The key to understanding what civilization is all about is the word `civil` which means courteous and polite .   

It is just an artifact of the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that the west became truly civilized.   

Apostles and ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ went all over the world making believers in every place.   

What happened to the middle east and Africa?.   Islam came along forcing Christians to denounce their faith in Christ and accept Islam.   This resulted in those areas of the world going back into darkness.   

Islam was stopped from taking over in north west Asia and Europe and so Christianity, freedom and progress occurred.   That is why the term Western Civilization came to be used.   

The key to the power of Christianity is a changed life.   This changed life is actually a New Creature who is capable of being courteous and polite.   

Christ Jesus said this:

And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them likewise. Luk 6:31 The Golden Rule.

And the second is like unto it, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. Mat 22:39 To love the Lord you must also love whom He loves.      This is impossible because, as we all know, people are nasty.      It is only possible for us to love the unlovable (which is what Christ does) by His Holy Spirit, whose first fruit is love.

We know that Christian`s do not perfectly keep these commandments.   But, to the extent that they know this is their Lord`s will, they aspire to keep them.   

This is the key to ChristianCivilization:
   → a changed life
   → love commandment

Christians were enabled by their Lord to be cooperative, to be tolerant and to be happy with the success of others.   

This attitude difference enabled the people in Europe, and later America, to accomplish things that improved life for everyone.   

Without getting into the details of his life let me point out that Henry Ford wanted to make it possible for every person to own a car.   You may argue that it increased his sales and profits, but the reality is that he could have become super-wealthy by buying cars for and charging exorbitant prices to the wealthy.   

Having a sense of community and a care for it is intensely associated with Christianity.   

Western Civilization is Christian Civilization.   

As we see the beneficiaries of Christian Civilization forsaking their roots, we see a fragmentation and dissipation of civilization.   The result is that everyone is getting worse off.   

It is important to separate technology from the concept of civil as technology cannot be courteous or discourteous.   Neither can it be polite or impolite.   

Technology is controlled by people and people are controlled by their hearts.   

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. Luk 6:45 The Lord is good and anyone who aspires to be good must be filled with the Lord the Holy Spirit.     He it is that manifests good in us.     Phi 2:13 Our hearts must be transformed by the power of the Word and the Holy Spirit.

Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Pro 4:23 Even in the New Birth we need to recognize that our New Spirit self is unable to manifest Sonship if our Soul ( Mind and Emotions) are Carnal.     They must be Transformed in order for Abundant Life to manifest.

The Spirit Of Globalism is the Spirit Of Antichrist and its goal is to destroy Christian Civilization.   Since Christ Jesus is the light of the world, this goal is to put humanity back into darkness.
