A Closer Look into Christian Worldview
God is the creator of the world. In the Bible the book of Genesis says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). God is the Sovereign Creator of the world, (Lecture Notes 2, 2015). Without the Lord we would not have life itself.
God possesses more than attribute. God is goodness, kindness, faithfulness, compassion, justice, love, and holiness, (Lecture Notes 2, 2015). God has supreme authority and absolute power over all things. In the Bible the book of Psalm it refers to God being transcendent and that he is eternal, infinite, omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient, immutable and incomprehensible, (Psalm145).

But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear,” (Isaiah 59:1-2). This means that there is never no sin that God will not take into consideration to forgive you for, you just have to ask for him to forgive you when you confess to committing it. “God is Light” (1 John 1:5). “This is significant for the discussion of confession,” (Simenon, 2014). God also wants us to forgive others just like he does for us and not hold grudges against other people.

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that cruse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despite fully use you, and persecute you,” (Matthew 5:43-44). Faith and grace play an important role is Christian salvation because it is imperative to being positive and believing that Jesus will come back for the saved Christians one day to
