Many gods, many lords

Christianity encounters world religions

Edición de la obra Many gods, many lords

In a readable and concise overview, Clendenin examines the three paradigms that Christians use to construe the interrelationships between the world religions: exclusivism, inclusivism, and pluralism. Focusing on the attractive but problematic position of pluralism, he finds its primary arguments lacking in philosophic and Christian credibility. Left with exclusivism and inclusivism, he concludes with a careful study of what the Old Testament and New Testament have to say on the dual Christian truths of the universal salvific love of God and the particularity of his grace in Christ.
