Which distinctive of a biblical worldview would be least compelling to your non-Christian friends? How might you answer objections on this matter?
-
Their need for salvation through faith in Jesus. Many of my non-Christian friends have the idea that if they just live a pretty good life, they’ll make it in into heaven.
-
That an all-powerful and loving God would eternally separate Himself from people who tried to be good but never acknowledged Jesus as their savior.
We all have a sense of justice that we want to see in this world but we naturally judge ourselves less harshly than others to affirm our behaviors and maintain our pride. Anyone having a conversation about Jesus cannot deny that they have heard of Jesus and so what judgement should befall the person who has been told about God and continues to live in their own way? Isn’t God giving them an eternity of their choosing by separating Himself from them?
-
The biblical worldview that is least compelling to my non-Christian friends would be the effect that Adam and Eve’s sin still has on our generation and future generations to come. I think some have a difficult time understanding the implications of how their actions have impacted future generations, but their is redemption through Jesus Christ.
-
The need to repent, to die to ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Jesus. The faith we must possess in order to accept salvation then live as one saved is for most a very difficult thing to grasp.
-
The need for a savior. Many just do not see their need until the Holy Spirit opens their eyes
