TESTING THE FAITH
Evangelist drowns trying to walk on water
Pastor reportedly told congregation he could repeat miracle of Jesus
An evangelist who tried replicating Jesus' miracle of walking on water
has reportedly drowned off the western coast of Africa.
Pastor Franck Kabele, 35, told his congregation he could repeat the
biblical miracle, and he attempted it from a beach in Gabon's capital of
Libreville.
"He told churchgoers he'd had a revelation that if he had enough faith,
he could walk on water like Jesus," an eyewitness told the Glasgow Daily
Record.
"He took his congregation to the beach saying he would walk across the
Komo estuary, which takes 20 minutes by boat. He walked into the water,
which soon passed over his head and he never came back."
The New Testament records the story of Jesus walking on the Sea of
Galilee as he approached his disciples in a boat.
"And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on
the sea." (Matthew 14:25

As WND reported in April
<http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=49591> , a researcher at
Florida State University believes he has a natural explanation for the
account of Jesus' miraculous walk on the surface of water – ice.
Professor of Oceanography Doron Nof and the co-authors of his study
theorize that a rare combination of optimal water and atmospheric
conditions resulted in a unique, localized freezing phenomenon called
"springs ice," according to Physorg.com <http://www.physorg.com/> ,
