THE BODY OF CHRIST SHOULD BE WEARY OF CALLING FOR BL00D BATH IN THE COUNTRY
By Col Hamwiinde Munamunungu ( Rtd )
Some statements coming out from some prominent men of God are alarming and uncalled for. Preaching bloodbath before, during and after the 2026 Presidential and General Elections is being alarmists and not being sensitive to the situation that might arise.
Any bloodbath will never be selective because everyone will be a victim and includes the same men of God.
It is a pity that our religious leaders might have not been to countries destabilized by wars. Angola, across the road, could have been a perfect example to see the destruction of life and property in the 70s.
The peace, this Zambia has enjoyed since independence should never be taken for granted. Through careless talk we can easily lose it and regret big time.
All genuine men of the Collar should pray for peace, preach peace, prophesy peace,dream peace, talk peace, laugh peace, dance peace and open their eyes in peace.
Men of the collar should never succumb to political manipulation for money and property. This is unbiblical and satanic.
From what they say in public and preach on the pulpit, we are able to see political crookedness in them. This is dangerous.
What is very interesting though is that one regional grouping is in the forefront while the rest of the country remains sober in their preaching and sharing the word of God.
Let us all guard against calling for war, let us register as voters and use our democratic right to change any government, not of our liking, than through throwing stones at each other.
Have a blessed Sunday.
One Zambia One Nation
Men of God and Prophets have for ages warned society of impending doom.
The Bible is based on this message.
Prophets like Jeremiah, Amos, Ezekiel and Hosea prophesized doom and blood shed for Israel due to the People ‘s sins. Jeremiah famously foretold the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians.Amos announced the coming captivity for the northern kingdom.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong for Arch Bishop Dr Alick Banda warning the nation of Blood Shed and doom if Bad Governance continues in Hakainde’s Zambia.
Those who have ears let them listen to the words of Archbishop, take heed and change course.
Thank you.
You cannot compare the Prophets of the Bible with a political cadre like Alick Banda. Don’t use the bible to support your evil agenda.
The destruction spoken of was what God warned the nation of Israel because they were breaking their covenant with him through idolatry, injustice, and disobedience. The warnings were a way to call them back to a right relationship with him by emphasizing the consequences of their actions, such as losing their land and facing destruction, and also to offer a path to forgiveness and restoration through repentance.
Alick Banda speaks of violence as if he was born after 2021. There was real violence during the pf era, and the catholic church was conspicuously quiet as pf cadres murdered innocent Zambians. How many pf cadres have been killed by the Police after August 2021?
By the way, are you aware of the involvement of the Catholic church in the 1994 Rwanda genocide?
His Grace, the Arch Bishop of Lusaka is not calling for Blood Shed, he is warning of Blood Shed. This is within his calling.
Arch Bishop Telesphore Mpundu supported a position which was in line with the Opposition UPND , but when the same Bishop started
Calling out the UPND ‘s bad governance, he was insulted and became a political cadre.
The state of Governance under Mr Hakainde Hichilema is a recipe for disaster. Any one can see this. But off course some have chosen not to see.
Regarding the Catholic Church and the Rwanda Genocide..The Catholic Church wasn’t part of the Genocide. Only an SDA obsessed with the Catholic Church can parade these fake stories. This said There were individual Hutu Priests whose homilies might have inflamed resentment towards the Tutsis.
The Historical relationship between the minority Tutsis and majority Hutus , and the french colonialist roles in what was seen as the structural subjugation of the Hutus needs to be understood for one to know the genesis of the Rwanda Genocide of 1994. And the revolt of the Hutus didn’t start in 1994.
Read the history of Rwanda ,then you will understand the ethnic conflicts which have plagued the
Country for ages.
The Catholic Church was never an architect of the Genocide. This is an erroneous and false narrative championed by enemies of the church.
Cont’.
No Catholic Bishop, Priest was ever indicted or brought before the Arusha Courts on the Rwandan Genocide.
Kindly note this.
Bad governance is only in your head.
Bad governance is only in your head.
In the nearest future, it’s possible one can write a play book like the “The Lion and the Jewel” by WOLE SOYINKA.Some clergy can be the main actor.I can watch the way politics is being conducted in our country.Here is a clergy man who can not just say something without exhibiting his political orientation.Some certain expressions are not necessary where one seeks peace.The over stressed negativity must instead be replaced by peace sentiments of preaching love for each other as one Zambia one people.Why talk about blood? The talk of selective actions are neither here nor there.The President of our country has emphasized a lot on the rule of law and order.Among his promises was to bring order in the country and he further said those that shall break the law are on their own.We are now enjoying peace in the country.The recent countable incidences of violence must not cause alarming statements.Those who break the law with impunity shall be arrested regardless of political affiliation and we have heard this from the Home Affaires Minister.
Point of correction. Whereas Archbishop Alick Banda was busy socialising with the notorious PF (he was close to the late former president Lungu), retired Archbishop Tresphore Mpundu was a tireless critc of the excesses of the PF regime.
@JMC
And Today when the retired Arch Bishop Telesphore Mpundu talks about Bad Governance under Hakainde, the man is vilified, insulted and called a cadre.
But when God decides to call him, the same people who are today insulting him, will want to be center stage with useless Eulogies.
The Zambia Conference Of Catholic Bishops, of which Bishop Dr Alick Banda, is a member took the Patriotic Front to task.
They fought against Edgar Lungu ‘s abuses , and even the infamous Bill 10 .
The Catholic Church mobilised to ensure that the young turned up and voted for Hakainde Hichilema. Am a Catholic, and I know what happened in 2021.. Even in my own home, children woke up at 04:00 hours to go and vote, because the Priests told them so..And this was on the Copperbelt, in Ndola Diocese where Arch Bishop Dr Alick Banda was Bishop.
Today the Catholic Church has become evil..and their Bishops Lucifers.
