The Rev. Eastwood Anaba, President of Eastwood Anaba Ministries (EAM) says that the birth of Jesus Christ is a perfect gift, which should unite Christians around the world.
He said that the greatest gift of the season was the gift of God’s only son to the world, “On Christmas day we get used to receiving gifts, so today can be a day of gifts, a day in which your life will change” .
Reverend Anaba, who is also the Founder of Fountain Gate Chapel and Senior Pastor of Desert Pastures, a branch of the Church in Bolgatanga, had this to say when he delivered a sermon on the topic, “A Son Is Given,” to his congregation on Christmas day.
He said that the life of Jesus Christ was a model for how Christians should grow as sons and daughters of God. “We are born again, that is the beginning, but then there is a lot of work we must do on ourselves to be charitable to others.
He said that were it not for events like Christmas and Easter, among others, the secular world would have killed Christianity by now, “Events like Christmas and Easter force the world to remember that Christ was born.
“For us as believers, let’s focus on that. The important thing is that Jesus was born, came into the world, died, saved the world, will return to rapture the Church. Those are the most important things, ”emphasized the senior pastor.
Reverend Anaba admonished Christians to use special occasions like Christmas to put aside their differences and unite as families, churches and in their workplaces, adding that his Christmas message to his members was that “We have been given a son”.
He expressed concern about some pastors who use their pulpits to fight each other and even spread it to social media, “And they are happy to attack each other. You will never hear Muslims getting involved like that openly, no matter what happens. ”
Reverend Anaba prayed that whatever gift God gives to his congregation, apart from Jesus Christ, would solve the problems in their lives and lead them to new gifts and everything they always wanted to be in life.
He said that God’s love was the most powerful in the world and that it was because of His love that He gave His only son and added that “Whatever gift God gives you, let it be according to the pattern of what God gave you in the salvation. ”
