It has been said that in a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. We certainly live in a time of universal deceit. Therefore, let’s be revolutionary in truth telling, but let’s also take heed that the context within which Christ builds His church is one of war. Remember Ephesians chapter 6. The Apostle Paul, in closing that wonderful letter, exhorts the church with these words: “Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.”

Christians are combatants in a spiritual war that hinges on the fulcrum of truth. I love 2 Corinthians 10:5 where it says that “we are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.” This is what the church of Jesus Christ is to be about: taking every false idea and concept captive to Christ’s obedience. In that regard, our worldview matters.

A Christian worldview adequately addresses the core issues of life: Epistemology;
Theology; Morality; Reality; and Anthropology
