Christians want to be informed on these issues. God has given us His standard: His Word. We need to understand what the culture believes about these issues and that cultural beliefs and mores differ from what the Bible teaches. Though the answers are difficult, God has given them to us. When we understand the issues and study the Bible, we can have an informed conscience and be able to interact with others in our culture in an intelligent, and more importantly, biblical manner. |
