Read on Twitter
Theres people apart of Christian Twitter that I communicated w/ that cut me off bc 100% of my tweets arenât peachy like they once were. I guess in doing so my CT âmembershipâ was revoked lol. I didnt understand it then but Iâm grateful for it now. I want relationship not religion
And being part of Christian Twitter made me feel as if I had to put religion at the forefront, not relationship. That became evident even in the way people reacted with each other within Christian Twitter itself. If you werenât religious, you couldnât have ârelationshipâ with CT
I remember seeing people in CT that were once on FIRE for God. And then Theyâd start backsliding and the âmembersâ of CT didnât even reach out to them. It was more of a âoop. Theyâve fallen and I wont help them get upâ. Instead of being a life alert for one another it was the opp
Theyâd completely disconnect themselves from that person instead of reaching out and exercising grace and helping that brother or sister back up.
There was this one girl specifically who was a Christian and out of no where she converted. And days later, you suddenly saw everyone stop interacting with her. It was in that moment that I asked myself âsis, what are you doing.â
I got off of Twitter for a little bit and regathered myself and my thoughts. Thatâs when I realized that I had become this super preachy, religious, unauthentic person just like everyone else on Christian Twitter.
I realized that I lost sight of myself and RELATIONSHIP with God because I was focused on religion. Making sure that all of my tweets had to do with God and nothing else or else I was no longer âsaved savedâ lol. Isnât that crazy? Since when was salvation based on tweets?

Leave it to the saints to determine that https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ¤Śđ˝ââď¸" title="Woman facepalming (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman facepalming (medium skin tone)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Face with rolling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Face with rolling eyes">
Anywho, I started being more of myself and being authentic. Of course my passion for Christ was evident but so was my personality, the things that made me laugh, etc.
Itâs when I did that that people started falling off. I stopped getting the group text invites, calls, mentions.

Slowly but surely I had no interactions or engagements with CT. I used to be hurt by it until God showed me what CT had become. And I wanted no parts.
Only but a handful (you know who you are https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="â¤ď¸" title="Red heart" aria-label="Emoji: Red heart">) continued to have genuine and true relationship with me and I am eternally grateful for our relationships to this day but others ran because to them my salvation was congruent upon how many Godly tweets I made.
This isnât to bash Christian Twitter or its members but this is more so an eye opener for those of you who were once apart of CT or even still consider yourselves to be... God is a God who is focused on relationship, not religion and maybe just maybe... you should be too
The cliques need to stop.
I saw someone tweet the other day that theyâre not apart of Christian Twitter because theyâre not in the âcliqueâ. Like the CLIQUE?! What?! Why is there even a clique? Weâre a BODY! THE body.
People shouldnât see or hear CT & the first thing that comes to mind are âcliquesâ.

We have to do better saints. And that is all.
