| Abstract: | Ever since the time of the primitive Church (St. Paul, Justin the Martyr) Christians have been concerned with the relationship of their religion to other religions. Hegel, Schleiermacher and Troeltsch treat this question under the rubric, 'die Absolutheit des Christentums'. This term simply means the unconditional, unlimited and exclusive significance of the Christian message, that is, God's self-manifestation for all times in Jesus Christ. |
