Christian Worldview Analysis

364 Words2 Pages

The Christian worldview is about God’s desire to fix a broken relationship between Him and humans, His beloved creation. Humans rebelled against God and cannot save themselves because of their sinful nature. God is a perfect, holy, and righteous God, who cannot tolerate sin and evil. Numbers 14:18 (NIV) says, “The LORD is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation.” Because humans corrupted themselves, they are unable to enter into heaven. Since humans cannot save themselves, God sent His Only Son, Jesus, to die as a substitute for the sins of mankind. Romans 5:8 confirms this by stating,

    According to Nicholi Jr. (2002) our worldview, “helps us understand where we come from, our heritage; who we are, our identity; why we exist on this planet, our purpose; what drives us, our motivation; and where we are going, our destiny” (p. 7). The biggest strength of a worldview is that it enables an individual to form a theory of his or her own reality. The individual then utilizes this concept of reality and its ideals to understand the world in which they live in. For instance, my Christian Worldview is solely based on the solid foundation of God’s inspired Word.

    After explaining the beliefs of Dualism and Pantheism, Lewis raised a question: "If a good God made the world why has it gone wrong?" According to him, there are two views that face all the facts. One is the Christian view that this is a good world that has gone wrong, but still retains the memory of what it ought to have been. Firstly, for Christianity, evil is a parasite, not an original independent thing. The powers which enable to carry on are powers given it by goodness.

    Father Capon states that if what Helen’s notion of God is misconstrued, most likely by her Roman Catholic past. He suggests that she is thinking more along the lines of a Roman god of old or, for that matter, any other god but the Christian God. He goes into further detail by telling her a story of Caligula. Caligula, a Roman Caesar, fell ill and a loyal senator pleads to the gods to take his life in exchange for Caligula’s. When Caligula recovers from his illness he forces the man to take his own life to complete the bargain struck with the gods.

    My Christian worldview shapes my two philosophy choices in numerous ways. One way my Christian worldview shapes my Essentialism philosophy choice is by giving our student a road map of what will be expected as an adult. Psalm 32:8 states “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.” Just as God teaches, instructs, guides us daily, educators must teach our students the basic skills needed in order to thrive daily and as an adult.

    It claims that this religion instills guilt for the feelings and aspirations that are inherent to humanity while promoting a moral system that consistently goes against the instincts and nature of mankind. In seeking moral excellence and “the ideals of humanity,” Nietzsche asserts that mankind loses its instinctive desire to grow and become powerful and, therefore, becomes corrupt (Nietzsche 6). To simplify, corruption can be defined as straying away from innate feelings that encourage growth and yearn for power. Nietzsche uses the concept of transvaluation of values to reiterate his argument that everything that Christianity suggested is good is actually evil and vice versa. Nietzsche sees Christianity as nihilistic, stressing that the values and traditions leave people yearning for redemption that they will never be able to achieve on their own.

    Kraft explores worldview functions in appendix A of “Christianity with Power.” He starts by overviewing worldview functions and universals. The four worldview functions are explaining, evaluating and validating, assigning and prioritizing commitments, interpreting, integrating, and adapting.

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.

  • Moralistic Therapeutic Deism Worldview

    I agree with what you said about Moralistic Therapeutic Deism worldview among teens today is not broad enough because of it’s limited presentative of the world. Everyone in the world is not nice and kind due to evil present in the world. Salvation is the solution to sin in the world and that message is lost when someone think on good is present. The Bible states, “And you children, will be called the prophet of the Most High; for you will go before the Lord and prepare his way, to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins because of the tender mercy of our God” (Luke 1:76-78). God created man in his image, and we were created to have a relationship with him that consist of love, worship and stewardship.

  • Richard Dawkins Use Of Unfair Punishment

    166 Words  | 1 Pages

    As compelling as it is to agree with the persuasive argument Richard Dawkins made about how God was a being who was a cruel, “capriciously malevolent bully…” (Dawkins 1), whom was very judgmental and remorseless in the Old Testaments. You firstly have to put in the matter that even though the punishments given by God may seem merciless, it may have just been a way God had given us to redeem ourselves from the terrible deed that we had committed. We have to remember we are all the children of God and that makes God our Father. Children when given a punishment, sometimes will accept it because they know that is what they deserved, but most of the time they will be guaranteed to be angry and perceive their punishment as unfair or unreasonable.

    God planned for Jesus to take on the burdens of original sin from humanity and carry them with him on his cross. Jesus provides everyone with salvation through his Death and Resurrection. The books of the Acts of the Apostles and many letters in the New Testament usually categorize Jesus in one of three metaphorical explanations: the Suffering Servant, the Paschal Lamb, and the ransom for many. In the book of Isaiah, many passages describe a suffering servant of God to save people from their sins. This connection can easily be made with Jesus.
