Tell The World About Jesus – Apostle Nyamekye To Missionaries

The Chairman of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, has charged ministers of the church missions field to declare to the world that Jesus Christ has atoned for the sins of the world.

Apostle Nyamekye made this charge at the Pentecost Convention Centre, Gomoa-Fetteh, during the just-ended orientation for newly-called missionaries of the church.

Addressing the missionaries, the Chairman of the church said that Jesus, who is the atoning sacrifice, did not only come to earth to die for believers, but He died for the sins of the whole world.

“When you reject Him (Jesus), you reject the appeasing sacrifice that saves,” he said, stressing that the sceptre of the authority of the Kingdom of God is Jesus.

According to the Chairman, Jesus is the only one who takes away the wrath of God, saying, “The righteous run to Him always when they are faced with difficulties.”

“When you carry the sceptre, you must be a righteous person. This is the foundation of Christ,” the Chairman stated.

He added: “Fasting and prayers do not activate the name of Jesus; it does not make the name more powerful, but it releases our spirit man and strengthens our faith to be able to act upon this name Jesus.”

The Chairman charged the missionaries not to worry about where they have been sent to since Jesus is the king over all nations.

Establishing the power and authority in the name of Jesus, Apostle Nyamekye iterated that His resurrection from the dead was God’s proof that He is the appointed one, hence the Son of God.

He then charged them to go into the nations and preach the gospel in love since the gospel is the essence of missions.

2022 Orientation For New Missionaries Ends

The 2022 orientation for newly-called missionaries of The Church of Pentecost has ended at the Pentecost Convention Centre (PCC), Gomoa-Fetteh, near Kasoa.

The five-day event, organised by the International Missions Office, began on Monday, July 4, and ended on Friday, July 8, 2022.

Closing the event with a sermon on the topic, “The Ministerial Call,” the Chairman of the church, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, stated that the ministerial calling is a life of pure and holy sacrifice.

“The whole church is called for the whole mission, but this particular calling is a call to sacrifice for the sake of the house of God,” Apostle Nyamekye said.

According to him, the call is a sacrifice for the sake of God and His kingdom. He, therefore, said that the motives of a man when he is being called are always read by God.

He admonished the clergy to be careful of the kind of friends they take in ministry because some have not been called and due to that their ‘gods’ are their bellies.

Apostle Nyamekye further said that ministry is about snatching men from hell and making them ready for heaven, stressing, “We are to seek the lost wherever they are.”

He added: “Anyone fit for heaven is a great asset to the earth. Therefore, once you offer yourself as a sacrifice, you do not determine where you are sacrificed. Hence, when you accept the call, where you are posted is in the hands of God.”

The Chairman urged them to have a better understanding of the ministry so that God will turn things around for them.

Quoting David Livingstone, he emphasized that the ministerial call is a diplomatic call assigned by God to men. He then encouraged wives of missionaries to support their husbands instead of arguing about their roles.

“As a minister of the gospel you are a diplomat, so your spouse’s role is not defined, hence, you are one in ministry,” he emphasised.

Notable among speakers for the orientation were Apostle Alexander Nana Yaw Kumi-Larbi (General Secretary), Apostle Emmanuel Agyemang Bekoe (International Missions Director), Apostle Yaw Adjei-Kwarteng (Bompata Area Head and Executive Council Member), Apostle Dr. Amos Jimmy Markin (Evangelism Director), Apostle Samuel Gyau Obuobi (Asamankese Area Head).

Others were Apostle Dr. Dela Quampah (Ho Area Head and Executive Council Member), Apostle Dr. Emmanuel Anim (Acting Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Pentecost University), Apostle Vincent Anane Denteh (Pentecost Men’s Ministry Director and Executive Council Member), Apostle Emmanuel Agyei Kwafo (Co-ordinator for Home and Urban Missions), Apostle Lt. Col. Benjamin Kumi-Woode (Chaplain, Ghana Armed Forces), Pastor Alexander Nyame (Co-ordinator, Ministry To Persons With Disabilities), and many more.
