Answer Below:
1: As per my perspective God is typically seen as the highest deity, the inventor, as well as the central figure in monotheistic philosophy. I believe this because the typical conception of God includes eternal and essential existence, in addition to omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence, and omnibenevolence. 1 John 5:20. 20 Additionally, Christians like me are aware that the Jesus Christ has arrived as well as given our religion that wisdom so that people can recognize the True One. Yet as a result of his Son, Jesus Christ, people are already in him who really is truthful. He is the creator of the universe & source of everlasting life (Arcadi, 2018). 2: I have learned that the Latin phrase "Image of God," which appears in Genesis' creation narrative, is translated as "Imago Dei." My religion has made me believe in Learn what it means and how it matters that people were made in Image and likeness of God (Wright, 2019). As per my perspective the mystical term, linked only with humanity, that denotes the spiritual affinity among humanity and God is known as the "image and Likeness of god." Genesis 1:27, which states that "God made mankind after his own picture," was where the expression first appeared. This bible verse doesn't really suggest that Jesus is a person, merely that people are made in Christ's likeness in terms of its ethical, intellectual, as well as philosophical nature (Bradley, 2020). 3: Experience is fascinating since it is a matter of personal preference. Since the start of my relationship with God, I had already gone through life experience. Here seem to be some that particularly catch my attention: Time seemed to stop still for the very first time, allowing me to clearly feel God's presence resting on me. My body sensed there was something unusual as it dropped onto me like a thick, thick blanket. Similar circumstances occurred the evening I chose to trust in Jesus. It was a bad day, and then as I was starting to lose power as well as consider taking some few beers to forget my troubles, the rushing of 3 winds I experienced in my eyes and indeed the reality that now the gospels suddenly came obvious to me transformed just about anything (Cook, 2019). 4: I believe without faith, keep hoping as well as loving would struggle under the weight of all the of the world's misery. My religion has taught me that belief is essential because it serves as a reminder that there exists goodness in the world, which every life is valuable and also that the characteristics that make individuals humans are worth protecting. With time I understood that God can be found by helping others. So, I often take an active part in Saturday service to serve the people in the church (Hobson, 2020). 5: The area of theology known as "Christology" is focused on the person as well as activity of Jesus, particularly the Incarnate, the Resurrection, and also the link between his divine and human characteristics. My hopes and expectations are that there will be a practical way to determine what hand gesture interacts with supernatural action, or even more specifically, how divine revelation inspires human devotion as well as how belief reverberates within in the practical actions taken through Christians and their societies (Pawl, 2019). 6: This course's teaching methodology is really what interests me the most. I'm looking forward to engaging in talks with folks that share as well as disagree with my opinions as long as people do it with logic and compassion. A much of the what the Jesus taught about just the rich and poor in Society now may be applicable, therefore I'm anticipating the opportunity to learn about his life as well as philosophies as well. Christian worldview, as far as I'm aware, is the examination of Jesus Life of Christ and mission as they are described in the New Testament's Gospel (Rumbay, 2020). 4 References Arcadi, J. M. (2018).
