Yenagoa______ The Founder/General Overseer (G.O.) of Altar of Fire lnt'l Church worldwide, Evang. Dr. Samuel Adu Elaweremi has called on Christians all over the world to emulate and live Christ like life in order to make heaven, stressing that the kingdom of heaven is at hand and fast approaching.

Dr. Elaweremi gave the charge on Wednesday at Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital during the day one of the 3rd edition of Altar of Fire lnt'l Church three days Changers Conference. He admonished Christians that as a believer, you don't have to do the things of the world (flesh) by fornicating, committing adultery, lying, fighting, keeping malice etc, rather we should pursue heaven and everlasting life by doing the things of the spirit, such as forgiveness, showing love to one another, slow to anger among other virtues.

Speaking on this years Changers Conference with the Theme: 'The Renewed Mind And The Church Vision', Dr. Elaweremi tell Christians to open their minds, holy and acceptable unto God, saying that is how a true Christian with renewed mind should be. " As born again, we should avoid doing things in same manner as those in the world but be transformed to be in line with the precepts of God."

Quoting Apostle Paul in the book of 2 Corinthians 5: 17 which says, " Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new". That is how the renewed mind is expected to be which is the penultimate of the new creature.

Speaking on the Church Vision and Mission, he urged Christians to be focused on the nature and character of Christ in the bid of teaching and transforming lives for Christ for the Kingdom of God, stressing that it is by looking into the attributes and the effective teaching of the word to the brethren that would bring about the renewed mind. He therefore, pray God to change our lifestyles from doing the things of the world and think the way of God and Lord Jesus Christ thinks, that is the way of winning souls for Christ, Evang. Elaweremi concluded.
