Easter teaches us that nothing comes easy – Nduom

In his Easter message to Ghanaians, Dr. Paa kwesi Nduom prayed to God to cleanse our sins and save us from the many road acccidents, armed robbery, fires and other calamities.

“Christians everywhere begin today Holy Thursday, on a journey for renewal. Catholics confess their sins in the belief that Our Father in Heaven will cleanse them and wipe it all clean for another chance to seek salvation”.

He said Easter teaches us that nothing comes easy. Our salvation came through the ultimate sacrifice not just of any human being but the Son of Our Father in Heaven.

“With His sacrifice, we gained redemption. But then there was deception, betrayal from within that led to the ultimate sacrifice that also led to triumph over sin and death”.

In Ghana, we have had our share this year of terrible road accidents, armed robbery, fires that have destroyed life and property, cholera and other preventable diseases, wage and salary disputes that have led to strikes, unemployed graduates seeking attention to gain jobs, employers leaning on government to create a better environment for domestic businesses and politicians using intolerant language and exclusionary tactics to put their opponents at unfair disadvantage. We need cleansing. We need salvation” he said.

“In Africa, our people continue to die unnecessary death and suffer from hunger – in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Ivory Coast, Zimbabwe, Gambia, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, Sudan and many, many other countries”.

Dr. Nduom urged Christians, Moslems and Others to join together this season to confess, what we have done against our neighbours and humanity in general.

“We should all resolve to treat all as we want to be treated by our actions, speech and thought”.

“To CPP members, let us use this opportunity to let the youth shine. We should give them opportunity to lead our renewal so that we can rise as Jesus will this Sunday. With sacrifice we will rise. Let this year be our Easter!”
