Pastor Mensah Otabil, the founder and leader of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), has sent a daring message to Ghanaian pastors who assert that they receive revelations from God regarding individuals. The man of God firmly said that God no longer discloses mysteries to anyone in a recent sermon to his church that was caught on camera and has since gone viral. "Divine revelations have ceased," he declared. Pastor Otabil went on to say that God is not supplementing His Word with new insights.
Such a declaration has been made by Pastor Mensah Otabil before. He has repeatedly insisted that pastors who forecast that the NPP or NDC will win elections are only making predictions and are not, as they frequently assert, sharing messages from God. "God is no longer giving people answers to puzzles. I'll say it again: God doesn't give people answers to mysteries. He is not communicating with anyone through revelations. The revelation of God is comprehensive. He's not adding to it or taking anything away from it," he said.
The elections in Ghana are scheduled for December 7th, and a number of pastors have already published their "revelations" about the results. Prominent figures who have predicted an NDC victory include Pastor Isaac Owusu Bempah, Prophet Badu Kobi, Prophet Opambour, and Prophet Nigel Gaisie. Prophet Victor Kusi Boateng, on the other hand, has predicted that the NPP will win. Pastor Mensah Otabil challenges the veracity of these revelations, contending that if God is still speaking, the sermons of the pastors shouldn't contradict one another.
Ghanaians' responses to his comments are as follows: Kobbie, Nana Owusu What's going on in Christianity right now, eh? It is wrong for people to attack one another. Amoako, Richard How is he aware of this? Was it revealed to him by God? How can he be sure if not? Ansah Eugene It's above the bar. It doesn't follow that God doesn't communicate with His prophets, His people, or His children if He doesn't speak to him. No one can stop God from speaking to His children since He is all-powerful.
