Fake news is
everywhere and social media keeps it alive. Recently there was a post about an
incident in Walmart where the voice over the PA system said Walmart no longer supports
the police. Many people commented on the post saying they would never shop at
Walmart again; however, a quick fact-check proved the post to be false. No
doubt the originator of the post thinks he/she will never be held accountable
for instigating lies and misinformation. Paul said, “Let no one deceive you with empty
words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are
disobedient. Therefore do not be partners with them” (Eph
5:6-7 NIV).
