A Biblical worldview is important because it helps us to see the world as God sees it and to live according to His will and purpose.

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. (2 Peter 2:1)

A Biblical worldview shapes our understanding of God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, ourselves, and others and guides our moral choices and actions. A Biblical worldview also enables us to discern the truth from the lies and to defend our faith in a hostile culture. A Biblical worldview is not just a set of beliefs but a way of life that honors God and blesses others.

An anti-biblical worldview is a view of the world that contradicts or ignores the teachings of the Bible and the indwelling voice of Christ Himself. It can be dangerous for several reasons:

• It can lead to false beliefs about God, reality, morality, and human destiny. For example, an anti-biblical worldview may deny the existence of God, the creation of the world, the sinfulness of humanity, the need for salvation, the authority of Scripture, the resurrection of Christ, and the judgment to come.

• It can result in harmful behaviors and consequences. For example, an anti-biblical worldview may justify immorality, violence, oppression, injustice, idolatry, and rebellion against God. It may also cause despair, confusion, guilt, fear, and hopelessness.

• It can hinder the spread of the gospel and the growth of the church. For example, an anti-biblical worldview may oppose, ridicule, or persecute Christians and their message. It may also create barriers, doubts, or apathy among those who need to hear and respond to the gospel.

Therefore, as indwelt Christians, we should be aware of the dangers of an anti-biblical worldview and seek to develop a Christ-centered biblical worldview that is released through the believer, with Jesus being the TRUTH and wisdom of God’s Word. We should also be ready to defend our faith and share the gospel with those with an anti-biblical worldview in love and respect by releasing Christ.

While there are droves of self-justified worldviews, looking at the basics that affect the End Times, there are only six, which matches the number and meaning of the “six” in the book of Revelation: (God’s worldview not included)

1. Following Christian: The word “Christian” is derived from combining the name Christ (from the Greek word meaning “anointed one” or “messiah”) and the suffix -ian (“to have the same qualities as”). In short, Christians are those who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ but do not necessarily accept the indwelling Biblical principles of “Christ in you.” Simply put, these people follow Christ’s teaching instead of releasing Jesus from within AS the teacher.

2. Islamic Worldview: The Islamic, or Muslim population, derives from the illegitimate son of Abraham, Ishmael. Their most recent prophet, Muhammad, established the beliefs of the Quran to return its people back to the heritage of Ishmael. They have been Israel’s greatest enemies since Ishmael and Isaac fought for the dominance of the birthrights of Abraham. Their god is Allah, who is the End Times god of global dominance.

3. Pantheism Worldview: Pantheism is one of the oldest gods of the gentile populous. In the Greek, it means all is god. This worldview allows the freedom to believe a wide array of belief systems by placing a “god” in objects or universal cosmic ideations such as the stars, moon, solar systems, etc.

4. Naturalism Worldview: Naturalism is the belief in science as a god. Its organic meaning is the doctrine that scientific laws are adequate to account for all phenomena. Naturalists believe that everything can be explained through natural causes (as opposed to supernatural ones). They adhere to Darwinism, secular humanism, and Marxism.   

5. Postmodernism Worldview: Postmodernism is an intellectual and philosophical movement that rejects modernism, which derived from the European Masonic Enlightenment era - universalism.  These believers reject the idea of objective truth itself. This means that truth is up to each individual’s perspective. This worldview is noted as the top global worldview in our modern era.

6. Syncretism Worldview: Syncretism defines a belief system that holds to the ideations of a worldview made up of a mixture of beliefs and values based on personal preference. These people blend all gods into one god. Out of all the Satanic worldviews, this is the most dangerous – for it points/directs all global gods to the single god, Satan’s Antichrist. This belief system is the most common worldview used by those who follow Jesus vs. those who are indwelt by him.  

These are the six primary identity characteristics of the book of Revelation’s Antichrist. The Antichrist will make use of followers of Christ to keep them from authentic salvation before the Rapture. He will use the Islamic populous to start a global war with Israel in the end. He will allow the world to believe in pantheism to redirect spiritual minds to worship himself through the False Prophet. He will use the naturalist group to advance his kingdom through the common elements of science. Satan will use the postmodern intellectuals to redirect individualized truth to sustain his collective global ideations and methodologies. Finally, Satan’s favorite is syncretism, which he will use to blend all gods into himself being a god.

THE SEVENTH WORLDVIEW: I, nor the Hebrew God, include Satan’s worldview within the context of God’s view. God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit’s worldview include:

• All human beings are born with a sinful nature; every choice humanity makes has eternal considerations and consequences.

• Knowing and receiving Jesus Christ, through the Holy Spirit, into one’s mortal body is the only means to salvation – through sanctification within our mortal being, by confessing Jesus is Lord, confessing our sins, and dependence on His forgiveness.

• The entire Bible is TRUTH, which is Jesus is true, reliable, and relevant, making it alive and active for every indwelt person in all situations.

• Absolute moral truth exists because Jesus is moral—those truths are defined by God, described in the Bible, and unchanging across time and cultures.

• The ultimate purpose of human life is for the Father to choose His Son’s Bridal member for eternity.

• The victorious indwelling Life is best understood as consistent obedience to God, Jesus Christ, through the indwelling Holy Spirit—in thoughts, words, and actions.

• All global events, past, present, and future, are orchestrated by God for His Divine Holy purposes.

How does all this affect a Christian's (follower or born-again) worldview? 

Big time!  The six worldviews of Satan affect the view of calamities, hardships, and persecutions that have occurred throughout church history – thus strongly affecting God’s mission of salvation in Christ before it is too late, which is at the moment of the Rapture. With success in Satan’s worldviews, he thinks he can deceive the masses into the fake peace he will offer in the Great Tribulation (reign of the antichrist). In our culture today, we already see the global masses turning on Israel. And this is the first of many signs that the 6,000 years of humanity are soon to come to an end.    

There is a sad conclusion to our teaching. If God sticks to His 90/10 tithing laws, ninety percent of self-proclaimed followers of Christ and the haters of God will be cut away and sent to the place of torment, while ten percent will abide with Jesus Christ in eternity forever. One fact remains: Only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will enter the city of God, the New Jerusalem. Outside of the 144,000 pure-bloodline Jews, it will be too late to try to enter the gates of Heaven after the Rapturing of the Saints occurs.

Will you dwell in the city of God forever and enjoy the beauty, purity, and glory of God’s New Earth? Yes, there will be a New Heaven, a New Earth, and a New Jerusalem. Revelation 21 introduces us to all things “new,” which the Father has prepared for those who received the indwelling Holy Spirit on earth before the Rapture. That guarantees that old things have passed away – the earth, Satan, his demons, false gods, the old nature, and anything else from the consequences of the deception that occurred in the Garden of Eden. Count on it.  

"You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you.” (John 15:16)

How do you know if He chose you? Easy! If you support and live by the seven points of God’s worldview.
