The Pastor’s Dilemma: Paul Mackenzie’s Journey to Leaving the Ministry After 9 Years
The place where Pastor Mackenzie’s followers have been fasting until they die is Shakahola, which is located in Malindi.
After it came to light that Paul Mackenzie had been deceiving people with his cult-like teachings. He became a topic of conversation.
In an interview with NTV, the self-proclaimed “man of God” disclosed that he had ceased his ministry in 2019 after receiving instruction from God to do so.
“I was a pastor from 2003-2019 in August. That is when I closed my ministry. I have heard people saying the government made me lose my business and my TV Station but that is not true.”
Mackenzie claimed that he had heard the voice of God and made the decision to respect it.
“The truth is that I heard God’s voice saying my time to preach God’s message on prophecy about the end. It was easy for me to accept but I respected and agreed to become a regular man. In 2022 is when I decided to join farming.”
