My dear Africa saints be ware of the economic depression that is at the door . Do not buy into the lies from the prosperity parrots that everything is okay. Do not be fooled by the lies of African presidents and the so called ministers of finance. This is not time to panic. This is time to trust the Lord Wholly, to submit to the Lord wholly, to live simple lifestyles. It is time to love one another, care for one another, comfort one another. This is a time to pray without ceasing, fasting without ceasing, seek God with a pure heart. THIS IS TIME TO ASK OUR FATHER FOR DAILY BREAD.

The American economy and the European economies are at the verge of sinking, many people who had trusted their savings have already lost millions and many other people are going to fall soot. This eminent clash is going to have spill over effects on third world economies. Remember when America sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold.

The lord revealed this economic clash to many saints years back, but the problem is that many Christians have itching ears that love the enticing and deceptive material prosperity gospel. Many Christians are NOT interested in truth any more, they are very comfortable with lies. In Uganda this year many prosperity pastors prophesied blessings and breakthroughs but instead prices of goods and services have gone up and the sins in the church have been exposed.

MORE WARNINGS TO PROSPERITY PASTORS IN UGANDA , KENYA, NIGERIA, GHANA AND THE REST OF AFRICA
In Uganda many prosperity preachers have been exposed by the lord Jesus Christ because of their false prosperity doctrine AND because of their prosperity lies. Some pastors have some how been humbled by the lord. When you listen to some of the radio stations like top radio, messages of repentance, holiness have started to manifest. However some stations have stubbornly clung on to the false gospel of material prosperity. All these ‘born again’ radio stations continue to commit spiritual fornication and adultery with the American church. In fact very soon, TOP TV is going to bring American prosperity venom to Ugandans through DAYSTAR TV. Via, this station Ugandan are going to feed on the lies of Benny Hinn, T.D.Jakes, Joyce Meyer, Creflo $$$$$$$$$$$$$$, Kenneth Copeland etc.
The Lord Jesus Christ is going to cleanse his church in Uganda. I continue to warn the saints of the Lord in Uganda to separate from the prosperity lies. Separate from the prosperity lies completely. The Lord has weighed the church in Uganda and found it wanting… the lord has weighed the repentance of the church in Uganda and found it wanting….the lord has weighed the repentance of pastors in Uganda like Robert Kayanja , Mulinde, Mitala etc and found it waiting(TEKEL).

Joyce Meyer False Preacher/Teacher
http://www.forgottenword.org/meyers.html
Joyce Meyer is one dynamic speaker/motivator. The problem with Mrs. Meyers is that her doctrine is not Biblical. She does teach some good things but she also teaches way to many things that are not Biblically correct. Like the rest of the Word Faith, Seed Faith, Name It And Claim it crowd, Mrs. Meyers lives an extravagant lifestyle. She has all her clothes tailor made for her and lives in a multi-million dollar home, her husband drives a $100,000 automobile, her and their children all drive expensive vehicles, paid for by the Ministry and she fly's around the country in her Multi-million dollar jet plane when she isn't taking time to vacation at her home in the Ozarks, paid for by the Ministry. I truly believe these millions of dollars could have been used more efficiently on other causes other than to give her and her family a rich lifestyle. I do not think they should live as dirt poor persons but I certainly do not recognize any sacrifice on their parts. There are millions of people who need the basics in life just to live let alone have any extra. With all this extravagance, she is not showing the true spirit of Jesus. - RW

Joyce Meyers Message On Being Born Again
Quotes, Teachings, Doctrines, Beliefs Concerning Salvation
Purpose
What are the beliefs, teachings & doctrines of Joyce Meyers concerning being "Born Again"? What does Joyce Meyer believe on what a person must believe to be saved? What does Joyce Meyer teach concerning Jesus on the cross and spiritual death, and salvation? Below will be various quotes from Joyce Meyer teachings from one of her booklets called "The Most Important Decision You Will Ever Make", and the purpose for this information is not to be contentious or divisive, but rather to give an exposition of what Joyce Meyer teaches concerning being born again. Within the Christian Church there are many people who listen to Joyce Meyer whether on the radio, television, or by reading her books. However, many do not realize that her teachings are not in accordance with the Word of God. It is true that there are things she teaches which do line up Biblically, but the same is said of the Jehovah's Witnesses or the Mormons.
What does Joyce Meyer teach that is so bad? Is Joyce Meyer a false teacher? Is Joyce Meyer a Christian? Why should anyone be concerned? Joyce Meyers does not have all the same false teachings as those in the Faith Movement, but she does have some teachings that are the same with various Faith teachers. Examine this information for yourself and line up the Biblical gospel to the gospel that Joyce Meyer teaches. For more information on the Faith Movement teachings go to our Faith Movement section.
In a book called "The Most Important Decision You Will Ever Make" Joyce Meyer teaches what it means to be born again and what Christ had to do for people to be saved. Read the following comments:
"Although your physical body will die someday, your spirit will continue to live for an eternity. Whether your spirit lives in heaven or hell depends on the choices you have made. In this book, best selling author Joyce Meyer outlines God's plan of salvation so that you can make a quality decision." (Back of the book, 1996-Edition)
"The spiritual part of you can be thought of as the part of you that cannot be seen with the natural eye. This part of you will live forever. And where the spiritual you lives depends on the decision you make as you read this book." (Page 8, 1996-Edition)
*
Warning, Danger Ahead!
Joyce Meyer teaches that Jesus did not pay for sin upon the cross, but actually went to the torments of hell and made atonement there. The following quote is from Joyce Meyer's 1991 booklet on being born again which is worded differently in the 1996-updated edition.
"During that time He entered hell, where you and I deserved to go (legally) because of our sin...He paid the price there.…no plan was too extreme...Jesus paid on the cross and in hell….God rose up from His throne and said to demon powers tormenting the sinless Son of God, “Let Him go.” Then the resurrection power of Almighty God went through hell and filled Jesus...He was resurrected from the dead 3Ú4 the first born-again man" (The Most Important Decision You Will Ever Make: A Complete And Thorough Understanding Of What It Means To Be Born Again, 1991, pages 35-36, Joyce Meyer) This quote was found from the Christian Research Institute's article on Joyce Meyer which can be found by "Clicking Here".
In her 1996 edition of "The Most Important Decision You Will Ever Make" Joyce Meyer states the same things but with different wording.
"Believe that Jesus did what the Bible says. Believe He is indeed the Son of God, born of a virgin. He took man's sin on the cross. He did not stay dead. He was in the grave three days. During that time, He entered hell, where you and I deserved to go (legally) because of our sin." (Page 41, 1996-Edition) Notice the similar wording in this quote compared to the other quote.
"Whatever it took to get God's people back, free again, is what they would do. Jesus paid for our sins on the cross and went to hell in our place." (Page 41, 1996-Edition) Whatever it took means that Jesus had to go to hell, suffer and be tormented by demons in our place.
"When Jesus hung on the cross, He took our sin upon Himself. God cannot stay in the presence of sin. As Jesus took our sin, He was separated from the presence of the Father...Jesus was taking your sins and those of everyone else upon Him as He felt this absence of His Father's presence. He said, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" [Matt. 27:46, author's paraphrase] Jesus knew it would happen, but the horror of separation from the bright presence of the Father was worse than He could of imagined, and it caused Him to cry out...and His spirit went to hell because that is where we deserved to go." (Page 42, 1996-Edition) This is a common teaching among the Faith Movement whereas they teach Jesus died spiritually and became literally the nature of sin. Thus, the Father turned away from Jesus while He was on the cross and Jesus died alone. Check out our article "Was Jesus Separated From The Father On The Cross?" for further information on Jesus being separated from the Father and becoming spiritually dead.
"There is no hope of anyone going to heaven unless they believe this truth. You cannot go to heaven unless you believe with all your heart that Jesus took your place. He became your substitute and took all the punishment you deserve. He bore all your sins. He paid the dept you owe...Jesus went to hell for you. He died for you. He paid for your sins." (Page 43, 1996-Edition)
Concerning being born again and what is required to be saved we see Joyce Meyer teaching:
1.
"Believe...what the Bible says."
2.
That when Jesus was on the cross He did not stay dead but went to hell.
3.
That Jesus went to hell in our place because that is where we deserved to go.
4.
That God would do whatever it took to free His people.
5.
That there is no hope of anyone going to heaven unless they believe this truth, meaning what Jesus did to make atonement for sins.
6.
That a person must believe in their heart that Jesus took their place on the cross, He died spiritually, (implied) was separated from the Father, tormented by demons in hell, (1991-Edition) Jesus is the first born again man. (1991-Edition)
*
What is the Gospel?
The Scriptures are clear on what the Gospel message is.
"1 Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, 2 by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 NASB) The apostle Paul taught that Jesus died and rose again for our sins according to the Scriptures. Paul taught the death that Jesus died was His physical death and His shed blood. Nowhere do we find anything from Paul or any other apostle/prophet for that matter state Jesus died spiritually for our sins according to the Scriptures.
What the apostles taught concerning what Jesus did to make atonement and reconciliation for our sins:
"19 For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven. 21 And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, 22 yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach" (Colossians 1:19-22, NASB)
"18 knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, 19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ." (1 Peter 1:18-19, NASB)
What Jesus taught:
"27 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you; 28 for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins." (Matthew 26:27, NASB)
"44 Now He said to them, "These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled." 45 Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, 46 and He said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ would suffer and rise again from the dead the third day, 47 and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem." (Luke 24:44-47, NASB)
"Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, 'It is finished!' And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit." (John 19:30, NASB)
Jesus taught that His death and shed blood was sufficient for the atonement of our sins. When Jesus said "It is finished" He was teaching an absolute truth that the payment for sin was paid in full. The Greek of "It is finished" is "tetelestai" which was a common way of saying dept paid in full, it is done.
*
What Does Born Again Mean?
Simply put being born again means becoming a new creation in Christ. Jesus taught Nicodemus what born again meant in John 3:1-21 and the message was simple. A person either accepts or rejects that Jesus came to this world to save anyone of their sins. What does it mean to accept Jesus? Jesus came first to the Jews, then after His death and resurrection the message was for the apostles to go to all people. To accept Jesus means you acknowledge you are in need of being saved, (John 3:14-18) that you believe Jesus was the Messiah and God come in the flesh, (John 8:24) that Jesus had the same authority and equality as the Father, (John 5:18-23 & John 10:30) that Jesus was the only way to the Father and for salvation, (John 14:6) that Jesus taught the Father, the Holy Spirit and Himself were three distinct personages from one another. (John 14-16)
John the apostle teaches what born again means:
"4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith. 5 Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?"..."10 The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son. 11 And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life."..."20 And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life." ( 1 John 5, NASB)
*
What Will You Do?
It is clear that Joyce Meyer teaches another gospel message concerning what born again means and what is required to believe in order to be saved. This information shows Biblically that Joyce Meyer is not teaching the Biblical Gospel message and those who listen to her should be concerned. We believe she is teaching false doctrines of the message of hope and eternal life, and anyone who is serious about wanting to know truth needs to be open to examining this further. This is not an attack on Joyce Meyer in any way, but rather as said before an exposition on what she teaches concerning being born again.
We are warned in the Scriptures to be careful of those who claim to be of God but are in fact wolves in sheep's clothing. There are false prophets & apostles, and false Christ's:
"Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves." (Matthew 7:15, NASB)
"For false Christ's and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.." (Matthew 24:24, NASB)
"28 "Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. 29 "I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. 31 "Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears." (Acts 20:28-31, NASB)
"13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds." (2 Corinthians 11:13-15, NASB)
We are instructed to examine all people and doctrines for truth, and reject false teachers and doctrines:
"10 The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so." (Acts 17:10-11, NASB)
"But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good" (1 Thessalonians 5:21, NASB)
"Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15, NASB)
"2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, 4 and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths." (2 Timothy 4:2-4, NASB)
"10 Reject a factious man after a first and second warning, 11 knowing that such a man is perverted and is sinning, being self-condemned." (Titus 3:10-11, NASB)
What will you do with this information? If any of you are wondering if we have attempted to contact Joyce Meyer's, the answer is yes. We have attempted contacting Joyce Meyer's through emails and by phone, yet no reply. Our conclusion is she does not want to discuss this and we urge you to share this vital information with those who listen to Joyce Meyer's. If you have any questions concerning what we have shared we would encourage you to contact us.

(Luke 24:44-47, NASB)
"Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, 'It is finished!' And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit." (John 19:30, NASB)
Jesus taught that His death and shed blood was sufficient for the atonement of our sins. When Jesus said "It is finished" He was teaching an absolute truth that the payment for sin was paid in full. The Greek of "It is finished" is "tetelestai" which was a common way of saying dept paid in full, it is done.
*
What Does Born Again Mean?
Simply put being born again means becoming a new creation in Christ. Jesus taught Nicodemus what born again meant in John 3:1-21 and the message was simple. A person either accepts or rejects that Jesus came to this world to save anyone of their sins. What does it mean to accept Jesus? Jesus came first to the Jews, then after His death and resurrection the message was for the apostles to go to all people. To accept Jesus means you acknowledge you are in need of being saved, (John 3:14-18) that you believe Jesus was the Messiah and God come in the flesh, (John 8:24) that Jesus had the same authority and equality as the Father, (John 5:18-23 & John 10:30) that Jesus was the only way to the Father and for salvation, (John 14:6) that Jesus taught the Father, the Holy Spirit and Himself were three distinct personages from one another. (John 14-16)
John the apostle teaches what born again means:
"4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith. 5 Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?"..."10 The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son. 11 And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life."..."20 And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life." ( 1 John 5, NASB)

What Will You Do?
It is clear that Joyce Meyer teaches another gospel message concerning what born again means and what is required to believe in order to be saved. This information shows Biblically that Joyce Meyer is not teaching the Biblical Gospel message and those who listen to her should be concerned. We believe she is teaching false doctrines of the message of hope and eternal life, and anyone who is serious about wanting to know truth needs to be open to examining this further. This is not an attack on Joyce Meyer in any way, but rather as said before an exposition on what she teaches concerning being born again.
We are warned in the Scriptures to be careful of those who claim to be of God but are in fact wolves in sheep's clothing. There are false prophets & apostles, and false Christ's:
"Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves." (Matthew 7:15, NASB)
"For false Christ's and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.." (Matthew 24:24, NASB)
"28 "Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. 29 "I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. 31 "Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears." (Acts 20:28-31, NASB)
"13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds." (2 Corinthians 11:13-15, NASB)
We are instructed to examine all people and doctrines for truth, and reject false teachers and doctrines:
"10 The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so." (Acts 17:10-11, NASB)
"But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good" (1 Thessalonians 5:21, NASB)
"Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15, NASB)
"2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, 4 and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths." (2 Timothy 4:2-4, NASB)
"10 Reject a factious man after a first and second warning, 11 knowing that such a man is perverted and is sinning, being self-condemned." (Titus 3:10-11, NASB)
What will you do with this information? If any of you are wondering if we have attempted to contact Joyce Meyer's, the answer is yes. We have attempted contacting Joyce Meyer's through emails and by phone, yet no reply. Our conclusion is she does not want to discuss this and we urge you to share this vital information with those who listen to Joyce Meyer's. If you have any questions concerning what we have shared we would encourage you to contact us.

Catholic Ecumenical heretic : Pastor BILL HYBELS coming to Kampala in November 2008.
Hypocrite: Pastor BILL HYBELS coming to Kampala in November 2008.
Pastor Bill Hybels is coming to Kampala in November,2008 to hold a leaders SEMINAR in Imperial royale hotel. Every participant is supposed to pay 50,000(ABOUT 32US$) Uganda shillings. This is a lot of money and so many poor Ugandan pastors can not afford. Therefore his seminar will be dominated by the rich Kampala prosperity pastors. Pastor Loren Davis had a seminar on Sound Doctrine in Kampala in March this year. Bro.Loren sponsored the seminar him self including the meals because he was aware that many African cannot afford to pay. If Bill Hybels wants to equip African leaders to spread the gospel, why charge a lot of money???? Why not put the seminar in a cheap place like Nakivubo stadium, so that the poor can attend. The bible says, you will see them by their fruits.

Weaknesses
Strong ties with Dr Robert Schuller who promotes unbiblical links with other faiths and who in turn, was a disciple of Norman Vincent Peale.
Promotes ecumenism and praises the Roman Catholic Church.Supports Promise Keepers.
Truth Watch: Assessment / Warning
Hybel’s is part of the unbiblical Church Growth Movement that effectively puts ‘people-pleasing’ and and a soft self-esteem message ahead of the true gospel. Christians need to be careful and discerning in utilising any Willow Creek material.
Hybel’s advocates the use of modern marketing methods which are employed in order to discover what people want and then structure programmes in order to make them feel comfortable in church and so enjoy a meeting without feeling guilt or shame. This results in a “soft gospel” presented in an atmosphere glitz and entertainment incorporating drama humour and pop music.
In his book Honest to God it seems that the gospel for man is presented as a relationship with Jesus Christ to avoid “mindless misinterpretations of masculine identity”. Whereas the gospel for the women is that Jesus Christ offers freedom from being people pleasers thus allowing her to “satisfy her need for inner security”.
Willow Creek adopts the unbiblical practice of accepting women in leadership roles and teaching posts.
Both Bill Hybels and his wife have undergone humanistic psychological counselling and the church is reported to employ full time psychologists.
Bill Hybels has served on the board of James Dobson’s “Focus on the Family” which, although it often offers sound biblical advice, also incorporates the false gospel of self esteem.
Books by hardcore psychologist who’s writings are based on Freudian principles are sold and endorsed by Hybels.

Pastor Kiwewesi: Yes, it not prosperity but sin, it is not earthly vanities but eternal verities.
Pastor Kiwewesi: Yes, it not prosperity but sin, it is not earthly vanities but eternal verities.
God is showing the prosperity parrots in Uganda how naïve it is to preach a gospel of material prosperity instead of the Gospel of the Kingdom( Eternal prosperity). The gospel of earthly vanities is a very bogus gospel. The gospel of the kingdom that the Lord Jesus Christ preached and that he commissioned us to preach must focus on eternal verities. Even if you eat the whole world, if sin(sin-tropism) is part and parcel of your life, you will eventually come down.

Despite the cover ups of the sexual and other sins of prosperity Pastors in Uganda , the truth has come out and God’s word has exalted itself.

I one time went to Pastor Kiwewesi’s church and was amazed by the fact that despite the glamour and beauty of the church, a different Jesus is worshipped there.A friend of mine was told by God (in a dream) a few months back that Pastor Kiwewesi’s church was a Esabo(a shine where witchdoctors worship their devils from) and Kiwewesi was the priest in that shrine. This friend of mine was shocked after hearing the scandal in the media.
PASTOR MALE'S LETTER TO PASTOR JOSEPH SERWADDA
http://www.arisingforchrist.org/?p=37#comments
Pastor Kiwewesi has wasted time preaching dominion theology. According to him, the gospel of the kingdom is ‘’never give up till the battle is over’’. The battle he talks about is geared at amassing material wealth and domineering the physical world. He even has a TV programme on LTV where he preaches earthly vanities(material prosperity). He has fornicated with TBN apostates like Benny Hinn . These apostates not preaching cult Christianity(like the catholic church and others) but occultic Christianity. I CALL UPON PASTOR KIWEWESI TO REPENT.The words purity, righteousness, holiness do not seem to be in Pastor Kiwewesi's theology.
From Cultic to Occultic Christianity
I urge the saints especially in Africa to read; Hank Hanegraaf’s well researched expose titled: CHRISTIANITY IN CRISIS, Oregon, Harvest House Publishers, 1997.Dear African saints, please stop this mentality of not reading and researching on issues.It is amazing even some of the elite saints do not want to read and research on issues.You can also buy the DVD,titled; End time rivivals unmasked(see, cutting edge.org-video room)
This book exposes the heresies and occultic doctrines of faith teachers like, Hinn, Copeland, Price etc.
Remember we must search for knowledge as though we were searching for Gold and silver(Proverbs 2).

Uganda’s Evangelicals Shaken By Pedophilia and Sodomy
Uganda’s Evangelicals Shaken By Pedophilia and Sodomy

http://www.yesumulungi.com/Apologetics/Appologs59.htm
Ugandan News Media has been awash with stories of high profile Pastors in Uganda’s Evangelical Church accused of Sodomy and Child Molestation. The latest case has been Pastor Isaac Kiwewesi of Kansanga Miracle Center (www.kmc.ug) who has been accused of sodomizing a church member.
Mr Arinaitwe, who says he was employed at Kansanga Miracle Centre from 2002, has filed a case with Kabalagala Police Station alleging that Pastor Kiwewesi sodomised him between 2006 and 2007 and promised to pay him Shs3 million. “He used me until 2007 when he got married. He promised me Sh3 million for my parents and said he would send me to the US to stay there with his cousin,” he told Daily Monitor on Monday.
Mr Arinaitwe also accuses Pastor Kiwewesi of harassment and threatening him with death after learning that he was coming out with the “secret”. The OC of Kabalagala Police Station, Ms Dorothy Awori, said police are investigating the matter. http://www.monitor.co.ug/artman/publish/regional-special/Pastor_Kiwewesi_denies_sodomy_allegations_72442.shtml
According to the local press, the Prosperity Pastor is currently under investigations and was summoned to the local police station with a warrant of arrest issued against him as he had objected to the summons.
Pastor Kiwewesi is a pastor of a large Mega Prosperity Church in Kansanga, a suburb of Kampala, Uganda’s capital. His Church is an offspring of the Rubaga Miracle Center Cathedral, one of the largest Mega Churches in Uganda, Pastured by Robert Kayanja who frequents as guest speaker of TBN’s Praise The Lord, and has himself over the years been rumored to be engaged in Homosexuality. It is Kayanja who hosted such TBN celebrities as Creflo Dollar and Benny Hinn. (www.kayanja.org)
It is interesting to note that Robert Kayanja the Senior Pastor of Kiwewesi is associated with and close to Paul Crouch who in recent years was accused of Sodomy and had to settle the law suit against him out of court. Another associate of Pastor Kayanja and had ministry ties to Kiwewesi was Pastor Kitaka who was exposed in the local press after sodomizing a teenager. All these Pastors frequent California…

Another story took Uganda’s Evangelical Church by storm when it was reported that a Famous Prosperity Pastor Jackson Ssenyonga was arrested in the USA for molesting a teenage girl on the plane to California… Jackson Ssenyonga Pastors the largest Mega Church in Kampala City with members estimated to 20,000 plus... (http://www.christianlifeministries.org/index.asp)
Pastor Jackson Ssenyonga, the senior pastor of Christian Life Centre was arrested last Saturday for allegedly molesting a 13-year-old girl while on a flight in the United States of America (USA). The Contra Costa Times newspaper in the US reported that Sheriff's deputies (American policemen) apprehended Past Ssenyonga at Oakland International Airport accused of molesting the girl on a flight that originated in Denver to Oakland.

These stories though in some cases inflated by the local press and tabloids in particular, are factual as the victims are real. In Africa, the Law enforcement suffers from corruption and often the offenders go unpunished. Pastors use this weakness to bribe law enforcement out of serious crimes like sodomy.
Many folks from The West, Apostasy seems to be defined only in Western Countries and it is very difficult for such individuals to phantom the idea that the Church in general, globally is experiencing apostasy. However, with the advent of telecommunication and faster transportation, sin, evil, and apostasy in the church seem to be evident every where around the globe. Apostasy has become global. If there is an instance of Apostasy you can name in the West, be sure you will find it in some other country that clinches on Western Ideology.
The Church in Africa has not been immune to sin and apostasy. Just like in the West, The Love of money has been a source of all kinds of evil in the African Church. Almost all types of vices associated with apostasy in the Western Church are clearly visible in the African Church especially in Uganda, a country though very poor yet fancies in the Hollywood type of lifestyles especially among the “African Middle Class”.

What this means is that as the secular “African Middle Class” grows and yearns for more of Hollywood and pomp lifestyles, the ‘spiritual’ “African Middle Class” seeks for counterparts in the West to satisfy the desire for more materialism but using the Gospel as a means to cover the nakedness and shame associated with such a vice in the midst of people without.
So, the prosperity gospel has been a vehicle through which greed can be fully exercised without the fear of guilt from the poor whose silence by what they see is an indictment to the “African Middle Class” – their irresponsibility in caring for the poor. You often hear statements like, “give all you have to the Pastor and God will take away your poverty…” The Pastor then ends up living in a Million Dollar Mansion and driving a Hummer – in Africa, in the midst of very poor and malnourished people.
Ugandan Pastors normally frequent Western Capitals in search for “Donations” and “Sponsors” to help build large churches – Mega Churches in Uganda. It is in this search for money that many fall prey to Sodomites and Pedophiles in the West who use Christianity as Cover.
When the Ugandan Pastor returns to Africa, they begin to prey on their congregations by Sodomizing and committing acts of Pedophilia to the young. Such vices are not only sanctioned to the Western Church but now the African Church has to deal with them. The believers in Africa have not only had their little resources stolen by Prosperity Preachers but now are sodomised and molested by those who claim to represent Christ. Western Christians continue to give to such ministers so as to report big numbers in their yearly budgets. My prayer is that you will stop supporting such conmen, thieves, thugs, robbers, sodomites, pedophiles who pretend to represent Christ but don't!

You often hear statements like, “give all you have to the Pastor and God will take away your poverty…” The Pastor then ends up living in a Million Dollar Mansion and driving a Hummer – in Africa, in the midst of very poor and malnourished people.
Ugandan Pastors normally frequent Western Capitals in search for “Donations” and “Sponsors” to help build large churches – Mega Churches in Uganda. It is in this search for money that many fall prey to Sodomites and Pedophiles in the West who use Christianity as Cover.
When the Ugandan Pastor returns to Africa, they begin to prey on their congregations by Sodomizing and committing acts of Pedophilia to the young. Such vices are not only sanctioned to the Western Church but now the African Church has to deal with them. The believers in Africa have not only had their little resources stolen by Prosperity Preachers but now are sodomised and molested by those who claim to represent Christ. Western Christians continue to give to such ministers so as to report big numbers in their yearly budgets. My prayer is that you will stop supporting such conmen, thieves, thugs, robbers, sodomites, pedophiles who pretend to represent Christ but don't!
