Above all other areas of dogma within Christianity, monotheism tops the list. Monotheism is the belief in one God who rules over all. This one God is the creator, and stabilizer of the universe we reside in. Christianity also believes in the Bible being the only set of scripture inspired by the word of God; Virgin Birth; martyrdom; the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ; the second coming of Christ; the creation of the world through the one true God; life after death; Hell; Paradise after death; and the Holy Trinity. Above all of these dogmas, the faith in a one creator God who rules the universe is the most important.
The oneness of God, the prophethood of Muhammad, and the concept of life postmortem are the rudimental articles of its faith. They are predicated on reason and sound logic. All of the teachings of Islam flow from those basic beliefs and are simple and straightforward. There is no hierarchy of priests, no farfetched abstractions, no perplexed rites or rituals. Muslims believe that god is one while most Christians believe that God is three persons in one and most Jews believe that Aliazer is the son of god.
This clearly states that the sins of one’s society affects every member of the society even though it may affect them in different ways. The American culture is seemed to be either naturalists or supernaturalistic about our worldview opinions of God. Naturalist individuals believe that there is no such thing as God; they believe that science should take full credit for everything that has happened in the world and for our beautiful universe. They believe the man is the creator of all things good and bad in our world. They also believe that there is no force greater than man and the man is the creator of the world.
. . But the mystic (arif) knows that this 'God' of ours is simply an 'angel' or a particular symbol of the divine, which must never be confused with the Hidden Reality itself. Consequently he sees all the different religions as valid theophanies. Where the God of the more dogmatic religions divides humanity into warring camps, the God of the mystics is a unifying force."
To them, if there is a good side to the world and a bad side to the world, then there must be two gods to keep track of it all. Gnostic believers even present “evidence” defending their position through information found in the secret books of the gnostic gospels (29). Though this argument seems sound, orthodox Christianity is the more popular belief on this subject because the Gnostics were considered ignorantly dualistic; God clearly sent his word through the Bible stating that he is the one and only God that ever was and ever will
Romans 1:20 says “that the creation has been seen and understood because of God’s invisible qualities, divine nature and His eternal power so that men may not have an excuse.” It, therefore, follows that God is seen through His creation. He has made everything showing mercy to those who spit on His face that He is the same God that created everything by the power of His word. People who have seen His glory through His creation have no excuse before Him for they have seen and experienced yet rejected Him (Frank, 2013). Our Human Identity According to Paul, Christians should find their human identity in knowing Jesus and their true nature. Genesis 1:27 says “that we are made in God’s image” and according to Romans 7:25, “are joined to the father in spiritual union through Jesus Christ.”In Him, we find who we are because of the fellowship we have with Him.
Biblical Worldview Antonio Robinson Liberty University Biblical Worldview A worldview is a scheme of principles that direct a person’s life and any major decision that they make. The Book of Romans was written by the Apostle Paul, which was the most influential Christian of all the ages except for the Lord, Jesus Christ. This book gives an account of how Christians should believe and act as the way they do. The letter to the Romans was his work of art that summarized numerous essential Christian beliefs. Paul states, “I must tell the good news to everyone” (Romans 1:13-15).Through the works of Paul, one can gather insights into his approaches on the natural world, human identity, human relationship, culture, and an understanding of one’s
Almost as if he is the God dictates “The great gods proclaimed me and I am the guardian governor, whose scepter is righteous and whose beneficent protection is spread over my city…” One can say that Hammurabi is an extremely religious man who used religion to rule his kingdom. Also as we know, religion was the one and only factor which led the society during that period of time, so plainly claiming to be the god (or king of righteousness) affects people’s certainties. “My words are precious, my wisdom is unrivaled. By the command of Shamash… may I take righteousness to shine forth on the land…” The words are somewhat fearful to the point where it is forceful. By putting religion into what should be political, Hammurabi has made it easier for him to rule over a state with such a strong base of religious
