Fantasy of Salvation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781999884741)

Throughout the recorded history of humanity, religious discrimination, hatred, exploitation, bloodshed and terrorism, have been prevalent, while love, peace and unity have been difficult to come by. These problems are exacerbated by the contradictory and exclusive doctrines of salvation propagated by certain religions. While Christianity teaches that Jesus Christ is the son of God only through whom human beings would obtain salvation, other religions deny that claim and insist that salvation comes only as prescribed in their own scriptures or through the observance of the tenets of their faiths. So, does humanity need salvation, and does any religion provide the route to it?Fantasy of Salvation is a meticulous study of the doctrine of salvation and the means of its achievement in the world's major religions, especially the Abrahamic faiths. In his exploration of the central claims in these faiths, author Dr. Law Emeka Modeme answers with scriptural authority many fundamental questions, including: -Whether humankind needs a messiah, and who that might be.-Whether salvation comes through Jesus Christ, the Jewish covenants and law, the prescriptions of the Holy Quran, or the tenets of any other religion.-Whether there exist devil and demons from whom human beings need deliverance, -Whether there will be an apocalypse followed by eternal reward in heaven for believers and eternal punishment in Hell for unbelievers.Dr. Modeme thoroughly examines the Christian, Jewish and Islamic salvation claims relative to historical, philosophical, and other religious perspectives. The results of his examination are profound and broad, and his arguments sound and compelling. Anyone who has ever asked or entertained tough questions about the theology of apocalypse and salvation will find in this book satisfying vindications of their curiosity. Scepticism of archaic ideas is one of the hallmarks of our species: Does humanity need salvation in the religious sense, or does it need salvation from antiquated and unfounded tenets of religion that keep us ignorant, disconnected from God, and in constant fear and conflict?
