Mahatammoho: God And African Ancestors (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

There have been many misconceptions about the African traditional religion. One of the most common misconceptions is the notion that Africans worship multiple gods and not one true God. However, the truth is that according to the African traditional religion, although the ancestors are venerated (not worshipped), God is acknowledged as the Supreme Being. Like Jesus to Christians, the ancestors are to Africans, intermediaries between them and God.

God is highly respected and therefore it is regarded as a sign of disrespect to approach Him directly. This is the reason why those of the African traditional religion, approach Him through the spirits of the ancestors.

Many African writers have written about this subject before, but this book is different in the sense that the author used his own personal experiences to show the existence of the ancestors and their harmonious relationship and cooperation with God.
