Prophetess Akatsa, fondly referred to as ‘Wa Mami’ is dressed in a white and green stripped T-shirt and long checked gathered skirt. She moves from side to side as she commands the faithful to sing even louder.
But why does she lock out worshipers?
“People must respect the word of God, and it begins with arriving in church on time. Period,” she stressed, explaining that people report to work early and the house of God shouldn’t be an exception.
Jerusalem Church of Christ has no seats.
Akatsa says it is not indicated anywhere in the Bible that Jesus talked to people who sat on seats. She states, “All Jesus’ followers sat down and listened to him.”
Male and female worshipers don’t mix in her church.
She says if they mix, men will start admiring the women and forget to follow the service.
