Emmanuel, I sense that you or your dad was 'sabotaged' in the church. How did you feel?What were you needing and what was your request to the church at that time? Another thing, you need to clarify :church of christ; wolves in sheep clothes which is generalization compared to some of them in your article. Judging and classifying people promotes violence.

Your allegation is left wild without any concrete evidence to substantiate the story. Why generalize on one incidence that allegedly happened to your father?

Very interesting but destructive article to write , the church is a wide fellowship therefore to cite a single incident which occurred in a single congregation as a basis for condemning the entire churches of Christ makes me sad.
In any case since you said you have more to write on the church, I will wait to read them before commenting. But whiles waiting I would like to ask, if you did made any effort to contact the operators of the clinic? Surely, if a wrong has been done there are internal processes which you could have followed to resolve any matter. Whatever may have happen surely may have hurt you, which is understandle; but the platform you've chosen to try the case is my concern!
As you stated, envy, jealousy etc are all works of the flesh and as humans those who acted in the way you described have a long way to go in terms of Christian growth.
There are good preachers and many good things are happening in the church throughout the country , this isolated case cannot negate the collective good. It cannot and should not be used as THE measure of the efforts of the church nationwide.
Good friend, I write as a concern member of the church of Christ, Ghana and would like to read the rest of your story.
God bless the church of Christ , Ghana.

The offensive brother has exposed himself big time and unnecessarily. The fact is that if you thought, actions and perception of Christ is not deep and profound, This is eactly what happens to you. Now in anger and frustration, he is calling everybody and every preacher names. I don't believe one act of wrongdoing by one person should bring the entire church to the level of disgrace he is trying to bring the entire church in Ghana.
Clearly, this backslider has not exhausted any process towards solving the problem between his father and the preacher he has referred to. He must consult some elders of the local assembly or elders from other branches around them to intervene and solve the problem. This problem is too small to bring the entire church down in this manner. It's not fair to the rest of the membership. By his decision to publish this in this medium, he has only succeeded in embarrassing the body of Christ. If I were him, I would have humble myself, apologise to the entire brotherhood in Ghana and ask God for forgiveness. But he is not me, he won't see it as I see it, and this is the problem. May God have mercy!!!

How our leaders sometimes handle issues of such is a big problem and had cause serious prolong problems in church which needs to tackled with wisdom.
Most of our preaches and leaders lack conflict management skills.

Look at how u are bringing the name of the Lord's church to the gutters just because of your father. If your father is just as u describe him then I tell he will regret having u as his son after reading this. Or do I hve to blve that u and your father always put ur interest over that of God? Then what the preachers are doing is not a sabotage but setting the record straight.
Pray for forgiveness

Been reading your articles but this one is way far from the truth. You only based your story on just one issue that happened when u were a teenager which is not fair, u have gone too far calling them sheeps in wolves clothing. The church of christ paved way for my parents nd 4 siblings in a single room to be who we are today, that church schooled, fed nd clothed me. It's quiet disappointing to hear this from u cos u didn't even state any proof to back up what u said nd just for a second compare the church to what we got around now nd judge. Smh

You are closing your mind against him because of the benevolence that had change your future to a better one if I may put it.
He is also voicing out because of some experience that may have put his family in a difficulties.
You and Bombande have the same experience ,yours is of a gain while his is a loss.
your experience in the church back days has bought you joy today,his experience in the church as a teenager has brought him sorrows.
In conclusion ,we are all not happy about this issue.
This is the time our church leaders must be conscious about how to manage conflict effectively to prevent any future repercussions.

The heading of your your story condemns all Church Of Christ Preachers because a few of them have hurt you. Be careful.

If you're a columnist or whatever you need to write something that makes sense. If you want to be a good columnist, I suggest that you try this technique; OBSERVING, FEELING, NEEDING and REQUESTING.
