Book Synopsis Christianity and Non-Christian Religions Compared by : Edward A. Marshall
Download or read book Christianity and Non-Christian Religions Compared written by Edward A. Marshall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and Non-Christian Religions Compared: Containing 800 Library References to Facilitate Further Study In this present age of seeming uncertainty in spiritual verities, and of exalting the heathen religions to the position of equality with Christianity, it becomes necessary that we examine their actual teachings and compare them with those of the Bible. This is made doubly necessary since the priests and pundits of some of the non Christian religions have begun to visit England and America to promulgate their Oriental philosophy and metaphysics. Their listeners, not having a knowledge of the actual character of these systems, or of the saving grace of God in Christ, are sometimes caught by their subtle sophistry, and led, step by step, into very absurd beliefs. One of the most striking examples of this is seen in the transplanting of Hinduism into Christian lands, under the non de plume of Christian Science. The strongest and most satisfactory way of learning the rela tive value of the teachings of these various religious systems is to study them comparatively. This is an exceedingly difficult task, as it requires a large amount of time and patience to search through scores of volumes containing much that is tiresome and uninteresting. Then, too, it would doubtless be unwise for the average person to spend the money necessary to purchase the re quired number of books to get a comprehensive knowledge of these world religions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Non-Christian Religions of the World The progress of Islam was slow until Mahomet cast aside the precepts of toleration, and adopted an aggressive, militant policy. Then it became rapid. The motives which animated the armies of Islam were mixed - material and spiritual. Without the truths contained in the system, success would have been impossible, but neither without the sword would the religion have been planted in Arabia, nor beyond. The alternatives offered to conquered peoples were Islam, the Sword, or Tribute. The drawbacks and attractions of the system are examined. The former were not such as to deter men of the world from embracing the faith. The sexual indulgences sanctioned by it are such as to make Islam "the Easy way." The spread of Islam was stayed whenever military success was checked. The Faith was meant for Arabia and not for the world, hence it is constitutionally incapable of change or development The degradation of woman hinders the growth of freedom and civilization under it. Christianity is contrasted in the means used for its propagation, the methods it employed in grappling with and overcoming the evils that it found existing in the world, in the relations it established between the sexes, in its teaching with regard to the respective duties of the civil and spiritual powers, and, above all, in its redeeming character, and then the conclusion come to that Christianity is Divine in its origin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Light of the World: A Brief Comparative Study of Christianity and Non-Christian Religions Our book for the coming year, The Light of the World, is published by the Central Committee. Its author is Mr. Robert E. Speer, who deals in an attractive and sympathetic way with the great religions of the world. No one is better fitted for the task, and Mr. Speer has in these six chapters presented fairly these Eastern faiths and shown clearly their inadequacy to human need. The testimony of eminent men who have come out from these religions into the true Light cannot be disputed or discounted. The presence in our own country of certain men and women who are giving incomplete and incorrect state ments of non-christian faiths, which are sometimes accepted by American women, makes this volume especially valuable at this time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religions of the World It has been suggested that a list of books Should be appended for the sake of those who desire to pursue the fascinating study of comparative religion, but though this would be easy it seems unnecessary. The books which would suit one class of readers would be quite unsuitable for another class. It may, indeed, be well to point out here that, just as the best way to become acquainted with Christianity is to read the Bible, so those who would know the religions of the East, at anything like first hand, should read the Sacred Books of the East (clarendon Press), which have been so well translated into English in our day. This, however, would be too serious an undertaking for the average man. Failing this best way, there is no better series to read than that of the non-christian Religious Systems, published by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. The student of these manuals will find in the foot-notes references to the. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of Christianity Among the Religions of the World The fourth chapter was prepared at the invitation of the Com mittee of the International Council of Unitarian and other Liberal Religious Thinkers, which held its second meeting at Amsterdam in September, 1903. A few passages in the section on Hindu thought have been expanded, in order to bring out more clearly the contrasts between the fundamental conceptions of religious experience in the Indian and the Hebrew developments. In tracing the barest outlines of the succession of faiths, and endeavouring to estimate their relative spiritual significance, it is inevitable that those who speak from the outside should lay a different emphasis on the same facts compared to those who speak from within. Just as the art, the poetry, the ethical types, of the higher races vary, so also must the specific expressions of faith. The time has not yet come when the East and the West can see eye to eye. But we are daily learning new lessons of sympathy and reverence. To help, however imperfectly, to enforce this teaching, is the purport of the following pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religions of the World: An Outline of the Great Religious Systems The following conclusions will probably occur to the reader: (1) There is a measure of good in each of the great religions; (2) It is not true that one religion is as good as another; (3) The Christian religion alone is altogether good; (4) The false systems cannot be regarded as progressive steps toward the true; (5) The true religion derives little or nothing from the false It gives a light to every age; it gives, but borrows none (6) The false philosophies which are from time to time advanced against the Christian religion are nearly or quite all borrowed from the erroneous sys tems of the past; (7) Christianity is the absolute re ligion; that is, it is wholly free from error and contains all good; (8) It alone reveals the true God (9) It alone presents the ideal man; (10) It alone suggests a plan for the reconciliation of guilty man and offended God; (i I) It is the only moral system; (12) It is fair, there fore, to regard it as final; (i 3) It is destined to be the universal religion.
