The Bible Society of Ghana (BSG) on Tuesday launched new English Bibles which was produced for Ghana@50, with a call on Ghanaians to place value on the Bible, study it and avoid moving from one camp to another for spiritual help. Mr S K Boafo, Minister of State for Culture and Chieftaincy said, "It has become necessary for Christians and believers to sit down and read their bibles, which will direct their path. "If as believers we are rooted in the word of God, we will not be exploited by this present day charlatans and self acclaimed men of God". Mr Boafo was launching the Golden Jubilee Bibles dubbed: Adult Commemorative Bibles written in English Standard Version. It comes as a classical reference edition with unique feature including, centre column cross reference, footnotes, 71 pages concordance, 21-page supplementary biblical information and a seven-page national information. Mr Boafo said though bibles formed an integral part of the individual's development, it was one of the books that people did not like to purchase. He recounted God's blessing for the nation's existence for all these 50 years and urged Ghanaians not to forget the success but to rather work hard to ensure total development in the coming years. The Minister urged the Ghana Journalist's Association (GJA) to establish a Christian fellowship chapter as other corporate bodies had done to enhance the spiritual development of its members. Ms Joyce Aryee, Chairman, BSG said the Bible was God's manual for every individual and urged each member of the public to endeavour to own one. Mr Kofi Owusu, General Secretary, BSG said the National Council adopted the concept to make bibles available to the people of Ghana to tell the story of this great nation and assist people get closer to God. He said under the Society's school project, one million copies of the old bibles were being circulated to junior high schools to bring up children in the knowledge of God. Source: GNA
