Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>After spending the last few months speaking on his newfound relationship with God, a video of South African rapper Cassper Nyovest being baptised in a swimming pool has set tongues wagging on social media.<\/p>\n

Towards the end of 2023, Nyovest made several videos in which he detailed how he was forging a closer relationship with his maker, as he seeks to reinvent himself as a person.<\/p>\n

Living up to that vow, a video of Nyovest being baptised in what seems like a swimming pool with other believers has emerged. On social media, some criticised Nyovest for getting baptised on what they claimed was an unconventional water source for such a ceremony.<\/p>\n

Others however, sympathised with the rapper. \u201cIt\u2019s the non believers who are suddenly theologians and want to dictate where and how baptism should be done… weeh,\u201d one X user said. Nyovest has been dropping some nuggets of religious wisdom on his social media platforms over the last few weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cLife can get hard, but life is never a burden. Life is beyond human understanding, but life is not confusing when you lean on the word of God,\u201d he shared with his followers recently. He continued: \u201cYou are very smart, but you don\u2019t know anything if you don\u2019t know God. Jesus is the light, have a great day. Love.\u201d<\/p>\n
