🚨Kenyan pervert and preacher Paul Mackenzie was convicted this week of murder in the deaths of 191 people, nearly all children, after ordering followers of his Good News International Church to starve themselves and their kids so they could “meet Jesus” before the world ended. More than 400 bodies have been recovered from the Shakahola Forest compound since 2023. His apocalyptic message didn’t emerge in isolation. Court testimony and reporting trace key elements of his doctrine to American evangelical and Pentecostal sources. Investigators and former members link his end-times radicalism to mid-20th-century American healer William Branham, whose “End-Time Message” materials circulated widely. Branham, a Pentecostal evangelist who helped launch the postwar healing revival, promoted isolation from secular institutions, rejection of modern medicine, and a rigid hierarchy of spiritual purity. Those ideas echoed in Mackenzie’s ban on schools, hospitals, and government IDs. A Black American pastor named Yeshaiah Alexander, described in testimony as a friend of Mackenzie, further shaped the group’s fatal turn. Witnesses said Alexander introduced the “Kibbutz” model of communal, secluded living around 2019. That concept helped justify the move into the remote forest, where guards enforced fasting and children were isolated first. Mackenzie also invited other foreign preachers, including white pastors, to mentor the flock. Though Mackenzie publicly denounced the U.S. as part of a satanic “New World Order,” his movement drew from the same American Pentecostal ecosystem of personal revelation, end-times urgency, and rejection of worldly systems that has long exported Christianity across Africa. The Kenyan court ruled the church operated as a structured doomsday cult with a “hierarchy of death.” The case shows how American evangelical networks, through traveling preachers, recorded sermons, and informal partnerships, can seed extreme interpretations abroad. As Mackenzie awaits sentencing, Shakahola raises questions about the unexamined export of radical American Christian ideas and the body count left in their wake
