Live holy lives, keep faith in God… Christians told
The President of the Leaders Digest, Dr Spencer Duncan has said that many profess Christians are Bible carrier believers but not true Christians who pray and believe in the word of God.
Explaining, he said “the bible carriers always carry the Holy Book on their heads to portray that they know the bible and are seriously in tune with God but are just empty barrels who cannot quote a scripture and show no respect to the Almighty God.”
“Today, we do not have many Christians and even Men of God in the Christendom who can say ‘it is written’ just as Jesus Christ said to Satan. Some just paraphrase the scripture to distort the content, pollute and confuse people and even add things God has not said” he said.
He said the situation had churned out many false teachers, pastors, apostles and especially Prophets taking advantage of the professed Christian who had also failed to study the bible to know its content.
Dr Duncan said this when he preached on the topic “Commanding the Supernatural” at the Mega Kharis International Ministries at Adentan in Accra recently.
He noted that the Bible had given power and authority to man to command things to happen which did not come automatically but through hard work and by having faith in God.
He said it was the grace of God that controlled the supernatural world and it was the spirit-filled believer who had the ability to understand what went on in the spiritual realm.
He said that prayer was the most powerful tool, force or weapon on earth where a believer could be in one place and impact situations around the world by simply asking God to intervene.
He advised members of the church to take time and study the bible to enable them pray effectively, live holy lives for the Holy Spirit to fill them, have faith in God and above all walk in love and humility.
To the men of God, he said it was not the level of shouting that showed their level of anointing but rather the grace of God and their level of understanding the word of God.

Ahyiresu and Abofrem, two quiet communities in the Atwima Mponua District, have been shaken to the core by a chilling midnight drama that reads like a nightmare.
A pastor and a young mother stand accused of attempting to bury a five‑month‑old baby girl alive, a crime that has ignited outrage and disbelief across the township.
According to police, Apostle Richmond Akwasi Frimpong, 36, Head Pastor of the Anointed Grace Prayer Ministry at Kuffour Camp, conspired with his uncle Emmanuel Appiah, 53, and the child’s mother, 23‑year‑old Beatrice Agyapomaa, to dispose of the infant, Anaya Achiaa, under the cover of darkness.
A fourth suspect, Emmanuel Donkor, remains on the run.
The suspects were caught near a refuse dump around 10 pm on April 9, 2026, after a vigilant resident, Akwasi Twezor, noticed their suspicious movements.
When confronted, they claimed the child was already dead and had palace approval for burial. But Twezor’s instincts proved right—the baby was still alive, gasping faintly for breath.
Chief Linguist, Nana Yaw Badu, later confirmed that Frimpong had misled him earlier in the evening, securing permission for burial by falsely declaring the child dead.
The infant was rushed to the Abofrem Clinic, where she is now responding well to treatment. Police described her as “very beautiful.”
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Evelyn Yitamkey, Commander of DOVVSU in Bibiani, confirmed that the suspects have been provisionally charged.
Frimpong faces attempted murder and conspiracy charges, while Agyapomaa and Appiah are charged with conspiracy and abetment.
They were remanded by the Bibiani Circuit Court, presided over by Judge Frank Asiedu Nimako, to assist investigations.
The docket has been forwarded to the Attorney General’s Department for advice, ASP Yitamkey indicated.
The attempted crime has provoked fury among residents, many suspecting ritual motives aimed at bolstering the pastor’s influence.
Crowds attempted to attack the suspects outside court, but police intervention prevented mob justice.
The Assembly Member for Ahyiresu, Yusuf Suleiman, has assured residents that justice will be pursued swiftly.

The forecourt of the African University of Communications and Business (AUCB) in Accra came alive on Friday with colour, creativity and innovation, as Level 300 students transformed the space into a lively exhibition of ideas.
Under the theme “Building meaningful brands beyond the logo,” the students invited patrons into a world where ordinary products were reimagined through storytelling, design and purpose.
From scented candles to innovative food concepts, each stand told a unique story, one that went beyond aesthetics to capture identity, value and human connection.
For many of the students, the event was more than just an academic exercise; it was a moment to dream out loud.
Guided by their lecturer, Peter Wonders, they explored what it truly means to build a brand in today’s competitive world where trust, consistency and experience matter just as much as logos and slogans.
Chairman of the occasion, Nana Kum Gyata VI, in his remarks said a brand is what people say about you when you are not present.
At the end of the presentations, awards were presented to deserving groups with Vida Nyaneba emerging as the overall best branding student.
