Do you agree that the biblical references cited illustrate some elements of each worldview being seen in Scripture? Explain
-
I do agree that the examples of scripture listed here support a biblical worldview that God’s truth has been twisted into other worldviews.
-
I do agree with the biblical references cited. They illustrate elements of each of the worldviews that are seen in the scripture. However, they have taken a part of God’s scripture and opted to make that single scripture their whole belief. It’s like when critics pull out a particular scripture but do not read it in its context to understand the true meaning.

Yes it all made me think of how in Proverbs 21:2 we learn that every man thinks his way is right in his own eyes.
-
Yes, absolutely! The worldview and scripture parallel that most struck me was Existentialism and King Solomon’s claims in Ecclesiastes 1. Solomon states, “Meaningless! Meaningless! says the Teacher. Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.” (Ecc. 1:2). Solomon comes to a point in life where he views all of labors, achievements, dreams, and life itself as meaningless.
Existentialism has a similar view. This life is meaningless, and we are required to create meaning for our lives, which, in light of eternity, is impossible.

Yes, I agree that every worldview can be compared to some degree with scripture. Applicable scripture references can be found for them all. This is just further evidence that we were created by a single God who loves us and is involved in all aspects of our lives and world. No matter how man may try to deny it, it is undeniable! We are made in the image of God whether we choose to accept it or not. God said it and that settles it. We don’t have to agree for it to still be the truth.
