The founder of the Zimbabwe Assemblies of God Africa Forward In Faith Ministries (ZAOGA FIF), Archbishop Ezekiel Guti, seems to have made plans for his impending death
Archbishop Guti passed away on Wednesday, and Joseph Guti, national executive chairman of ZAOGA FIF, made a solemn declaration of his passing through a special statement on the Ezekiel TV channel.
Guti celebrated his 100th birthday on 5 May.
It turns out, however, that Archbishop Guti had warned his flock in his book, aptly titled “The African Apostle,” which functioned as both an autobiography of his early life and a testimonial to his years as a minister of the Word of God.
Guti warned the ZAOGA FIF members who strongly depended on him as a source of strength within the book’s pages. He revealed the unavoidable end in store for those who put all of their confidence in him as their rock.
Once he left, such people would be misled, according to Guti. He made it clear that the only people who would survive were those who strictly followed his words of wisdom. He stated in a moving conclusion that the ZAOGA FIF members will now be made fun of once he dies.
“If people lean on me as their source of strength, they will be led astray when I am gone because they will say ‘our strength is gone’. Only those who kept my teachings will survive. Those who used to hear you saying God is present because the servant of God is present will laugh at you saying “Your God is gone”,” wrote Ezekiel Guti in the opening pages of his book, “The African Apostle.”
