Every True Church needs to respond to the good advice given to the Church in the New Testament of the Bible. All Churches, even multi ethnic ones, have a cultural background. The good advice given to the Church is not intended to change cultures. We should be free to express our Faith in God and Worship Him within our culture. The Gospel is not intended to make us conform to another culture, rather it is intended to conform us to the Image of Jesus Christ.
