Controversial cleric Apostle Johnson Suleman has publicly defended Pastor Chris Oyakhilome following a viral video that showed the Christ Embassy leader praying for the simultaneous healing of ten individuals during a global broadcast.
The video, excerpted from a March 2025 "Healing Streams" service, shows Pastor Chris commanding people on stretchers from various countries to rise and walk, which they do amid celebratory applause. The clip has sparked intense online debate, with many questioning its authenticity.
Suleman’s Defense: Miracles Transcend Human Logic
In his response, Apostle Suleman, General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries International, firmly asserted the miracles were genuine. He argued that the infrastructure of Christian faith itself operates beyond conventional logic.
"Not every miracle of God must make sense to you," Suleman stated. "Our entire faith is not built on logic or common sense... So how do you expect our manifestations to make sense?"
He emphasized that Pastor Chris has a long-established healing ministry and that convincing skeptics is ultimately the work of divine intervention, not human persuasion. "You cannot convince anybody about a miracle unless it happens to them," he added.
Addressing Skeptics and "Testing" Faith
The apostle directly addressed critics who challenge pastors to perform miracles in hospitals as proof. He cited biblical precedent, noting that even Jesus could not perform miracles in an atmosphere of unbelief.
"That’s not how miracle happens," Suleman said. "The platform for that kind of statement is unbelief. We are not here to display."
His comments highlight a recurring tension in modern religious discourse between faith-based claims and public skepticism, particularly when miraculous events are broadcast to a global online audience. The defense frames the controversy not as a matter of evidence, but as a fundamental difference in the perception of how divine power operates.
