Pastors in the country have been sternly cautioned against coming out with false prophecies regarding the particular political party or person that would win the impending general elections.
The Head Pastor of the Faith Outreach Ministries, John Kwaku Appiah, said itwould not be in the interest of the country for Men of God to foretell the outcome of the December polls.
In his New Year message to his church and the entire country, the servant of God said the practice could disturb the peace in the country.
According to him, there would be tension in the country if pastors begin to predict the winner of the elections, a situation that would not augur well for mother Ghana.
He admonished pastors to use their platform to preach peace and unity among Ghanaians, stressing that the polls is very crucial.
Pastor Kwaku Appiah warned the populace, notably pastors to shun acts that could jeopardize Ghana’s peace.
He also admonished the citizenry to eschew unnecessary political debates at public places, warning that such acts could also result in fighting and eventually civil strife.
The Man of God also appealed to Ghanaians, especially Christians not to stay away during the Election Day, noting that every eligible voter of the land should be part of the decision process.
Pastor Kwaku Appiah warned the electorate not to accept monies from politicians to vote for them, saying such acts would prevent Ghana from getting a suitable president that could transform the country.
The Head Pastor of Faith Outreach Church condemned politics of insults, which according to him, could cause chaos.
Pastor Kwaku Appiah, who was delivering a sermon on theme, ‘Yes You Can,’ encouraged the people to repose their trust in the Lord.
