The Mail Online reports today:
Zion Church member Alec Ndiwane wanted to show God would save him. He ‘fell into a trance started speaking in tongues before charging at pride’. Lions chased after him and one of them clamped down on his buttocks. He said:
“I don’t know what came over me. Were we not given dominion over all creatures of the earth?’
A church leader had his buttocks mauled by a lion after running towards a pride in a bid to prove the ‘Lord’s power over animals’. Alec Ndiwane, a Zion Christian Church prophet, was attacked on a safari while trying to show that God would save him in front of fellow church members. He is said to have fallen into a trance and started speaking in tongues before charging at a pride of lions feeding on an impala in South Africa’s Kruger National Park.
But as Mr Ndiwane sprinted towards them, the lions immediately viewed him as prey and zeroed in.
Realising the Lord wasn’t about to help, Mr Ndiwane fled back to the car, but not before one of the lions clamped down on his buttocks.
He was only saved from further injury or possible death when the game ranger fired shots to scare the lions off, it was reported by GhanaWeb.
He said: ‘I do not know what came over me. I thought the Lord wanted to use me to show his power over animals.
‘Is it not we were given dominion over all creatures of the earth.’
Mr Ndiwane was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery to stitch up his wounds and was later discharged.

why does the HS ever tell these ‘prophets’ something about helping others rather than themselves?
I don’t recall God asking Daniel to run into the Lions den in order to prove himself. Perhaps Benny Hinn should visit this man and heal him of his broken buttocks and stop him from being an ass :p

That’ll teach him.
Another reader replied:
Unfortunately it won’t. Christians will see it as some other sort of sign from God, probably pass it off as God testing his faith to see if he still believes, and he will say it has strengthened his faith because God did not let him die.
Exactly!

However the question is that the lion from the tribe of Judah? If so….Ouch!

Just to be fair, I have seen some insane people claiming to be an Imam Mahdi. This is insanity and the insanity knows no bounds. I just hope and pray one day Sam doesn’t claim to be one too.
