Reverend Sam Korankye Ankrah Apostle General of the Royalhouse Chapel International, has decried the increasing infiltration of the church by charlatans and urged Christians to hold on to the word of God.
“These days you see all kinds of things and charlatans holding the bible and doing all kinds of things in the name of God.”
Rev. Ankrah therefore appealed to the Christians to learn the word of God adding: “If you know the word nobody can take it away from you.”
He was speaking at the launch of the Christ Apostolic Church International Centenary celebration held at the Accra International Conference Centre.
The celebration which was on theme: “100 years of impacting the world through Pentecostalism,” saw the launch of the church’s logo.
Rev Ankrah who spoke on behalf of the Ghana Pentecostal and Charismatic Council also admonished Christians to hold on to their faith and ensure that their lives “ do not ridicule Christianity”.
On the CACI celebrations, Rev Ankrah noted that a nation that could not remember its history was not worth celebrating saying “it’s only history that tells where we have come from and where we are going”.
He said 100 years of Pentecostalism connoted the sacrifice made by the church’s Founder, the late Apostle P.N. Anim who was prayerful and walked in the power of God.

I have seen Korankye Ankrah collecting money in church..it is as if the people owe him..and he is so disrespectful and brash about it...You may speak English, massa but you are all milking the people of God for personal gain..You tell people bring your money and trust God to take care of you, while you take care of yourself with all the money you collect..people sit in church, so poor with no-one to help them and you take the little they have...Shame on you and your like.
@ Kwesi, Exactly my thoughts...I agree with you 100%
I salute the Christ Apostolic Church, whose founder, Apostle Peter Anim Newman, easily passes as the father of pentecostalism in Ghana. As for the concerns of Rev. Korankye Ankrah,the point is that he and his ilk are partly to blame for the present state of affairs because of the kind of gospel they have preached over the years. They have not shied away from flaunting their material wealth before all and sundry on TV. He says without compunction on TV that he has a policy of sending his children on holidays abroad. How many of his church members are able to live that lifestyle? How is he able to sustain that lifestyle? The so-called " charlatans" are only trying to mimic him and his kind, albeit, through very crude methods.I don't doubt the credentials of Rev Korankye Ankrah as a servant of God. However, he and his kind need to do a lot of soul-searching. Thanks
All you guys need to find some real work and stop carrying the bible to con people. Enough of milking the people of collection money and tithes that you guys use to buy expensive suits and cars and pay for school fees for your children overseas. Enough of all these lies and competition and noise making in your neighborhoods. Ghana is bleeding because of you guys. Your lies , con, exploitation of the masses etc. Get real jobs.
He's talking about himself and doesn't want any competition!
You Sam Korankye Ankrah are one.
The devil now sits in church on Sunday. Trust God not Otabil, Duncan Williams etc. They are mere mortals.
HOW ABOUT YOU? CAN YOU BE QUANTIFIED AS A CHARLATAN? PAUL SAID THIS OF YOU PEOPLE IN HIS TIME. GUESS HOW OLD THE GOSPELS OF PAUL WERE WRITTEN AND YOU ARE LAMENTING THIS IN SCENARIO AT THIS TIME OF HISTORY. FRANKLY MY OPINION IS THAT YOU ARE ALL THE SAME JUST MILKING PEOPLE AND LIVING WELL. ITS ALL A SHOW. WATCH HARRISON FORD'S HEAL OF FAITH AND THE COMMENTARY WILL STOP OR BETTER STILL WATCH ADJIN ASARE'S CRUSADES IN INDIA (NOT IN GHANA) AND YOU WILL NOT BE FAR FROM WRONG. YOU PEOPLE DO NOT LIVE LIKE SHEPHERDS OF THE FLOCK.
It is all written in Matthew 24 Bishop . We are approaching the end of the ages so we would continue to see more and serious ones.
