| Σύνοψη: | Introduction -- The Last Church of God and His Christ as an "African Independent Church" -- The Last Church of God and His Christ between 1916 and 1936 -- The growth of the Last Church of God from 1935 to 1962 -- The Last Church of God and His Christ ("Reformed Last") -- The Last Church of God and His Christ International ("African Last") -- Marriage and polygamy in the Last Church of God and His Christ -- Charasmatic and Pentecostal tendencies -- The Sunday worship and preaching service in The Last Church of God and His Christ International -- Becoming mainline again. Some scholars classify the Last Church of God and His Christ under the ecclesiastical-cultural bloc known as African Indigenous Churches (AICs). David Barret has divided the world's Christians into seven major ecclesiastical blocs. However, there are many large churches and denominations which do not define themselves under any of these three terms, and often reject all three. As far back as 1549 (Japan) and 1741 (USA), new types of Christianity have emerged that do not fit readily into any of these preceding six major blocs. These consist of denominations, churches and movements that have been initiated, founded and spread by black, Non-White or non-European peoples without European assistance, mainly in the Global South, but also among Black and Non-White minorities in the Western World. The African Indigenous Churches fall under this category. The aim of the book, is to examine the history of the Last Church of God and His Christ International in Malawi from its beginning (1916) through the years and to portray a picture of its current existence in its various branches: What developments and changes have taken place over the years? What has been the relationship of the church to African culture? How has the church grown or expanded? Has the church been able to maintain its unity? And what has been the relationship of the church with other churches? |
