An insightful exploration into Christianity

today-written especially for Jews.

For many Jews, discerning the differences

among various Christian groups is perplexing. As a result, they

are stuck with an outdated understanding of Christian beliefs,

practices and attitudes, especially with regard to their

relationship with Judaism, Jews and Israel.

But Christian views are evolving,

particularly since the landmark 1965 Catholic statement known

as Nostra Aetate that forever changed the landscape of

Jewish-Christian relations. This intriguing, brief introduction

focuses on the changing Christian currents within the Roman

Catholic Church, Protestant denominations, nondenominational

megachurches and the emergent church. It also explores the

essential doctrines that undergird most Christian belief,

including sin, salvation, Jesus as the Messiah, the Second

Coming and Christian Zionism-and compares them to the

Jewish understanding of these issues.

Designed to answer Jews’ common

questions about Christianity, this enlightening overview is

also an excellent interfaith resource that will help all

readers understand the changing Christian climate and what its

implications are for the future of Judaism and interfaith

relations.
