Like your beloved country and the other unfortunate African countries where the Israeli mythology is preached on every street corner?

They told us that Christianity came from the white man for two reasons:

To make us feel indebted.

To destroy our self-image, making us think all Africans were pagans and uncivilized, living like uncontacted tribes in the bush.

But the Bible shows otherwise:

In Acts, during Pentecost, people from many nations heard the good news in their own languages and carried it back to their lands.

The same book also records that Philip preached to a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians.

This proves two things:

Christianity did not begin its spread from Europe.

Ethiopia had a queen, showing that not all Africans lived primitively.
Stop spreading lies. You can lie about whatever you wish, but noone ever told you that Christianity originated from Europe.

This shows that Egypt was initially a Christian country. Islam is really spreading fast. If Christians for Nigeria no shine their eyes well well, na wetin Fulani people plan for Nigeria be that.
Egypt was never a Christian country oga.

They worshiped gods and other deities including their pharaohs.

Christian may have spread from parts of Africa but Africa and Asia where under Roman rules at the time.

Even if they find the mural of Yeshua in Abeokuta, of what benefit is it to anyone in Nigeria? Religion of any kind ain't solving any of the problems bedeviling Nigeria.

Lies, religion or cultural beliefs might have been existing in parts of Africa but Christianity in particular started after the dead of Jesus, the European saw what religion could do and twisted it and brought it to West, Central and South of Africa.

This is not true. Have you heard of Ra, Osiris, Anubis, Hathor, Horus, Seth etc. These were ancient Egyptian gods - ancient Egyptians were pagans who worshipped different gods.

Africa is a continent with 54 countries. For the most of African (western, central and south) Christianity was indeed bright by white Christian colonizers and missionaries. Egypt and Ethiopia are simply exceptions, just two countries out of the rest of Africa. So yes Christianity was brought by the white man to MOST of Africa. Again Egypt and Ethiopia are just two countries

Egypt was a strong Christian nation until it was overrun by the Arabs who killed most of the original Christian indigenes who were black and replaced them with Arabs.
The original Egyptians were blacks. God redeemed them from his curse when he took Jesus to them to rescue him from Herod. Since then, the country grew in Christianity and one of the most prolific Christian writers of the early church Apollos lived and worked for years in Egypt.

There is no such thing as a Christian country, that idea is centuries out of date. None of those nations have a constitution based on your Bible.

Ethiopia had a queen even before that time. Queen of sheeba was an Ethiopian queen in the time of king solomon.

She gave Solomon a wast amount of gifts when she visited.

It's not quite right to claim that the Arabs killed most of the original Egyptians and replaced them.”When the Arabs took over Egypt in the 7th century, their main battles were against the Byzantine (Greek) rulers, not the native Egyptians. The Egyptians, known as Copts, were already Christians who had faced persecution from the Byzantines due to church conflicts. Under Arab rule, they were permitted to maintain their faith, provided they paid a tax. Over the centuries, Arabization did influence the language and religion of the region, but the people of modern Egypt are still largely descendants of the ancient Egyptians, rather than foreign replacements.

Regarding ethnicity, ancient Egypt was always a melting pot of cultures from Africa and the Near East. It included Nubian, Mediterranean, and Semitic influences so it's an oversimplification to label them as black in today's terms. Christianity indeed thrived early on in Egypt: Alexandria became a significant Christian hub, producing influential figures like Apollos (Acts 18:24), Origen, and Athanasius, and it was the birthplace of the first monastic movement. However, there's no biblical evidence to support the idea that Egypt was under a curse that Jesus needed to redeem. Scripture actually depicts Egypt as a place of refuge, not punishment in Matthew 2:13–15.

Thus, the notion that Arabs should return Egypt to its original owners lacks historical support. Today's Egyptians are essentially the same people, albeit Arabized in language and culture. What has changed over time is not their lineage, but rather their faith and identity.

I was about replying him when I saw your post. So, no need but he has some questions to answer.

He needs to tell us what happened to the Natives in South America and North America when the Caucasian Christians from Europe landed in the New world.

But don't you worship a blonde white man as your saviour?

Sorry, your worship of white men has NOTHING to do with AFRICA.

Understood?

These are the earliest European depictions of Jesus, before they whitened the image at the height of the slave trade.

If you have a WHITE MAN PICTURE in your church or parlour or bedroom, as ''JESUS'', you are deceiving yourself.

Bearing false witness.

You are not worshipping God or Jesus.

You are worshipping the white man colonial invader and psychological manipulator who falsely and crookedly positioned himself as your ''Lord and Saviour''.
