Reception of Scripture and History in Pentecostal Keys
Context, History, and Social RealityReception is very important in the history of religion and theological scholarship.A prophecy is not only revealed but is also received.If prophets spoke and their audiences did not receive their inspired words and deem them worthy to be preserved and handed over to the next generation, then today we would not have their prophecies.Scriptures are not only passed down and live among us as transhistorical element…

Nigerian Pentecostalism
Presents a multidisciplinary study of how Nigerian pentecostals conceive of and engage with a spirit-filled world, arguing that the character of the movement is defined through an underlying "spell of the invisible." This book presents a multidisciplinary study of how Nigerian Pentecostals conceive of and engage with a spirit-filled world. It seeks to discern the spirituality of the charismatic religious movement in Nigeria in relation to issues …
A Theory of the Canoe House Corporation
Niger Delta. What was the origin of the canoe house system? What was the process of its growth by segmentation? Finally, with respect to the efficient boundaries of the canoe house, which activities should be performed within the house and which within the market, and why? Historians have offered specific theories to answer the first two questions, each with a different explanation. No writer has put forward a single theory that adequately explai…

The Mind of African Strategists
The management and business strategies of the Kalabari Corporation of the Niger Delta area of Nigeria are discussed in this work, which presents an easy-to-read, technically knowledgeable history of Kalabari business
Three against Four
In Kalabari there is a remarkable pervasiveness of tripartite schemes. This was not the situation centuries ago, and it is at variance with the baseline culture in the Niger Delta. In the past, and still among other Ijo communities, number three and odd numbers in general were associated with men; and even numbers and four in particular were associated with women. This paper investigates why the number-symbolism changed and "feminine" numbers dis…

The Ethics of Evangelism
Fire from Heaven
Is Harvey Cox’s Fire from Heaven which focused on Pentecostalism merely a mea culpa for the hubris of predicting the death of God in the 1960s or a case of using the “pentecostalization” of religions to describe the shape of religiosity in the emerging global civil society, global secular city? This essay shows how theologically liberal ideas in both his Fire from Heaven and Secular City are today used to theologize the relevant shape of faith in…
Pentecostal Paradigms of National Economic Prosperity in Africa
The most existential task facing Africans is economic development. For Christians, this raises the urgent question: what are the African Pentecostal churches' understandings and teachings on the continent's economic predicament? This chapter examines aspects of the social teachings of African Pentecostal churches related to national economic prosperity. I have identified five basic theological paradigms that frame the discourse on Africa's econom…

Pentecostal Theology as a Discursive Site for the Weight of Blackness in Nigeria
Blackness has become the discursive site for assessing, negotiating, and appropriating the meaning of spirituality as socioeconomic dislocations of Nigeria mingle with an increasing awareness of the “lowly lot of black humanity.” The discourse began with disciplining the body but quickly moved on to the normalization of a nation chosen by God to spearhead the final evangelization of the world and to lead the black race into global technological a…

The King's Five Bodies
Inspired by Jacob Olupona's important book, I provide an account of the Yorùbá political theology of sovereign flesh by examining the “five bodies” of the Ooni of Ifẹ̀. I then correlate the king's five bodies with the five dimensions of the Ifá divination tray and also deploy them to formulate principles of interreligious dialogue between Pentecostalism and traditional religion
Religion and Indigenous Hermeneutics
Jacob Olupona's City of 201 Gods critically engages the question of interpretation and understanding in the analysis of specific African lifeworlds (re)defined by religious culture. Olupona's interpretation invites further interpretation of how emergent symbolic forms in a context of plural religious practices provoke both consensus and dissensus with respect to secularist practices

Christianity and Freedom, Vol. II
Recently many liberal scholars in the West have argued that one of the best ways to assess the potentials for democratic politics of a religion is to examine its long trajectory of past events and stories that support liberal ideology. Thus, they maintain that you cannot really learn anything useful about Islam’s or Christianity’s deep orientation to freedom and democracy from Islamic or Christian radicals/terrorists. This selective approach to e…
Colonialism, Christianity, and Personhood
Liverpool Merchants in 19th-Century Niger Delta
How does religion or worldview affect business practices and ethics? This tradition of inquiry goes back, at least, to Max Weber who, in the Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism , explored the impact of theological suppositions on capitalist economic development. But the connection can also go the other way. So the focus of inquiry can become: How does business ethics or practices affect ethics in a given nation or corporation? This pape…
