From Nimrod’s historic axiological rebellion of Babel proceeded an ontological subversion of the whole notion of truth in the development and dissemination of occult and psychological religion: man’s idea, not revelation, asserted as the basis of truth.
There is a revival of syncretism in the modern approach to religion that not only dashes to pieces the real and historical claims of biblical Christianity (and of other historical faiths) by relativizing them, but also presupposes an absolute, divine perspective on truth for the syncretist.
Despite its claims to an exalted position of religious neutrality, secular relativism is self-refuting because it clearly has absolute intent – to control the whole playing field. We must expose secularism’s self-deception and confront our culture with biblical truth.
When considering the mission of God and reign of Christ, it is imperative that Christians understand the difference between utopia and the kingdom of God, lest they be found advancing the cause of other gods and another faith.
