This world is a purposeful creation by God, in which all people are tested concerning their use of free-will. We possess a soul which lives on after the body dies and is held responsible for the person's actions. Anyone who is worthy can merit reward in the afterlife.
1) The world is not chaotic or the result of chance. Life is the work of a deliberate, purposeful, intelligent and kind Creator; not a melancholy chaos or a string of fortuitous accidents. God is at the center of reality and should be the center of our world-outlook and thoughts.
2. God's ways are eternal. God is not capricious, forgetful or fickle. Investing in a relationship with God is the only thing that will bear eternal benefits.
3. God knows the thoughts and deeds of all. He has given us free-will, and we're tested as to how we use it.
4. God rewards the good and punishes the wicked. God is just (Deuteronomy 32:4); and all outstanding accounts are settled after this life.
