{"product_id":"9781540972347_on-islam","title":"On Islam","description":"At the beginning of the twentieth century, famed theologian Abraham Kuyper toured the Mediterranean world and encountered Islam for the first time. Part travelogue, part cultural critique, \u003ci\u003eOn Islam\u003c\/i\u003e presents a European imperialist seeing firsthand the damage that colonialism had caused and the value of a religion he had never truly understood. Here, Kuyper's doctrine of common grace shines as he displays a nuanced and respectful understanding of the Muslim world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThough an ardent Calvinist, Kuyper still knew that God's grace is expressed to unbelievers. Kuyper saw Islam as a culture and religion with much to offer the West, but also as a threat to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Here he expresses a balanced view of early twentieth-century Islam that demands attention from the majority world today as well. Essays by prominent scholars bookend the volume, showing the relevance of these teachings in our time.","brand":"Abraham Kuyper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40976023060529,"sku":"9781540972347","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0571\/9926\/3793\/files\/9781540972347.jpg?v=1780471137","url":"https:\/\/bakerbookhouse.com\/products\/9781540972347_on-islam","provider":"Baker Book House ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
