Line 1: − '''Peter Popoff''' (born 1946) is a [[German]]-born U.S [[evangelist]] who has spent most of his adult life treating physical ailments through the use of [[faith healing]]. Reverend Popoff has routinely and accurately stated the home addresses and specific illnesses of his audience members, a feat attributed to divine revelation and [[God]] given ability. Reverend Popoff's shows have also featured audience members who were brought on stage in [[wheelchair]]s and who have subsequently risen dramatically to walk without support. + − − His ministry is based in Upland, [[California]], and is funded through donations. A widely popular minster in the 1980s, he was declared [[bankrupt]] in 1987 after [[James Randi]], for a segment on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, obtained proof that Popoff's wife, Elizabeth, was transmitting names and details of the lives of people in the audience to Popoff. Popoff would then claim he received the names directly from The Holy Spirit.<ref>The Investigation of Peter Popoff http://www.bible.ca/tongues-popoff-39-17Mhz.htm</ref> − − Recently, he has returned to national [[television]], broadcasting his crusade services in which he claims to conduct [[miracle]]s by laying his hands. Currently, Reverend Popoff is also known for sending packets of Miracle Spring Water to his viewers. The water is supposedly a solution to physical and financial problems. − − == References == − − <references/> − − [[category:evangelicals]]
