The founder of End Times Disciples Ministries, Prophet Penuel Mnguni, has debunked the rumours that he ordered church members to eat underwear.
The South African preacher said the End Times Disciples Ministries church has not opened since the lockdown period, and the church premises still remains closed.
The report concerning the church eating underwear is fake news, nothing has happened in church and no one was tied up by the community youth, End Times Disciples Ministries announced it on its Facebook page.
For the past three days, some social media and blogs had published that the End Time Disciples Ministries prophet has been beaten by community youths after commanding his congregation to eat their underwear.
The church members were also tied up and the prophet’s church was demolished by the community youths after commanding his congregation to eat their underwear.
But the Prophet said the report concerning the church eating underwear is fake news and no church member was beaten.
In a statement released by End Time Disciples Ministries, said it has come to the church’s attention that many are using Prophet Penuel’s name and the End Time Disciples Ministries to make money using the media platform.
Prophet Penuel was never beaten, and no church member was beaten, End Time Disciples Ministries stated this on the church’s Facebook page.
“We have discovered some rumours and news regarding our Father papa Penuel being arrested.
“As End Time Disciples Ministries we would like to confirm that the report is fake, as the church we have not opened since the lockdown period, the church premises still remains closed.

“Remember that even Satan wants his own children, the moment you believe the report that’s where you automatically behave as his children, and then you will hate someone because of the lie.
“We do not wrestle with flesh and blood but principalities and rulers.
