Why
is your Worldview Important? |
We believe that the infinite personal God of the
Bible is ultimate reality, not mere matter or energy
shaped by chance. We believe that men and women were
designed and created by this personal God in His image as
personal beings with a capacity for reason, emotion, and
volition ... and as such human life has sanctity and
value. Consequently, we are ethically and
morally accountable for our choices and actions, which
have value, significance, meaning, and purpose in a
universe which is not merely impersonal. We further
believe that in a purely impersonal material universe
there is no logical basis for morality, ethics, objective
knowledge, significance, purpose, or human aspirations.

Can
we Know if our Worldview is true? |
"The Christian worldview is both
intellectually credible and existentially
satisfying"
- Tim Keller
|
|
"There are philosophical, archaeological,
historical, and evidential tests for truth. Worldviews
should be tested in the same way that we test theories as
to whether the earth is round or flat. Science operates
on the assumption that there is objective truth. So
should philosophy and religion. The only reason to
believe the Christian worldview is that it is objectively
true. It is unique in that it stands up to honest
intellectual and existential scrutiny in a way that no
other worldview does"
- Dave Seivright
