This Rose Bible Basic on "Chritianity, Cults & Religions" is a good overview, with nice, brief reference guides to various religions. It only scratches the surface though and should not be considered an "end-all-be-all" guide by any means.

Overall, I have found it handy to use when brushing up on a religion which I have previously studied but have not dealt with for awhile. It is also a good companion study guide for the Rose Powerpoint presentation on "Christianity, Cults & Religions."

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent set of comparison charts -- full color, September 29, 2009

By 

Book Lover "Book Lover" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Rose Bible Basics: Christianity, Cults & Religions (Paperback)

This is an excellent book of side-by-side comparison charts of 40 world religions, sects, and cults. It makes the information very easy to grasp at a glance. It gives an explanation of each group's founder, date, and location, as well as what each group believes about God, Jesus, Salvation, Life After Death, and several other categories.

CORRECTION: This is a full-color 112-page book that compares 40 world religions, sects, and cults. But there is also a small fold-out chart that is called Christianity, Cults & Religions Christianity, Cults & Religions, also from Rose Publishing, which is $3.99. The link above is not to the correct fold-out chart.
