Ban On Telecast Of Miracles/testimonies On Tv: Hypocrisy Of Nbc & Pfn by mikeapollo: 5:31pm On Sep 28, 2010
Something just crossed my mind after watching telly this morning.
I remember the ban on telecast of Miracles&Testimonies on Nigerian terrestial TV channels imposed by the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) on religious organiszations with the active collusion and conivance of the PFN, apparently because of the wave making healing ministries of TB Joshua and Pastor Chris.
But guess what? Turning Point, a religious programme anchored by US based Nigerian, Victor Oladokun has been having airtime on terrestial TV stations like AIT, NTA, Channels TV without any problem. I am not against Turning Point. Infact I believe their programme is touching lives and winning souls, and should be encouraged.
The programme shows testimonies of people who assert that they received their miracle and were touched by God  delivered from their problems after praying or having a divine encounter with someone or something. The event is then simulated for better understanding of the viewers.
In the case of Christ Embassy and especially The Synagogue, real video recordings of the condition of the testimony giver and even the prayer session.
Why is the NBC that banned the telecast of miracles/testimonies with authentic video recordings of 'Before' and 'After' situations/conditions of the beneficiairies, including when prayer was offerred by a man of God, could turn a blind eye to a similar foreign programme with only simulation of the story as evidence?

How I wish the hypocrites in the Pharisees Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) would complain about Turning Point. Why are they not saying the Turning Point programme would mislead 'gullible' Nigerians who run after Miracles like thay said about The Synagogue/Christ Embassy miracle/testimonies programmes on tv?

This shows clearly that the ban on the showing of miracles / testimonies on Nigerian terrestial stations by Nigeria based religious bodies was targeted at Pastor Chris, and TB Joshua especially. It reminds me of the attitude of the pharisees who wanted to kill and silence Lazarus and blind man who whose sight was restored because their testimonies was helping to draw more followership to Jesu Christ.

Is it not laughable that a body (PFN)that claims to be a member of religious faith group (Christianity) could collude with an ignorant minister to place a  ban on one of the key spects of Christianity, which is testifying to the miraculous works of our God.

By their fruits, you shall know them! PFN is a shame!
