"Bishop Neill has wisely refrained from producing 'yet another introduction to the non-Christian religions'. Rather this is 'an attempt to understand them in their contemporary crises, and to make an assessment of them from a Christian standpoint'. The method is that of dialogue, and the aim is not to delineate other faiths from without, but to enter 'into the heart and spirit of another religion', yet without disloyalty to one's own, seeking what is positive in them, and the questions they may rightly ask of Christianity, as well as the pertinent questions about God and man which Christians may put to them. Chapters are devoted, not only to Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism, but also to the faith of contemporary primitive peoples, and to two modern Western 'gospels', Marxist Communism and Existentialism". -- front dust jacket blurb.

"Edited by Dr. Percy Dearmer, Canon of Westminster".
"The issue, indeed, is simple. The motives and methods of human life are not sufficiently moralised: it was to moralise the machinery of production, to limit the power of selfishness, that Wilberforce and Shaftesbury were working a century ago; and the whole world now enjoys what Christians then won: but in many ways industry and business, and family life, and civic and political activity, need further moralisation. Money -- the necessary use of tokens of exchange -- has been overlooked in its moral aspect (in spite of what Christ said about it) .... And, alas, there was one aspect of human life which was not understood a hundred years ago; and to this our present miseries are mainly due. The very word 'international' had then only just been coined by Jeremy Bentham. The whole conception of moralising international relations was in its infancy. So the world went on to its doom. So, because the nations and their representatives have not yet learnt the elements of international behaviour, we stand at this moment of writing on the brink of irretrievable disaster. It is in a very real sense true that only Christ can save the world from ruin to-day. Are we prepared to let his spirit save the nations from themselves ?" -- Preface, p. 10-11.

"For political and party reasons Christians from two countries at least were prevented by their national authorities from attending at Evanston. In these Resolutions from Evanston, however, a straight appeal is made to these Christians `behind the Iron Curtain'. as well as to all others, and the whole of the Report of Section IV on Evanston, is directed to them in every nation and country. We believe this Report and these Resolutions give a sane, balanced and judicious picture of the paths to stable peace. As such they should be studied and, we pray, followed so far as possible by church people in our lands where free thought and freedom of criticism is still a valued privilege. We trust the Report will be the basis for study by parochial groups". -- Foreword.

"By Cyril Garbett, Archbishop of York".
Includes bibliographical references.
"This book has been written in the conviction that mankind is now in the midst of one of the greatest crises in history. It is due to three causes: the rejection of Christian faith and morals, an uncompromising attack on Western civilisation, and the violent social and economic upheavals both in the West and the East. The gravity of the crisis has been intensified by the invention of atomic and other deadly weapons which, used in war, would destroy a great part of the civilised world. Civilised man stands today in dire danger, for he is on the verge of a precipice over which he may plunge into ruin from which there might be no recovery. .... An attempt is made in this book to give the Christian explanation of the world crisis, to show the reason for the failure of substitutes offered for Christianity, and to indicate the answer which the Church gives to man's most fundamental and spiritual needs. .... There is some ambiguity over my use of the word 'Church'. Sometimes it is intended to refer to the whole Church throughout the world, but more frequently it is used of the Church of England; for this one of three books, of which two have been already published, the first on 'The Claims of the Church of England', the second on 'Church and State', and this concluding volume is concerned with the attitude of the Church of England towards movements and problems outside its own borders". -- Intro.

"`Reader's Digest' has published an article alleging that the World Council of Churches (WCC) has drifted away from a goal of Christian unity and embraced a political agenda with Marxist overtones. An article published in February [2003] alleges some WCC leaders have been agents of the KGB, the former Soviet spy agency. WCC General Secretary Konrad Raiser said the 'Reader's Digest' article, entitled 'The Gospel According to Marx', was distorted and one-sided". "Rev. Alyson Barnett-Cowan, ecumenical assistant to the general secretary of the Canadian Anglican church, said the 'Reader's Digest' article `depends on distortion of fact'. ... Ms. Barnett-Cowan added that many vital aspects of the work of the WCC were not touched on by the article."

"The occasion of the book is the Mission to the Royal Air Force to be held in November, 1952. But it is hoped that its usefulness will be far more general. The world today is a dangerous place. The Christian Church is confronted by ruthless enemies and by an insidious, relentless ideology of atheistic materialism. No can afford to stand aside." -- Preface, p. iii.

Fisher -- [2] How can God be concerned with such an insignificant person as myself ? The untold millions of the world's inhabitants, and above all the immensities of the Universe, make the idea seem fantastic / John Whitworth Jones -- [3] How can Christian doctrines about miracles be true after all we learn from modern science ? / C.A. Coulson -- [4] If the world is in chaos after nearly 2,000 years of Christianity, has not Christianity failed ? / J.W.C.

Carey -- [6] Is suicide wrong in any circumstances ? / Lindsay Dewar -- [7] If two people are unhappily married, with no children, why does the Church oppose their divorce ? / Mrs. Geoffrey F. [i.e. Rosamond] Fisher -- [8] If the Church is against divorce, should it not take definite steps to make sure that the parties are suited before marrying them ? / P.M. Herbert -- [9] Should the Church ever interfere in politics, or should it confine itself to the spiritual sphere ? / J.W.C. Wand -- [10] Does Christianity condemn the 'profit motive' ? / J.V. Langmead Casserley -- [11] Is not compulsory sterilization justified to prevent reproduction of degenerate types ? / Roger W. Pilkington --[12] Is birth control really wrong ? / Hugh C. Warner -- [13] What is the Church of England view about saving mother or child in the period of gestation, if it is a case of choice ? / Lindsay Dewar -- [14] Is not Communism merely 'advanced socialism', and if so, why is it condemned ? / Mervyn Stockwood -- [15] Why does the Church, while condemning Communism, allow the Dean of Canterbury and other ministers to hold their offices ? / Gordon Crosse -- [16] Would Disestablishment of the Church of England be a good thing ? / Wilfred Lindsell -- [17] Why is there such disunity among Christians ? / Francis H. House -- [18] Is Pacifism more in line with Christ's teaching than armed resistance ? / Charles Smyth -- [19] Should Christians reject the use of the atom bomb in all circumstances as being unchristian and wicked ? / G.B.

Herbert -- [21] Is not compulsion in matters of worship wrong ? / C.K.N. Bardsley -- [22] Why is it wrong for unmarried people to have sexual intercourse ? / G.B. Bentley -- [23] If the father of an illegitimate child is a bachelor, is he not morally bound to marry the unmarried mother ? / Hugh C.

"Edited by Martin E. Marty and Dean G. Peerman".
"Defining revolution is as difficult as defining 'religion' or 'secularity' -- words, focal in manty debates in the previous volumes in this series. Most of the authors represented here give at least functional definitions appropriate to their arguments and some of them ... at least begin to be systematic in their attempts. ... Here it is important to note only some common threads running throughout these essays. For the Christian, revolution is born not merely in response to the empirical world but in the effort to follow the 'eschatological' note imparted by biblical witness. .... The second motif, is based on discontent with the world as it is, with the tradition that has been handed down. For Christians this involves acceptance of the churches' guilt in establishing the no longer humanizing status quo. .... That leaves one big question, and in some sense or other all the essays in this book deal with it: how bring aboout change ? As Christians or simply as men ? Violently or nonviolently ?" -- p. 10-11.
