Being Born Again Is the Only Escape From Eternal Judgment – Evangelism Director web

Being Born Again Is the Only Escape From Eternal Judgment – Evangelism Director

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

The Evangelism Director of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Emmanuel Kwesi Appiah, has made a strong appeal to all persons to surrender their lives to Christ, declaring that being born again is not optional but a divine requirement for salvation.

Speaking at the climax of the “You Must Be Born Again” Gospel Crusade at Ho Technical University on Sunday, June 1, 2025, Apostle Appiah delivered a sermon on the topic “You Must Be Born Again,” referencing 1 Timothy 2:3-5 and Ephesians 1:7 to explain the redemptive power available only through Jesus Christ.

“There is only one mediator between God and man — the man Jesus Christ,” he said, adding; “Faith in Christ sets us free from the power of sin. There’s a force that influences man which he cannot resist on his own, but through Jesus, we are redeemed and delivered.”

He explained that the command “You must be born again” is not a suggestion, but an uncompromising requirement for entering the Kingdom of God.

“It is a necessity. If you are born once, you will die twice. But if you are born twice, you only die once. This new birth is what saves us from eternal condemnation,” Apostle Appiah declared.

Referencing John 3:1–10, he warned against superficial religiosity and urged believers to pursue a genuine personal relationship with Christ.

“You can’t fake your way into salvation. Jesus knows every man. It’s not about position in the church — it’s about transformation through the Spirit,” he added.

He challenged Christians to reflect Christ in both private and public life, calling for consistency, spiritual discipline, and separation from sinful lifestyles.

“Being born again means being dead and buried with Christ. We don’t continue in sin. A born-again Christian is spiritually minded and lives with eternity in view,” he said, quoting Romans 6:3–6 and Hebrews 11:13–16.

The “You Must Be Born Again” Crusade held at the Ho Technical University began on Thursday. May 29, 2025 and ended on Sunday, June 1, 2025.

HUM Impacts New Takoradi Community With PENT5000 Project web

HUM Impacts New Takoradi Community With PENT5000 Project

by with No Comment Church NewsHUMTop Stories

The Takoradi Sector of the Home and Urban Missions (HUM) of The Church of Pentecost has held a life-changing PENT5000 outreach in New Takoradi.

The event, which took place on Saturday, May 17, 2025, yielded 80 new converts, with 61 being baptised in water, marking a significant spiritual harvest.

The initiative focused on reaching vulnerable and marginalised children in the slums and coastal areas of New Takoradi. Over 800 children received nutritious, hygienic meals to support their physical and psychological well-being.

In addition to the feeding programme, three transformative activities were introduced to further benefit the community, namely free National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) card registration, free water distribution, and a football tournament.

The free NHIS registration was provided for children and adults across the four sub-communities of New Takoradi. A total of 50 new individuals were enrolled, while 188expired cards were renewed, ensuring continued access to healthcare.

The free water also benefited more than 70 households, with families bringing various containers to collect the supply, while teens from Takoradi, Apremdo, and Air Force clubs joined their New Takoradi peers in an exhilarating competition in the Under-15 football tournament. At the end of the contest, New Takoradi emerged as the champions.

Parents, children, and other community members present expressed their gratitude to God and The Church of Pentecost for the timely interventions. Many adults revealed that their NHIS cards had expired, but frequent long queues discouraged them from renewing. Most children in the area lacked NHIS coverage, with some having lost their cards. This free registration brought overwhelming joy to the community.

The HUM Takoradi Sector Pastor, Kwaku Kwantwi, and his wife, Sarah, expressed their gratitude to God for the opportunity to serve the vulnerable despite the heavy downpour. They also extended appreciation to Apostle Sylvester Arhin (Coordinator for Western and Western North Regions) and his wife, Regina, for their support and guidance, as well as the HUM National Coordinator, Apostle Emmanuel Agyei Kwafo, and his team for their leadership in advancing the PENT5000 vision.

The event was heavily financed and supported by Friends of HUM in Takoradi Area, alongside Takoradi Sector Working Team members, New Takoradi District, New Site District and Adientem District.

Among those present were Pastor Solomon and Mrs Lydia Ashaley Djani (New Takoradi District Minister), Pastor Abraham and Mrs Gladys Havor (Takoradi Area HUM Coordinator), Overseer Emmanuel and Mrs Dorcas Oduro (District Minister, Ellobankata), among others.

Fasting & Prayer Tune Christians To God’s Frequency — Pastor Adubofourh Asiedu web

Fasting & Prayer Tune Christians To God’s Frequency — Pastor Adubofourh Asiedu

by with No Comment Church NewsTop Stories

Pastor Maxwell Adubofourh Asiedu, the Yennyawoso District Minister of The Church of Pentecost, has underscored the significance of fasting and prayer in helping believers connect with God in their spiritual journey.

“The more you fast and pray, the more you attune yourself to the frequency of God,” he remarked.

Pastor Adubofourh made this statement during a service with members of Grace Assembly on Tuesday, May 27, 2025, as part of the Church’s ongoing 14-day fasting and prayer programme.

The leadership of The Church of Pentecost has declared a global 14-day peroid of fasting and prayer, dubbed ‘Pentecost Week,’ under the theme “Experiencing the Unleashed Power of the Holy Spirit,” (Acts 2:32-33). This fortnight-long event, which began on Monday, May 26, 2025, is set to conclude on Sunday, June 8, 2025.

In his discussion on “Fasting,” Pastor Adubofourh explained that fasting is the act of abstaining from food and drink for a period of time. He referenced several biblical figures who engaged in fasting and prayer, emphasising its transformative power in achieving breakthroughs.

“Breakthroughs are typically received by those who commit themselves to fasting and prayer because these practices are catalysts for breakthroughs,” he affirmed, referencing Matthew 17:21.

The clergyman also described various types of fasting, including partial, absolute, full, selective, and cooperate fasting.

On the reasons Christians fast, Pastor Maxwell Adubofourh Asiedu noted that believers fast when facing God’s judgement (Psalm 51:1ff), to restore their broken relationship with Christ, and to intercede for others.

“We fast in response to personal challenges, during spiritual warfare, or when confronted with imminent dangers,” he added. He urged the congregation to cultivate a lifestyle of fasting and prayer, cautioning that, “a church that neglects fasting and prayer is a weak church.”
