Post-modernism?
September 24th, 2009
Modernism specifically refers to the movement of man away from the idea of an all powerful and personal creator God as the foundation for all. Modernity started with the “enlightenment” in science, art, literature, religion and society. This “enlightenment” was a rejection of God and an assumption to a man-centered approach to everything.
It has been said that we have entered a post modern society. It is not so in the area of philosophy, where world-views reside. There, you will find that most still reject a personal creator God as the foundation for art, science, or society, and by definition are still modernists!
When you boil it all down… it is still the same old trick… As Satan said to Eve in the garden, “You will not surely die.” This is the catalyst of modernism.
So in essence, modernism is religion, or man asserting his sovereignty above God’s… all the while, not realizing that God’s sovereignty is eternal, and man’s is temporal and fatal!
