-Christians Must Build Character – Rev. Austin Ukporhe Says

Rev. Austin Ukporhe, the lead pastor of Remnant Christian Network, Lagos (RCN) has emphasized the importance of Christians developing both character and charisma.

According to him, character grounds believers in who they are in Christ, while charisma empowers them to shine, speak, and serve effectively.

This aligns with biblical teachings, such as Jesus’ statement that Christians are the “salt of the earth” and “light of the world (Matthew 5:13-14).

Christians Must Build Character 

“Amid all these, we must remember the two metaphors our Lord Jesus used to define us in the context of our assignment: “You are the salt of the earth… you are the light of the world.” Coming from the mouth of Jesus during one of His most important sermons, these are essential to Christian living. They speak of who we are, what we carry, and how we must impact the world.

“To live as true salt and light, every believer must learn to build godly character and develop holy charisma. Character grounds us in who we are in Christ, and charisma empowers us to shine, speak, and serve. Both are needed for a life that honours God and transforms the world.”
