Pastor Baruti Kasongo (also known as Léonard Barutti Kasongo) is the pastor of Baruti Tabernacle, a large message church in the city of Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
False report of a miraculous healing
We received the following report on Facebook from someone referring to themselves as Christian Ngoy:
- In a campaign of evangelization in Kinshasa in August 2016, a blind Protestant bishop was not ashamed of the crowd, he came to seek healing from JESUS , the great doctor. Reverend BARUTI touched his eyes. After a short prayer, his eyes were open and he saw. I am an eyewitness because I was personally présent!
We asked for the name of the Bishop so we could follow up and determine whether there was actually a healing that occured. Certainly, if there was an acutally healing by a blind man receiving his sight, and a non-message Bishop, this would be monumental news.
Not surprisingly, no information regarding the name was forthcoming so we have come to the conclusion that the report was fake. We are prepared to report the healing of this Bishop as and when we can have a conversation with him to determine that, in fact, he was blind and has been healed.
Other reasons to believe Pastor Baruti is a fraud
What kind of Christian would name a church after himself? Need we say more?
This is narcissism to the extreme.
