The concepts enemy, evil and divinatory consultation are becoming very common among Neo-prophetic churches in Ghana. This study examines how Ghanaian Neo-prophetic Churches understand and explain these concepts in order to open up these concepts for further scholarly probe. It examines the historical antecedents of the prophetic phenomenon in Ghana and shows its root in the indigenous religion and also its recurrence in Ghanaian Christianity. It focuses on the current wave known as Neo-prophetism in the Neo-Prophetic Churches (NPCs) in Pentecostal Ghana. Neo-prophetic churches constitute Peripheral prophetism which forms the main thrust of this work. Neo-prophetism demonstrates how the interaction of Ghanaian Pentecostals' biblical understanding and the Akan religio-cultural worldview informs their pursuit for meaning in life. It also reveals how the supernatural causal other under-girds Ghanaian Pentecostals' understanding of evil and suffering. Theologians, students, researchers and anyone who is interested in Pentecostal, cultural and religious studies may find this very useful. Also, the Ghana Pentecostal and Christian Councils may find this study very useful.
