ARCHBISHOP DUNCAN: Covid-19 Taught Me Money And Material Things Are All Vanity”

Popular Ghanaian man of God, Archbishop Duncan Williams has said Covid-19 has taught him and largely to the rest of mankind that worldly properties are not worthwhile.

In his Good Friday message to Ghanaians, the man of God asked Christians to take a second look at their lives and the lesson one can draw from the lockdown down triggered by coronavirus.

“I think this is a lesson for all of us, to begin to re-examine our motives. You have monies you cannot use. You have monies in the banks and you can’t even go to withdraw it. You have properties in different parts of the world, you cannot fly there to go and stay. You have the keys hidden somewhere. You cannot go anywhere you are grounded. All those nice expensive cars are parked. You cannot drive them. All the things you possess that you are proud of, you cannot be proud of anymore. GUCCI shoes, watches and bags, you cannot use them. God knows for how long,” he stated.

 

The Archbishop Duncan clarified that he’s not necessarily preaching against hard work and the acquisition of properties but giving people an opportunity to think deeply about the purpose of life.

“I’m not saying you shouldn’t have things, have them. But you have to be careful that your faith, confidence, and hope don’t depend on any of these things. That your confidence is not derived from money but rather God’s word,” he elaborated.
