Abstract
The researcher reviewed the contributions of the African theologians on the subject and interrogated theological pitfalls in the quest for an Africa Evangelical Theology (AET). The study acknowledges that AET continues to face pitfalls from three theological trends in the continent. These are liberal ecumenism, pre-Christian traditional African religious experiences, and the prosperity gospel. These three aspects have resulted in liberalism, heretical tendencies, and the denial of the lordship of Christ, thus negatively affecting the Africa evangelical theology. These aspects threaten the Africa evangelical theology, although AET has the potential to influence all areas of faith and practice. The library research looks into the theological pitfalls that continue to threaten evangelical Christianity in Africa in the quest for a Christianity that is both African and biblically authentic.
