In his recent sermon, founder and leader of Perez Chapel International, Archbishop Charles Agyinasare, has entreated Christians to know who they are and let go of worries about being hurt by any oppressor.
According to him, anyone who accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and savior has a protective covering, thus is not affected by any attack.
“The blessing of Abraham, ‘I will make your name great so that you can be a blessing’. And take the verse three, it says, ‘and I will bless anybody who blesses you and curse anyone that curses you’.
“Once I become a Christian, you make a mistake if you curse me. What is a curse? A curse is an invocation of spiritual forces to do you harm. So, if God says anybody who curses you, he will curse. Then anybody who pours libations and mentions your name, invoking spiritual forces against you,” he said.
He added: “What that person is doing is that they are activating a spiritual law, against themselves and their families… if they take a calabash filled with palm wine or a glass filled with schnapps or ‘akpeteshi’, once they pour it and call your name, they have open a spiritual portal to fight them.
“If the world knew who we are and what we have once we become Christians… you don’t joke with a child of God.”
Archbishop Agyinasare’s sermon comes at a time when he is yet to meet with Nogopko chiefs after describing the town as “demonic headquarters”.
The traditional authorities issued a 14-day ultimatum on June 2 for the Archbishop to appear before them but the man of God failed to meet with them.
