The drowning part was God's revenge for all those Nigerian emails.

[Revolting cat!]

I hate when that happens!

[Gamecock]

Is this the Nigerian version of Lark News?

[Revolting cat!]

There is a Kenyan who (it’s been reported. Daily) can do it. You might even know his name.

[Red_Devil 232]

I think the first step would have told him it was not going to work.

Christians do not delude themselves into thinking they can do what Jesus does.

[Viennacon]

Poor guy, prayers to his family. Honestly Nigerian Christianity is some of the most fervent I have ever seen. Their live televangelist programming is nuts. They do these crazy exorcisms live! You can love Jesus and yet still understand you can’t walk on water.

[Keeper of the Turf]

That’s some beach. Two steps and you’re completely submerged?

[Dagnabitt]

At least we know he’s not a witch.

[Gamecock]

Within seconds of opening the door <realization things aren't going as planned>

[Gen.Blather]

You’d think that if you heard a voice telling you to do it you’d at least try it by yourself to verify it works. I know every time a voice tells me to buy an assault rifle I say, “Wait a minute. Who are you that you don’t know I already have one?” And it says, “Oh, sorry. Wrong head. Go back to sleep.”

He should have tried moving a mountain first.

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. Sadly by the second step into the water Kabele found himself completely submerged. He never returned.

He was completely submerged after only two steps? Was his faith lacking? Did he not read Joel Osteen's latest book?

[Nifster]

the arrogance of man

[plain talk]

“Sometimes i think that preacher man would like to do a little walking too ...”

This is an incredible story of arrogance and stupidity.

[Jack Hydrazine]

White men can’t jump.

The corollary has been proven.

[Maceman]

Too bad he didn't watch this video first. He would have learned how to walk on water, and that it isn't that hard.

Secret of magic trick of walking on water revealed

[bramps]

Just a thought that maybe the plan was to immediately duck under the water, seemingly drown, swim underwater a safe distance where you won’t be seen surfacing, and then reappear in say, 3 days?

Nigerian Pastor Tries to Walk on Water Like Jesus, Then Drowns in Front of His Congregation

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wow. Is this not a coincidence, or what?

I just got an email from his widow needing assistance in moving $125,000 USD out of that country. All I need do is email her back my bank info.

[Secret Agent Man]

do not test God.

there was no reason for these guys to do these miracles. there were purposes for the biblical miracles. God does miracles for His reasons, and His purposes, not just for a show.

if you look for miracles anyway, you will see many around you every day. how about your pet recovering from an illness? how about another day everyone in the house gets up, and all go to sleep at the end of the day? how about driving a couple hundred miles in your car in a day and getting home safely without any incidents? being able to do what you want to do and getting it done, without a calamity or catastrophe occurring?

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Did they recover his body? Maybe a croc got him.
