The Faith Healer's Favorite Scam

The Faith Healer's Favorite Scam

Can pastors lift people out of wheelchairs and heal the disabled? Can preachers and evangelists heal those who are crippled? Or is the rise and walk miracle the faith healers biggest scam? If this popular trick isn’t an amazing miracle then what’s really happening? If it’s not a miraculous healing then how these people rising out of wheelchairs and running around the church? In this video we’ll analyze footage from Benny Hinn, Billy Burke, Reinhard Bonnke, John Mellor, W.V. Grant, Jack Coe, and other faith healing preachers through a scientific lens. We’ll explore their healing revivals and get a bigger picture to see what happens when the disabled people are followed up with afterwards. And we’ll determine once and for all if the Rise and Walk miracle is truly miraculous or one giant con.

    People need religion because they can’t think or fend for themselves. They need an imaginary friend to manage their lives. Religious leaders know this and "the ends justifies the means" and they effectively utilise it to gain power over people.

    If they were HEALED COMPLETELY BY GOD, wouldn’t they stand and walk like normal? If they were RESTORED BY GOD, it would be IMMEDIATE.

    This is at the top of the list of vile practices.

  5. @lindadennis7435 on May 31, 2025 at 9:55 pm

    That’s religion for you. Scamming for money. You believe in this crap just like you believe Trump is making America great again.
    There are notable healers..nothing to do with religion. It has to do with realigning the body’s energy. Hundreds of people have improved illnesses.

    These people are despicable using Gods holy word to earn a profit and they better repent because Gods judgement is gonna be worse on them because they are turning so many people toward hell even you the creator of this video has been driven away due to people such as these and I am praying for you sir I hope to see you in heaven all of you not just the YouTuber here but all the viewers who watch this, for in fact this is not Christianity it is this bull squash made up “word of faith” cult that’s the key word “word of faith” NOT the word of God! Stay away from any church that claims word of faith they twist the Bible to fill their pockets and it is absolutely heretical but God will prevail! I love all of you, God bless

    Disgusting..

  9. @eilissmith8591 on May 31, 2025 at 9:58 pm

    I’m a Christian but I’m disgusted with this. People like Benny Hinn are a disgrace.

  10. @jamesrobinson8945 on May 31, 2025 at 9:58 pm

    When Jesus was here on earth he did many miracles but he never asked for money.

  11. @james-np7fj on May 31, 2025 at 10:00 pm

    All religion is fake and a money scam

  12. @maryanngarcia3080 on May 31, 2025 at 10:00 pm

    How could these people be so bloody stupid?

  13. @phuabtsabchannel202 on May 31, 2025 at 10:06 pm

    Some are healed by psychological impact which is a temporary result. Some are healed by physical exertion which is a temporal result. Some are healed by the hand of God which will longer but not permanently because of old age and decay. There could be a few that are resulting by placebo effect which you had used to pick to prove your points but there are others that are healed by the power of God which you tend to hide. Make sure you are fair without bias to present your points from both sides of the isle.

    When I was 15 years old, my mom told me to tithing $5k usd to a pastor. Then, I bought a weed than give my bucks to a scammer.

    I need my foot healed these guys heal it would let you know. They have never healed nothing I have wanted to be healed a long time.

  20. @DominicNyaguyo-tv4sy on May 31, 2025 at 10:14 pm

    Mmmm we should fear God.

  21. @enki354 on May 31, 2025 at 10:15 pm

    It never fails to astound me how gullible people are!

  22. @michaelenglish839 on May 31, 2025 at 10:16 pm

    A friend of mine recently told me how her pastor healed her, and then proceeded to recount the classic "restored short leg" scam. As a Christian, I struggled with how to handle this. I asked how long she has had back pain and she said many years. I asked if she had ever been to the doctor and she said she has been to many, including specialists. I asked if she had ever had MRI, CT or X-ray scans and she said yes all of them. I asked, "So did all those doctors and tests just miss the fact that one leg was shorter than the other, and your spine misaligned?" She said, "I guess so".

  23. @B.1.ack_r.o.s.e on May 31, 2025 at 10:18 pm

    As a Christian, it worries me that other Christians fall for this almost all the time. I do still believe in healing through Christ but sometimes you can tell whats real and whats fake. I hope people will start to open their eyes so that they arent led to their Damnation

  24. @clintonjones5658 on May 31, 2025 at 10:19 pm

    Had a curved spine healed. No other explanation it was visibly curved and is straight.

  25. @rgarlinyc on May 31, 2025 at 10:21 pm

    Some of the most dishonest, deluded, willfully ignorant people on the planet? Christians.

  26. @DickyMorin on May 31, 2025 at 10:24 pm

    Wouldn’t it be something as the faith healer put his hands on the head of the girl with cotton candy colored hair, she suddenly jumped out of the wheelchair and her hair was its natural color! Miracle! Call Revlon!

  27. @DominicNyaguyo-tv4sy on May 31, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    Bushiri is one of these people.

  28. @JohnKerr-bq3vo on May 31, 2025 at 10:26 pm

    americans are the sick ones…

  29. @Akshay13134 on May 31, 2025 at 10:30 pm

    This same kind of miracles why are they not doing for pope he is sitting in wheel chair just like these people if Jesus can heal them why not pope

  30. @Youdoyouboo-80 on May 31, 2025 at 10:30 pm

    It’s so despicable to see these charlatans take advantage of truly desperate people! Just deplorable! Makes me sick..

  31. @chaplainsoffice6907 on May 31, 2025 at 10:32 pm

    All healings of Jesus took place right away, not the next morning.

  32. @fakebobbyhill296 on May 31, 2025 at 10:32 pm

    If you understand the placebo effect, and you claim to be a faith healer and take people’s money, then yeah… you’re a scam artist.

  33. @NowhSpeedy-lv4sc on May 31, 2025 at 10:32 pm

    Muslims are taught in the quran by their prophet Mohammed to hate and terminate Jews ( October 7 attack ). and Christians, ( September 11 attack ) and other no religions, even gays, Surah 9:29 Muslims shouldn’t be allowed to have a government in any country because of their hate beliefs. Their belief is to physically terminate gays and anyone who leaves Islamic religion. Islam is satanic, you need to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and God, And you and nation will have true peace. Also their prophet Mohammed is a child molester. he has sex with a 9 year old girl and he and his followers thought it was ok, very sick people.,

  34. @tedlee594 on May 31, 2025 at 10:32 pm

    If these gentlemen are from God, there would be no reasons for hospitals or St. JUDE,

  35. @cradleofrelaxation6473 on May 31, 2025 at 10:33 pm

    This video is GOATed!!
    Thanks for sharing and I’ll like to read the James Randy book.
    I’ve watched videos about him though.

  36. @scott_richardson on May 31, 2025 at 10:34 pm

    My dad’s “healing” pastor died of cancer. And my dad told me he couldn’t save himself. Go figure.

  37. @jamilsalih9724 on May 31, 2025 at 10:34 pm

    If the Christians are right these " faith healers " will have some splaining to do when they stand before God for being false teachers.

  38. @asphalthedgehog6580 on May 31, 2025 at 10:38 pm

    The main cause this kind of ‘healing’ exists: people believe in miracles.

    But… miracles did and do not happen. It’s that easy.

  39. @jamesritch5245 on May 31, 2025 at 10:39 pm

    Who in the hell has to rent a wheelchair at a church? This is despicable and what gives Christianity a bad rap

  40. @TheBobbybbc on May 31, 2025 at 10:40 pm

    People actually fall for this stuff?

  41. @stephenwilkinson949 on May 31, 2025 at 10:41 pm
