“Why should be wholeheartedly serve God? Is it very important?”
These questions were posed and discussed by Rev. Dr. Phughoto Sema, former ES WSBAK during the ‘Akutuku Hoho’ organized by WSBAK at Millennium Hall, Daniel village on Saturday.
According to the speaker, people were called to service by God to understand His will and serve wholeheartedly. To substantiate his point, Rev. Phughoto drew reference from 2 Corinthians 8:12 of the Bible, “For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.”
He said if a believer willingly gives God according to his/her capacity then only it was acceptable to the Lord and drove home the point on why wholehearted and sincere offering was important.
Rev. Phughoto expressed apprehension over the decreasing attendance in Churches and called upon church leaders and parents to work with renewed zeal to bring back the flock to the Lord.
He also lauded the initiative of the NBCC to start observing Persons with Disability Sunday on the third Sunday of November every year. He encouraged Churches to make provisions of wheelchairs, proper sound systems and translations for the hearing impaired. “In such a way, it will make everyone feel equal in the sight of the Lord,” he added.
Rev. Phughoto also touched upon the topic of clean election campaign and said that the initiative should start by the Church leaders from their own homes and lead the society.
The programme was attended by hundreds of Church leaders and believers.
