Award-winning scholar John Renard illuminates the similarities as well as the differences between Islam and Christianity through a clear exploration of four major dimensions-historical, creedal, institutional, and ethical and spiritual. Throughout, the book features comparisons between concrete elements such as creedal statements, prayer texts, and writings from major theologians and mystics. It also includes a glossary of technical theological terms. For western readers in particular, this balanced, authoritative work overturns some common stereotypes about Islam, especially those that have emerged in the decade since September 11, 2001. 606 $aChristianity and other religions$xIslam 606 $aIslam$xDoctrines 606 $aIslam$xRelations$xChristianity 606 $aTheology, Doctrinal 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChristianity and other religions$xIslam. 615 0$aIslam$xDoctrines. 615 0$aIslam$xRelations$xChristianity. 615 0$aTheology, Doctrinal. 676 $a297.2/83 700 $aRenard$b John$f1944-$01026778 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463138303321 996 $aIslam and Christianity$92441881 997 $aUNINA
