It had to happen. He breached our Covid rules by having mass public meetings during when a gathering had to be limited to 100 people. He did it three times before, and in spite of being told that he would be remanded in custody the next time he did it, he got bail two more times. This time, after having another mass meeting in Christchurch he has been arrested, and he should be remanded in custody pending his court appearance and sentencing.
Brian Tamaki, self-styled "Bishop" and "Apostle" does not speak for Christians in general. In fact, he is giving Christianity a bad name. Also, his members wave the Maori nationalist flag at their gatherings, giving the impression they speak for all New Zealand Maori. Such is not the case. Most Maori people are annoyed at this and are not hesitant to say that the Destiny Church certainly does not speak for the Maori people of New Zealand. Tamaki had threatened to sue the Prime Minister, the Director General of Health, the Minister for Health and the Governor General, such is the arrogance of the man.
A number of years ago, the Destiny church male members had a march down the main street in downtown Auckland. They were dressed in black shirts, and directly compared to an aggressive fascist black shirt parade seen in Mussolini's Italy.
The Destiny Church is not a Christian church. It is a religious cult, fleecing its members of a compulsory 10% of their income to pay the "Bishop's" exorbitant salary (greater than even the Prime Minister's) and demanding a binding oath of loyalty to the "Bishop". Didn't all the members of Hitler's SS have to make a similar oath to Adolf Hitler?
If you want to see the antiChrist spirit in action, take a good look at the Destiny church!
