Christ and Roots: Jesus as Revealed in the Bible and African Traditional Religions (Latest Edition) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Christ and Roots is about Christ Jesus, who revealed himself to me when I was six years old, about how Jesus talked about himself in the seven "I am" statements in the Gospel according to John, and how the New Testament writers experienced him and wrote about him. It is also about preexistent Christ who revealed himself to the African people long before the missionaries came to Africa. However, we assert that the revelation in Christ Jesus is superior to the one in pre-Christian religions. We fully agree with Hebrews: "In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things and through whom he also made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he has provided purification for our sins, he sat down at the right hand of Majesty in heaven. So, he became as much as superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs" (Hebrews 1:1-4).
