A preacher convinced his congregation to drink petrol after claiming he’d turned it into pineapple juice.
Pastor Lesego Daniel, whose high-energy services attract hundreds of worshippers to his Rabboni Centre Ministry in South Africa, performed the ‘miracle’ by pouring petrol into a bucket and dropping a match inside, causing it to set alight.

And he then told the congregation in Garankuwa, near Pretoria, that the petrol had been transformed into pineapple juice – and asked communicants to come up and take a drink.
‘I want to prove to you, with the flames that will burn here, that it shows what can be achieved if you have faith,’ he told worshippers.

‘What you see, you have to believe it.’
The clip shows men and women approach the charismatic pastor in a bizarre, almost trance-like state, wresting the bottle out of each other’s hands as they fight for a sip of the petrol.
This is not the first time Pastor Daniel has made headlines.
In January, the controversial preacher persuaded his followers to eat grass, claiming that those with faith could survive on whatever they chose.
