Samuel is the listener who writes in to ask it. “Pastor John, can Christians who travel abroad visit the shrines and temples of other religions? Countries like India, China, Japan, Korea, and Thailand have places of worship that are culturally filled with wonderful art and history. One argument says it’s a great way to learn more about the culture, as long as we don’t participate in the rituals. However, another argument says that a Christian should stay far away from idol worship and demonic activity, and should not give even passive acceptance to a false god. This issue can be extended to visiting Mormon temples in Utah, or more controversially, Roman Catholic cathedrals and basilicas in Europe.” Pastor John, what would you say to Samuel?

I wish more Christians were thoughtful enough and discerning enough and spiritually concerned enough to even ask the question, instead of just letting their American tourist role or their artistic role or their wanderlust control their feelings and thoughts so that they do that thing without even asking those kinds of questions. I think that’s really good that he is asking it.
