Controversy

Carlos Oliveira has encountered scrutiny by religious skeptics, Catholic bishops, and priests for his different independent approach to deliverance ministry and exorcism. He does not follow religious censorship, the Catholic religion, dogma, or the Catholic exorcist procedures including: prayer recitals (ex. "Hail Mary," and the "Athanasian Creed") along with prayers to saints as enumerated in the exorcism rituals according to traditional Catholicism.

Archbishop Isaac Kramer made the statement: "When you perform an exorcism, it involves several prayers. It involves commanding the demons. It involves holy water. It involves other things… that you just cannot do through a computer screen."[10] Contrary to some opinions, this does NOT contradict any Bible passages because while there is truth in the fact that the Catholic Church does not hold a monopoly on exorcisms, an exorcism by a different spirit other than the one prescribed by the Church, COULD potentially risk doing more harm than good even if the minister CLAIMS to cast out demons in the name of Jesus or St. Paul. This iC seen in Acts 19:15, where a group of Jewish chief priests, whom without proper foreknowledge, tried to cast out a demon.

"But some itinerant Jewish exorcists too tried pronouncing the name of the Lord Jesus over people who were possessed by evil spirits; they used to say, 'I adjure you by the Jesus whose spokesman is Paul.'

14 Among those who did this were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest.

15 The evil spirit replied, 'Jesus I recognise, and Paul I know, but who are you?'

16 and the man with the evil spirit hurled himself at them and overpowered first one and then another, and handled them so violently that they fled from that house stripped of clothing and badly mauled."

Throughout his ministry, he is known to run seemingly original campaigns such as: "Consuming Fire Campaign,"[11] "Mobile Prayer Unit"[12] and "Adopt Your City."[13] Carlos Oliveira's ministries have reached Evangelists such as Fernando Perez[14] who said: "As a deliverance minister myself I am deeply blessed by the Ministry of my dear friend Brother Carlos Oliveira, The fruit of his ministry has blessed people all over the world and that is very inspiring. Matthew 7:16[15] "You shall know them by their fruits" . We need more Man of God like brother Carlos Oliveira to preach the uncompromising gospel of the Kingdom of God to set the captives free. Luke 11:20[16] But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you." [17] Carlos Oliveira's deliverance ministry continues to grow today with many videos, praise reports, and testimonies.[18]
