Analysis Of A Biblical Worldview

A woman gets into her car to drive to her friend’s house. The sun is bright, so she puts on her sunglasses. The tint of her sun glasses changes the way she sees the scenery outside of her car and actually helps her to see where she is going. In the same way, a biblical worldview helps a person to clearly see God’s view and align with it.

Even though He knows that people can be wicked, He still loves them no matter what. God views His relationships with people as the most important relationships in the world. Human identity is based on faith in Jesus and God’s acceptance of them. From the very beginning, God had a plan to restore the relationship between Himself and His children. There are many ways to apply Romans 1-8 in modern-day settings. People find that the very foundations of biblical worldview include the natural world, human identity, relationships, and culture. Christians are called to look at the world through the eyes of faith which leads to God, just as a woman looks through her sunglasses to find her way to her
