Spirituality of African woman: A necessary change for moral development in the 21st century.
Abstract
The impact of moral degeneration is currently being felt around the globe.
It is currently gripping all people across the spectrum of all cultures on
the globe. Few members of these cultures can claim to be living a life free
from stress caused by this kind of evil that is eating up the moral fibre of
our society. However, given the fact that moral decay showed up shortly
after God had created the earth from Chaos to Cosmos as the holy bible
confirms this, we have to live with hope that this situation can be rectified
in the near future. Who will, and how this will be done is going to be the
focus of this paper's discussion.
The first part of this paper will focus on how God or the supernatural
being developed and struggled with the human beings whom he had
given special favours and they just failed to honour them due to submitting
to Immoral behaviour he had warned them against. Further, the
argument that this has now become like a pattern in human history will
be emphasized to show that the forgiving God can still provide us with
means to rectify immorality of this century.
The third part will be examining current trends that encourage serious
moral degeneration of the 21st century. Further I will examine whether
today we are hoping for God's mercy by embracing our extrasensory
perceptions and accepting them to help us venture deeply in spiritual
experiences that face us daily. For instance the natural disasters point
to a likelihood of renewing the face of the earth once again as he did in
the past.
Since moral decay began as a gender related issue with Eve during
creation, I will also apply that aspect of females as the people whocan try to stop what they started. And that the spirituality of Women
that leads them into counter-cultural type of life helps them to see
other dimensions of concern in life better than their counterparts,
the males. This is to elaborate on the fact that they are diff erent from
men in all aspects of life and the way they experience the supernatural
spirit can make them better people to make the difference in society.
The conclusion will underscore the centrality of the Holy Spirit's work
among women from the past years to this new millennium and the likely
results of their eff ort among the entire human race.
