How does orthodox Biblical Christianity differ from other faiths? What can we learn from these other faiths? This book discusses Catholicism, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Unitarianism, Jehovah's Witness, Christian Science and Mormonism.

This book compares 20 worldviews, faiths and religions and how they compare to Christianity. Included are Buddhism, Mormonism, Humanism, Witchcraft, Jehovah's Witnesses, Post-Modernism, Evolutionism, Islam and more.

So What’s the Difference? By Fritz Ridenour is a fascinating book that compares Christianity to twenty faiths and religions. It first discusses Christian beliefs in general and then the belief in detail and then points out how it compares to Christianity. Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy are discussed separately. Some of the major religions include Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism , Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormonism and New Age Movement and others. It helps you “recognize the real difference between the Christian faith and other viewpoint and make it easier for you to explain and share your faith with others.”

This book is a great help for a new Christian who feels overwhelmed when reading the Book of Romans for the first time.
The author skillfully walks the Roman Road at a gentle pace. He shows us that Christianity is what Jesus did for us, not what we do for Jesus.

This book is just ok. its about the world views ad christianity. but in a childs book. not a interesting topic! i was bored when i read it age 6 and up

This is something like an update of kingdom of the cults. The author describes Christianity from an evangelical, biblical Christian point of view. The section on Roman Catholicism does not “any Catholic sources and is weak as a result. He does point out some new movements so it updates for more recent movements such as the International Churches of Christ.

I initially dug this out of my box of books because a couple of Jehovah's Witnesses came to the door. After I read that chapter, I went back and started from beginning. It's informative without being too scholastic. It doesn't tell you how to witness to the other religions or cults, but you do get a sense of what you're up against if you do meet someone of those faiths.½

A look at 20 world views, faiths and religions and how they compare to Christianity. The author compares other religions and cults to Christianity. There is a nice list of references to other books and extensive footnotes at the back of the books. I enjoyed learning more about the various religions that are currently active in the world.

Is the Bible true or full of myths? Is God for real or just a crutch? Did God create Man or did man evolve? Has science proved Christianity is obsolete?

this was a good book, a good study of Romans and even though written quite a few years ago a lot of it is still valuable today.½

This book presents the true meaning of being a Christian. It's not about rites, rituals, and rhetoric. It's about embracing the gift of a Savior who freely gave himself for others. All the rest is organizational hooplah.

fun propaganda

Very good recourse for understanding the primary differences between the larger world religions.

Very superficial treatment
