Evangelical clerics call for action against rogue pastorsSome leaders of evangelical churches has asked the Government to prosecute clerics who take advantage of their flock. The Evangelical Alliance of Kenya (EAK) bishops criticised the general condemnation of the clergy, saying culprits should be punished individually. Led by Redeemed Gospel Church Presiding Bishop Kepha Omae, the clerics rebuffed profiling of evangelical preachers as "thieves, cold blooded vampires, con-men, spiritual fraudsters and financial swindlers" and asked rogue clerics to carry their own cross. As God’s servants, we will continue preaching the truth so that our congregants know how to reject lies,” said Omae. The bishops said that lack of church regulations has led to mushrooming of rogue pastors.
