Don’t Be Carried Away By Testimonies You Hear In Churches – Kelvin Ugwu Warns

A Catholic missionary priest working in Gambia, Fr Kelvin Ugwu, has warned people not to believe in miraculous testimonies except it has been properly verified.

The clergyman advised against being carried away by testimonies they hear in churches.

Naija News reports the statement comes amidst controversial videos of church members sharing their testimonies during church service.

The development has left many netizens questioning the authenticity of the testimonies.

In one of the videos, an elderly woman claimed she was attacked by four armed robbers in the dream.

According to her, 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”, sparking questions and concerns about the authenticity of the miracles.

However, the catholic priest stated that people should treat them as fake and lies as long as they have not been independently verified.

“Don’t be carried away by the miracle testimonies you hear in churches or ministries; as long as they have not been independently verified, treat them as fake and lies,” he wrote on his Facebook page on Monday.
