In a world with so many religions, why Jesus?
We are living in a time when you can believe anything, as long as you do not claim it
to be true. In the name of "tolerance," our postmodern culture embraces everything
from Eastern mysticism to New Age spirituality. But as Ravi Zacharias points out, such
unquestioning acceptance of all things spiritual is absurd. All religions, plainly and
simply, cannot be true.
Jesus Among Other Gods provides the answers to the most fundamental claims about
Christianity, such as:
- Aren't all religions fundamentally the same?
- Was Jesus who He claimed to be?
- Can one study the life of Christ and demonstrate conclusively that He was and is the way, the truth, and the life?
In each chapter, Zacharias considers a unique claim that Jesus made and then
contrasts the truth of Jesus with the founders of Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism with
compelling insight and passionate conviction. In addition to an impressive breadth of
reading and study, he shares his personal journey from despair and meaninglessness
to his discovery that Jesus is who He said He is.
"In Jesus Among Other Gods, Ravi Zacharias demonstrates that he is one of the most
intellectually gifted as well as spiritually sensitive writers of today's leading apologists
for the Christian faith. Zacharias brings alive the unique power of the claims of Jesus
about himself and the utter relevance of his message today for the human condition."
