Postponing Heaven: The Three Nephites, the Bodhisattva, and the Mahdi (Groundwork )

Christianity, like other world religions, surprisingly acknowledges the existence of a plurality of human messiahs. In this comparative work, philosopher Jad Hatem examines Mormonismâ€™s Three Nephites, Buddhismâ€™s Bodhisattva, and Islamâ€™s Mahdi; distinctive messianic figures who postpone Heaven, sacrificially prolonging their lives for the benefit of humankind.
