[εις επαινον δοξης αυτου] New comment on Ideas Have Consequences, citation #1.

Daniel Friess has left a new comment on your post "Ideas Have Consequences, citation #1":

Thanks for your comments. I don't think that any of us claim to be authorities on any of these issues, but i think our discussing it is beneficial and partially what the edification of the body entails.
I'll try to clarify my statement a bit:
I don't believe there is any disputing that God is the objective truth, but i'm coming to look at objectivity as something trivial when we're talking about human perspective. Even the Word of God, God's special revelation to man, which cannot said to be subjective since it is "of no private interpretation" is only perceived by men individually, subjectively and is only effectual when it is appropriated by the individual.
I do believe God's meaning is intrinsically tied to Himself, but it does not seem that it is posited objectively. There is no objective salvation, there is no objective definition, even metaphysically, of how a relationship with God looks.
While God is certainly "objective," it seems that our only access to Him is "subjective," by our own person through the man Jesus Christ.
