Cyberstalking happens in numerous forms, but generally it’s a form of harassment over the internet (Alexy, Burgess, & Baker, 2015). The act is often planned and the stalker does it continually. In most cases, cyberstalking starts as a harmless interaction; however, it becomes annoying and threatening as it continues. For instance, when a social media user receives unpleasant messages, he or she can be amused and moves on. However, when these messages become consistent, they become a form of harassment. Cyberstalking victims are advised to report harassing messages to website owners and legal authorities because they can affect their mental health. However, cyberstalking does not only involve communication but also monitoring that can go on without the victim noticing.

The reality of Sickness and Disease The sequence of creation, fall, redemption, and restoration in the Biblical narrative describes the nature of God and reality. In creation, God creates man in His own image and likeness and with the intention that man will thrive in peace love, and kindness with the rest of creation. Here, there is no evidence of illnesses. Adam and Eve, however, eat the forbidden fruit which began the life of sin among mankind. Part of the punishment was having to work, sicknesses, and death. Thereafter, God sought to restore human beings to their former glory and sent His son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins (Larsen, 2015).
