Christian Book launched to expose fake prophets in Churches

A book, titled ‘Broken Teeth’, and praised in the media for its documentary force, has been launched in Accra.
The novel exposes some of the grave failings and even heinous crimes being perpetrated by some religious leaders, especially leaders of those churches lacking corporate or moral word-based checks on flesh.
At the launch, the author, Rev Suma Kupa Jehu-Appiah, quoting W.H. Auden, said: “Private faces in the public faces are wiser and nicer than public faces in private places…”
He read sections of his new book to demonstrate that some prophets financially exploit the public by having one face for their public lives and another for their private lives.
According to Mr Jehu-Appiah, he believes governments may be ‘toothless’ in dealing with the problem that is harming productivity in Ghana and Africa as a whole.
The Christian Council in Ghana, he stressed are not uniting the old churches to fight the emergence of these so-called ‘magicians’ leading members away from the true doctrines of Jesus Christ.
The fiction by the award-winning poet, theologian, preacher and journalist opined that to clean the church journalists, essayists, novelists, playwrights, and poets but not politicians should be the ones to educate the public about modus operandi and the criminality of false prophets of Africa.
The Chairperson, Nana Obokum Atta IX, a philanthropist and the Amankorahene of Gomoa Akyempim Traditional Council, expressed disappointment that the ever-increasing number of Churches has not necessarily reflected favourably on corruption, violent crimes, prison population, unemployment and the relief of poverty in Africa.
He purchased the first copy of the book authored by Rev Suma Kupa Jehu-Appiah at a cost of GH₵ 5,000.
The ‘Broken Teeth’ received blurbs by theologians, senior university and seminary professors and was reviewed by The Ghanaian Times, the theologian Rev Dr Johnson Kwaku Asibuo and the GIJ award-winning author, Jean Philip Lawson, at the Launch.
The novel is currently available at Challenge Bookstore and all other leading bookshops in Ghana.
