A Follow Up Address On How Believers Can Faithfully Navigate This Cultural Moment | Pastor Josh
Description
A follow up address from Pastor Josh on how believers can faithfully navigate this cultural moment.
Three Main Points:
1. Acknowledge the grief of living in a broken world.
2. Recognize that we must faithfully engage the culture.
3. Begin to engage each other with humility.
Six Principles for Cultural Engagement:
1. We are to seek the peace of Babylon. (Jeremiah 29)
2. We are called to embody the gospel, not just recite it.
3. We have to engage in humility even in hostile places (Acts 17)
4. Remember we are engaging with the spiritually blind.
5. The world hates Jesus; therefore, it will hate us. (John 15:18 )
6. What Satan meant for evil, God will work for good. (Genesis 50:20 , Romans 8:28 )
Word of Exhortation for the Church:
1. Words can murder; don't let your words turn to bullets.
2. Judgmental expectations are divisive.
3. Jesus must increase and we must decrease; HE unifies his church.
4. Jesus must be the flame of revival.
