One of the great blessings of the internet and blogs is that we can grow spiritually as well as intellectually. The interaction provided by the comment section allows us to be rebuked and corrected. It allows the gift of exhortation to be practiced in full voice.
It could be that you have the spiritual gift of exhortation. Some of you encourage. Some rebuke. Some correct. These are all expressions of exhortation.
So get out there and leave comments. When you read something verging on heresy, let the author know that you are watching and that the Holy Spirit is telling you there are issues. If someone takes an unpopular position that is right, let the author know you support him. The body of Christ can extend over the internet.
Perhaps one of the modern “translations” will label the gift of exhortation as “commentator” or “blogger” or even “troll.”
