The Council of Churches in Zambia (CCZ) has commended the Zambia Police Service for its swift action in the arrest of a named pastor while in church, for defiling and impregnating a 15 year old girl.
CCZ General Secretary Suzanne Matale has since cautioned girls to be wary of church leaders who take advantage of them while pretending to offer help and solace.
Reverend Matale says Girls must not allow themselves to be exposed to situations that put them in danger and may lead to them being defiled.
She says CCZ continues to urge the church through its leaders to use the pulpit as an available tool in advocating for an end to defilement and speak against the evil act which has robbed girls the peace they deserve.
Reverend Matale notes that the Church has not been spared of this evil act and unfortunately the leaders who are given the responsibility to teach against the vice are in the forefront of perpetuating this act of violence against the girls.
She has also urged the Zambia Police Service not to relent but comb the House of God of all perpetrators of defilement which they have been using to lure victims especially young girls in the name of offering help.
Reverend Matale has also reminded the men of God, that it is high time they provided the society with leadership in the fight against defilement and not take the lead as perpetrators as this will cause people to lose confidence in the church and view it as a house of evil and not of good.
She states that men of God must at all times take the responsibility of protecting the girls from all forms of violence and not to do the exact opposite.
Reverend Matale further calls on the church to cleanse itself from the bad name it has attracted by looking out for people who abuse their leadership positions which they have been entrusted with.
Sad development from them Men of Gold! Girls beware!
Cant agree more
self criticism is key in leadership
take the log out of you own aye before you tell others to remove the spec.
timely advice, full of wisdom
Thank you for the timely word. People need to be wary of perverts hiding in the church who urgently need help themselves. Most of this perversion takes place in deliverance and counselling sessions where they take advantage of the vulnerable, gullible and ignorant people in the name of being leaders. Let the law smoke them out if the church fails to discipline them and report them to the police. In the new covenant believers have direct access to the Father through Jesus Christ and the role of the five fold Ministry is to equip the church for the work of the Ministry and not for the Five fold ministry doing the work so that Christians start marvelling at the power working through them.
Meant and not only for the Five Fold Ministry
True education is needed in the church on how to identify perverts in the church and pulpit who could be men or women.
By their fruit you will recognize them, Matthew 7:16. These guys are false Christians and the catholic priests lead the pack of these ravenous sex predators. Educate your daughters to be very alert and to never trust anyone including bishops.
The sad thing is it is not only children that have been vulnerable but single and married people desperate for solutions to life’s challenges.
A wolves in ship skin. Let the law deal firmly with the culprit.
I hope CCZ are sure this is the man responsible
Are you also one of those he bonks?
Is this the ecclessia that Christ established? The modern institutional church is so full of sin and it does not represent Christ in anyway. It is a instead a platform for self ordained pastors to enrich themselves by dominating the congregants and abusing authority using misinterpreted scriptures and half baked sermons.
Who is this defiler?
Whats wrong with men of God, is it’s because we have a lot of fake pastors. Please work on your nyele azibusa(pastors).
Sad dead
No. We have more press reporting. We do not even have more disasters – there are cameras, lights and eyes EVERYWHERE now. Nowhere to hide. That is why the Church has moved into the new arena of distancing themselves; previously they would transfer a guy like that and quietly offer prayers to the victim and the family…
These are not men of God but men of the devil. They pretend to be such but their deeds reveal them to the public. There are a lot of Tuntemba churches with useless selfish thieving pastors… shame on you …..
Thanks to the media you are trying to control we now know them!
There is no censorship of up coming Churches in our Country.People come here to form Churches on one or two things.
First they want to get identified by the locals through corrupt minds of our own Nations even if they know that, that one is a foreigner.Money has taken toll on people because of high poverty levels.
Secondly there is too much of FALSE PROPHETS.Advertisements of healing sessions on our ZNBC and other house medias.Me I will never be a believer in these so called crusades and other over night prayers.Because this is where defilement cases are coming from.Some one is born lame.They go our TV and say the blind will see and the lame will walk.Could they kindly stop cheating people please.wHO HAS TOLD THESE SO-CALLED REVERENDS AND BISHOPS THAT.Breakfast prayers you need to pay…
Tell us the real churches in Zambia?
pls girls be careful about your self because you are so amazing
