We Need To Disturb the Culture
The church needs to infiltrated everything. This is what we need
today. We need Christians to go out and make a difference. We need
Christians involved in the arts, making great films and creating graphic
design. We need Christians in places of authority, because the Bible
says that when the righteous rule, the people rejoice (see Proverbs
29:2).
We need Christian doctors, lawyers, and businesspeople. We need believers to let their light shine in this culture today.
Religious
leaders in Thessalonica had this to say about Paul and Silas: “These
who have turned the world upside down have come here too” (Acts 17:6
NKJV).
G. Campbell Morgan said, “Organized Christianity which fails to make a disturbance is dead.”
Believers
in the first century made a disturbance because they understood that
God had called them to do their part. They took risks. They left their
comfort zones. In the Book of Acts, we see their fearless preaching,
their expectant prayer, and their willingness to obey God.
Twenty-first-century
believers should be living like these first-century believers,
impacting our culture. We should be making a difference. We should be
turning our world upside down.
G.E.
