THIS kind of thing has to be stopped, and I mean right now! False Christians and charlatans are giving True Christians(tm) like me a bad name. I HEAL PEOPLE IN CHRIST'S NAME! 
He’s a con artist! Mboro is after your moolah!
“John 4:1-3: Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. ” Jesus Christ warned his disciples.
Sunday World can today reveal that one of those false prophets could be none other than self-proclaimed prophet Paseka Motsoeneng of Incredible Happenings church in Katlehong.
Motsoeneng portrays himself as a son of God who deals with evil spirits. His “healing powers”, screened on Soweto TV every Sunday, have attracted thousands of unsuspecting people from across the country to his church.
They flock to the church hoping to receive or witness Motsoeneng’s miracle cures.
Sadly, Motsoeneng’s miraculous healing powers flighted on TV are not true. They are in fact acts carefully stage-managed by Motsoeneng and his TV crew.
Among other things, a Sunday World two-month investigation has revealed that:
An episode widely shown on Soweto TV of a teenager who claims to have “given birth to stones” after allegedly being helped by the man many people have come to know as Mbhoro, is suspicious.
The Sunday World team was present when the woman was “treated” but we did not see stones coming out of her private parts.
Instead, what the Sunday World witnessed was Motsoeneng plunging his fingers into the woman’s vagina, which he referred to as the woman’s “biscuits”. Afterwards the woman was bleeding profusely.
Mbhoro was recently shown on TV enabling a wheelchair-bound person to stand up and walk. This episode led to many wheelchair-bound people flocking to his church for help.
Sunday World has discovered that this incident was staged too. Throughout our investigation, Motsoeneng simply ignored folk in wheelchairs and other paralysed people who were desperate for help.
During our first visit, one such desperate man asked Mbhoro to pray for him. The man, who is paralysed from the waist down, said: “Please pray for me. This part of me doesn’t work”.
Mbhoro just touched him and said: “I’m tired and hungry. Do you want me to die of hunger?”
He then ignored the man and simply went to pray for people whose situation was not dire.
Many people in Katlehong talk about how Motsoeneng has managed to transform himself from being an ordinary pastor into an overnight millionaire.
He has more than 15 heavily armed bodyguards who carry rifles to his church services and he has more than 20 servants.
Every Sunday, he waltzes into his church at the old Metro Cash’n Carry outlet building next to Katlehong bottle store to preach the word of God.
The bodyguards take turns in following his movements while others are strategically positioned to watch the crowd, as if he is a VIP whose life is under threat. This has raised many questions.
His church services attract more than 5000 people from all walks of life, who converge on the deserted building every Sunday.
When they arrive at Motsoeneng’s “Promised Land”, he milks almost every penny out of their pockets.
He asks for donations and sells stuff that he claims has holy healing powers.
Among the holy things he sells, are 5-litre bottles of water with his portrait on it and the name of the church at a cost of R65.
What people don’t know is that this water is from a tap at a house in Katlehong’s Nhlapho section.
He also sells packets of pads to both men and women, packs of candles, a DVD and a container of petroleum jelly that also has his portrait on it.
Donors are given white envelopes in which they are expected to put only bank notes towards the end of each service.
And some congregants pay up to R1000 ($3.00 USD) for his help.
At the end of his TV show on Sunday, the TV channel supplies the viewers with banking details for people who want to join his scheme, which is called Scheme sa Mbhoro.
The minimum joining fee is R100 ($.30 USD) every Sunday.
Motsoeneng did not return our calls or acknowledge receipt of our correspondence.
As a result of Sunday World’s probe, Soweto TV said it would launch an investigation to establish if people who claimed to have been miraculously healed by Motsoeneng are telling the truth .
This was conveyed to this newspaper by the station’s acting manager Vutomi Mushwana yesterday.
Mushwana decided to launch this investigation after we informed the station that the teenager who announced on Motsoeneng’s programme that stones had come out of her private parts after the prophet helped her, had not told the truth.
Mushwana told Sunday World that Motsoeneng invited her to view the unedited tape at his house in the East Rand on Friday night.
“I arrived at his house but he failed to show up. He has now promised to give us the video of stones coming out of the girl’s vagina and her medical records on Tuesday next week.
“We view this allegation in a very serious light and we will leave no stone unturned to establish the truth of the matter,” Mushwana said.
