What is Christ without Absolutes: A Study of the Christology of Ernst Troeltsch (Clarendon Paperbacks) about?

Can Christians continue to worship Jesus Christ as the full, final, and "absolute" revelation of God in an age of historical relativism, an expanding universe, and the impinging of other world faiths on Western culture? The great German liberal theologian Ernst Troeltsch (1865-1923) didn't think so, yet no full exposition of his Christology has ever been available. This bold and penetrating study provides a complete examination of Troeltsch's relativism in light of current debates in the social sciences; evaluates the strength of his case against traditional incarnationalism; and commends Troeltsch's use of sociological and psychological tools in Christology.
