"Miracle Pastor's" Facebook and Twitter accounts still active

The social media accounts of South Africa's “miracle pastor” Dr Siva Moodley, who has reportedly been in a morgue since August, are still very active months after his apparent death.

The body of Moodley, founder of The Miracle Centre, has allegedly been lying in a Johannesburg morgue since his death in August while his church “prays for his resurrection”.

Some congregants have been asking on his Facebook account if news of his death is true. Many of the questions regarding his death have since been deleted from the church's Facebook, and his own, pages.

Moodley’s Twitter account is still active, with daily inspirational Bible verses and updates about upcoming church services.

Siva's wife, Jessie, their son David and daughter Kathryn, are now in charge of running the church.

The undertaker, Martin du Toit, where Siva's body was apparently kept, previously told the media that he had struggled to reach the family so they could collect the pastor’s body. The family met Du Toit only after media reports about the death of the pastor.

According to Du Toit, while the body was in storage he had struggled to get confirmation from the family to make funeral arrangements.

“They were not taking my calls and not contacting me, so we've been waiting for them to come back to us,” said Du Toit.

He added that the family had since asked him to stop doing media interviews.

Christian commentator and magazine editor Solomon Ashoms Izang told TimesLIVE that Moodley passed away in August and his family did not bury him because they believed he would be resurrected — as he had prophesized.

“His family and church leaders have not announced his death officially because they believe he will rise from death. They have been praying for his resurrection ever since he died,” Izang said.

He said this was in line with preaching by Moodley.

“He used to preach that you can’t die and used to say no sickness can kill a person. So this is ... totally different to his preaching,” he said.

The church website and Moodley’s Twitter account have not said anything about his death.

Efforts to reach the family and church have been unsuccessful.

The church is alleged to have performed miracles, with the tagline on its website being, “miracles are normal”.

Some of the miracles the pastor performed, according to testimonies on the church website, include resurrecting a baby from the dead, healing someone with cancer, healing a crippled leg and helping someone who was struggling to fall pregnant.

His family and church leaders have not announced his death officially because they believe he will rise from death. They have been praying for his resurrection ever since he died,” Izang said.

Lol , no one beats Nigerians. An ordinary Nigerian is a religious fanatic by nature.

But yeah, I somewhat agree - South Africans bury after just one week following death. Four months is absolutely bonkers.

To expect a man to resurrect after 4 months is height of foolishness... Undisputed.

Let's give it South Africans, please.

Hello, peace I bring unto you

How are you and yours

What of the snake pastor

It’s been long I heard from him

Bushiri don run go him country

No man can ever rise from the dead... Jesus Christ did that and closed the door...so don't think you will tell me you will die after some days you will rise from the dead.... that's the highest foolishness anyone will exhibit....
Because the moment you kiss this Earth good bye, you ain't coming back...

No let anyone fool you ooo, except when the person hasn't been certified dead medically....

It's true Jesus Christ said with faith you can move mountains but he never said "With faith you can rise from the dead"

I wonder the type of meth these god of men takes, I'm sure it's not the type my brothers in the east take... It can't make you to play God...

I trust my Nigerian god of men, they will never try that rubbish, when they know they cannot change water to wine, is it to rise from the dead they want to try...all they need is enhance their motivational speaking skills, more tithes and offerings will be coming in .....

No time to try wetin go spoil market for you.
