A dramatic church service has gone viral after a pastor’s intense sermon and unusual actions stirred both admiration and controversy online.
The unidentified minister was seen passionately preaching to his congregation, sweat streaming down his face as he declared, “I release the consuming power of the Holy Spirit in this house tonight! Every chain, every yoke, catch fire!”
The white-painted church, glowing brightly under several lights, created an almost theatrical setting for the powerful scene.
However, what caught the attention of many on social media was not just the sermon’s intensity—but the pastor’s actions and attire.
In the viral footage, the preacher could be seen standing on the backs of two women lying flat on the floor, their heads bowed in apparent submission.
The women, dressed modestly in skirts—one green, the other maroon—and white tops, remained still as the pastor preached over them.
Viewers online were divided. While some defended the act as a symbolic demonstration of spiritual authority and deliverance, others criticized it as disrespectful and unbiblical.
A number of netizens also pointed out the pastor’s choice of shoes, which they described as “feminine,” sparking humorous and critical comments alike.
“This isn’t the gospel—this is performance,” one user wrote, while another countered, “The anointing moves in mysterious ways.”
The video continues to trend, igniting conversations about modern-day church practices and the boundaries of spiritual expression.
