A preacher in a church tested the faith of his congregants by feigning there was an attack in the auditorium and taking to his heels.

A viral video making rounds on various social media platforms sees a preacher who was delivering a sermon take to his heels on the podium as if there was a bomb attack happening.

Congregants who were seated in their chairs then started running helter skelter for cover with a near stampede occurring before the preacher shouted it was a game.
