Night Gospel theatrics upsetting some familiar bits of wisdom

SOME pastimes on late-night radio shows can turn out to be serious lifetime affairs, based on some recent experiences on a talk show at night, focusing on a preacher named Pastor Dominic.

He has a penchant for what literalists may term as bombastic presentation, not making out arguments but charged exhortation and then moving into action at times.

It is perception, the ability to see the conditions of those who phone in, thus being able to tell their whereabouts or problem that sells.

Were that people close to some elements in law enforcement, who often talk about the disruptive effects of witch-fingering by going to a medicine man when one falls sick and it resists medication, they would be taxed to stay with their views.

This was not a case of probability that there is a neighbour who wishes to harm the person, business or say a child, but one’s mother who is sick, and the fellow has used up his savings to conduct treatment, to no avail.

As in all good theater, the story is an incomprehensible facet of life but, as they say, all's well that ends well. 

A fellow has phoned the pastor on account of his business activity having failed and half a dozen transportation business and personal vehicles grounded, and the pastor could even finger this or that item on the yard, as if he was there.

So after explaining his situation a bit rapidly, that he was down and out, his wife had left him and was caring for his children and sick mother, the proper story now began.

The pastor directed his attention to where it was most unexpected, on the mother, affirming that the mother knows why her son’s businesses had collapsed.

This is where the theatrical part came from, and it was a sort of bullet scenario that did not involve too many words, except the ‘parting shot’ of the usual misgivings that such consultation ruins families as they are set upon one against another.

The pastor told the caller that the mother knows precisely why the businesses fail, adding that the old lady ought to be called from her room to explain it. She flatly denied it.

Thus, in her own words, she was unaware of what was causing the businesses to fail, not exactly in the know that this was a different kind of encounter.

It was not a counselling session but a rat trap, and the funny thing is that the trap was not laid by the pastor but by the lady, orchestrating her downfall, that is, just to provide a happy ending to the story. Happy for the listeners, to wit.

To be certain, it was not exactly all her fault, as she had been put into witching motions by her mother against her will as a young girl, but as a mother has an influence on her daughter unless there is an unexpected intervention from somewhere, she was fully drawn into their web and habits.

So after her son was now a successful businessman by routine standards, with half a dozen vehicles for his activities, the witching caught up with this end, as its habit is destruction, not success for those targeted. A spider’s web or silk was around the successful fellow.

The method has two ends related in intention, one a dynamic of business collapse and another, the mother failing sick with partial paralysis on the leg and arm, thus the fellow using whatever he still had to treat his mother.

These two strands would naturally converge to ruin the fellow and when he was down and out, and then caught sight of the radio channel, decided to consult, and the result was well beyond his wildest imagination.

Often we think of ill-wishers as neighbours and at times even relatives but hardly do we put the mother in front as the pivotal suspect…

That is what the pastor saw and told the fellow to ask the mother to come over for a candid talk with the pastor, which she obliged but a note of defiance was written in her first remarks.

Total denial of any knowledge of why the fellow was failing, and rapid accusation of fomenting misunderstanding, until the lynchpin came, prepared not by either the pastor or some precautions of the young man.

It was a far simpler matter of picking up a routine use object like a plate and destroying it.

As the woman was accusing the pastor of fomenting discord, the younger fellow was bent on having the matter resolved, tired of losing his businesses and wife, and is told the mother knows all that is happening.

He fetched a plate under her bed, put water in a glass, and the pastor blessed it by pouring it on the plate. It rubbed out the dark inscriptions, occult energy ruining his business.

That inscription was intimately linked with the mother’s psychic life, so as the water was poured on it, the occult force was dissolved and the mother’s life energy with it.

As the pastor had predicted, once the water destroyed those inscriptions she would die.

All they needed to do was to rush her to the hospital for breathing problems and heart attack, and arrange the burial while the pastor cut the phone link to pick up other callers!
