There is a difference between a racist and culturalist.
According to Websters Dictionary "A racist believes that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race".
A culturalist believes our cultural worldview, artistic content, spoken and unspoken codes of conduct, and pre-suppositions shape our character, attitudes and behaviors.
As Christians we have to take culture (how we are) and match it up to Christ (how we should be).
Our character has to line up with the person and teachings of Jesus Christ and Holy Scripture to determine how foolish or wise our culture is.
All cultures have foolish ideas and patterns of behavior.
A Christian Prophetic Culturalist exposes and encourages repentance towards Christ with the negative aspects of culture and encourages celebration of Christ concerning the beautiful and noble aspects of culture.
Are you a racist or culturalist?
