Pastor Alph Lukau who ‘resurrected’ a man in viral video grants first interview, says ‘everything we do is consistent with scriptures’

Pastor Alph Lukau of Alleluia Ministries who appeared in the viral video that shows him ‘resurrecting’ a man who was in a coffin has explained the incident saying the man was already alive when he arrived at the church.  

Speaking to Gauteng broadcaster Power FM’s Power Drive host Thabiso Tema, Pastor Lukau said he was busy with a sermon on Sunday when he was interrupted and told that a person in a coffin had been brought to the church.  

In his words, “before entering the premises of the church, the coffin began to shake, meaning the person was alive,” Lukau explained.

When asked by the host why the man had been brought to the church in the first place, Lukau said: “I am not sure if I can make a statement that he was brought to me. We are the house of God and I’m just a pastor serving in the house of the Lord. I think that they brought the person to church because they believed that God had the ability to resurrect the person. but still our brother was a live even before brought to church and we really apologize for not telling the truth in the first place”
