Rwanda is a tiny country and it's easier to regulate a lot of issues. Kenya is equal to 26 Rwanda's thus it's like regulating 26 other smaller States. I laud Rwanda for the progress they have made . However it's also easier to regulate a small country. Nigeria on the other hand is equal to 40 Rwanda's. You get the picture??
Dear Brothers and Sisters, Greetings from Kigali Rwanda. Thank you for the good video, from ourside, Rwanda Governance Board, when they close churches, they state that, The CHURCH is an association that must meet the standards of LEADERSHIP. The Government as well has warned Pastors to be careful on their teaching of collecting finances from Believers for their only benefits. The Government rather expect the churches to contribute in the good wealth of believers
The Big GOs Will Rebel Against The Government. During The COVID Shut Down, A Particular GO Stood In Opposition To The Government Saying The Nigerian Government Has An Ulterior Motive In Wanting To Stop People From Coming To Church.
@@irukennaemeka3573Very true. I have lived in an English town for over 20 years and have never seen an American fundamentalist cult called Seventh day Adventism conducting a recruitment public ministry in a big stadium. They do that only in Africa, Botswana in particular. Why???
@@the8thchurch461Take time to read and know more about the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. They are faithful and honest people. They are not cults as you claimed. They are Bible believers who believe Christ Jesus is the only Savior of mankind and the Bible as the only Book of Salvation. They are the Church that teaches salvation by faith alone and the keeping of all the Ten Commandments of God as the evidence of our obedience to God Almighty. May Christ Jesus be with you
Kudos to the Rwanda government! Since churches are now businesses and we have more churches than companies, they should follow the legal procedures of the authorities. This will really help to eliminate pastoral fraudsters, corruptions, and deception.
Nigeria needs this desperately. And for those complaining. This is necessary to regulate the type of churches been produced. Today I can just wake up and start any church I like.
Kagame please come to South Africa and shut them down, we have false prophets, papas, dadas , bishops, lady bishops. You name them we have them, and they're all fake. They all demand money.
yes I seriously recommend similar actions in Nigeria to protect us all from the overzealous Muslims and Christians . But can the present crop of leaders venture into that "delicate" area ? No!!! Religion happens to be the political weapon that helps to sustain poverty on the land.
@@ajibolaolukunle8930YOU my dearest told no lie! The West knew exactly what they were doing when they forced religion on us. It was and still is to regulate or for want of a better word, stop Africans accessing our own resources. Poverty is an industry. If only Africans could see through Christianity. Thanks Mr. Rwanda President. Well done. You obviously love your people. Africans have their own cultures to protect their society from decay.
It is sad that the government has to regulate the church, the church should have been a self regulating institution that checks it’s operation but it has failed and so the government has stepped in to do it in order to protect citizens from those who abuse the system. I see the government asking the church to be accountable and responsive through its action. This could lead to small home fellowships, churches doing the right thing to obey the legal boundaries and closure of some places of worship. I wish it could happen in Nigeria.
Some mugus will demonstrate and protest on the road for their "daddies" not realizing the Government is trying to save them! Unfortunately it can't happen in Nigeria; we need it across board for all religions Christianity, Islam etc
No, they won't. There's this little thing called bribe, make situations stay the same, with no improvements, unless robots go around to shut them down, 'slong as man is closin' them, just 'nother source of illegal income.
We need this badly but the government won't do it. It's keep the mass population docile and distracted while the elite class and politicians are having a field day looting and plundering.
@@globalismoblackmanYOU my dearest told no lie! Religion is there to keep the poor in a permanent state of deprivation while wishing hell on the rich who in turn must laugh behind closed doors in their castles and palaces. Africa needs to wake up.
I think this is a good development because it means that only people with the appropriate requirements will be able to teach people. Apostle Femi Lazarus speaks of something like this happening in Nigeria
I think it is GENIUS! Lying cults like Seventh day Adventism would fail the doctrine test. They claim to have the truth and are the most extreme group.They are extremely abusive as a result, asking people of their blood, taking people's money through so called tithing, and then bullying women to marry young so that they can have more children to increase the population of the church/cult. I wish we had a leader like this man in Botswana. Well done Sir!
No country progress with more churches than warehouses and factories. Rwanda is on the part of economic growth. If happens in Nigeria, it will be the greatest nation in the world.
Your comment concerning factories and warehouses versus churches hints broadly at Rwanda’s problem…poverty. Forty per cent of Rwanda’s people’s live below their own government’s standard of what is considered poverty. Sixty per cent of the people are under thirty years of age and hungry for work. Shutting down churches and mosques won’t solve those issues. As for money-grubbing prophets, that too is evidence to a peoples desperation as they seek help to survive both economically and spiritually. The government must recognize that they not only lead a nation economically but morally and spiritually, but in matters of faith let it be with gentle encouragement. I applaud all Rwanda has done to overcome 1994 but how will closing institutions continue that progress? Rwanda, has more to fear from the political intents of its neighbors than it does from people worshipping God.
@@moety2 Your breathe is His. The life you have, He put it in you. Who are you? If you abuse His graciously given free will to become corrupted, He will take what is His out of you. And you will drop and return the ground where you came from. Think of this analogy: A person makes a computer for a certain purpose, and builds into it capabilities to succeed. Then that computer gets corrupted and goes out of the way to do things you never intended. What do you do? You to try to correct the anomalies. If that doesn't work, you destroy it and rebuild. That is what God does with humanity and all of creation. The flood was cleaning up and restoring orderliness. Records of His word say an end of all ends is coming.
@@patriot_2022 did the unborn or children in the great flood abuse his graciously given free will? The being that created everything couldn’t come up with a better plan other than drowning his creation? Seems way more like a tyrant than some all loving deity. As for your analogy, if I created all the components and the hardware and software of a computer, I knew beforehand all the problems that will happen and choose not to do anything about it, put it all together, then the problems I knew were going to happen, happen, I blame the computer for having the problems and destroy it all while taking no responsibility claiming it was the computers choice for having those problems. This is what your god did unless you want to say it’s not all knowing. Again, something a tyrant would do.
Best decision ever, Nigeria should follow suit. All these Mushroom churches springing up everywhere in Nigeria is an embarrassment. Zero safety involved.
If you are truthful, If churches are closed down in Nigeria, Mosques must be closed as well. Imagine the noise pollution by mosques during call for prayer
This can never happen in Nigeria. It's easier in Rwanda because the Muslims are mere 2% - almost negligible. It's only Christians that can enact and execute such laws. Muslims cannot...and they have a good number (percentage) in Nigeria.
A pastor once told how Muslims gathered and reported him to the police that he's disturbing the community with the sounds from his church. The police wrote to the pastor who also approached the state chairman of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria which he belonged. The chairman simply gathered his church legal team who wrote to the police that the church will agree to stop using the PA systems on one condition - that the Muslims should also stop the early morning noise that boozes out of the mosque. And since they cannot do without the early morning noise, they lost the case, and the police could no longer prosecute the pastor.
Rwanda is highly disciplined, that is why it is improving in all sectors. Now, with more churches out of business, the world will see how fast Rwanda develops! Rwanda, fantastic job continuing to protect your people!
@elliotjohn8459 Of course. What do you think? Religion was created to keep people poor and happy. It truly is a "see you on the other side" strategy to pacify those who were suffering and living in straitened circumstances.
Really? Had no idea. Had to relocate to get a relief from church noise. There was one just by my window. Service 3 days per week, not counting band practice and prayer cell meetings. Since the pastor lives in the church, when he gets up at night, usually 4 AM to pray, he prays over the mic. If you complain they say you have demons in you. Would've reported if I knew such laws exist in CMR.
@@iBen-jz5xz😂😂😂 I relate to this 💯 The guy so called pastor will always promise to turn down the volume when i went knocking at their door, but as soon as i turned back, they raised it again. I was a demon possessed man and needed deliverance through him.. And I did received it when i finaly moved house. Just for a new church to creep in not too far from my house, for the moment they have no amps, lets Hope it remains that way😂😂😂😂 It's a real plague in our majour cities.
This is a good move by a responsible leadership. In many of our African communities both in africa and abroad , we have turned religion especially churches into businesses. People who can't even make coherent sentences call themselves prophets misleading their followers.
Anyway. So you mean God has allowed it to happen for a reason. Yer like God allowed to persecution to break out upon the disciples in Jerusalem so that they could take the gospel to farther places. There's always a reason why God allows certain things to come against His Church.
As Rwandan who is in Rwanda , the information you give is true . It's hard for some people, but at least all of us here agree it's needed. anywhere the majority of the chuches are still operating. we believe in years to come we will be proud of the outcome.
I am an American and I love it. I will not attend a church without and educated pastor nor a megachurch. There are too many people going into religion for financial purposes only. Great work Rwanda.
I moved to tanzania from Canada. I rented a house next to a church, it was the biggest mistake of my life. Unbeknownst to me, they have night service Tuesday night and Friday nights from 9 pm to 3am. They were bloody loud, making so much noise.o couldn't sleep. After reading Tanzanian rules concerning noise pollution, it specifically mentioned churches and mosques. I recorded the night service, and then I went to the authorities to complain. A meeting was called between the pastor and myself. He was ordered to bring the noise within the specified rules. Since then, it has been good. I couldn't believe that the local people put up with this nonsense without doing anything about it. Yet again, some people don't know the constitution of their own country, and their rights govern therein.
@godsonchikelu6024 Yes. The area chairperson called a meeting between the pastor of the church and myself. I stated that I'm not asking them to stop the oversight service ,rather, I would like them to comply with the rules outlined by the government. They have been complying
@@theafricanjumbee4057you did them a favour. In Cameroon, people get up in the morning with megaphone and make noise all over the place in the name of evangelism.
Thank you Adeola for sharing this. All African countries need to follow Rwanda's example. This is how a country moves forward by setting laws and regulations. Having a call to ministry is not enough. Training and education are very important. Jesus's apostles were called and then they received training by Jesus himself. The church regulations will protect lives, reduce corruption, and make Christianity more appealing to a broader segment of society.
They need to this Southern Africa region. They have terrible noise pollution. The whole neighborhood is forced to listen to sermon. What happened to love your neighbors.....
Adeola this is FANTASTIC I know the church of God must match on nothing stops the gospel but there is a need for accountability and it should be extended to all religious with no exemptions... hopefully all this sheep in wolves clothing will not beat the system. We really need this cleansing/edification all over.
This is Dr Luke from the USA l totally agree with the Government of Rwanda’s new regulations for the establishment and management of Churches and Mosques Let all African countries know this Thanks for sharing
Adeola, As a Christian myself in Nigeria 🇳🇬, I said so, because I am not an unbeliever. I love Jesus and wants the church of Christ to grow. But 1000 Churches and mosque in 1 streets is no no for me. I support this Rewanda new action. We need this in Nigeria 🇳🇬 ASAP. I rented a house here in Lakowe Ibeju Lekki Lagos. Adeola do you know, I don't sleep at night and Morning Because of church and mosques? 😢 Jesus this is depressing. Two churches are facing the house. They hold night vigils at night till 2 am. Once is 2 am I want to close my eyes. Then The central mosque at Oribawa will start by 5 am. These mosques make so much noise with a loud 📢 speaker 🔇. I told a fellow Christian brother that I stopped going to One Redeem close to the house because of their loudspeakers. The day I went to that church I came home with a headache and my ears were making noise throughout the day. NIGERIA🇳🇬 NEED THESE ASAP, especially LAGOS. Jesus have mercy. Mosques and Churches need overhauling in Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Sorry for the bad experience. We thank our president Kagame, a visionary leader, for helping us to avoid this kind of rubbish. With a such noise you aren't peaceful at all. In Rwanda we are peaceful at all levels of life, thanks to Kagame.
This is what you call good leadership in Rwanda. Kudos to paul kagame . Rwanda does not need many places of worship but more industries. Every business entity needs to pay taxes and be registered. Churches are now businesses
I totally support the approach Rwanda is taking . Is it harsh , yes a little but , if you are doing the right thing then you shouldn’t complain , just fall in line and your church will operate . As a Ugandan and Christian, I have seen the rubbish institutions that crop up everyday in Uganda with money-seeking individuals who start with small groups of loyal minions and grow into massive money-making ‘churches’ (machines) , taking advantage of the innocent, desperate and gullible citizens especially the poor and those in delicate circumstances looking for salvation . There are streets in Kampala lined by churches , like the roads leading to or away from major referral hospitals for instance. Then the billboards by different ‘prophets’ announcing the next great crusade / worship harvest / healing . Each claiming to be the messenger of God himself and with a legion of followers who basically worship him and follow his every instruction- one prophet’s followers have gone as far as renaming themselves with his last name . Tell me it’s a thriving business without telling me it’s a thriving business. If I wasn’t so disgusted by it , I’d probably throw in some of my own money and see how much I make from it . Open your eyes people !!
kudos. i know kagame is heavy handed but frankly africa needs heavy hands. if you've ever been to rwanda you will see the impact of his vision. we need this in nigeria.
@@the8thchurch461 You can see poor people going to church 7 days a week rather than working for a living. Too much in Africa but Kagame can't tolerate.
Rwanda will soon experience great development with these step they have taken... However, they must also not use this as a strategy to shut or disrupt the true churches. Nigeria needs this😂
Nigeria need this?then what will be the replacement,people don't know when their about to fall.i guess the human sacrifice that bought slavery in Africa is what you want.ignorant is a down fall.
Yes. Nigerian church buildings are very uncomfortable including the so called big churches. There is need for proper regulations like every other civilized country.
This is very correct.Many of the so called Churches in Nigeria and Africa were motivated by personal interest and not by a strong passion to win souls for Christ.Many Pastors do not care about their flock making the Kingdom of Heaven.So sad. There is a need for people of God to add to our faith knowledge (education) in order to fulfill God's calling on our lives.I do not subscribe to a compulsory degree.
Thank you Adeola,may the Lord continue to guide you and keep you in His Will.I believe what happened in Rwanda has to happen because the Church has failed.The Church is supposed to be the light and salt to the world.(Mat 5:13-14) Many of the so called Churches in Nigeria and Africa were motivated by personal interest and not by a strong passion to win souls for Christ.Many Pastors do not care about their flock making the Kingdom of Heaven.So sad.

While I agree with this, especially for the sake of safety and every other seemingly good reasons, here are my concerns; 1. Once it is the government that has set these rules, it makes it easy for those who can meet those requirements to simply meet them and start a church. I didn't see requirements like "You must show evidence of your Salvation experience" or "You must show evidence of sound teaching", it's all papers, certifications and things like that. 2. The moment it is the government that has established these criteria, it also means human beings are in charge and hence, it can be manipulated. If someone wants to start a church now, you may just need to know someone who knows someone in the government to help you sign this or sign that and then your church becomes recognized by the government and you move on; the process can be manipulated because human beings will be in charge. 3. As good as these may seem, it also eliminates the possibility of those who have little beginnings. I would have loved if the government can give a space of at least 5 years, for churches just starting to build up for some time and then provide those requirements. The reason is that not everyone has all the funds when they start, in fact majority of big churches today had a very rough start. So imagine that at the time when they were still struggling to gather funds and equipments, someone stopped them with a long list like this, that means they would have been killed before they were born. I'll conclude with this, while I understand the place of moderating the activities of churches, especially as there a lots of false pastors today, we should also remember the good ones that simply are just starting. We should bear in mind that Satan may, I said may please, be using this as a subtle attack on the good churches that simply don't have the funds or the resources. Let me conclude with this story. Remember the story in the Bible when Pharaoh in Egypt ordered that all newly born Israelites male children be killed at birth? It was a government order and if you asked Pharaoh he would justify it with some seemingly good reason for the safety and protection of Egypt. However, we know that Satan aimed at only one child, the baby Moses. If not for God's help, the resources of God that has been deposited in baby Moses would have been destroyed before it even starts. History is replete with examples of how Satan used governments of different countries as a tool to attack God's plan. If this move of the government of Kenya is from God it will stand, but if it is not, God Himself will make a way for His own.
I think you’re confusing gospel with laws, first of all Rwanda is a secular state, second, God’s calling is to teach people of his kingdom not to suffocate them in a small room with no bathroom no clean water or nothing, 3rd, if you have a calling you can still preach in another church, why do you need a church of your own? That alone is a problem,
Bravo!!👏🏾 My Rwanda is doing a great job!! God is a God of Order “For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.” 1 Corinthians 14:33 KJV Order definitely needs to be brought back in the Church of Ch
I'm a Pastor and other than the theology degree requirement, I wholeheartedly support the Rwanda approach. There are too many quack churches and fake pastors doing all kinds of harm to people and communities around Africa and other nations need to follow Rwanda's example to bring sanity to the church.
If we do this in Nigeria it'll just make the celebrity pastors more powerful because their churches can easily meet requirements, make we dey manage our thousands of mushrooms like that
It’s not just that, Rwanda said don’t listen to the pastors who preach nonsense just for taking people money’s then you will have to pay taxes stuff like that
An academic degree pre pastoral is ok but mandatory degree in theology is definitely not right. Other pre requisites as stated by the Rwanda Govt I think are good to ensure order and sanity. So long as they are not intended to gag the Church. I think other countries and Nigeria in particular should take cue especially in the area of sanitation, safety and noise pollution by religious organisations.
This is the right step in the right direction. I want to add to the policies in Rwanda 1. individuals cannot open a church-nobody can own a church, which will prevent gazillion of churches being opened on a daily basis; 2. you must attend a 4-year Bible college before you can become a pastor - just as stated in the policy; 3. an investigative body should be established to investigate allegations against pastors/prophets, similar to how it is done for other professionals like doctors, lawyers, psychologists, etc.; 4. if pastors/prophets are found guilty of malpractice, they should be punished, including jail time; 5. pastors/prophets should be put on a salary like every other profession-they should not live glamorous lives on tithes and offerings; and 6. prophecies should be handed over to the appropriate church authority for vetting before being shared with people, which will help prevent the manipulation and control of people through prophecy. Any failed prophecy will attract banning, imprisonment, or death. These are the real policies and laws needed to protect the people.
All your recommendations except #6 are already implemented. I have been living in Rwanda for almost 2yrs now and I must say these policies work wonderfully. The noise pollution, safety and hygiene, parking spaces and all that also applies to entertainment centers also. Infact in Kigali, Entertainment Centers must close at 1am on weekdays and 2am on weekends, to avoid noise pollution 😅😅
There are a lot of flaws in your submissions. While I agree to sanity in the church, it is not the place of unbelievers to put the church in check. Flesh and blood cannot do only what the Holy Spirit can do. While I believe everyone called of God should be trained in a Bible College, it is not a must criterion. It's wrong to appoint pastors on the basis of human approvals. There are many pastors behind the pulpit who has no business there because they were never called. But they found themselves appointed because they went to some seminary or theological college. The Bible teaches the 5-fold ministry - apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher. Some persons are occupying offices they were not called into if at all they were called, hence they become misfits. Things of the spirit cannot be understood by the flesh. 7:33 7:33 7:33 Pardon my responses.
@@tyfredteh7536That's excellent. These measures should be applied in other African countries as well. The use of churches to exploit people is out of control. The majority of pastors and prophets in Africa cannot pass background checks. The church and the role of a pastor/prophet have become a default profession for people who cannot succeed in secular jobs and who cannot pass criminal background checks for responsible positions. Once financial exploitation associated with church operations is blocked, many people of questionable character will not be lured into becoming pastors/prophets. The number of churches established will also reduce. There will be sanity in the society.
Please who are the church authorities that will vet the prophecies? There are many Elis in the church today. I've stopped listening or reading prophecies very long time now. I know there are charlatans today. But that doesn't mean that there are no true prophets and prophecies. By God's grace when I see or hear one, I know.
Abeg no call the man. His own will go the other way. He may wake up to tell you that every church member need to be paying 2k every Sunday as tax and 5k if you are not a member.
The big so called 'daddy GOs' work hand on hand with the politicians helping them shift their looted money abroad to where they have foreign branches. The GOs are all crooks
I agree with most of what is on the list because it provides transparency and creates an understandable framework so that religious organizations would not abuse the congregation and be used as subversive groups against the government
I agree pastors need to be educated so they can stop misinterpreting the bible, turning bible words upside down,
Education has nothing to do with it. They go into with the intention to deceive right from the start!
A book that has misinterpreted foundations will always lead to misinterpret turning things upside down

I think this is a good development because it means that only people with the appropriate requirements will be able to teach people. Apostle Femi Lazarus speaks of something like this happening in Nigeria
Its not a good development as you can't see the satanic agenda behind this
No its not
I think it is GENIUS! Lying cults like Seventh day Adventism would fail the doctrine test. They claim to have the truth and are the most extreme group.They are extremely abusive as a result, asking people of their blood, taking people's money through so called tithing, and then bullying women to marry young so that they can have more children to increase the population of the church/cult. I wish we had a leader like this man in Botswana. Well done Sir!
No country progress with more churches than warehouses and factories. Rwanda is on the part of economic growth. If happens in Nigeria, it will be the greatest nation in the world.
Your comment concerning factories and warehouses versus churches hints broadly at Rwanda’s problem…poverty. Forty per cent of Rwanda’s people’s live below their own government’s standard of what is considered poverty. Sixty per cent of the people are under thirty years of age and hungry for work. Shutting down churches and mosques won’t solve those issues. As for money-grubbing prophets, that too is evidence to a peoples desperation as they seek help to survive both economically and spiritually. The government must recognize that they not only lead a nation economically but morally and spiritually, but in matters of faith let it be with gentle encouragement. I applaud all Rwanda has done to overcome 1994 but how will closing institutions continue that progress? Rwanda, has more to fear from the political intents of its neighbors than it does from people worshipping God.
Yes, these reasons are very valid and should be enforced in Nigeria. It will reinforce what God is all about- Orderliness.
Exactly
❤❤❤
Was it orderliness when this god flooded the world drowning every man woman and child? That to me says what this god is all about.
@@moety2 Your breathe is His. The life you have, He put it in you. Who are you?
If you abuse His graciously given free will to become corrupted, He will take what is His out of you. And you will drop and return the ground where you came from.
Think of this analogy: A person makes a computer for a certain purpose, and builds into it capabilities to succeed. Then that computer gets corrupted and goes out of the way to do things you never intended. What do you do? You to try to correct the anomalies. If that doesn't work, you destroy it and rebuild.
That is what God does with humanity and all of creation.
The flood was cleaning up and restoring orderliness. Records of His word say an end of all ends is coming.
@@patriot_2022 did the unborn or children in the great flood abuse his graciously given free will? The being that created everything couldn’t come up with a better plan other than drowning his creation? Seems way more like a tyrant than some all loving deity.
As for your analogy, if I created all the components and the hardware and software of a computer, I knew beforehand all the problems that will happen and choose not to do anything about it, put it all together, then the problems I knew were going to happen, happen, I blame the computer for having the problems and destroy it all while taking no responsibility claiming it was the computers choice for having those problems. This is what your god did unless you want to say it’s not all knowing. Again, something a tyrant would do.
We desperately need this in Nigeria.
Best decision ever, Nigeria should follow suit. All these Mushroom churches springing up everywhere in Nigeria is an embarrassment. Zero safety involved.
not only churches though. mosques as well
Yes you right even South Africa should follow suit, some of these churches got nothing to do with God
If you are truthful, If churches are closed down in Nigeria, Mosques must be closed as well. Imagine the noise pollution by mosques during call for prayer
This can never happen in Nigeria. It's easier in Rwanda because the Muslims are mere 2% - almost negligible. It's only Christians that can enact and execute such laws. Muslims cannot...and they have a good number (percentage) in Nigeria.
A pastor once told how Muslims gathered and reported him to the police that he's disturbing the community with the sounds from his church. The police wrote to the pastor who also approached the state chairman of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria which he belonged.
The chairman simply gathered his church legal team who wrote to the police that the church will agree to stop using the PA systems on one condition - that the Muslims should also stop the early morning noise that boozes out of the mosque.
And since they cannot do without the early morning noise, they lost the case, and the police could no longer prosecute the pastor.
Rwanda is highly disciplined, that is why it is improving in all sectors. Now, with more churches out of business, the world will see how fast Rwanda develops! Rwanda, fantastic job continuing to protect your people!
Too right! The West put religion in place in Africa to stop us having access to our own resources. Hard to believe but true. I truly admire this man.
Was it the churches that made Rwanda not to develop ?
@elliotjohn8459 Of course. What do you think? Religion was created to keep people poor and happy. It truly is a "see you on the other side" strategy to pacify those who were suffering and living in straitened circumstances.
Adeola, I actually see merit in this edict. It should be implemented in Nigeria.
Thanks for all the info, great job.
They did the right thing. In Cameroon we have almost exact similar laws but we lack follow-up. Kudos to Rwanda
Really? Had no idea.
Had to relocate to get a relief from church noise. There was one just by my window. Service 3 days per week, not counting band practice and prayer cell meetings. Since the pastor lives in the church, when he gets up at night, usually 4 AM to pray, he prays over the mic. If you complain they say you have demons in you. Would've reported if I knew such laws exist in CMR.
@@iBen-jz5xz😂😂😂
I relate to this 💯
The guy so called pastor will always promise to turn down the volume when i went knocking at their door, but as soon as i turned back, they raised it again.
I was a demon possessed man and needed deliverance through him.. And I did received it when i finaly moved house. Just for a new church to creep in not too far from my house, for the moment they have no amps, lets Hope it remains that way😂😂😂😂 It's a real plague in our majour cities.
Church bank
This is great. I particularly like the documentation
This is a good move by a responsible leadership. In many of our African communities both in africa and abroad , we have turned religion especially churches into businesses.
People who can't even make coherent sentences call themselves prophets misleading their followers.
If God has called one,they don't need perfect speech.
Well, I guess they don’t know that there are no more prophets or apostles at all.
@@Deservingoflife I question if a lot of them went to Seminary school. I've seen some pastors make up some ridiculous bs before.
@@GODSPEAKS898keep up with those school of thought…..Read Your Bible
Anyway. So you mean God has allowed it to happen for a reason. Yer like God allowed to persecution to break out upon the disciples in Jerusalem so that they could take the gospel to farther places. There's always a reason why God allows certain things to come against His Church.

I am an American and I love it. I will not attend a church without and educated pastor nor a megachurch. There are too many people going into religion for financial purposes only. Great work Rwanda.
I moved to tanzania from Canada. I rented a house next to a church, it was the biggest mistake of my life. Unbeknownst to me, they have night service Tuesday night and Friday nights from 9 pm to 3am. They were bloody loud, making so much noise.o couldn't sleep. After reading Tanzanian rules concerning noise pollution, it specifically mentioned churches and mosques. I recorded the night service, and then I went to the authorities to complain. A meeting was called between the pastor and myself. He was ordered to bring the noise within the specified rules. Since then, it has been good. I couldn't believe that the local people put up with this nonsense without doing anything about it. Yet again, some people don't know the constitution of their own country, and their rights govern therein.
was anything done to fix the noise pollution?
@godsonchikelu6024 Yes. The area chairperson called a meeting between the pastor of the church and myself. I stated that I'm not asking them to stop the oversight service ,rather, I would like them to comply with the rules outlined by the government. They have been complying

God will always protect and guide you Adeola. Thumbs up. Keep keeping it real.
You speak so well and you hit the nail on the head period!!! Short and interesting ❤
Thank you Adeola for sharing this. All African countries need to follow Rwanda's example. This is how a country moves forward by setting laws and regulations. Having a call to ministry is not enough. Training and education are very important. Jesus's apostles were called and then they received training by Jesus himself. The church regulations will protect lives, reduce corruption, and make Christianity more appealing to a broader segment of society.
The church doesn't protect any life. Smh
I agree, fully. This must be enforced in Ghana.
Jehovah is a God of order.
Good. May other African countries follow suit.
Unfortunately other African countries are sellout which don't care about the welfare of the people.
Excellent analysis good journalism!
Please we need this in Nigeria.
They need to this Southern Africa region. They have terrible noise pollution. The whole neighborhood is forced to listen to sermon. What happened to love your neighbors.....
This helps people not abuse religion 👏🏾 👍🏾
Thank you for this. Made my day. Subbed.
Adeola this is FANTASTIC I know the church of God must match on nothing stops the gospel but there is a need for accountability and it should be extended to all religious with no exemptions... hopefully all this sheep in wolves clothing will not beat the system. We really need this cleansing/edification all over.
They are likely to beat the system. They won't give up
I like it. Every organization should be accountable , and churches should be at the forefront of setting those standards
Adeola, thanks for adequate information
You're making a great impact
This is Dr Luke from the USA l totally agree with the Government of Rwanda’s new regulations for the establishment and management of Churches and Mosques Let all African countries know this Thanks for sharing
A very welcoming idea by the Rwanda 🇷🇼 government. Nigeria 🇳🇬 government also needs to take this measures.
Nice one sis, this will help flush out most of these Yahoo pastors in nigeria
Lol. Yahoo pastors. How true. And they are very abusive and criminal.
Adeola, As a Christian myself in Nigeria 🇳🇬, I said so, because I am not an unbeliever. I love Jesus and wants the church of Christ to grow. But 1000 Churches and mosque in 1 streets is no no for me. I support this Rewanda new action. We need this in Nigeria 🇳🇬 ASAP. I rented a house here in Lakowe Ibeju Lekki Lagos. Adeola do you know, I don't sleep at night and Morning Because of church and mosques? 😢 Jesus this is depressing. Two churches are facing the house. They hold night vigils at night till 2 am. Once is 2 am I want to close my eyes. Then The central mosque at Oribawa will start by 5 am. These mosques make so much noise with a loud 📢 speaker 🔇. I told a fellow Christian brother that I stopped going to One Redeem close to the house because of their loudspeakers. The day I went to that church I came home with a headache and my ears were making noise throughout the day. NIGERIA🇳🇬 NEED THESE ASAP, especially LAGOS. Jesus have mercy. Mosques and Churches need overhauling in Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Sorry for the bad experience. We thank our president Kagame, a visionary leader, for helping us to avoid this kind of rubbish. With a such noise you aren't peaceful at all. In Rwanda we are peaceful at all levels of life, thanks to Kagame.
Even sound proof will do make noise inside church, will you not feel headache? This is devilish pray that headaches depart away from you in Jesus name
Uganda needs this too
This is what you call good leadership in Rwanda. Kudos to paul kagame . Rwanda does not need many places of worship but more industries. Every business entity needs to pay taxes and be registered. Churches are now businesses
Churches will be soon paying taxes here in Rwanda.
They get too much money in citizens ,i agree with that ...they have to pay taxes .i m from Rwanda too but it was too much@patrickmuhireroger8771
I totally support the approach Rwanda is taking . Is it harsh , yes a little but , if you are doing the right thing then you shouldn’t complain , just fall in line and your church will operate .
As a Ugandan and Christian, I have seen the rubbish institutions that crop up everyday in Uganda with money-seeking individuals who start with small groups of loyal minions and grow into massive money-making ‘churches’ (machines) , taking advantage of the innocent, desperate and gullible citizens especially the poor and those in delicate circumstances looking for salvation .
There are streets in Kampala lined by churches , like the roads leading to or away from major referral hospitals for instance. Then the billboards by different ‘prophets’ announcing the next great crusade / worship harvest / healing . Each claiming to be the messenger of God himself and with a legion of followers who basically worship him and follow his every instruction- one prophet’s followers have gone as far as renaming themselves with his last name .
Tell me it’s a thriving business without telling me it’s a thriving business. If I wasn’t so disgusted by it , I’d probably throw in some of my own money and see how much I make from it .
Open your eyes people !!

Rwanda will soon experience great development with these step they have taken... However, they must also not use this as a strategy to shut or disrupt the true churches.

I concur. However, it should apply to all religions practiced in Rwanda. Especially, where people congregate
Please bring this to Ghana Oooooh, bring it
True true Rwanda are interested to organize many things. Not only churches
God has blessed the Govt of Rwanda with so much wisdom,..... This is highly recommended
Is only in Nigeria God we call father mother and still call there children's 99% of Nigeria church need to be close
Yes. Nigerian church buildings are very uncomfortable including the so called big churches.
There is need for proper regulations like every other civilized country.
A call to evangelism is not a call to open church or church's. You can remain in your current church and do the work of winning souls
Man you are so correct.kudos to you
This is very correct.Many of the so called Churches in Nigeria and Africa were motivated by personal interest and not by a strong passion to win souls for Christ.Many Pastors do not care about their flock making the Kingdom of Heaven.So sad.
There is a need for people of God to add to our faith knowledge (education) in order to fulfill God's calling on our lives.I do not subscribe to a compulsory degree.
Thank you Adeola,may the Lord continue to guide you and keep you in His Will.I believe what happened in Rwanda has to happen because the Church has failed.The Church is supposed to be the light and salt to the world.(Mat 5:13-14)

Adeola !!! You killed me on this one!😂😂😂😂
While I agree with this, especially for the sake of safety and every other seemingly good reasons, here are my concerns;
1. Once it is the government that has set these rules, it makes it easy for those who can meet those requirements to simply meet them and start a church. I didn't see requirements like "You must show evidence of your Salvation experience" or "You must show evidence of sound teaching", it's all papers, certifications and things like that.
2. The moment it is the government that has established these criteria, it also means human beings are in charge and hence, it can be manipulated. If someone wants to start a church now, you may just need to know someone who knows someone in the government to help you sign this or sign that and then your church becomes recognized by the government and you move on; the process can be manipulated because human beings will be in charge.
3. As good as these may seem, it also eliminates the possibility of those who have little beginnings. I would have loved if the government can give a space of at least 5 years, for churches just starting to build up for some time and then provide those requirements. The reason is that not everyone has all the funds when they start, in fact majority of big churches today had a very rough start. So imagine that at the time when they were still struggling to gather funds and equipments, someone stopped them with a long list like this, that means they would have been killed before they were born.
I'll conclude with this, while I understand the place of moderating the activities of churches, especially as there a lots of false pastors today, we should also remember the good ones that simply are just starting. We should bear in mind that Satan may, I said may please, be using this as a subtle attack on the good churches that simply don't have the funds or the resources.
Let me conclude with this story. Remember the story in the Bible when Pharaoh in Egypt ordered that all newly born Israelites male children be killed at birth? It was a government order and if you asked Pharaoh he would justify it with some seemingly good reason for the safety and protection of Egypt. However, we know that Satan aimed at only one child, the baby Moses. If not for God's help, the resources of God that has been deposited in baby Moses would have been destroyed before it even starts. History is replete with examples of how Satan used governments of different countries as a tool to attack God's plan.
If this move of the government of Kenya is from God it will stand, but if it is not, God Himself will make a way for His own.
I think you’re confusing gospel with laws, first of all Rwanda is a secular state, second, God’s calling is to teach people of his kingdom not to suffocate them in a small room with no bathroom no clean water or nothing, 3rd, if you have a calling you can still preach in another church, why do you need a church of your own? That alone is a problem,
Anything that Rwanda is Doing All Africa heads of states needs to implement too,, things are working in Rwanda
I wish they can do same in Nigeria.
I like it ooo. Very very well. Some people are using church now to do nonsense. I strongly recommend this in Nigeria too.

Imagine half of these are factories.... they wont be that poor. We need this in Nigeria fast. We have over 3million I'm sure
I support that each church should have adequate infrastructure, documentation and safety structures in place. And Yeeeees! No noise pollution.
Rwanda is the true giant of Africa .
I'm a Pastor and other than the theology degree requirement, I wholeheartedly support the Rwanda approach. There are too many quack churches and fake pastors doing all kinds of harm to people and communities around Africa and other nations need to follow Rwanda's example to bring sanity to the church.
If we do this in Nigeria it'll just make the celebrity pastors more powerful because their churches can easily meet requirements, make we dey manage our thousands of mushrooms like that
It’s not just that, Rwanda said don’t listen to the pastors who preach nonsense just for taking people money’s then you will have to pay taxes stuff like that
🎉 wow another angle to the argument
TY for the information.😀
An academic degree pre pastoral is ok but mandatory degree in theology is definitely not right.
Other pre requisites as stated by the Rwanda Govt I think are good to ensure order and sanity. So long as they are not intended to gag the Church.
I think other countries and Nigeria in particular should take cue especially in the area of sanitation, safety and noise pollution by religious organisations.
I would like this attitude in Jamaica!
This is the right step in the right direction. I want to add to the policies in Rwanda
1. individuals cannot open a church-nobody can own a church, which will prevent gazillion of churches being opened on a daily basis;
2. you must attend a 4-year Bible college before you can become a pastor - just as stated in the policy;
3. an investigative body should be established to investigate allegations against pastors/prophets, similar to how it is done for other professionals like doctors, lawyers, psychologists, etc.;
4. if pastors/prophets are found guilty of malpractice, they should be punished, including jail time;
5. pastors/prophets should be put on a salary like every other profession-they should not live glamorous lives on tithes and offerings; and
6. prophecies should be handed over to the appropriate church authority for vetting before being shared with people, which will help prevent the manipulation and control of people through prophecy. Any failed prophecy will attract banning, imprisonment, or death.
These are the real policies and laws needed to protect the people.
You number 6 na😢
All your recommendations except #6 are already implemented. I have been living in Rwanda for almost 2yrs now and I must say these policies work wonderfully.
The noise pollution, safety and hygiene, parking spaces and all that also applies to entertainment centers also. Infact in Kigali, Entertainment Centers must close at 1am on weekdays and 2am on weekends, to avoid noise pollution 😅😅
There are a lot of flaws in your submissions. While I agree to sanity in the church, it is not the place of unbelievers to put the church in check. Flesh and blood cannot do only what the Holy Spirit can do.
While I believe everyone called of God should be trained in a Bible College, it is not a must criterion. It's wrong to appoint pastors on the basis of human approvals. There are many pastors behind the pulpit who has no business there because they were never called. But they found themselves appointed because they went to some seminary or theological college.
The Bible teaches the 5-fold ministry - apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher. Some persons are occupying offices they were not called into if at all they were called, hence they become misfits.
Things of the spirit cannot be understood by the flesh. 7:33 7:33 7:33
Pardon my responses.
@@tyfredteh7536That's excellent. These measures should be applied in other African countries as well. The use of churches to exploit people is out of control. The majority of pastors and prophets in Africa cannot pass background checks. The church and the role of a pastor/prophet have become a default profession for people who cannot succeed in secular jobs and who cannot pass criminal background checks for responsible positions. Once financial exploitation associated with church operations is blocked, many people of questionable character will not be lured into becoming pastors/prophets. The number of churches established will also reduce. There will be sanity in the society.
Please who are the church authorities that will vet the prophecies? There are many Elis in the church today.
I've stopped listening or reading prophecies very long time now. I know there are charlatans today. But that doesn't mean that there are no true prophets and prophecies. By God's grace when I see or hear one, I know.
