Khulu Reinfirst Manyuka, a 73 year old Zimbabwean man who tried to imitate Jesus Christ by embarking on a 40 day and night fasting, slumped and died on the 30th day states reports My Zimbabwe.
He reportedly left home on June 15, and headed for the bush to carry out the
dry fast, promising his relatives that he would be back on the 40th day just like the Son of God but died in the process.
Manyuka was known by his family and the entire community as a very spiritual person whose faith could move mountains, but in the attempt at putting his faith to the test, failed woefully.
A close relative broke the news to the online platform thus:
“He was a very spiritual man. It’s unfortunate he had to die this way. We got news of his death a month after he undertook the fasting. He was a healthy and religious old man who did not even look his age.”
Manyuka was allegedly driven to the ‘wilderness’ by the urge to emulate Christ but sadly, he did not equal or break Christ’s record.

DeleteLekwa nu eye ooo.
DeleteBwahahahahahahaha. E dey happen here o...
R.i.p to him...
ReplyDeleteRIP.
ReplyDeleteLol! Pastor stella
ReplyDeleteMtcheeeew.
ReplyDeleteHe died well...got no rip to offer.
Men with psychological problems are often seen as spiritual cos they make statements that are bizarre only to d sane.
So for this lunatic to seen as a spiritual person,then the people of Zimbabwe are somewhat mentally deranged
Olodo!!
ReplyDeleteHallelujah
ReplyDeleteHahhaahhaaha
DeleteThe spirit of death dragged him to the bush
ReplyDeleteUnlike Jesus
'.....Driven to the wilderness by the Spirit of God'.
To receive empowerment ! ! !
Halleluya ! ! !
He is Alive Forever !
Lol.
DeleteHahahaha sorry I had to laugh, its funny how some ppl can be stupid, he wants to imitate Jesus, how foolish one can be? Anyway let him go continue where he stopped in the other world. That's how some weeks ago I read where a man asked his friend to bury him saying he would rise after 3days, that's how he died oh.
ReplyDeleteHow do they think they can be like Jesus?
Say what!??
DeleteIf na me be the wife I no go try am oo.
Make the man blood no come dey for person hand..
Physcos everywhere.
They should continue to imitate Jesus. I dont know why they dont imitate the devil. yeye dey smell.
ReplyDeleteRIP old man. God knows your heart but you are not His son.
'He was a spiritual man'. He acted more foolish even inspite of his age. At 73 years when organs don de tire, you decided to embark on a journey of no return? You want to imitate Jesus? Oya naa. See where e don land you.
ReplyDeleteNobody can and ever will be like him! I love you JESUS my love above all things, am sorry for having offended thee ,never permit me to separate myself from thee again grant that I may love you always and do with me what you will.
ReplyDeleteOne of the most beautiful prayer that keeps me going. #CAtholicandProud
DeleteYay. Team forever Catholic. Say your rosary daily
DeleteYea christ ways are neva our way and we can neva understand him because it's a miracle God.
ReplyDeleteLol...hallelujah!!! God allowed him for 30 days!
ReplyDeleteNawaoo, his he thinking right at all? At 73 he wans to go on a dry fasting for 40 days and nite. Oh jeez! Jesus fix it!!!
ReplyDeleteStella D'Kork how market? You seem to have images for every expression. This one left me in stitches dis mornin. RIP to the man. I can't blame him cos he was displaying a certain zeal. But I think its important for it to be stressed in Christiandom that Christians ought to live by the Spirit, Words & Will of God. That is the only way we can get it right. May God bless us all & continue to help us. Amen!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you.
DeleteGod will NEVER share His Glory with anybody
ReplyDeleteYes o my sister.
DeleteHe for say make them come put am for ctpas nail am. *hisses* but white garment people do it nau
ReplyDeleteHis ways are unfathomable, unquestionable and HE is the ONLY wise God.
ReplyDeleteA big parry will be thrown for him over d River Jordan... congrats on the feat. I'm sure this man was mentally imbalanced. RIP to him
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahah
DeleteIt's a pity. Don't tempt the Lord God for His glory He will never share with mortals

ReplyDeleteDry fasting for 40 days and nite is not easy
Thou shall not tempt the Lord thy God.
ReplyDeleteTempt not your lord God. He will explain to God when he gets dir
ReplyDeleteNo man cash ever share God's Glory.
ReplyDeleteWho can compete with GOD? None. He killed himself I must say. I also heard of a very fetish man who told his followers that he will die and on the 3rd day rise again just like our saviour JESUS, he died and was buried but on the 3rd day his followers were waiting to see him again and as he was about waking up, thunder struck him dead and that was his end.
ReplyDeleteRIP to him.
ReplyDeleteGod can't be mocked whatever a man sows that he will reap.
ReplyDeleteHe works in mysterious ways and His ways are different from ours.
RIP Baba. ?Hope you made heaven. He tried o, up to 30days.
ReplyDeletelmao.
ReplyDeletelmao what a good way to die by trying to emulate jesus
ReplyDelete#GODWIN™
All these yeye new generation pastors trying to be equivalent to jesus. Una nvr c anything
ReplyDeleteDaring move but wrong timing......
ReplyDeleteIf you must embark on a 40 days and nights fast, make sure the glory of God is on you (literally) just like Moses. If not just eat fruits and drink water for that duration.
ReplyDeleteMay God give us the wisdom to follow Him diligently.
dont tempt the lord ur god,that was hw a man who called himself a man of God,who wanted to perform a wonders by riseing death people from death,so he told one of his members to act as if he was dead so dat he can rise him frm death in his church,on dat day d wife of d man carried him as if he was dead to church 4 d man to rise him as they planed,but d man of God prayed and prayed but d man did nt rise it was later comfirmed dat d man was really dead,it was later dat d man'swife confessed dat d man of god gave his hubby 50k to act as if he was dead,and now d man of god is now in jail becos he wanted to perform wonders by all means
