Denzel Washington Receives Minister’s License, Gets Baptized

Denzel Washington can now add ministry to his long resume.

On Saturday, the Gladiator II star was baptized, receiving a certificate of baptism, as well as a minister’s license, meaning that he can later get ordained. The event took place at the Kelly Temple Church of God in Christ located in New York City’s Harlem, per Today. First Jurisdiction Church of God in Christ Eastern New York livestreamed the service on Facebook.

“In one week I turn 70. It took a while, but I’m here,” the prolific actor said. Washington also thanked his wife, Pauletta Washington.

The two-time Academy Award winner has been open about his faith before, telling Esquire last month that while talk of religion in Hollywood is rare, he is unflinching in his resolve to share his beliefs and experience.

“I’m unafraid. I don’t care what anyone thinks. See, talking about the fear part of it—you can’t talk like that and win Oscars. You can’t talk like that and party. You can’t say that in this town,” he wrote in an essay relayed by the magazine.

He continued at the time, “It’s not fashionable. It’s not sexy. But that doesn’t mean people in Hollywood don’t believe. There’s no such thing called Hollywood anyway. What does that even mean? That to me means a street called Hollywood Boulevard. It’s not like we all meet somewhere and discuss what we believe. So I don’t know how many other actors have faith. I didn’t do no poll. How would I find that out? I mean, there’s no Church Actor Meetings I’ve been to.”

He played an evil role in Gladiator 2.


Congratulations to him though.

He saw what is about to befall P Diddy and their fellow Celebrity colleagues and decided to go and get baptised. A victim of Child Sex Trafficking exposed the fact he attended those PDiddy parties and no one in the industry is allowed to expose him and P Diddy. Only time will tell if this baptism is Genuine.

Halleluia... To God be the Glory.

How old is she?

Is she 38 yo?

Do your parents still control your life? Are they responsible for your online and offline behaviour?

Somebori shout alleluia.

Denzel washsington descendant of slaves doing what he knows how to do best

Good for him.
So after receiving his license and all, does he believe heaven will have its doors open to him?
Religious people and their dumbness are things you'll find in a book called STUPIDITY.

Denzel never hid his faith. Anybody can say anything. The burden of proof lies with the accuser.

Hmmmn the best black actor in Hollywood.

A lot of people attended that party or parties at least once, and a good number never knew what went down behind the scenes.

Even you might have been to parties or occasions where horrible things happened behind closed doors or in the backyards.

Don't be so quick to crucify people, like you are perfect.
