Christian Worldview

America is now suffering from a Great Recession which was initiated by atheistic US bankers. As the Telegraph reports, Dr John Sentamu, the Archbishop of York, attacked exploitative money lenders who pursued ruthless gain and urged banks not to enrich themselves at their poor neighbours depreciate. Their worldview is dominated by money. They believe in the survival of the fittest, and they think that they can get away with anything. Their philosophy is to conquer or be conquered, to exploit anyone and everyone and moral philosophy are only for the weak.But I look at the world through the lens of a Christian, and I believe that my faith in god, my belief in absolute truth and my definition of morality based on Gods wordthe Holy Biblewill make my spiritedness undefeated and happy. For greedy American bankers, God does not exist, but for me, He lives in my heart. They say that God is a figment of my imagination, and there is no proof that God exists. As Psalms 531 points out, The fool says in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, and their ways are vile ( brisk International Version).But for me, the suffering that they aim now brought to themselves is proof that there is someone out there more powerful than anyone. As Psalm 191 asserts, the heavens declare the triumph of God the skies proclaim the work of his hands. The consequences that they will face under President Obama will be evidence that justice under God will prevail. As Isaiah 515 says, My mercy and justice are coming soon. My salvation is on the way. My strong arm will bring justice to the nations. All nonadjacent lands will look to me and wait in hope for my powerful arm (New Living Translation).And the happiness and contentment that I will enjoy throughout my life by trusting God is a confirmation of His reality and love for those who trust Him. Indeed, All you who fear the LORD, trust the LORD He is your helper and your shield. bit greedy bankers may also believe in the relativit y of truth, I consider it to be absolute. These people think that truth depends on perspective, just as beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. They claim that what is evil for me is good for them.They think that the whole idea of good and evil is subjective, and that it is for the greater good that they do all told these evils. But I believe that good and evil are absolute. They have done evil, and that is the absolute truth, whether they like it or not. People all over the world, the bulk of mankind, agree with me. The world is one in condemning them as evil. While these bankers define redress and wrong based on their own rational thinking, I believe that only God, through his word, the Bible, can define morality.People who claim to think logically ask questions such as If you and your family were thrown overboard a sink ship, and you could ransom only one person, either your mother or your husband who both cant swim, who would you choose? But in a real-life slip involving ones family, real people dont depend on logic like robots. Indeed, I would pray to God and attempt to save them both. I have faith that God will save us all, and faith is more powerful than logic.In the end, my Christian worldview, defined by my trust in Gods existence, my refusal to believe in the relativity of truth, and my faith in Gods Word as the ultimate resource for defining right and wrong, is my path to salvation. How I wish that everyone else can also see through my lenses. References Holy Bible New International Version. (1978). Grand Rapids Zondervan. Holy Bible New Living Translation. (2007).
