It was founded by Philip Tembo in 2015.
Members are in thousands and they:
1. Cry to God Because:
Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn
assembly, gather the elders and
all the inhabitants of the land into
the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD (Joel 1: 14)
O LORD, to thee will I cry: for
the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath
burned all the trees of the field Joel (1: 19).
Let
the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar,
and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thine heritage to reproach,
that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among
the people, Where is their God?
(Joel 2:17)
Those who refute the above as being only for the Old Testament
should read verse three of the same chapter:
Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their
children another generation.
2. Prophecy and See
Visions Because:
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon
all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men
shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions (Joel 2: 28).
3. Confess their Sins
Because:
If
we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in
us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a
liar, and his word is not in us. (1 John 1:8-10)
But
the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not
that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all
things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall
abide in him (1 John 2: 27).
4. Do not believe in the Prosperity Gospel
Love
not the world, neither the things that
are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the
Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the
flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father,
but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust
thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever (1 John 2: 15-17).
5. Do not believe in Apostasy
Little
children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall
come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the
last time. They went out from us, but they
were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with
us: but they went out,
that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us (1 John 2: 18-19). Additionally, believers do not believe in the rapture doctrine and in the existence of hell.
They deny anyone who claims to be the end-time Elijah, but they've endorsed Alice Lenshina as a true servant of God.
They believe in some teachings of William M. Branham, but clearly emphasize that he was a false prophet due to a failed 1977 prophecy.
Observing the Seventh-Day Sabbath is a significant part of their theology.
They re-baptize people who join their group if they had been baptized in previous denominations. Their baptism is done in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
They refuse to be called a denomination, refuse to be photographed and they generally live very ascetic lifestyles.
