Conclusion: Postmodernism poses a serious threat to the church because it adheres to the principle that truth is subjective and determined by individuals which is a person’s personal right, there is no absolute and final truth because everything is relative, meaning that the Word of God is no longer absolute truth and Jesus is not the only truth, only Saviour. This means that Postmodernism is contrary to the Bible which is a source of teaching for Christianity
