And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Romans 12:2

We left off yesterday saying that worldviews are not something we always think about, but they are what we always think with. In other words, some people do not know what their worldview is, but it is revealed by what they think about everything. Others claim their worldview is one thing, but what they think about everything reveals that their worldview is not what they say it is. For example, a biblical worldview is not saying that one has a biblical worldview if one does not think biblically—no matter what they claim.

A biblical worldview is nothing more or less that thinking biblically about everything.

Every worldview has moral implications. Why? Because morality is something we all think about, whether we are aware of it or not. A biblical worldview is morally in step with what the Bible says about every moral issue.

A most fundamental issue is not simply that we believe that human beings are created in the image of God, but what it means that we are the image bearers of God. More pointedly, what are the moral implications of the fact that human beings are created in God’s own image?
