The first is an attitude which can be traced back to…Kant and which has become, we might say, one of the orthodoxies of today. It rests on a distinction between the one true religion and the different systems of belief through which men have tried to express it. There is one God, directly accessible to all men through reason or moral conscience, but there are many ways in which men have tried to respond to His revelation.Wilfred Cantwell Smith. But against such a view there stands a second one which, starting from what may seem to be the same premiss, draws exactly the opposite conclusion. Hendrik Kraemer.But Revelation for him means,not the voice of God speaking in silence to the individual conscience, it means something public and unique, the Incarnation. And it follows from this that the only authentic response is Christian faith. Between these two paths there lies a third one which some Christian theologians are now treading. Islam, like other religious outside Christianity, can be seen so to speak, as stopping places on the road towards the Church [Journet, Zaehner, Massignon] What are we to make of this vision of Islam asthe reproachful and excluded stranger,and of three faiths turned in prayer towards the same high places? It could not be stated or explained in any other terms except its own, but it is disturbing and will not be forgotten in any dialogue of Christians and Muslims.'.
