Only hypocrites ask pastors to desist from politics - Owusu Bempah
Founder and leader of Glorious Word Ministry
International, Reverend Dr. Isaac Owusu Bempah,
has described as hypocrites those who tell pastor
to desist from talking politics.

He explained that those people will cast
insinuations and insult pastors for making a
declaration from God on politics, yet expect them
(pastors) to condemn acts of political violence
and pray to avert calamities on the nation.

“If that is not hypocrisy, then I do not know
what it actually is”, he added.
The founder made these statements in a sermon to
his congregation last Sunday on the theme; Men of
God and Governance.

Rev. Bempah stated that since God has a stake in
choosing a leader for the country, men of God
cannot be separated from politics.

What people should know, he said, is that they do
not speak for any political party but only come
out with the message of God which they do not have
any control over.

“Left to me alone, I would I have kept quiet but
I cannot rebel against God so His message pierces
and pushes me to speak up”, he indicated.

He sought to know the relevance of Peace and
Christian Council whose members are mostly
religious leaders and have the agenda to ensure
peace prevails in the country.

He admonished those that see messages from pastors
with a political spectacle to begin to realize
that, without the use of them (pastors) and the
Bible in governance, the country and the world has
no better future.
