Setting The Christ Record Straight – A Christian Article To The Body Of Christ

Setting The Christ Record Straight – A Christian Article To The Body Of Christ

Features
Truth be told, it is a great lie for us to believe and accept that all religions and belief systems have the same God but different ways of worship. We have all fallen for this cliche for far too long, denying us the opportunity to approach matters of salvation from the proper perspective. Setting the record straight is of great importance and benefit to humanity. We must not be deceived by the prince of this world, the devil, lest we lose focus on our evangelical and unleashed agenda of winning the world back to God. If one denies the only true way to God, Jesus Christ, then you are worshiping another alien and foreign god and not the Almighty God who created the world who you proclaim all religion and men worship. In 1 John 2: 23, the Bible says, "No one who denies the Son ha...
Ethical Decision Making: The Sources And Application Of Moral Law And Moral Principles 

Ethical Decision Making: The Sources And Application Of Moral Law And Moral Principles 

Features
Introduction  Moral law serves as a fundamental guide for human conduct, compelling individuals to reject evil and pursue good. Throughout history, philosophers have debated its origins, leading to three primary perspectives: human nature, societal influence, and divine authority. This article explores these perspectives, evaluates their implications, and distinguishes between absolute and universal moral principles in ethical decision-making.  Sources of Moral Law  1. Human Nature as the Source of Moral Law  Immanuel Kant, a leading moral philosopher, argued that moral law is inherent in human rationality. According to Kant, every rational being possesses an internal moral compass – an obligation imposed by their own will rather than external influence. Mor...
Jesus Christ, The Perfect Master

Jesus Christ, The Perfect Master

Features
Jesus Christ stands as the Perfect Master, reigning supreme over every aspect of life. His mastery is evident through seven extraordinary signs recorded in the Gospel of John, each revealing His divine authority and boundless power. In the Gospel of John, Jesus’ extraordinary deeds are described as “signs” (Greek: σημεῖα, ‘sēmeia’), unlike the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke), which refer to them as “miracles” or “wonders” (Greek: δυνάμεις, ‘dynameis’). John’s choice of the term “signs” highlights their deeper meaning beyond mere supernatural acts. These events serve as revelations of Jesus’ divine nature and mission, pointing to His identity as the Son of God. Rather than being just displays of power, they function as significant markers that invite faith and demonstrate H...
The Untold Story of African Insurance Sector

The Untold Story of African Insurance Sector

Features
By Etornam Agbemor The writer of this article is a journalist with Pent Media Centre Insurance accounts for only three per cent of Africa's Gross Domestic Product, which is less than half of the global average of seven per cent. However, insurance provides a safety net against a variety of external threats such as natural disasters, health threats, and economic disruptions. Needed but not prioritised, relied on but not trusted - these are just a few of the perceptions that have defined interactions with the insurance sector. For a long time, the sector has struggled to deliver relevant products, particularly to customers at the bottom of the economic pyramid. Remote locations, lower education levels and a lack of trust or experience with formal institutions have been key contri...
Developing a Winning Edge: 7 Key Essential Skills for Workplace Success

Developing a Winning Edge: 7 Key Essential Skills for Workplace Success

Features
Success in the workplace is often determined by a combination of technical expertise, soft skills, and continuous learning. Developing these skills not only enhances career growth but also fosters a more efficient and collaborative work environment. As Proverbs 22:29 states, "Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men." This verse underscores the importance of diligence and excellence in one’s professional journey. We also learn from Colossians 3:23-24 – “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.” This passage reminds us that our ultimate boss is God, and we should approach work with passion an...
Betting And Its Toll On Young Lives: Christian Views And Responses

Betting And Its Toll On Young Lives: Christian Views And Responses

Features
Introduction  While the Bible does not explicitly condemn gambling or betting, it emphasises the dangers of greed, the importance of hard work, and the need to avoid "get-rich-quick" schemes, which are often associated with gambling.

It cautions against the love of money and the pursuit of wealth through questionable means. The Youth and Betting  Recently, gambling among Ghanaian youth has seen a marked increase. Studies have reported a prevalence of at least 30% of gambling among children and adolescents, including sports betting, lottery, and casino gambling. This surge in youth participation in gambling is gradually leading to many social vices ...

Doing Evil Innocently, But With A Clear Conscience

Doing Evil Innocently, But With A Clear Conscience

Features
“My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me” – (1 Cor. 4:4, NIV) Conscience is subjective. Sometimes, a person’s conscience may be clear, but this does not mean that the person is innocent (Apostle Eric Nyamekye). People can commit unethical or harmful acts without malicious intent or awareness that their actions are wrong. They genuinely believe their actions are justified, even though they are objectively causing harm. This article explores this oxymoron of life using biblical illustrations. What is Evil? Evil is generally seen as immorality, wickedness, and actions that cause harm or undermine the moral foundations of the world. The concept is broadly categorized as either natural evil or moral evil (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philoso...

Don’t Change The Great Commission To Great Omission – Children’s Director Tells Church Leaders

Features
The Director of the Children's Ministry of The Church of Pentecost, Pastor Samuel Avornyo, has urged church leaders not to change the Great Commission to a Great Omission. Pastor Avornyo said this when addressing ministers, children workers, officers, and parents in the Abirem Agona Zone on Thursday, March 13, 2025, during his ‘Vision Casting Visit’ to the Elmina Area of the church. The Children's Director emphasized that any soul-winning effort that neglects children as a target for evangelism or as a medium through which God can win other souls becomes a Great Omission rather than the Great Commission. ‘For me, the letter 'C' in the Great Commission represents Children. Children have souls that need to be won. They must not be ignored while they are young. The gospel is about th...
