Why do people easily believe false prophet?

Happy Saturday readers how did your day go? I would like to know if you don't mind at all. It's been a long day and I feel like some effort isn't worth it when we know the true solution to it, why still trying to do it the same way that we do it, that's when I realize that we might know the solution but it's not always in our power to do it, the person in charge should be the ones that do or he should permit us to do it, in case you were wondering what I am talking about, it's the bathroom, haha.

Today I will be writing about why people believe false news or perhaps false prophets, I believe that is the title. In Africa and most especially Nigeria, the churches that we have here are x10 more than factories that can provide jobs, you will see a church will buy a huge land that was owned by some industry before, they will demolish the industry and build a very big church in it and people will come and be praying for jobs.

Africa has so many pastors and inside many fake pastors are posing as real because they will make you believe that they are among the true pastors, though some of these pastors do evil things behind and when they are caught, the members that have been soaked and brainwash by the pastor will come out and be backing the pastor up, some will even go to the extent of insulting others that call their pastor false, yes I said it, religion is indeed the worst virus that has affected Africa.

I know must be wondering how these fake pastors usually get members, well it's very simple, I said simple and not easy, you just have to play your cards right and not let yourself screw it up because once it happened, well, it is what it is, without taking much of your time, let's dive right into it.

False prophets usually catch members with fake visions, for example, they will tell you about yourself, the place you were born, and how you grow up, this one is hard to resist cause you will be so convinced that your only option will be to believe the false pastor, recently @Danika wrote an article about how a friend that his mom trusted and tells everything about in their place of work turned against her and told the retired boss that his mother is a bad person that always gossips with her with others.

You won't blame the retired boss because the lady must have told her some things that only his mom and the retired boss know and that will make her believe, that's how they say the false vision too, they will tell you something that only you and just a person know about and the person is not even in the state as you again, they will tell you the kind of food you like eating, how you like your coffee, the routine you normally and so on.

There was something I heard about a popular pastor in my country some time ago and the person that said it, know him very well because he's into ministry too, let me use the name Adam as the pastor name, according to the man, the pastor was invited for a program at a big church in one of the state, so they lodged in the hotel for his staying till the end of the program.

The first day, of the program, went well, there were prophecies and you will see the mover of God around, the pastor that came to preach can see the vision and he saw a lot of vision to some people, the church was so blessed, so the next day the organized visited the pastor in his hotel room, I don't know if he badges in or knot.

When they got into his hotel room, they opened the door and saw papers of people names of people and the organizers was surprised when they saw the papers with people's names and details about them, according to the man, the pastor will send someone to start asking the members some questions about their selves with code (without suspicion).

Though people do fall for the false visions, the women are the ones who usually fall victim to them, ones they hear about prophecy and vision of what happened some years back, automatically they will believe the pastor and say that indeed he was sent from God, there's nothing you will tell the women that will make them believe the pastor is fake, they will be convincing you to join the ministry of the pastor.

I would have like to write more, but unfortunately, I will need to end it here and hope to continue it sometime in the future, cause I don't want to write 24 minutes read, haha.
