Born again Christians across the country whose names don’t have meaning that praises God have chosen new names which have deep meaning in the Christian faith.
We have been informed that many born again Christians have dropped their meaningless traditional names in favour of names such as Divine, Mercy, Grace, Muwanguzi (winner) among others.
The head of the born again faith in Uganda, Pastor Joseph Serwadda says that their members have not changed their names today; the process has been going on for the last so many years.
Serwadda says that born again Christians don’t need the government to first allow them to change names. He says that in their faith a believer can drop a certain name and pick another of his/her choice.
Speaking to our informers in Kampala today, Serwadda however explained that the born again Christians who need to change their names legally are free to go to the courts of law and do so.
