Living life according to the gospel

The Briefly News team enjoyed speaking with senior deacon Ditsego Morupe from a local church, who shared the importance of getting closer to God.

"We are seeing more young people join our churches to get closer to God, and that is beautiful because the devil is working overtime to get the Lord's people on its side."
"'Whenever I counsel a young couple for marriage or marry them, I share the importance of centring their union around God as the devil's mission is to break any structure that represents the almighty."

Speaking on couples changing their lifestyles to live according to the gospel at the same time, he said:

"It is victorious to see married couples choosing to be saved together because we are often faced with the challenge of having one partner ready to commit to God and the other wanting to live a life away from God."
