5 They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them.
6 We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit[a] of truth and the spirit of falsehood.
The sermon discusses the importance of viewing life through the lens of a biblical worldview. Pastor Lonnie explains how many people look at the world through perspectives of evolution, materialism, race, or culture, which distorts their understanding. However, as Christians, we should seek clarity by adopting a biblical perspective, rooted in God's scripture and truth. Pastor Lonnie likens the biblical worldview to wearing glasses, helping us see life as God intended and avoid being misled by worldly doctrine.
Pastor Lonnie highlights four worldviews that distort our understanding - evolution, materialism, race, and culture - and contrasts them with a biblical worldview that relies on God's truth. He urges us to look at life through the lens of scripture, as it brings clarity and purpose. He also emphasizes the importance of knowing our identity in Christ because it will help us navigate life's challenges with confidence knowing that God has a plan for us.
