Why is it that it is mostly women who are associated with crazy things done by modern-day prophets? We are talking of such funny prophet stuff like being sprayed with doom or other similar things \u2013 in the name of Jesus!<\/p>\n
This is the talk of our crew today. This is why we have gathered here at one of our new talk havens \u2013 Baghdad Pub, Mwanza \u2013 just to discuss this issue.<\/p>\n
The convener of the day is \u2018Atsogoleri\u2019 Rob M, who has bull-dozed his way to monopolise a number of tasks, including chairing, just because the bulk of the Crew were his passengers on our way from Blantyre to this border district.<\/p>\n
Of course, during our planning session, held as we shared Kanyenya at Zalewa, we resorted to tackle an issue that does not hinge on alcohol. Thanks to the wisdom of Lackson, we got this subject, which we termed \u2018Of Women And False Prophets\u2019.<\/p>\n
He starts by narrating how the media [or is it social media?] has reported that a certain prophet in the gold haven that is South Africa has been banned from using \u2018Doom\u2019 to exhort evil spirits from people. This \u2018man of God\u2019 made people believe that that chemical, or whatever he called it in the name of the Holy One, could help save sinners and take them to paradise.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know what,\u201d says \u2018Atsogoleri\u2019, \u201cthis is a pertinent topic. Realistically, it is becoming too much of these so-called \u2018prophets\u2019, taking advantage of either ignorance or kupepela kwa anthu, just because people are desperate for either salvation [of course, the main aim is prosperity], then they get subjected to all sorts of funny things.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAtsogoleri, simunama, zinazi zanyanya <\/em>[you are very right \u2018Atsogoleri\u2019, some people go to the extreme! Just imagine these so-called \u2018Holly Water, Holy Soap, and all sorts of Holy useless things.<\/p>\n One of these days, people will be sold \u2018Holy under-wear\u2019 or boxers,\u201d says Joe, attracting laughter even from people who are not part of the Crew.<\/p>\n Happison, who has for long missed the Crew\u2019s sessions, asks to talk uninterrupted. Everyone is surprised that he has acted in the manner, bearing in mind that the rules of the Crew\u2019s talk do not give room for dominance of speech and talk time.<\/p>\n \u201cI do not understand why some of these so called \u2018Prophets\u2019, Apostles, have a palate for ministering mainly to women. They check around and find women that have problems in their homes\u2014 marital problems, among others\u2014 and minister only to such lot? They bring in scaring verses, intimidating them to only listen to their [prophets\u2019] wisdom? Why not try men? Why not go and preach in market places or schools? It is because women are easily deceived or hoodwinked into believing in any \u2018sweet-talk\u2019? Why do the women easily fall for the trap to spend nights and nights on top of hills and mountains in the company of such questionable characters? Zovuta kwabasi<\/em>!\u201d Exclaimed Happison.<\/p>\n \u201cNdiye mwalankhulatu atsogoleri <\/em>[now, that is an uncensored speech]!\u201d says \u2018Atsogoleri\u2019 Rob M, who is quick to add that it is not all prophets and apostles that are in it for money.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Why is it that it is mostly women who are associated with crazy things done by modern-day prophets?
