Items related to Islam: A Challenge to Faith
At a time when popular theology favours a syncretic approach to the study of world religions, it is sobering to reflect that only a few decades have passed since many in the Christian Church were advocating missions of aggressive evangelism against other faiths. At the forefront of one such 'crusade' against Islam, strode the American, Samuel M. Zwemmer, whose works are a legacy of the uncompromising position adopted by the many post-Victorian evangelists vis a vis the Muslim world. 'The Churches of Christendom are at last awakening to the fact that one of the great unsolved missionary problems of the Twentieth Century is the evangelization of the Mohammedan world', proclaims the author in the Preface to this work, first published in 1907.This reprinted edition will be welcomed as an opportunity to reappraise such a work in the light of modern thought. Also of interest to students of comparative religion will be the wealth of statistical information, including maps, tables and related data.
