Christian Apologist Says Social Media Like the Tower of Babel

Christian Apologist Says Social Media Like the Tower of Babel

Ravi Zacharias spoke to a group with n interesting message, saying that the internet, instant, global communication may be the new Tower of Babel.

Zacharias, who wrote several books including Why Jesus? Rediscovering His Truth In An Age of Mass Marketed Spirituality, said the idea of commonality and coming together, which is found in social media, goes all the way back to the book of Genesis when mankind wanted to build a tower for its own glory and for its own edifice.

Zacahrias also ties it in to the responsibility and priveledge of young believers today.  He says:

"Young people you have an incredible opportunity to be a witness because of the capacities that are now invested in you. Jesus said greater things of these you shall do. …Become a peace builder, a bridge builder, not a destroyer, and the way you do that is through friendships and relationships, and through authentic character."
