Will people of other faiths be 'saved' and to what extent should the response to this question shape Christian engagements with people of other faiths? Historically, the predominant answer to these questions has been that the person of another faith will not be saved and is therefore in need of conversion to Christianity for their salvation to be possible. Consequently, it has been understood to be the obligation ofChristian persons to convert people of other faiths. More recent theologies of religions for the past half century and more have sought to reconsider these approaches to soteriolog.Abstract: Argues that Christian understanding of salvation is not about a future in heaven but a way of life that shapes the present. This book also argues that such ways of thinking about salvation must begiven greater prominence when thinking about inter-faith questions.
