President Museveni with the so called African Bible |
Comment
This is an interesting
observation….religion in Uganda
has become a den of hypocrites . …I think he is also indirectly attacking evangelicals
who always come out with mammoth gatherings where Christians pray for
materialism i.e. posh cars, corporate jobs, posh houses , land , buildings etc You
will never see a pastor organize a
mammoth prayer gathering against corruption, human sacrifice, immorality etc.
You are right ..this is also an
attack on his wife who calls her self a ‘born again’ Christian but has
acquired incredible wealth from a source
Museveni knows very well.
Yes, the country has many Christian hypocrites but also backslidden Christians (like President Museveni himself )who are mere spiritual politicians.

Museveni blames believers for evils in Uganda

President Yoweri Museveni has blamed confessed God believers in Uganda for the increasing evilsPresident Museveni Holds Holy bible |
President Yoweri Museveni has blamed confessed believers in Uganda for the increasing evils faced in the country today.
He
said 85 percent of the population in Uganda is Christians while 12
percent are Muslims making 97 percent believers in God but wondered why
cases of murder, sexual immorality, human sacrifice, corruption and
embezzlement among others exist in the country.
In a
message read for him by the Vice President Edward Kiwanuka Ssekandi
during the Seventh Day Adventist annual end of year prayer and
thanksgiving conference at Namboole Stadium on Sunday, Mr Museveni said
that Uganda is one of the richest countries on earth and most pleasant
to live in if believers lived according to God’s instructions.

The
President said if believers aspired to be God fearing people and
faithful stewards living in harmony with each other, respecting the
environment and genuinely loved God, the country would be the most
peaceful place and full of blessings than it is even today.
Museveni
implored the church not to get tired of combining the teaching of God’s
word with general life skills, adding that people should be taught to
work hard for an honest living to create wealth and ensure that poverty
is eradicated
The president also said that while government is ensuring the
improvement of access to basic social services including roads, schools
and health centers, it is the duty and responsibility of all Ugandans to
fight poverty in their homes.

friendship, tolerance and love to all

pandemic saying it is still a social economic problem and that it was
the church’s responsibility to advise the country’s youths to guard
against the scourge.

“I also urge the church to be
vigilant and guide the country’s youth and children in the way they
should grow as responsible people. Society continues to be infiltrated
by errant and abominable behavior that is eroding especially the young
generation,” he said.
Bishop James Kaggya thanked God
for taking Ugandans through the year 2014 and prayed for the protection
and guidance of all Ugandans and the country’s leadership in the New
Year.
