Prophet claiming to be Spirit filled confronts Lion...see What happened 

P

One Alec Ndiwane, a South African prophet who paraded himself as the ‘Biblical Samson’, recently challenged a lion to a battle in the Kruger National Park, saying he was filled with the Holy Spirit.

Ndiwane, Genral Overseer of Zion Christian Church based in Pretoria, was said to have visited the Park with fellow church members where they were watching the animals.

A few minutes into their visit, the prophet (self-acclaimed ‘Biblical Samson) started to speak in tongues, DailyPost SA reports.

The prophet alighted from the vehicle and went charging towards the lions. Upon seeing the man running towards them, the lions ran towards the prophet.

As though cajoled into the act, Ndiwane quickly realised himself and reportedly made an immediate turn and ran back to safety.

However, before he could safely reach the confines of the car, one lion had snapped its paws on him, causing major damage.

The game ranger was said to have come to his rescue after he reportedly fired some shots with his gun to scare the lion away.

The prophet, according to the report, was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery.

Speaking on the incident, the ‘Biblical Samson said he was still in shock how everything happened.

He said, “I do not know what came over me.

“I thought the Lord wanted to use me to show his power over animals.

“Is it not we that have been given dominion over all creatures of the earth?” Ndiwane noted.

"CAN has become a shadow of itself" - Rt Rev. Dr. Ali Lamido 

 

 

 Rt. Rev. Dr. Ali Buba Lamido,The Bishop of Zaria diocese, Anglican Communion, has recently expressed displeasure and disappointment over the leadership crisis in the Christian Association of Nigeria,CAN, stating the complete disconnection of the Christian body from the unique primary constituency it is meant to represent. In a press statement issued to newsmen in Kaduna,Thursday, the Bishop noted that recent developments in the CAN calls for serious concern.

        He said, “The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), in recent times has become a shadow of itself. The leadership of CAN has gradually, in its thirst for power, material gain and opulence made government constituency. “Pulpits have been reduced to campaign platforms for politicians. The leadership of the Christian body at different levels is now an avenue for some avaricious few to make money. “Men of God have turned to lovers of money and power. The Christian body seems to be at ease with the corruption from all sectors of the country and treat their members with cavalier contempt.” The Bishop added, “As a matter of fact, the leadership is completely disconnected from its primary constituency, the Christians it was meant to represent. CAN should be able to put its house in order to sustain its rule within different denominations and promote cross pollination of ideas in various Christian communities.

       “CAN should devise the means of financing tithe association instead of relying on government to fund its activities. Member Churches should be made to pay their dues and also contribute generously so as to run the association effectively. “Making government houses to look like ATM machines is unacceptable. I feel very strongly that part of the reason why CAN will always find it difficult to challenge the government is hinged on the saying that he who pays the piper dictates the tune.” He expressed discomfort that Christian leaders were advocating the zoning of CAN leadership to certain regions of the country. “It is most unfortunate that Christian leaders at this time of trying to unite the country would be playing the ethnic card,” he added.

        Rt. Rev. Lamido noted that the leaders were supposed to be the ones to de-emphasize tribal or regional sentiments, stressing, “I think what CAN needs are men of integrity, who are ready to go to any length to see that the Church in this country is united and also takes its place. Men who do not see CAN leadership as the sumptuous softness of palace splendor.

        “As the election for CAN officials draw nearer, l call on those responsible for the voting to vote men who have what it takes to move the association forward. We cannot continue this way. We cannot kill this association in our time.”
