So because Mbaka prophecies come to pass, the Archbishop wants to ban him from preaching? Did Mbaka make it so? No. He only saw it coming and made public what he saw, how is that his fault?

The Archbishop is simply a politician whose interest got rubbished, it wasn't done by Mbaka, so he can go chop shiit.

Very funny.

Any attempt to stop Father Mbaka will compel him to pitch tent with the not-so popular rite of the Catholic Church.

Consequently, the Roman Catholic Church would lose because he's the most influential priest in Nigeria today

That was exactly what happened to Father Edeh.

And nobody financially supports the Catholic Church in the East like Mbaka...nobody

He must obey the church's authority or if he chooses to leave, which I believe he will toe that part, farewell to him

In 2002, he prophesied that the then Governor of Enugu State, Chimaroke Nnamani, would not return to office in the election but the governor won a second term.

Focusmind:
My Lord Bishop, I support your statement fully. Mbaka is seriously spoiling the image of the Church.

I wished that Cardinal Okogie was the Bishop of Enugu Diocese. He would have ex-communicated the man sharply.

I don't know why Catholic Bishops in the East are docile when compared to West and North. If you are a Catholic priest in those area, do any how, and see any how.

Talk of Adewale Martins, Okogie, Mathew Hassan Kukah, Onaiyekan and co.

The Bishops in the East are always soft with priests that are misbehaving

Pusyiter:
Just because you do not have the gift of prophecy does not mean you should be jealous and want to crucify the man.
I am not his advocate but my take is: if he prophesied and it did not come to pass, men will condemn him as being fake
Now, he prophesied and it came to pass, they are calling him political prophet
Wetin man go do wey person no go talk
If God revealed something to him, he should say it. I am tired of hearing popular prophesies and all men ranting a loud AMEN yet nothing happens
This man prophesied for and against Buhari yet we call him name
Abeg, make I come dey go bo....una tire person......

Priests have to tell people how to vote, not whom to vote for

Fr. Dwight Longenecker

CRUX CONTRIBUTOR


They say you should not discuss religion, sex or politics in polite company, so when a priest discusses sex or politics, two of the three explosive topics are on the table, and the third’s there implicitly.

It seems there are two places the faithful do not want their priest: the bedroom and the voting booth. Unfortunately, we cannot turn off our faith once we leave church. A priest’s duty is to advise his flock on every aspect of life-and that includes both sex and politics.

When it comes to politics, there are some clear guidelines. As a private citizen, a priest is entitled to speak his mind about candidates and say whom he might vote for, but he should be clear that he is merely voicing his own opinion.

In a priest’s official capacity, he should speak out against injustice, corruption, violence, greed and lust, and he should speak out against clear violations of human rights on particular issues.

Is is not only a priest’s right, but also his duty to speak out against Nazism, Communism, abusive Capitalism, Jihadism and every other ungodly ideology. Priests should also speak out against particular issues like war, capital punishment, abortion, slavery, unjust wages, and crimes against marriage.

If need be, a priest can speak out against a particular candidate when that candidate takes an open stance on these issues. He must be careful, however, not to speak against the person in particular, but against the candidate’s or their party’s positions.

Priests are called to be courageous witnesses in the public square, and church history is full of priests who have stood up to the powers of this world. Whether it’s Poland’s St. Stanislaus and Jerzy Popieluszko, England’s Thomas Becket, El Salvador’s Oscar Romero, Germany’s Bishop von Galen, they have spoken against the crimes of corrupt leaders and paid the price.

To put it simply, Catholic priests have a duty to tell people how to vote, but not whom to vote for. This sounds like a tightrope, but it is not a difficult one to walk. The rule is that a priest advises his people on issues and principles that inform their conscience as Catholics, and then encourages them to vote responsibly.

As Americans go to the polls in November, most are conscious of the two presidential candidates. Given their records, personal character and party platforms, it is difficult for faithful Catholics to be completely enthusiastic about either.

However, voters should remember that they are not only electing a president. A total of 469 seats in the U.S. Congress (34 Senate seats and all 435 House seats) are up for election. Also twelve states will elect governors, not to mention elections to state legislatures elections for mayor to major cities and a multitude of local elections.

The presidential candidates get the most attention, but great good can be accomplished through the election of reliable and virtuous congressmen/women and local and state officials.

To help American citizens, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has published Forming Consciouses for Faithful Citizenship a two part summary which can be used as handouts in parishes and are available on the USCCB website. Pastors and people should make use of these resources in order to choose wisely.

It is always about money in the East.

The Catholic Church in the East has been bastardised to the extent that an average Catholic from any other part of the world may be forgiven if they thought they had mistakenly stepped into a Pentecostal service during Mass in the East.

We see a lot of them trying to export their "ministry" shit to other parts of the country especially the west.

It is a big shame.

The Catholic Church of 2,000 years old is now competing with mushroom churches that I'm older than.

Shame!

A strict bishop would have both Edeh and Mbaka sent to Rome to become acolytes for the time being while they learn exactly what it means to be a Catholic priest.

Their 9 years in the Seminary has been a big waste.

SoNature:


Go and do research about the Catholic Church rites. It will help you. Until then, you will never understand my position.

osydennyz:
This Fr Mbaka issue is turning into something else......Other Catholic priest might want to venture into giving prophecies whether it's from God or not......I remember TB Joshua prophecy before the United States 2016 elections....After the opposite happened he came out to tell his critics they are not on the same spiritual level....
