All I know of is Ben-Hur by Lew Wallace. It was published in 1880, but there are lots of different covers I'm sure. It is more historical fiction, but it may be your book. :)

It might be Joshua: A Parable for TodayJoshua: A Parable for Today by Joseph F. Girzone. The publishing date was 1995.

If OP comes back to this thread, another possibility to check out is A Creed for the Third Millennium by Colleen McCullough. It was published in 1986, it is a near-future (from the perspective of 1986) setting (science fiction), and a couple of the editions have a man on the cover looking to the right. Nothing that looks like a road behind him, however, so this is probably a long shot.Covers :

The Singer by Calvin Miller? First in a trilogy - I'm new here and can't figure out how to link to a picture of the cover, sorry!!

published around the early 90's (maybe late 80s)
an allegory to the Life of Christ
setting is a fictional world/fantasy world
the cover I remember had a man on the front with a roman style road behind him
I want to say one of the title words started with a "T"
This isn't a Tolkein or Thoene book, nor a Lewis book.
