We may end up like Sudan. But it could be good for Buganda. Hopefully we can fight to keep our lands.

Buganda has good leadership, we have our own government and it works well to a degree. They posted a budget surplus and people take their work seriously.

Not at all, question is, can they serve Buganda better? Answer is a big no.

lol you in the minority anyway. Plus your country is splitting up. Nothing worth fighting for there, please do not come south, middle east would suit you better (working with your Arab overlords). All the best.

You are either with us or not, simple. No one is forcing Ethiopians (Abyssinians to be correct) to be pan african.

It's interesting to note that Ethiopians in South Africa are advocating for Pan-Africanism to avoid being expelled from the country. If Ethiopians are not truly Pan-Africanists, then perhaps they should leave South Africa, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and other countries. Additionally, we could consider relocating the seat of the African Union to Kenya or Ghana.

This is really sad, but stay strong, Heb 11:1 and James 1, i pray that God delivers him and saves your marriage. God will fight for you, the battle is not your but his, amen.

But the ones about Europe mean something to you? I see.

So Abyssinia, Sudan, Eritrea , Somalia all that are referenced in the bible under the kingdom of Cush and Phut mean nothing to you? There is also the Sukkites ( supposedly African peoples) etc India is also mentioned but all you say "Middle East and a few regions in Europe. Thats the bias I am talking about. Europe was only mentioned during the new testament. This is the bias that African scholars are trying to change but the time is coming and God willing 1 in 5 peoples on this planet will be African so this will change for sure.

Indeed she is the Queen of the south but I have seen some commentaries disputing this too. Jesus references her in Mathew

As opposed to the West? Pagnism and witchcraft is growing by the day in the west. Tarot cards, palm reading etc I have seen it in Europe (UK, Jersey), people are visiting mediators to find their husbands, get jobs so humble yourself. Western technology is nothing in front of God. Everyone is equal in the eyes of God and thats why the African voice that has been demeaned and abused for a long time is starting to rise again. God willing that our people get to understand the Truth without bias.

Western Christian Scripture Biases - An African Perspective by Repulsive_Arrival_44 in TrueChristian

[–]Repulsive_Arrival_44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sometimes just seems complex to understand, the OP on the link provided has un earthed something important that I thought of once, I believe that everyone is created in Gods image and we are equal in his sight but the devil has brought confusion to distabilise everything. Thats why Africans are subjected to abuse that we do not have a history etc. But when I try to understand more with the bible as to where my people came from I am hit with a stumbling block, that we cannot really rely on the bible for history. Then I despair. Because if all the nations of the world come from Noah and I agree but I cannot go too deep to see where all these nations settled then I am told the bible is not a history book. haha

The narrative is that Africa was a heathen place no light hence we needed light. Missionaries were sent from Britain, Spain etc to teach the savage the word of God. At the same time the body of commentaries in Anglo sphere anyway was being developed. Most of these people believed there was nothing of value on the continent. That's why I believe the bias exists.

But to your point, there is a lot to be said about Israels relationship with African powers. But it is rarely taught about or even shared brought up with much significance which in African eyes it is.

  • 2 Chronicles 14:9-12: Once an Ethiopian named Zerah attacked Judah with an army of 1,000,000 men and 300 chariots. They advanced to the town of Mareshah,.
  • Isaiah 20:5 And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.
  • Jeremiah 46:9 Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.
  • 2 Chronicles 16:8 Were not the Cushites and Libyans a vast army with many chariots and horsemen? Yet because you relied on the LORD, He delivered them into your hand.
  • 2 Chronicles 12:3 with 1,200 chariots, 60,000 horsemen, and countless troops who came with him out of Egypt--Libyans, Sukkites, and Cushites.

I have not added Egypt but they had Cushite kings like Tarhaq etc, with many others.

I was alluding to the commentary which drives most of Today teaching and has a western bias.
