“God’s paradigm for cultural change” is modeled in the life of Jesus. “Jesus’ strategy for change [is]: A. Come follow me (Matthew 4:19), B. Come be with me (Matthew 26:38), [and] C. Go! (Matthew 28:19).”27 Abiding in Christ, imitating him, and then modeling his example to others in one’s life is the biblical plan for generating a culture of peace.
