How in the world?

How is it that I find statements like this in my reference textbooks?

"The One God of all cannot be limited to any one perception of God, whether Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or any other. This is probably the greatest hurdle most Christians have to face."

Yep. Page 258 of Evans, Craig A., ed. From Prophecy to Testament. Peabody, MA: Hendrickson Publishers, Inc. The author of the section mentioned is named James A. Sanders (Ancient Biblical Manuscript Center and Claremont Graduate University, Claremont, CA). Go figure... he taught at Union Theological Seminary.

I guess this hurdle is just one that we have to jump over in the race of life. I've cleared it... and so have the NT writers (Jn 14:6; 1 Tim 2:5). Have you?
