| [GhanaNews.com] Walking on water is not easy. Not too many people have the ability. Let’s see, there’s Jesus, and well, that’s about it. Unfortunately for one pastor on the West Coast of Africa, his attempt to become the second man to make this impossible feat a reality cost him his life. Pastor Franck Kabele, 35, told his congregation that he was capable of reenacting the very miracles of Jesus Christ. He decided to make it clear through way of demonstration on Gabon’s beach in the capital city of Libreville. Referencing Matthew 14:22-33, Kabele said that he received a revelation which told him that with enough faith he could achieve what Jesus was able to. According to an eyewitness, Kabele took his congregation out to the beach. He told them that he would cross the Kombo estuary by foot, which is normally a 20 minute boat ride. Here mate, hold my Bohlingers and watch THIS ! |

| #2 Jesus walked on water for one reason according to the Christian faith. To show people that he was the Son of God which set him apart from the rest of the human race. That with that authority he had power over nature that no one else had. And he did so in front of only a handful of people. If anyone else did it, such as the preachers, such a spectacle would divert attention from Christ and put the preacher on the same level, which is a no no. |
