Rediscovering the Healing Power of the Gospel for our Times
April 23-30, 2023
OTTAWA
In this postmodern age many think that no one can know Truth. It is true that we cannot know truth if there is no revelation from God." – Vishal Mangalwadi
DIG & DELVE and the South Asian Christian Fellowship invite you to come to this special evening with Vishal. He will be sharing with us thoughts stemming from his recent book "The Book that Made Your World: How the Bible Created the Soul of Western Civilization".
There will be no charge for this event but a free-will offering will be taken.
Must the Sun Set on the West
Why does the intelligentsia want to Cancel western Culture?
Because it was built upon the West’s original canon, the Jewish-Christian Bible. The counterfeit (Humanist) canon of Great Books of Western Civilization amputated the West’s soul climaxing in Nihilism — The Closing of the Western Mind, The Abolition of Man, morality and meaning.
The Book that Created the Modern West
Culture is externalization of inner ideas. Western civilization is the flowering of the Seed — the ideas, the Word — that the Bible planted in Europe and North America. It enabled the West’s amazing development that harnessed the energies of the human mind, heart, sex, nature and community.

The Bible replaced Europe’s irrational myths with revealed truth. It exchanged the fear of spirits, fate and fortune with the fear of God and confidence in His goodness and providence. It transformed Europe’s symbol of terror — the cross — into an emblem of honor, service, courage and freedom. By remaking Satan’s slaves into sons of God, the Bible set the West on a course of human mastery over nature.

How can a bunch of illiterate, powerless slaves become a free and self-governing nation — a light to other nations? Can a corrupt and oppressive regime become a kingdom of justice and righteousness? What made the Gospel, the source of West’s optimism?

The Christian university was the matrix of Europe’s historic reforms. It needs to re-establish the cultural authority of Veritas (truth) in our Age of Nonsense and empower future generations with Virtue (Character) making the church “the pillar and foundation of the truth.” (1 Timothy 3:15)

Pessimism and escapism have become two defining features of the North American Church. Nevertheless, the Church still has the capacity to disciple Canada by retaking its ministry to educate nations in order to fill the earth with the knowledge of Truth.
