Book Description
Excerpt from The Religions of the World: An Outline of the Great Religious Systems The following conclusions will probably occur to the reader: (i) 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; 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. Jesus shall reign where'er the sun doth his successive journeys run. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
