Personal Worldview
Every day, when we watch the news or read a newspaper article, countless stories of violence, crime, wars, and disasters confront us. Historically, literacy is at an all-time high, yet education does not appear to encourage goodness in the world. Because of this, my belief is that it is evident that the greatest contribution a person can make to the world is living their life as Jesus did. There are several reasons for this. For example, when an individual models the behavior of Jesus Christ, it promotes peace on earth, success in life, and a positive impact on humanity. Believers, as well as many non-believers, hold Jesus Christ in high regard and appreciate and value the principles by which He lived His life. Even those who are not Christian or who do not believe Christ was the Messiah can see how the teachings He provided can encourage people to love one another and work together to make the world a better place. Those are all good things.
In spite of whether Christ truly existed or whether His presence was actually divine, it is clear that the nature of Christ in the New Testament is the premier example of moral living. This can be applied to everyday life, and should be applied to everyday life, in an effort to ensure that people learn to live their lives properly and with value to themselves and others. There are many things a person can do in order...
Jesus did not organize any armies or promote violence in the name of God, nor did He ask any of His disciples to do so for him. Many people believe that His teachings, if observed and followed, would make this world a better place and lower the level of fighting and the number of wars that are seen around the globe. One can see the glory of God in the loving, compassionate attitude of Jesus and his teachings.
This is especially true in the statement: "Blessed are the Peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God" (Matthew 5:19). It is no coincidence that Christians, during the first three centuries after Jesus, were almost exclusively pacifist. Maximilian, beheaded as a conscientious objector for refusing to join the army, exemplified this by asserting, "I am a Christian and cannot fight." When one examines the pacifism of Jesus' deeds, it can be indicated that those Christians who have killed in God's name did not live up to the teachings of Jesus. It was not that Jesus was never angry or thought that people did something wrong, but only that He did not believe being violent toward those people was the answer. Violence begets more violence, and fails to provide any measure of peace for any of the people involved in the skirmish.
Jesus did not approve of violence nor did He desire it, vehemently speaking against the use of force by saying: "You have faith; I have deeds. Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds" (James 2:18). The gospel not only addresses the…
Personal Worldview The author of this report is to answer the seven worldview questions as offered by James Sire from the text. These questions include queries about prime reality, the nature of the world around us, what a human being is, what happens to a person when they die, how it is possible to know anything at all, how someone knows right from wrong and what the meaning of human history

Modern worldview is similar to scientific worldview because modern worldview believes in scientific proof in understanding any event.

Personal Worldview The prime reality is that it is primarily an illusion. God's kingdom is everywhere. God's kingdom is on earth as it is in heaven. As it is above so below and within as without. God is nothing more than an anthropomorphic response to that which is unknowable. That which can be deciphered is illusion, because it is knowable. God is unknowable and the prime reality is that we are
It outlines those programs and benefits to be offered on campuses to help service international students more effectively. Japanese students are here identified. Since they speak English as second language, they have more stress, requiring more time to read their textbooks, receiving the abuse from students that are enrolled with them in classes or who are being taught by them when they serve as graduate assistants. This causes miscommunication
worldview is a "set of presuppositions (assumptions which may be true, partially true or entirely false)," ("Four Major Worldviews," n.d.). The presuppositions that form our personal worldview have a strong bearing on our ongoing attitudes, behaviors, goals, and expectations. Our worldview might change throughout the course of our lives, due to exposure to new ideas, new people, or new ways of looking at the world. Naturally, religious upbringing and
Introduction My personal worldview is multidimensional, meaning that while I do believe in God, i.e., a higher power, I do not formally belong to an organized religion. I also am biocentric in that I believe all living things have an inherent value. For that reason, I believe that as a health care provider I have a duty to support, sustain and respect life. The cultural elements that most influence my personal
