Description:It is the purpose of this little book to offer the reader a series of impressions concerning the large Muslim minority in the Philippines in the hope that the total effect will be an accurate image of the Muslim Filipino and his religion which will prove helpful in understanding the challenges and opportunities they present to Christian work. This, at least, is the book's ambition; the reader is left to decide it's achievement. The writer makes no claim to bring an authority on Philippine Muslims and what follows is merely a digest of the wisdom of those in a far better position to know, mixed with a few of the writers own impressions and observations gathered from some travel in so-called "Moroland"....Warfare, alternate hot and cold, has raged between Muslims and Christians in the Philippines for well-nigh 400 years, and peace has not yet been made. Treachery, cruelly, reckless slaughter, hatred and suspicion have characterized contenders on both sides. For it's part, Christianity's record of deal with Muslims in this country (not to mention elsewhere) shows more shadows than lights. This record must improve---but it will not improve until old hatred are forgotten, until fall images are exposed, and until New attitudes are born.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
