The True Christian Victory Over Evil is not Retaliation, but Righteousness.

Let everything you say be good and helpful

Christians can make social media better by using it as a tool to reflect Christ's love, truth, and grace.

Lead with Love, Not Division

• Share messages that build up, not tear down, Let your words be tools of healing and hope, not weapons of hurt. Ephesians 4:29

• Avoid harsh arguments and instead choose gracious speech. Your words can either push people away, or draw them toward Christ. Colossians 4:6

• Show compassion even when you disagree. Peter 3:9

 Be a Peacemaker

• Don’t spread gossip, rumors, or conspiracy.

• Promote unity and understanding across divides.

• Refrain from stirring outrage, "Blessed are the peacemakers. Matthew 5:9.

A peacemaker is someone who actively seeks to create peace through truth, justice, and reconciliation, even if it’s hard. Unlike a peacekeeper, who avoids or suppresses conflict to maintain outward peace, even if real problems remain. God calls us not just to keep the peace, but to make peace, even when it’s uncomfortable. That’s how real healing and unity happens, and how we reflect His heart.

Share Truth with Grace

• Post Scripture, testimonies, and uplifting content.

• Speak truth, but do it in love Ephesians 4:15, not pride or condemnation.

• Avoid twisting verses to win debates or shame others.

In Ephesians 4:15 Paul is saying don't be deceived by lies or false teachings. Always speak the truth but do it in love, not harshness.

Encourage and Uplift

• Celebrate others’ wins.

• Comfort those who are struggling Romans 12:15.

• Be known as someone who spreads light, not just opinions.

When someone is happy, celebrate with them; don't be jealous. When someone is hurting, sit with them in their pain, don’t ignore it or rush them to “feel better."

Use Discernment

• Pause before posting or reposting, ask: Is it true? Is it helpful? Is it loving?

• Stay away from harmful trends or jokes that mock or divide.

• Don't spread what you didn't check. Just because it went viral doesn't mean it's valid.

Guard Your Witness

• Remember, your words and behavior online represent Christ.

• Your profile might be the only “Bible” someone ever reads.

• “Whatever you do… do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus.” Colossians 3:17

In all your words and actions, remember to keep Jesus in mind, honoring Him and doing so with a thankful heart.

Pray Before You Post

• Ask God to guide your heart and words.

• Use social media as a place of ministry.

Ask the Lord, to give you wisdom and to use your words well, eyes to see truth, and a heart that reflects Him. You want to bring light, not noise.

In a world where social media can either build up or tear down. "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” ~ Romans 12:21 Social media doesn’t have to be a battlefield, it can be a mission field.

Dear Lord, guide our hearts, our words, and our scrolling. Help us to use our time on social media wisely and with purpose. Let what we post bring hope, not harm, truth not gossip and peace, not conflict. Give us wisdom to know when to speak and when to stay silent. Help us to be kind, even when it’s hard, and to see people the way You see them.  Let everything I do online reflect Your love and light. In Jesus' name. Amen.
