Klappentext zu „Christian Theology of Religions “
The book deals with the theological problem of the relation of other religions to Christianity. Can Christianity claim to be unique and universal, given the fact that other religions propose themselves as means of salvation? The method is theological, i.e., relying on Christian revelation and faith experience to understand and, theology being a normative science, to judge the truth value of the results of the history of religions. More specifically, it deals with the salvific value of other religions, the presence of Christ in them, the necessity of the Church for salvation and the salvation of other believers, and finally, the theological understanding of interreligious dialogue.

Pressezitat
«With this book...the eminent Indian theologian Mariasusai Dhavamony makes a worthy contribution to Lang's Studies in the Intercultural History of Christianity series. [...] We leave the book grateful that we have been able to share one's scholar's theological pilgrimage. We may be excited, too, by the ongoing challenge presented by this book to find a Christian theology of religions truly adequate to the needs of the twenty-first century.» (Kenneth Cracknell, Theology Today)« Christian Theology of Religions' is a welcome addition to the ongoing debate among theologians about the salvific value of other religions, given the traditional claims of Christianity of being the only revealed religion. The book is the result of many years of reflection and writing by a well-known theologian especially competent on the topic of religions, phenomenology of religions and the theology of religions.» (S. Karotemprel, Bibliographia Missionaria)
