Bishop-Martin Mtumbuka

The Roman Catholic Church in Malawi has condemned same-sex marriages describing them as “sinful”.

According to Bishop Martin Mtumbuka of the Karonga Diocese, same sex-marriages go contrary to teachings of the Holy Bible.

Mtumbuka was speaking during a Catholic Women Organization annual meeting held in the diocese.

Bishop-Martin Mtumbuka: Says homosexuality is a sin.

Speaking at the function, minister of foreign affairs and international cooperation, George Chaponda said Malawians have power to approve same sex marriage without interference from the international community.

“As a country we may wish to have same sex marriages but we need to consider what Malawians want, even in the United States of America, not all states have opted for same sex marriages because the issue is sensitive,” said Chaponda.

Meanwhile, the United Nations (UN) has commended Malawi government for dropping the charges levelled against two gays, Cuthbert Kulemela and Kelvin Gonani, who were arrested for being suspected of having sexual intercourse.

  34. sadly in the end same sex marriage will be adopted and put into law. whether we resist this or not, its spreading already. then I say to you who is a God fearing person , the time has come for you to be more rooted in your faith. a lot must happen in this world to show that the end is to come. hang on to what you belive in ,

  35. My Bishop thumb up!It does not even qualify to call it marriage.A skirt and a brouse completes the dressing of a person covering top and bottom.How can one who has put on only two blouses you begin to call it full dressing?Whoever suspended gay arrest in 2013 is to blame and should have been condemned.

    12. About the laws it was a hoax “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” Depending on who’s counting, that’s the Eighth or Ninth of the Ten Commandments. Either way, it’s part of the Ten Commandments, which makes it both ironic and unfortunate that so many falsehoods are spread about the Catholic Church and the Ten Commandments. Here are three that you might have heard. You can read the whole story here http://shamelesspopery.com/ten-commandments-falsehoods/

    6. I wonder South Africa is Rich country and accept Guy, wt about a small and poor country in the name of malawi, bt Nomal pple cant sex wth fellow male, Accept it we want chithandizo

  66. The Constitution Of Malawi Is Set Up Of Democratic Based Principles. Lets First Go Back To One Party System Thus When This Can Be Impossible.Democracy Has Only Principles And Not Rules Where As Bible Is Made Up Of Rules.Malawi Will Not Reject Same Sex Marriage Unless Catholic Leaders Change The Constitution Or Become Donors To Malawi. Country

Money its all abt money accepting evii bcoz of money MALIWI where r u going MALAwi.,,,if ur God bcame angry American cn nt save u Malawi.ok i prophecy 2 any1 encouraging same-sex in this God fearing nation may hi never see good days in his life.may soon his life ended some1 take his job may his children bcame orphans bcame beggars atill he knos that this is aGOD fearing nation.

  71. Leave these idiots do what they want.after all kumatakoko ndikwawo.lets talk of our ailing economy,water shortages,our wrong vote of the Blue party,Blackouts etc…..go to Italy homosexuals are every where.why should we waste time with nonsense.

  74. Kkkkk koma,now you’ve seen it as sinful,you better saying this from deepdown your heart,osati chiphamaso.after all if you’re against it,that’s gud idea.

  75. CCAP already condemned homosexuality basing on Biblical perspective in 2010. I concur with the Bishop in saying NO to Homosexuality.

  78. The bible is clear, in the last days shout of homosexual rights will increase. We can condemn but happily we say time is up may The Lord Jesus come
