The Christian worldview is a framework for understanding reality based on divine revelation from the Bible and centered on God's work of redemption through Jesus Christ. It views history as having three parts - Creation, where God created humans with dignity; the Fall, where humanity turned against God making the world sinful; and Redemption, where God revealed himself through Jesus Christ to save the world and establish his kingdom, which will be completed at Christ's return. The Christian worldview provides an accurate diagnosis of the human problem of sin and the only answer through salvation based on historical truth.
