The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Citi FM and Citi TV, Samuel Attah-Mensah, who gave further details of the exhibition, said:

“We are talking about products that we make as Ghanaians. We do have a lot of products in Ghana, but at times the outlet to create awareness is what we lack.

Let your faith in Christ reflect in daily lives …Christians told

Christians have been urged to demonstrate a living faith in Jesus Christ by allowing their confession of Him as Lord and Saviour to reflect in their daily lives.

According to the Kaneshie District Pastor of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana (EPCG), Rev. Dzidzor Nathaniel Affram, a genuine Christian’s confession should go beyond words and be demonstrated through obedience to God, love for others and service to the Church.

He made the call at the 40th anniversary remembrance service for the late Wesley Kwasi Kwadzo at the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana, Maranatha Congregation at Awudome Avenui in the Volta Region.

Speaking on the theme, “The Church Built on a Living Confession,” Rev. Affram said life would continually present challenges capable of testing Christians’ faith, making it necessary for believers to hold firmly to their confession that Jesus Christ is Lord.

He explained that accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour required Christians to live according to His teachings, stressing that their faith must be evident in their conduct.

“A living confession listens to God and not man,” he said, urging Christians to remain obedient to God even when faced with difficulties and pressures.

Rev. Affram further encouraged the congregation to care for vulnerable people and demonstrate concern for others, adding that such acts were practical expressions of Christian faith.

He also urged Christians to identify and use their God-given gifts to build the Church.

He said every member of the Church had a role to play and cautioned Christians against looking down on others because of their status or abilities.
