The Vice Chairman of the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council (GPCC), Apostle Nyamekye, has urged pastors to live exemplary lives as many look up to them for inspiration and empowerment.
He observed that the light which the gospel of Jesus Christ is supposed to shine in the world has become ineffectual because some clergymen are, by their deeds, blocking the light.
The Church of Pentecost Chairman referred to instances where some pastors claim to multiply money for their congregants instead of using the Bible to teach them either how to improve themselves or be creative and proactive at work.
“People are looking for Jesus in his pastors and they are not seeing it. Ministers are jars of clay containing the light of God. If we want God’s light to shine in the world, then the ve...
South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa has withdrawn controversial perks for cabinet ministers and their deputies that saw their homes supplied with free electricity and water.
The benefits caused a public outcry as they were considered insensitive at a time South Africans are struggling with daily power cuts and rising cost of living.
In a press briefing on Monday evening, a spokesman said the president “acknowledges and appreciates the public sentiments on the matter”.
The ministerial handbook, which outlines ministerial benefits, will be “aligned to the realities that many South Africans face”, presidential spokesman Vincent Magwenya said.
He said the intention behind the perks was “not a nefarious one”.
“The intention was to try and find some form of balance between wh...
It is trite knowledge that there are some aspects of the functioning of the human body that we as humans have very little control over.
They include nature’s call – urinate and or defecate, sleep and hunger. They come when they may.
I have explained here before that like the computer experiences forced shutdown when there is a problem, sleep is a signal that the body is tired. It is for this reason that sleep can occur even when one is supposedly engaged in activities such as listening to a sermon in church, attending lectures, participating in a meeting or even while driving.
Similarly, hunger occurs when the body needs food. Although it is possible for humans to go without food, that is only for a while. That is why Christians who for one reason or the other need to fast, find a...

The 2022 Basic Education Certificate Examinations (BECE) commences today, Monday, October 17.
The examinations will take place at 2,038 centres across the country.
A total of 552,276 candidates from 18,501 schools will be sitting for the examinations. This is 3.48 percent less than the 2021 entry figure of 572,167.
The number comprises 276,988 males and 275,288 females.
For this year, both schools and private candidates are sitting for examinations at the same time.
In a statement issued ahead of the exams, the West African Examination Council (WAEC) said it decided to organise the exams for both private and school candidates this year as a result of the consistently low entries for the private candidates over the years.
“This year’s BECE will, therefore, see a total ...
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has predicted a tough 2023 as it cut growth predictions and forecast economic contraction in a third of the world.
“The worst is yet to come,” the global financial institution’s World Economic Outlook report said.
“For many people 2023 will feel like a recession,” it added.
A downward revision of the global growth rate for 2023, from the amount the IMF said it expected in July, has been made in the report.
Now, 2.7% growth is expected next year. It’s down from the 6% growth experienced last year and the 3.2% growth forecast for this year.
This is the “weakest growth profile” since 2001, excluding the acute phase of COVID-19 pandemic and the global financial crisis, the IMF said.
It reflects “significant slowdowns” for t...
The UN General Assembly (UNGA) overwhelmingly approved a resolution on Wednesday telling Russia its annexation of four Ukrainian zones is illegal and not valid.
Ghana was among the 143 countries that voted in favour of the resolution, 15 abstained from the exercise and 5 rejected the resolution including Russia.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the resolution “historic” in a tweet and thanked the states that voted in favor.

The authorities in Nigeria say the number of people killed by floods ravaging the country in recent weeks has risen to more than 500.
More than 1,500 others have been wounded while 1.4 million are displaced.
Since the end of July, the West African country has been grappling with a wave of flooding affecting 31 of its 36 states including the capital Abuja.
The floods are caused by heavy rains and release of excess waters from dams within Nigeria and a major dam in neighbouring Cameroon by the authorities.
Experts also partly blame the flooding on the impact of climate change.
The country is hit by floods every year. But this year’s disaster is the worst in more than a decade.
Giving an update on the situation at a press conference on Tuesday, the permanent secretary of the...
