Abstract
The study seeks to study the Christian narrative unearthing the wealth of
resources inherent in it to act as a stimulant and a motivating force for the
present church towards the much-desired immortality that is the mark of the
finish. It is an account that dates back to the first century during the
formation of the church to the present state of the church in her pursuit of
an alignment to the eschatological roadmap stipulated in scriptures. The
study employs the scholarship of the historical Christian narrative from the
analogical perspective of a journey of the Israelites in the Pentateuch
towards Canaan. This was a journey that was characterized by pulsations of
moving and stopping based on the instruction and guidance of God.
Similarly, the Christian story is one that is emphatic with regard to the
involvement of God in the Christian journey. The study captures the
dominant moves of God over the centuries and their significant contribution
to the establishment and progress of Christianity and the key players in the
entire process from the protestant movement to the Apostolic Reformation.
This will facilitate the understanding of the church in her present state as a
product of her past journey and development with regard to offering
guidance and facilitation of Christian practice. It will help the church with
regard to guidance to help her avoid falling into the pit that their forerunners
fell into and also motivate her towards greater exploits for God
