(Deutsch) Deutschland ist Umschlagplatz Nummer 1 für die Ware Mensch in Europa. Mitten in unseren Städten existiert eine dunkle Parallelgesellschaft: Zwangsprostitution, Kindersex, illegale Arbeiter, Organhandel oder Kinderbanden. Thomas Schirrmacher klärt mit seinem neuen Buch auf und zeigt, wie jeder Einzelne helfen kann.
We are grateful to Prof. Dr. Schirrmacher for answering our questions. He is known as somebody who is prepared to give offense, if appropriate. He is known to me primarely for his struggle for persecuted Christians in all the world. His open-minded attitude towards ecumenism, however, has also brought much criticism upon him. He is furthermore known as an author of numerous publications, among them his famous standard work: “Ethics”.
Two world religions – two global books: Bible and Koran. Both are distributed millions and millions of times. Their contents write world history. But two books can hardly be more different in origin, style and message. Finally, the reader learns briefly and succinctly what unites and above all separates the two – now also available in Greek!
Even though I was very busy and only found time to open my copy in the evening, I had to read ‘From Jerusalem to Timbuktu: A World Tour of the Spread of Christianity’ in one go! I finished tired, but filled with joy.
“The Persecution of Christians Concerns Us All” is currently the most comprehensive and biblically theological analysis of Christian persecution worldwide.
