Whenever the strength of God is not recognized as the source of our strength, we are breaking the First Commandment: Do not have any gods before me," Piper responded. "In so far as 'Boston strong' or 'America strong' [if it] is God-neglecting, God-ignoring, God-minimizing, human-exalting, city-exalting, nation-exalting, it's wicked, it's evil."
Piper went on to suggest that such an attitude was the "the main problem in America today."
"The absence of God in most spheres of life is perceived to be normal, and even Christians feel it as normal — which is why absorbing the culture all around us and its priorities is so dangerous," he explained.
