Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pentecostals tend to believe that people's lives are controlled by unseen powers that are responsible for both good and bad. Pentecostals look to Jesus Christ as a power that is stronger than those of evil and can ensure that believers enjoy good health and prosperity. For them, life is characterised by suffering and evil, but in Christ they are conquerors, and life is full of concrete blessings. Using songs and sermons, this book shows the main beliefs of the leadership and grassroots members of the Church of Pentecost (Ghanaian Pentecostals) on Christology and evil.
