CHAPTER I

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction

The truthful answer is that we cannot know for certain. We cannot prove the

existence of God, but there are many reasons why belief in God is reasonable. The first is

that nothing science has discovered explains the existence of the universe. Yet the

universe has a beauty and an order that suggest a rational mind lies behind it all. Just as

the existence of a computer demonstrates that there is someone who invented it, so the

world in all its beautiful complexity points to the existence of a Creator, God.

A second reason is that within the heart of man there is a capacity to love and a

desire to be loved. Christians point to that and say it indicates that there is a power of

love in the world, which many people call God. Another reason is that in every part of the

world today and throughout history, men and women have always believed and

worshipped God. Some people have said that in every person there is a “Godshaped hole”

that only God can fill. The existence of that desire to pray and to believe and talk with

God is one argument for God’s existence. There are lots more reasons why people believe

in God. Trusting him is always worth it Having faith is having trust.

You have to trust with your entire being that God has your back that he will help

you and take care of you. He knows what is best, but to truly embrace what he has

planned for you, you have to fully trust. Our trust is not foolish, for our God is both

faithful and good.

Serving allows us to experience the joy and Peace that comes from obedience and

by serving God is to serve others and we believe that it is a best form of charity here we

can feel the love of Christ whatever we do the least of neighbors, we do to him so if we

really want to serve him the best way is to start it by serving the needy. You don't have to

be professional in able to serve but all of us are called to be servant of Christ in our own

ways. Throughout Christian education’s history, the objective of Christian education has

been to communicate God’s story about life in His Kingdom and to prepare hearts,

hands, and minds for service. God shows Himself to us as our Lord, the creator of all

things. Throughout the Biblical account, God makes it apparent that sin has entirely

destroyed His pristine creation, yet God continues to show His grace. he predicts that

Christ will come to restore the equilibrium lost in creation. Everyone is welcome to enter

His Kingdom.

Living in the Kingdom allows us to develop our faith. Everyday occurrences that

touch our lives provide us with opportunities to cultivate faith. Children’s life are shaped

by their experiences, both happy and sad. Christian schools incorporate these

experiences into God’s story.

A Christian school's goal should not be to protect its pupils from the world, but

rather to educate them how to alter it. A Christian school provides for a more hands-on

approach to this aim, much as churches enable Christians to learn about God and

express His love to others.

A Christian education prepares students to grasp the truth found in the Bible and

to boldly communicate their religion with others. People will be able to influence the

world through Christ if they learn how to defend their beliefs and successfully

communicate the Gospel.

We are all human, and regardless of our history or upbringing, we all need to

know Christ's love. Children at Christian schools are no exception. They may face the

same problems and have the same concerns as students in public schools. The

distinction is that the emphasis of education at a Christian school is to pull pupils into a

deeper and more complete understanding of God and the world He created. This,

together with the instructors' Christian experience, encourages students to ask crucial

questions and work through challenges in a way that is pleasing to God, preparing them

for long-term success.

Again, we recognize that selecting a school for your children is a major decision,

and we hope that God would direct you to the greatest option for your family.

The study was further limited itself to using open ended questionnaire and semi

structured interview from respondents to determine The Impact of Christian Living

Education in the Faith Dimension of the Grade 10-Bethlehem students.
