A Harare constituency MP Terence Mukupe has said if the Muslims were giving funds to Primary and Secondary Education ministry to build schools they must be applauded compare to the current modern churches which preach prosperity and are concerned with receiving than giving.
"There are two things that caught my attention in social media last week. First was an article that alleged that Muslims were giving Hon Minister Lazarus Dokora's ministry funds to build schools... Muslim Schools. Secondly there were deplorable and sickening pictures posted by my brother in the struggle Hon Justice Mayor Wadyajena of Buno Primary School in Gokwe Nembudziya," he posted on his Facebook wall.
"As a Christian a charismatic and Pentecostal one, I was brought up to rebuke anything that's got any Muslim leaning. Over the years I've grown to look into issues objectively without losing my spiritual beliefs."
Mukupe said in Zimbabwe there were White missionaries building schools all over the country.
"These pre- independence white Christians did a lot of good. Their gospel was about giving. Come post independence we now have the emergence of the "Papa Prophets" who only preach what is termed the prosperity gospel. The rallying cry is no longer "I give" but its now " I receive"!!!" he said. "So the modern day church it's no longer a giver but a receiver of gifts!!! Aah well the Muslims have come and given you the gift of schools so in line with the new rallying cry shout "I receive Papa Major Prophet!!!"
"I applaud the Muslims for all the good work they are doing in this nation. They are sinking boreholes, providing free medication, availing social amenities, feeding the hungry," he added.
He said one should go to Belvedere to a beautiful Muslim neighbourhood and see the water taps providing free water outside the homes of these "ISIS" loving Muslims.. and guess what, Christians are rushing there to collect the water and shouting "I receive Papa Major Prophet"!!!
"This is a clarion call to those that think they are Christians... less empty talk and over spiritualising things... build schools moga and leave the Muslims alone if they are offering a helping hand!!!" he said.
