This past weekend at Northview we were talking about having a Biblical Worldview and what that means. I was shocked and saddened to hear that only 9% of born again Christians say they have a true Biblical Worldview. This statistic comes from The Barna Group a leading research organization.
This is what they used to define what a Biblical Worldview means:
-
Absolute moral truths exist.
-
This truth is defined by the Bible.
-
Jesus Christ lived a sinless life.
-
God is an all-powerful and an all-knowing Creator of the universe and He still rules it today.
-
Salvation is a gift from God and cannot be earned.
-
Satan is not just a symbol of evil is a a real living entity.
-
A Christian has a responsibility to share their faith in Christ with other people.
-
The Bible is accurate in all of its teachings.
Where do you stand on this?
