The Affram Plains Area Head of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle William Boakye Agyarko, has urged Ghanaians, including chiefs to give their lives to Jesus Christ in order for them to book a place in heaven when they die.

Quoting from Revelation 13:14, Apostle Agyarko said:  “You can choose to die a glorious death or a miserable death. People who die in Christ Jesus are those who have chosen the glorious path that leads to eternal life.”

Apostle Agyarko said this at the funeral service of the late Mr. John Kweku Ankumah at the Jubilee Park in Takoradi on Saturday, June 2, 2018.

The late Ankumah was the father of Mrs. Cynthia Adelaide Araba Siaw Agyepong, wife of Elder Dr. Joseph Siaw Agyepong, who is also the Women’s Ministry Leader of Teshie-Nungua Area.

“If God blesses you, gives you a family, a vocation and you live long and you die, it is good,” Apostle Agyarko said. He however explained that it is important for people to endeavour to die in the Lord, saying, “That is the blessing above all others.”

“We have two types of deaths – the glorious death and the miserable death. If you die in the Lord, you have a glorious death; if you do not die in the Lord, you have a miserable death,” he said, adding, “Everybody will eventually die but you can either have a glorious death or a miserable death.”
