Dr Lawrence Tetteh, a Ghanaian Evangelist, based in the UK on Tuesday tasked the Clergy to combine their missionary with professional skills, in order to facilitate a holistic Christian ministry that would meet the needs of the people.
"It is not enough to preach the gospel without helping the community where the missionary work is going on.
"Christian leaders must be the salt and light of the world, by enhancing socio-economic development of society."
Dr Tetteh was speaking to the Ghana News Agency in Accra, on Tuesday when he led a 10-member Christian professionals to Ghana for missionary duties.
The team include medical doctors, public health experts and financial consultants.
Dr Tetteh is also a guest at the Korle Gonno Cathedral of the Light House Chapel International in Accra, where he would address the October 7- October 9 "More Than You Can Carry Convention, 2009".
Dr Tetteh paid tribute to the late Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana's first President on the occasion of his centenary anniversary celebrations, describing him "as a visionary who undoubtedly lived many years ahead of his time."
He said Christian leaders had the responsibility to educate their followers about the role Christians played in Ghana's anti-colonial struggle.
Dr Tetteh said when Dr Nkrumah became Ghana's Prime Minister in 1951; his aspirations were based on Christian principles, adding that the late leader pursued a first degree in Theology at the University.
He said the leadership of the church must not water down the Christian principles that had made what Ghana is today.
Dr Tetteh said the church must know the role Christians from all walks of life played in the fight for the freedom of Ghana.
"I believe that it is the fear of God that has brought Ghana this far."
Touching on the convention he commended Bishop Dag Heward Mills, Presiding Bishop of the Light House Church for the immense role he had played in spreading the gospel of Christ.
"People coming to the convention should believe that the undiluted message of God would be preached and that miracles still happen today."
