Dear Doug 1

Dear Doug I am glad to hear that you be settled in and that e trulything is well. It is also a relief to hear that you and your roomy seem to be getting along and I hope that your knowledge with Nathan lead grow. I shed archetype virtually your questions and decided on some ways to wait on you beg off, and help Nathan interpret and understand rescuerianity. In my life I have experienced the same situation you mentioned about Christian nomenclature and what it agent to be a Christian.I grew up in a Christian home under Christian principles and it had not returnred to me wherefore do I believe in Christianity? Of course this did not occur to me until I was older and had thought about it for some time. I thought about this solid ground and how it could have been created not by mere run into but by something or someone cold more searching than mere humans, not by kick downstairs. This universe and everything in it was created with superior lore and for a purpose.I loo ked into Christianity and saw how god created the earth a being far above humans because we were do by him a perfect goodish all knowing being who created us in his likeness to do a distinct purpose in this humanness, rather than leaving it up to mere chance. I knew there had to be a primer for this world and a good one I looked farther into Christianity and the story of how God created the earth called the credo. I am sure you have heard of the Gospel and read the story, but you must take into account many another(prenominal) things before you explain it to a non-Christian.Many non-Christians be not familiar with Christian terminology because they have not looked into Christianity and read the Bible to understand our belief, and we as Christs followers must explain the Gospel in a simplified way for wad who are not familiar with accredited Christian terminology so they can understand the concept and induce more familiar with the terminology. One way you can simplify th e importation of these words is to define them and simplify them in a way that you all the way present the meaning of that word.An example would be instead of saying we are wrongful people, you could say we are disobedient or you could define sin as bad behavior or actions that you commit. Use words that people use on regular bases to define a certain word, which will give them a better understanding since they already understand the adapt meaning of that word to better understand any Christian terminology. You whitethorn not have known, but you have already or at least started to formulate and create your own world find. A worldview is exactly what it sounds like, its the way we interpret, understand, and our opinion about the world and how we view it.A worldview is how you see the world and your opinion or idea of reality. Norman Geisler and William Watkins give a very well thought out worldview explanation and an example that may help you understand, It is an interpretive fra mework through which or by which one makes star of the data of life and the world. A worldview is like a rival of provide and the only way to view the world and everything in it, is through the pair of glasses, and like the prescription of glasses, everyones worldview is different. Now that I have prone you an understanding of a worldview I will do my best to explain to you what a Christian worldview is.A Christian worldview would basically be a Christian influence on how you shape your worldview. A Christian worldview would be base on Christian principles that youve read and learned about in your life. How you view the world and reality would be ground on Christian ethical motive and ethics rather than a different world view based on societys standards. A Christian worldview is typically a brighter more positive outlook on life rather than a worldview not based on Christianity it gives you more of a purpose and reason for the questions what? , why? , and how? Your last quest ion I also struggled with and still do from time to time.We all know that we have accepted Christ into our patrol wagon but the greater reason is why. I have asked this question to myself many times and sometimes feel over whelmed, but there is a reason. Take a look around this world it is full of validation and purpose. The intelligence that was required to form this world was more than mere chance but above normal human intelligence. God a magic being who is perfect created this earth for a purpose and with intelligent design. You yourself were made for a purpose and you yourself are far more complex to be created out of mere chance.Also the sacrifice that God made for us to have another chance even though we wronged him, beyond human means of forgiveness, it amazes me how someone could love us so much still scatty to obtain a relationship with us. Even when we show disobedience and repetitively wrong God he will still forgive us if we truly and honestly ask for forgiveness fr om him. He gave us giving will to make our own decisions to disobey him or to love him. I hope that this letter has assisted you in understanding your questions and I would be glad to attempt and answer more, so keep thinking and paternity I hope everything with your roommate goes well, Daniel
