Popular South African influencer burns designer clothes after becoming born-again

After encountering Christ, one of the many changes Kefilwe Mabote has made in her life is letting go of some worldly possessions she now views as vanity or associated with the demonic realm. South African influencer Kefilwe Mabote, known for her appearance on the 'Young, Famous and African' Netflix series, has posted a video on Instagram setting fire to designer items, many of which were from the luxury brand Versace. Kefilwe Mabote, who had been a pioneer in luxury fashion influencing in South Africa, filmed herself burning several Versace pieces, particularly those with the ‘Medusa’ logo. In her Instagram story, she wrote, “Burning the Medusa face was one of the most freeing and therapeutic things I've ever done. It was part of breaking down the idols I unknowingly built in my heart, the very things that distracted me from fully walking with Jesus.”
