Obinim Sticker Saga and the Awakening of Ghanaians, Give thanks to Avraham Ben MoShe


                                       By Tawiah Evans

These days, people of Ghana are bold to see some pastors for who they really are, comedians.
Some few years ago, who are you to make a sarcastic statement about how a “man of God” behaves or what they say? We were all engulfed in few of been punished by God.

Apart from the natural fear in the individuals who were afraid to talk about the illogical and senseless things our so called men of God engage in, the pastors also sort refuge in 1 Chronicles 16:22 "Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm."
Some times you ask yourself, what kind of oil was used in anointing these concert party pastors; is it Frytol,Zome or kube Anwa? And the most important question is where did these people meet God after they slept with their younger pastor’s wife?.

But the good news is, since the emergence of  Avraham Ben Moshe in the religious space of Ghana things have dramatically changed. As many Ghanaians have got the boldness and the confidence to tell their minds on various religious issues coming from the numerous men of God.
Avraham Ben Moshe was a Muslim who became a Christian, later became a Jewis-Christ believer currently a non-religious free thinker. Through his teachings, the people of Ghana are gradually equipping themselves with a lot of religious knowledge which is taking away the fear of been killed or punished by God if they express their opinions on religious maters in the country.
Before Moshe started his education, it was very difficult to speak on religious matters without the fear of spiritual punishment. This gave preachers and the clergy unquestioned authority in the country but the narrative is not the same anymore.
In Ghana today, many pastors are cautious about the things they tell their followers because if you say anything unscientific, they will either show you a video of Avraham Ben Moshe to disprove what you are saying or they will start making mockery of your statement knowing very well that, you are not making any sense hence their name: The Common Sense Family.
NOW THE MEANING OF THE OBINIM STICKER

It all started with Afia Schwarz’ sarcastic testimony about the Obinim sticker and everyone is giving their sarcastic testimony which in actual sense the man of God is been mocked and laugh at.


And to those of you who don’t know anytime people begins to laugh and mock at something they once cherished and fear so much, there and there you have to know that, that particular thing is losing grip of the very people it once held captives.

Mind you, this is not only happening to Obinim alone but countless men of God and for me we can talk about this feat in the spiritual part of our life as a society without mentioning the man behind The Common Sense Family, Avraham Ben Moshe for his contribution through his CSF teachings.

Sometimes people think it only in Ghana or Africa that people have become slaves to religion but the fact is Europe was once more religious than Africa today and they were so under-develop but a group of thinkers called the renaissance emerged and said henceforth we are not going to listen to the Church and what our religious leaders say unless it make logical sense and was only then that Europe begun to develop.

To be continue…..
