Sermon start time: 02:56. Sermon end time: 14:39.
The Christian relationship to the world can be difficult to discern at times. Because we see the world is in rebellion against God, we are tempted to want to remove ourselves from it. Yet this same rebellion dwells within our hearts and churches. Nor can we wholeheartedly embrace the world. In John 17, we see that Jesus calls us in the world, as the object of divine love to love it, minister to it, and challenge it. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
Key quotation: “God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son, and it is in that son that we see the way in which we are supposed to engage the world…We must engage it, we must love it, we must minister to it, yes indeed we must argue with it…because it’s the object of God’s love.”
