dc.description.abstract | The propaganda of Globalization was that it was going to create a global village. On the surface, the language sounded community inclined. However, the instruments of globalization such as Internet communication system, telephone, satellite and cable televisions, advanced technology in banking and financial transaction (credit cards and money transfer), home marketing, fast food stores, just to mention a few have nothing inherent in them to create or encourage communal living. Globalization has thus compounded the problem of individualism and is helping to destroy the remnants of communal living in Africa. Christianity is a very power institution in Africa. It has the power and the instrumentation of remodeling society and establishing better value system. There are concepts in its sacred book that can instill the value of communal living which is at the danger of disappearing in our society. Unfortunately, Christianity has come to us clothed in western individualistic influence and has overtly emphasized personal and individual salvation. Contrary, This paper will discuss the biblical concept of corporate salvation which has the potentiality of restoring communal living in the Church and society at large. | en_US |
