ok...
So no one is screaming 'Judge not' now ?
I wonder what benchmark you guys are using to label what is going on here as wrong or heresy.
Listen please.
As long as people who believe they are Christians do not submit to the authority of
scripture alone, the door is left open for all manner of 'men of God' to take advantage of people who should know better.
These mpesa preachers did not get this brazen out of the blue...as long as fidelity to scripture is overlooked and the personal 'visions, dreams, visitations,anointings and other forms of personal self aggrandizement by so called men of god replaces the scriptures we will continue to see this and less obvious versions of deception.
Consider the words of Paul to Timothy.
2nd Timothy 4
2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season;
correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what
their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
Did you see correct and rebuke..?
Look again.
Im now sounding like a broken record but here goes..
As long as there are people out there who think that the Gospel is a means to health, wealth, prosperity,success in business or any form of earthly bliss then there always will be mpesa churches and mpesa congregations.
If there is a message that is offensive to the carnal mind, it is the Gospel Message. To receive it and repent is a work of the Holy Spirit on the unregenerate heart...
ask the rich young ruler in Mathew 19.
