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)
