The role of prophets in Christianity and Islam will be explored in a free public talk to be held at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Wagga Wagga on Wednesday 13 October. The speakers are CSU Professor of Theology and Executive Director of the Australian Centre for Christianity and Culture, Reverend Professor James Haire and CSU adjunct lecturer and Executive Director of Islamic Sciences and Research Academy of Australia, Mr Mehmet Ozalp. The dialogue between the two leading religious figures will examine how Christianity and Islam view prophets, their role and characteristics. How does one know a person claiming to be a prophet is telling the truth? What is the central place and meaning of Jesus Christ in Christianity? What is the role and importance of the Prophet Muhammad in Islam? Essentially the lecture will look at how Islam views Jesus Christ and how Christianity views the Prophet Muhammad.
