Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:Through (1) a reflection on the concept of “salvation” in the Western theological discourses concerning religious diversity, (2) an exploration of the comparable concept in Chinese religious context, and (3) an analysis of the prevalent Chinese Christian discourses on religious diversity, this study attempts to argue that contemporary Chinese Christian theology can and should articulate a multi-dimensional understanding of salvation(s).
