The World Being A Christian

Christianity is one of the most influential religions on both ancient and modern Western society, with the religion based on the teachings of the prophet Jesus Christ who lived approximately between the years of 5 BC and 33 AD. It is claimed that Christ was the son of God whose spirit was embodied and sent to Earth as a human being to bring peace and prosperity to the less fortunate, and absolve the world of its sin. Jesus preached a doctrine of a supreme monotheistic god who ruled over the universe, as well as ethics and morals especially centred on the concept of faith and forgiveness. If one was to live their life in accordance to the Will of God and the teachings of Christ found in the written word of the Holy Bible, one would be absolved of their sin and ascend to the spiritual realm of God, known as Heaven, after their physical death.

Nancy Pearcey, American evangelical author, said, “Having a Christian Worldview means being utterly convinced that biblical principles are not only true but also work better in the grit and grime of the real world.” Everyone has a world view whether they are religious or not. A standard Worldview is how people see the world and how humans pertain to it. A Worldview is not only a way people view the world but it can change the world through cultures, countries, and civilizations similarly to how they shape individuals. A Christian Worldview is a view from a religious standpoint and seeing that the world is a sinful place and it is important to try and change that through Gods help. There are children in this world with environments that can damage their belief in Jesus. As having a Christian Worldview, myself I see this and know that there must be something done about it.

Every person on earth has a mental reality, which we call worldview. It is what a person finds in his/her world and it could be true or not. In other words’ it is putting together of all the things we believe whether they are or not. It could be through education, observation, experience or just because those we trust also believe. Every decision we make is based on the worldview we have developed.

Yet; now, some argue the institution, whether without walls, storefront, or mega church, has become ambiguous in its purpose. Various people question the relevancy of the church and its current contributions to a contemporary community where poverty remains high, homelessness continues to grow, ignorance persists, and educational pursuits are problematic. Some even suggest ill-moral behavior is rampant. While others, even suggest the church only serves as a tool to put money in a few manipulative peoples' pockets.

This course has impacted me tremendously. Many pre-conceived notions of missions and methodology of fulfilling the Great commission have changed. The Great Commission, found in Matthew 28:16-20 contain Jesus’ final words to His disciples. He told them, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Before taking this course, I never understood the concept of the “nations” being people groups. I always thought of them as geo-political divisions. I can actually perceive many different people groups in my neighborhood, and now understand that even though they live in America, they do not relate the same way as other Americans. This is due to their cultural and ethnical background among other

The great beyond is critical to the Christian perspective. As indicated by Romans 2:7 "To them who by persistent continuation in well doing look for brilliance and respect and interminability, endless life" (Romans 2:7, KJV). Christian Worldview varies from different religions with our solid faith in endless life where there are religions like Atheists who don't have confidence in unceasing life. Christians is likewise the main religion to have confidence in salvation. Tolerating God as our deliverer and needing to be close with him is another key. The expectation of the hereafter for Christians varies from numerous perspectives, for example, secularism and polytheism. Skeptics don't have confidence in any the great beyond, and this is a touch

The situation comedy that highlights family values and functions for this Family Television Review is the show called The Parkers. The name of the family is The Parkers which is a family with a single mother and a daughter both attending college. Observations of the family lead me to the conclusion that their worldview is between a naturalism and secular worldview.

The church now a day has changed drastically from how churches functioned then. I would say there has been a big change in speech. The church has seemed to focus mainly on personal problems such as Depression, Mental Illnesses, and addiction. Which Is still very important to our current world. But some social issues it has strayed away from that are serious problems. Such as gender orientation and identity. This is a complex issue but even if Christianity disagrees it must be shown more love and caring too. Because it seems that most people in this category has strayed from the church

Having a Christian worldview should not limit me from having a normal conversation or even engage with someone who differs from my beliefs. The very idea irritates me for I have encountered closed-minded people who will only speak and interact with who ever relates to their idealism, perhaps, a close-minded one. Further, when it comes to the future and type of work I would like to do, I would want for God to open doors in places where there is people that do not have a relationship with Him, no matter how bad it is. Perhaps, consequently my relationship and testimony would ignite a desire to have a relationship with God.

Define my worldview. First I will explain what is a worldview. A worldview according to www.summit.org is known as a framework from which we view reality and make sense of life and the world. Worldview is basic on ideology, philosophy, theology, movement, or religion that provides an overarching approach to understanding God, the world and man’s relations to God and the world.

Due to the "highly subjective nature of most scientific theorizing... [we should] let the Bible speak for itself and modify our scientific view of origins accordingly." (as cited in Downey, D., & Porter, S., 2009).

A Christian worldview is different for many believers, but the one aspect that ties it together and makes it unified, is the belief in one God and his son Jesus as a Savior. This is the foundation of Christianity. It is centered on the belief that God is an autonomous God, who loves people enough to restore them through salvation and redemption instead of vengeance. Following the belief of Christianity affects interactions with other denominations, non-believers, and cultures. Christianity provides courage, knowledge, and understanding to face the struggles of life.

Some of the biggest questions can be tied together. Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? Does God exist? Numerous amounts of people ask these questions, every day, every second. Though it can be a bit hard to find the answers, especially when people have different opinions on topics. But there is one place in where people can take comfort and read when they have the huge questions. These all can be answered by reading the Bible. My worldview has also been altered by this course. Although it is not completely the same as what I have been taught, it has changed some.

Since the religion of Christianity was first practiced, it has been spread to the far reaches of the world. The spread of the religion has led to some major political, social, and economic consequences. Christianity started as a small sect of Judaism and has become the most practiced religion in the world. Aided by cultural diffusion, missionaries, and war, the church expanded and more. There have been many causes for the spread of Christianity, and it has led to numerous effects. Many of these causes and effects happened thousands of years ago. Although it has been a long time, they still greatly impact the world today.

In studying the Christian world view, there are people who, do not share this view, yet contribute such a great amount to human kind that recognition is deserved. Mahatma Gandhi is one such person. Gandhi’s development and utilization of Satyagraha; (“which literally means holding firm to reality or truth firmness”) non-violent form of protesting, impacted Indians, the world and inspired other civil rights leaders. (Richards, 1995). Gandhi desired improved treatment of Indians who worked and lived in South Africa. He also desired that India seceded from the rule of Great Brittan. Who Gandhi was is demonstrated in his struggle for social issues, the simplistic lifestyle (shunning money and career), and his devotion to his Hindu.
