by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism Ministry

A two-day film ministry training workshop was organised by the Evangelism Ministry of The Church of Pentecost in collaboration with the Great Commission Movement of Ghana (GCMG) for the Pentecost Gospel Heralds to equip them to become effective soul winners through film evangelism.

The Pentecost Gospel Heralds are a group of young men and women of the church who have volunteered to support the Evangelism Ministry in engaging in various evangelistic activities in order to win more souls for Christ.

The training workshop was held on November 26 and 27, 2020 at the Burma Camp Worship Centre in Accra.

Speaking on the topic: “Standards of God’s Marking Scheme” based on Matthew 25:20-30 on the first day of the event, the Evangelism Director, Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin, indicated that there are two parameters that make up the marking scheme of God which are good and faithful. He also said that the greatest privilege man has is to win souls.

He admonished the gathering to aim towards the attainment of these two commendations from Jesus as they seek to win souls.  

Some of the topics treated at the event were “Importance of Film Evangelism”, “The Difference Between Film Evangelism and Film Ministry,” “The Strategy in Film Ministry” and “Components of Film Ministry”

The second day of the event was, however, set aside for practical work where participants were trained on how to mount and operate the equipment.

The Resident Minister of Burma Camp Worship Centre, Apostle Lt. Col Benjamin Godson Kumi-Woode, who also serves as Patron of the Pentecost Gospel Heralds, climaxed the two-day event with a brief exhortation.

Quoting from Luke 14:13, he admonished the participants to use the knowledge acquired and the equipment received to go out and compel lost souls to come to Jesus Christ.

He further prayed for the participants to be empowered by the Holy Spirit for the great task ahead.

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

The Teshie Nungua Area of The Church of Pentecost has donated a heavy-duty truck to the Evangelism Ministry,

The truck was handed over to ministry by the Area Head, Apostle Dr. Alfred Koduah, in a short presentation ceremony on Thursday, December 17, 2020, at the premises of the Teshie-Nungua Area Office.

In an interview with PENTECOST NEWS, Apostle Dr. Koduah noted that the truck was purposely acquired by the Area to assist in conveying heavy equipment to and from event grounds especially during occasions like Christmas and Easter conventions. However, the leadership of the Area have realised that it is being under-utilised because it serves no purpose at all after the conventions.

Apostle Dr. Alfred Koduah hinted that initially, the Area had wanted to donate it to the Church’s headquarters, but after several deliberations, have chosen to hand it over to the Evangelism Ministry where its service is direly needed.

The Director of the Evangelism Ministry, Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin, who received the truck on behalf the ministry, thanked the Teshie Nungua Area for the kind gesture and promised to put it to good use for the benefit of the Kingdom business.

Present at the presentation ceremony were the Area pastorate and their wives.

“Do Not Neglect The Great Salvation Of Jesus Christ” – Evangelism Director

by with No Comment Church NewsEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

The Director of the Evangelism Ministry of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin, has cautioned Christians not to neglect the great salvation that they have received from the Lord Jesus Christ.

“It was purchased not with money but by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ,” Apostle Dr. Markin said, adding, “We should never underestimate the sacrifice He made, but share with others.”

Apostle Dr. Markin said this when he preached during the second service at the Pentecost International Worship Centre (PIWC)- Sakumono, on Sunday, August 9, 2020.

Reading from Hebrews 2:3, Luke 2:11, John 3:17, Romans 6:23, among other Scriptures, he told Christians that the salvation that they have received is authentic and that it does not depend on man’s capability, but rest solely on the Lord Jesus Christ.

“The name Jesus is authentic and powerful. He is the ancient of days, and He has not changed. He still remains the Saviour even in turbulent times,” he said.

According to Apostle Dr. Markin, the greatest canker the world is facing now is the sin of all dimensions and forms. He, however, encouraged Christians to be steadfast in their faith, saying, “God has reserved salvation for you irrespective of the magnitude of the perceived sin you have committed. Do not be despaired or give up on yourself, for liberation has come to His children and that He has His children factored in His salvation plan.”

During the first service, Elder Felix Adu, the Financial Committee Secretary for the district, ministered on the theme, “Fortifying your faith in the Lord.” He indicated that for Christians, fortifying themselves in the Lord is a must in their quest to walk with the Lord in their Christian journey.

According to Elder Adu, Christians ought to fortify themselves in the Lord to overcome the enemy and preserve their faith in the face of trials and challenges (James 5: 11), honour God in the midst of unbelievers (Daniel 3:17; 28-29). It will also help believers to mount a higher ground in the face of trials (Genesis 39: 8-10) and to solely trust in the Lord wholeheartedly, just as Abraham did (Hebrews 11:17-18).

He urged Christians to bear the mark of the Lord Jesus in whatever they do (Galatians 6: 14-17) to transform the world.

“Christians should be outstanding in all their endeavours,” he said, adding, “As Christians, if we have any boast to make, we should boast in the blood of the Lord, for by so doing no amount of destruction from the enemy’s camp can break us; we will still stand strong if we fortify ourselves in the Lord.”

The Resident Minister, Pastor Anthony Owusu Sekyere Kwarteng, was grateful to the Evangelism Director for visiting the district.

by with No Comment Evangelism Ministry

One hundred and twenty-five (125) souls made a decision for Jesus Christ on the first day of the “Sogakope for Christ” crusade being held at the Sogakope Presbyterian School Park.

The four-day event, which opened on October 23, 2019, is being jointly organised by the Evangelism Ministry and the Sogakope Area of The Church of Pentecost.

Participating in the crusade are Apostle Amos Jimmy Markin (Director, Evangelism Ministry), Apostle Isaac Tetteh Juddah (Sogakope Area Head), Apostle Peter Dzemekey (Aflao Area Head), Pastor Asa Otu (Deputy Director, Evangelism Ministry) and Elder Seth Peasah (National Evangelism Ministry Executive Committee Member), among others. 

Speaking on the first day of the event, Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin asserted that the only remedy for sin is Jesus Christ. According to him, sin is the root of all troubles in the life of humankind, but its cure can only be found in Jesus Christ. 

“All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, but Jesus Christ is the only name given unto men to restore this lost glory,” he said.

Referring to 1 Corinthians 5: 17, among other Bible texts, the Evangelism Director said that Jesus Christ is a forgiver of sins and a destiny changer who brings humankind out of the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of marvellous light.

He said that the life of the madman at Gadara (Luke 8:26-39) changed on the day he encountered with Jesus indicating how powerful Jesus Christ is and His ability to change destinies.

To the glory of God, the first day of the crusade recorded an attendance of about 1,410 people. 48 persons, out of the total souls won, were baptized in water on the same day.
