EKO HOT BLOG reports that this response comes after viral videos featured testimonies from Church members, including a controversial claim from one member who said they had ridden on a lion.
The Church reiterated that these testimonies are authentic expressions of faith and should not be dismissed as fabrications.
They called on the public to disregard disparaging comments and approach such matters with discernment and understanding.
In the testimony, the Church member had stated, “Something entered my back, lifted me up. It carried me like an aeroplane to express.”
“When it reached there, it dropped me. When it dropped me, I turned to look at what carried me and as I looked it was lion.
“So when the lion dropped me, the place was very narrow and tight, it now raised one hand up and asked me to go like this (pointing to the left). When I go, the lion said bye bye.”
In another viral video, a lady said he fought robbers and took their AK-47 rifles.
In the footage, the elderly woman revealed that she was attacked by armed robbers.
She said she “Miraculously gained control of their guns and ensured the arrest of three of the robbers.”
Similarly, a man revealed that he survived kidnapping, machete attacks, and gunshot wounds “without injury”.
However, reacting to the videos and the reactions trailing them, the Lord’s Chosen Church said the footages were doctored.
The Head, Public Relations and Media, of the church, Pastor Chidi Louis, described the videos as “a bid to discredit what God is doing.
“Nigerians should visit the Church’s platform and listen to the complete testimonies for better understanding. The woman defeated the armed men in a dream.
“Don’t believe everything you see on the internet. They just cut one part and made it look real. The woman was explaining her dream.
“The viral video is a fake one. It was doctored.
“Most of these bloggers are very wicked and devilish, they edited this testimony in a bid to ridicule the work of God.”
