A South Africa church is currently making rounds online
after its unconventional way of baptizing its faithful with their favorite alcoholic drink instead of
water hit the net.
52-year-old Bishop Tsietsi Makiti, who is the founder of the
church known as Gabola and the brain behind the idea says that the congregants
at the Church have also been given a go-ahead to drink alcohol during church
services.
According to online reports, Bishop Makiti’s church has
witnessed its membership rocket to over 500 members in just under two months
due to the beer baptization.
He says he was motivated by the scriptures narrating how
Jesus changed water to wine.
He added;
People who drink and get baptized by beer are happy and
peaceful. This means they are living in the shadow of God.
The church accommodates people who are not welcome at other
churches.
Its name ‘Gabola’ is the Tswana word for drinking. There is
only one branch at the moment but the Bishop is looking forward to expanding it
further.
South Africa is overdue for a string revivals.
They need at least, a hundred men like Daddy Freeze to wake millions of "sheeples" from spiritual coma.
