There are many things I could say about Sir Elorm, but perhaps the best way to speak about him is to speak about what I myself, have seen in the man, and after the Spirit.


Rev. Elorm John Tetteh is the father of the Church of the Martyrs. He is the set man of the house, with a vision to raise a nation of Kings, Priests and Prophets, fashioned after the likeness of Christ, men who can be entrusted with managing the estate of YeHoVaH.


The Martyrs Church has seen steady growth since its inception, but beyond the numbers, there is a man who has given himself to the labour of raising sons.


His mantra is rooted in faithfulness, purity, integrity, prayer, consecration and the Word. These are principles he has sought to instill in the men he has raised.


I spent months in close proximity with Sir Elorm, and that period gave me the privilege of knowing the man beyond the pulpit.

I watched him spend hours labouring in the study of the Word and in prayer. I watched the intensity with which he searched the Scriptures. Those who know him will know the familiar sound of his voice when he receives light from the Word, those uncontrollable screams of joy when revelation breaks forth.


There is something beautiful about watching a man genuinely delight in the Word of God.

For me, this is one of the clearest testimonies of his love for the Lord. He lives by the Word. He searches, treasures and fears the law of YeHoVaH.


He does not hold back Truth for fear of criticism, persecution or the possibility of being misunderstood. His teachings are raw, uncompromising and unfiltered truth from the Word of God, filled with the Spirit. One of the first teachings of his that transformed my life in the most unimaginable way was the Faithful Men series. https://t.me/the_martyrs/2618


He takes seriously the responsibility of standing before God's people and speaking forth matters on the heart of God. He holds the Word of God in such high regard that he is not afraid to correct himself. When he discovers an error in what he has taught, he returns to set it right. That, to me, is integrity.

It is easy to appear infallible from a pulpit. It takes humility to stand before people and say, “I was wrong about this. This is what the Word actually says.”


Sir Elorm is selfless. He will put the needs of his flock before his own. He loves without condition and forgives without hesitation. He labours tirelessly for the people God has entrusted to him. I have watched him pour himself out for his sons, in ways that I do not think many people will ever fully fathom. He has brought light and transformation into my life and into the lives of many others.


I go through life with boldness, knowing that I have such a father in the faith. A father who loves me and labours for my sake. A father who jealously guards the safety of his flock. A father whose correction comes from love and from a desire to see us become who God has predestined us to be. When I make a mistake, I trust him to guide me back to the ways of YeHoVaH.


His reverence and faithfulness toward the Lord are truly an example to follow. The Apostle Paul said, “Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ” Sir Elorm sets before his sons an example of devotion, discipline, sacrifice and Christ-centred living.


They say age is just a number. I believe it, because there is a strength in this man that cannot be measured by his years. The Spirit of the Lord is upon Him.


He is an honourable man. A man who has separated himself from the affairs of Babylon and refuses to defile himself with the things of the world. He holds firmly to his convictions because he is a faithful man who has counted the cost of following Christ.


The Martyrs Church is blessed to have him.

His sons are some of the most blessed men alive to have been given such a father in the faith. There are fathers in the faith whose very lives become an inheritance. To be raised under a man who passionately and zealously desires that his sons conform to Christ, is a blessing that cannot be measured.


His ministry is marked by prayer, consecration, fellowship, transformation and healings. But beyond the manifestations, what stands out to me is life. This is a man who has chosen to surrender all to God. No theatrics. No façade. Just the Spirit and the life of God in operation.


I do not say these things because I have heard them from someone else.

I write this from personal experience, as someone who has walked with him and dined with him. Behind closed doors, not just in the moments when he stands before a congregation.

I can vouch for the integrity of this man. I can testify to his love, his strength, his sacrifice, his devotion.


I believe in the vision of the Martyrs Church. I am convicted, deeply and unwaveringly, that the Lord has called this house for such a time as this. I believe that what God is doing through this ministry is bigger than a congregation. I believe He is raising men who will carry His name, men who will be faithful with the inheritance entrusted to them, men who will stand in a generation that needs our light.


When the story of this house is told, let it be said that there was a remnant who gave themsleves completely to Father's business. May the sons you raise carry the image of Christ into generations to come. May your sacrifice for the Kingdom be a memorial unto you in the heavens.
