Creating Culture

What does it mean to create culture?

"The church must become more than a meeting of Believers; it must become a gathering of disciples who are being equipped to carry out the Great Comission from one generation to another, if we are going to create the culture of Christ.

"A faithful man was not merely one, but one who would pass on what he had received. I wonder what would happen if we understood faithfulness the same way?

"It is easy to blame institutions, the media, and secularists for many unwanted changes in our society, but I doubt that God does. He first looks at His own family for a place to assign responsibility.

"We must... change our minds about how to recreate our culture.

"Mass media is not our enemy. Mega churches are not either. But neither of these will take the place of personal relationships and personal ministry.

"The Abrahamic culture as revealed and fulfilled in Christ, swept over the goddess culture of Corinth, Athens and Ephesus. The pluralism of Rome fell before the power of the Gospel.
THE GOSPEL HASN'T CHANGED IN ITS POWER TO CHANGE CULTURE!"

~ Charles Simpson


"... the tree is known by its fruit." Matthew 12:33


What kind of fruit are we bearing??
