Proprietor of Namirembe Christian Fellowship Church Pastor Professor Simeon Kayiwa has urged all pastors in Uganda to always be united, love and forgive each other while executing their work because they are all preaching the word of God.
Kayiwa made the revelation following the death of Pastor Augustine Yiga aka “Abizaayo” of Revival church located at Kawala Kampala district basing on negative comments made to the deceased by some people including pastors specifically, Pastor Jackson Ssenyonga of Christian Life Church Bwaise Kampala saying people should learn how to treat a person whether he/she is dead or not because its God who knows mostly the sins and good deeds of that person.
Its noted that immediately after the announcement and death of Pastor Augustine Yiga, his colleague Pastor Jackson Ssenyonga held a press conference and revealed negative information about the deceased saying he died a incompetent, comedian fake, pastor among others in the same category which later forced other people to also attack Pastor Jackson Ssenyonga verbally over his irresponsible statements as among a famous pastors in Uganda.
Pastor Simeon Kayiwa says judging a dead person negatively is not civilized despite there are disagreements and differences because today its me and tomorrow is someone else.
“I wonder why people always judge others negatively, Pastor Augustine Yiga died a good Pastor depending on his last 3 words he said which is, you need and have to be united, together and also to pray,” he said.
Kayiwa says that, these 3 words Pastor Yiga said before his death quoted them in Bible that were also used by Jesus Christ in such a terrible situation adding that its hard for a sinful person to be guided by such wisdom and repent message.
Kayiwa also remembered Christians about a man in a bible who was also judged by some people negatively immediately after his death that he is going to hell basing on a way he used to behave before his death, but due to last words a man said before his death, helped him to die as a saint.
“I respect each and everybody’s ideology, but I disrespect persons who attack others negatively especially dead ones, therefore I don’t want to see and hear again Pastor Jackson Ssenyonga acting and behaving irresponsibly,” he said.
Kayiwa urged his fellow pastors to respect and love each other, be honest to preach the word of God in a responsible manner.
