Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Published in Conjunction with OMF. Buddhism has existed for over 2,500 years. Like Christianity it has faced persecution. While it started as mainly an Asian religion it is now beginning to have considerable growth in the west and is the fastest growing religion in Australia and has some two thousand temples in the USA. If you compare Christianity and Buddhism you will see many contrasts. For example, a Buddhist would not believe in a supreme God who created the universe or in fact anything supernatural. They believe in making merit. Christianity talks about communicating the gospel of a loving God who gives mercy, hope and an exchanged life. This guide will help you overcome the hurdles and communicate the gospel in a way that Buddhists can understand. So whether you are travelling, or meet a Buddhist in your workplace or next door, this book will be an invaluable tool in this crosscultural age. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Softcover/Paperback. Condición: Fair. This book is a brief (64 page) primer for Christian missionaries headed to southwest Asia to try to convert Buddhists there. It was written by an Australian missionary with many years' experience in Thailand, and many of the chapters of the book originated as articles in various religious publications in the region. The first part of the book talks about Buddhism and how it came to predominate Asia and how it makes its inroads in the West: It does not seek to replace the native religions per se, but rather it complements and then absorbs them. The book then puts into some stark relief differences between Christian scriptures and core Buddhist doctrine (as well as Buddhist scholarship). The stark differences don't receive a lot of emphasis when you're reading popular Buddhist books (like Start Here Now), but, then again, you don't get a lot of the heavy duty Christian scholarship in most church services, either. At any rate, an informative bit of counterpoint to straightforward Buddhist-themed literature, but a bit apocalyptic on the march of Buddhism to take over the world.…
