A New Testament Church in an African Setting

A New Testament Church in an African Setting is a call for the church to return to the biblical pattern established by Jesus Christ and demonstrated by the early believers. While many Christians admire the power, unity, and spiritual vitality of the New Testament church, this book argues that such a reality is not confined to history. Through wholehearted submission to Christ, obedience to Scripture, and dependence on the Holy Spirit, the church today can experience the same presence, power, and transformational impact that characterized the first-century church.

Drawing from Scripture and addressing the unique opportunities and challenges of the African context, this book examines the nature, mission, and characteristics of the New Testament church. It explores the distinction between the visible and invisible church, the biblical qualifications for membership and ministry, the importance of church discipline, and the church’s role as both a militant and triumphant community of faith. More than a theoretical study, this book serves as a practical guide and a prophetic challenge to believers and church leaders to rediscover God’s original blueprint, allowing His glory, presence, and purpose to be fully revealed in the church today.
