Africa has been largely evangelized. The vast majority of missionaries still there from the western churches are staying long after their New Testament objectives have been met. They have found that life on financial support is far less troublesome than going "home" to pastor a church or lay cement. Also, many of these missioaries are actually a hindrance to the local African churches. Why? Answer: These missionaries fund and perform ministries the African church could and should be doing.
Another side effect of this picture is that the African church is very weak. They have been tied to the apron strings of the mission boards as children to a nanny. The result is that Western cults have entered in profusion. Also, new African manufactured cults abound, and old time pagan religion is returning. Weak Christians are fooled by this and go to these cults and pagan forms to find something truly "African."
We desperately want to hear from African Bible believers for this page. We want to identify these Satanic counterfeits and piano coversn saints in Africa of them. We also will need those who will copy and print this page and mail it to African pastors since the computer and the INTERNET is not available to the majority of the masses in Africa.
If you are an African pastor and have information for this page, here are our requirements:
1. give the name and contact in your church and fellowship who can confirm your ministry.
2. Send any computer communication by 3.5 inch disk in Windows Write format. Otherwise, send your written information to: Balaam's Ass Speaks, PO Box 4728, Huachuca City, Arizona 85616 Blip.
3. Use only the King James Bible for Bible quotations.
4. Do not use this page to fight political battles in your churches. If you do, we will have to drop you from all consideration.
