WATCH | Mzansi shooketh after video of pastor bringing 'dead man' back to life goes viral
A video of pastor Alph Lukau of Alleluia Ministries bringing a "dead" man back to life during a church services has gone viral on social media.
During the service, the coffin with the man's body is removed from the hearse as a crowd of people gather around it.
A woman who claims to be the man's landlord tells Lukau that the man got sick and started coughing on Friday, which prompted them to take him to the hospital. "That is where he died in my hands," she said.
Lakau begins to pray for the body, which reportedly came straight from the mortuary, prompting the man to sit up in the coffin with his mouth and eyes wide open.
The video has received criticism from many on social media, as many expressed their disbelief.
So a pastor in South Africa brought a dead man back to life.

Imagine they hire you to play dead so that a Pastor looks like a miracle worker in Jesus' times. SMH Dear Africans, we need to get serious! Unemployment might be real in our continent but that doesn't mean we do everything stupid to earn money.

This is very poor acting by the one who is supposed to be dead. Even when we wake up from sleep we don't sit up right immediately. And what's with Zombie look? 😂 https://t.co/xXGvTFlC2g
