The presiding Bishop of Gospel Light International Church, Mathew Addae Mensah, has advised Kwabena Bonfeh alias Kabila who is in the Supreme Court fighting government for the setting up of the Hajj Board and the construction of national interdenominational Cathedral.
The Bishop says although Kabila has the constitutional right, he should have weighed the spiritual repercussion on him and his party CPP before taking such an action.
“Kabila and his socialist and communist colleagues should be reminded that what they seek to do is tantamount to fighting God.”
Bishop Addae Mensah quoted several Biblical texts to buttress his point. “Paul of Tausus tried it and he was told ”it is too hard to kick against the prick” (Acts 9:5 ) in the days of Nehemiah, Tobias and Sanbalat tried to stop the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem and they failed (Nehemiah 4: 7-8).
According to Bishop Addae Mensah, Britain who is the mother of secular democracy has Westminster Abbey as a national Cathedral for national religious events. “USA who pioneered separation of state from religion has a cathedral at the White House and National Cathedral at Washington, Russia the bedrock and cradle of Socialism and Communism which Kabila takes inspiration from, has Christ the Saviour Cathedral, the tallest Cathedral in the world,” he said.
“Remember in 2008 when candidate Nana Akufo Addo was seeking the presidency, he made a pledge among the clergies he met in my presence that one of the many dreams he has for Ghana is to build National Cathedral in honour of God if God gives him the presidency. The Hajj Board which was established by PDNC/NDC was instituted to solve pertinent problems which Ghanaian Moslems who undertake the Hajj went through as individuals,” he said.

IF AKKUFO ADDO CONTINUES WITH THE INTENTION TO BULID A NATIONAL CATHEDRAL WE SHALL SEE MORE OF ADDAI MENSAH'S IN THE SOCIETY. HE WILL RATHER INSPIRE FAKE WORSHIP IN GHANA. KABILA IS REALISTIC AND PEOPLE SHOULD STOP ATTACKING HIM. GOD SENT AMOS TO WARN KING OF ISRAEL OF EVIL IN THE KINGDOM. THE FAKE PROPHETS ATTACKED AMOS AND ASKED HIM TO GO TO JUDAH TO PROPHESY. THEY KING DELIGHTED IN FAKE PROPHESIES AND HE AND HIS FAKE PROPHETS WERE DESTROYED. WE PRAY THAT AKKUFFO ADDO WOULD BE MATURE AND DISCERNING ENOUGH TO SET HIMSELF FREE FROM THESE FAKE PROPHETS WHOM HE APPEARS TO BE INCLINED TO.
Kabila is modern day Tobias, let him do what ever he will, the Cathedral will will be built to the Glory of God.
Ray and such people who think like him. Your ndc always fail because of your ungodly behaviour and your communist ideology. The U.S.S.R failed because of their ungodly socialist and communist ideology even the Chinese have changed their perception of that ideology so I don't really know what those who call themselves socialist communist want in Ghana. Why do you entangle yourselves with something you don't believe in because you don't understand so can't implement it? They call themselves by that ideology but behave opposite hahahaha in fact some people are funny in Ghana. NPP believe in capitalism to develope in freedom they understand and believe in that ideology so are successful anytime they come to power,they put down good policies for the people to benefit and you see that in their lives where as the socialist policies are no where to be found during these communist st*pid ideology. Kabila is a drunkard who needs help, every drunkard doesn't know who he belongs so please men of God he needs deliverance help him.
I trust my Bishops to make the right decision and offer advise to his Excellency where need be. I remembered they rejected Mahama four wheel drives, asking him to put that money into more areas of humanitarian priority. I believe this time also you will offer the same advise to his Excellency. Let him understand that basic school buildings are delapidated without toilet and sanitation facilities, senior secondary schools are in shot supply to absorb all the children leaving JHS3, most church members are richly endowed and the church can take care of itself: many of the Universities in Ghana are even church owned, and the church can take care of its infrastructure needs. May be the Bishops should accept the support but channel it to the improvement of mission schools and church owned basic schools and hospitals in the rural areas. I know Nana would understand. Bishop Addae Mensah should therefore stop threathening Bomfeh and rather think development.
THE TIME HAS COME FOR ALL TO STOP THIS PETTINESS AND SELFISHNESS ESPECIALLY WE THE SO CALLED MEN OF GOD IN GHANA. WE HAVE TO GET OUR PRIORITY WRIGHT AS PEOPLE AND PUT OUR RESOURCES TO BETTER USE.ARE CHURCH BUILDING IN SHORTAGE IN GHANA?.YES WE CAN BUILD WORSHIP PLACES FOR ALL KIND OF GROUPS WHO BELIEVE IN ONE DENOMINATION OR THE OTHER BUT WE HAVE TO FIX CERTAIN IMPORTANT NEEDS OF OUR SOCIETY FIRST. LOOK AT THE STORY ABOUT THE 42 YEARS OLD ABOUNDAND CHILDREN HOSPITAL BUILDING AT KATH. THAT MONEY BEING USED TO BUILD THAT CATHEDRAL SHOULD BE PUT INTO THE COMPLETION OF THAT BUILDING.LOOK AROUND YOU,EVERYTHING THAT CONCERN THE POOR IS IN A MESS YET NOBODY THINK ABOUT THAT. IN ANY CASE WHO IS GOING TO BE THE MANAGERS OF THE CATHEDRAL?. THE FACT THAT THE PRESIDENT MADE A CAMPAIGN PROMISE TO BUILD A CATHEDRAL DOES NOT MEAN IT SHOULD BE DONE AHEAD OF MORE IMPORTANT NEEDS OF THE COUNTRY BECAUSE THE MEN OF GOD BROUGHT HIM TO POWER. I WISH KABILA WELL LET SEE WHAT THE COURT WILL SAY.
These were the same people who said Late Prof Mills has turned the Castle into a prayer camp. Now you're falling over each other to project yourselves. All that some of you did to Late Mills will be known soon.
