The Ministry of Repentance and Holiness, led by Prophet Dr. David Owuor, has firmly denied viral claims suggesting the world will come to an end on August 2, 2025. In an official statement released on August 1, the church termed the rumors as false, malicious, and unbiblical.
The statement, signed by Senior Archbishop Michael Nieswand, reiterated that Prophet Owuor has never predicted such an event and remains aligned with biblical teaching that no one knows the exact time of the end.
“We, the leadership and congregation of The Ministry of Repentance and Holiness, strongly denounce the recent spread of false and misleading information about The World Ending on August 2nd, 2025.”
“Prophet Dr. Owuor has always been very categorical on the fact that nobody knows the day or the hour when the Messiah will return, as the Bible clearly states in Matthew 24:36,” the statement read in part.
The church emphasized that it had already addressed the matter publicly in an earlier statement on July 13. The clarification was also broadcast by national and regional media, including KBC News on July 14 and Radio 47 on July 15.
Labeling the doomsday speculation as “false, baseless, and malicious,” the ministry warned that the spread of such misinformation aims to discredit both Prophet Owuor and the church’s message of repentance and holiness.
“These claims are false, baseless, malicious, and intended to harm not only the reputation of The PROPHET OF THE LORD, DR. DAVID OWUOR AND THE MINISTRY OF REPENTANCE AND HOLINESS, but also the unity and testimony of our Church.”
The statement urged the public, media practitioners, and online influencers to exercise responsibility by avoiding the circulation of unverified information.
“As believers, we are called to pursue truth, peace, and righteousness. Let us not be quick to spread gossip, but instead be diligent in prayer, discernment, and unity,” the statement concluded.
The church has called on its members and the broader Christian community to remain steadfast in faith and reject fear-driven narratives that contradict scripture.
“We urge all media houses, bloggers, content creators, all social media users, and the general public to refrain from sharing or entertaining unverified allegations. As believers, we are called to pursue truth, peace, and righteousness. Let us not be quick to spread gossip, but instead be diligent in prayer, discernment and unity.”
