Worldview

2 Corinthians 3-6 

“So, from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.”

2 Corinthians 5:16

Paul was a contemporary of Jesus Christ, and as a Pharisee, was trained in Jerusalem by Gamaliel. He would have watched Jesus preach and heal in the temple. Paul considered Jesus a threat to all he believed in prior to his conversion. Upon experiencing the power of the Gospel, the veil covering Paul’s mind was removed and he saw Jesus as the Christ. Paul saw people with eternal value, even to the degree that he was willing to die for them so they also could experience salvation in Christ. Paul saw himself differently. He saw and received God’s amazing love and was now compelled by that love to live and share the Gospel.

Do we see Jesus, others, and ourselves the same way?

Or are we still viewing life from a worldly point of view?

Our media worldview and the biblical worldview are opposed to each other.

Which worldview is shaping our decisions?

“Lord Jesus, fill me with your love and message of reconciliation today, for your glory.”
