A Christian Worldview

Changed Lives | On Purpose

Acts 9:3-6 (NIV) As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked.“I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”

1 Corinthians 15:14 (NIV) If Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.

Paul’s World Pharisee

Matthew 23:13 (NIV) “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites!

John 18:3 (NIV) So Judas came to the garden, guiding a detachment of soldiers and some officials from the chief priests and the Pharisees. They were carrying torches, lanterns and weapons.

Acts 26:5 (NIV) I (Paul) conformed to the strictest sect of our religion, living as a Pharisee.

Philipians 3:4-5 (NIV) If someone else thinks they have reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: … a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee;

Romans 10:4 (NIV) Christ is the culmination of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.

Paul’s World Pharisee Philosophy

Politics Science Theology

Philosophy Epicurean = dualism

Philosophy Epicurean = dualism Stoic = pantheism

Romans 8:5 (NIV) Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.

Paul’s World Pharisee Philosophy Pagan Religions

Acts 19:23-40 Artemis the god in Ephesus / Asia Demetrius the Silversmith

Acts 19:26 (NIV) Paul has convinced and led astray large numbers of people here in Ephesus and in practically the whole province of Asia. He says that gods made by human hands are no gods at all.

Paul’s World Pharisee Philosophy Pagan Religions Roman Citizen

Caesar is lord vs. Jesus is Lord

Romans 10:9-10 (NIV) If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.

Changed Lives | On Purpose

1 Peter 1:3-4 (NIV) Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade.
