Prophet Emmanuel Makandiwa, founder of United Family International Church (UFIC) apparently said "he is waiting for instructions from God" to begin raising people from the dead.

The prophet's spokesperson Prime Kufa was quoted saying: "in fact he (Makandiwa) said he is waiting for instructions from God to do it publicly as he has done it before."

What's your opinion on such grand statements from modern day prophets?

    I am not a member of UFIC , but i say to you my brethrens , Jesus also said ''some will do more than that i have done because of faith'' , but we are also warned of ''fake prophets'' , so my brethrens in christ ,if we are real christions ,why can't we just stop judging and live these matters to God , for we ourselves will be judged ,

    In the last days great prophets shall rise, they will claim power over God's creation. He who has power to raise the dead is the one who has created the living. Let us not be fooled by these self proclaimed prophets. Justice is at the corner and God is about to punish those that lead the children astray. Let us all pray for the Holyspirit to guide and spare us from such people, for thrugh them the signs of the coming of the Son of Man is drawn nearer.

    We may claim to be capable of doing anything, but of raising the dead is beyond reach. He should have surprised people by raising than telling us that he can. We know people are desperate but to fool people like that is being irresponsible.

    I don't care too much for the shenanigans of Prophet Makandiwa but distaste the way you report on them. Last time a report said he extended a Malawian man's manhood but the report was neither substantiated nor followed upon. Such gutter journalism does nothing for this site that so many of us in the Diaspora depend on for speedy news from Home.

    Some of these prophets do these miracles thru the holy spirit and some thru the devil. I do not know and can not say where Makandiwa falls. Only God knows. Raising people from the dead; i find it a bit scary.

    Before he gets there I suggest he starts by healing TB, HIV and so on than to wait and raise them dead. He must be pro-active than re-active for it's costly to pay for a funeral and a waste of time to let someone go through pain and later resurrect them. You went too far Makandiwa!

    If this man reads the bible in the conventional way, then his own distruction is near. He will die like Thomas with a sound which will surprise those impis who blindly follow him unto their destruction. It's too bad the author employs the word "grand" where "bland" could mean exactly what Makandiwa is doing.
