The book that we
have before us, displays a sad picture. But it’s a
true picture. It’s a true picture of the Christafari
phenomenon. It could even be called a portrait and to
make it even more bizarre, we will find out how this sad
picture is basically painted by Christafarians
themselves.
Christafarianism
is a mystery. But a mystery is not a secret. It is
revealed to those who have either the key or simply eyes
to see. Truth, obviously, is the key. And it is said,
that the Truth shall set one free. A love for the Truth,
Who is Personified in Yesus Kristos, will be the first
step to freedom.
The book we have
before us, is about truth. Objective truth. When we love
the truth, we will be able to act according to this
truth. We will not ask ourselves as to why this book is
written. We simply take into consideration how Yesus
Kristos told us to check out everything people claim in
the Name of Christianity.
For a
“Christian Pastor”, it should not a problem either,
when others scrutinize and research his statements.
After all, a “Pastor” claims to bring “The Word of
God” and it is impossible for anyone to do this
perfectly. That’s why those who hear the “Pastor”
have to check out if these things are like the
“Pastor” says they are.
Usually, a
“Pastor” will love the truth and the one listening
to the “Pastor” will also love the truth. That’s
why they come together, too. Because of a joint love for
the truth. Truth also stands as is. And to know the
truth, sets one free.
So when a
“Pastor” who loves the truth makes a mistake, or
even speaks an untruth, this “Pastor” would love to
be corrected when he is proven wrong.
This is the
opportunity that “Pastor Mark Mohr” was given.
Unfortunately,
he didn’t use the opportunity to improve his
“preaching of the Truth” but instead applied actions
that made it neccesary to check even further.
For when a
“Pastor” doesn’t want to be checked, even though
he privately confessed to the spoken untruth, what’s
going on?
The answer is in
the book that is before us.
It was obvious,
and even admitted by himself in private circumstances,
how in fact he was speaking things which were not true.
Christafarianism, the complete sum of his teaching and
actions, contained a number of doctrinal errors and
blatant untruth. And “Pastor Mark” knew it, too.
For seven years,
he has been privately given a chance to repent from
speaking these untruths in public. After all, he claims
to be a Pastor. But his private reactions even contained
agression and were all aimed at stopping the critique
from reaching the public’s eye.
However, Pastor
Mark also admitted privately how he was indeed speaking
untruths. And while he did everything he could to
prevent this from becomming public knowledge, he kept
spreading these very same untruths without shame.
A situation that
lasted, as said, for about seven years. That’s when
the book “Christafarianism” was published and some
of the untruths exposed. Again, Pastor Mark was given a
chance to right his wrongs, allbeit in a more open way.
Sadly, the public reactions that came from Christafari
were similar to those in private.
As we will see
in this book, there is a reason why Pastor Mark didn’t
respond like a “Pastor”. That reason simply is, that
he is not a “Pastor” at all. In fact, there is no
biblical precedent for anything which Pastor Mark claims
to be his life ministry.
There is a
reason why Pastor Mark privately admits his errors while
perpetuating them in public. And that reason is that his
actions are not driven out of love for the truth, as we
will find out. They are the result of a certain
upbringing, a certain education: a certain
indoctrination.
There is a
reason why Pastor Mark calls himself a “pastor”
without being one. And that reason will also be clear
when we read the book that is before us.
There is a
reason why this second book is published. There is a
reason why it is 4 times the size of the previous one,
too. This reason is the simple neccesity for an exposure
of Christafarianism.
After seven
years of private communication came the publication of a
book that was not really anything more then an opener
for a neccesary debate on the doctrines of
Christafarianism.
This book was
not well received by Christafari. But they had to
respond as it was allready in the public’s eye. Their
responses exposed the complete unchristian nature of
Christafari and the theory that goes with this new
movement.
Their responses
also made it neccesary to dig deeper in to the strange
world of Christafari. And exactly that is what we are
about to do.
We will read
what happenned after the publication of the previous
book. Then we will take a real close look into some of
the roots and fruits of Christafarianism. We will talk
to people who had close connections with Pastor Mark and
Christafari until they were not usable anymore.
We will
also find out how Christafarianism came into existance.
When the Christafarian was born, and how.
