The technology god hates the most is the internet.
If we were supposed to be able to talk to anybody in the world instantly we would all be able to use telekinesis to talk to people anywhere.
Anybody who uses the internet will burn in hell.
Anybody who aids the expansion of the internet by means of making a website on the internet will be doomed to the worst eternity possible.
God created the internet.
Colossians 1:16 (King James Version)
16For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
I'm really not sure what to say here, after all technology is how I make my living.
If God is against technology, where do we draw the line? The Amish decided somewhere in the 1800's, technically the wheel is a form of technology.
Not really, brother. The wheel was invented a long time before the Word was given to us. How about we draw the line somewhere between 1604 and 1611, when our dear KJV1611 was translated from the Textus Receptus, the Masoretic Hebrew text and the Alexandrian LXX ? Everything that until THEN existed under the sun is everything that was meant to be, as our Lord clearly intended us 21st century dwellers to hear the True Word from King James' work, and not the previous, lesser Bible versions.

If God is against technology, where do we draw the line? The Amish decided somewhere in the 1800's, technically the wheel is a form of technology. I'm really confused by your point of view on this. Especially considering that we belong to a church that has a strong web presence.
Anointed preaching, Brother Jeb. Here's another passage from Ecclesiastes that teaches us the same message:
Eccl. 1:9-10: The thing that hath been, it [is that] which shall be; and that which is done [is] that which shall be done: and [there is] no new [thing] under the sun. Is there [any] thing whereof it may be said, See, this [is] new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.
Worshipers of the false god Technology would have us ignore this teaching.
See, this alone I have found, that God made man upright, and they -- they have sought out many devices.
Even the babblings of foreigners get it right:
עשה האלהים את האדם ישר והמה בקשו חשבנות רבים asah haelohim eth haadam yashar vehemhah bikkeshu chishbonoth rabbim.
"Elohim has made mankind upright, and they have sought many computations."
"He hath meddled with endless questions." - Vulgate.
"Many reasonings." - Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic.
Got that? God created us in His image, and He didn't give us facebook or twitter, and the only thing he wanted us to "stumbleupon" were the snakes and scorpions He sends to punish us for Pride. When we tried to build the Tower of Babel He punished us by turning foreigners into the incomprehensable babblers they've been ever since. How soon until Jesus ends the digital Tower of Babel 2.0, by making every nation have it's own computer-code?
