We have, in recent times, seen the emergence of what NCAY calls the 'culture cult'. It is considered (in secular terms) a grievous sin ('politically incorrect') to speak ill of any culture and strenuous efforts are made to preserve all cultures (with the exception of forms of biblical Christianity), no matter what their content. At the same time, a double-standard is imposed because unseen powers, aided and abetted by various shadowy organisations, are seeking to create a new 'world culture' based on values that are decidedly anti-Christian/Messianic.
What actually is a culture? And is Christianity/Messianism flexible enough to accommodate different cultures? What cultural values are unacceptable in a Christian/Messianic context?
In this page we will see how there are, in Yahweh's eyes, only two cultures:
- 1. The Zionic Culture (the millennial theocracy); and
- 2. Satanic Cultures (the polyglot of world cultures that exist and have existed).
True Christians/Messianics should not be compromising with culture for culture's sake but be carefully assessing the content of the culture in which they live in the light of the Millennial Culture to come.
In this page we will be offering guidelines as to how messianic communities and churches may teach their members to start aligning themselves to the coming theocracy by setting up small counter-cultures in their homes, congregations and - wherever possible - in communal gatherings of like-minded believers.
