The night is almost gone, and the day is near. Therefore let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. – Romans 13:12

Some Christians get nervous in discussions about the Christian’s responsibility to the culture. A major concern is that the Gospel will be obscured in favor of social concerns. Let me assure you that when it comes to the lost, evangelism must come first. We must win people to Christ.

Without Christ, it doesn’t matter how much money people have or how good their jobs are. If they die without Christ, they die without life. Yet we still have to live in this world until Jesus returns, and while we’re here, we need to also be salt and light in our culture, just as Jesus commanded. We are responsible to recapture our society for Jesus, point people to Him, and promote His righteousness in society.
