dc.description.abstractIt has been proved by many missiologists that the only way forward in planting the seeds of faith in various cultures is by genuine witness to what we claim we are- Christ's followers. This witness includes also how competent the minister is in Inculturation and its application in the given local culture. For example the Portuguese missionaries achieved nothing in their efforts to convert Swahili people to Christianity because their move towards Mombasa missions reflected more of their self-centredness in winning People for Christ! Thus, the goal of this research paper is to highlight that during the 17th Century the Portuguese's approach in winning souls for Christ was like swimming against the tide. Hence, the remedy for this abuse of mission is by trying a new approach unlike that of the Portuguese method of evangelizing. I, therefore, thought of putting in place some essential tools on inculturation to help accomplish the job of realizing the seeds of revelation by God through Christ Jesus in any given culture.en_US
