10. The Law of Attraction
Here's an answer from a Christian perspective....
1.) The Glory of God, as revealed in Jesus Christ for the salvation of sinners
2.) Romans 1 teaches that the basic concepts of God's moral law are inherent in nature and the human conscience. That is, everyone has some idea, however vague, of God's expectations.
3.) According to Scripture, there are no "good people," so I would have to be honest in saying that I am fundamentally a flawed and sinful person. Fortunately, God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on behalf of sinners, extend forgiveness to them, and offer them "newness of life" as Children of God.
4.) To glorify God in all I do.
5.) No. All beliefs point towards a shared yearning for God, but not all beliefs can be "equally" true, because they inevitably contradict at certain points. That is why I believe we need an objective standard of revelation, which is to be found in Scripture.
6.) That's a difficult question to answer. I think it was C.S. Lewis who said that as the bad elements of mankind get worst, the good elements also get better. On the one hand, I think that human nature, apart from God's grace, tends towards destruction. The 20th century was the bloodiest century in human history. On the other hand, I believe that God's grace aims to redeem people and instill in them the nature and character of God. So, the answer may be a little of both.
5.) Jesus summarized the "purpose" of humankind in two special phrases: love God with all your heart, mind, and soul; and love your neighbor as yourself. Right relations to one's neighbor naturally flows from right relations with God; you can't have the one without the other.
6.)Through a creative act of God. Scripture teaches that God is love, and love naturally manifests itself in an object of affection ("the beloved"). I believe God created the world as an expression of love.
9.) According to Scripture, God intends to create a "new heaven and a new earth" at some point in the future. In order to enter God's new creation, we must become new creations ourselves; that is, we must be "born again" through faith in Christ. I believe the redeemed pass immediately into the presence of God after death, but will be resurrected in a physical body when God creates the "new heavens and new earth." The unredeemed will perish eternally, although Christians differ on the details of what that means.
10.) That's always the toughest question for a Christian to answer. If God is good, why does He allow bad things to happen to good people? I believe that God gave humanity freedom of choice, to choose between good and evil, and to experience the consequences of both. When bad things happen to good people, it is not God's explicit will, but it is what we call His "permissive will." He permits us to experience cause & effect, and the consequences of our actions.
weve got jesus boy taking the survey, watch out
It seems like you have received a variety of responses to your survey questions. It's interesting to see the different perspectives people have on these topics. It's important to note that these answers reflect the beliefs and opinions of the individuals who provided them, and may not be universally applicable. Sociology seeks to understand social behavior, relationships, and societal structures, so analyzing and interpreting these different responses can offer valuable insights into how individuals and societies form their views on these topics.
In order to analyze the survey responses, you can start by categorizing the answers and comparing them across different participants. Look for patterns, commonalities, and differences in their beliefs and values. This will help you draw conclusions about how individuals determine what is important in their lives, how they determine right and wrong, and how they assess their own morality. You can also analyze the responses to understand people's goals, beliefs about truth, perspectives on human progress, and the meaning they ascribe to humanity and existence.
Keep in mind that sociological research often involves considering broader social, cultural, and historical contexts that influence individuals' perspectives. So, it would be beneficial to explore how factors such as religious beliefs, cultural backgrounds, personal experiences, and social structures may have shaped the responses you received.
Lastly, make sure to maintain confidentiality and anonymity of the survey participants as you analyze their responses. Respecting ethical guidelines is crucial when conducting research involving human subjects.
