Was very nice. Enjoyed the topics. I enjoyed Rudolph ‘s explanation on the ‘ cult ‘ Christ in me international.
I really hope and pray that more prominent church leaders can speak out against Christ in me international.
I can’t but wonder, why people are so afraid of this false church. It seems like there is almost a tolerance of them. I believe they should openly be criticized and actively pursued to stop, before a lot of people are hurt, or should i say already hurt through their teachings and actions.
Dankie Antony, I pray that it would provoke people to be more discerning. Have a lovely day!

Hi Pastor Rudolph, thanks for the good work you have been doing in exposing this false church. I also have family in CIMI, and would appreciate help in getting them out. From the various replies to articles about CIMI, It looks like a support system is needed for parents, and those who made it out of this church. I suggest arranging a meeting, where aggrieved family / friends can share their experiences. We can invite speakers like yourself as well as people who successfully escaped this church. I can arrange a venue in Pretoria, but I need the contact details of interested parties, so we can send out invitations. Can you perhaps assist with this, and what do you think of the idea? Somebody has to stop these guys, and help the victims…
Hi Robert,
Thank you for the encouragement! There are already quite a few ex-members that I have befriended that might be good to introduce to you in the New Year? If you can email me your number I can add you to the whatsup group? it will be great to get together.
Rudolph.
