A NORTON-BASED prophet, at Tree of Life International Ministries, has been forced to relocate after his claims to have the resurrection powers were proved to be FAKE.
His attempt to bring to life a deceased congregant failed.
Prophet Vincent Nyamadzawo was thoroughly beaten by mourners after his two-hour prayer failed to bring the late Sekuru Fungo to life.
Ironically, Nyamadzawo had prayed for the deceased about 30 minutes before his death.
When Fungo died, the prophet claimed that he was only asleep and he needed two hours to resurrect him.
However, it backfired and the church has since shut down after his followers stopped attending his services citing fake prophecies.
Nyamadzawo packed his property on Wednesday last week and left for Mvurwi where he found another home to start afresh.
He had also caused a storm after allegedly approaching girls from his church in their WhatsApp inboxes and asking them if they were virg!ns.
When contacted, the prophet said:
“I am busy right now, ndikuda kutobuda ndakamirirwa nemota. I am not able to talk about that issue.”
During his two-hour prayer at the hospital, Nyamadzawo said:
“If Jesus raised Lazarus then what will stop me?”
The deceased’s daughter, Elizabeth, said:
“Kana munhu afirwa zvonetsa kutambira ndaingoti zvimwe baba vachamuka asi zvaramba,”said Elizabeth.
One of the elders from the church condemned the prophet.
“Vamwe baba vemwana vekuchurch vakafa.
“Doctors declared him dead and the relatives were ordered to sign documents for the body to be taken to the mortuary.
“The prophet ordered the relatives not to sign the papers claiming that he would resurrect him, he then started praying for the deceased.
“He had prayed for him 30 minutes before his death.”
Another church member added:
“The pastor went to pray for the deceased while he was still alive in hospital but vachibva ikoko akabva asara achifa.
“So, he was approached by the deceased’s daughter whom he advised not to sign documents for the body to be taken to the mortuary.
“He advised that he would resurrect him and begged some nurses to pray for him and he was allowed in.
“But his efforts did not yield results until the nurses decided to move him outside.
“The guard also ordered him out achiti anga akuita kunge munhu akupenga until munhu azoendeswa kumortuary.
“The church collapsed since he was making fake prophets and dissing congregants.
“Pastor ava ndevefake, vanga vauya kuzotsvaga mari kune vanhu.
“He was also moving around claiming that there were no virg!ns in the church.
“It looked like he was looking for virg!ns in church. He would inbox girls around 12 midnight asking kuti muri mavirg!ns here.”
Another congregant said:
“I am part of this story since I am one of the church members.
“We had to confront him and people started beating the pastor.”
