About this Quote

He argues that in Christianity, the liberty of believers is not just limited to political or social freedom, however also reaches freedom from worldly pursuits such as art and science. This is because, in Christianity, the supreme goal is to achieve redemption and eternal life in the afterlife, instead of seeking fulfillment through worldly achievements. Bauer suggests that this flexibility from worldly interests permits Christians to focus solely on their spiritual journey and relationship with God. This point of view challenges the standard view of flexibility and highlights the distinct aspects of Christianity as a religious beliefs.
