Finally someone in Ghana will be bring scripture to the table again . the country and its culture has been stained with the crazy word of faith theology.

I hope larders in the church call out to their brethren across the pond for aid in bringing reformed theology home.

Pray for the nation to wake up , and understand they dont even know the gospel of JESUS CHRIST.

I THINK THE TEACHINGS AND LIFE OF DEEPER LIFE MEMBERS REFLECT THE TRUE NATURE OF CHRISTIANITY. THEY EMPHASISE ONLY ON SALVATION AND HOLINESS AND THEN THE MIRACLES FOLLOW.GOD WILL SAVE GHANA!

The Conjoined Twins And Mighty 'Men Of God’
.....................................

When I heard of the conjoined twins at Komfo Anokye hospital I wished this was in the time of Jesus. Peter and Mark would rush to the great teacher and miracle worker screaming “Rabbi, Rabbi, you have to come quick, there are conjoined twins that need to be separated.” Jesus would rush to the home of the twins. The distraught mother of the twins would prostrate herself at the master’s feet crying uncontrollably. Jesus would walk to the bed and lay his hands on the babies. He would say a short prayer. Right before the eyes of the small crowd that had gathered, the tissues that joined the two babies would be heard separating. Not before long, it was done! The babies would be separated! The crowd would wonder and marvel and go away praising God.

Unfortunately, this is not the first century. Dr. Boateng Nimako and his team tried their very best at komfo Anokye, but the babies did not survive, probably because we do not have the medical equipment to keep them alive. Collectively, our heart is broken as a nation. Psychologically, we are defeated. We wanted to tell the world that our doctors are capable, that we have arrived, that we are not some banana republic. We wanted to celebrate with the parents and family of the babies. After the Black Stars painful elimination, this would have been a soothing balm to our bruised soul.

As a Christian, several questions come to my mind. Ghana has more prophets and pastors with big titles than any nation in the world, next to Nigeria. How come no prophet came forward to perform a miracle to separate the babies? My pastor says if you believe, you can perform miracles, just like Jesus did. Anytime there is a serious medical emergency like this one, our miracle-working pastors are nowhere to be found. Their best excuse is to ask us to pray for the doctors. They go back to performing their ‘miracles’ after it is all over.

The Yoruba prophet T. B. Joshua is known all over Africa through his Emmanuel TV, for performing “miracles” but when a case like this arises, he is missing in action, he is silent . There is a deafening silence among these prophets and pastors. Are their miracles only on TV? Where is Duncan-Williams and Mensah-Otabil? Where is Rev. Owusu-Bempah? Where are all the men of God?

Jesus performed many miracles. He fed 5,000 people with five loaves of bread. He spoke to a storm to calm down. He walked on water. He put back a soldier’s severed ear. How come no man of God is able to walk on water or calm the seas or put back an ear today? The only miracle these pastors perform is cast out demons. That’s it! They all claim to cast out demons- look for some psychologically disturbed individual and speak in tongues at them, sprinkle holy water on them and voila! You are a great prophet, a wondrous worker of miracles! Is it because this is one miracle everyone can fake? There is also the ubiquitous wheel chair miracle. There is never the healing of someone with withered and twisted legs. Always the person in a wheel chair forced to run across the stage. Can any of these men of God just perform some real miracle for once?

Are there miracles today? It would be great to see a man of God part the Volta into two like Moses did the Red Sea. What about a man of God command fire from heaven like Elijah? A really impressive one would be a man of God making a 90yr old woman have a baby like Abraham’s wife Sarah. God is the same, he does not change, as the Bible says, how come these miracles don’t happen through our so-called prophets today?

We are tired of the healing crusades where all these’ men of God’ do is pretend to cast out demons and make people with normal legs walk. If you note carefully, they never heal the people with twisted, broken legs. They all recycle the same old tired miracle tricks. These are not miracles, these are tricks to take money away from poor and sick people.

Our politicians, NDC or NPP, love these fake miracles because instead of us pressuring them for modern equipment and facilities at hospitals like Korle-Bu and Komfo Anokye, we put our hopes in miracles from the honey-coated lips of ‘men of God’. Instead of questioning the fat salaries of those in parliament, while our hospitals are death traps, we go to church and fast and pray and pay tithes and cower in the self-deluding belief that when there are conjoined twins, we can miraculously separate them in the name of Jesus.

RECENTLY THERE WERE TWINS THAT WE JOINED AT BIRTH. THE DOCTORS HAD THE DIFFICULT JOB OF SEPERATING THEM. I DID NOT SEE ANY PROPHET OR MAN OF GOD COME FORWARD TO PERFORM A MIRACLE. ALL OF THEM WERE HIDING. EVEN THE SO-CALLED FATHER OF MIRACLES TB JOSHUA WAS MISSING IN ACTION. HE COULD NOT PERFORM ANY MIRACLE. THEY COULD NOT MIRACULOUSLY SEPERATE THE TWINS.

THE TRUTH IS THAT ALL THESE PROPHETS AND MIRACLE WORKERS ARE LIARS. THEY ARE CHARLATANS. WHEN THE REAL MEDICAL PROBLEM ARISES, THEY RUN AWAY. THEY CANNOT PERFORM ALL THESE MIRACLES WE SEE ON TV. IT IS KNOWN THAT SOME OF THESE MEN OF GOD PAY PEOPLE TO PRETENT TO BE SICK PEOPLE. THAT IS THE MIRACLE WE SES THEM PERFORM ON TV.

THAT IS WHY WHEN IT COMES TO REALITY, WHEN PRESIDENT MILLS HAVE CANCER, WHEN THE BABIES ARE JOINED AT BIRTH, THE SO-CALLED ROPHETS PERFORM NOTHING, THEY FAIL.
THIER MIRACLES ARE ONLY STAGED ON TV TO FOOL PEOPLE. TAKE THEM TO THE KORLE-BU CHILDRENS WARD AND THEY WOULD GIVE YOU EXCUSES.

GOD'S MIRACLES ARE WONDROUS- MOSES DIVIDED THE RED SEA, JESUS HEALED A LEPER, JESUS CALMED A STORM AT SEA, DANIEL SURVIVED A LIONS' DEN. HOW MANY OF THESE PROPHETS AND MEN OF GOD TODAY CAN DO ANY OF THESE? NONE! WHY? IF GOD DOES NOT CHANGE AND HE IS THE SAME WHY CANT THESE PROPHETS PERFORM ANY MIRACLES OF THESE ?

BECAUSE ALL OF THEM ARE LIARS AND FAKES. THEY ARE FULL OF RIDICULOUS EXCUSES. THEY ARE LIARS..THEY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SICK AND DESPERATE PEOPLE. FROM AGYIN-ASARE, DUNCAN-MILLIAMS TO OTABIL, THERE ARE NO MIRACLE PERFORMERS. YES, THEY CAN PRAY VERY WELL. BUT TO TELL THE STORM TO CALM DOWN, TO HEAL A CHILD WITH MANGLED LEGS, TO HEAL LEPROSY OR TO FEED 500 WITH 5 LOAVES OF BREAD, FORGET IT, THEY CANNOT DO IT.

THEY CANNOT PERORM ANY MIRACLES.

I think Prof Adei's statement is only a half-truth. The question is: who performed miracles more than Jesus himself? In Mark 16:18 Jesus said and these signs shall follow them that believe, they shall speak with new tongues...So i dont see the point in saying that christianity is not about miracles. Christians who are sick need to be healed through miracles, the barren must have children restored to them through miracles etc. And Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever!

It is my sincere hope and prayer that many Ghanaian christians,especially
those who have become so caught up in
signs and wonders mentality will heed to this wise counsel. Yes Jesus Christ
is still doing wonders today as He did in days past but he did not say our focus should be on the Miracles. We are to keep our focus on Him, walking daily within the limits of His perfect will-His word. We have to bear fruits of righteousness/holiness.

PROF you are perfectly right the bible says "hands that do not work should not eat" again "GOD helps those who help themselves" the europeans who brought christianity to Africa believe in God and work hard hence their rapid development and prosperity. They dont believe in wonders and miracles but in africa we think the false pastors and prophets have solutions to our daily problems through wonders and miracles hence we spend most of our the in churches instead of being realistic and objective to confront our problems squarely as a result we are always poor and speculative with our lives,i have said false pastors and politicians make ghanaians more poorer through false prophesis and promises hence we must be very watchful of them.

He's right in saying that christinity is not about miracles and wonders today. In fact, the scriipture says these things will cease when that which is commplete has come (ie maturity of the church and/or the written Word- the Bible): Take a moment to read 1 Cor 13 (short chapter).

Miracles and wonders served the purpose of confirming the word of christ and the apostles. When Christ told to cripple that his sins had been forgiven how did those people around know it was true? They knew it when he confirmed it with a miracle by asking the paralytic to take up his bed and go home, and he did as Christ told him. He said this so you may believe that the son of man has the power on earth to forgive sins(Matt 9:1-8). This is the purpose of miracles/wonders.

Now that the written word - the Bible, is complete, and all these miracles are recorded it, why does one need miracles to believe, all we need now is faith in God to provide for us and heal our diseases.

AJ-USA, your quote is absolutely right but remember that Jesus spoke in parables and without parables he didn't speak. Parables are eathly language with spiritual meaning. The message in the Bible is complete spiritual and its interpretation is very very hard unless God opens your spiritual mind, you will be following people who believe in these miralces and wonders phenomenon.

Ever since Jesus walked on sea, has any human being able to do so? Can you take a poisonous snake without been bitten? These are all spiritual messages which have spiritual meaning. Buddy, I have to attend to my cyber customers so have a good day.

Peter and John healed a cripple after Jesus ascended to heaven! The man was asking for money and they gave him miracle...was that good or evil?

Act 3:1 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
Act 3:2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
Act 3:3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
Act 3:4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
Act 3:5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
Act 3:6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Act 3:7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.
Act 3:8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
Act 3:9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
Act 3:10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.

Ka Akyire, can the devil perform miracles? Does he lie? What will he do in the closing scenes of this world?

Hear the word of God:
"For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie...." (2 Thessalonians 2:7-11)

Satan, a created being, will deceive the whole world and cause all to worship him.

"And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him (Satan), whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb (Christ) slain from the foundation of the world" (Revelation 13:8).

But God has a people who will not be swayed by his lying wonders. Note:

"And the dragon (Satan) was wroth with the woman (the Church), and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God (including the 4th Commandment-Saturday), and have the testimony of Jesus Christ" (Revelation 12:17).

Ka Akyire, you claim this writer is opinionated; what will you say about the Immortality of the Soul doctrine being taught by T.B. Joshua and his SCOAN? Recall when he (T.B. Joshua) came to Ghana during the burial Of Mills, he said "if only we knew where our father is, we will not grieve...he is in a better place."

It is such an extra-bibilical opinion about the scripture that makes a man of God opinionated because it is speculative, a theosophy. Please note the temptation in Eden.

"But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" (Genesis 2:17).

"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die..." (Genesis 3:4).

AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France – A French nun says she felt new inner strength and vitality as her Parkinson's disease suddenly disappeared in 2005 — a recovery the Vatican attributes to the miraculous intercession of Pope John Paul II.

Sister Marie Simon-Pierre, who works at a Paris maternity clinic, told reporters in a rare appearance Monday that she felt "reborn" on waking June 3, 2005 after she had prayed for healing to John Paul.

"There was a new strength inside me, and my body was rediscovering its vitality and fluidity," Simon-Pierre, appearing in good health, told reporters in the southern French city of Aix-en-Provence.

The 49-year-old nun — who has largely been shielded from the media — said she still sometimes talks to John Paul.

"For this news conference, I told him to stay right beside me!" said Simon-Pierre, who appeared smiling and wearing a white habit at the news conference.

Pope Benedict XVI has set May 1 as the date for his predecessor's beatification, a step toward possible sainthood.

Church authorities have studied Simon-Pierre's cure and determined it was inexplicable and due to the intercession of John Paul, who also suffered from Parkinson's. Benedict approved the miracle last week, paving the way for the beatification.

Simon-Pierre's healing came about two months after John Paul's death on April 2, 2005, at age 84. Soon before her mysterious recovery, she had asked to stop working, saying she was "ready to finish out her days in a wheelchair," her former mother superior recalled.

"When she came to ask me to replace her, I noticed that she was very worn out. I told her to wait. I told her that John Paul II hadn't had his last word on the subject," Sister Marie-Thomas recalled.

Question: Who is this Nun talking to if John Paul II is dead?
"For this news conference, I told him to stay right beside me!" said Simon-Pierre, who appeared smiling and wearing a white habit at the news conference.

Isn't it possible that Satan is still using the old trick which he used in Eden? the soul is immortal.
"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die..." (Genesis 3:4).

Note:"And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?" (Isaiah 8:19).

Christianity is not about miracles. That's why Jesus turned water into wine, walked on water, resurrected the dead, restored the sight to the blind, fed the 5000 with three loaves of bread, rebuked and exorcised devils, healed lepers and paralytics, calms the storm, resurrected, went through wall, and ascended to heaven. all these certainly do not attest to miracles in any way. thesy're every day events...

Prof Adei, u are a carnal m an. Continue to eat ur 'Ampesi' every morning b4 u go to work. U may look healthy , but spiritually, u are blind, wretched, naked and poor.

Let ur belly be ur God. When u lie on the bed of affliction, it will take ur confession and apology abt this foolish and nonsensical statement which is in contrat to what the LORD JESUS told us.

He said "These signs shall follow them that believe, in my Name they shall cast out devils, heal the sick.....". Prof. Adei, have u seen that u are a 'Taliban Pharasee' ? Nonsense.

Do ur filthy politics and be bewitched by a dwarf. Don't bring ur nonsense to were demons dare. Ur posture and look on TV typifies a complete mad man who is surprised at something. Carnal man. Repent and believe in miracles and wonders b4 u gret sick

The reason why there seem to be serious,deep-rooted lawlessness,endemic corruption,premeditated murder,armed robbery and other forms of evil in Ghana is that our law-making bodies don't change our laws,regulations,and the type of punishment given to people who violate our the country's laws.There should be harsh punishment to deter people from doing evil in Ghana.

Not only secular/political leaders but Christians as well, including Church leaders(Pastor) are having misplaced priorities. "Seek yea first the Kingdom of Heaven and it's righteousness, all others shall be added unto thee". It's very unfortunate that these days, 'Holiness' is not a prime feature in sermons.
