This brief and concise handbook on "World Religions" will examine
and survey the history and origins of seven non-Christian religions
that are vastly different from Christianity in many ways. These
religions that will be investigated include: Hinduism, Jainism,
Buddhism, Confucianism, Zoroastrianism, Sikhism, and Islam. There
are many so-called "Christian" religions that exist in our world
today, such as, The Jehovah Witnesses, Mormonism, Christian
Science, The Way International, and the World-wide Church of God.
In these so called "Christian" religions, Jesus is regarded as a
central figure. The reason that this examination is necessary is
that, in all of these seven non-Christian religions, Jesus Christ
is NOT a central part of their teaching or doctrine. At most, as in
Islam, Jesus is regarded as just a prophet, a good moral teacher,
or as just another historical figure for most non-Christian
religions. In light of this reason, we feel it is a worthy
investigation to examine and survey these seven religions in which
Christ has no special significant part to play. This concise study
will examine the nature and origins of these seven world religions,
their basic doctrines and beliefs, and will look at their
historical roots, and the results of their impact upon the world.
Also, we will examine "how" their central teachings and doctrines
differ from historical Christianity. It is the authors hope that
the reader will gain some new insights as to the religious nature
of man, and see how the search for real meaning and true religion
has manifested itself in many different forms throughout history.
This handbook is a MUST READ for everyone seeking understanding of
how Christianity is uniquely different from these other seven major
world religions.
