A Reflection On Culture

When I am weary of going against the flow

As believers, we must swim upstream in the raging rapids. The unbelieving world is radically opposed to the gospel, and the gospel is radically opposed to it. Are you discouraged in this upstream journey? Be encouraged. We will fit perfectly in the coming Kingdom. And as we live by its principles, we will draw others into it.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, . . . those who mourn, . . . the meek, . . . those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, . . . the merciful, . . . the pure in heart, . . . the peacemakers, . . . those who are persecuted.

Matthew 5:3-10, NIV
