A worldview can be defined as a broad notion of the world from a specific perspective. A Christian worldview can be defined as an extensive perception of the world from a Christian viewpoint. A person s worldview on the other hand is hisher portrayal, a concord of hisher thinking about the world, life, and hisher understanding of the nature of reality. There are five main aspects of the Christian worldview. These aspects have the tendency to respond to inquiries about life and existence in a definite manner queries about God, man, reality (metaphysics), truth (epistemology) and morals.

These aspects are
God.  The Christian worldview explains that there is one God, who is individual and infinite, has three in one, the maker and sustainer of all life, and who loves unconditionally and is just to all. God is personal and infinite-he relates to every individual personally, every Christian has a personal relationship with God where prayer is used as a means of communication. He created the world from nothing (Genesis 1, New American Bible) and he has power over life and death. He is three in one - God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit His love to all was shown when he gave his only son to die for our sins and he deals with everyone with justice (Wayne, n.d.  Drury, 2010  Cosgrove, 2006, p. 152-153).

I agree that in the beginning, there was the world, which was abstract and not in its current form and that something happened that made this world take form to the way it is right now. Whether it was due to the big bang theory or some supernatural being that made all this possible I do not know. I would like to think it was God. I believe that God is the maker and sustainer of life and that we relate to Him in a personal level through prayer. I believe He has three components, Him as the Father, Jesus as His son and the Spirit and I believe He loves us conditionally. What I disagree with is that he deals with us justly. I do not understand how God can view all sins as the same, theft and murder as the same it does not make sense to me. There are some crimes that should be treated with more weight than the others are.

ManHumanity. The Christian worldview affirms that man was specially created in the image and the likeness of God and that man is responsible for his actions and accountable to God, and due to his rebellion, there consists a corrupt environment in this world. Man has a conscience that is in existent eternally. In my point of view, I concur with the fact that everyone was created special since everyone is unique in his or her own way. I agree that everyone is responsible for his or her actions and they should be responsible for what they do. I also agree that man is entirely responsible for the corrupt state of the universe today but I also think that this state should be there to maintain a balance between good and evil. It is also impossible however, to believe that there is an afterlife and that humans are still conscience even in their death (Wayne, n.d.  Drury, 2010).

RealityMetaphysics. This aspects maintains that God directs the course of the universe by making all things, usual and unusual (like miracles) possible and has plans for the world which is to bring praise and honor to him and satisfy man with long life (Drury, 2010  Moore and Stonestreet, 2010).

In my own point of view, the discussion of the usual and unusual occurrences is still a mystery. Some unusual events like why it does not snow in Africa can be explained geographically, but other mysteries like demon possession and exorcisms are still inexplicable, even science cannot explain.
TruthEpistomology. Christians believe that here are other ways of identifying reality and that God discloses all truth in the bible. I believe that God is the source of truth and that the bible provides us with some channels of truth, but there are some truths that have to be scientifically proven, case in point the debate of life on Mars (Drury, 2010  Moreland and Craig, 2003, pp.158-160).

MoralsEthics. Christians believe in a standard of judging right or wrong, this standard being the Ten Commandments clearly stipulated in the Bible, which is a source of truth and the ones that were revealed by Jesus. I agree that the Bible provides the basic template of morals and ethics that we should follow and define our way of life, without which this world would be chaotic (Moreland and Craig, 2003, pp. 153-154).

Conclusion
Everybody has a worldview, and functions from a set of faiths that forms their outlook of the world, whether they comprehend it or not. The answer to understanding the world, the world s history, and the problems in the world is to grasp the postulations that outline the customs and actions of the group who conform to them. The Bible presents a worldview by ascertaining certain facts about reality that are essential to all but there are certain worldviews compete with the Christian worldview, like Marxism, secular worldviews etc. In taking the Christian worldview as the basic guide to understanding the world, individuals should have some compromise when it comes to answering some of the questions that deal with God s existence, how the world came to be, about reality and truth. Whatever template of worldviews an individual decides to use as a guide in answering these questions, heshe should have a blend of opinions from hisher own understanding of the world.
