The Elements of a Christian Worldview
Christians are people whose thinking and living are directed by the revealed truth of God. Today, R.C. Sproul identifies five essential elements of a Christian worldview.
A Christian life-and-world-view seeks to establish the rules of thinking, the rules of determining how we know what is true. Who in the world is speaking the truth? Who do you trust? Who’s telling the truth? How do you know? That’s a question of epistemology. Ultimately, what is the truth; what is it? A question of is-ness. What is real, ultimately? That’s a metaphysical question. “Who is the truth?” is a theological question. “How does the truth relate of me and define me?” is an anthropological question. And how the truth commands me is an ethical question.
These are the elements of a Christian life-and-world-view. Ignore one of them, and you will have a distorted view of the world and of your own life.
