Biblical worldview



You may live in a different city, even continent than I do. We can agree we both live in a crazy, selfish, Godless world.  Knowing the Word of God and looking at this world in light of eternity, we are aware those attitudes and behaviors are not surprising.

As believers in Christ, as disciples empowered with His power and love, we are to live in the culture with a Biblical worldview.  You can know who you are, based on God's Word and principles.  You and I then, receive our direction from the Bible. Those with a secular worldview will be rolling their eyes about now. Yet we can stand on the truth with confidence and like Daniel of the Old Testament, we remain faithful to God, realizing true peace and righteousness. (promoted or Lions den).

Religious habit has nothing to do with it.  There has to be that love relationship. That we spend time conversing with God, while listening to His direction from His Word. This culture will attempt identity theft and indoctrinate you with their ideas. We read in Daniel, that he had "purposed in His heart" not to defile himself with the culture of the Babylonian empire.

This week, believer look into the word of God,  let it define who you are and what you have; in Christ! and it will direct us as we walk this society as Christian ambassadors,  in this foreign land. We can live with Biblical conviction based on Biblical principles.

Whether we leave for work, the family reunion, or the University, we can return home with our Biblical worldview intact.

At your first opportunity read the Letter to the Ephesians, written by Paul.
