The Fundamental Belief Of God

Christianity is a Theism worldview that focuses on the belief in one personal and relational God that created all that exists (Hiles, & Smith, 2015). God created man in his likeness to care for all that has been created, to know and worship God, and to love and obey God (Diffey, 2015). Man is to rule and have dominion over the earth, be fruitful and multiply, filling the earth (Genesis 1:28). Christians rely on the support of the Holy Bible to guide them in the word of God. The Bible consist of four basic acts, the Creation, the Fall of Humanity, Redemption, and Restoration (Diffey, 2015). Christians believe that God sent his only Son to die on the cross for their salvation. In this paper will be a focus on the Christian worldview discussing God, humanity, Jesus,

A biblical worldview encourages people to consider the great love that God has for them and all the ways he extends forgiveness and patience to those exercising faith in him. Luke 10:27 encourages Christians to love thy neighbor as thyself. This principle suggests that tenderness, kindness and love should be shown to others in thought, word, and deed just as God shows it to his children. The Christian worldview offers that God has a role for everyone to fill and a will for their lives. Proverbs 3:5­6 encourages Christians to look for God s direction in all things and not to lean unto their own understanding. Through thoughtful prayer and introspection the direction one should take in life that will make full use of his or her talents and gifts will be revealed. It should, of course, be work of an honest nature and morally appropriate for a true Christian (Growing Christian Resources, 2015) (Open Bible,

Christians are appointed to interpret and understand cultures in order to minister and share the gospel, without discrimination based on gender, race, orientation, religion, or nationality. A Biblical worldview remembers that all people and all cultures were made by God and should be treated

Truth, what is truth? This question itself has a thousand answers, no person can ever be sure of what truth is rather, truth can be justified, it can checked for reliability with strong evidences and logic. If the evidence proves to be accurate then it can be established that a certain answer is the truth. However, have we ever tried to think about what intrigues us to seek the truth? To think about a question and set foot firmly on the path of knowledge. Definitely it has! That was the very cause itself which is why this world has witnessed some of the greatest philosophers like Aristotle, Plato and Socrates etc. along with the school of thought. The ability to think and reason is one of the greatest ability humans have, it is what

Across the world there are a surplus of beliefs and systems regarding Gods and religions. There are hundreds and thousands of theologians that claim they have the “truth” about the world and human creation. Although some of these claims may have truth wrapped in them, often times they are covered with fabrication, simply desiring to please the listener and offer the most beneficial reasoning for accepting it. I understand why someone with no religious upbringing or background would not quite know where to start when taking a look at Christianity; however, I’m here to help you understand the amazing aspects of Christianity. These aspects have caused over two billion people around the world to dedicate their lives and ways to follow the center of the religion- God.

But in a Christian’s religion they believe that there is a real and living God that can do everything for them, supply their needs, heal, guide and protect them. Their God can talk, hear and direct them in the right path; if they only accept and believe in him. Their religious opinions would lead them to unethical behavior and lower their ability to appreciate the cruel nature of their acts. We must turn the ethical principles to protect ourselves from narrow-minded and cruel religious practices. (Paul,

At the very core of the Christian religion is the belief that God and humanity have a broken relationship, and God desires to restore the relationship with His creation. Unlike other religions that stress the importance of humans pleasing a god, the Christian religion is about God reaching down to His people, who disobeyed and denied Him. Because the Christian religion is about restoring a relationship, many crucial elements comprise the Christian faith.

The Christian worldview holds that one is to honor God by serving others. The scriptures in the Bible teach Christians to act out of kindness, to give unto others, and to treat others as they would like to be treated. Acts 20:35 “In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive’”

It is an important factor in a Christian’s life to have a biblical worldview that coincides with God’s beliefs. A Christian cannot grow in their relationship with God with just their own understanding and knowledge. They must surround their framework of beliefs and ideas on God’s word and what he calls his children to live their life accordingly. That is why Paul’s letter to the Roman church is such as significant demonstration of the Gospel and the Christian Worldview and we as Christian must be able to defend our worldview and apply it to our lives.

According to the ancient Aztec religion, in the beginning there was a God named Ometechutli who was both male and female. Ometechutli represented opposites and was both good and bad, chaos and order. Being male and female, Ometechutli could procreate asexually. Ometechutli created four Gods; Xipe Totec who was the God of agriculture, fertility and the north. Huizilopochtli, who was the God of war, the sun, and the south. Quetzalcoatl the God of learning, knowledge, and the east. Lastly, there was Tezcatilpoca; who was the God of the west and evil power. Aztec’s great empire was believed to be around the centre of the universe, so these directions were very important to Aztec’s. The four gods began created the universe; producing water and other Gods. Within the waters was born a sea monster called Cipactli who dwelled in the water and had the body of a fish but the head of a crocodile. Although, every other creature the gods created would fall into the sea and be eaten by Cipactli. The Gods destroyed the sea monster and from his head formed 13 heavens; the tail 7 underworlds and its body became the earth. However, in order to complete the world a great source of energy needed to be created, which was the sun. The sun had to be created through a sacrifice of a God. Four attempts were made through sacrifice, however, only the fifth try was successful. On the fifth attempt, Tecuciztecatl offered for himself to be

a) Christians believe many different things about God’s nature; due to the huge spectrum of Christians that there are. However, as a general rule they perceive God as being one of the following four things:

Christians also believe in the fight between God and Satan, the fight between good and evil which exists in the world. Evidence of God is recorded in the Holy Bible, which is made of up of 66 books and letters that testify to Him, describe His character, commandments, and stories of His interaction with humans over history. Because God is the source of all purpose and meaning; the whole point of the Christian faith is to have a relationship with God. Christians affirm their faith in Him by praying to Him, reading the Bible (His Word), going to church to worship Him, living according to His commandments and spreading the gospel. God is the source of morality for Christians and is at the centre of their lives and decisions. “It is about the greatness of God, not the significance of man. God made man small and the universe big to say

The existence of God has been in question for as long as mankind has existed and thought logically. Many questions have plagued the human mind in regards to God, and there have been many arguments drawn with the hopes of proving the existence of a supreme being whom we know as God. The “God” question has been presented to every individual at some point in their lives. It is a topic that will bring forth never-ending questions and an equal amount of attempted answers. Many philosophers have formulated different rationales when examining the topic of God, some of which include how the word itself should be defined, what his role is in human existence, whether or not he loves us, and ultimately, if he even exists at all. Mankind cannot

They view God as being sustainer and the creator of the world of both things visible and non-visible. Unlike the other two religions, anthropomorphism is used throughout Christianity. Christians believe that God has human-like characteristics or different human personality traits; these traits allow God to build stronger relationships with his followers. Applying those traits to God allows people to gain a better understanding of some of things that is partially hard to understand fully. Christianity also uses the trinity concept, which is referring to god in three persons, calling him the Father, the Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Christians believe that Jesus Christ was the human form of God, and that people should treat and view Jesus Christ like they treat God the almighty and powerful. The men of God, who were inspired by the Holy Spirit, wrote the bible. The Holy Bible is the guide that Christians use to live and follow there life by day-by-day. Everyone is sinful in the Christian teachings, meaning that you is born with sin, but can be forgiven for as long as you is willing to accept God and his
