University Don appeals to the Church to purge itself

Techiman (B/A), Aug. 28, GNA - Dr Daniel Bour, a Lecturer at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Kumasi, has expressed regret at the number of scandals and corruptions that have engulfed the Christian community all over the world in recent times. He said the Church that should be the bastion of sanity; morality and uprightness in the society had rather become an institution of corruption and scandals.

Dr Bour said this at the 21st Annual Congress of the Ghana National Association of Adventist Students (GNAAS) at Techiman.

The five-day Congress that is being attended by over 400 delegates drawn from the whole country is under the theme: "Curbing Indiscipline, The Role of Adventist Students."

Dr Bour said despite years of ''geometric rise in social theories and models aimed at solving man's problems on earth, social, economic and political problems keep rising''.

He appealed to the Church to purge itself of the numerous scandals and provide the direction towards solving problems.

Mr James Kofi Adusei, National President of Ghana National Association of Adventist Students, said there was the need for Christians to lead the Vice President's crusade against indiscipline. 28 Aug. 03
