A model apple on the table is viewed by several people. A botanist looking at an apple classifies it. An artist sees the existence of life and paints it. A trader sees an asset and inventory. A child sees lunch and eats it. How we see the situation is influenced by how we view the world as a whole. Everyone's worldview is different. Let's explore the relationship between Christianity and people's worldview below
Worldview is the basic cognitive orientation of an individual or society that includes all knowledge and views of individuals or society. The worldview may include natural philosophy; fundamental, existential, and normative postulates; or themes, values, feelings, and morals.
The worldview represents an overview of the world in our consciousness. Including the outside world, people, and the relationship between people and that world. It is the guideline for all our attitudes and behaviors towards the outside world.
The Christian worldview is a holistic concept of the world from the Christian point of view. An individual's worldview is his or her "big picture". A harmony of all his or her beliefs about the world. That is his true understanding. One's worldview is the basis for daily decision-making and is therefore extremely important.
The Christian worldview answers three biblical questions:
1) We are God's creatures, created to rule the world and have fellowship with Him (Genesis 1:27-28; 2:15).
2) We sin against God and incur a worldwide curse (Genesis 3).
3) It was God who redeemed the world through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ (Genesis 3:15; Luke 19:10), and will one day restore creation back to life. return to its former perfect state (Is 65:17-25).
A Christian worldview leads us to believe in absolute morality, miracles, human dignity, and the possibility of salvation.
It is important to remember that a worldview is inclusive. It greatly affects all areas of life, from money to morality, from politics to art. True Christianity gathers ideas more than for church use. Christianity taught in the Bible is itself a worldview. The Bible never distinguishes between a "religious" and "secular" life. The Christian life is the life of God alone. Jesus declared Himself to be “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6) and in that way, He became our worldview.
