My Worldview: Answers to the Questions of Origin, Purpose ,and Destiny

A worldview is a personal insight about the humans and meaning of life. We any see ourselves through a particular set of beliefs, attitudes, and values. Each persons worldview develops overtime as he or she experiences new events and interacts with the world that surrounds them. A worldview provides the answers to ones origin, purpose, and destiny. Religion has a powerful influence on ones worldview. For the Christian, the filter for which wholly in situate wateration is processed is shaped by the truths found in beau ideal. The truth of God cannot be ignored as God has revealed himself in many ways. The Scripture is one way that God reveals himself to humankind. The countersign is Gods written revelation to humankind. There is a central theme that flows from the beginning to the end of the Bible. That theme is one of redemption and is key to my worldview.The first-year chapter of the Bible tells us, In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 11 New Inter national Version). Let us start here, in the beginning, as we start to form a worldview based on Biblical facts. The earth did not simply appear out of nothing. God is the Creator of the universe and all that exists in the universe including humankind. Because God is the creator, he is self-existent and is therefore greater than anything that was created. God has a Creator-creature birth with humankind. Through instauration God revealed his divine nature to humankind. He is infallible, truthful, just, holy, omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotent. The will of God speaks to the sovereign authority God has over creation. God is in control of everything that happens. God formed a covenant with creation in which all creation was promised eternal life in exchange for obedien... ...s from our sins and to save us from going to hell. Because God also gave us free will, we hit to make the decision to hap eternity in heaven and we need to make that decision before it is too late. My worldview has been a long and personal journey. I buzz off not endlessly lived with the Spirit in my heart. I have always believed in God but have not always had a absolute relationship with God. A walk through the Word of God has shown me that God has always had a plan and has always taken the first steps in having a relationship with me. I see through my worldview that the Bible lays out Gods plan for my redemption. Through Gods redemption I now have a worldview that supplies the answers to the questions of origin, purpose ,and destiny.Works CitedZondervan NIV Study Bible. Fully rev. ed. Kenneth L.
