Biblical Christian World View: Chapter Analysis

213 Words1 Page

The first eight chapters of Romans show themselves to be a particularly favorable resource for learning about the Biblical Christian World View. These chapters outline a Christian World View regarding such subjects as the natural world, human identity, human relationships, and culture; views often in direct contradiction to the popular view of modern society. This particular section of scripture describes our inability to achieve salvation through works, and highlights the importance of God’s grace to Christians and humanity as a whole.

We know, through the creation story in Genesis, that God spoke the world into existence. On the subject of the natural world, Paul says “For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature,

  • Interpreting The New Testament Through The Lens Of Our Twenty-First-Century Culture

    156 Words  | 1 Pages

    Jonathan, I agree with your statement we do tend to view the New Testament through the lens of our twenty-first-century culture. Even though we know that it's not the best way to interpret the New Testament we seem to get a better grasp from doing this. I like how you brought up the original authors of the New Testament and how they wrote through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Yes, it is difficult to fit in someone else's shoes, but the Holy Spirit that existed when scripture was penned can lead, guide and direct our path today just as it did then. I would agree with you that the three methods that the authors bring forth are a great way to view the New Testament.

While there are a number of questions that determine a person’s worldview such as identity and origin, people tend to discover (or think they discover) their purpose or meaning at work. With this in mind, Christians recognize that their purpose is to know and worship God. Additionally, Followers of Christ know that they should respect and serve (within reason) their managers as they serve Christ. On the other hand, managers should treat their subordinates in the same manner, since the Lord is the Master of both (Ephesians 6: 5-9, New International Version).
