#southafrica #pastor #crime
We are keeping you in our prayers. These kidnappings are done by illegals coming in and out without being stopped. Never come & do something like this without a dozen safety guards (from your own country).
Something fishy about this. These missionaries do some very underhanded things in these communities. Who invited him to this community?
This is awful to see … Dont know why he went to south africa he should have done his research before going there he put his family in danger there too hopefully they will release
Our new god $ will get him back. It’s a bad idea going there.
Praying for Pastors safe return, May the Lord cover him from harm and allow him to share the Gospel even in his current situation. As a South African this is despicable and embarrassing for our nation, this is not a reflection of our people, this is a minority of people that have no morals and absolutely no regard for human life. They are in need of a saviour only Jesus.
Has there been an update on pastor?
Exodus 4:6
Signs for Moses
Then the lord said, "Put your hand inside your cloak." So, Moses put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, the skin was LEPROUS, it had become as WHITE as snow.
4:7
"Now, put it back into your cloak," he said. So Moses put his hand back into his cloak, and when he took it out, it was restored, like the rest of his flesh.
Moses was dark skinned, and whiteness was leprous and unclean. You wonder why white people hate anyone with a tinge of color, because they know that white people were the cursed ones, according to ancient bibles. They (white people), rewrote the bible to flip the script and missionaries came in to under developed countries with their version, to get control of the people and have them worship a white Jesus, therefore, worshipping the white race. Expect anything from the devil. He speaks many languages and is very cunning.
We'll never get Agoa now
Why did they do this?
Finish the Mother’s statement!
These men will face serious justice you do not mess with God. He will find his son and maybe a few of them will be saved before turning themselves in.
Evil has never won against light…. Never!
Praying for this man
The pastor is held for ransom, bit of a problem because the churches always want money but don't give money away ever. Two atheists knocked on my door, they didn't want anything…
We r praying for his safe return.
We dont care
Just show u how Weak and Careless this Goverment is.
The World should know that the Criminals here has more right then Honest Citizens trying to live in Freedom!!
Update: Trump used his non-existent influence to have him rescued. Wow another selective choice of helping those in trouble 😵💫
Hes been rescued from what i heard this morning folks, waiting to hear more.
greetings from 🇿🇦.
Thank God they got him back unharmed 🙏🙏🙏🙏 This country is wild.
