A worldview is your philosophy of life and the world. It is composed of the foundational beliefs you hold, that shape how you see everything else. We will take a brief look at the basics of a Christian worldview.
Metaphysics
-What is ultimate reality?
-(Genesis 1:1)"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." (ESV)
-Here we see the Creator/creature distinction. God is the Creator and everything else is creation. God is God and you are not.
Epistemology
-How do you know what you know?
-(Proverbs 1:7)"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction." (ESV)
-True knowledge depends on God who knows all things and controls all things. We must think God's thoughts after him.
Ethics
-How should we live?
-(Exodus 20:1-17) The Ten Commandments
-(Matthew 5-7) The Sermon On The Mount
-Ethics and morality are rooted in the law and character of God.
