Revelation and the Religions

Avery Dulles is one of the country’s most distinguished Catholic writers and teachers on the subject of theology. Here, he sets forth with meticulous scholarship the various positions on Divine revelation that have been taken by a number of modern theologians, both Protestant and Catholic. His work sheds light on a long division between the branches of Quakerism: how to reconcile the Christian belief that continuing revelation is the work of “Christ within” with the universalist perspective that the Divine is revealed through the “inner Light” in people of all faiths.
