The Believers Worship Centre, also known as the Philadelphia Movement, has responded to a press release from the Christian Council describing statements made by their leader, Prophet Stephen Adom Kyei-Duah, as anti-Christian.

Prophet Adom Kyei-Duah said he had received a divine message that stated that in 500 years, his image would replace the well-known image of Jesus Christ worldwide.

This did not sit right with the Christian Council, who described the statement as anti-Christian and akin to the teachings of a false prophet.

Christian Council condemns Philadelphia Movement's leader's statement about replacing Jesus' image

Per GhanaWeb, the council warned Ghanaians not to be drawn to miracles and spectacles as authenticators of the anointing of God and further advised the prophet to repent and save his soul.

However, in reaction to the Christian Council’s statement, the Philadelphia Movement noted that the Council had clearly misconstrued Adom Kyei-Duah's words and religious doctrines.

It said that nowhere in Adom Kye-Duah’s sermons had he claimed to be Jesus Christ; instead, he had admonished his followers to keep faith in Christ and live a life worthy of the Christian messiah.

The Philadelphians noted that attempts to distort the prophet’s statement smacked of 'mischief, doctrinal subterfuge, and envy'.

They noted that further describing the prophet as the anti-Christ was even more condemnable, ill-motivated, and baseless, with the advice to Ghanaians to shun 'misleading theologies' called 'misplaced and judgemental'.

They said the body of Christ in Ghana was sick and would need deep cleansing to be whole again.

Meanwhile, the Philadelphians said their prophet would continue to grow larger and larger and would take over Christianity.

Concerning the prophecy of the image of Jesus being replaced, the Philadelphia Movement said the Christian Council is at will to believe it or not.
