Community Guidelines & Terms
A Biblical Lens is a Christian Bible app. It sets the Christian boundaries of the platform; you choose the Christian voices in your own feed.
Our foundation
A Biblical Lens exists to help people read, study and live out Scripture. Its foundation includes:
- Scripture as authoritative and central to the Christian faith.
- Jesus Christ as the Messiah and the Son of God.
- His death and resurrection.
- Salvation through Jesus Christ.
You choose your feed, from the catalog
- Creators, podcasts and websites come from a curated catalog, sorted by the kind of content (apologetics, Bible teaching, sermons and so on), never by tradition or denomination. Your feed holds only the ones you follow, and what friends share with you.
- Creators are selected for Christian relevance and biblical authority: Scripture as authoritative, and the historic Christian faith. The catalog is broad on secondary matters; faithful Christians disagree on many things, and it includes creators who do.
- Inclusion does not mean A Biblical Lens endorses every view a creator expresses.
Disagreement between Christians is welcome
Christians have long disagreed about many things, and that is allowed here. A Biblical Lens does not decide these questions and does not treat them as violations, including:
- Predestination and free will; eternal security and perseverance.
- Baptism, Communion and spiritual gifts.
- End times, the Sabbath and Torah observance.
- Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant differences; church government and worship practices.
- Other matters on which faithful Christians disagree.
Hide, mute and unfollow are for anything you would rather not see, including perspectives you disagree with. Report is only for content you believe breaks these guidelines.
What may be removed
Creators, sources and shared content may be removed from the community when they:
- clearly don’t belong on a Christian app (wholesome, family-friendly content that fits a Christian life, such as family, finances, health or education, is welcome);
- fundamentally reject its foundational Christian commitments above;
- are explicit or otherwise inappropriate;
- contain hate, harassment or abuse;
- are spam or a scam;
- are dangerous or illegal; or
- otherwise violate these guidelines or the Terms.
How creators are chosen
Creators are added to the catalog by A Biblical Lens after checking each one against these standards. Left out are prosperity and Word of Faith teaching, non-Trinitarian groups, supremacy movements, channels built on rage-bait or attacks on other Christians, and creators with major unresolved scandals. A creator can be paused or removed later; if you think one doesn’t belong, report it.
How reports work
- A report goes to a moderator for review. It never removes anything by itself.
- Moderators may dismiss a report, remove a specific post or comment, stop a creator or source from being shared in the community, or restrict an account that repeatedly or seriously breaks these guidelines.
- A Christian creator will not be removed because someone disagrees with their theology.
Be kind
Speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15). Posts, comments, prayer requests and encouragements are checked for profanity, and accounts that harass others may be restricted.
Your data
A Biblical Lens never sells your data. Your notes and highlights are private to you, friends are added only by invite, and prayer requests go only to the friends you choose.
