CHAPTER 5: RECOMMENDATIONS
5.6 Conclusion
go back to the church in order to discuss the findings and carefully analyse the legitimacy and the future plans of this church. This was out of bound for this study as this could lead to severe consequences judging from the sensitivity of the finding of this study. Closing off of this loop would be a call for further studies in this church branch.
According to (The Holy Bible) in Genesis chapter 1 verse 28, God created man with the purpose to rule on all the earth and all species. It was never the original God’s plan that man should be oppressed by another man, thus the church needs to move people back to God’s plan of man being emancipated. The word of God says we should love one another, thus if we truly love each we would have each other’s interests at heart and we would deliberately make moves to see the world in the eyes of another. Love could be a useful tool in bridging tolerance between generations.
There is a Zulu saying “Inkunzi ilele ematholeni” which is translated as “The bull comes from calves”, thus any organisation or nation that does not understand that its future rests in its young is doomed for extinction.
