My Basic Philosophical Framework

This is my attempt to formalize my worldview, the principles that guide my fight against Frustration. Please remember this is a work in progress.

• The Triune God of the Universe is not silent, hiding, or inactive.
• Without His direct and personal intervention, we are des in our sins and transpasses.
• The Triune God works, provides, and secures redemption for those who belong to Him.
• The Christian disciple is called to imitate the humanity of God the Son in humility, compassion, and generosity.
• The Christian disciple lives in the Tension of the Here & Now vs. the Approaching Glory.
• While in the Tension, the Christian disciples must consider themselves as sheep for the slaughter.
• The main purpose of the Christian disciple must be to be known as a faithful steward of God's grace.
• The fundamental expression of managing His grace faithfully is Generous Hospitality.
• To face Frustration, the Christian disciple must learn Content.
• Content comes from the conviction given by who we are and what we have in Him.
• Content is reinforced in the life of the Christian disciple by the Means of Grace.

What about you? What philosophical system guides your interaction with Reality?

May He make His face to shine upon y'all.
