Description: "From the time of the Second Vatican Council, there have been extraordinary developments in the Catholic Church's understanding of God's unitary plan for bringing Christians and non-Christians to salvation and eternal life. This book draws out the meaning and consequences of those developments, both in theology and in the world-view of Christian believers. The author offers a searching discussion of the importance, for Christian faith and life, of the relation between the natural religion of humanity - as reflected in different ways by all the religions of the world - and the revealed religion of Jesus Christ."--Jacket.
