For some reason, my Facebook feed is absolutely cluttered with post after post after post where people have some dumb image with a message that says something like this:<\/p>\n

Share this post if you love Jesus!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

or<\/p>\n

Want to be blessed? Leave a comment that says “Yes!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

or<\/p>\n

Don’t be ashamed of the Gospel. Tell others about Jesus by sharing this post!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

or<\/p>\n

Want an answer to prayer? Type “I claim the blood of Jesus” in the comments.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So I laughed so hard when I saw this image today:<\/p>\n

\"bless<\/p>\n

Anyway, here is my response to these sorts of Facebook posts:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. STOP IT!<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. This is why\u00a0non-Christians roll their eyes at Christians and think we’re idiots.<\/li>\n
  3. I am now unfriending every person who leaves a post like this on Facebook.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
