Ghanaian preacher and politician Rev. Christian Kwabena Andrew, popularly known as Sofo Kyiriabosom, has sparked heated reactions online after making a dramatic statement about Christianity, Jesus Christ and the existence of Heaven.
According to a statement circulating on social media, the preacher, who claims to have spent 28 years as a pastor, said his years in ministry have led him to a shocking conclusion: that Jesus Christ is not real and that Heaven does not exist.
“I have been a pastor for 28 years, and I have come to realise that Jesus Christ isn’t real and that Heaven doesn’t exist. It is a scam. Don’t let anyone deceive you.”
The remarks have generated significant debate, particularly because they are attributed to a man who has spent decades preaching within the Christian faith.
For many social media users, the statement raises questions about what could have led a Christian minister to such a conclusion after nearly three decades in ministry.
Others have questioned the authenticity and context of the circulating statement, while some have already begun debating its implications for Christianity and the role of religious leadership.
Sofo Kyiriabosom is no stranger to controversial public statements, and this latest claim has once again placed him at the centre of public discussion.
The statement has also sparked a broader discussion about faith, religious experience, and the responsibilities of religious leaders, with people expressing diverse opinions on whether a pastor’s personal shift in belief should impact the faith of others.
Whether the statement represents a genuine change in his personal beliefs, a provocative commentary, or remarks taken out of context remains a major point of discussion.
