    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!

  • ARABA STAMP 11 years ago

    infact deeper life is a good church. they don,t advertise for themselves but their lives have won many people to christ through the blood of Jesus.

  • Dr Mensah Mends 11 years ago

    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 F ...

    Can any person save himself through works?

  • champion 11 years ago

    ALL THE PASTORS PRETENDING TO BE PERFORMING MIRACLES ARE EITHER ILLITERATES OR JSS DROP-OUTS. TB JOSHUA NEVER WENT TO SCHOOL. THEY ARE ALSO THE AZAA SAKAWA PROPHETS.

  • kwame kusi 11 years ago

    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.. ...

    Mental laziness is what make most Ghanaians believe in some of those nonsensical noise making spirituality!

  • DEACON 11 years ago

    FAKING MIRACLES IS VERY BAD. IT ATTRACTS IGNORANT PEOPLE BUT INTELLIGENT PEOPLE ARE TURNED OFF BY IT. EVENTUALLY, IT HARMS THE CHURCH AND THE IMAGE OF CHRISTIANS.

    THE PROBLEM IS POVERTY AND JSS EDUCATIION.

  • Yaw Adu 11 years ago

    They believe in miracle but do not propagate it. Churches don't advertise themselves as being miracle performers.They emphasis on the gospel and that your belief shall reveal the miracle.

    Prof Adei is right. Our lives as Christians should not be fixated on miracles; but on Christ. The problem with miracles is that it can be duplicated by Satan to win followers. Jesus has warned us of the deceptions of the last ...
