TH3455 The Uniqueness of Christ and the Theology of Religions<br />
Who is Jesus Christ for us today? Today we ask this question more aware than<br />
ever of our religiously plural world. What is the difference Jesus Christ still makes<br />
in such a world? What role does the diversity of religious expression play in the<br />
church’s understanding of Jesus Christ and salvation? How do other religious traditions<br />
view the reality of Jesus Christ? How should Christians view other religious<br />
traditions? What is the relationship of Jesus Christ to debates about the spiritual<br />
life and the nature of religion? The approach of the course is both analytical<br />
and comparative.<br />
