Many people today have adopted a view of truth known as \u201crelativism.\u201d Relativism is a belief system that holds to the point of view that there is no absolute truth. When a relativist hears Christians make biblical truth claims about morality they will usually respond by saying, \u201cWell, that may be true for you, but it\u2019s not true for me.\u201d The reason why they react this way is because they don\u2019t believe truth exists; all truth is really just personal opinion.<\/p>\n<p>However, what is remarkable about this erroneous view of truth is that people actually believe it, even though it is self-defeating and contradictory. For example, when the relativist states, \u201cThere is no absolute truth,\u201d they are actually making an absolute truth claim. In other words, if there were no absolute truths, no statement could ever be absolutely true, including the one they just made! So a great response to the claim, \u201cThere is no absolute truth,\u201d is, \u201cDo you believe your statement, \u2018There is no absolute truth\u2019 is absolutely true?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another example of relativism\u2019s contradictory nature is when they say, \u201cYour belief may be true for you, but it\u2019s not true for me because nothing is true for everybody.\u201d Similar to before, this statement makes a claim that truth is always relative. But if truth is always relative, then the statement itself couldn\u2019t be true because it is stated absolutely. You could respond, \u201cIs the statement, \u2018It\u2019s true for you but it\u2019s not true for everybody,\u2019 true for everybody?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I know dealing with people like this can be hard and even seem confusing but the only reason it feels so \u201cmind bending\u201d is because relativism tries to divorce truth (facts corresponding to reality) from logic (how we understand and reason within reality). <b>If truth and logic don\u2019t work together to form a proper understanding of <\/b><b>reality the world is reduced to nonsense. <\/b>Likewise, if something is illogical it cannot be true, and when something is true it will always be logical.<\/p>\n<p>Here are three ways you can stand for truth: (1) Believe that absolute truth exists because Jesus (the Truth) exists. (2) Demonstrate that science, math, and logic discover truth because God made humans in His image to use His well-designed universe to learn more about Him. In other words, the pursuit of truth is really the pursuit to understand the mind of God. (3) Use the Bible, God\u2019s foundation for truth, to help others understand that truth comes from God and is applicable to all areas of their lives. For example, the best scientists, doctors, politicians, workers, inventors, teachers, businessmen, and parents are those who believe in God\u2019s truth and apply them to their daily lives.<\/p>\n<p>May we all be like Paul who stated in this passage from Corinthians, today\u2019s passage, \u201cWe cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='av-social-sharing-box av-45lwjr-a7c17c29131f64223ea926453db65cb5 av-social-sharing-box-default  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_comments_list  av-social-sharing-box-fullwidth'><div class=\"av-share-box\"><h5 class='av-share-link-description av-no-toc '>Share this entry<\/h5><ul class=\"av-share-box-list noLightbox\"><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-facebook' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Facebook\" href='https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/www.sum.edu\/standing-for-the-truth\/&#038;t=Standing%20for%20the%20Truth' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue8f3' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Facebook'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-twitter' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on X\" href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Standing%20for%20the%20Truth&#038;url=https:\/\/www.sum.edu\/?p=5231' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue932' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on X'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on X<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-square-x-twitter' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on X\" href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Standing%20for%20the%20Truth&#038;url=https:\/\/www.sum.edu\/?p=5231' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue933' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on X'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on X<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-pinterest' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Pinterest\" href='https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sum.edu%2Fstanding-for-the-truth%2F&#038;description=Standing%20for%20the%20Truth&#038;media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sum.edu%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F05%2Fadult-1869621_1920-705x470.jpg' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue8f8' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Pinterest'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-linkedin' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on LinkedIn\" href='https:\/\/linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&#038;title=Standing%20for%20the%20Truth&#038;url=https:\/\/www.sum.edu\/standing-for-the-truth\/' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue8fc' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on LinkedIn'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-reddit' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Reddit\" href='https:\/\/reddit.com\/submit?url=https:\/\/www.sum.edu\/standing-for-the-truth\/&#038;title=Standing%20for%20the%20Truth' aria-hidden='false' data-av_icon='\ue927' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Reddit'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Reddit<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='av-buildercomment av-3ahd1j-1c4949f47e598d115633ae113d0ae27b  av-blog-meta-html-info-disabled'><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5232,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[63,67],"tags":[163,94,164,165,162],"class_list":["post-5231","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-culture","category-ethics","tag-absolute-truth","tag-christianity","tag-moral-relativism","tag-relativity","tag-truth"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
