IS RELIGION THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM OF THE BLACK MAN?

Is Religion the Source of the Problem of the Black Man? This thought-provoking message examines the question of whether religion is truly responsible for many of the challenges facing the African society. It challenges the tendency to blame Christianity, the Church, or religion for problems that may instead be rooted in the actions, choices, attitudes, and failure to practice the values people have been taught. Using examples from everyday life, history, Scripture, and African society, the message explores the difference between simply being religious and allowing the principles of faith to influence how we live. It also considers the consequences of abandoning truth while searching for external causes for our struggles. Ultimately, the message calls for honest self-examination, responsibility, and a return to the practical application of godly principles rather than simply blaming religion for the problems around us. Read the full message and consider the question for yourself: Are we blaming religion for problems that we have the responsibility to change?
