Apostle Paul not the stinking paul out there, said something in the book of Corinthians about himself; it goes like this, not to compromise the integrity of the gospel, he resorted not to get his earns meal from his ministry, normally humans get their income from what they do. Apostle Paul was working outside the ministry for food. He could have made monies to build big mansions, horses and boats for his travels, yet there was none like that in his profile. The words that the present false teachers and pastors are speaking of comes mostly from him and they try to make it looks like come from them. Like what I am doing, I explain irrespective of who I rebuked or corrected and that is the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Social security numbers and house addresses are not a programme from Jesus Christ or the Almighty God, it is mere men designed and it is not from bible. Therefore does not count as far as bible is concern.What is important is the 666 and the little lamb. These two identifies the beast from the sea. Where as the beast from the land are 666/little one(lamb) who are suppose to be in relationship, which land are we talking about ?, from the sea which is USA(OSA) the most powerful nation on earth.The prophecy speaks of all the powerful nations which have existed since the beginning of the bible. This was a simple explaination to the prophecy. Just identify the 666 to find the lamb and the two gives you the nation which is to be the seventh superpower and six super-empire. 666 was the most powerful man on earth and so the lamb. The lamb was little one, as the old testament identifies it, because he was used by false prophets and teachers to lie to the world to destroy a nation with the excuses of the leader being brutal dictator, who had killed innocent people and he turned around doing the same thing, making himself the political lord of all nations. Infact the killings of the lamb(political lord) was more than the killings of the sacrificial lamb. The actions of sacrificial lamb was in a small geographical area against dissident of his government; where as the actions of the political god was global against anybody who disagree with his decisions.The "buy and sell" is just about the "world trade center" which was erased by the wicked servant of God. I used the wicked servant of God, since the world is no longer in the hands of Lucifer. In AD, everything on earth has been placed under the sweet name, the son of Almighty God(Jesus Christ) or under the sun of equator(Reagan) and they are all in the spirit realm. The spiritual false prophet MLK was to guide the actions of the political god,lamb or lord, with his, I have a dream speech, which he failed to listen anyway, I remember some cathechism were protesting against the war as unjust war. Not being sure, I stayed quite to see what was to come out of the whole ordeal.This is from the servant of the Lord of lords in glorification of King of kings, Jesus Christ Amen. They placed me in it to become the replacement of MLK physically, too bad, I am born again, with the blood of Jesus Christ, and so cannot be a prophet or against Jesus Christ, neither have no wounds in my hands,not born in a manja, but gospel explainer. Isn't this cool? Where is my violations reparation, president of USA? Civil/human right abusers right in your noses and you are keeping mute, lawful nation?. There are two persons who should be identify by the government of USA(OSA), the person who planned this in 1992 and 1995 before I embezzled mail and the person who carried out the burning of my brain in 1996. These two might have a relationship and they are the one and one of two to come and came. The initial was the false prophet living today physically and the devil to go to Jerusalem and solve all problems for the second coming of the Lord of lords is the one with the crystal ball to burn brains. This person was telling the world he is infallible human right from his childhood and never sin before to have the authority to burn brains of other sinful human being. Moreso to ignore good summaritan and the cross of Jesus Christ and his salvation mission to create his own for the world call crystal ball. I thought Christianity was to continue what Jesus Christ and his apostles left of. The meaning of embezzlement is becoming irresponsible not necessary stealing. The book of Zakaria talks about thieves, meaning stealing.

Do not forget, the old testament uses little one, whiles the new testament uses lamb. The old testament uses jehovah or yawah, the new testament uses Jesus Christ. They are the same.

Clergyman, FYI: a pastor is a spiritual counselor for those under his charge. Note the first paragraph of this homily: "Pastor Boakye Emmanuel Sarpong, Minister of Christ Embassy Church, at Agona in the Ashanti Region, has advised Christians to allow the word of God to serve as a guiding principle in their various fields of endeavour." Where in this article does he "talk down" to his audience/readers?

I will butress his remark with a couple of texts and a comment.
"With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee (Psalms 119:10-11).
Christians do not obey the law to be saved (Ephesians 2:8-10); we obey the law because we are saved.
"For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith (Galatians 6:8-10).

No one argues with that line of thought. However, when those preaching the gospel turn the Good word into pelf- oriented professions, people get disenchanted. It is true that religion drives a large portion of our actions, but today’s obnoxious trifecta of corruption; Politicians, Chiefs and Pastors have persistently thrown the masses into diarray. The wanton arrogance and conceited demeanors of our leaders make one wonder whether they are Ghanaians in the first place. Lucky Dube of blessed memory made this pitch look easy with his resurrection of the Biblical maxim “Blessed is the hand that giveth than the one that taketh” Unfortunately, the gradual but systematic erosion of the peoples’ power by the putrid status quo is turning Ghana’s fledgling democracy turning into a plutocracy. Words like the one rendered by Pastor Emmanuel Sarpong have totally lost their meaning because of the halo of corruption that emanates from the panjandrums of our society.

Colossians 3:12-17 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Although the shepherds in Ghana may not set a good example for the flock under their charge, the judgment going on in heaven now is not for Ghanaian pastors, but for God's people (church-1 Peter 4:17;Rev 12:17). Please note what the Lord is saying to us today: "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else"(Isaiah 45:22 ). Let's remember that we will be judged individually, not as a group. Note 2 Corinthians 5:10 : For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Pastoral example or not, the devil is man's enemy and he wants the previlege of leading men away from God(Gen3:15). Note he deceives the whole world: "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him"(Revelation 12:9).
Satan’s enmity against the human race is kindled, because, through Christ, they are the objects of God’s love and mercy. He desires to thwart the divine plan for man’s redemption, to cast dishonor upon God, by defacing and defiling his handiwork; he would cause grief in Heaven, and fill the earth with woe and desolation. And he points to all this evil as the result of God’s work in creating man. {GC88 506.1}

In the anti-typical Day of Atonement in which we live, only those who have have accepted the grace of God, the second covenant ratified at Calvary, are considered for judgment. All others will have their cases determined later.
Judgment begins in the house of God before Jesus comes for his own.
1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
