But here’s an interesting paragraph I read today in the blogosphere:
The problem is that this is not my point. My point is that there are fundamental problems in over-realized eschatology, both on the right and the left. I think we should stop quibbling about things like whether or not Lenexa, KS, has the same cultural environment as Miami, FL, and start worrying about whether or not anyone in either city has even encountered the Gospel. Hearing the Gospel proclaimed is not about putting it in the right fashion catalog. It is about whether or not the church itself has as its main focus a savior who transcends culture whose work is greater than aid.

However, we do need to realize cultural cliamte and try to identify with it as it pertains to our own identiy as a church body. I’m not saying we have to conform. We just have to have a certain sensivity to those around us; their struggles, their needs, and ultimately their reception of the Gospel.
