Dear Doug 1

Dear Doug I am glad to hear that you argon settled in and that everything is intumesce. It is also a relief to hear that you and your roommate seem to be acquiring along and I promise that your friendship with Nathan will grow. I have thought close your perplexitys and resolved on some ways to help you explain, and help Nathan interpret and understand the Nazareneianity. In my life I have experienced the same situation you mentioned slightly Christian oral communication and what it means to be a Christian.I grew up in a Christian home under Christian principles and it had not occurred to me why do I believe in Christianity? Of course this did not occur to me until I was older and had thought about it for some time. I thought about this initiation and how it could have been created not by mere take a chance unless by something or someone far more intelligent than mere humans, not by chance. This universe and everything in it was created with superior intelligence and for a p urpose.I looked into Christianity and saw how deity created the earth a organism far above humans because we were made by him a perfect powerful all subtile being who created us in his likeness to serve a distinct purpose in this world, or else than leaving it up to mere chance. I knew there had to be a reason for this world and a good one I looked farther into Christianity and the story of how God created the earth called the Gospel. I am confident(predicate) you have heard of the Gospel and s set up the story, but you must take into account many things forwards you explain it to a non-Christian.Many non-Christians are not familiar with Christian terminology because they have not looked into Christianity and read the Bible to understand our belief, and we as Christs followers must explain the Gospel in a simplified way for volume who are not familiar with certain Christian terminology so they can understand the concept and become more familiar with the terminology. One way yo u can simplify the meaning of these words is to define them and simplify them in a way that you clearly fork over the meaning of that word.An example would be instead of saying we are sinful people, you could say we are uncontrollable or you could define sin as bad behavior or actions that you commit. Use words that people use on regular bases to define a certain word, which will give them a advance understanding since they already understand the correct meaning of that word to better understand any Christian terminology. You may not have known, but you have already or at least started to hammer and create your own world catch. A worldview is exactly what it sounds like, its the way we interpret, understand, and our opinion about the world and how we view it.A worldview is how you see the world and your opinion or idea of reality. Norman Geisler and William Watkins give a very well thought out worldview explanation and an example that may help you understand, It is an interpreti ve framework through which or by which one makes sense of the data of life and the world. A worldview is like a pair of eyeglasses and the only way to view the world and everything in it, is through the pair of glasses, and like the prescription of glasses, everyones worldview is different. Now that I have given you an understanding of a worldview I will do my outstrip to explain to you what a Christian worldview is.A Christian worldview would basically be a Christian influence on how you shape your worldview. A Christian worldview would be based on Christian principles that youve read and learned about in your life. How you view the world and reality would be based on Christian morals and morals rather than a different world view based on societys standards. A Christian worldview is typically a brighter more positive outlook on life rather than a worldview not based on Christianity it gives you more of a purpose and reason for the questions what? , why? , and how? Your last que stion I also struggled with and lock in do from time to time.We all know that we have accepted Christ into our hearts but the greater reason is why. I have asked this question to myself many times and sometimes feel over whelmed, but there is a reason. Take a look around this world it is full of proof and purpose. The intelligence that was required to form this world was more than mere chance but above normal human intelligence. God a supernatural being who is perfect created this earth for a purpose and with intelligent design. You yourself were made for a purpose and you yourself are far more complex to be created out of mere chance.Also the sacrifice that God made for us to have another chance counterbalance though we wronged him, beyond human means of forgiveness, it amazes me how someone could love us so much still wanting to obtain a relationship with us. Even when we show disobedience and repetitively wrong God he will still forgive us if we truly and honestly ask for forgi veness from him. He gave us free will to make our own decisions to disobey him or to love him. I hope that this letter has assisted you in understanding your questions and I would be glad to attempt and answer more, so keep thinking and writing I hope everything with your roommate goes well, Daniel
