Jesus Has Promised Prosperity and Persecution By Mrs. Gifty A. Ofei Badu (BNWC Pastor’s Wife) Main Texts: Acts 5:40-42, Mark 10:29, 30 Passage for Study Acts 1 - 5 The series of events that led the apostles to rejoice in being whipped and threatened for the sake of the gospel are remarkable: Jesus commands the disciples to stay at Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit Peter addresses the onlookers after the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, and baptizes 3000 men, because they received Power. They spoke boldly and did many signs and wonders. Peter heals the cripple at the temple gate and this raises a lot of controversies. Peter addresses the crowd about Jesus, who was sent down to us as our savior, but they through the influence of their leaders. He tells them it was not too late for them to repent of their sins and be forgiven The Sanhedrin is worried because the apostles are preaching about the resurrected Christ and many ...

Your Ability to Give Has Got Nothing to Do with How Much You Have By Deacon Peter Ennin, (BNWC Children Ministry Leader) MEMORY VERSE And now, brothers, we want you to know about the grace that God has given the Macedonian churches. Out of the most severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. For I testify that they gave us much as they were able and beyond their ability entirely on their own. (2 Corinthians 8:1-3 NIV) TEXT: JOHN 12:1-8 Apostle Paul writing from Macedonia hoped that news of the generosity of these churches (i.e. churches at Philippi, Thessalonica and Berea) would encourage the Corinthian believers and motivate them to solve their problems and unite in fellowship. During his third missionary journey, Paul had collected money for the poor believers in Jerusalem which they had sacrificially (deep from poverty) given more than Paul expected although they were poor themselves. One of the thin...

Turning Away From Doing Things Our Way To Doing Things God's Way By Bro. Seth Arthur (BNWC Youth Leader) “And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way. 5 And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread. And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much p...

Seeing Beyond the Obvious Makes You Go Beyond Where You Are By Deacon Felix Kwasitsu (BNWC Witness Leader) with additional notes by Ps. S. A. Ofei Badu Main Passage: 2Kings 2:1-14 [Psalm 119:18] Open my eyes, so that I may see the wonderful truths in your law. God wanted to show Elisha what HE is is going to do in his life so HE opened his eyes and he saw. When the LORD was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were on their way from Gilgal. Elijah said to Elisha, “Stay here; the Lord has sent me to Bethel.” But Elisha said, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel. (2 Kings 2:1,2) Elisha clinged onto Elijah and advanced to Bethel with him. Wherever you have gotten to in life, you still can go further, for there is something good ahead. If you are not careful you might be content with where you are and say "Where I have gotten to is good and I can rest". But if God opens your eyes you...

By Elder Emmanuel Asante Gyimah (Presiding Elder) Today’s sermon I would like to focus on forgiveness. Many Christians find it difficult to forgive those who wrong them. Most Christians think that forgiveness is a choice, therefore one can decide to forgive other or not. We always pray for forgiveness but we are not always ready to forgive others. This is not biblical. Our Lord Jesus told us in Matthew chapter 6: 14 – 15 For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your heavenly Father will not forgive your sins. Jesus told a story about forgiving people: Peter came to Jesus and asked, Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times? Jesus answered, I tell you, not seven times, but seventy seven times. Then Jesus started the story about what will happen in the kingdom of heaven. Now the story, there was a king who wanted t...
