The World's Religions

This comprehensive volume focuses on the world's religions and the changes they have undergone as they become more global and diverse in form. It explores the religions of the world not only in the regions with which they have been historically associated, but also looks at the new cultural and religious contexts in which they are developing. It considers the role of migration in the spread of religions by examining the issues raised for modern societies by the increasing interaction of different religions. The volume also addresses such central questions as the dynamics of religious innovation which is evidenced in the rise and impact of new religious and new spirituality movements in every continent.

A comprehensive investigation of the Qur'an, Bible, Islam and Christianity, revealing harmony between the principal teachings of the Books, but disharmony between the religious traditions. Suppose the Qur'an taught that: Jesus is the Messiah who was born of the virgin Mary, taught the Gospel, healed the sick, raised the dead, was crucified, died, and was resurrected; Salvation is a gift from God to all who believe, repent and ask God's forgiveness; Muslims are to believe the Gospel and other revelation contained in the Bible, believe that Jesus is the Messiah, receive guidance from the Holy Spirit, resist the temptations from Satan, avoid the condemnation of hell, and cultivate a personal re...

“VOCE MEA AD DOMINUM CLAMAVI”: FRANCIS, THE BROTHERS, AND THE ANGUISH OF SOLITUDE

Our aim in this work will be that of discovering the true nature of Francis’ inner anguish, the solitude he was bound to suffer at seeing the brothers taking a different course from the one he cherished. At the same time, however, we shall try to understand what the brothers also were feeling regarding Francis, and why they also were convinced that the way forward was bound to be slightly or radically different from the original proposal of the founder. Our aim is that of taking into consideration what the sources have to say regarding the last years and moments of Francis’ life, and present them within the context of events unfolding in the Order, which were already pointers at future choices and directions that the Order would take in the decades immediately following upon the death of the founder.

Judaism, Christianity, and Islam'are these faiths really that different? Take a journey of discovery as we compare God-inspired testimonies from the Tanakh, the Christian Bible, and the Koran.

God told one of the prophets that His people perish for lack of knowledge. This statement is so very true, even to this day. Let us explore our common beliefs together. This book is meant to be a study guide as well as a bridge for peace. We must all strive for harmony, or we shall go before God with our brother's blood on our hands.

Let me sum up my perception on what went wron...
