There are people who live in a secular world, worlds that is non-religious, but who identify, in their hearts, with Christianity. They are a breed of people who are challenging the Church to become ecumenical in its thinking and if the Church will not get out into the community to help others this group will be found doing the work of the ‘Church’. Pastoral Carers and/or Ministers have challenging roles that must include these Christians who will most likely never come into their Churches. The inclusion of these people will exemplify the most powerful form of love that could ever exist, a love that is unconditional and a love that does not come with wrong motives. The traditions of man must give way to this new generation of worshippers, worshippers who are not frequenting the Church but are in the communities helping, reading ‘spiritual’ books to help them learn about being great people, and having a relationship with God.
These range from simple religious followings such as each individual needs to go into the community and attempt to spread the word of their teachings at least three days a week, men are not allowed facial hair, all the way to how to lead their lives and whom they can and cannot speak to. Christians have 10 main commandments (rules) that all sects or denominations follow. None of these prohibit any such thing like which people they can or cannot speak to, but instead the Christian religion encourages followers to speak to others no matter who they are or what their background is. Christianity encourages its followers to also go into the community and spread the word of God, but does not put a number of days a week you must do so in order to be a part of their faith or be
Shane lives in poverty, chooses to spend his days with the poor, and ultimately serves his enemies. Whether Shane preaches that the Church has become apathetic and over politicized, he serves a purpose to change the way Christians think about their religion. Shane cannot be called a sideline spectator either, he walks the talk, Claiborne preaches in the city of Chicago, Philadelphia, in conventions, and in Iraq, risking his life. He absolutely has moral authority and credibility in his ideas and opinions. While I do not completely agree with his whole book, Shane Claiborne speaks some truths on many ugly topics of our society.
I think it was he who God chose to become someone who did great things when he put his mind to it. R.G. LeTourneau was a person who like us all would misbehave and do things that would upset his parents. He was a person some would say was inquisitive, energetic, determined, ambitious and determined. He went to church every Sunday and even though he heard the words the preacher was saying he did not learn a thing, which made his parents worry and they prayed for him often that he would soon find his way to the Lord.
“God has given the people His Word, and He expects us to obey it, with our leaders first practicing and setting examples for others. But after a period of time, the Christian leaders and the people of God have divided themselves and are gradually declining and filtering in many new doctrines/religions while not realizing that many lives are being destroyed in the process. Our Lord has a covenant, and it still applies to us today through Jesus Christ. The kingdom of Judah did turn to idols, disobeyed the Lord, and continuously invited His chastening. And today, instead of being a blessing to all of the earth, we again are moving down the same pattern, but in a most modern way.
The writer explains how he wanted to see, speak, and feel Jesus come to him, but he never got that feeling from Jesus. Langston Hughes goes on to tell the reader how all the children had gone up to the altar and were saved except for one boy and himself. The older folks continued to pray over the boys. Hughes stated that the boy Westley whispered, “God Damn! I'm tired o' sitting here.

A worldview is the way you look at the world, your perception of how the world works, why things happen the way they do and what is your purpose in the world. This poses the question; is there a single Christian worldview that all Christians share in common, or are there several Christian worldviews? A worldwide view includes beliefs about life, the existence o f God and our purpose in life. To answer these complicated questions you should know how to write a Christian worldview paper. To begin with, consider that there could be several Christian worldviews at any time, but there are very few theological matters that are universal.
The contemporary churches promote equality and support their followers, yet during the movement the churches “remained silent” or were “outright opponents” (5). The tradition of growing up in the church teaches its followers the beliefs of the church, which are now to treat everyone with equality and to love everyone. People who go to church are influenced by the traditions of the church, so they would disagree and be shocked by the way the church dealt with the Civil Rights
writes, "The church's singular failure in recent decades has been the failure to see Christianity as a life system, or worldview, that III governs every area of existence.” He goes on to say that “our failure to see Christianity as a comprehensive framework of truth has crippled our efforts to have a redemptive effect on the surrounding culture. At its most fundamental level, the culture war is a clash of belief systems…Only when we see this can we effectively evangelize a post-Christian culture, bringing God's righteousness to bear in the world around us.” As a nation, we no longer accept the truths that our predecessors did. Instead, what we have today is moral relativism, and there is no right or wrong, no good or evil. Moral relativism teaches that we are all products of the evolutionary process, there is no God and no plan or purpose for our lives, and we all have our own truth. It teaches that we are all basically
