<p>Most of these men were born in the Roman province of Africa. I'm not sure that these men were born indigenous Africans/Egyptians. It is said that Tertullian was the son of a Roman centurion. But I'll research these men further. Thanks for the info.</p>

<p>Why "between 16th and 17th Centuries"? If you include the whole of Christian history, you have several North African theologians of significant impact to the development of the faith. Augustine, Clement, Tertullian, Origen... these early church fathers set the standard as theologians through the 5th Century. But by the 16th Century, Europe had eclipsed North Africa as a locus of Christian Theology.</p>

<p>Richard Allen started the AME denomination but used "Methodism" as the foundation of their beliefs and practices. De Porres was from a mixed race of the Dominican order. I'm looking for some African/Black theologians that contributed to Christian doctrine like Calvin established "Calvinism". I only see African/Blacks preaching and teaching what was already established by eurpoean theologians. Am I wrong?</p>

Parham was not only white, he was quite racist in his worldview. He was scandalized by the interracial worship services at Azusa St.

During the centuries you note there were none in the Protestant movement, not sure about the Roman Catholic Church--don't know Vincent De Porres dates. In the 18th century there was, of course, Allen and Varick. In the 19th any number of people in the AME and AMEZ churches. The was also J.W.C. Pennington in the Congregational Church who published quite a bit. Hope this helps.<br />

<p>John Marrant was considered one of America's first "Black Preachers", but I'm talking about "theologians" that have influenced theology and christian doctrines. We've had many "Black Preachers". But have you found anyone that has contributed works like Martin Luther, John Calvin, etc.....?</p>
