The Story

I was assigned to write my worldview based on the Bible in 200 words or less. This challenged me to only put in what was of absolute necessity. What do yout think I left out? What could be taken out?? The main thrust of the Bible is the relationship that God desires to have with man. The Bible teaches that the Triune God exists from eternity past to eternity future. This God created the world and everything in it, including creating man in His image. Man chose to rebel against God and the perfect relationship between God and man was broken. However, God did not give up on man, but He entered into a covenant relationship with His chosen people, the nation of Israel. Israel chose to rebel against God but He still did not forsake man. God the Father sent God the Son to earth to incarnate as a man. This virgin born Messiah would go on to live a perfect life. Jesus ultimately laid down His own life to die a criminal’s death for man. His blood paid the price for man’s sin so that only those who put their trust in Him would be restored to that perfect fellowship with God in eternity. Jesus rose from the dead and ascended to His Father in heaven. The Spirit has now been sent to indwell believers and comfort man before Christ comes again to receive His believers unto Himself.
