Barren Rejoice!
By Elder Enoch Ofori Jnr
(Sabbath Sermon, 19th October, 2013)
From Nothing to Life and Abundance
It's ageless past. What will later be called the universe is a vast empty space. Nothing moves. Nothing breathes. It's total silence. You could hear a pin drop! Suddenly from nowhere comes a jangling crashing sound, lights flash across in an iridescent display of brightness. A mighty voice has roared across the vast emptiness of time 'Let there be'! Giant luminous orbs appear in the atmosphere, earth appears, light appears, sea is formed out of earth, vegetation appear, sea life appear, animals appear. Man appears made in the likeness of God Almighty.
The emptiness is bustling with life and goodness. The voice of the Creator has replaced nothingness with fulness, nonexistence with abundance of life. He will always be God:

He Feels our Pain
By Elder Enoch Ofori Jnr
(Sabbath Sermon, 7th September, 2013)
A Loving God in a Loveless Generation
John 11:32-36
32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying unto Him, Lord, if Thou hadst been here, my brother [Lazarus] had not died.
33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, He groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto Him, Lord, come and see.
35 Jesus wept.
36 Then said the Jews, Behold how He loved him!

The Compelling Love of Christ
By Elder Enoch Ofori Jnr
(Sermon, 17th August, 2013)
"No Greater Love"
It's a love of a unique, unprecedented kind. "The love of Christ" for us. It's a love that meant His stripping Himself of all His divine honour, majesty, glory and prestige. Stripping Himself of His heavenly throne and adulation and adoration as the Eternal Son of the King of the Universe and the WORD through whom all things were. And all that great sacrifice not for any greater selfish interest or benefit but to become like us; to share our humanness, our ill-fate, our poverty and, yes, our death. And when He came, born of the virgin Mary by the Holy Spirit, He came preaching glad tidings to the poor, recovery of sight to the blind, liberty to the captives, and the year of Yahweh's favour (Luke 4:18-19). But He was hated and persecuted by men, hounded and scourged by them and finally tied to a crude and cruel stake to die a slow cruel death (Isa. 53)

The Kingdom of God is in Power
By Elder Enoch Ofori Jnr
(Sabbath Sermon, 10th August, 2013)
A Beloved Church but Intractable!
The Church in Corinth was a church on which Paul expended much time and effort. He laboured hard and long to establish it and to nurture it. We know, for instance that, spurred on by a revelation from the Lord that He had “much people” in the city, he spent a whopping 18 months just laying the foundation of the church—making converts and getting it off the ground (Acts 18:1-11).

In which Book is your Name Written?
By Elder Enoch Ofori Jnr
(Sabbath Sermon, 13th July, 2013)
Man has a Maker
It's a thought that has engaged the mind of every serious person who has ever walked this planet:
What is man?
Where does he come from?
What am I doing on earth?
Is there any meaning to my life?
How will it all pan out?
Does God truly exist?
Call it the riddles of life, and you will not be far wrong. There's more to man than meets the eye. We feel it in our innermost being. The longing in our souls betray it--the quest for meaning, for purpose; our fascination with the paranormal; the desire to make sense of human existence.
