Taking Back American Culture

In His Presence: Jeremiah 29:4-14

“[He] is able to establish you according to [the] gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret for long ages past, but now is manifested . . . leading to obedience of faith” (Romans 16:25-26, emphasis added).

One major problem in America is that Christians often separate the personal message of salvation from its practical implications. As the Gospel—the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ—is proclaimed, a concern for human needs should flow naturally out of its effect on people and the community. Unfortunately, a trait of our individualistic age is that people care very little about the deterioration of our society.

When the Gospel has permeated a group of people, there should be a shift from social inertia to social sensitivity. This increases the importance of Jesus’ statement: “By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). Our testimony is enhanced by the social interactions that take place between Christians and the world. It is unbiblical to believe that our faith in Jesus Christ has no bearing on the needs of this world.

American culture will be reclaimed when Christians regain spiritual clarity. When the Jews were sent into exile, they ended up living within Babylonian culture—a clearly pagan culture. They had to work hard to establish themselves again as a set-apart, unique people.

“Build houses and live in them; and plant gardens and eat their produce . . . seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile”(Jeremiah 29:5,7).
