culture shock: in the world

culture shock: in the world by ric Gustafson


Jesus Christ experienced culture shock when he left heaven and came to earth. Jesus left the glory of heaven and came to a planet covered by sin. The Apostle Paul writes that though he was rich he became poor. Jesus encountered culture shock living in a fallen world.
We encounter culture shock in this world being a follower of Jesus. We need to do what other followers of Jesus have done through the centuries. We need to be in the world and not of the world.
So how do we do that?. We need to remember the sick, remember the beauty of Jesus, remember the dangers of sin, remember the truth of God's Word and to remember our priorities in Jesus.
Praise God.
