General Overseer of Christ Chosen Church of God (CCCG) World-wide, Most Senior Apostle Joshua Osasuyi, has enjoined Christians, irrespective of their denomination to cultivate the attitude of offering thanks to God for his immeasurable protection.
Osasuyi, who spoke through Pastor Sunday Okpeye in a message at the Children’s Ingathering Harvest of CCCG, Ihimwinrin Branch I in Benin City, urged Christians to be humble and appease God with thanksgiving. In a text titled, “Thanksgiving” from Luke 17:12-19, he noted that selfishness and disobedience are obstacles that stalls the blessings from God. He therefore urged the congregation to shun acts that promote ignorance of the scriptures, saying that they account for the prevalence of decadence in the society. Osasuyi also charged Christian parents to be committed to the proper upbringing of their children and wards as commanded by the scriptures in order to make a better society. He described kids as true gifts from God, and urged the congregation not to spare the rod, rather, to openly rebuke their wards whenever they deviate from the scriptural perspective.
