Title: From a worldly point of view
A
person’s world view originates out of his own understanding of the meaning and
purpose of life in relation to God (if he believes in one), to nature, and with
other human beings. Mainly he sees the
world and internalizes and weighs his actions through the lens of his personal
religious/spiritual convictions, with the pursuit of happiness as the primary
goal in life.
But
to the Christian the world is regarded, and everything in it, and the whole
creation, through the Scriptures, and never of his own understanding, as
existing for the pleasure of God under His sovereign will and
determination.
For
this reason a Christian rightly esteems the Lord Jesus as he is: the Creator, the only begotten Son of God,
the only Savior, the Messiah, the God who is with us.
