  Metaphysics and History
Troeltsch’s ambivalence toward Ranke may be understandable in light of the dual reputation the latter enjoyed, but this was also typical of his reaction to the imposing figure of Hegel.
Troeltsch’s rendering of the Geisteswissenschaften as the historical-ethical sciences speaks to the life implications of historical study, but his understanding of history as constitutive of consciousness is a precursor to the metaphysical perspective of Heidegger and Gadamer, both of whom ironically resurrect Hegel.
Troeltsch was convinced of the difference between the natural sciences and the human studies, and in no wise did he seek to establish methods for predicting the future.

Troeltsch thought that what he called "moral awareness" is a faculty available to all as an abiding element of the human constitution.
Troeltsch's point could be said to have been confirmed by our knowledge in the 21st century of other major cultural groups.
Troeltsch, with typical modesty, admitted that he had been unable to overcome all the challenges he had come across and had therefore been unable to come up with a comprehensive theory of history.

 Boston Collaborative Encyclopedia of Western Theology: Ernst Troeltsch
Troeltsch does not directly consider, given the self-generative quality of religion, whether a social context must always be an amenable environment for a new factor to survive and flourish.
Troeltsch’s understanding of the history of Christianity is marked by a philosophical idealism that exists in an unresolved tension with the particular expressions of the Church in the time and space.
Troeltsch admired the Mediaeval Church and the achievement of Thomas Aquinas.

 Kierkegaard and Radical Discipleship 3 (Eller)
Troeltsch was in no sense a socioeconomic determinist; his basic position seems to have been that ideology has sociological manifestations no less than that sociological conditions determine ideology.
Troeltsch suggested that in the course of their history at least some sects do tend to change their nature and lose the purity of their primitive sectarianism.
Troeltsch's analysis seems eminently superior to that of the hypersociologists: the ecclesiological changes so readily apparent in Protestant history are not indicative of any dynamic principle within the typology itself but rather a breakdown and realignment of the whole typology in the face of a drastically changed world.

Troeltsch was also ignored, or treated as a “neoliberal,” by the advocates of Liberation Theology as it played out in Latin America in the 1960s and 1970s, the belated fruit of the Catholic revisionist Maurice  Blondel and the Marxist revisionist Antonio Gramsci.
Troeltsch was convinced that the dogmatic theologians of his tradition were ignoring the situation, and that those who tried to face every problem by simply reclaiming “the spirit of love,” as advocated by several post—dogmatic reformers, were not intellectually serious.
Troeltsch was attracted to the sectarian desires for a “pure faith” and a “righteous society,” but he concluded that only the great church—types of the Catholic and Reformed traditions could sustain both the Church and the various spheres of the common life.

 Why Troeltsch? Why today? Theology for the 21st Century
Ernst Troeltsch died 70 years ago, and his theology was shortly thereafter declared dead as well.
Troeltsch does not provide us with a solution to the problems that postmodernism both reflects and raises, but he can help puncture the pretensions of those varieties (and they are many) that pretend to have left the Enlightenment behind while continuing to perpetuate some of its most unfortunate errors.
Troeltsch, by way of contrast, was well versed in the social science of his time, and sought to make careful use of it in his theological, political and moral judgments.

 Ernst Troeltsch Biography | Encyclopedia of World Biography
The German theologian, historian, and sociologist Ernst Troeltsch (1865-1923), through his utilization of the objective methods of modern scholarship, contributed to the sociology of religion and the problems of historicism.
Troeltsch stated that the Christian ideal could not be "realized within this world apart from compromise" and that consequently Christian history was "the story of a constantly renewed search for this compromise, and a fresh opposition to this spirit of compromise."
Troeltsch was concerned with historicism not simply as a scholar but as a deeply religious man as well.

Troeltsch was not a social scientist but a theologian attempting to relate types of religious experience to the varieties of social teachings with which they might be correlated.
Nevertheless, the presence of the mystical type at the outset of Troeltsch's discussion suggests that he was actually using the terms in a conceptually different operation from that to which church-sect is usually put in organizational analysis.
Weber and Troeltsch were working on different, although related, questions; Troeltsch understood Weber's concept of the ideal-type, capitalized on what Weber termed its "transiency," and hence made church, sect, and mysticism work for his own purposes.

Ernst Troeltsch's essay on socialism presents a summary account of his views on the prospects for a socialist economic order within the Weimar Republic.
Troeltsch attempts to formulate a compromise that incorporates the proposals of both social conservatism and communism.
Such a compromise, he insists, is possible on the basis of a realistic assessment of socialism supported by "an act of faith in the future" based upon explicitly religious resources.

Troeltsch saw modernity emerging with the Enlightenment and, unlike Weber, thought the ideas of both Luther and Calvin remained largely medieval in cast.
Troeltsch also was interested in the role of natural law doctrines in the development of Christianity.
Troeltsch's theological commitments made it difficult for him to dispense entirely with Christianity's universal truth claims, and he grappled throughout his life with the problem of Christianity's historical relativity.

Ernst Troeltsch is a classical diagnostician of modern culture.
Having become sensitive to the fractures and contradictions of modern society, he drew a picture of the present in which the experience of crises at the turn of the century was characteristic.
As the result of his historical and sociological analyses, Troeltsch considered the processes of growing pluralization to be irrevocable.

 Ernst Troeltsch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ernst Troeltsch (February 17, 1865 – February 1, 1923) was a German Protestant theologian and writer on philosophy of religion and philosophy of history, and an influential figure in German thought before 1914.
His work was a synthesis of a number of strands, drawing on Albrecht Ritschl, Max Weber's conception of sociology, and the Neo-Kantians of the Baden school.
While religious thinking in the days of the Weimar Republic moved away from his direction, Troeltsch is still important in relation with the sociology of religion.

 Soft Difference, by Mirslav Volf
Following in the footsteps of sociologist Max Weber, Troeltsch developed a very influential distinction between "church" and "sect" (and added his own third category of "mystic," which I will leave aside here because my interest is in Christian community).
Troeltsch was no social determinist; after all he believed that the "idea" of Christianity gave rise to all three social forms-church, sect, and mystic-in which the Christian faith was lived out through the centuries.
Notice the implications of Troeltsch's thesis about the interrelation of Christian communities' social forms and their doctrines and practices for the topic of gospel and culture.

 Benedict XVI teaches that Christianity may not be the true religion...
  Troeltsch was a complete apostate who held that Christianity is God’s true religion in Europe, but that God’s true religion is different in Asia, Africa, etc.   According to Troeltsch, Christianity is God’s face turned toward Europe, whereas Hinduism is God’s face turned toward India, etc.
Truth and Tolerance, Benedict XVI acknowledges this belief of Troeltsch and explains how Troeltsch didn’t hold Christianity to be the universally true religion:

 Yale Center for Faith & Culture in the News
But I am quite sure that 1 Peter bursts not only Niebuhr’s five neat models of how Christ relates to culture, but also Troeltsch’s distinction between church and sect.
[7] A careful reader will, however, discover in 1 Peter not only a “compiler,” but a creative thinker in his own right, capable of integrating the social features which Troeltsch tells us we should find clearly separated and assigned to different social types of religious communities.
The designation of Christians as paroikoi and parepidemoi (1 Pet 1:1; 2:11) implies, without a doubt, a “clear distance in relation to society, a distance from its values and ideals, from its institutions and politics.” [8] What does the distance mean, however?
