Why Do Smaller Churches Not Perform Miracles Like Their Headquarters by Oloruntobi4382(m): 8:57am On Aug 06, 2017
Why is it that smaller parishes of RCCG, Winners, CAC, Dunamis, Love World, e.t.c don't/can't heal the blind, deaf, dumb, insane, lame and cancer victims. Is it that miracles only happen on TV and not in those small congregations?

The headquarters was once SMALL... and they did not become BIG overnight. sO GIVE THEM TIME while praying for them. I know smaller churches that actually perform miracles and prophesy but they wont be as BIG as the HEADQUARTERS... so please stop thinking carnally

CAC Ondo state has many miracles.
Loveworld Ikorodu under Pastor Francis, has their own atmosphere for miracles with thousands...I HAVE PICS o and the miracles happen LIVE
RCCG Ikotun one of their parishes there is known for testimonies and signs and wonders
Winners.... they have so much testimonies and they grow faster than weeds.... no matter where they are.

The fact that you do not know does not mean they do not exist.... so do not generalize when you have not done adequate research.

guy guy guy

shey u r paying me to be your journalists ni? If you do not believe it doesn't change the climate of nigeria, you will still not believe cos you do not simply want to believe.
GROW UP na..... if the branches are exactly like the headquarters in everything.... THEN the head pastor or church founder may have to deal with loosing his members cos in naija everyone wants to be NUMBER 1.... and for many when there is power they want to go and start their own separate Churches.... ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY... so no matter the powers the "small" churches have... it wont be as great as the BIG ones because TIME and CHANCE happens to everyone.... Stop being a CHURCH INVESTIGATOR.... it wont pay you and it wont make you great!

WHEN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM IN YOUR LIFE.... you will discover that the small ones have power too o.
Critics like you wont change no matter the proof, even if I post videos of my own "small" Church.

That's because Nigerian Pentecostal miracles rely on the law of large numbers. Let me clarify.

You see it will be hard to stage a miracle in a small church because everyone knows everyone else. So if u bring a partially deaf man to the front of a small church and pretend to heal him and ask him to repeat the words u scream into his ears and the parade him as healed, the next Sunday people would have discovered the truth: the nigger is still as deaf as before.

But if u bring the same guy to a larger gathering, and apply the same subterfuge, by the next Sunday only his local parish will know. The majority of the church will still think he was healed and u can collect more tithes and offering from the next potential victims.
Another advantage is that u can easily mix actors and fake disables or invalids into the crowd in a large church and stage a miracle. But no one in the church will suspect this because everyone will think the fakers are from another parish.

This is why u hardly see a local invalid or cripple that u have known all ur life go to a crusade and get healed but countless unknown people claim to have healing at the same crusade

Lol. Not just acting. Sometimes even the disabled genuinely want to believe they have been healed so they play along in "faith". Like a guy that's a cripple for instance. He may not be entirely immobile. He may be able to walk a little. So during the prayer he gets up and forces himself with adrenaline to walk up and down hoping that God will continue from there. But as soon as the euphoria wears off, he is back on the wheelchair again.
Nobody vets these miracle pastors so they get away with a lot of lies and fake miracles
