This work brings together about 250 doctrinal parallels to demostrate a broad influence of Hindu theology - both directly and through its presence in other cultures (eg. Egyptian mythology, Greco-Roman philosophical thought, etc.) - on the supreme authority of the Christian faith, the Bible. The validity of these parallels is suported by more than 750 citations from comparative sources, making the First World Religion a book that far surpasses any other research on this question. Likewise, it can serve as a spiritual guide for anyone interested in searching for fundamental truths.
