Blogging The Bible

photo credit: carmen zuniga Are you blogging the Bible? You may be asking what exactly do I mean by “blogging the Bible” so let me explain. As Christians we are instructed to show the love of Jesus to others in John 13:34-35, “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.”
Blogging is a great way to show people Christ’s love. You don’t even have to blog about your faith or post biblical devotions to do so either.
Of course incorporating Bible verses in your blog is a great and easy way to show the love of Christ. After all the Word is God according to John 1:1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” You could even add a Verse of the Day widget your sidebar. But what if you don’t have a blog in which you can easily add scripture into where the topic is not faith related?
Having a loving attitude towards others is another way we can show the love of Christ on our blogs. Do you help a reader or fellow blogger when the need arises? Jesus is known for helping others. He is the ultimate good Samaritan. Do you live hurtful or hateful comments on other blogs? Leaving rude or hateful comments is not following the commandment given to us in John 13:34, to love one another. How you deal with people goes along way in showing the Jesus’ love for others and this applies in the blogging world too.

Courtney, I always try to find something positive to comment about after reading a blog post. If I don't agree, I try to put it in such a way as to consider another way of looking at this. I try to respond to most of the comments I receive on Heart Choices, if they have an email response available.
No matter where we are or where we're writing, we are a Christian first and the aroma of Christ should be apparent to others. Love makes all the difference.
Blessings,
Debbie
