Work on the church building commenced on August 15, 2023, and it was completed and dedicated on May 30, 2025, during a colourful service officiated by Apostle Francis Agyemang Badu, the Area Head for Kintampo.

The community and its leadership expressed their deep gratitude to The Church of Pentecost for its contribution to local development through the edifice.

Speaking at the event, Apostle Agyemang Badu, on behalf of the Chairman and the Executive Council of the church, thanked Overseer Boakye Danquah and his family for their kind gesture. He also commended the district pastor for his prudent management of the funds entrusted to him.

You Have Just One Life; Surrender to Jesus Now! – Pastor Donkoh Urges Youth

by with No Comment Church HistoryEvangelism MinistryTop Stories

The PENSA Travelling Secretary for Kwadaso Sector, Pastor Isaac Donkoh, has stressed that being born again is not about merely attending church but involves a complete transformation of one’s life through faith in Christ.

Delivering a sermon at the “You Must Be Born Again” Gospel Crusade at the Ho Technical University, he noted that “Being born again is not a matter of going to church. You can belong to a church and still not be saved.” According to him, true conversion changes a person’s life completely (2 Corinthians 5:17).

Expounding further, he reminded the congregation of the fleeting nature of life and the certainty of death, referencing Job 14:5 and Hebrews 9:27.

“God has set a limit on the number of days each of us has. No one can exceed that limit. You have just one life. Don’t waste it,” he warned.

Urging the youth to remember their Creator while they still have strength, he cited Ecclesiastes 12:1. “The great Day of the Lord is coming. On that day, status won’t matter—only those whose names are found in the Book of Life will be saved,” he cautioned, referencing Revelation 20:12.

Pastor Donkoh did not shy away from the gravity of eternal judgment, painting a vivid picture of the fate of the unrepentant. “The proud will be humbled,” he said, quoting Isaiah 2:12. “On that day, people will run to mountains and beg them to fall on them. But there’ll be no escape,” he added, drawing from Revelation 6:12–16.

Highlighting God’s gift of free will, he said, “God has given us the power to decide what to do with our lives. But the only right decision is to call on the name of the Lord Jesus. There is no tomorrow. The time is now.”

“You cannot exchange your soul for money, sex, or anything else. One day, we will all die, and after death comes judgment. Make peace with Jesus while you still can,” he concluded.

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.
