The Rev. Dr. Sun Myung Moon has said that he commissioned the World Scripture series based upon the firm conviction that religions have a key role to play in building a world of lasting peace in the twenty-first century. Indeed, in compiling an authoratitive selection of his own teachings, Rev. Moon has insisted on the inclusion of the sacred writings of the world. World Scripture and the Teachings of Sun Myung Moon builds on the foundation of World Scripture: A Comparative Anthology of Sacred d104s (1991), a pioneering work that examines the scriptures of the world's religions and illuminates their universal teachings and common ground. For the many people who have come to know and respect rev. Moon for his interreligious work and his efforts for world peace, these pages offer a doorway into his thought. For those who are already well acquainted with his teachings, this book reveals the rich connections between his thought and the universal heritage of the world's religions.

The Unification Church and its founder, Dr. Sun Myung Moon, have been in the center of controversy because of their recruiting practices, their financial holdings, and their authoritarian style--including arranged, mass marriages. Most controversial in terms of its teachings in Dr. Moon's claim to be a new Messiah who will finish what Jesus left "undone." Is he the Messiah, and is his Diving Principle the third testament of the Bible? Why this series? This is an age when countless groups and movements, old and new, mark the religious landscape in our culture, leaving many people confused or uncertain in their search for spiritual truth and meaning. Because few people have the time or opportunity to research these movements fully, these books provide essential information and insights for their spiritual journeys. All books but the summary volume, Truth and Error, contain five sections: -A concise introduction to the group being surveyed -An overview of the group’s theology — in its own words -Tips for witnessing effectively to members of the group -A bibliography with sources for further study -A comparison chart that shows the essential differences between biblical Christianity and the group -Truth and Error, the last book in the series, consists of parallel doctrinal charts compiled from all the other volumes. -Three distinctives make this series especially useful to readers: -Information is carefully distilled to bring out truly essential points, rather than requiring readers to sift their way through a sea of secondary details. -Information is presented in a clear, easy-to-follow outline form with “menu bar” running heads. This format greatly assists the reader in quickly locating topics and details of interest. -Each book meets the needs and skill levels of both nontechnical and technical readers, providing an elementary level of refutation and progressing to a more advanced level using arguments based on the biblical text. The writers of these volumes are well qualified to present clear and reliable information and help readers to discern truth from falsehood.

All human beings, upon finishing their lives on earth, are destined to transition into the spirit world. Here they discover that their "death" is, in fact, entrance into an extraordinary realm of eternal life. What is the nature of human life in the spirit world? It is almost indescribable in earthly terms, but not totally. In this book Kerry Pobanz, drawing principally upon the teachings of Sun Myung Moon and Emanuel Swedenborg, offers a deeply thoughtful and provocative glimpse of this unimaginable life beyond life. We must realize that the spirit world is our true home. We will inevitably discover that we originated from God's love as cosmic beings.
