So here's something that has been bouncing around in my head- I've been recognizing another tension in Christian culture- the struggle between relevance and solid truth. How far can relevance go until it becomes relativism? How far can solid truth go until it becomes legalism?
Here's my opinion-
They need eachother. An idea cannot have true relevance without knowing what it is in the first place. A solid truth cannot be solid truth if it is not experienced by more than just one person or group of people.
The question is, how do people get so solidified in the extremes? How do these things become so divisive? Everyone's fighting for their version of Christian culture to be on top, up to the point in which they forget their God.
it's sad.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
