This illustrated general reference book features information relating to three significant but less familiar areas of study: world ideologies, Church History, and Christianity's inherent 'Jewishness.' World Ideologies: If all religions were equally true and it was of no consequence whatsoever as to what one believed, then the Christian faith would be negated. When viewed in the context of fourteen major world ideologies, however, the unique value of its message becomes self-evident. Church History: The foundation of the Western cultural heritage have, to a great extent, been shaped by the convoluted history of the Church. An overview of this subject enables believers to come to terms with the past and face the future with greater confidence. Jewish Origins: Like a magnificent tapestry, the Hebrew tradition delights the senses and feeds the soul. It offers not only refreshing insights, but a compelling ancient beauty. Over ninety original line drawings set the stage for a correlation of New Testament principles with the history, worship, customs, calendar and language of the Jews.
