Is Christian culture growing or receding?
Our group did some evanglelizing over a week ago. It seemed to fire up the people who shared our church, God and the love of Jesus but so far, only 2 visitors came. We need follow-up. But, when one witnesses the Hollyweird Oscars, one is forced to see that our culture is being bombarded with anti-God views and the MSMedia keeps pounding that theme. The History Channel last night, Sun., had hours of material on Hell, Satan, and the Anti-Christ. Some participants called these themes, legends. So much for an acceptance of the Biblical reality. Perhaps we are in the End Days. If so, Christians and believing Jews must gear up their loins to fight the fight of faith against the rising secularism that is attacking our families, schools, media, and government. What our grandfathers took for granted over 60-70 years ago, the Christian culture as part and parcel part of our everyday living, is now gone. Most young people have no idea of Biblical, Christian themes, culture et al. The Yuppies, Boomers have little more information or foundation for those themes. So, when young people, middle aged people and seniors who have these foundations and themes underlying their very lives reach out to our society, it is more likely a war of ideas, culture, and world views rather than a shared culture which our grandparents once knew. Yep, it is a war. It remains to be seen if today's Christians are up to the battle.
