Pastor saved and arrested after attempts to resurrect the dead go wrong

A pastor in Ethiopia tried to repeat the story of Lazarus trying to lift the body that had been in the grave for two days. But he escaped the crowd's attack as the attempt to raise the body went awry.

Getayawukal Ayele claims to be a prophet. He apparently visited a family who was mourning the loss of their loved one, Belay Biftu, who died as a result of a motorcycle accident that occurred Monday in the Limu district, in the Wollega region of western Ethiopia.

. emerging in social media, already two days have pbaded since Belay was buried.

Getayawkal, whose name means "God knows," approached the family who was crying Belay to convince him that he could resurrect him from the dead, just like Lazarus who was raised from the dead by Jesus after four days – a story that we find in John 11's Gospel chapter in bile.

The family, apparently apparently of Protestant belief, was coaxed and accepted the prophet's proposal.

Then the pastor led the family to the cemetery of the Full Gospel Church where Belay was buried and ordered that the grave be dug, perhaps imitating the words of Jesus Christ: "Take away the stone . "

Dinsa Debela who w Orks for the church and was nearby was alarmed by the voice "Belay will resurrect the dead" as reported by the Amharic Service of the BBC. When he noticed what was happening, he expressed his opposition by saying that what they did violated the practice of the Church.

He could not stop and had to flee the area while the people who were digging the grave were trying to attack him.

As the coffin is discovered from the grave, Getayawukal descended to the shrine, opened the casket and began shouting "Belay tenese!" (Belay getting up!)

Frustrated, apparently, that nothing happened, he lied about the corpse and kept shouting "Belay tenese", as seen in the video above that has been widely shared in social media.

As the prophet obtains no answer from the corpse, he comes out of the grave and declares "there"

It is at that time that people who were looking at it all quietly (which is unusual for Ethiopians) and the family became angry and began to attack the prophet, according to Dinsa Debela, a witness quoted by the BBC Amharic, so the police had to intervene to save the "prophet" of the Crowd attack but he was arrested later.

Last month, a pastor was devoured by a giant crocodile while he was trying to baptize his worshipers on the shores of Lake Abbaya.
