A church in South
Africa, named Gabola Church is making waves on social media for using members’
favourite alcoholic drnks to baptize them instead of water. The founder
of the church, 52-year-old Bishop Tsietsi Makiti, also encouraged his
church members to drink alcohol during church services.
Due to the beer baptism, Bishop Makiti’s church has
witnessed its membership rocket to over 500 members in just under two months.
According to him, he was motivated by the scriptures
narrating how Jesus changed water to wine.
He said, “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 welcomed at other churches.
Its name ‘Gabola’ is the Tswana word for drinking.
