An Ecclesiology for the New Ghetto Theology

Using the story of Simon the Niger as a blueprint for how the early messianic movement grew and progressed from its own ghetto conditions Shahidi Islam presents an ecclesiology - with information that has only in our time been coming to light - of the early messianic movement.

At the same time, he also uses that same ecclesiology to present a structure for the already existing ghetto movement of the godbody.

Hereby, Islam hopes to formally structure and systemise the godbody to progress even as the early messianic movement did when they rose in their own time.

Shahidi Islam, formerly Tony Saunders, made his bones in New York City as O.G. Foot-C of the Brooklyn, New York Crips in the late 1990s. After returning to London he soon reconnected with the godbody movement existing in South London, taking the name Shahidi Islam upon joining. Islam has since become a member of the Society for the Study of Theology as well as an advocate for the godbody movement.
