CALL FOR RENEWAL OF LICENCES FOR PASTORS (PAGE 23, JAN 6, 2010)

The Christian Council of Ghana (CCG) has been urged to put measures in place to ensure the renewal of licences of pastors after two years of operations.
This is expected to help check charlatans who are misconducting themselves.
The call was made by the General Overseer of the Great Solution Centre, Rev. Seth Nana Opoku, who was speaking at the ordination ceremony of 15 pastors last Saturday.
He attributed the cause of pastors fighting each other to a lack of mentoring by the council and the love of money.
He advised the pastors to desist from using big titles, since they meant nothing in the work of God. He appealed to them to lead simple lives to attract the blessing of God upon their lives.
Rev. Opoku urged the pastors to advertise God but not to commercialise him for their own selfish desires.
The ordination was done by a former CCG General Secretary, Rev. Dr Samuel Asore, who advised the ministers to walk their talks and depend on God at all times.
He also appealed to them to desist from living lives that would bring disgrace to the church and upon themselves in the future.
