      • A Contextual Study of the Attitude of Jesus towards Wealth Acquisition and Management in Luke 12:13-21

        Sampson M. Nwaomah 삼육대학교 선교와사회문제연구소 2009 Asia-Africa Journal of Mission and Ministry(AAMM) Vol.1 No.-

        During His ministry on earth Christ used various teaching methods, such as parables. Through these methods He wanted to modify human attitude towards even mundane things like money and inheritance. One such parable is recorded in Luke 12:13-21. It was told in response to the invitation of a younger brother for Christ to intervene in a family dispute over their inheritance. The particular dispute of these two brothers about the acquisition and management of wealth were of little concern to Christ in terms of his mission for humanity. Yet Christ through this parable provided principles that are very applicable to our contemporary society where the inordinate urge for wealth often leads people to engage in corrupt practices. This paper discusses the parable and draws contextual implications for Nigerian society.

      • Awareness, Perceptions and Challenges of Contextualization among Adventist Graduate Seminary Students in Africa

        ( Sampson M Nwaomah ) 삼육대학교 선교와사회문제연구소 2020 Asia-Africa Journal of Mission and Ministry(AAMM) Vol.22 No.-

        Christian mission mandate is evidently linked to God’s fundamental initiative and commitment to reconcile sinful humanity to himself. Thus, the church today only continues in the mission of reconciling lost humanity to God. In doing mission, however, a continuing challenge has been on how best to communicate and facilitate the acceptance of the gospel while remaining biblically faithful. This has led to the somewhat contentious practice of contextualization. Within the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Africa, the quest for contextualization seems to have sustained discussions on its concept/description, whether and how to contextualize the gospel and the challenges to such practice. Therefore, this study investigated the awareness, perceptions and challenges of contextualization among Graduate Seminary Students who are Seventh-day Adventist pastors in Africa. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. A purposive sampling method was used to select two hundred (200) Graduate Seminary students from the four masters and two doctoral programmes offered by the Adventist University of Africa, Nairobi. Ninety-two (92) of respondents participated in the survey. The data gathered from the survey were presented and discussed using frequency distribution tables. The study discovered that the pastors of the Seventh-day Adventist church in Africa claimed to be sufficiently aware of contextualization. However, some perceived it to be the same as inculturation and indigenization. The study further revealed that while the respondents agreed that contextualization could enhance mission and faith practices, there seemed to be some challenges on the spheres that contextualization could occur. Finally, the study identified some challenges to contextualization. Therefore, relevant recommendations were made based on the findings of the study

      • Prosperity Gospel in the context of Jesus' Teachings on Wealth in the Gospel of Luke

        ( Sampson M. Nwaomah ) 삼육대학교 선교와사회문제연구소 2014 Asia-Africa Journal of Mission and Ministry(AAMM) Vol.10 No.-

        The discussions on prosperity gospel seem very engaging and unending. In spite of the flaws of this teaching, more and more followers seem attracted to it. One of the passages significant to the proponents of prosperity gospel is Luke 6:38, which seems to suggest that there will be abundant reaping following acts of kindness. This paper therefore investigates the overall teaching about wealth in the gospel of Luke and concludes that while Luke 6:38 may suggest that God rewards acts of kindness, it might hurt one s faith to focus on rewards as a motive for generosity or service. It further argues that rather than craving for abundance, Luke suggests caution because of the dangers wealth could pose on faith and human relationships.

      • Perceptions and Challenges of Church Records Management among Seventh-day Adventist Pastors in Africa

        ( Angela Nwaomah ),( Sampson M. Nwaomah ) 삼육대학교 선교와사회문제연구소 2021 Asia-Africa Journal of Mission and Ministry(AAMM) Vol.23 No.-

        The membership of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Africa is estimated to constitute the highest as compared to other regions of the world. This may have been enhanced by factors such as the high receptibility of its message on the continent. The amount of membership that the church holds in Africa has corresponding implication on the volume of records that its clergy and other record managers’ process. However, there are concerns about the dependability of some of these records and how they impact the global church statistics and decisions. The reliability of church records could be influenced by the perceptions and certain challenges of the records creators and managers. Therefore, this paper, using an empirical research method, investigated the perceptions and challenges of church records management among pastors of the church on the continent. The return rate of the survey was 56.22 percent. The study found that the respondents have good perception of records and the role they play in organizational efficiency. Some challenges such as lack of disaster-preparedness, inadequate funding, lack of personnel training, unavailability and or/or inadequate organizational policies on records, and inadequacy of storage facilities were identified. Therefore, it was recommended that the organizations of the respondents should address these issues for effective and efficient records management.
