VIDEO: NIGERIAN PASTOR WARNS ZAMBIAN AUTHORITIES

In a sermon posted on youtube, Nigerian preacher Apostle Johnson Suleman is warning Zambian authorities for 'touching' his disciples overseeing churches in the country.

It's not clear why Apostle Suleman is lashing out at a country that offers open arms to Christians and their missions, local or foreign, even when some of them abuse their platform.

Of interest is a statement suggesting if any of Apostle Suleman's men are touched, then he too is touched and the country should brace for consequences.

That sounds strange.

We are drawn to 1 Chronicles 16:22 which states, "...touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm."

In the passage, scripture instructs us not to touch God's anointed. Not anyone's anointed.

We are taken aback by Apostle Suleman's statement, or is it sermon? It's not God's plan that those blessed with the gifts of the spirit should pronounce threats to nations.
