What did the apostle Peter think of non-Christian ‘culture’? He wasn’t very complimentary. He didn’t celebrate it or appreciate it. He doesn’t seek to preserve it. He describes it as ‘the futile ways inherited from your forefathers’ (1 Peter 1:18).
What Christian converts inherited from their family wasn’t valuable. He doesn’t want them to continue to pass it on to their children and grandchildren. It’s not a history to re-tell, but to forget. It’s not just a mix, with good bits and bad bits.
