by Jacques Dupuis (Author)
In this magisterial book, Jacques Dupuis brings together a lifetime of study, reflection, and experience in both Europe and Asia to outline a significant shift in Christian theological understanding of world religious pluralism. The premise of Toward a Christian Theology of Religious Pluralism is that the question has shifted from whether â oesalvationâ occurs for members of other religious traditions to how in Godâ (TM)s plan these traditions mediate salvation to their members.
Written with scholarly balance and theological sure-footedness, Toward a Christian Theology of Religious Pluralism is a masterwork, a book that is destined to become the classic scholarly analysis of the most important question facing Christian theology in a world of religious diversity.
