Biblical Worldview Thesis

846 Words4 Pages

Introduction/Thesis
A Biblical Worldview is your view of the world through a biblical perspective. Worldviews are very important because they influence everything you do and every decision you make. That is why it’s important to know your worldview and to make sure it is in line with God’s word. It is also important to know your worldview because it affects your witness to others about God’s salvation. In Romans 1-8 Paul gives you some information that will help build a foundation for a biblical worldview. II. The Natural World
My view of the natural world is that God created everything. It says in Genesis 1:1 (NIV) “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” God can be seen everywhere you look in creation. Everytime I see …show more content…

They started committing immoral acts and worshiping false Gods. They decided there way was better than Gods. Our culture today is the same as theirs. People still believe they know better than God and continue to do whatever they want. It says in Romans 2;12 (NIV) “All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.” People need to turn from their sin and follow God before it is too late. God wants everyone to be repent and be saved, but they have to choose Him for themselves. No one can make someone believe in God. One day Jesus will return and when He does it will be too late for those who refused to believe. We do not know how much time we have so we need to witness to others whenever we get the chance.
VI. Conclusion
It is important to have a solid biblical worldview. This means that your worldview needs to have a strong foundation in the word of God. Your witness for God is more effective when you know what you believe and can back it up with scripture. I believe that God is the creator and that He is coming back someday to take us home to heaven. All we have to do is ask Him for forgiveness and believe in Him. God will give us eternal life and we will be with Him forever in heaven.

    When talking about the bible it is not important to reach the conclusion on the conversation it is important to start the conversation. Interpretation of the bible needs to be an open mind. Some people are going to think differently of the bible than you; but you have to keep an open mind because there is no right or wrong answer. You also have to forget what everyone else is telling you about the bible to be able to have your view and interpret what you think of it with the opinion of other people. The bible does not only have one view and as Brueggemann states, “The Bible requires human interpretation which is inescapably subjective.”

    When the Europeans arrived in North America, many changes came into the lives of indigenous peoples. These changes included things such as new weapons and horses, which made hunting easier, but Europeans also killed indigenous people, treated them as though they were less than human, and took their lands. These immoral things happened because of European desire for riches and glory. Because of this, the European impact on Native Americans should be seen as a moral question. Upon their arrival, Europeans saw indigenous people as heathens because of their religions and their difference in culture.

    INTRODUCTION The authority of the Scripture is fundamental to evangelical faith and witness. But at the same time, not all evangelicals affirm the inerrancy of the scripture. Biblical inerrancy affirms that the biblical text is accurate and totally free from error of any kind. The difficulty in affirming the inerrancy of scripture does not seem to be so much on the spiritual and moral teachings of the Bible, however, the difficulty perhaps seems to emerge on the issue of accuracy in other disciplines such as history, science and acheology.

    Conclusion There are several factors to be used to help identify or recognize a person’s belief system. One reliable source is to simply ask the right questions in reference to their origin, identity, purpose, ethics, or destiny. Ask questions like “How did life begin”, “Why do you believe we exist”, or specifically to destiny “What are your beliefs on life and death?” (Weider & Gutierrez, Finding Your Worldview 2014) From a Biblical worldview, Christians are taught to use the Bible to find answers to questions of where life originates from, or what our purpose is.

The four worldview functions are explaining, evaluating and validating, assigning and prioritizing commitments, interpreting, integrating, and adapting. The “explaining” function discusses how we, as a society, develop our picture of what REALITY looks like. The “evaluating and validating” function is to enable people to evaluate what goes on and around inside of them and validate common perceptions and behaviors.

  • The Role Of Creation In Hesiod's Theogony

    1791 Words  | 8 Pages

    Hesiod’s account of creation, as outlined in the Theogony offers one of the most detailed and accepted theories of creation in the Greek culture. On the other hand, the Biblical account of creation, regarded as a Hebrew culture creation account, is to date one of the most widely acknowledged and accepted versions across various cultures seeking explanations for the origin of life and the earth. However, even though these creation accounts originate from two different cultures, they share some thought-provoking parallels in terms of their content and intentions, as well as some contrasts that make each of the creation accounts unique. Both Hesiod’s and the biblical creation accounts are similar in that they argue that prior to the beginning of creation events, the earth was merely a void that had no shape or form and this void was filled with darkness.
