Ephesians 4:1-3 In Ghana, people no longer define “tolerance” as an acknowledgement that, others have a differing belief. In most churches and among individuals, people have rejected the possibility that, “objective truth exists. When people hold on to certain ethical and moral correctness in Ghana, you are branded as intolerant. As believers or individuals, we […]
EPHESIANS 4:1-3 As believers, we are enjoined by love to tolerate people. We may not have to necessarily agree with them, but we must accommodate them. We don’t need to be members of the same tribe, clan, political party, congregation or ministry to tolerate one another. We should not intentionally look for opportunities to anger […]
EPHESIANS 4:1-3 In my beloved country Ghana, we are bombarded everyday about the need for tolerance; Political and religious, and the need for co-existence. Usually, this is presented as the non- judgemental of acceptance of all perspectives. But I have discovered that, those who stand for the truth (especially in political and religious circles) are […]

BE COMPLETELY HUMBLE AND GENTLE, BE PATIENT, BEARING WITH ONE ANOTHER IN LOVE.MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO KEEP THE UNITY OF THE SPIRIT THROUGH THE BOND OF PEACE” In recent times, we […]
COLOSSIANS 3:12 We can not deny the fact that, there are “mean people”. We are commanded to “Love God and love our neighbours”, that’s the centrality of Christianity. But that will not change the fact that, some people will never be kind. These people may be strangers, who know nothing about you, your profession or […]
COLOSSIANS 3:12 “THEREFORE, AS GOD’S CHOSEN PEOPLE, HOLY AND DEARLY LOVED, CLOTHE YOURSELVES WITH COMPASSION, KINDNESS, HUMILITY, GENTLENESS AND PATIENCE”.( NIV) Yesterday after an awesome “Super Word Service”, I had an interactive session with all new members. A gentleman approached me afterwards and said “people are nice in this church”, then I heard a tiny […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 Dear reader, drawing your attention to certain deficiencies in your (we all have character flaws anyway) character, behaviour and attitude is not a personal attack, but rather it is way of drawing our attention, so that we can grow and be better used by the Lord. We have to be willing to […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 The fact I have been trying to establish since Monday is that, Character is a spiritual fruit that is built from a real, godly relationship and commitment to Christ. It is the fiber of our moral centre and stretches throughout our being, embracing and binding together our relationships, as a community, family, […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 One of the qualities that brought David to the limelight was his positive character. His courage and trust in God. He slayed Goliath, at the time his own brothers didn’t believe in him. ( 1 Samuel 17:28) David was a man of compassion, tender hearted and gentle in spirit. We see the […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 We all have the ability to be good or bad; to take what Christ has given us ( that is humility) and use it or ignore or even perverse it. This is not about reputation and ambassordorship in Christ. It is about how we must be, it’s about how we must fully […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 ( NIV) “FOR THIS VERY REASON, MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ADD TO YOUR FAITH GOODNESS; AND TO GOODNESS, KNOWLEDGE; AND TO KNOWLEDGE, SELF-CONTROL.. It is said that; charisma, gift or talent will take one to a place, but CHARACTER will keep you there”. “Character is what you are in the dark” ( […]
2 THESSALONIANS 3:14 Many church leaders have abused the processes leading to church discipline. Even in civil government, there’s always room for people to make amends. The church is like a hospital, where people come to be treated of their ailments. “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick”.( Luke 5:31 […]
