We are saved, not by what we do but our faith in the Lord. But it is impossible to live by the values of the world instead of the values of our Savior and keep our faith pure.
Scripture gives us an example of what happens to God's children when they live and work in the pagans when it tells us of them living in Babylon, then how they were when they returned to Jerusalem. They had to be taught God's ways all over again.
In the 5th chapter of Matthew, Christ tells us the he didn't change any of the OT, but then he tells us how he fulfilled it. The OT told of God in fleshly terms, Christ explained the spiri of the Lord that flesh symbolized.
We are living in Babylon. Almost everything we see and use is made by man. Our food is almost all processed, eating food as God meant it to be is very expensive. Concrete has replaced grass. Newspapers have very little of the Lord, they are filled with sports as strangers to us play, and how the stars guide us instead of the Lord. Television trains our children, and we train them with nursery Rymes, not scripture. Our literature is filled sinful sex and murder.
