About

What are the true origins of Christianity and is there any truth to the belief that many black people wouldn't be Christians if it weren't for slavery? When we start digging into the origin of the Christian faith, we find that Africa played a major role in its early years.+ The world's largest church membership is found in Egypt.+ Ethiopia declared Christianity their official religion decades before Rome.+ The apostles preached in Africa and Arabia before preaching in Europe.While Europeans have been instrumental in the spreading of Christianity, all evidence points to Old Testament laws and customs still being practiced in many parts of Africa, as they have for thousands of years. Newspaper articles from the 17th and 18th centuries mention Africans being in possession of scriptures not familiar to Europeans. The Ethiopian Coptic Bible is the oldest and most complete Bible in existence.If you're ready to learn the truth about Christianity and Africa's role in its early years, this is the book you want to read. Christianity was never the white man's religion.
