Did Facebook just censor Jesus? Bizarre ‘hate speech’ message sparks concern

Quote:“Your post goes against our Community Standards on hate speech.”
At first glance, I assumed the bewildering message popping up on my Facebook app was a mistake — or a spoof of some sort.
“What in the world did I post?” I pondered.
But then I noticed the supposedly offensive message affixed to the bottom of Facebook‘s missive. A screenshot from an April 2 post on my page was highlighted.
It read, “Jesus died so you could live.”
It was a message I recalled posting early last month in an effort to summarize the central message of the Gospel: Jesus’ sacrificial death for mankind and his ushering in of hope and salvation. The message is essentially New Testament 101.
Though some might disagree with the proclamation, there’s certainly nothing about the wording that any rational person would call “hate speech.”
As I foggily stared down at my screen, I scanned the rest of the message to see what else the social media giant had to say about the purportedly inflammatory post.
And if you will confess with your mouth our Lord Yeshua, and you will believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall have life.
