He gave us the responsibility to take control of the earth. As Christians we have dual responsibility taking care of God\u2019s creation and being poised to do good for the society,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Last year Apostle Eric Nyamakye\u00a0lamented the wave of corruption in Ghana despite the huge Christian population in the country.<\/p>\n<p>He said the church in Ghana appears to be focusing on things other than the core objective of leading souls to Christ.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHowever, in spite of the presence of these churches in our societies, Christianity has not yet impacted society adequately in a way that eliminates endemic corruption and rampant social evil to reflect the huge presence of Christians in the country,\u201d Apostle Nyamekye noted in his 5-year strategic vision dubbed \u201cPossessing the Nations\u201d for the Church of Pentecost.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He said the church under his leadership will focus on building the character of members that will please God.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cAs a church, it is time for us to focus a lot more attention on the practice of being God\u2019s representative on earth. The Church has to focus on being salt and light in this perverse world in order to transform the spiritual, social, economic and political fabric of the nations. I believe that the destiny of our nations is in the hands of the Churches\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"\/>  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chairman of the Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye has charged all Christian professionals not to neglect their values and principles in their workplaces.
