The immediate past Moderator of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Rev. Dr. Yaw Frimpong Manso has quit the church.
His resignation is due to what he described as gross disrespect to his person and ministry.
Rev. Dr. Frimpong Manso’s decision follows a resolution by the leadership of the Presby Church Ghana (PCG) to severe their relationship with pro-homosexual Presbyterian Church in the United States of America.
The Moderator of the Presby Church Ghana, Rt. Rev. Prof. Emmanuel Martey had written to his predecessor – Rev Frimpong Manso – who has been sent to Virginia on assignment asking him to return to Ghana latest by December 31, 2015.
He cited among other things that the Presbyterian Church USA approval to ordain gay pastors, elders and deacons is unbiblical and described it as 'demonic'.
Prof Martey vowed that the Presbyterian Church Ghana will not accept the act because it is a total “deviation from Bible principles.”
