Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>This war didn\u2019t start with the abortion or gayism or polygamy debates. Neither did it cease fire with the declaration of Zambia a christian. It started with the evangelical and Pentecostal church dividing into factions.<\/p>\n

First the refusal of licensing Bishop Malenga\u2019s outreach to chelstone under a silly 6km radius no other church rule. Boom first independent church. Second failure to recognize Pastor Nevers Mumba\u2019s evangelical board of Zambia (eboz) boom Victory Ministries was born.<\/p>\n

Third the scrabble or greed for POAG churches by local pastors by kicking out missionaries. I inadvertently heard the plans \u2013 warned my leadership and the scrabbling pastors called me a liar.<\/p>\n

Northmead leadership refusing to hear the need to start branch churches around Lusaka which would be united. Rather they disliked the messenger. Okay wasn\u2019t today situation not told to them. Are churches now united?<\/p>\n

Forthly forcing out then Pastor Sexton Chiluba because he was assistant to a Pastor who fell into sin. Healing word born. By the time multipartizan arrived the unity was gone. The declaration fortified greed \u2013 clergy on the payrol of the slash fund \u2026..<\/p>\n

I remember how a Lusaka crusade by Dr Mumba was shunned because he appointed a non clergy as chairman. Only late bishop SC Chihana stood Remember how we in NCC were attacked by Christians in MMD.<\/p>\n

Remember how Dr Mumbas quest for presidency was not supported. Remember how General Miranda was brushed aside. Hahaha now you think you can fight the legal wave. Hahahaha. Even if parliament was all \u201cchristian\u201d \u2013 wishful thinking. Revisit your roots, repent and unite. You are too weak to fight anything. I can go on.<\/p>\n
