Bishop Rose captivated the KAMA Regional Conference audience at Kamsinga Girls Bungoma on August 23, 2023, with an eye-opening discourse on “Cults and Occults.”
From the origins of the term “cult” rooted in adoration and cultivation, to the mysterious realms of mystical powers, Bishop Rose explored the depths of religious veneration and esoteric beliefs. Attendees were immersed in understanding the dynamics of charismatic leaders, fringe belief systems, and the impact on society.
Through stories of doomsday cults, political transformations, and religious fervor, Bishop Rose unraveled the intricate threads that bind these groups together. The presentation shed light on the signs of authoritarian control, extreme beliefs, and isolation that characterize many cults. The veneration of a single individual and the subtle erosion of critical thinking were examined, highlighting the challenges faced by those within these groups.
While explaining the allure of cults and occults, the presentation also focused on the importance of awareness and understanding. Attendees were encouraged to empower themselves with knowledge to counter these influences. Bishop Rose emphasized the role of scripture, education, and open dialogue in equipping individuals to confront cultism.
