Is it a sin to use social networks?

Itself is not sin, legalism would say that having internet and membership in a social network is sin. The problem lies in the use we make of it, the Facebook / Twitter is not used? - In a social network you can do many good things, which can to bring good news to others that are a million kilometers from us. But it can also be used to promote the kingdom of Satan, to encourage illicit relationships, to deceive, to defame, to promote an immoral life, to show our body sensually ... anyway you can use to put the name wrong our Lord Jesus Christ unbelievers who do see (full color) that although I am a Christian / to live as I want, and there are pictures to prove it.What should we consider when a social network is used?

a) The holy Christian is called to be holy (1 Corinthians 1: 1-2)
1Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and brother Sosthenes, 2nd the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

You and I have been sanctified (set apart for God) in Christ Jesus, this is what is known as positional holiness. But the verse also says "called to be saints", this speaks of a practical holiness that must be manifested in our daily lives. So, we can say that as Christians Are we saints? Aye, through Christ we are, but we are also called to live in practice a secluded life for God.

Why should we remember this? -why Practical holiness includes not only our actions and thoughts, but also our profile on FaceBook, our comments, photos and videos that we share. or do you think that is not included?

It occurs to me to call this "virtual holiness" God wants us to do a holy use of the Internet and social networks. What we are seeing things and sharing online, disclose to others that are set apart for God?
