Restoring A Gospelised Culture

Christian living is not merely positional, i.e. God doesn’t give us the full gospel and Holy Spirit indwelling just to secure ourselves a place heaven. The grace and love of God is not a direct entrance ticket to heaven when we leave this world. Deeper than this, God’s grace and love are always with us even today, so that we can always meet God in all our situations, propelling us to increasingly abandon our old ways, thinking and nature and start living in the power of gospel at where we are and in all that we’re doing. Christian living is an ongoing self-gospelization process centering on the promise of God and unstoppable help of the Holy Spirit. As we resolve into living out Christ in all of our areas, the full gospel we root ourselves on will also create in us a heart of indebtedness to others, so much so that our hearts are also expanded by this full gospel, and evangelising to our family, closed friends, right to the people who’re different than us. Remnants have to start living in the gospel we’ve listened repeatedly. Before we seek to confirm Lord’s word, they’ll remain theoretical and vague. But as we confirm the Word until it becomes our values and heartbeat, we’ll start to think, decide and act in Christ, bringing a gospel culture around us. The Lord will surely fulfil His Great Commission through the gospel culture we have and through the mutual edification of His children.

A time of spiritual warfare and watchfulness.

  • Power of various idols:
    • Ancestors and household gods
    • Good luck & prosperity
  • Pressure to stand by the Christian faith
  • Temptations abound
  • Internal struggles (loneliness, discouragement)
  • Stress to evangelise
  • Happy atmosphere must not distract us from God’s purpose
  • Be set apart and vigilant

 

<Ephesians 6:18> And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. 

 

<2 Timothy 4> 

2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.

5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.

 

<1 Peter 2>

11 Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul. 12 Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.

14 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.” 15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16 keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. 17 For it is better, if it is God’s will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil. 

 

Also a time of opportunities.

1) To demonstrate Christian love.

2) To share the gospel.
