ANSWERS

 - Moses originated prophecy ,this cannot be denied ,as it is supported by Deuteronomy 18:18 and Deuteronomy 34:10.Moses as a prophet received a call when experienced a vision of burning bush ,this is recorded in Exodus 3:1 .In Zimbabwean context, number of so many prophets claim to have experienced calls this include ,Uebert Angel who claimed to have been visited by 50 Angels ,Zimbabwean scholars like Kudzai Biri and Ibid wrote that Makandiwa claimed he received a call when he experienced a vision of burning bush in Muzarabani Village at a tender age ,Isabel Mukonyora in her work entitled "The Dramatization of Johane Masowe" submitted that Masowe experienced a vision of burning bush in Mt Marimba ,this has been further supported by Dillon in his work entitled "Korstekn Basketmakers".All this shows us that Zimbabwean church leaders perpetuate the prophetic traditions of Moses .

 - Moses had an ability of performing miracles ,this was dotted throughout the exodus event. In Zimbabwean context, performing miracles cannot be separated from Zimbabwean prophets ,Bulawayo24.com and Newsday in 2016 17March recorded story of Paul Sanyangore who claimed to have walked on water in Harare "swimming pool". Ebert Angel claimed to have raised more than 24 dead people. W .Magaya perform healing miracles on daily basis ,Spectacle prophet "Freddy" is well known of performing miracles using spectacles same applies to the Apple "Fordrick" prophet who has been recoded by local media performing several miracles using apple. Therefore, this indicates that Zimbabwean church leaders perpetuate the prophetic traditions.

 - Moses was a covenant mediator ,as such he was given a Decalogue, which had sets of laws. This is recorded in Exodus 20:1 and Exodus 33 .Number of so many prophets in Zimbabwean context emphasize on following the covenant /Decalogue is the theme of their message .This include Makandiwa who was quote by Christ TV discouraging his church in committing adultery, stealing and e.t.c .Isabel Mukonyora wrote that Masowe was commissioned to be the messenger of all Africans, spreading the gospel of repentance and destroying "mishonga" (fighting for worshipping of one God". All this indicates that Zimbabwean church leaders perpetuate the prophetic traditions of Moses.

 - It can be argued that not all Zimbabwean prophets perpetuate the prophetic traditions of Moses as they are some who originate new things. [examples can be added ]
