One day in January 2024, I woke up in the morning and felt pain in my neck. I could feel a small lump. As time passed, the lump grew bigger and bigger to turn into a bump, and the affected area became swollen. It was easily visible, so I turned up my collar or covered it with a scarf. ...
"The Holiness Gospel Is Really the Word of God That Gives Life to Churches"
Bishop Kabutu Nshimbirwe Biriage, Chairman of Bethsaida Churches, DR Congo
I am President of Kibu Pastors' Association, Professor of Goma University, and Bishop Chairman of Bethsaida Churches.
Five hundred sixty one churches belong to Bethsaida Churches, and we have schools from the primary school to the university. I heard about Manmin Central Church from Elder Muhindo who attends Nairobi Manmin Holiness Church in Kenya. He said biblical works occur in the church and I was attracted to it.
In November 2015, I attended Nairobi Manmin Church's 15th anniversary service and learned about the Dr. Jaerock Lee's powerful works and the holiness gospel through Bishop Dr. Myongho Cheong. I was very glad to hear it.
I was sure that Dr. Lee's message is the word of life that gives life to churches and that leads people to Heaven. I was moved by Dr. Lee's books The Message of the Cross; My Life, My Faith; and The Measure of Faith.
I realized the essential point of the gospel is the circumcision of the heart, and thought I should join in Manmin replete with the works of the Holy Spirit. In June 2016, I invited Dr. Cheong to Pastors' Seminar held in Goma and in complete agreement, in July all the churches registered as Manmin's branch churches.
Now we are planning a big project to establish Manmin Bethsaida Bible College to spread the holiness gospel. We are preparing to open its courses in the five centers in the eastern areas including Goma, Bukabu, Ubira, and Baraka. Around 800 seminary students registered and have been longing to be taught the holiness gospel through the programs.
In early October, I attended Manmin Central Church's 34th anniversary events to meet Dr. Jaerock Lee in person. I could tell it was a big church, and the performance was so good that I felt like I was looking at the city of New Jerusalem firsthand.
On top of that, I was so happy to see Dr. Lee in person. He communicates with God through prayer and performs the power, but he is very humble and I was very touched by him. I want to follow his example of prayer. I give thanks to God who let me meet him, and to Manmin that accepted my churches and allowed me to open the Bible College.
