“Men” of God who use God’s word to steal from their members. Some of these churches, their leaders are so much into financial blessings hence such happenings.
#1, I’m sure you are simply being cynical.
maybe the church has turned into another form of financial market murshrooming everwhere like political parties or is that the word of God has been turned into big business. shame on them . This attitude of not wanting to be led but to lead is killing our country and has resulted in many political parties and churches being formed. At the end of the day you have such pastors
Signs of the end time. May the coming of our Lord Jesus draw nearer.Â
Those ma surnames dont sound zambians or maybe i need to be corrected
Late P.K Chisala called them POLEPOLE. Lovers of money and not God. Who will inspire us to depart from our life of sin?
Should be PF chaps trying to rise money for campaigns
Professor PK Chishala sang that Lesa alasebanya ilingiline pameso ya banthu! This was in Ba pastor’s song. Shame on these tum young pastors who used the church as employment and not serving the masses. Ya kunyokolani!!
It’s the end times, ‘people will be lovers of money’
It is like they did not know what they were doing would end them in custody.
Jesus didn’t say few people will be deceived,but(many people to be deceived because of the same posters,find matthews 24:5; 7:21-24).So they deceive people in the church by telling them not to take bribery and in some other ways. It’s the filfulment of 24:5,no other time and watch out you guys!!
