Archbishop Charles Agyinasare, founder and senior pastor at the Perez Chapel International, has asked Christians to live noble and honest lives, a duty that the celebration of Christmas places on all.
He said the festive season must re-waken society on the qualities Joseph, the father of Jesus Christ exhibited where he resolved to be noble and not disgrace the Virgin Mary even after knowing that she was pregnant.
Delivering a Sunday service sermon on the eve of Christmas at the Perez Dome in Accra, the Archbishop, who raised concerns about having people wanting to do what was right and just, said: “These days we don’t have too many noble men.”
His sermon, which dwelt largely on family creation and togetherness, urged married men and potential husbands to desist from the disgrace they put their wives and wives-to-be through when the women cheated.
“Unfortunately, there are guys telling others the number of women they have slept with. They think it is pride, they are rather cheap. Joseph didn’t say anything about Mary to people. He was a nobleman,” he said.
“I am not saying the women must be indulging in promiscuity, however, if you are a man and your wife did that and you don’t love her anymore, don’t beat her, let her go in peace, ” the Archbishop added.
He urged young women to overlook their wealth, social and economic status and accept young hardworking men who had dreams and vision.
The Archbishop said: “This Christmas, if the young men come with marriage proposals, accept them, help them with the processes. It is not wrong to support the guy to marry you.”
Narrating his experience when he met his wife, the Archbishop said he bought six pieces of clothes, had two from his wife and another two from his sisters for his marriage.
He said his wife also gave him her jewelries to be used as part of the marriage items.
He said it was unfortunate that several young men and women looked down on their partners because of their financial background.
“…When I met my wife, I could only take her from Akyem Oda to Asamankese, but today, I have taken her to Japan, Hawaii, Singapore among others,” the Archbishop said.

Guys, this man said a lot of things so you couldn't find anything beneficial or good out of the passage but only insult. mo w) problem papa
Do you se yourself noble? Tweaaaaa!!!!
The church has failed and christianity has failed to hold corrupt government officials accountable. They often give the lame excuse that they're into ministry and not politics! How can you neglect that which affects everything and sets the agenda for everything in the country? They should wait till their churches become empty as a result of members struggling to meet the most basic of needs desert them. How the economy of the nation functions affects how the economy of the church functions.
You can afford it because innocent/poor people who does not understand their own life style are paying for it rather than investing in their own future. Poor church members and I am so so sorry for the so called members
Hmmmmm....asem oooo! Where did your miracle service go?
This man is not credible himself.
