This study affirms the statement that Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, noting that this statement of faith entails various assumptions: First, the church has only one Head, that is, Jesus Christ. Secondly, only Jesus Christ must be exalted and have the pre-eminence in the church. Thirdly, this prohibits anyone or any governing assembly to lord it over another one or exercise authority other than the authority from Jesus Christ.

While these rituals have value and fill key functions in society, they are at the same time troublesome. The lack of proper medical equipment and training in performing actual circumcision, as well as accompanying teachings which encourage sexual promiscuity, makes these ceremonies physically, spiritually, and morally dangerous. The AIDS epidemic in Malawi can also be partly traced to these rituals.

Because of the grand quantity of material referring to this subject this list doesn't claim to be complete. This bibliography records publications of the following emphasis: The colonial society in Africa before, during and after the First World War (economy, politics, society c. 1900-1930) The war in the German Colonies (Namibia, Cameroon, Togo, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi) The war and its consequences in the other African countries (from Algeria to Zimbabwe) Africa in Europe (the employment of African soldiers and workers in Europe, Rhineland- Occupation) The colonial armies (German Schutztruppen, King’s African Rifles, Force Publique, Tirailleurs Sénégalais, Nigerian-Regiment, Gold Coast-Regiment, Rhodesian Regiment etc.) The forced recruitment of slaves by the colonial powers for military service and carriers. Resistance and rebellion against war, forced labour and recruitment. (e.g.: Makonde; Nyabingi) The role of religious movements and missions (e.g.: White Fathers, Senussi) The role of women during war time (a frequently neglected topic) The consequences of the war (famines, devastations, victims, Spanish Flu) Further conquests of the colonial powers during the war. (e.g.: Darfur) Africa after the Treaty of Versailles (the new partition of the continent and the mandate system) Formation of African political organisations, unionizations and nationalism (e.g.: Pan- African-Movement) Finally selected Works about Africa and the Second World War.

  • Master Thesis in Cultural Encounters Scottish
    MASTER THESIS IN CULTURAL ENCOUNTERS SCOTTISH MISSIONARIES AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF PRESBYTERIANISM IN MALAWI: THE CASE OF BLANTYRE SYNOD. (60 credits) Eunice M’biya December, 2016. i Abstract This master thesis examines the development of Presbyterianism in Malawi with reference to the Church of Central Africa Presbyterian, Blantyre Synod. Employing a qualitative approach to the research, the study aims at finding out the changes in Presbyterianism, regarding them as a response to the Scottish instituted Presbyterianism. Now that the church is an African church, the paper focuses on the difference between the Scottish and the African Presbyterianism. It looks at both the historical and modern day cultural encounter by employing the archival sources and conducting observations and interviews with the contemporary Presbyterians to determine the changes in Malawian Presbyterian practices, liturgy, leadership, worship and ethics of the church. The purpose of the research is therefore to critically examine how CCAP, as a culture has evolved with passage of time, responding to internal and external factors of indigenization and globalization respectively. The paper gives a background to the formation of the Presbyterian Church in Malawi by looking at the initial missionaries’ encounters with the indigenous Malawians, but also their aims and objectives. It also analyzes Malawian acceptance to Christianity and transformation with regard to Presbyterianism as a part of a cultural encounter. Both cultural encounter and religion enforces a change in the socio-cultural patterns of a society, hence the paper looks at the socio-cultural impacts of the missionaries on the local Malawian religious culture. It looks at the cultural conflict arising as a result of the cultural encounter involving the two different countries, races and religious viewpoints.
