Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Bible, « le livre des livres », est ici mise en rapport avec l’Afrique. Ses mystères, son autorité et son impact sur la vie humaine et sociétale sont révélés. Sa constitution a bénéficié d’un apport significatif africain. L’Afrique biblique est peinte à travers certains de ses grands faits et événements, notamment : la formation de la première colonie juive sur sa terre, la succession de ses patriarches, ses relations avec le peuple juif après son exode, ses célébrités, son hospitalité réservée aux patriarches juifs et à l’enfant Jésus, son enrichissement du peuple juif à sa sortie d’Egypte. Sont aussi abordés, la connaissance par les africains du Dieu de Noé et de ses descendants : ses ancêtres, le culte rendu à ce Dieu unique avant qu’ils ne sombrent dans l’idolâtrie, leur contribution à l’évangélisation du continent, à celle du monde, sans Bible et ensuite avec la Bible, dans sa forme actuelle. Enfin, une projection basée sur des temps passés et présents de l’Afrique est faite.
Download or read book Quand la parole de Dieu visite l Afrique written by Paulin Poucouta and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les lectures africaines de la Bible soulèvent de nombreuses questions. Comment redonner vie au texte biblique pour qu'il soit réellement Parole de libération ? Comment éviter le danger du fondamentalisme qui guette non seulement les Eglises afro-chrétiennes mais aussi les grandes Eglises ? Où trouver des modèles d'interprétation africaine de la Bible ? Comment les femmes d'Afrique lisent-elles la Bible ? Paulin Poucouta essaie d'éclairer les questions ainsi posées et nous explique comment peut se lire la Bible dans une perspective africaine, de l'Egypte ancienne à l'Afrique d'aujourd'hui. L'auteur s'arrête longuement sur les Pères de l'Eglise qui ont vécu en Afrique du Nord, en particulier sur la figure de Saint Cyprien, l'évêque de Carthage au IIIe siècle. Le livre aborde en plusieurs étapes cette lecture plurielle de la Bible. D'abord en suivant le pèlerinage de la Bible sur la terre des pharaons, de l'Ancien Testament aux premières communautés chrétiennes et aux Eglises des premiers siècles. Traitant ensuite des problèmes de méthode et d'interprétation que rencontrent les biblistes africains, l'auteur aborde les événements et les données qui ont marqué le christianisme africain depuis le Concile Vatican II : l'évolution pastorale et liturgique, les deux synodes africains (1995 et 2009), la prise de parole croissante des femmes et leur propre lecture de la Bible.

Among the topics are: the historical development of biblical interpretation in Africa, the relationship between African biblical scholarship and scholarship in the West, African resources for reading the Bible, the history and role of vernacular translation in particular African contexts, the ambiguity of the Bible in Africa, the power of the Bible as text and symbol, and the intersections between class, race, gender, and culture in African biblical interpretation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plusieurs tentatives de définition de la notion de développement l'ont souvent restreinte à la croissance économique. L'idée d'un développement intégral de l'Afrique est indissociable de l'effort de valorisation et de promotion de ce qui définit l'homme dans sa triple relation à Dieu, au monde et aux autres. La Bible inspire des paradigmes éthiques, écologiques et socioéconomiques non négligeables pour tout épanouissement transgénérationnel de l'homme.

Download or read book Africa the Origin of Life and Black the Color of God written by Tiebet Joshua and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE BOOK: Africa: The Origin of Life is a 10-year painstaking research on the Bibles story of mankinds cosmogony of which 7 out of the 10 years spent on the research were on full time basis. The Bible says that God created one man in the beginning and went ahead to describe the location of the habitation of the first man. Two important issues in the Bibles story were of great interest to the Author for which he set out to research. These were: ? If the Bible story were taken to be true, it then means that the multi-races and colors in humanity today only came to be years after the creation of the first man, which means that originally, humanity only had one race and color from that man to a certain point in its history. That being so, what was the original color of that man? In other words, was he a Caucasian, a Mongolian, a Negro or an Amerindian and when did the multi-races and colors of people that we have today come to be? ? The earth has gone through so many changes through earthquakes, landslides, tumults, ocean drifts and desert encroachments, and etc., over the years since the creation of the first man. Taking all these into consideration, is it still possible to establish the location of Eden where our first parents lived? In other words, was Eden in America, Europe, Asia, or Africa? And if we are able to establish the continent which Eden was located, is it not correct to say that the first man was a native of that continent? ? Africa is poor and backward today, what are the causes of Africas backwardness? Is there any hope for Africa, or has God forsaken Africa? These and more are the salient questions that this book has biblically, scientifically and historically found answers to. The book is highly explosive and revealing. It would cause so much ripples and likely going to change some of your Biblical beliefs.
