Very controversial South African pastor, Pastor Ruffus Phala,who was on the news sometime ago for giving his church members detol to drink, has come out to give a defensive speech as to why he feed his church members with Jik bleach during last week Sunday service.
Pastor Ruffus Phala,who is the general overseer of Ark Centre Ministry in Makgodu Village, Limpopo, South Africa, told Daily Sun that her converted the Jik into the blood of Jesus and that what his members were drinking wasn’t Jik but the blood Jesus Christ
Yes, it was Jik before I made the declaration. But after I declared it to be the blood of Jesus Christ it means it’s no longer Jik so it won’t harm anyone who consumes it. he said
He said while defending his actions that what he did was similar to what happened in the Bible, where Jesus gave his servants’ wine to drink but had said to them “this is my blood”.
Limpopo police spokesman Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe said that no complaints has been lodged against the pastor from the victims, urging any affected person to come forward and open a case so the police could investigate.
