In our increasingly pluralistic society, as the peoples of the world come to the West, it is essential to be informed about the major world religions and to have a convenient informational tool for quick reference. This new addition to the popular "Zondervan Charts" series provides a helpful resource for students to compare and contrast fourteen major world religions. "Charts of World Religions" explores those areas of common concern that are similar in the various religions, such as origins, the nature of deity or ultimate spiritual reality, the source of spiritual truth, the nature of the human predicament, and the nature of salvation or enlightenment or liberation. While finding areas of similarity in these fundamental spiritual questions, the book also contrasts the divergent answers of each of the world religions. The book contains more than ninety charts and is divided into six major sections: Prolegomena; Comparison of World Religions; Classical Religions; Western-Middle Eastern Religions; Eastern Religions; and Indigenous Religions.
