Jesus: A Savior Or The Savior? Religious Pluralism in Christian Perspective
Professor Aldwinckle’s basic theme is to argue for the necessity of going beyond the science and phenomenology of religion to deal with the truth-claims of various forms of religious faith.
Aldwinckle makes a substantial case against modern tendencies toward religious syncretism, and a convincing case for the uniqueness of the Christian faith. Against the charge that such claims for Christ entail religious imperialism, arrogance, or exclusivism, Aldwinckle makes a strong case for living nearer the Spirit of the One whose unique role we affirm and profess.
Russell Aldwinckle is Professor Emeritus at McMaster Divinity School, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
