“A gospel that does not deal with the issues of the day is not the Gospel at all.” --Martin Luther
Have you ever wondered why the Christian faith has become weak and ineffectual in dealing with issues of politics, economics, business, media, arts and entertainment and even daily issues of life?
Do you know why the most Christianized city in America actually ranks way down the list when it comes to providing basic human services compared to lesser Christianized cities?
Throughout history, people of faith have thought and acted in ways that influenced communities and nations affecting development of public education, workers rights, economic development, the concept of a free press, help for the victimized and the disenfranchised. Martin Luther is recorded to have said that a gospel that does not deal with the issues of the day is not the Gospel at all.
Landa Cope has written a book entitled The Old Testament Template: Rediscovering God’s Principles for Discipling All Nations. In this thought-provoking book Landa reveals the biblical thinking that addresses the issues of the 21st century in an effective and redemptive way as found in the Old Testament. It was this transformational document that was revealed to the Hebrews who came out of a life of slavery and now had to form an entirely new nation. How would God lead them using this template?
The answer provided in this book is relevant for the transformation of cities and nations today.
More than 30 years ago, Loren Cunningham and Bill Bright were given messages for one another at the same lunch meeting. What was that message? The message was that if we are going to reclaim society, we must raise up leaders who can affect the seven mind molders or seven mountains of culture—business, government, media, arts and entertainment, family, religion and education. Unfortunately, our focus on the last 30 years has been evangelism instead of discipling and changing of nations from the inside out.
Landa Cope’s book is a blueprint for how transformation can be done in a modern society. You will be excited to learn that God has provided a blueprint in the Old Testament for city and nation transformation. Landa has combined theology with practical ideas on what we can do as a Church that should be relevant to our world. She provides help in identifying where we went wrong and what we have to do to right the course. If you are a person who desires to see our culture impacted for Christ, this is a must-read book.
