RELATED How did this happen? Kenyan cult leader was always hiding in plain sight East Africa News Yesterday It has emerged that the now trending pastor who was a taxi driver in Malindi before he received his calling had demands that his followers had to meet to be part of those who wanted to make the journey to meet their maker through fasting. Many might wonder who Mackenzie is but what is more worrying is the things he allegedly asked his 'followers' to do. 1. Stop children from going to school. 2. Burn all school certificates. 3. Women were not to shave 4. Sick people were not to be taken to the hospital to seek treatment. 5. To live within his land, now famously known as Shakahola. 6. Fast to death, as it is one way to see God. The discovery of mass graves in Shakahola Forest near the coastal town of Malindi has shocked Kenyans, and there are fears more corpses could be found as search teams unearthed 17 bodies on Tuesday, with investigators saying children made up the majority of victims of what has been dubbed the "Shakahola Forest m******e". Kenya's government has vowed to crack down on fringe religious outfits in the largely Christian country.

When I call it blind faith it is understatement. What length are people willing to reach so as to seek the Kingdom of God. I just hope they will see the Kingdom they really desired. You might think that the so called pastor targeted the illiterate but am sorry to disappoint you. Below is a highlight about an air hostess journey to meet Jesus. Details about how a Kenyan woman quit her successful career in Qatar to return to Kenya to join Pastor Mackenzie's cult are now emerging Betty Ajenta Charles is believed to have joined the cult a few weeks ago, just weeks after her nine-year-old son died in the cult She contacted her friend days before joining the sect, and after they met, she left her with a necklace bearing her dead son's name. Shakahola, Kilifi - It is now emerging that an air hostess who had a high-flying job in Doha, Qatar, is one of the people who sold everything and quit her career to join Pastor Mackenzie's Kilifi cult. Betty's parents are believed to be senior members of Mackenzie's church, and it is alleged they had Betty's nine-year-old son Jason also starve to death. He died in March 2023. Betty's sister Constance Chao also quit her military job to join the cult, and her husband does not know if she is alive or dead. They say, The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. I think we feared too much that we are easily brain washed. Anybody can be a victim,we really need God's favor and guidance. Worship centres are having more scandalous event day in day out, It might be a sign of the end of the world. Be your brothers or sisters keeper. Treat people as family. Time is not constant,and same applies to fate. The insignificant people around you can be the best gift God has given you. Doing a good deed makes the soul feel at peace. And don't do a deed to gain attention,just do it like nobody is watching,just remember, God in heaven is watching and listening to our prayers. Normalize communicating with your God on a personal level. We are all children of God,there is no need of using third parties to talk to God. If you have a problem, Pray to the heavenly father,not just running to the nearest religious leader. We tend to be having Faith in the leaders and not in God. I know it's tuff time for the Shakahola forest victims friends and families,but , I hope it comes as a lesson to all humans on earth,and please don't blindly follow instructions that are below humanity.
