Internet Lies

Hoax is the name given to false information received by e-mail, social networking sites and other websites in general, whose content —in addition to the well-known "chain mail"—consists of emotional or religious appeals, alleged charity campaigns, humanitarian and rescue movements, or even fake internet virus warnings of a non-existent threat (Source: Wikipedia).

Hoax means imposture or fraud.

The Roman clergy have a group of "experts" in producing hoaxes, that is, in spreading lies and fantasies on the internet, trying to tarnish the image of those who oppose their interests.

What’s sad is that many believe in the horrible things that are spread by hoaxes. Take a look at the following two examples:

1st LIE: EX-BISHOP SERGIO VON HELDER HOAX

An excellent example of a "Catholic hoax" is the one about former Bishop Sergio Von Helder.
This internet rumor asks if it’s true that the pastor who kicked the image of Aparecida do Norte had an accident and had his leg amputated.

This rumor was created to convince people that the image of Aparecida punished its aggressor. It was invented and spread by the Roman clergy as if it were true.

But, did you know that this rumor started because of a story that was published by a Catholic magazine?
The man responsible for the publication, a monk from a monastery in Rio de Janeiro, admitted to lying.

"Everyone always asks us the same question, and Catholics say that if the Universal Church didn’t deny it, then it must be true," said the monk.

But the one who started the rumor was the Catholic Church!

A few years ago, a widely circulated magazine published an article on the subject. Here's an excerpt:

The monk, Sir Stephen Bettencourt, who published the article in his magazine, admits that he did not confirm the story with Von Helder. "I read about it on a website and decided to publish it, therefore, it was not Von Helder that actually told me what happened. However, until now, the Universal Church has not made any comments denying what was written in the article."

And that’s not it: the rumor gained even more momentum when a Catholic TV program, which is part of the same media outlet as the monk’s magazine, broadcast the story as if it had actually occurred.

ANSWER:

Ex-Bishop Sergio Von Helder is no longer part of the ministry of the UCKG because of a matter of faith. He was in perfect health, at least while he was with us. He is now self-employed, lives in the U.S. and NEVER HAD HIS LEG AMPUTATED.

Do you see how the CATHOLIC CLERGY, along with others, CREATED A HOAX TO REVIVE THE CREDIBILITY of an image they believe in?

In the same way, IN ORDER TO CONTINUE FOOLING THE UNWARY, from time to time, THEY CREATE NEW LIES ABOUT ME.

Take a look at the one below.

2nd LIE: THE MANSION HOAX

I insist on publishing the full story for anyone interested in knowing the details of this rumor.

DO YOU KNOW WHO BOUGHT THIS HOUSE? Keep reading and you'll understand...

The name of this mansion is Villa Castillo—Caribbean and it was sold at an auction by Sotheby's for €42,578,200.00.

Let's take a look:

ANSWER:

The rumor that has circulated on the internet says that this is "Bishop Edir Macedo’s home in the Caribbean."
To help you think, I’m going to ask you the following questions:

1 - Why don’t they show where my name appears on the property records?
Simply because it is not there. Anyone can get pictures of mansions, castles and idyllic islands from the internet and say I bought them.
If I had really bought the mansion above, don’t you think every media outlet would be broadcasting the story? Every TV station, radio station, newspaper, magazine and website that hates us would have made this their top story.

2 - Why don’t they do it?
Because they don’t have any evidence to prove it. This is nothing more than a cowardly defamation campaign.

3 - But, after all, why would they be interested in my alleged billion dollar purchases?
There is only one reason: To cause the members of the UCKG to doubt my character as a servant of God.

FINAL NOTE:

Many of those who I have fought with all of my strength, so that they may come to know the truth, might not fully know it yet because of my limited communication resources. But everyone knows my life very well.

The book "The Bishop" talks about my life in detail. Only one thing has changed. When it was written, I had an apartment. Today, because of a vow I made with God, I no longer own that apartment.

Those who believe these words, amen.
Those who do not believe can be sure that I will not force you to do so.
