Christ believers have been encouraged to let the
Christ’s presence dwell amongst them and enter the New Year with renewed commitment
with God. He said as Christians, we are
under the obligation to exemplify the personality traits of Christ which are
humility, sanctification, holiness and the greatest of all, love, a sign he indicated
was exhibited by Christ on the cross of Calvary as reason for our salvation. Delivering
a sermon at a special thanksgiving service to usher in the New Year, the District
Pastor of the Bolgatanga Peniel Presbyterian Church, Rev. Amegyei Antwi, further
entreated Christians to live in perfection and avail themselves for God’s spiritual
upliftment. He said Christ as the mediator of creation hopes to bring absolute redemption
to his followers; therefore, if Christians are able to live in h holiness, they are guaranteed victory. Rev. Amegyei Antwi stated with conviction that no
one is insignificant as far as Christ’s salvation is concerned and that our
desire to be called sons and daughters of God could only be realised if we follow
his dictates and repent from all sinful deeds. He prophesy 2014 to be a
promising year and challenged Christians to endure and face the challenges
ahead. For him, the love for humanity
was key, and advised Christians to co-exist with all religious faith for Christ
died for the sins of mankind. Christianity, he however pleaded should not be
limited to only the chapel but at the work places, community and homes. He said
what was left for Christians was to need to embrace Christ and project his
vision to unbelievers. On prosperity, Rev Amegyei Antwi implored Christians to
kill their desire for earthly things but rather get closer to God since He is
capable of honouring them with material blessing. The Covenant Sunday was used to pray for God’s
blessing. The church also sang praises to thank God for taking them through
2013 peacefully.
