A young lady has met her death after a failed miracle attempt by her South African pastor. According to wire reports reaching GhanaStar.com a South African pastor in a bid to perform a miracle, caused the death of the young lady after putting a heavy speaker on her. The girl died due to internal injuries she sustained.
The reports indicate that Congregates of the Mount Zion General Assembly went home with heads down on Sunday after a failed demonstration of power by the church pastor when a girl fainted after he put a very big and heavy speaker on top of her, promising her that she would not feel pain.
The woman later died from internal injuries caused to her lungs. Pastor Lethebo Rabalango had organised a night of worship at his church in Polokwane where he was teaching about the demonstration of power in which he emphasised that if Jesus walked on water, he too could do anything with faith.
Based on that point, he invited a girl from the praise team and asked her to lie down. He then ordered the ushers to carry a big speaker and put on her stomach saying the weight would not harm her. He then climbed on top of the speaker, adding pressure to suffocate the girl who remained quiet for she had already passed out.
After seating on top of the speaker which was still on the girl’s stomach for close 5 minutes, he got up and ordered the removal of the speaker, but the girl could not rise because she had fainted.
It took some elders giving her first aid treatment that she came back but complained of a broken rib. She was then taken to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.
The pastor, however, blamed the girl and accused her of having little faith for she could not withstand a very simple task.
