可以这样理解，即二者的对立性。
耶稣在福音书里对门徒说，想跟随耶稣的人必须先否定自己(合和本圣经里翻译为舍己)。那否定自己的什么呢？首当其冲的是要否定自己的思维逻辑。
在世界的逻辑里，每个人都认为自己是好人; 而福音真理却是: 由于每个人都或有贪心，或有憎恨，或有淫念等等(神察验人心)，并且犯一条就犯众条，因此都是罪人。
在世界的逻辑里，神来召的是义人; 而真理却是: 神来召的是罪人。或者说，在世界的逻辑里，人眼里的好人才配得拯救; 而真理却是: 认为自己是罪人的才能被拯救，因为康健的人不需要医生。
在世界的逻辑里，人需要上供给神，神才保佑人; 而真理却是: 神喜欢的是怜悯人，而不是人的祭祀。
在世界的逻辑里，人积德行善才能进天堂; 而福音真理却是，神不受从人来的荣耀，罪人根本行不出神眼中的善来。
在世界的逻辑里，一些人认为基督徒只有做好事才能得救; 而真理是得救了才能做好事，因为知道了基督为了我的罪被钉死在十字架上，无条件地爱了我。只有认识到这个，基督徒才有美好的动力去做好事，才能被神纪念。
在世界的逻辑里，一些人认为被耶稣拯救是因为选择了相信耶稣; 而真理却是，不是因为这些人拣选了耶稣，而是因为耶稣拣选了这些人。
在世界的逻辑里，人犯了罪才是罪人; 而福音真理是: 罪人才会犯罪。
世界的逻辑是要很你的仇敌； 而圣经真理是要爱你的仇敌，为迫害你的祷告。
在世界的逻辑里，先有鸡还是先有蛋是永远无解的一个问题; 而福音真理却是: 神既有权柄先造鸡，也有权柄先造蛋，不论先有哪个，反正都来自于神，问题变得无比简单。
明白了这些道理，基督里的弟兄姐妹们是不是安息下来了呢？!
