“America's Christian conservative movement is confronted with this divide: small-government advocates who want to practice their faith independent of heavy-handed government versus big-government sympathizers who want to impose their version of 'righteousness' on others through the hammer of law....

“It shouldn't be difficult, then, to make the transposition at this point into the early Christian vision of Jesus and the Spirit and the way in which the material world is both celebrated and renewed through their work. The Jewish basis for the early Christian patterns of belief and behavior is clear. It is important that God's people are embodied, because God made this world and has no intention of abandoning it. The material of creation is a vessel made to be filled with God's new life and glory, even though the transformation may involve suffering, persecution, and martyrdom.” PeopleWorldWayMayMadeImportantChristianSpiritSufferingJesusBeliefDifficultVisionClearCreationThis WorldMaterialsBehaviorGloryBasesTransformationFilledIntentionPatternsPersecutionNew LifeVesselMartyrdomMaterial WorldChristian Persecution Author:N.
