The listing, CAN EVANGELICALS LEARN FROM WORLD RELIGIONS? has ended.
McDermott's primary thesis is this: Evangelicals can learn from the world's religions. He offers chapters on the historical encounter between evangelicals and the religions of the world; the definition of "revelation"; biblical "suggestions" on the world religions (e.g., God-fearing Gentiles and pagans honored by various prophets and by Jesus); theological considerations (typology, the "scandal of exclusivity," covenants); an account of ancient Christian theologians and their views of the world religions in light of the ascendancy of Christ; Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism and Islam in which McDermott writes explicitly of what he has learned about his own faith, Christianity, from these religions, and ways in which he has come to understand more fully his understanding of the uniqueness of Christ.
