This book traces the roots of the Christian belief in resurrection
and the afterlife as presented by Paul in First Thessalonians. The
Ghanaian author adopted mainly the approach of History of Religion
(Religionsgeschichte) to his study of the Pauline exhortations on
the fate of the dead and the living at the Lord's parousia in First
Thessalonians. He is of the view that neither the African
Traditional Religion nor ancient Greek philosophy and mythology can
give the background information on the Pauline exhortations in
question but Paul's origin as a Jewish Pharisee who believed in the
resurrection of the dead and valued this belief he inherited from
Judaism. The publication can help believers in Christ see death as
an event which paves the way for them to begin a new life with God,
their creator.
