Who Can Be Saved?

Throughout history, millions have lived and died without hearing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Despite vigorous missionary efforts, large populations of the world today have never been evangelized. And now religious pluralism has set up shop on the high street. The question 'Who can be saved?' forces itself on the minds of Christians like never before.  
  
\* Is there a wideness in God's mercy?  
  
\* Does God reveal himself in a way that invites all people to respond positively in saving faith?  
  
\* How should we view the religions we live alongside?  
  
\* Is inter-religious dialogue profitable and desirable or to be avoided?  
  
These are big questions requiring thoughtful care. In this intriguing study, Terrance L. Tiessen reassesses the questions of salvation and the role of religions and offers a proposal that is biblically rooted, theologically articulated and missiologically sensitive. This is a book that will set new terms for the discussion of these important issues.Read less
