Is an Instagram ‘like’ micro-cheating? Gen Z embraces digital sleuthing.

Article Date - 06/26/2024

COMMENT: In the realm of downgrading sin, when Jesus said, "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart" (Matthew 5:28), He did not make any exclusions. Therefore, in this digital age where imagery and conversations can take place without even meeting the person making it easier to lust after images of the flesh and having a conversation that is not appropriate physically with another does not become an exception. "But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death" (James 1:14-15). Sin starts in the mind. If it is triggered because of lusting after someone or an image, it does not matter. Using the excuse that you cannot talk the way you do with your spouse or someone you are courting but you can easily on the internet, that is still cheating. Putting the word "micro" in front of the word cheating is still cheating. In God's eyes, both a physical cheater and a microcheater will end up in the same place unless repented of their sin.
