Relativism: Grace without Truth

Dec 7, 2025    Pastor Troy Schroeder

I. Relativism is the doctrine that knowledge, truth, and morality exist in relation to culture, society, or historical context. and are not absolute. "Relativism is the idea that there is no absolute truth"


II. Relativism rejects the idea that any one religion, including Christianity, can be

exclusively true, promoting instead the notion that all religions are equally valid

paths to God. This denies the uniqueness of Christ's person and work and leads to religious pluralism.


III. Absolute Truth is defined as a statement or belief that is true at all times. in all places, and for all people, regardless of individual perspectives, beliefs, or

circumstances. It is considered obiective unchanging, and universally applicable standing in contrast to relative truths that are dependent on context.
