During a Sunday session at New Life Pentecost Church, Apostle Benjamin Murata spoke out against Madzibaba Ishmael, accusing him of leading his followers astray by forbidding their children from receiving an education.
Addressing the congregation, Apostle Murata stressed the importance of education and urged people to reject Madzibaba Ishmael’s teachings, particularly concerning the education of their children.
“As a church, we cannot remain silent while members are indoctrinated in the name of hearing from God and worship,” Apostle Murata declared. “If someone is caught in a sin, those who live by the Spirit should gently restore them. But, we must also watch ourselves, lest we be tempted.”
He continued, citing biblical teachings: “The Bible is clear that self-deception is dangerous. Madzibaba Ishmael’s followers must open their eyes and see the truth.”

Apostle Murata emphasized that denying children access to education and healthcare is both morally wrong and akin to murder. He referenced the education of Biblical figure Paul, who was taught by a renowned professor, Gamaliel, highlighting the importance of education in ministry.
Directly addressing Madzibaba Ishmael, Apostle Murata challenged his teachings and practices, particularly regarding language, education, and technological use. He criticized the use of child labor and urged Madzibaba Ishmael not to deceive his followers.
In a symbolic gesture, Apostle Murata’s family and one of his pastors attended church wearing their doctorate gowns, underscoring the value of education.
While acknowledging Madzibaba Ishmael’s efforts in job creation and farming, Apostle Murata condemned the use of child labor as unacceptable and urged adherence to ethical principles.
