Christianity and Partying
July 22nd, 2008 by Joe Ciccanti
Candidate for Governor Bill Lee talked about his faith on WGMD’s Jared Morris Show this morning.
First he says, ”I’m a Christian. I taught adult Sunday School for 27 years. I’m a God-based person, and I support Christian political agendas…”
He goes on to admit that he does drink, he does enjoy Dewey Beach. He enjoys the women, enjoys dancing, and enjoys the party atmosphere. He then adds, “As a Christian we are challenged to go forth in the world, not hide, and I like going forth and I have a good time. That’s been well documented, and I’m not ashamed of it at all.”
I would imagine there are Christians out there who disagree with his position. Those who agree might point to this verse, which says we are to be a light.
In Matthew 5:14, Jesus does say, “You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.”
But then in Romans 12:2, it says,
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
I was reading how many believers are so “in the world” that it is hard to distinguish them from the world. Then you have the other extreme. Some Christians remove themselves from the world to the point that they are no longer a light to the world. Certainly there must be a Biblical and practical balance. But is going out and partying with the crowd being a light? Is going forth to have a good time (depending on what is meant by ‘good time’) living the holy, set-apart Christian life? Are there any Christians who have any reaction to this?
