Pastor Lukau under fire for staging ‘resurrection’ miracle in church

February 25, 2019 Nyasa Times Reporter 59 Comments

Things are turning ugly for South Africa’s Pastor Alph Lukau who is facing public criticism for ‘increasingly staging miracles in his church’ with an aim of gaining popularity.

Lukau lays his hands on the dead man in a white suit named Elliot, prays and boom! – the man is brought back to life.

Congolese born Lukau runs an over 8 000 membership church in Sandton, South Africa, and has been in the news lately for allegedly staging ‘miracle’ to court attention.

The recent backlash concerns a miracle of resurrecting a dead person in his church on Sunday.

It is being reported that people brought to a church a dead person in the coffin and Lukau opened the coffin, prayed for the dead person and the person returned back to life.

This has rattled various quarters of Christians who find the move as ‘typical of spiritual fraudsters who use antics to fool people.’

Social media is currently awash with questions as to who, in the first place, certified the person dead with many Malawians also questioning Lukau v: Is this real? Why did the man not look like someone who’d been dead two days? Where is his death certificate? Why was he not immediately tended to by a health care professional?

The questions outnumber the answers by far.

The South Africa department of health is said to be launching an investigation into matter because it suspects some gimmicks being involved.

Meanwhile, the Kings and Queens Real Funeral Services, whose vehicle was used to carry the coffin, has distanced itself that the supposed deceased person was at their mortuary.

Malawians on social media recently questioned Luaku when he was caught on  video clip making fake prophecies on  an Machinjiri area in Blantyre,  naming street names purportedly belong to thee township when in actual fact there  are no streets names he was mentioning.

Lukau has also raised eyebrows for claiming to heal HIV/Aids, TB and other illnesses.

However, unlike his counterparts, Lukau has not faced any criminal charges nor been referred to the Commission for the Promotion and Protection of Cultural and Religious Rights (CRL).

He has, however, been embroiled in a legal battle with South African-based Nigerian journalist Solomon Ashoms after Lukau sued Ashoms for defamation of character after the journalist claimed he was a fake preacher on his Facebook account.

  4. Kodi what is God doing??? is he sleeping?? these CON Prophets really know how to pull a stunt …….. firstly its Bushiri walking on air and than angels appear physically in his church….Now this Lukau raises the dead hahahahahaha the competition is real

  5. The way I know an African!! Kungoona munthu wakufa atadzuka, you mean mungaone otsalira in that church?? you ae joking guys!! Everyone would have been out of that church in seconds, running in all directions especially azibale akewo.

    1. as much as sindinganene zambiri pankhaniyi, koma kunena moona, sitinganene kuti Mfurika aliyense ngwamantha ngati mmene aliri ena, mukuona kwanga ena akanathawadi, komabe pakanatsalira enanso okhala ndichidwi kuti aonetsetse ngatidi zili zoona kuti munthu waukitsidwa kwaakufa, motero akanayandikilabe kuti amvetsetse, otherwise khaya zachitikadi kapena ayi nza fake, akudziwa ndi Mulungu ngakhalenso eni ache nkhaniyi onse muupangili wao…God will bring everything into judgement !

  6. ngati ulimwano kuzolowelera kutukwana ndikunyoza ma president anu, please spare the men of God one,

  8. If god can’t even stop fraudsters from using his name, how can he stop corruption or theft or hunger or famine.

    There is no god. Lets get rid of this thinking which was brought to us by Europeans to make is docile so they could rob us and control us.

    1. anti-Christ, you will need this God when things have come over you, time is counting on, may be you created yourself, and all that we see as well as don’t see are your handwork, not so?

    2. You’re speaking my language Tariq. God doesn’t exist. The sooner we realize that, the better for us all.

      1. You are just a single voice in a billion saying God doesnt exist. Nobody can hear you. God is real. He loves you so turn to him

    3. tariq, finally we have people like u who are using their brains! U r very correct. Religion is for idiots, that’s why even monkey’s don’t have male monkey’s of God, monkey prophets, monkey priests, monkey bishops, monkey sheiks, monkey clergy.

    4. be very careful with your utterances. if you claim the europeans brought God to us and we are being blinded, then you are displaying ignorance in the highest degree because i am very sure you pride yourself with formal education. Ask yourself who brought formal education? Its the whites who brought that too to confuse you. Besides Christianity has many evidences to show. if one man is muddying the waters doesnt mean that is the true picture of christianity… the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom

  9. South Africans n most of Malawians believe blindly. This is purely fake n staged. That is y most thieves go to this country pretending different types of profession like witch doctors or pastors. Government should put in place methods of rooting out this evils from our societies.

    1. yes i agree, like they banned ma prophets in rwanda, they are killing our sociaties, promoting witchcraft and the result is a lazy & stupid nation, instead of working hard starting with education, you just want to kill people to get rich basi. govt should do something about these fake prophets get them out.

    2. is the government on the right(or far much corrupt than what you could imagine?)…let “GOD” bring to the “light” all that is done in darkness including your own character…check one’s log in your own eye, before becoming critical on another man’s speck…

  10. Get him a real dead person from hosiptal and see if he will resurrect him. Do you think we dont have dead person who would love to be resurrected?

  11. Its simple to prove this…. Just get him a real dead person from government mortuary. Do you think we don’t have really dead people in mortuaries?

  14. Yes!! Fake or no fake here is my take::: Eliot I think has family. I mean mother,father,sisters,uncles, brothers and name them. Can the whole family agree to the faking of death?

    4. A Kaboko ndinu ogona. Zoti funeral home yakana kale simunamve? And how often do you comment on stupid things done by your relatives? Sometimes you just gossip about it like everyone else, wondering aloud what’s going on in your relative’s head for him to fake his own death and resurrection.

  15. Bushiri followers, do you think this is real? If you doubt this man and believe Bushiri, then you are under Bushiri’s spell. Both are using tricks from the same book.

    2. For once can you leave the name of Bushiri alone and mention other Prophets who also performs miracles! Ukapanda ku mutchula Bushiri ukomoka?

  16. NATURALLY , MOST BLACK SOUTHAFRICANS ARE STUPID OR RATHER BRAINLESS PEOPLE ……..INFACT MOST CONMEN FROM OTHER COUNTRIES GO TO THIS COUNTRY TO MAKE EASY MONEY SO THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY HERE
    ARREST THE GUY AND YOU WILL SEE THEM PROTESTING.

    1. I totally agree with you. Too much ignorance and searching for easy riches. No wonder hard working white man still controls South African economy despite being less than 10 percent of the population.

    1. MAU AMULUNGU AMATI CHIYANI MATEYU 10:1- 6 MULUNGU ADAPELEKA MPHAMVU YOTI WAKUFA ANGATHE KUDZUTSIDWA , MAU ONENA KUTI MIRACLE AMATANTHAUZA CHIYANI? KODI BWANJI ANTHU MUMAKONDA KUMUCHEMELERA SATANA KODI MULUNGU ADASIYA KUCHITA ZOZIZWA ? CHOZIZWISA CHILI CHONSE CHIKACHITIKA WACHITA NDI SATANA. MULUNGU OSAONEKERAPO. NDIMENE SATANA AKUKUGWIRISILANI NTCHITO. WERENGANI MAU AMULUNGU YESU WAPELEKA MPHAMVU YOCHITA ZIMENEZI. ALIPO ATUMIKI AMBIRI AMENE ADZUTSA AKUFA SINKHANI YOYAMBA IMENEYI . CHIMENE INE NDIKUDZIWA NDICHAKUTI SATANA SAPELEKA MOYO KWAKE NDI KUPHA NDI KUBA NDI KUONONGA. POPEMPHERA AMAPEMPHERA MUDZINA LA NDANI KUTI MUNTHUYU ADZUKE. ONANIPO MPHAMVU YA MULUNGU PAMENEPA OSATI SATANA

      1. Inunso a m’dala bamboo. Zoti yesu ananena kuti masiku omaliza kudzabwera aneneri onyenga ndipo adzachilitsa anthu ndi kuukitsa anthu m’dzina lake koma tisadzawatsate simudziwa?

      2. I watched the clip and the first question I asked myself was how someone who was dead for three days could stand and walk after resurrection without water or food. We have seen people in our families who gain consciousness and the first thing we do is to give him water and/or porridge. You should have watched the distance he walked .
        Secondly, how did they see his fingers moving as reported by the lady, when he was nailed in the coffin. They’re a lot of anomalies to what happened if one is to make a serious analysis of the episode.

  23. Like CONMAN bushiri and others, this one must be arrested too. He and the many fake prophets couldn’t practice their stupidity in the developed world hence can only be in Africa.

  24. For me I don’t doubt that is real according to advancement of Prophetic ministries nowadays. I was expecting it that oneday it’s going to happen only that it came so soon. Keep on questioning but I can tell you the way God revealing Himself now you will not understand. If you doubt you will be another Thomases of our days

    2. I am with you bro me i believe and no questions bcoz God have done alot to me….if someone dont believe let them be….we are in near end

    4. I think you should have said, “advancement of con artists ministries” and not “advancement of prophetic ministries”. There is a big difference there!

    5. what is so special about that fake dead guy, out of all the dead people in the world why would God choose him to be resurrected hahahahahahahahaha joke of the century
