The person of Jesus Christ does not only play a key role in the Christian dialogue with non-Christians, but it is also the central issue in the current debate on the Christian theology of religions. Within this context, after the 1970's, some individual theologians and thinkers have attempted to study the status of Jesus by questioning seriously the traditional Christian beliefs and doctrines that this study critically evaluates. A number of works which discuss the uniqueness of Jesus Christ and the possibility of reinterpreting traditional doctrines in the light of new developments and the practical implications of dialogue with people of other faiths.
