Presentation transcript:

1) What's Really Real 2) What's God 3) What’s ultimate reality *) How can Christians be deceived by this

Theistic Realism 1) Physical world and Spiritual world 2) A personal, all-powerful God 3) Heaven and Hell *) This is what Scripture teaches

Deism 1)Physical world and maybe a Spiritual world 2) All-powerful God 3) Heaven *) God doesn't really care about me

Naturalism 1) Physical World 2) Nature 3) Worm food *) Circumstances are more powerful than God

Eastern Pantheism (New Age mixes this with another worldview) 1) Spiritual World 2) God is in everything and everything is God 3) Nirvana (an eternal sea of oneness of souls) *) We're all saying the same thing

Postmodernism 1) No way of really knowing 2) I am (unless I want something else to be God) 3) Every person figures that out for themselves *) My opinion is no better than anyone else's. I'll keep my mouth shut.
