The Center of Christendom

Not Rome, or Canterbury, or anywhere in the USA. More and more it appears the next center of Christianity will be Africa. This is just a outword sign with the Anglican / Episcopal Church. Christ's church is on the move in Africa and Asia, and almost dormant in the west where the people have decided we are to sophisticated and proud to bend the knee, as well as in our wealth having to many other gods to entertain us.

James 2:5 (New King James Version)
5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

James 4:6 (New King James Version)
6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says:
“ God resists the proud,
But gives grace to the humble.”

Aaron, great post.

I remember a seminary class where we studied the Westward spread of the Gospel. It seemed God's plan was to spread the Word from East to West until He comes back again. Africa seems to fit that pattern. Mid-East -> Rome -> Europe -> America -> Asia -> Africa -> ???.

Come quickly Lord Jesus.
