Creation Regained: Biblical Basics for a Reformational Worldview (Used Copy)

Description

In an attempt to spell out the content of a biblical worldview and how it is significant for our lives as we seek to be obedient to the Scriptures, Albert M. Wolters has written this brief and straightforward examination of the reformational worldview.

Wolters begins by defining the nature and scope of a worldview, distinguishing it from philosophy as such, and pointing out the considerable variety of worldviews that have been propounded within the Christian community throughout history.

He then goes on to outline a Reformed analysis of three fundamental turning points in human history—Creation, the Fall, and Redemption—concluding that evil is not a necessary condition for the created world, and that, therefore, the world can be restored to a state of perfection. It is the Christian’s responsibility, Wolters argues, to strive to bring about this realignment with God’s ordinances.

Finally, Wolters explores ways in which the reformational worldview is uniquely suited to the task of reforming the world to biblically prescribed patterns. He includes practical applications, showing how the principles he has developed might be applied in four specific areas: human aggression, spiritual gifts, human sexuality, and dance.
