Fake Miracles // The movie
Greetings!
Before these past few years, I used to watch all kinds of movies just to be entertained. Nollywood movies were especially appealing to me, including the meaningless and comic ones—I just love to be entertained.
The truth is, when it comes to finding meaning in movies, I would give it to our very own local movies because the settings revolve around our lifestyle. Among the many movies I've watched, one that really opened my eyes is "FAKE MIRACLES." There are many movies with this title if searched, but the one I'm referring to stars Kenneth Okonkwo as the main actor.
Description:
As the name implies, "FAKE MIRACLES" portrays the trend of fake miracles in churches and how people are easily drawn to them. In this movie, deep and well-packaged exposures are made, surpassing the rumors and stories I used to hear about how fake miracles are organized.
One particular part that caught my attention was when the people paid to stage receiving miracles were about to confess and reveal the truth to the public because they were not paid in full for their jobs. At that moment, the pastor decided to take their lives to bury the truth. Consequently, they resorted to using voodoo from a native doctor to make the people used in the fake miracles become deaf and dumb, run mad, or die immediately if they thought of revealing the truth.
In this movie, although voodoo was used to perform most of the miracles, which appeared very real, the parts that freaked me out were when they rented people to pretend to be lame, deaf, dumb, or dead and then got healed immediately when prayed upon.

The truth is, there are real miracles, no doubt about that. But looking deeper, most of the miracles we hear about today, even the ones performed by top men of God, are totally fake. In this movie, the clergy appeared real, original, and clean in the eyes of people. People believed him, and even some of the people working with him didn't know what he was up to; the whole system was incredibly well packaged.
The typical characteristics of flamboyant pastors were not seen in him—he was meek and humble, which never made the people suspect his acts.
This is the same thing happening in our world today. Most of these people appear very real, and only a few people know how they are getting their things done.
Like I said, I'm not saying I don't believe in miracles—I do believe in miracles—but I'm very careful about the things I applaud. In fact, I prefer it when a church or a clergy comes out plainly to say what they're using. I could mention names, but I will keep it reserved.
Meanwhile, most of us know which miracles are fake, and we still follow them because humans just love miracles.
Thanks for reading.
This movie is really wierd but as always anything fake always comes to light. So for those clergy that are into diabolical acts, it's only a matter of time and the truth will be revealed.
Throat cleared....
Most of them enjoy the fun and nothing backfires at the end, I mean when they're alive.
The thing looks lucrative though. Make all the money and nothing happens till one is dead(if one is lucky though)😅
😂😂
As you said, humans love miracles, so wherever there is miracle humans will go. Even when they can differenciate between the fake and real one.
Yeah, that's human being for us.
So much attracted to Miracles be it fake it real.
Thanks for reading
Yeah, people are easily drawn if they are desperate of something.
Yeah, that's just human nature.
We love to see Miracles 😅
Thank you for stopping by
This one that it starred Kenneth Okonkwo, is it an old movie? It looks like something I would actually enjoy as I have been watching a lot of old Nollywood movies lately. I already know that some churches do fake miracles but it will be interesting to watch a whole movie about it 😁
Yeah, movie was released 2016.
The revelation of truth in the movie was topnotch 😅.
Thank you for stopping by
I know you will love something like this, is it not you
It's a better movie to all those your lovey-dovey movie😅
What happens in churches today are what is being portrayed in movies, making us understand how these stuff works so one would be careful. There are fake pastors everywhere and one has to pray for the discerning spirits.

Yeah, that's just it.
The issue of fake pastors has become alarming and the worst thing is that most of us have been blindfolded already
Thanks for coming
This is the order of the day in major churches. People seek miracles above their lives and are so careless about the source of such miracle. Kudos, sir.
#dreemerforlife
Yeah, that's what's happening in our era.
May God help us.
Amen!
A lot of people are facing serious issues in their lives so anything that presents a glimmer of hope to them is a welcome. There are true miracles, but the fake ones are often so staged that it takes a lot of discernment to discover.
#dreemerforlife
That's just it.
Anything miracle, be it fake or real, magnetise humans.
There are real miracles but as it is now, the fake ones are dominating because of human greed.
Thank you for stopping by
The movie sounds very interesting. This is what is Happening in our society now, they're so many fake prophets out there, who claim they were sent by God , but their major aim is just to make money.
The most annoying part is, the members know this, but they're just blinded by the fact that they need a fast result.

This sucks!
I used to have one church at the back of my window at villa. You need to see how people were tripping for the miracle thing even when they knew the source isn't from God.
Human being and miracle ==== 5&6
Thank you🙌
You can imagine. Anything that's not from God doesn't bring forth good results, the devil always wants something in return. They'll surely have to pay a price for that healing someday.
I just hope people wake up and start reading and understanding the Bible for themselves, coz if they really understand the word, they won't be running about for a miracle
This is the biggest challenge.
You know, even at school, most people don't like reading.... they only read/cram to pass an exam.
Humans are just lazy, we don't want to stress it in knowing the truth, we just want to be told and fed🥲
Exactly, nobody wants to stress 😅.
That same hand that's feeding might poison them someday
Yeaaaaah.
