An anthology of ten key excerpts from the writings of Samuel Zwemer (1867-1952), the leading missionary to Muslims and a prominent missiologist. Roger S. Greenway has compiled and edited ten of Zwemer's best chapters, all taken from books long out of print, and has added an introduction providing an overview of Zwemer's life and work. "Because his insights are not dated," writes Greenway, "Zwemer needs to be heard again." Islam and the Cross makes available "some of Zwemer's insights regarding Islam, the basic differences between Islam and Christianity, and a sense of love for Muslim people and a passion for their salvation."

What do Moslems believe about Jesus? What are the deep significances attached to the names they assign Jesus in the Koran? What does the Koran teach about Christ's life, his deeds, his teachings, his crucifixion and his Coming Again? And how does any Christian reach a Moslem with the truth of who Christ really is without alienating them?All this and much more is answered in this scholarly, yet very readable work by a Christian missionary to the Moslem World. Samuel Zwemer was a missionary to Arabia from 18901913, and then served in Egypt until 1929. Loving the Mohammedans passionately and knowing their religion thoroughly, with an almost perfect command of Arabic and an accurate knowledge of the Koran, he was known as the lion-hearted missionary who confounded the Arabs out of their own scriptures with the truth of Christ. Samuel Zwemer worked tirelessly for an enlargement of the missionary force to the Moslem world. After returning to the USA, he taught at Princeton Theological Seminary until 1952.
This is a book of pictures and stories for big children and small grown-up folks; for all who love Sinbad the sailor and his strange country. It is a topsy-turvy book; there is no order about the chapters; and you can begin to read it anywhere. It is intended to give a bird's-eye view to those who cannot take birds' wings. The stories are not as good as those of the Arabian Nights but the morals are better--and so are the pictures. Moreover the stories are true. You must not skip any of the chapters or the pictures but you may the preface, if you like.
