Pastor TB Joshua has claimed in a video that he exorcised ‘homosexual demon’ in a self-styled businessman who joined his congregation during one of his church deliverance services.
The Synagogue Church Of All Nations had aired on its online television, Emmanuel TV, a video of its founder, Pastor Joshua casting out ‘homosexual demon’ in a businessman(both pictured) who said he was possessed by the ‘evil spirit’ after bathing in a hotel swimming pool in Kenya.
In the video, the businessman who simply identified himself as Tegus said he caught the demon when he broke up with his girlfriend and started to download gay porn.
Before carrying out the exorcism, the controversial pastor threw his arms at the ‘possessed man’, and yelled at him: ‘Turn’.
Pastor Joshua proceeded to do this again before Tegus tries to escape. Grabbing him tightly by the wrist, the priest orders the demon: ‘Turn for Jesus Christ.’
The dramatic video opens with a calm interview between the priest and the smartly dressed businessman.
When asked who is inside him, Tegus quietly says that it is his ‘friend’ and that he has many ‘friends’ inside him.
Pastor Joshua calmly asked for some names and in response Tegus says: ‘I made him gay’
Starting to build up the tension for the packed congregation, the priests asks: ‘What have you been pushing him to do against his will?’
Tegus tells Pastor Joshua how the supposed demon made him love men instead of loving women and that he loves men
Lowering his voice a few tones, the Pastor Joshua started to interrogate the man, questioning how the demon entered his body.
The businessman informed him that he caught the demon from swimming in a hotel pool.
Continuing to maintain his audience’s attention, the priest lambasted Tegus, calling him ‘an unclean spirit.’
He became harsher in his tone, ordering Tegus to come closer. Firmly held by two men in matching red jumpers, Tedus is exorcised by the priest, who raises his hands near to the frightened man.
Shouting the words ‘Turn for Jesus Christ’, the priest grabs him tightly by his wrist, yanking down on Tegus’ arm
Attempting to run away, the priest yelled at him to come here and he is prevented from escaping by two of the red shirted assistants.
The priest turns, flashing his arms and ordering the man to go, causing Tegus to collapse to the ground.
A faint ripple of applause can be heard from the silent congregation.
Walking around in a disoriented manner, the man is asked how he is. Quietly he tells the priest that he is fine.
Asked what he said earlier, Tegus insists he said nothing.
Speaking in a crudely edited interview afterwards, Tegus recalls how he got the demon from swimming.
‘After swimming, I went back to my room in the night to sleep and I had a dream. I dreamt where I saw myself swimming in the same pool and when I woke up, I felt something had entered me.’
‘I started having passion for men and going closer to my closer men. Before my journey, I had a fiancee.I had to ask her to quit the relationship because I had no passion for anymore – no more affections for her.’
Tegus insists at the end that he has had ‘total deliverance’ and now feels a ‘passion for the opposite sex.’
