A born again Christian's values are opposite the world's values.
Christians want to please Jesus who's values are being thankful for everything, loving everyone even our enemies, crucifying the flesh, being content, and putting God first in our life.
In contrast the values of this world focuses on self, like respecting oneself, fighting for ones rights, being proud, working hard, and accumulating wealth. I think non Christians can be loving and have good morals, but they live for this world, not the next. I think Christian values in general are superior because of our thankfulness to God for everything, and treating others the way we want to be treated, regardless how we are treated.
Jesus says [b]"If anyone loves the world the truth of the Father is not in them" [/b]1 John 2:15
