Walking Out a Biblical Worldview

How To Walk Out A Biblical Worldview

Review: Everyone Has a Worldview Your WORLDVIEW is simply the LENS YOU SEE LIFE THROUGH.

Foundational Scripture for this series, 

Proverbs 14:12(NLT) 12 There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death.

Barna Report: In his report from the American Worldview Inventory 2023, Barna identifies the “seven cornerstones of the biblical worldview.” They are:

An orthodox, biblical understanding of God.

All human beings are sinful by nature; every choice we make has moral considerations and consequences.

Knowing Jesus Christ is the only means to salvation, through our confession of sin and reliance on His forgiveness.

The entire Bible is true, reliable, and relevant, making it the best moral guide for every person, in all situations.

Absolute moral truth exists—and those truths are defined by God, described in the Bible, and are unchanging across time and cultures.

The ultimate purpose of human life is to know, love, and serve God with all your heart, mind, strength, and soul.

Success on earth is best understood as consistent obedience to God—in thoughts, words, and actions

The report goes on to say:

35% of Americans believe Jesus is the only way for salvation.

46% accept the Bible as true and reliable.

25% believe in absolute truth rooted in the Bible.

23% define success as obedience to God.

Our worldview drives our beliefs and our behavior.

We have seen research lately that says that a person’s worldview is established by the age of 13.

And that by the age of 30 most people go back to that early world view. 

So it is imperative that we teach our kids a Biblical worldview.

They must believe they are created by God and the Word of God is absolute truth.

Galatians 3 (NLT) 

The Law and Faith in Christ

1 Oh, foolish Galatians! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ’s death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross. 

2 Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the Holy Spirit by obeying the law of Moses? Of course not! You received the Spirit because you believed the message you heard about Christ. 

3 How foolish can you be? After starting your new lives in the Spirit, why are you now trying to become perfect by your own human effort? 4 Have you experienced so much for nothing? Surely it was not in vain, was it?

5 I ask you again, does God give you the Holy Spirit and work miracles among you because you obey the law? Of course not! It is because you believe the message you heard about Christ.

6 In the same way, “Abraham believed God, and God counted him as righteous because of his faith.”7 The real children of Abraham, then, are those who put their faith in God.

10 But those who depend on the law to make them right with God are under his curse, for the Scriptures say, “Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the commands that are written in God’s Book of the Law.” 11 So it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law. For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”

The gospel is the most radical message that has ever confronted humanity 

Because it deals with our biggest issues - pride and selfishness.

The only answer to self is the cross. 

I have to let self die and the Christ nature move in.

Matthew 16:24-25 (NIV) 24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.

#1 The cross is the place where I die.

#2 It’s not what I want, it’s what God wants.

#3 It’s not what I think, it’s what God says in His Word.

#4 It’s not what I feel, it’s how the Holy Spirit leads me.
