Nigeria predicted in the Bible is an inspirational book that unlocks the prophecies concerning Nigeria and some other nations, and institution. The emphasis dwells more on Nigeria and her citizen's biological ancestries. Historians recorded the ancient Ethiopia cover extensive part of West Africa and that excludes Proper Guinea. The prophecy says beyond the rivers of Ethiopia there is a nation whose land the rivers divide; this prophecy pointed to Proper Guinea which is beyond ancient Ethiopia territory where we found Nigeria, a nation with two great rivers from different location forming a confluence and creating the greatest delta in Africa. This is the Y symbol in Nigeria coat of arms which explains the emphasis of a nation whose land the rivers divide. Through the prophecies and historical records, we are been informed that Nigerians ancestors were true biblical Israelite s fugitives; that settled in present day Nigeria. Zephaniah 3 v 10; From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering. Isaiah 18 v 7b; a nation whose land the rivers or great channels divide-to the place [of worship] of the Name of the Lord of hosts, to Mount Zion [in Jerusalem]. Amplified Bible Version.

The Cross and the River
Author: Ḥagai Erlikh
Publisher: Lynne Rienner Publishers
ISBN: 9781555879709
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
The ongoing Egyptian-Ethiopian dispute over the Nile waters is potentially one of the most difficult issues on the current international agenda, central to the very life of the two countries. Analyzing the context of the dispute across a span of more than a thousand years, The Cross and the River delves into the heart of both countries' identities and cultures. Erlich deftly weaves together three themes: the political relationship between successive Ethiopian and Egyptian regimes; the complex connection between the Christian churches in the two countries; and the influence of the Nile river system on Ethiopian and Egyptian definitions of national identity and mutual perceptions of the Other. Drawing on a vast range of sources, his study is key to an understanding of a bond built on both interdependence and conflict.

Warriors of Ethiopia
Author: Richard McLellan
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781909559974
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This book recounts the stories of just some of the hundreds of peasant farmers from Southern Ethiopia who God called to take the Gospel message into previously inaccessible regions, to people so fierce they would not hesitate to kill an outsider. It is a brief record of some of their culture, the security of their families and who, with Bible and water bottle in hand and confidence in their saviour, took the message of Jesus Christ over the mountain ranges and beyond the rivers to those who had never heard of Him. Today, through the sacrifices and sufferings of men like these, there are thousands of churches throughout the mountains of Southern Ethiopia. These stories will shock encourage, challenge and provoke you to follow their example as gospel warriors.

Symbolic Blackness and Ethnic Difference in Early Christian Literature
Author: Gay L Byron
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134544006
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
How were early Christians influenced by contemporary assumptions about ethnic and colour differences? Why were early Christian writers so attracted to the subject of Blacks, Egyptians, and Ethiopians? Looking at the neglected issue of race brings valuable new perspectives to the study of the ancient world; now Gay Byron's exciting work is the first to survey and theorise Blacks, Egyptians and Ethiopians in Christian antiquity. By combining innovative theory and methodology with a detailed survey of early Christian writings, Byron shows how perceptions about ethnic and color differences influenced the discursive strategies of ancient Christian authors. She demonstrates convincingly that, in spite of the contention that Christianity was to extend to all peoples, certain groups of Christians were marginalized and rendered invisible and silent. Original and pioneering, this book will inspire discussion at every level, encouraging a broader and more sophisticated understanding of early Christianity for scholars and students alike.

Rivers of Power
Author: Laurence C. Smith
Publisher: Little, Brown Spark
ISBN: 0316411981
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
An "eye-opening, sometimes alarming, and ultimately inspiring" natural history of rivers and their complex and ancient relationship with human civilization (Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction). Rivers, more than any road, technology, or political leader, have shaped the course of human civilization. They have opened frontiers, founded cities, settled borders, and fed billions. They promote life, forge peace, grant power, and can capriciously destroy everything in their path. Even today, rivers remain a powerful global force -- one that is more critical than ever to our future. In Rivers of Power, geographer Laurence C. Smith explores the timeless yet underappreciated relationship between rivers and civilization as we know it. Rivers are of course important in many practical ways (water supply, transportation, sanitation, etc). But the full breadth of their influence on the way we live is less obvious. Rivers define and transcend international borders, forcing cooperation between nations. Huge volumes of river water are used to produce energy, raw commodities, and food. Wars, politics, and demography are transformed by their devastating floods. The territorial claims of nations, their cultural and economic ties to each other, and the migrations and histories of their peoples trace back to rivers, river valleys, and the topographic divides they carve upon the world. And as climate change, technology, and cities transform our relationship with nature, new opportunities are arising to protect the waters that sustain us. Beautifully told and expansive in scope, Rivers of Power reveals how and why rivers have so profoundly influenced our civilization and examines the importance this vast, arterial power holds for the future of humanity. "As fascinating as it is beautifully written."---Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel, Collapse, and Upheaval

A World of Rivers
Author: Ellen Wohl
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226904806
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Far from being the serene, natural streams of yore, modern rivers have been diverted, dammed, dumped in, and dried up, all in efforts to harness their power for human needs. But these rivers have also undergone environmental change. The old adage says you can’t step in the same river twice, and Ellen Wohl would agree—natural and synthetic change are so rapid on the world’s great waterways that rivers are transforming and disappearing right before our eyes. A World of Rivers explores the confluence of human and environmental change on ten of the great rivers of the world. Ranging from the Murray-Darling in Australia and the Yellow River in China to Central Europe’s Danube and the United States’ Mississippi, the book journeys down the most important rivers in all corners of the globe. Wohl shows us how pollution, such as in the Ganges and in the Ob of Siberia, has affected biodiversity in the water. But rivers are also resilient, and Wohl stresses the importance of conservation and restoration to help reverse the effects of human carelessness and hubris. What all these diverse rivers share is a critical role in shaping surrounding landscapes and biological communities, and Wohl’s book ultimately makes a strong case for the need to steward positive change in the world’s great rivers.

Ethiopia Boy
Author: Chris Beckett
Publisher: Carcanet
ISBN: 1847777570
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 65
Book Description
Chris Beckett grew up in 1960s Ethiopia, a country he describes as a 'barefoot empire, home of black-maned lions... old priests decked out like butterflies and blazing young singers of Ethio-jazz'. Ethiopia Boy plunges the reader into praise poems that sing and boast and glory in the colours and textures of this extraordinary country. Here is a world of feasting on spicy kikwot and of famine sucking the water from rivers, of lion buses and a prayer child, where Earth sings greetings to the feet that walk on her. Haunted by the memory of his friend Abebe, the cook's son, Beckett celebrates and laments a lost boyhood in poems of vivid immediacy.
