All Miracles You See on TV, Crusades Are Staged, Not Real – Father Kelvin Ugwu

Rev Fr. Kelvin Ugwu, MSP, a Catholic Priest on a mission in Malawi, has recognized the untrue nature of TV miracles.

The contemporary figure in pastoral ministry had remained very sensitive to the spiritual needs of not only the persons occupying the pews in the church, but also those in cyberspace.

In them, he saw the ‘Macedonian Church’ in need of help thus he noted why TV miracles are acted.

He said:
“It is a sign that the minister is fake when he is being advertised ahead of a church program as a healer. Anyone who truly has the gift of healing does not make noise about it and won’t be comfortable when it is used for an advert to pull a crowd or to make him or her famous.

The “testimonies” you read at the back of a church flyer whenever they want to advertise a crusade or a program are often half-truths and concocted lies. Someone will tell you how she has been barren for 10 years and miraculously conceived and gave birth to twins after the “man of God” laid hands on her stomach, yet, just a little investigation into the case and you will discover that the woman did IVF. Why was that part of the story hidden?

Almost all the so-called miracles you see on TV or crusades are staged. Those that are not staged are more of psychological manipulations than a miracle.

In the Catholic Church, for anything to pass as a TRUE miracle, it must be open to a third-party investigation. The third-party must be an independent person who plays the devil’s advocate.

You do not claim that a miracle has happened because someone stood up from a wheelchair in your “Three-day power-packed Miracle Signs and Wonders Revival with the anointed Prophet Dr. Evang Tom-Tom Chewing-gum.”

The ordinary questions should be:
Who is the person?
Where is the person coming from?
What is the medical condition as presented by a doctor?
Has it been concluded by experts and did they do a proper diagnosis before the miracle that it will be medically impossible for the person to walk again?

Asking those questions does not make you an unbeliever. Our faith is what St Anselm describes as Fides quaerens intellectum (faith seeking understanding).”
