Men of God should not try to mould people with their own ideas, inclinations and practices but through the knowledge in the word of God, Bishop Samuel Sarpong Kwakwa has cautioned.
He said most men of God and for that matter Christians only believed in God but did not know Him personally in their lives.
Bishop Kwakwa, who is the founder of the Reigning Power Gospel Church International, gave the caution in an interview with The Spectator on the topic “Becoming a strong Christian” at Koforidua.
He said the world would be a safe haven for mankind if Christians would take time to study the word of God and know His ways.
According to him, all the social vices had come about due to the failure of the men of God to play their role responsibly.
He said many people had believed and accepted Christ as their personal savior but have not searched to know Him.
He said those who knew their God did not collect bribe, or continue in sin adding that any “Christian who knows his or her God never mingles himself or herself with things that are not right.”

Deputy National Women Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mimi Duah, has openly declared her support for Mavis Hawa Koomson as the next National Women’s Organiser of the party.
In a statement endorsing Hawa Koomson’s candidature, Ms Duah outlined four key reasons why she believes the former MP and Minister of State is best placed to lead the party’s women’s wing.
According to her, Hawa Koomson is a motherly figure who rose from the grassroots and is widely noted for her forgiving nature and ability to foster unity.
“She is a true grassroots mother who easily forgives, fosters unity, provides guidance and arbitrates to ensure all aggrieved party women are brought on board to ensure a unified women’s wing,” she stated.
Ms Duah also pointed to Hawa Koomson’s vast experience, having served as a Constituency Women’s Organiser, Member of Parliament and Minister of State, noting that the experience positions her to provide effective leadership as National Women’s Organiser.
She further described Hawa Koomson as capable of making the women’s wing resourceful, through her extensive network and business contacts, to lobby for logistics, training and financial support for women organisers at all levels.
Lastly, she said the NPP as an opposition party needs fearless, bold and assertive leadership at the women’s front to inspire regional, constituency and polling station women organisers as the party reorganises towards the 2028 elections.
“We need a Women’s Organiser who has been tested, who is bold, who understands grassroots women, and who can lead us to victory in 2028. Hon. Mavis Hawa Koomson is that leader,” she stressed.
