I'm convinced after this much time lending a hand in proving all things that some people really do not care about proving any thing.
They just want to be first to the "information market" with the "news" they found.
Instead of people doing this:
"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."
people are doing the following:
"Prove some things; hold fast that which makes us feel good."
Information Warfare, it's real, and people really enjoy being misinformed.
Now, I know what you're thinking...
"Christ-like character development is more important than knowing how news relates to prophecy..."
You're absolutely right.
Reading and Applying the Word of God is priority number one.
Becoming a better Christian everyday is way more important than knowing whether or not the President was born in Kenya or not.
I just find it really ironic that the very people who were taught (and even teaching):
"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."
don't actually do that.
Ironic and sad.

P.S.: No, I don't think I'm smarter than most people. I just wish people would second guess the information they see and hear.
