AFRICAN BISHOP DECRIES ECUSA'S TAINTED MONEY

By David W. Virtue

LONG BEACH, CA (6/3/2004) — A bishop from Western Kenya, the Rt. Rev. Joseph Wasonga, blasted the Episcopal Church saying, “we will never accept money from anyone who does not acknowledge the authority of Scripture or believe that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.”

Speaking to more than 800 orthodox Episcopalians, the bishop said that any part of the Anglican Communion involved in homosexuality is in disunity.

“The devil is always against the will of God. We have three enemies, the world, the flesh and the devil. We should not allow the world to swallow us up.”

The bishop said the African Church would never again accept money from The Episcopal Church under its present leadership.
