		The Repression Of Evangelism In Greece: European Litigation Vis-À-Vis A Closed Religious Establishement Author: John Warwick Montgomery Evangelism can lead to jail sentences in Greece, historically the "cradle of democracy." Lawyer-Theologian John Warwick Montgomery, who has successfully fought the Greek anti-proselytism law in the European Court of Human Rights, analyzes the Greek religious and civil rights paradox. Montgomery contends that religious establishment per se (a state church) is not the source of the problem to be found in Greece. The State and its established church should distinguish between "first generation" human rights (civil liberties) and "second generation" rights (economic and social benefits), carefully limiting the privileges of the establishment to the latter, while preserving an open marketplace for religious expression and practice on the part of other belief systems. A book for human rights advocates, missionaries, and all who support an open marketplace for religious expansion. 248 pages
		Human Rights And Human Dignity Author: John Warwick Montgomery "Tackles the tricky subject of human rights . . . with legal precision and theological acuity". (Dr. Harold O. J.

(Prof. Irving Hexham, University of Calgary) Contains a detailed argument for the truth of Christianity based on legal evidence (chapter 6). 319 pages

Dr. Harold Lindsell says, "[Dr. Montgomery's] conclusions shake the thinking man's confidence in either the adequacy of Marxist presuppositions or the manner in which Marxist regimes can seriously make and uphold commitments to fundamental human rights." 202 pages
