Theodore Mugalu

Theodore Mugalu is a William Branham "Message" cult leader[1] from the Democratic Republic of Congo and former DRC ambassador to Tanzania.[2] In 2018, Mugalu made news throughout Africa for his physical violence against members of the Catholic Church when he and several converts to the "Message" stripped the clothes off of Catholics and beat their naked flesh.

Taking William Branham's anti-Catholic doctrines literally, Mugalu organized a party of cult members to sabotage a peaceful march by members of the Catholic Church.  Mugalu instructed, "there must be fights", and "We must allow our soldiers to intervene".

'We have to help ourselves. You have seen that the Protestants want to join the Catholics. We have to help each other. Tomorrow (this Friday), I will ask the president to give me the financial means to help you. In exchange, on Sunday, I'm counting on you. Your faithful must go and sabotage the march of the Catholics, there must be fights, it must be possible to make believe that the Catholics are divided. These fights must also allow our soldiers to intervene. None of the pastors present dared to intervene. This Friday, they must return to the Mugalu office "to receive Judas' crowns", one of the two pastors told us. 'We cannot launch our faithful into such adventures. These people in power do not understand that our faithful are tired. They are hungry. They have no prospects. Some pastors are tempted, I saw it, the dollars will be on the table tomorrow but, personally, I can't do that. Besides, it would be the end of my church.[3]

Members of the "Message" in DRC joined Mugalu, and as soldiers, they attacked the Catholics.  Mugalu forced 145 Catholic priests and converts to undress and lie on the ground with their hands on their heads.  Once prostrate, the cult members began to beat them.  At least six people were killed.[4]

Taking advantage of the absence of the internet and social networks – cut off since Saturday to hamper the march of Christians and the reports on his repression – the minister indeed had these 145 people, including priests, filmed after having forced them to undress and lie on the ground with their hands on their heads – as they do in the Congo for thieves – assuring that this was proof that 'there is no peaceful march'. The minister received the support of other regime hawks, Pastor Théodore Mugalu, head of the Civil House of out-of-mandate President Joseph Kabila, and Joseph Kokonyangi, Deputy Secretary General of the Presidential Majority. But the video does not explain what they were doing on Minister Kabange Numbi's plot.

Mugalu, like many other black converts in Africa, are unaware that Branham's anti-Catholic end-of-days race war theology was rooted in white supremacy.  Branham taught the Christian Identity Doctrines of Wesley Swift, which Branham re-branded as his "Serpent's Seed" doctrine.  Though Branham did not use the words "black" or "jew" when he introduced Serpent's Seed, Branham traced the lineage of the "evil bloodline" from the theology through the descendants of Ham, the black-skinned inhabitants of Africa —  just as Swift taught.[5]  

This doctrine by Branham was closely tied to his anti-Catholic doctrine.  Branham taught his cult of personality to believe that the Catholic Church would rein over the descendants of the evil bloodline, or "the seed of the Serpent".

And, today, he's done the same thing, under the sign of spirit now, religious, professing Christianity, and taking our girls and marrying them to Catholic boys, and make them bring their children Catholic, to break the power of the other side. There is your demon. There is your devil seated on seven hills, wearing triple crowns, just as slick and cunning, smart, intellectual like the serpent; the seed of the serpent, his children, using the same intellectual techniques.[6]
