Thursday Discipleship Notes

Chapter 4: Worldview Features

"The Heavens are telling of the glory of God, and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge."

Psalms 19:1-2

Discussion Questions:

  1. What are the 3 leading issues for any worldview to answer?

  2. From what do we derive the word, metaphysics? What is metaphysics?

  3. What are some key metaphysical questions?

  4. Do all people have a metaphysical program? Explain.

  5. What is the difference between neutral ground and common ground?

  6. In the christian view, what are the two levels of reality?

  7. What do we mean when we say that God is self-contained? How is that significant for our apologetic?

  8. From what do we derive the word, epistemology? What is epistemology?

  9. What are some key epistemological questions?

  10. Why do we say that all the universe reveals God?

  11. What are the three forms of revelation in the Christian epistemology? Briefly explain each one.

  12. What are some key ethical questions?

  13. Discuss Exodus 3:14, regarding its insight into God's being.

  14. What are the two principle bible passages that clearly assert the Bible as inspired revelation from God?

Practical Applications:

  1. Presuppositional apologetics is holistic, worldview apologetics. With some Christian friends, discuss ways in which the Christian outlook on any given issue is fundamentally different at the level of basic principles from the non-Christian outlook.

  2. Carefully read Genesis 1 and Psalm 8, and discuss what it means to exist in the Image of God, and how man differs from animals in that regard.

  3. Metaphysics, Epistemology, and their significance from the Christian perspective.

  4. Read & outline in detail the first chapter of the Westminster Confession of Faith (WCF), On Scriptures.

  5. Read the Humanist Manifesto II, and list metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical differences with your Christian worldview. 

In Christ,

– Jonathan
