What Do Christians Have to Offer?
Hatred, division, corruption, bribery, etc., all reflect spiritual problems. The teachings of the Bible offer answers to the social and economic problems that plague our world. The “us vs. them” mentality promoted by Hindu militants can weaken this great nation in a number of ways. Bribery, which is soundly denounced in the book of Proverbs, can drain any nation and prevent the people from getting the services they need. When money that should be used to build roads and schools winds up in a government official’s Swiss bank account, everyone but the corrupt one loses.

An article in the Hindustan Times points out that Christian schools in India teach about four million students, 80 percent of whom come from middle or upper caste groups. Could these schools be useful to India by teaching biblical ethics to India’s future leaders in a way that will also draw them to Christ? Integra (www.IntegraUSA.org) is a Christian endeavor that works in Eastern Europe. They are dedicated to developing business and job developing projects. They also have anti-corruption training that they hope will “push back the darkness.” Perhaps Indian Christians could begin similar projects in their part of the world.

Let’s Pray!
Let us pray that India’s Christian communities will act as salt and light to the business communities, most of which have no gospel witness. Pray that Christian schools will have a lasting spiritual impact on those they teach. Pray that India’s Hindu, Jain, Muslim, and Zoroastrian business communities will find wisdom and truth in the Bible that will help them improve their businesses, and give them thankfulness and allegiance to Christ.
