Comparative Religions: Practical Apologetics for the Real World (Teacher Guide) (World Religions & Cults) (World Religions and Cults)

The vital resource for grading all assignments from the Comparative Religions course, which includes:

An examination of over 50 world religious views, always with a focus on the Word of God as truth. Weekly connections to the World Religions and Cults Generalized Timeline Chart with a church and denominational breakdown.

OVERVIEW: A world religion is a belief system that attempts to explain some aspect of reality and often how the physical and spiritual world operates; and yet it is independent of another world religion (though they often have different sects, cults, or denominations). A cult is typically defined as a religious offshoot of a major world religion that no longer holds to the core tenets of that world religion. This course cannot examine every world religion, cult, sect, or system, but quite a few have been selected from different belief systems, and these will be critiqued. Note: Because this course is very reading intensive, a teacher might evaluate specific chapters they would prefer to cover, or perhaps adjust the schedule provided to cover a two-year period.

FEATURES: The calendar provides daily lessons with clear objectives and guided readings.
