One God by Peter Cotterell
An exploration of how Christianity relates to other religions - essential reading for those living in a pluralist society. Do all the world's religions focus on the same God? If not, where do the differences lie and do they matter? What is taught by Hinduism, Buddhism or the traditional religions on issues such as suffering? What about the great monotheistic religions - is Allah the same as Yaweh? Peter Cotterel argues that this is an issue Christians can be completely sure on: 'In Christianity, God has revealed Himself in a very precise way... The gods of the other religions do not fit into this tight description'. One God is a fascinating exposition of what Christians believe and why, and a plea for clear thinking on the issues of understanding other religions and how Christian assurance must always be tempered with Christian humility. -Editorial Review.
