The older ways of understanding the Apocalypse of John-even the experience of the prophecy itself-no longer works. The Apocalypse of John and Liberation Theology in Africa offers a new paradigm in interpreting the Apocalypse in Africa. Africa is an enigmatic, Christian continent, yet very corrupt and poor. This book makes it clear that the Bible has taken a front seat in legitimating of colonization as it constructed a 'self validating' world in which domination appeared normative and permanent. While the Bible in the hands of the Africans is reducible to a sociological current, it becomes clear that it cannot be read in isolation from our context. The Bible has championed the control of the African culture, resulting to the desire of the Africans coming up with ways and means of re-controlling a text so zealously read and taught in Africa. This book brings new ways of reading for the liberation of the African continent.
