This is part three in a series of sermon notes on revival. Visit our website if you missed the first two parts. There are three spiritual phenomenon’s God uses to change a culture.
1. Transformation. 2. Restoration 3. Redemption Today we'll look at transformation. 1. TRANFORMATION: Romans 12:2, "be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind," TRANSFORMATION: The obligation being to undergo a complete change which, under the power of God, will find expression in character and conduct. In culture, character and conduct are the fruit of our culture. If the culture is corrupt then character and conduct will be corrupt. No one can change their character and conduct to the point where God is pleased without His power being allowed to make the change. It is through the power of the word and the Holy Spirit that man can change. The more people change the more culture changes. If there is a drug culture or alcohol or any sin culture, only the gospel of Jesus can change it. Poverty is a cultural matter. At this writing, Polk county is ranked number 5 in poverty in Florida. When people serve the lord and transform their mind with the word of God and become givers, their poverty level will change. Tomorrow we'll explore restoration. Be Blessed!
