Description

The interest of this book is to write on the historical Jesus. It makes no claim to be either speculative or dogmatic. All what I have written in this book are known to Christian religious specialists. But they would not make it available to a much wider audience, yet the encounter of the world religions is a major fact of our time.

The differences between Islam, Christianity and Judaism are not on formal religious doctrines but on the conception of God. The concept of God represents the point of division between these three great related religions. This is very fundamental and basic.

This, in a nutshell, is how Christian doctrines of the concept of God was formulated, which is very different from Islamic and Jewish concept of God which were formulated by the prophets of God and in their Holy books. The Christian concept of God has made an average Christian to believe in Jesus of faith, a mythology created by St Paul rather than Jesus Christ, the anointed king of the Jews and the descendant of David, who was born, lived and preached in Palestine in 7BC - 64 A D.
