dc.description.abstractMilton Burk’s 1968 convention essay addresses the challenges of Christian witness amid the moral and social upheaval of the “space age” society. He contrasts the lawlessness and defiance of divine authority in modern times with the biblical understanding of human depravity and societal decay. Drawing from Romans 1, Burk diagnoses the rejection of God and His law as the root of societal disorder. He warns that even professing Christians may unknowingly absorb secular values, undermining their witness. Through vivid examples, Burk urges believers to reflect on how their behavior—whether in worship, finances, or neighborly conduct—affects the perception of the Gospel. He emphasizes that faithful witness must be consistent in both word and deed, especially in a society marked by confusion and despair. The essay calls for Christians to embody the sustaining power of Christ in all relationships, offering clarity and hope through their lives. —Abstract generated by Microsoft Copilot (GPT-4)
