I am indeed shocked and ashamed to hear through friends that "the world Anglican conference was planning to include Bishop. Dyvasirvadam on their task force, which is expected to sort out differences in the churches, etc." (majorvictor@gmail.com, May 13, 2016). I wonder how ecumenical the Anglican Episcopate has been, that it has been ignorant of what has been going on in the Church of South India with around 4.5 million members during the last 16 years, ever since the question of corruption in churches has been brought to the attention of the global church, especially during the tenure of Rev. Dyvasirvadam as secretary, bishop and moderator of the CSI Synod.

The brief account of the c.v. on Dyvasirvadam given by Dr. David W. Virtue is sufficient enough to speak for the disqualification of Mr. Dyvasirvadam to be on the above task force. He is fit to be considered as a person under -- NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER (NPD) -- a diagnosis under which the Mega-global fraudster K.P. Yohanan has been brought under.

Persons with this mental disorder are, as per dictionary meanings, those who feel "as if the world revolves around them", "have obsessive self-interest", "pursue mainly selfish goals", etc.

These are people who deify themselves and desire self worship, and there are millions of such persons around us these days. Free-lance preachers who attract big crowds claiming divine powers, miracle mongers, etc. belong to this category (but not even one such has vindicated his/her claim in history till today). These are people who have no feeling for the sufferings of the people they exploit, cheat and use. Adolf Hitler, who burnt to death six million Jews in gas chambers and caused the death of several other millions and other sadistic dictators like Idi Amin, Sadam Hussein, etc. should also come under the list.

K.P. Yohanan, an Indian from the state of Kerala, a free-lance evangelist, with an Australian wife, is a mega-fraud who is now being exposed by donors in USA, Canada and Australia and they are now desperately trying to bring him to books before the law, but still without much success. They have now identified him as a person under -"NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER (NPD)". To have more information about him please contact Dr. Throckmorton (warrenthrockmorton@gmail.com) and Dr. Michaeal Newnham (phoenixpreacher@gmail.com

How do such self-deifying monsters arise within the Church of Christ?

Since 2005 I have been raising a question --

"Which Christ do we Serve?"

This appeared in the form of an article in Germany and Netherlands in 2005 and in the form of booklets in English and Tamil in India in 2006.

Is the question irrelevant?

No, it is very much relevant, because our Lord himself has warned us of "false Christs", who in a state of "narcissistic personal disorder", as seen above, will deify themselves and "show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect." (Matt.24:24).

I wish to ask you friends in the Anglican Communion, if you are able to give us an answer?

"A radical change in the image of the church took place at the beginning of the fourth century after Christ, when Constantine, the Roman Emperor (D.D.280-337) became a sympathizer of Christianity and started protecting and supporting the church. The church, hitherto persecuted, henceforth became the protected church. The hitherto insulted poor church became a powerful church, s church with royal patronage. The Nazarene Jesus with the crown of thorns was replaced by a Jesus with a crown of gold, studded with precious stones, robed in purple, holding the earth-globe on his left hand and the scepter on his right hand, as depicted in Christian art, paintings and sculptures everywhere, showing to the world that this gold crowned Jesus was the unrivalled ruler of this earth.'

"This ecclesiastical theology bestowed on the leaders of the church, the pope, the cardinals, the bishops and the priests the power and authority to rule as the vicegerents of this gold-crowned world-ruler Jesus at different levels, and in consequence, these church leaders started behaving as "petty kings" over the respective jurisdictions assigned to them." (Which Christ do we Serve?, Kanya Justice and Peace Publications, Kanyakumari, India, 2006, pp.5f.)

This worldly-wealth, pomp, power, glory and veneration attached to episcopacy served as a snare and seduced many belonging to the non-episcopal forms of ministries in India and they all one after another embraced episcopacy and became bishops. With such leaders, the wooden crosses become gold-crosses immediately. One of them had a cross of 15 sovereigns (120 grams) of gold around his neck, and at the time of retirement he went away with it, I am told.

Who rules the world today? Many of us would like to know.

Definitely not God. Jesus' reign is not of this world. Jesus talks of "the ruler of this world" as one with whom he has nothing to do, as the following verses indicate--John 12:31; 14:30 & 16:8-11). Jesus never denied that he was a king, but insisted that his kingship was not of this world (John 18:36). He did not come to exercise authority over others and to rule over them (Mark 10:42-43). He was a servant king, who came "not to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many" (Mark 10:45).

One of my recent publications has the following title:

"Capitalist Economy is not acceptable Theologically, Spiritually and Morally"

I will be happy to know the stand of GAFCON on this subject. Can the Anglican Episcopacy refute this? Can our friends tell us how they relate Capitalism with the Biblical Understanding Stewardship? Can we all come together for an ecumenical discussion on this subject? I will welcome your suggestions.

Yet I know, there are many servants of the Servant King, the thorn crowned Jesus of Nazareth, the first and foremost one I remember is the last bishop Hollis, the first Moderator of the Church of South India, who voluntarily renounced his position as the moderator in order to hand over the leadership of the Church to an Indian, Bp. Sumitra. After resigning his position, he became a professor at the United Theological College, Bangalore, and I had the privilege sitting under his feet as student and did the doctrine of the Holy Spirit with him. He was a real spiritual father to all of us. During his last days, I had the privilege of spending two days with him and his totally blind wife in UK. I walked with him to the market place to buy things for the home and observed how the bishop took care of his totally blind wife. There I saw a living example of the Servant of the Servant King, the Thorn-crowned Jesus.

I can also think of many other bishops who lived as faithful servants of the servant King Jesus. I can think of Moderators Sumitra, Anandarao Samuel, I.R.H. Gnanadhasan and the last corruption-free Moderator I. Yesudhasan.

As one who was born in the C.S.I., I can also trace the day on which willful corruption entered into the CSI and, if asked, I can write a book on corruption in the CSI, with facts and figures. Wealth brings power, power brings glory and honour and the person concerned soon becomes the victim of the "NPD" disorder.

Jesus foresaw this great danger and hence cautioned- "You cannot serve God mammon (Semitic word for money or riches)" (Matt.6:24; cf.Lk.16:13)

Because those who worship money are too many, Jesus also raised the following question to his followers:

"When the Son of man comes, will he find faith on earth?" Lk.18:8

It was money which turned the House of God, meant to be the place of worship for all nations, into a den of robbers, and it was for chasing the robbers out of the temple, Jesus was thrown out and crucified. It is this crucified Servant King, who has nowhere to lay his head, calling us to join him to purify the temple and to restore it for the nations. Until this is accomplished we will be with Jesus where he is joining in his struggle in purifying the temple.

Already I hear from members of the CSI to go back to 1947 and as the servants of the thorn-crowned Servant King Christ to start a new Church, which will be the Church of Christ in India, a Church which will not reflect the destructive values of South India, but the life-giving values of the thorn crowned Jesus. We covet the prayers and support of all friends in the Anglican Communion who are committed to this cause.

May the grace of God be with you all.

Yours in the service of the Servant King,
