Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin, the Evangelism Ministry Director of The Church of Pentecost, has affirmed that there is no name other than Jesus by which humanity can be saved.
He made this declaration yesterday during the opening of the “Togo for Christ” crusade at Adidogome Park in Lome, Togo.
In a brief sermon based on Luke 7:37-40, 48, and 50, Apostle Dr. Markin, who is also an Executive Council Member of the Church, emphasised that the greatest problem facing humanity is not poverty, sickness, disease, or the pursuit of witchcraft and charms, but sin.
He warned that sin kills, paralyses, blinds, and is the root of all evil, which is why it is the cause of all the problems of humanity.
“When the devil possesses you, he makes you do strange things. The worst name that can ever be given to you is ‘sinner’,” he said.
Apostle Dr. Markin further noted that sin alienates one from God, their future, and eternity, stressing that Jesus is the only cure for sin.
He explained that all humanity has sinned because they were conceived and born in sin. Therefore, everyone must come to faith in Jesus, declaring: “Jesus saves, heals, forgives sins, sets captives free, and gives hope to the hopeless.”
He asserted that the name of Jesus is the only name in and under heaven by which humanity can be redeemed from the destructive influence of sin.
He thus urged all who are yet to surrender their lives to Christ by accepting Him as their Lord and personal Saviour.
The “Togo for Christ” crusade is being jointly organised by the International Missions Directorate, The Church of Pentecost Togo International and the Evangelism Ministry Directorate of the church.
The four-day crusade is under the theme “Jesus Saves and Heals.”
