Occupy Now
Copyright © January 09, 2021 Douglas W. Jerving.

I encourage everyone that loves America, is conservative or libertarian or is
a Bible-believing Christian to exit Facebook and Twitter, with a few
exceptions.
If you are running a business that depends on those platforms, stay on them
until you are matching or exceeding your results on a new platform. That may
not take as long as you think.
If you are using those platforms as a tool to directly challenge the left
with the truth, stay on, and keep doing what you are doing until they force
you off. That may not take long either!
If you are using FB and Twitter as evangelistic tools to share the Gospel,
stay with it if possible.
Remember that culture wars are not won by handing the culture over to those who
hate you and retreating into your little Christian cocoon. That is how we got
into this mess in the first place. The goal of our opponents is to marginalize
us; to shut us up and shut us down.
Jesus told us to "occupy" until he returns. That is war terminology, and we
are in a war. Occupation implies that we are already victorious. We are just
waiting for our General, our King, Jesus Christ, to return for the final events
to take place.
For me, all three reasons are applicable. They may not all, or any of them,
apply to you.
