"The conclusion I reached through this book is that ancient Japan was undeniably a nation under the profound influence of Christianity, and that both Shinto and Buddhism, in their essence, are expressions of Christianity."

”Dr. Nagami’s biblical insights and discernment help restore the reader’s sense of balance and perspective.”

”I found myself nodding in agreement as I read the sections on “The Roots of Japan,” “Traditions Shared by Japan and Israel,” “Christianity Hidden in Shinto,” and “Christianity Hidden in Buddhism.””
