Abraham's God - John w. Dickerson
- The Origin and History of the Beliefs of Jews, Christians, and Muslims
Over four billion people around the globe proclaim the same God and share the same deeply entangled beliefs. How can it be that two-thirds of the world population came to these same beliefs?
You may have been born a Jew, a Christian, or a Muslim, and then either pulled away from your faith, changed your faith, or continued in the faith of your family. At some point you probably even questioned your faith and your religion. I am not a scholar with a PhD, nor am I a priest or pastor. Rather, I am someone just like you who began asking questions about the faith into which I was born. I then spent over fifty years reading, studying, traveling, and even praying, looking to understand these three great religions of human existence. The result is Abraham's God. It is a history of the origins of the beliefs of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam-not as you were taught in your Sunday school, church, synagogue, or mosque, but as told in the sacred books and in the archeology, documents, and study of hundreds of experts in history, language, and religion.
There are four billion people with the same basic faith in the same God. Abraham's God tells you how that came to be.
