The Resident Minister for Pentecost International Worship Centre (PIWC)-Sakumono in the Teshie-Nungua Area of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Seth Fianko-Larbi, has proclaimed that the resurrection power of the Lord Jesus Christ signifies eternal life in the Ark above the raging floods.
He drew a parallel between Christ and Noah’s Ark in Genesis chapters 7 and 8, saying, ‘As the flood came during Noah’s time, Jesus Christ, who is with you and in you, will protect you like those who were saved in Noah’s ark.’
‘Whatever comes your way as a flood, God is going to use it for your good. There is a rising in every aspect of your life; we are in the ark, and the ark is Christ,’ he said, while urging Christians to believe in the resurrected Christ.
Apostle Fianko-Larbi shared these insights during the climax of this year’s Easter convention held by the PIWCs and Worship Centres in the Teshie-Nungua Area at the GHACEM Park, Sakumono, on Sunday, April 20th, 2025. The theme for the convention was, ‘The Crucified Christ is Alive,’ based on Acts 3:15 and Ephesians 4:1.
In his sermon titled, ‘Walking Daily in the Victorious Power of the Redemption,’ Apostle Fianko-Larbi read scriptures from Romans 8:19, Hebrews 2:14-16, Ephesians 1:9, among others, explaining that Christians live from a position of victory because of the power of Christ’s blood.
‘We cannot be limited by distance, time, and matter; it is the realm of Grace,’ he stated, adding, ‘If God gives you something in the resurrection, nothing can destroy it.’
‘In our journey towards life, one can encounter depression, death, depreciation, distress, and disappointments. However, the risen Christ, who rose from death, is the truth. He is the author of life, the imperishable seed, and nothing in creation can overcome the author of life and His children,’ he emphasized.
According to Apostle Fianko-Larbi, there are two witnesses to the resurrection account. The first is historical data or facts from multiple people, attestation from enemies, eyewitness testimonies, the principle of embracement, and the consistencies in oral accounts of the resurrection.
‘The second witness is you and I, the Christians. We the believers who have tried and tested the resurrection power in our daily lives,’ he added.
Apostle Fianko-Larbi also stated that Jesus died by crucifixion, a fact attested by numerous historians, including His disciples. The final evidence of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection, he disclosed, is the empty tomb and the testimony of the women who visited His tomb.
Apostle Fianko-Larbi further stated, ‘Christians are citizens of heaven, and as believers, we are partakers of the resurrection, with our souls seated in heaven’ (Ephesians 2:6).
The service was interspersed with powerful praise and worship, as well as testimonies of the healing power of the risen Christ. The mass choir ministered through soul-inspiring songs.
