“THE VANITY OF OLD TEACHINGS”

TEXT: ST. MATTHEW 24: 1-END.
We do not do things in this Kingdom according to the dictates of the flesh. All the gospels given in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star come from God. Your problem is that you mix the material things with that of the divine kingdom. The teachings of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star do not come from man or angel. They come directly from the Almighty. All that you see on earth are vanity. The teachings of the world and their laws are things of the flesh and are very negative in nature. The teachings of this Kingdom are from God, as such, no matter the amount of prayer and fasting you undertake, without practicing the words of God, you are wasting your time. Let verses 1 and 2 be read:

“And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said unto them, see ye not all these things? Verily I say unto you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down”. (St. Matthew 24: 1-2).

Where are all the magnificent cathedrals and flowing traditions and customs that existed in those days? All the deceitful tradition like inheriting the position your father left behind as a co-founder of the church, participating in communion, or tolling bell to signify funeral. Men are so engrossed with frivolous things that they even forget about the Kingdom of God. The bane of the world is from this reason. People who came before Christ came for their selfish needs. The churches that were founded earlier before this time were established for selfish purposes. Magnificent edifices were erected to teach worldly things in the name of God. Thank God, many of these old teachings are fading away. This confirms what the scripture says in St. John 10: 8 that:

“All that ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them”.

Christ came to destroy evil things. All the practices that our forefathers indulge in, undertaking pilgrimage to Jerusalem, believing on the laws of Moses among other things were in vain. If the practices of men were good, why did Our Lord Jesus Christ come? Our Lord Jesus Christ is the only savior of man and the Son of God. He shed His unblemished blood for the redemption of mankind. Jesus the Christ is the only Being who rules the world. He is the Son of God, the son of man, and God Himself. He is also made of the flesh, spirit and soul. He has a dual nature. His component comprises water, which stands for the Son of God, blood, which is the son of man, and spirit, which signifies the Godhead. If you go by the teachings of Moses, Abraham and Melchizedek, you will be destroyed because they were not endowed with the attributes of God, as it is the case with Christ.

Brethren, I want you to realize that all the practices in churches from the time of Moses to date do not bring any meaningful thing to mankind. This is so because the exponents of these old teachings were not well versed with the scripture. A blind man cannot lead the blind. Churches and the people of the world are still practicing the old and obnoxious traditions of the new yam festival, the coronation of chiefs and chief priest, sprinkling of water on the forehead as a form of baptism and pouring of libation among other things. It was Our Lord Jesus Christ who came to teach mankind the only way to God and salvation. Yet, the world conspired and killed Him because they could not comprehend the good message He brought to mankind.
There is discrimination, unhealthy rivalry, hatred, and religious intolerance among churches and among church leaders. Our Lord Jesus Christ showed you the truth. As such, you have to refrain from carnal things. When you go into any of the churches today, their attitudes will expose their lack of respect for God, because the Holy Spirit does not direct them. They indulge in unwholesome practices, fornication, gossiping, drinking of alcohol among other bad habits. These people are ignorant of their ignoble acts. If the pope is invited into this Kingdom, he will be at sea about how our doctrines are alien to other churches. To you who have seen the light, you should all shine to illuminate others. Read:

Ephesians 4: 11: “And he gave some apostles and some prophets and some evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers”. Read also
Colossians 2: 11: “In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ”.

Brethren the crave for material things is the greatest problem in the world today. The love for traditions and culture was manifested when King James withdrew his membership from the Roman Catholic Church, which resulted in the establishment of the Church of Scotland. This same tradition and culture is seen as the bedrock of the different churches founded in the world today. The numerous practices by the world and the church denominations are not in accordance with the laws of God. The rites of passage, the wedding ceremony, the suspension of members as practiced by some churches, ostracism of members and imposition of fines on members are not the tenets of God. They do these things in order to satisfy their selfish purposes. This is where Brotherhood differs from these churches because the Holy Spirit directs Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In some denominations, their practices are negation of Christ’s teachings. These churches pour libation. Some looked for elementary spirits for protection. Brotherhood is concerned with the word of God. Some churchgoers attend church services with talisman on their necks; some get intoxicated with alcohol while some came out from native doctors before they come to church. They talk of Holy Communion when they do not know the meaning. It is in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star that the real communion is done. I am assuring you that you are saved. Read St. Matthew 24: 3-4

“And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying tell us, when shall these things be; and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, take heed that no man deceive you”.

From this excerpt, you can now understand what had happened, what is happening and what will happen in the future, the events of the past, the present and future are revealed here. All that is written in this excerpt is fulfilled. The recent happenings in USSR and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Iraq, America, among other nations underscores this fact. There are wars and rumors of war in the world. Many homes and people are lost to flood, earthquake among other natural disasters occurs all over the world. Many people claim falsely that they know Christ.
Even within Brotherhood members, many people have risen up to proclaim themselves variously as Christ, prophet and Christ’s Servants. They claim to have the powers of healing. Many are deceived. It has been written that nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom and there shall be pestilence, earthquakes and famine in the world. People shall betray one another, and iniquities shall abound. The love of many shall wax cold but he who endures to the end shall be saved. For the sign of the end, there shall be rumors of war and wars. The First World War may be regarded as the beginning of the prophecy. There are holocausts and pogrom the world over. People are killed with impunity. Nations are scattered. The events in the world only take the worldly people by surprise. We know that, it is the fulfillment of the Father’s words about the signs of the end. This is a period of changeover, a time to make all things anew. This is because the world has derailed from the path of rectitude.

In 1914, the whole world witnessed global war as a result of the squabble and misunderstanding between Germany and the British Empire. In 1917, Russia placed a ban on all forms of religious activities in its territory. In 1917, in a small town of Padua (in Portugal) the Holy Mother appeared to the three girls (Jacintha and the rest) revealing her existence in the blacks. A testimony from one principal in Bakana revealed that Calabar is a very powerful spiritual seat that is why there is peace. The wordings of the song, ‘Canna, Canna Calabar, I’ll be there tomorrow’ confirms the stability and peaceful co-existence that exists in the city. This gospel underscores the assertion that, the earth and heaven shall pass away but God’s word cannot pass away. If you are privileged to witness the signs of the end, what stops you from being righteous? Why can’t you refrain from evil? There is no comfortable life in the world.
The name of Jesus and O.O.O perturb people of the world, that they are angry at the mere mention of those names. This confirms what is written in the scripture that people will be persecuted for the sake of God’s name. Almost all the church denominations are preaching against Brotherhood because they do not have anything to teach. The tenets of church denominations reveal the fact that many false prophets have risen up to you who have been opportuned to receive this kind of salvation, you should hold fast to your God, and praise Him for His goodness. There is a popular saying that: ‘what a man can do a woman can do better’. Pastor Dappa was one of the first set as well as early pastors sent to Bakana for evangelism. He never did his assignment. Later on a sister was sent there, but surprisingly, she has put up a mighty cathedral and has converted the chief of the village to this faith.

Rivers State could be said to be a Brotherhood stronghold because many of its prominent sons and daughters are members. When some of its gubernatorial aspirants visited Me, I told them that whoever I will appoint to be a governor must be a God fearing person. The same measure will be applicable to the aspirants in Cross River and Akwa Ibom States. This is the period for honesty. I gave the presidential and governor seats to Shehu Shagari and Dr. Isong respectively which they misused.
I always advised the chiefs who come to Me with problems to get baptized into the fold and celebrate feast. A testimony from one Royal Highness revealed that, his assistant could not become a member of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star because of his wife and his church (the Cherubim and Seraphim). Despite pressure from the chief, his assistant remained adamant. It was not long, there was a dispute in the village, which resulted in violence and the man’s life was taken. The question is, did his wife and church save him? Seek God first in your life. I advise everybody to recognize God as the giver and ruler of everything. Once you do this, I reassure you that you cannot be harmed.

Inspite of the trouble made by the world to bring down Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, it rather makes it grow in strength and power. To believe in money, government, and political party does not save you. To have faith in the Lord is ultimate. If you are persecuted because of God’s work, you should console yourself with what the scripture says in St. John 16.

May My peace and blessings abide with you. Amen.

Thank You Good Father

“WOMEN SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN ALL FIELDS OF ENDEAVOURS”

TEXT: REVELATION 1: 1-20

The trouble with the world is that they have not accepted the teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ, which says that we should not call any person a teacher because we all are brothers. If we had accepted this teaching, we would have regarded ourselves throughout the world as brothers. There should be no discrimination between the white, black or the coloured people. And there should be no distinction between a man, woman and child. Division comes because we have rejected the injunctions of our Lord Jesus Christ to accept the other person as our brother. Read Matthew 12: 25:

“And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every Kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:” Read again

St. Matthew 23: 8 – “But be not ye called Rabbi; for one is your Master, even Christ, and all ye are brethren.”

No person actually knows what role I am coming to play in the world. Raising the dead, giving visions, and many other miracles, are part of God’s work, but My main assignment is to bring all the scattered children of God together into one fold. Read St. John 11: 51-52.

“And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.”

Animals were created to serve human beings and that you sit in your position of glory and honour while all these lower creatures administer unto you. Right from the day you decided to wage war against them by killing them for meat, you lost your glory. That is why there is no peace between man and the lower animals.
Man is thrown into confusion. Both whites and blacks are in a state of confusion. If there were any possible means, people would have loved to go and rest in the Hades because there is no peace in the world. And if there were any entrance that leads to Heaven, every person would have loved to go and rest there because of the state of unrest in the world. But right now if you want to go to Heaven the gate is closed; and if you want to go to hell the gate is also closed, people have become antagonistic against one another. They fight and kill one another.

YOUR HEART IS THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD
We know that it is not good to steal, but we continue to indulge in stealing. There are certain things we are forbidden to do, but yet still we continue to do them because the city is divided against itself. There is no other dwelling place of God apart from our heart. Our heart is the tabernacle of God, and if God does not dwell in you, pray fervently for yourself. If God does not dwell in you, it is just like building a house and leaving it for years and years without being occupied by any person. If you come back to see the house after many years, it will be grown with grasses, filled with cob webs, and many other filthy things because there is no person to take proper care of it. And in the same way, if God is not dwelling in you, know that you are useless.
The reason you look for animals, birds and fishes is to use them for food. The reasons that men look for women and vice versa is to get married and have children. Sometimes you will say that a girl is very beautiful, that if it were yourself of those days, you would have had her for a wife. A man marries a woman for two reasons only; but I ask you; are these the only reasons a woman was created? A man should realise that he is only a half, likewise a woman, and when two of them are joined together they become an entity. Minus a man, a woman is incomplete and minus a woman, a man is half. Have you ever come to this wisdom of truth? If all men in the world are assembled together, no matter their deliberations, they cannot accomplish anything because they are only half of what should be a whole. There is no other duty performed by a man, whenever they congregate to discuss matters, their natural instinct is to fight, kill and cause trouble because man is a naturally destructive being. The woman fold is a symbol of peace. Whenever women congregate alone to discuss matters, they can never accomplish anything because they are only half of a whole. They would not want anything that would cause confusion amongst them. But where there is no trouble, there can be no peace. It is said you should neither be hot nor cold; that is why women who are cool, and men who are hot are mixed together to produce a mid-way between hot and cool. The woman is a part of a man. What God has taken out of a man to create a woman is love; that is why all the time your mind and thoughts are concentrated on your wife. This is why when you sit in your office writing, you continue to think of your wife at home. If someone should come and steal your certificates, house properties, you will not wage war against that person, but whosoever tampers with your wife, you will wage war against that person and promise never to forgive the person.

Remember the story of Joseph and Potiphar. He loved Joseph to the extent that he handed over all the keys to his house to Joseph. Joseph controlled everything in Potiphar’s house. Potiphar did not bother whether or not he was given food by Joseph when he returned from official duties because of the extreme love he had for him. But from the day his wife falsely accused Joseph of attempting to be intimate with her, Potiphar, without bothering to ask, threw Joseph into jail. The reason why we fail in our diverse undertakings is because we do not observe the traditions of the whites, how they deal with their women.

WOMAN IS MOUTH-PIECE TO HER MAN
When Moses was sent by God to deliver the children of Israel from the land of bondage, he argued with God that he was a stammerer, that he will not be able to withstand Pharaoh and his people. God gave to him a mouthpiece, his brother Aaron. Wherever he went, Aaron spoke on his behalf. In the same way, women are given to men as prophets. Everything that would happens to a man, wherever he would be, God would reveal it to his wife and not to him. Man sees nothing in his dreams, but all the things surrounding his life will be revealed to his wife. It is pitiful that man does not beckon on the woman. Women are regarded as insignificant personalities in the society. Because of this idea man does not want the advice of a woman in his business undertakings. And when he plans and fails, he carries his hands on the head and cries to the woman in the house. In the same way any woman who does business alone without being in partnership with a man cannot succeed. Man and woman have to join hands together before they can succeed. It is because of the way women are manhandled by men that makes them vow never to become women again in their next generation. They say this, because they do not realise their responsibility.

With all your so-called knowledge, you do not know that if you want to do anything a man and a woman must be brought together before anything is formed. Man is a half, likewise a woman. There is nothing created by God that has not got a specific assignment. And so it is our duty to investigate our assignments, and also the purpose for which He has created us. Upon all the academic knowledge you claim to have acquired, your claims to have lived on planets for many years, but you do not know that man, woman and child in the entire world come from the same Father. The opinion of the woman should be taken into consideration as well as that of the man. Do you know the role a woman is coming to play in this world? I know that as you are sitting down here, you still regard women as nothing. You even respect the domestic animals in your house than the woman. You command them in the house like soldiers in the war front. You hush them up, asking them to stand up when you are talking, threatening to beat them up if they fail to take your orders. When I hear all these, I shed tears for the woman. The judgement of all those who maltreat women are coming soon, and will be very severe. You only need a woman for one thing. After that you torment her. All of you here, have in one way or the other deceived a woman. Even if you have not been telling lies to other people, you will like to start it with a woman.

When things are so bad with you, you go to attach yourself to a woman promising to marry her, and she will accept you not knowing that you are deceiving her. Women are easily deceived because they do not believe in truth, they yield easily to falsehood. Women assume to know everything, not knowing that they do not know anything. There is a fierce war between men and women. The men plan how to deceive as many women as possible and the women on the other hand plan how to enslave men unto themselves. Do not deceive woman again, they are your sisters and you are all one. Read St. Matthew 27: 15-20

“Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would. And they had then a notable prisoner called Barabbas. Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ? For he knew that for envy they had delivered Him. When he was set down on the judgement seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him. But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.”

You are the only person who has the effrontery to marry so many women, but if you see your wife with another man, the house is set on fire. If Pilate had listened to the advice given by his wife, would he have perished? The wife told him to have nothing to do with that good man because she had suffered so much in the dream because of that good man. Pilate did not listen to his wife, as you do not listen to your wives today and have to perish. In the compound you live, all those who love you or hate you are known by your wife, you are ignorant of everything. The only thing you do is to look for money and other material things, but your wife knows the intricacies of life. It is your wife who protects your soul. Do you not know that your life is in the hands of your wife? She will be the first person to know what ever is going to happen to you. If she wants you to go naked, cry today, laugh or rejoice she is capable of doing it. If she wants you to die today, she can do it as well.

Even though you would want to go to the sun or moon to discover the mysteries existing in these planes, but I tell you emphatically that your life is in the hands of your wife. She is capable of making you to be poor or rich, if she wants to. Your troubles, problems difficulties and the rest of the events occur because you do not make arrangements with your wife. You only go to her when things are bad with you. When things are good with you, you go and attach yourself to another woman in the world and ignore your wife. When you meet with diverse conditions you run back to her again. All the petitions of your wives are before God and they are many. They have suffered so much because you do not treat them as your brethren. And the judgment of those who maltreat their wives is a difficult one.

1st Peter 3: 7
“Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.”

That is why I always sympathize with you because whether you acquire worldly knowledge or possessions, study in higher institutions of learning and be a member of any religious organisations, you are completely useless as long as you do not give honour and respect to your wives.
Brethren, have you heard the text read out to you? Can you rightly say that God answers your prayers as long as you continue to maltreat your wife? God does not listen to your prayers because you do not love your wife. You have never invited your age group for wrestling, but every time you will box your wife, beat her up and throw her away because she will fall immediately you push her. I am very sorry for women because immediately you are hard on them, they will begin to sob and surrender. As God compares Himself with man, so does He compare man with a woman. The wisdom of God is greater than that of man, and that of man is greater than that of a woman. Man’s knowledge or intelligence is greater than that of a woman.

GENESIS 1: 29-30
“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.”

Only fruits and seeds are given to man as food: When were you given that authority to kill an animal and eat? If you eat meat of any animal, do you not know that you have eaten man? That is the very first offence against God. That is what I have devoted this time to teach you. All the words of God given to you now are not new: They are all those old words which had been given to you but which you failed to put into practice. You should know that the moment you eat meat, you have defiled the temple of the living God, and it is from that moment that you start to suffer. Where do you think the blood that comes from human beings, goats, hens and other animals go to? You should think over all these things having realised that men has blood, so also is a cow, hen, goat and other animals. They all have one and the same type of blood.

Why you people establish all types of institutions like the cinema houses, ball-room, dance halls; brew beer and all other types of liquor, is to obtain some form of temporary relief from life situations. You want some type of consolation because you have no peace in life. If you had been told sometimes that you would stay without drinking beer or any other drink and still be healthy, would you have believed? If you had been told that you would live without taking injections, drug, going to the juju man, soothsayer and to the necromancer to inject the black charcoal into your body, or to give you charms, talisman or concoction to wear, would you have believed? If you had been told that in this world you would lie alone on your bed, would you have believed? You would have said that type of thing would not happen in this world.
There is no man who sees the usefulness of a woman apart from being on bed with her. Even if she buys you a car, an aeroplane, an ocean steamer, or any other thing, you will tell her to keep all these things aside, and allow you to attend to the important thing. Our thoughts are all buried in this one fact, the idea of every man wanting to have the knowledge of all women. This is why immediately you see a man and a woman you conclude that they have been intimate. Even if this woman gives you a thousand Naira, the other person is not bothered about that. What concerns him or her most is that you had been intimate with that woman.

WOMEN SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN ALL FIELD OF ENDEAVOURS
Learn from what we practice here in Brotherhood. In any of the meetings or fellowships, if the President or Chairman is a man, the vice president will be a woman. If a woman is made the secretary, the assistant secretary will be a man, just like that throughout. There is no business which select men only and works well. It will be war altogether. And there is no business you will select only women and it works well. This is because there will be peace all through without war. These two things have to work hand in hand. You adopt this policy when you come in here, but immediately you depart from this place, you say that such a policy can only be adopted inside Brotherhood and not elsewhere. You also know that a man has his specific role to play in this Kingdom of which no woman, no matter her education or position, can qualify her to be used as a substitute for the man? That is why I say that the first job I have to do is to unite all the human beings inhabiting this globe. Be it the black, white or coloured, man woman or children, all of them have to be brought together. Can you tell Me the reason you do not regard woman as yourself? Is it because of the bride price you paid to the parents that makes you feel that you have bought an article? And for that reason you have to jealously guard against this article. You hush her, command her that you placed so much money on her head. That you can even decide to kill her since it was your money you spent on her, and that it does not bother you at all. The woman will only argue that if you kill her you would lose your money. Therefore, brethren instead of bride price, show a thankful heart to your in-law.
By right nobody should pay or receive bride price. It is the worst crime we have ever committed before God. There are two sins that God will never forgive men; one, you must not receive bride price when your daughter is to be married. But commitments before God are great, when you collect the bride price of your daughter it means you are selling God. If you watch what the Hausas are doing, they are not committed to these sorts of things. They do not sell land and do not sell human beings. But you who call yourselves more educated than the Hausas have you seen what you have done?

INSTEAD OF BRIDE-PRICE SHOW A THANKFUL HEART
When Sarah died, Abraham sent a messenger to go to the land of Israel and bring a wife unto his son, Isaac. Before he left, he was given so many things as presents: gold, chariots, money, and many other things. This errand-boy on his way prayed that God should reveal whosoever will be the wife of Isaac to him. That the very first girl he would meet and ask to give him water for his cattle: the first girl that respond, will definitely be the one.
Immediately after the prayers, he stood up. As he was approaching a well, he saw Rebecca and asked her to give him water for his cattle. She accepted and handed the bucket freely to the errand boy and even fetched him more water. The messenger became then convinced that she was the wife of Isaac, and gave her a ring. That was the origin of engagement ring. You go to a goldsmith to prepare something for you and you wear it in your finger. The engagement ring exchanged during church wedding is one of the things the world takes pride in. Take note that he had prayed for God to reveal the wife to him. It was then that Rebecca was revealed to him. How about you? Have you prayed God to reveal the type of wife you should marry? You meet a woman in the ballroom dance hall, cinema theater, school and the rest of the place and decide to marry.

PRAY TO GOD TO REVEAL YOUR WIFE
When the messenger reached the house, the people wanted to entertain him, but he told them that he was not prepared to eat yet until he had told them the message he was sent there by the master. After discussing, they ordered the girl Rebecca, to be brought. Immediately she was told who the messenger was, she accepted to marry Isaac. The parents did not say that this or that should be paid. The errand-boy opened the bag and brought out so many things: gold, silver, and clothes because Abraham was a very rich man and so many things were sent. Right now that you are preparing engagement rings and giving them to one girl or the other, have you imitated the ways of Abraham? That thankful heart, have you got it? Have you passed it to your father-in-law?

LAND SHOULD NOT BE SOLD
In the same token, when Sarah died, Abraham went to his people to sell to him a piece of land so that he can use it in burying his wife. The people said that he was a priest and a big man there, and that he does not have to pay anything. Since the land belongs to them he should use any part of it. He plead with them that the land should be sold to him. But somebody said that the land he wants to use will cost so much but they do not intend to sell it to him. Due to his position as a big man and a priest there, he should take it free. And so he brought out the “so much” and gave to them to show appreciation of what they had done for him. He received that land free; he had to give them presents free.

ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER
The law is that you should not eat any man’s food for nothing and that a lazy person should not be fed. All these things hang on “LOVE ONE ANOTHER”. If you form the habit of going to somebody’s house to eat everyday without making any attempt on your part for a return march, when the food is exhausted, what do you think will happen to the two of you? Two of you will be stranded: there will be no food for you to eat. That is the debt you owe to everybody. When somebody does any good thing to you, you have to reward him. And that is one thing we do in Brotherhood. There is no big or small man, but we try as much as possible to keep this equality to all human being because we have been given these things free of charge, we are supposed to live as equal with every person.

EVERY PERSON IS EQUAL
You also look at your children without regarding them as anything. Animals in the bush are better than them. I want somebody to give Me the reason why you do not have regard for your children. Do you not see them with two eyes and two legs and a human head as you have? Do you know where that child comes from? Your Father is his own Father and you are all equal. Does it mean that when he is a child, he is not a human being? Do you know what he has come to do in this world? Do you know whether the child is not greater than you? Do you know whether his own knot is not even bigger than yours? The child has a specific assignment, to do the work of the Father as you also have. What he is sent to do, you cannot do, and what you are sent to do, he cannot do. Therefore, what you have to do is to join hands together and co-operate; try to build and accomplish all that you have lost. You must not regard him as small child even if he is one month old. Even the child in the womb knows what you do not know because God who dwells in you also dwells in him. Do you love or regard your child as yourself? For these things I came to the world so that there will be no difference between “A” and “B” or “O” and “M”, and to remove the barrier between all men. If one is missing, you cannot get a complete set. You should not joke with whatever is called “MAN”. You are a man, that child is a man, and the other person is also a man. We should always co-operate together. We should not have any disregard for any other human being. You should not cause disintegration and division among yourselves because if you do, you cannot stand firm. If you continue to quarrel, fight and hurt yourselves, you cannot stand. Because you regard the small child as a small person, you go and buy a bowl of meat and eat it all without giving any to him. When he goes out he tells people that his father is a bad man that he has eaten a bowl of meat without giving him. He will decide that when he grows up he would buy his own meat and would not give it to him. Do you know the reason why at any time you send your child to go and buy something for N1.00 he uses 50 Kobo to buy what you want and the other 50 kobo for his meat, and will come back to tell you that your article costs N1.00.

Your child is more powerful than you. It is said: “New broom sweeps well.” It is a new axe that cuts down a big tree. If you have a big tree to cut down and you try to use an old blunt axe, it will take longer time or days to cut. Why not use a new one, which is sharp and can cut it easily? Your child is the new sharp axe that can cut down the tree. Why do you begin to punish yourself and cause division between yourselves? Try to tell children that you are all equal.

ST. MATTHEW 18: 9-14
“And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in Heaven.
For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.”

Brethren, have you heard that? What about you? If you hear that something is happening to your so-called enemy, somebody you declare as your enemy, you will say: I had told him that his sins will find him out one day, and so that thing has happened as a result of his sin. You will eat and drink and thank the God of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Does it mean the God of Brotherhood is a killer? If you sue somebody in the law court, saying that you want to teach him a lesson because he stole your thing, is God pleased about this action? All what you are doing are not pleasing to Him.
Whoever is called human being is your brother and so you have to regard him as your brother, your own self and the children of the same Father. What do you lose in regarding everybody as yourself? What is your profit if you sow the seeds of division between you and your brother, sister or your children. Because it is quite clear to us that any Kingdom that divides against itself shall fall. And so brethren, what I have come to do is to unite the whole world into one entity. You are taught love, truth, humility, patience, meekness and all the other virtues of God so that you know how to live in peace with one another. If you have patience, you will know how to live in peace with any person. If you have patience, you can offer to stay with thieves, fornicators and all sorts of evil doers without trouble and without having the urge to take anybody to the police. You will use your sympathy to stay with them. If you are merciful, you will not plan evil against any person. You will be able to stay in peace with everybody, because it is this mercy that will guide you through.

Do you know that the Efiks have their own culture? The Quas and the Efiks also have their own culture. The culture of the Efiks is different from that of the Quas, and that of the Quas in turn is different. If you go also to Uruan, the whole culture there is different from what you saw at Oron. The Ibibios and Annangs do not agree because of the different cultures they have. This is what I have come to do – to unite all these groups together into one whole. The Annang man is very sharp with the matchet and so he will not spare you when you offend him. He will first of all chop off your head and then go to the police station to report that he has killed somebody, and then he will be prepared to be taken to anywhere. If you want to inflict corporal punishment on an Annang man, he will run away, but if you want to engage him in a duel with the matchet, he will thank his God, for that is what he is good at. That way of life is in his blood. And so the differences in culture, ways of life and behaviours make differences in the entire world. In the city this difference will exist. Unless these different cultures are brought together into on social and cultural whole, there will be no peace.

The bones of fish you eat and throw away; the coconut shells you throw away, and even the condemned irons scattered everywhere, if they are shipped to overseas, they can be used to manufacture something very useful there. Even the urine that comes out of you can be useful there, for one thing or the other. Do you know that all these things you throw away; small shells, rotten nails and other materials you condemn here are wanted abroad? Even people there look for contracts for the supply of these things. Do you know why it is said you should not spit out saliva or cough and spit out mucus indiscriminately? This is because when it is left on the ground to mix with the dust, you will breathe the disease again when it is evaporated. This also happens with faeces you pass into water, which causes water to be contaminated.
The world is revolving, it goes round and round. As the scriptures tell you that there shall be a time when sand shall return to sand, earth to earth, and dust to dust. If it were not so, we would not have had so many people in the world. When a drop of blood is lost, you know that blood makes a human being. So many people come out through blood that is dropped on the ground. When blood is said to be flowing somewhere, do you know where it goes to? And you also say that water flows out of the body, do you know where it comes from and where it goes? And so you have no right to say this thing is very good or that thing is bad, or that a thing is killing or that it is poisonous. Feed on all the herbs, the leaves and fruits or the trees, all are delicious.

I do not teach you about the time Adam was in the garden of Eden or when Abraham was a bearded fellow. All these are ancient history. What we have now are the new lessons about this New Kingdom of God. We have to forget about all these things that transpired in the past. Right now, you are being taught new lessons about this Kingdom of God but in other places they are being taught that until Jesus Christ comes back. They are waiting until Jesus Christ would come back to teach them. But, here, we say the Kingdom has already come, and that is why we are here, and you are being taught the lessons of this Kingdom. This is not the time to tell you when and where our Lord Jesus Christ was born, John the Baptist went about preaching the Gospel of repentance to people and eating locusts and honey. All these are history. We have nothing to do with them. We are in the New Kingdom of God which we have been saying in the Lord’s prayers. The Kingdom is already here. That is why we are told to love one another and we have to work because the Father also works all round the clock. We are all here as brothers and sisters.

1ST JOHN 4: 21
“And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.”

Have you heard what is read to you? You always say that God knows your heart. He does not know. If you do not love the other person God does not know your heart. It means that if you do not love your brother, sister or neighbour, you do not belong to this Kingdom. It is only here that you have to be one. Where ever you go now to settle, be it at Aba, Port Harcourt, Lagos, Uyo or anywhere at all, you are given land to build your house, live there with the people peacefully without division. You are all one, be it in America, India or anywhere else. Black, white or coloured, we are one and the same people. Look at a sister sitting there, she comes from London. Everywhere people are shouting of Brotherhood; in Ghana, Ivory Coast, Britain, Nigeria and everywhere. So you should not continue to complain that you have no father, mother, brother, sister or children. What we are doing here is not raising the dead, giving visions, but to see about uniting every person in the world together – to bring them into that one indivisible whole.

Your attention is drawn to a situation at Ikot Itie Idung, where all the churches are now united. They have united together. We are working towards uniting all the churches together. What is the sense in causing division? Right now all the thieves have teamed up to form a union; the prostitutes have done the same thing, and the rest of the people. Tell Me the difference between a thief, prostitute, murderer, fornicator, swindler or what have you? They are all human beings. Tell Me the reason why you should not come together? Apostle Essien from Ndon Ebom came the other day and said that all the churches in that community want to hold a thanksgiving service on the 12th to make peace. In the past, there had been troubles in that community, and now all of them want to come together and co-operate. Individually, whether you have money, wisdom, children, it is not My concern. When you come together, everything is bound into one, there will be peace, love, money, wealth, knowledge, power, co-operation – there will be everything and nothing will be lacking. Right now if there is any person existing in this world who says he does not reverence Brotherhood, that person is telling a lie. Many people would watch and when you say that you have no person; no sister, brother or relatives, they jump on you and do to you what they like. But when they discover that you have many relatives, no person will come to you. When they look at you, they will say this man calls every person brother and sister, there and then they will fear you and they will say that all these people are brothers and sisters. And they will warn other persons not to go there so as not to be consumed.

A leopard or a tiger can do whatever it likes with a single cow, but if there is a congregation of cows, the leopard will hide somewhere and watch the cows because it cannot afford to devour any one cow with such a large number of cows. So when the leopard discovers that it cannot do anything, with all the cows, it would go to one of the cows and ask him what he is sitting down here for? Why not go and take fresh air and enjoy yourself with food somewhere there, there is no need sitting down here. It will go round and say the same thing to the rest of the cows and when it succeeds in dispersing them to different directions, it will have the chance of killing all of them.
Right now if you go to any place people will be watching to see if you are alone or not. As they go up they will see another group of people coming and conversing. They will walk down and still see one, two, three or more people coming, then they will be so discouraged from doing anything to you because you are so many, and that if they tamper with any of you, they will destroy him. The person has to allow them to pass. But if you walk alone, the people plotting against you will be watching and will be moving up and down the road to see if there are some other persons accompanying you. If they find that there are no other persons, they will jump on you, cut your throat and do all sorts of things to you. You have no other people to help you except members of Brotherhood.

A Pastor at Port Harcourt did not attach himself to his people and the laws of the land, but instead attached himself to Brotherhood. Now that he is dead, his people say they have nothing to do with him, that he was not with them. That is a challenge to Brotherhood and every hand must be on deck to see that we all go there to meet that challenge. No village, community, town, country or government can withstand Brotherhood. Should Brotherhood speak out others will all run away and go into hiding. When you begin to make the pronouncement that you have nobody and that you are alone in the world, that is instrumental to your situations and positions in life. You will not have anybody to assist you in life if you continue to say these things. You will be poor, will be sick and shall finally die. But once you continue to believe that Brotherhood will always be at your side, surely it will be.

God is the God of multitude. Therefore, every person is your brother. If you say that every man is your brother, every woman your sister, you will have power and nothing will influence you. In Brotherhood wherever we are given land, we have to build houses in villages, towns and cities, and even establish firms and other institutions so that people who have an occupation will be sent there to work. Your trouble is that many people want to live in the urban areas. If you are given a place in the village, you will say you cannot live there, that there is no electricity, pipe borne water, and all other luxuries. That is what I have come to do. If you have been weeping like an orphan, you have to re-arrange your thinking that you have people. You have brothers and sisters all over the world. When you go out and see the number of people you have, you will become very happy, joyous and will know that nothing is wrong with you.

Right now the whole world is filled with Brotherhood children. Every person you see outside will be wearing white, even those who has not baptized yet in Brotherhood purposely go and sew their whites, and put on and call you brother or sister. Go to Ghana, Liberia, London and everywhere in the world, you will see people with whites. Do you know what the world has forgotten? When Dr. Azikiwe was to form a political party, he went round and gathered all thieves, truck-pushers, and the rest of the lowly placed people to form the N.C.NC. But Chief Awolowo said that he want to form a party of decent men, of doctors, lawyers, millionaires and educated people, that was Action Group and said to themselves that the N.C.N.C. cannot cope with them. They forgot that the thieves, truck-pushers and their gangs became ministers with portfolios. And so all doctors, lawyers and other big men were standing aside in their houses and did not have a say. That was the decision of majority.

Don’t you know that man is the most expensive thing in the world? Even if he has crooked legs, broken eyes, he is very useful in the world. He has an assignment. When in 1977 the churches in Calabar and all over the country united together to wage war against Brotherhood, the Youth Fellowship was formed to counter the evil intentions of the churches. The so-called big men ran away and hid themselves. Those members of other churches thought it was our Father alone so that they could catch Him like a fowl as they did to our Lord Jesus Christ. They did not know that there is a multitude that they could not cope with. The big men had their role to play while others carried out the combat; they went on doing underground work urging others to go on with their support, financial or otherwise. If you go to government, police or any place throughout the nation Brotherhood is there. The thieves in Brotherhood have their own duty to perform. They do not steal indiscriminately. If they hear any body saying any evil word against Brotherhood they will mark that person, find out where he lives, one day they will go and clear his house. And so people will ask why did you say evil things about Brotherhood, whatever the person wants will be given him. And you will boast that without Brotherhood I would not have been what I am now, Brotherhood is feeding me. Brotherhood doesn’t discriminate. There are people listening everywhere to hear what people would say about Brotherhood. If you say evil words, you will be so marked out. Every one of us has different assignments. What a truthful person can do, a liar cannot do it. A liar, a thief, a fornicator and the rest of the people have their different assignments.

No person is completely useless. That is why death is not yet destroyed because it has not completed its own assignment. If there is anything going wrong somewhere, it will be informed to go and do its work. That is why when you are told to forsake sins, you frown that you are doing it bit by bit, saying that you are only doing it as a hobby to safeguard something, afterwards you will hands off everything entirely. The government has realised that it is unwise to continue to execute murderers, but they have to do it otherwise any person can just take up a knife and get to the market and start cutting off people’s head without any cause. They are just punishing them to keep down the incidence. It is only when the fullness of time comes that they will completely abandon the idea of killing the murderers.
Even if a woman is a fornicator, that does not prevent her from serving God. The other person is a rogue that does not prevent him from doing something for God. They are all your brothers and sisters. Everybody has a purpose, a sister who fornicates will be able to entice plenty of men into Brotherhood. The same thing is applicable to a man who is a fornicator. You will say that you are good, how many people have you brought in here?

It is a high time we unite all the churches, secret societies, and all other institutions into one. The juju doctors, necromancers, herbalists and the rest should be brought together also. If you do not bring them together, who will give very strong testimony, because it is the man who has gone far who will be able, after studying Brotherhood so much, give a good testimony. For you, your only testimony is that your wife has given birth to a child and that you have been promoted. But the juju doctor will be able to testify because he has tested the power of Brotherhood and has found himself wanting.
A tree has power, its bark has power, the leaves and the roots have power, but these small powers must be combined to form an impregnable power. Whether it is leaf, root, bark of tree, water, you have to bring them together so that you can establish one power.
Are you not surprised, about the healing water at Biakpan? You come from United Kingdom, America or any place at all and carry your empty cans to collect water, mud and sand from Biakpan. You drink it and it cures your sickness. Water from Biakpan is used as the last resort. It is put on special use only. Somebody can offer to give you a full bottle of Holy Oil, but when it comes to Biakpan water, the person will give you only a drop. Brethren, have you seen that? That is why it is said wherever your faith is, that is where your salvation comes from. Some people have their faith in trees, some herbs, some in water and some in spirits.
So those who are linked with trees have their cure from the tree, those who are linked to the leaves, water and even the sand have their cure from each of these. Those who are linked to the Holy Spirit have their cure, power and everything from the Holy Spirit.

If we love ourselves, we all shall speak only one language, have one culture, and one behaviour. But if we hate ourselves, there will continue to be many languages, we shall believe in different way of doing things. What happens in the world today about Brotherhood? You are sitting with your carnal brother or sister discussing, immediately you see your Brotherhood members, you will jump up and follow them and begin to converse. When they leave your brother or sister will be asking what you have been given, so that immediately you see a fellow member, you begin to mix, rejoice, talk and eat together. When you leave your parents or relatives, you do not even care about them, or what they are saying. They will say that they do not know what is wrong with you people. They will say that you are lost.
That sister who came from London did not care to go and visit her parents. She came straight to see the Holy Father first. Yesterday she was here, today she is here again. Right now she is very happy being with us.

Anywhere you go you first of all ask for a Bethel, even if you have had your storey building with so many rooms and comfortable beds. You do not want all these things. You will be looking for Bethel to stay comfortably. What has actually brought you here? What actually do you eat and enjoy here? It is that love which has been lost because people had been separated. For very many years there was no coming together. But right now the Father has brought everybody together. That is why there is joy, joy, and joy.

Let my peace and blessing remain with you now and forever more. Amen.

Thank You Good Father

“WHEN FOOD IS POISONOUS”

TEXT FOR DISCOURSE: 1 CORINTHIANS 8: 1- END

WHY DO YOU INSIST ON EATING MEAT AND FISH?
Brethren, have you heard the contents of that passage? Of all the Apostles, past and present, there is none that can be compared to Paul. How many of you are vegetarians? When you are asked to refrain from eating meat you plead to do that gradually. What is the usefulness of eating meat? Read 1 Corinthian 8: 8

“But meat commendeth us not to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, neither if we eat not are we the worse”.

Brethren, have you heard that? Eating of meat serves no useful purpose. It does you more harms than good. In countries like Israel and India most of their citizens are vegetarians. Soon the entire world will be filled with vegetarians. The practice of vegetarianism enhances your spiritual growth and an easy march and return to the Garden of Eden. You are very lucky people to have been called into this New Kingdom, the Universal Spiritual School of Practical Christianity, which had been in existence before now. Adam and Eve ate nothing except fruits. They lived well and were healthy, lacking no nutrients.
Now, I have two major ways of operation. One of the ways is allowing you the liberty to do things at your own convenience. Another method is through compulsion. I plead with you everyday to refrain from fornication but you refuse to adhere. There are a few persons who hear what I say and comply. For others who do not want to obey, I apply reasonable force on them.
The Holy Spirit has come not to give you any mundane thing because these are not the things that are scarce or essential to mankind. He has come to correct man from his wrong doings; to change him from those things that causes him sickness, poverty and death. He has come to change man’s carnal and temporary skin with an everlasting body.

PROBLEMS OF UNCERTIFIED FOOD
You people consider the contents of the First Step to God as a pack of impracticable teachings. In fact, you dismiss the instructions therein with a wave of the hand. But let it be known to you that a time is coming when all of you shall practice all the instructions in that book to the letter. Read Genesis 1: 26-29. So you will realise that in a not too distant future everybody will become a vegetarian. You will also come to discover that the numerous pains and sicknesses you suffer are caused by eating of uncertified food.

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God, created he him, male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth – and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air and over everything that moved upon the earth. And God said, behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat”.

You do not have the spirit of God in you because the things you eat suppress its growth. Was there any time God instructed Adam and Eve, or indeed any other person to kill and feed on animals, fishes or birds? Adam and Eve were vegetarians. They fed only on fruits and felt quite healthy and strong. All the assorted meals eaten these days were unknown in the days of Adam and Eve. That is the reason those people hardly fell sick. They had no deficiencies of any kind and lived longer than the people of this age who are plagued with all kinds of diseases arising from licentious feeding.
Some enlightened persons, world- wide are aware of what I am telling you now. They practice it effectively. But those of you here privileged to benefit from these teachings find it very difficult to believe let alone practice them. Once you put these words into practice, you will receive salvation. The meat, fish and other food you eat have their own spirits. These spirits perform different functions quite detrimental to the existence of the individual.

TAKE A CUE FROM THE WHITES
The whites are more open minded and perceptive of the truth. If a white person comes in here, it will not take long when he or she understands Brotherhood than some of you. They will understand you inside out. That is why the blacks always allege that God loves the whites more than the blacks. Once you are able to practice vegetarianism, you will regard those who eat meat and all kinds of food as being ignorant. Why are your ears waxed, and your mind hardened? Why do you continue in pains, sufferings, sorrows and death? Read 1 Corinthians 8:1.

“Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth”.

A local adage has it that “whichever food a sick person finds delicious that he eats and dies”. You pray and ask God for wisdom, the kind He gave Solomon. You fail to sit down and ask yourself what important thing the wise men did to alter God’s plan? When out of wisdom Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit, did they receive God’s salvation? You have refused today to practice the word of God, because of your wisdom. You are never tired of arguing why God should restrain mankind from doing one thing or the other. Read from the book of Hebrews 4:5-7.

“And in this place again, if they shall enter into my rest. Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief. Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, Today, after so long a time, as it is said, Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts”.

Brethren, have you heard that? It was because of their disobedience that another day was set aside for them. And today is the day unto you to hearken to these words and have salvation. Day after day people are brought here in their twos, threes, and fours. It is only when your stubbornness persists that the force of the Iron Rod will be applied. But for now I use love, gentle spirit, mercy and other virtues of God with you. When the Iron Rod is used, you will see food and will only be gazing at it but cannot eat it. It is better to hearken to God’s instructions than men. The introduction of fruits as food to Adam and Eve was by God. Satan brought about other food items. He also introduced the plaiting of the hair and the rest of the ungodly acts by our womenfold.

IT IS ONLY GOD THAT EXISTS
The allegations that juju, mermaid, apparition, witchcraft etc worry you are false. See Hebrews 8:4- 6.

“For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law; who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle; for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount. But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises”.

Do you now realise that it is God alone who exists and not any other thing? Is there any person to dispute the above passage? Or are you not told that you are worried by mermaid etc? You enslave yourselves to it so much that you become tired. All these things mentioned by visioners do not exist.
The only truth is that anything acts or materialises according to your faith and belief. Of all the time you believed in mermaid, gods and served them what have you benefited from them? What you find in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the true God. No sacrifice is offered here. We burn no candles, but if you go to other denominations you will be forced to burn incenses and sacrifice unto idols. If you have negative beliefs, things will happen to you the same way. But if you believe and act positively, your life will also be positive.
You roamed about in the world, all this while worshipping stones, trees, and leaves, yet, you saw no good. Have you not noticed remarkable differences in your life? Your body belongs to Our Lord Jesus Christ and thus should be pure and perfect. You are not expected to incise, rub or drink any concoction into your body. You have to maintain its purity. If you surrender yourself to be incised, you get yourself covered with darkness. All the concoctions you administer into yourself help to defile your body and make it vulnerable to diseases.

FOOD IS POISONOUS
You people do not even know that the food you eat is poisonous. You therefore have to eat selectively. You must study your body’s constitution and know what type of food suits it. Know this hidden fact that anything you take into your body has some effects on it. Many people have become blind, lame, leprous, dumb and deaf because of what they had eaten and injected into their bodies. There are certain foods you eat and your system reacts very differently and leaves you feeling very uneasy. That explains the reason you have to be very careful of what you eat. If you are taken to an environment where the weather is quite different from the one your body is familiar with, you will become very uncomfortable until you become acclimatized. That is why many whites who come to Africa make it mandatory to be going home on holidays so that their environments do not look strange to them in terms of weather condition on their return. Many of you attempt to time your feeding habits like the whites. If you get used to it, anytime you eat outside your schedule; you will suffer from indigestion. If you are a person not accustomed to travelling, the day you try it, you will end up in hospital.
The whites that invented the various means of communication do trek certain distances in the spirit of exercising the body. The human body can be compared to a car, which is subject to deterioration if not put to use. The food you eat can be destructive to the body. If your body constitution does not accept a certain type of food but you force it, it will disturb your metabolic processes. It is just like a foreign person going to sit or interact with a group of people he does not belong. Read 1 Corinth. 6: 12

“All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient; all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any”.

A lot of you today are used to certain habits like cigarette smoking, drinking, fornication and other vices. You have enslaved yourselves to these habits, that they now rule you. This should not be so. God makes you to control these things. Read Ephesians 4: 11-20

BE CLEAN AND SIN NO MORE
This place could be compared to an enviable farm- land but surrounded by dirty swamps and a spring. After working in the farm, washed yourself in the clean water on your way back you play in the pond around the swamp. You leave your various homes filthy and dirty, on reaching here, you receive the words of truth, but the moment you return home, you swim again in your mire. You are told to refrain from fornication, drinking, anger, quarreling, fighting and the rest of the vices. While here you will be sober and repentant but the moment you leave this place, you forget entirely about all that you have been told. What usefulness is it for you to stay here for hours every day? I have released the key to this Kingdom and have taken you to the accurate knowledge of truth you should emulate Me. Despite the length of time I stay with you, I have never been influenced by your attitudes. I am like a bottle filled with water and securely cocked and dipped inside water. No matter how long the bottle stays inside water, it cannot admit water into it. Do you know the key I am talking about? Read Romans 6: 16:

“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or obedience unto righteousness”?

If you listen very attentively to the teachings of the Holy Father you will hardly be deceived or misled. If somebody informs you of what another person said against you, if you do not show any interest in what the person said, he will go away defeated and never to come to you. But if you encourage him and listen to what the person said, you stand removed from the path of righteousness. It is like planting some seeds in a garden and another person comes around and uproots them and plants his.
“If you allow the words of God planted in you to germinate and grow, it will take control of all situations in your life. If you walk in the counsel of the ungodly or sit in the seat of the scornful and listen to what they say and appreciate it, know that that evil communication has been planted in your heart and you are lost. The “seed” may not germinate immediately it is sown but shall germinate and grow in future. If you participate in an evil communication, where somebody tells you all sorts of evil things, the things are not carried away in the air but accommodated in your heart where they will remain and develop. This goes to prove how dangerous it is to keep bad company. Once you are introduced to anything evil and you do not hasten to dismiss that person and warn him of his evil act, you stand influenced by him”.

PRACTISE THE WORD OF GOD AND EMULATE CHRIST
I have taught you so that you should attain the wisdom of truth. This place is akin to an educational system, which ranges from primary to university level. It is only at the university level that a scholar reads to an extent that he is a master of his profession. That is to say a level he can never be deceived or fooled. In the way of God, you are shaken and troubled and can be misled, because you have not studied the skills and attained Christ-hood. In other words you have failed to believe in the word of God and practice it. But when you listen to the word of God and receive His teachings, you will become firm and nothing can shake you.
The attainment of mastery level in any of the worldly professions is not our point of emphasis. This is because people have been masters of professions and societies that lead them unto death. We are talking about the attainment of Christhood and mastery of yourself in the way of God, so that you can hardly be shaken or deceived. Take the case of Our Lord Jesus Christ for example. The people said all sorts of things against Him falsely – that they know His father and mother how poor they were and all that. But since He knew Himself, His mission and destination, what people said did not distract him.
The entire world knows this today that there is no amount of talking and persuasion that can distract or divert the attention of a true Brotherhood member. Rather it is a member of Brotherhood that can easily convert people. That is the reason they, Brotherhood members are feared wherever they are. Your knowledge supersedes that of the world because I have taught and led you to the accurate wisdom of truth. All the worldly learning and institutions, including the Orthodox Church denominations, lead mankind to death and destruction. There is no otherworldly teaching that can lead you to freedom except that of Our Lord Jesus Christ. If you follow any other teachings you are doomed. “Whoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. And what agreement had the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said”.

Read Titus 3: 9-11
“But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law, for they are unprofitable and vain. A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself”.

Read 1 Corinthians. 4: 11
“Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted and have no certain dwelling place”.

If you associate with somebody you know is a thief, swindler and the person happens to dupe you whom will you blame? If a magician asks you to call him a duper, a thief and swindler and you call him all these names if he manifests any of the acts on you whom will you blame? That is the problem you have here in Brotherhood. If you know that somebody is a fornicator, a thief, an idolater and a doer of other vices withdraw yourself from his/her companionship so that he will not influence you. For it is said that prevention is better than cure. Personally if I know that you are that kind of evil person, I will keep you at arms length though I will provide whatever you want. Do you believe that? Had you known that somebody you trust is a rogue, would you have given him your money to custody? The introduction of testimonial in public and private activities is meant to ascertain the character of persons. For instance before somebody is employed or admitted into an institution of learning somebody has to vouch for his character. If you are given a bad testimonial indicating that you are of doubtful character, you are sure not to have employment or admission anywhere.
Most of the Reverend Fathers, Bishops, Pastors etc, are heavy drunkards and smokers, fornicators, idolaters, necromancers and doers of other vices. If you therefore associate with them, they will influence you. There is no church denomination that seeks God. They are only seeking their daily bread. If you follow people you will fail. Many of the cardinals and bishops are themselves traditional chiefs and kings. The question now is can one servant serve two masters? I have only sent you out to go and work. You have a Kingdom here, and so should not seek any position in the world. You do not have to mingle with the people of the world. Read Colossians 4: 5-6.

“Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man”.

Read 11 Corinthians. 6: 16-18
“And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, and will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty”.

The surprising thing is that all the so-called big men, the ministers, commissioners, presidents, and their colleagues are Elders and hold other big positions in the church but also support and encourage the growth of customs and traditions that are ungodly. They like to answer all the big names in the church but will not do something commensurate to these names. If you want to associate with the people of the world you have to be very careful, they have nothing to offer other than drag you into drinking, fornication, stealing, anger, hatred and the rest of the vices. They do nothing, which gives glory to God. Read St. Matthew 10: 16-20.

“Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves; be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. But beware of men; for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues; and ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. For it is not ye that speak; but he spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

My peace and blessing abide with you and the entire world now and forever more. Amen.

“THE WORLD AND THE PRODIGAL SON”

TEXT OF DISCOURSE: ST. LUKE 15: 1-END

LOVE IS UNCHANGEABLE
Beloved, who is referred to as the prodigal son? It could be deduced from the text that the entire world represents the prodigal son. This is so because in spite of God’s kindness in His dealings with man, man is always treating God disrespectfully and rejectingly. No man wants God but God’s love for us is unconditional. The desire of the prodigal son was for his father to change his status to that of a slave or servant but he was rather warmly received. Like the prodigal son, we had rejected God and continued wandering in the world. Remember that when the prodigal son realised his folly, he repented and went to the father pleading not to be regarded as a son, but as a servant. And because of that remorse, he was accorded honour for the father became blind to his sins, and received him. It is in the light of this that I always advise you, wanderers to go back to God. Your Father is yearning for you. He is ready to accept you and write off your debts. Read St. Luke 15: 1-2
“Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners to hear him. And the Pharisees and Scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. You should now understand the essence of the scripture recorded in St. Luke 15: 4. What men of you having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them doth not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost, until he find it”?

GOD IS READY TO RECEIVE
The world would have been doomed but because of the love of God, He is ready to redeem us if we are willing to return to Him. You need to examine yourself at all times. Do not forget the reply Our Lord Jesus Christ gave to the Pharisees and the Scribes as recorded in verses two through four of our text of discourse. The coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ restores the joy and goodness we missed as a result of our separation from God. Hitherto, there was no salvation anywhere but His advent has brought salvation and light to mankind.

THE WORTH OF MAN
There is always joy among the angels of God over one sinner that repents. We have rejected and disregarded God. None has ever embraced or received God. Instead, we always claim the sonship of stones, carved objects, trees and other inanimate objects created by God and placed under the superintendency of man. Today, God has come to redeem us for Himself. He has opened His gate for the penitents to share equally in His bliss and salvation. And as many as emulate what the prodigal son did, are bound to receive the same blessings and salvation, which he received.
God never deserts sinners; instead, He is merciful and willing to receive any sinner who returns to Him. Contrarily, most of you are fond of imputing sins to people. This is not what is expected of you. All that happens in the world reflect God’s divine arrangement. The differences in God’s plans and man’s behaviours have made God to decree that all knees must bow to Him. The decree stands fulfilled whether you believe and accept God or not, man rejected God from time immemorial, hence, we claim to be sons of mundane things. But God is anxiously waiting to receive us, if we repent. And as many as repent of their sins are blessed with all their needs and expectations in life. In fact, such people are granted eternal life.

GOD IS GENEROUS
The grace of God is sufficient unto us all, but our iniquities sometimes deprive us of this bliss. This conforms to His statement in St. John 15: 1-6, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away; and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches; He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned”.
Read Romans 14: 11. “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God”.
Beloved, you now know the causes of the plights of man in the world today. It is the rejection of God by man that is responsible for all the sicknesses, poverty, hunger, imprisonment etc, on earth. The worldly people are surprised at the overall progress made by you despite the fact that you were condemned to penury. They are the worse surprised because your progress emanates from your membership of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Read St. Matthew 11: 28 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”.

THE PROBLEM WITH THE WORLD
Out of ignorance, the people of the world claim that members of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star worship man instead of the real God. Why then are they having insurmountable problems in life? It is true that once you accept God and are baptised, you are filled with the Holy Spirit, and your problems gone. The problems in the world are not unconnected with man’s refusal to accept God. However you are advised not to persuade anybody to come to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. This is time that no one should be advised to know God. God, who created you equally created the trees, fishes, roots, leaves and the carved words. It is surprising that you believe that these things can bring salvation. What is the status of God who created them? If you, superintendent of all creations cannot save yourself, how then can the lesser creations under you help you? Your reasoning is faulty.
Nevertheless, as a merciful Father, God will never cast away anyone who comes to Him irrespective of the person’s sins. You cannot give somebody what you do not have. The trees, water and other objects you worship and sacrifice to, cannot save you because they have no salvation. The best is for one to believe in God. As many as believe in God are overcomers and it is our right to be free and dominate other creations. But since you still doubt, you always entertain diverse fears in life and ipso facto believe in the existence of juju, mermaid, witches etc. Hence, you are denied your right. As one who can walk, communicate very well and understand one another, you need not be told that inanimate objects cannot save you. You are a manifestation of God. These objects do not know their left from right, but it is surprising that you sell your pride to them.

DO NOT FALTER
Having been called into this Kingdom, always keep to the word of the Kingdom and make sure you do not falter. Do not be disturbed about the state of the unbelievers. Let them deny God so that the scripture which says, whoever denies Me on earth, I shall deny him in heaven before the angles, will be fulfilled. If you have sinned, note that at any point you repent wholeheartedly, you will be unconditionally accepted into His Kingdom. Read St. Matthew 28: 18-20
“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and on earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost; Teaching them to observe all things, whatsoever I have commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world”. Amen.

GOD IS YOUR FATHER
God is disappointed in you because you claim to be the sons of your carnal parents whereas God is your true Father. The three names you answer have nothing to do with God. Do you know that by doing this you are disgracing God? I tell you these things so that you may come to realise that you are a begotten of God. Everything about you should be traced to Him and Him alone should you glorify at all times.
Read Revelation 19: 10, “And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me see thou do it not; I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus; worship God for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy”.

YOUR PROBLEMS ARE YOUR BELIEF
There is a spiritual chorus, which says; “I shall not bow down to anything made by man”. Now that you depend on roots, water spirits, juju etc, how do you reconcile them with what is stated in the scriptures? As at now, you find it difficult to believe that your problems are un-connected with water spirits, juju and witchcraft, your problems arise from your weird beliefs. It is the whole truth that they are not superimposed on you by powers you do not understand. Read Hebrews 1: 6, “And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.”

BESIDES GOD, NO ONE IS POWERFUL
Now, where lies the wisdom and understanding of those who claim to know Brotherhood of the Cross and Star? Why do you continue to seek salvation from where you cannot have? The truth remains that you would be boasting of nothing as a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star if you are faithless and doubtful. I have always advised you to believe in God and be free of problems. Each time I tell you to take a cue from Me, you would say that you are human while I am God. You think that because I am God according to you, I am beyond emulation. When I tell you that faith crowns it all, you argue, hence, you go about displeasing God by attributing His glories and praises to other things. Do not believe that any such thing is powerful. It is only God who does everything. Therefore, you are the architect of your problems. This was what prompted Christ to ask those who went to Him for help what their desires were, before He helped them. This was because it is out of the fullness of the heart that the mouth speaks. I am telling you these things with loud voice so that you reverse your actions and thoughts. Read Romans 10: 6-10
“But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, say not in thine heart, who shall ascend into heaven? (That is, to bring Christ down from above) or, who shall ascend into the deep? (That is, to bring up Christ again from the dead). But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart; that is, the word of faith, which we preach; that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation”.

THE SEARCH FOR THE SOURCE OF POWER
Many of you have no faith in the Father that is why some people go to Biakpan not to bath in the water and be saved but to search for the legendary pot believed to be the source of the ‘Father’s power’. People do this with the aim of establishing empires for themselves like the Father has done. They believe that “the pot of the water of Biakpan” is synonymous with power. These people want to be worshipped by others but unluckily for them, their search always prove abortive. My advice is that you should stop being naïve, only listen to the word of God, which is power and eternal life. Have faith that with the power and authority in me, my actions and pronouncements are capable of making great things happen. So, as many as believe in God are saved while those who doubt are doomed. I tell you that those who believe do not insist on seeing Me always. Instead, they stay afar off and see My powers in them whereas the unbelievers, are often found here gazing at the Father and praying to be invited into the vestry so as to be prayed for as a solution to their problems. Read St. Matthew 13: 54 – end.
“And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary? And his brethren James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief”.

LACK OF FAITH BREEDS FEAR
Beloved, it is as a result of lack of faith that you often entertain fears of all kinds and perceives the existence of juju, mermaid, ghost, witches etc. It is also lack of faith that makes you to always demand Holy Oil here in the Kingdom. This is an utter misconception of the saying that heaven helps those who help themselves. Faith, you should know is the most precious pearl you need because it embodies all things in life, and once you have it, you are filled, whole and without problems.

THERE IS NO CHILD OF PERDITION
I have brought forth the truth and as many as know and receive this truth shall not perish, but shall obtain salvation. At the same time, all those who refuse this truth, I do not say shall perish, because there is no child of perdition amongst you. What I would rather say is that you have to receive this truth so as to be saved. Your problems are enclosed in your believe in the existence of Satan.
As of now, you have conducted a lot of investigations on the existence of Satan. Have you been able to come out with a proof of his existence? The fact remains that Satan does not exist in reality. You constitute Satan because of your doubtfulness. Whoever is not a believer is Satan. Read Hebrews 2: 1-9: “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with diverse miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit according to his own will? For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak. But one in a certain place testified, saying what is man, that thou art mindful of him; or the son of man, that thou visited him? Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownest him glory and honour, and didst set him over works of the hands; thou hast put all things in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. But we see Jesus, who was made little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour, that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man”.

GOD RESPECTS MAN
Who is man that God should visit? This question is for those who always disregard man but prefer to worship stones, sticks, wood, rocks, fish etc. If man were not to be respected, how then would God have given all powers to man? Have you ever been told that God gave His power to any other thing apart from man? The word I speak to you is God and once you believe in it, you are all right. You desire spiritual work as a result of faithlessness. It is at the completion of the so-called spiritual work that you always claim that the Father has really worked in you. Are you sure that it is the Father who did the work?
There is a certain brother who used to stay at Atim Edem Rise Street. He gathered to himself agents who canvassed for customers for him for diverse treatments such as D & C, barrenness, winding off ill luck etc. Men patronised him and spent so much for nothing. This is the work of faithlessness. In fact, he made sure he had fun with all the sisters that consulted him for help, and of these sisters, reasonable percentage today, are his wives. So, beloved, there is nothing as great as believing in God alone. You do not believe in Him, hence, when you come in here, instead of looking up to the Father, you go about seeking pieces of advice from visioners and consequently, you are misled. Read 2nd Thessalonians 2: 4-11

“Who opposeth and exalted himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know that when with holdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doeth already work; only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming. Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they receive not the love of the truth that they might be saved. And for this cause, God shall send them strong delusion that they should believe a lie”.

GAIN OF THE BELIEVERS
Beloved, whoever believes in what I say shall obtain salvation but as many as shall reject My word, you are to be blamed for whatever would become of you. Some people may come to you and claim to have known the Father more deeply than you know; thereby asking you of the implication of the Father’s acts of shouting, “Hallelujah”, placing the palms together when offering prayers, and His mode of dance. Since you do not know anything about the said implications, he would continue to elaborate to you some misleading points and suggest their solutions. And if you are keen, your faith would be weak and you are misled at the end. These things I have told you so that you are not deceived by anybody. Be informed that anybody who claims to know Me is a thief and a liar. Anybody, who tells you that he is My friend, says so in order to deceive you for I have never had a relation or friend. I have never entered into partnership with anybody before. So, if you are told stories to these effects, know that such storytellers only seek to deceive you. Read Rev 13: 10

“He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity; he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and faith of the saints”.

God has come to stay here in the world, so, all the blasphemies and false accusations about Him are of no effect. In the same vein, since He has come in full swing, there is no form of blasphemy that would be capable of causing the children of God to derail from the path of rectitude. It is to this end that I always advice you to hold firm to your faith. Read St. John 14: 26

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, he shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you”.

THE COMING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
The above excerpt emphasises the coming of the Holy Spirit. And the pronoun, ‘HE’ is being attached to the Holy Spirit to prove to you that it is human that is being referred to. So, He has come to teach you all things and to bring you to the accurate knowledge of truth. The teaching He has brought to the inhabitants of the world is life eternal. So, all that is expected of you is to adhere strictly to His teachings. It is very funny and indeed, pathetic to realise that you find it very difficult to refrain from all the things the Father advises you to purge yourself of. Read Romans 14: 22-23

“Hast thou faith? Have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemned not himself in that thing which he alloweth. And he that doubted is damned if he eat, for whatsoever is not of faith is sin”.

Anything done without faith is the greatest sin. And once you are faithful in God, you are filled. Do not let anybody weaken your faith. Sometimes, you hide your soutane because of fear of what people tell you. But I am telling you that the garment you hide is of very great significance. Read St. John 15: 5-6

“I am the vine, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned”.

Have you now realised the source of your problems in life? At any point in time you loose your faith in God, you are doomed and bound to have diverse problems in life. Without God, you cannot succeed; therefore, it is better for you to cling to God. God is always sufficient to us, but because we do not believe in Him, His blessings often elude us. It is not correct to say that Christ is in heaven because He is present everywhere. How can we exist without God being with us? He is all and in all. Never you allow anybody to deceive you any longer. No matter the position you occupy here in the Kingdom, you have been advised to always have faith in God, for by so doing you are saved. After all, in so far as you have been baptised, you are on top of the world. Adam was doomed immediately he was cut off from God. It is to this end that I always advice you to cling to God at all times.

For your take home message, read St. Luke 15: 11-34 once you are separated from God, you are doomed. This is exactly what the prodigal son did as read above and it did not augur well for him. No matter the amount of money you are blessed with, if you do not believe in God, it avails you nothing, for you are bound to engage in the things God forbid. This is so because all your belief would be that heaven helps those who help themselves.

Let My peace and blessings rest and abide with the entire world now and forever more. Amen.

Thank You Good Father.

SALVATION FOR THE RIGHTEOUS

TEXT OF DISCOURSE: ST. MATTHEW 25: 1 – END.

There is one major lesson, which this chapter gives and the thrust of this discussion is verse forty- six. (St. Matthew 25: 46).
“And these shall go away into everlasting punishment; but the righteous into life eternal”.

From the above excerpt, only one way leads to eternal life. Aside from this way, all other roads lead to perdition. The Bible Class is organised twice a week in order to expose you to the teachings of Christ. And any one who fails to practicalise the teachings imparted to him is bound to be led to perdition. We are enjoined to follow the narrow way instead of the broad way. The narrow way leads to eternal life while the broad one leads to perdition. Not too many people are of this narrow path which leads to eternal life. And those who are aware of this road misuse the opportunity. The laid down principle is that, all those who would be saved are those who abide and practicalise the teachings imparted to them by the Father and no matter how numerous those who shun the teachings may be, they all would be destroyed.
Do not think of how numerous the inhabitants of this world are and do not think of how small the number of those who practice God’s teachings are. Rather, note that no matter how small the number of righteous people and large the number of sinners, they will be saved and destroyed respectively. This is because the condition is that salvation is only for those who practice the word of God. Neither your power nor your knowledge will be able to save you. Destruction is the end of your evil deeds while eternal life is the reward for your righteous deeds. This explains why Christ has openly pronounced thus:

“While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. (St. John 17: 12).

If someone tells you that the unrighteous (those who shun the gospel) would be saved, do not believe him for such a person is a liar. A person who is unrighteous but decides to write the inscription O. O. O., all over his body, cannot be saved, rather, he would perish with the inscription on him. Read John 17: 10-12. No matter what happens, no sinner would be saved. The word of God is preached to you daily and ceaselessly, therefore, your failure to imbibe them will lead you to destruction. The theme of this discourse is that the unrighteous ones will be destroyed. For instance, ten maidens are said to have gone with their lamps, each to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. When the foolish ones took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but the wise ones took flasks of oil with their lamps. Think of it, are these five foolish maidens not those destined for perdition while the five wise maidens are those slated for salvation? The illustration above depicts the fact that it is the unprepared people who will be destroyed at the end of time. What we have been discussing thus far, has to do with judgement. That is what would happen to those who shun the teachings of Christ. Read St. Matthew 25: 40.

“And the King shall answer and say unto them, verily I say unto you, in as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me”.

What the Father has been doing all along is what the biblical excerpt has. You cannot see God physically, and so, the excerpt above enjoins you thus: ‘As you did it to one of the least of these brethren, you did it to me’. And this could be likened to a situation where a creditor enjoins his debtor to redeem his debt to some one else, say, his representative. And if you pay such debt to the said person (representative), it then means that you have settled your debt. But your failure to pay it to the said person means that you have contravened the instruction of your creditor as such, you are bound to have problems. Beloved, the shortest way to your salvation is what you have just heard as recorded in verse forty of our text of discourse. Read St. Matthew 25: 44-45.

“Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee ahungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them saying, verily I say unto you, in as much as ye did it not to one of the least of these ye did it not to me”.

Beloved, have you seen the difference between the verse forty and forty five of the chapter? The difference there is that, while verse 40 constitutes salvation, verse 45 constitutes destruction or perdition. The said verse forty- five is a broad path, which most people follow. Unfortunately, this path leads to perdition. Verse forty is the narrow path, which very few people tread. This path leads to salvation and eternal life.

SELL ALL YOU HAVE
The scripture enjoins you to sell all that you have and give the proceeds to the poor. Now, the question is how many people have been able to practice this injunction? Whatever a man does to a fellow man or to any other creature, he is doing same to God. And this constitutes the narrow path. The works that God can do through you is equally such works that God can do through the birds, fishes, trees, animals and the like. But the question is, did you know this fact before?

ILLUSTRATION- ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER
Once upon a time, there lived a king who wished to marry a wife. The woman in question who the said king intended to marry was so beautiful that many people by then sought her hand in marriage but all efforts proved abortive due to the fact that she did not find someone worthy of her hand. Because of the woman’s behaviour, the king was always in sorrow. There lived also a young man whose name was Charming. When this Charming saw how sorrowful the king was, as a result of the lady’s behaviour, Charming asked the king not to worry for he would influence the situation. Charming promised to talk to the woman to accept the king’s love. Charming then left for the dainty woman’s house, alone with his dog. On his way to the woman’s place, he felt like defecating. As such, he got inside the bush to ease the tension. While he was in the bush, he saw an owl, which was trapped. And since the owl was still alive, he (Charming) had to rescue it by freeing it from the trap and set it free. While Charming was still on his way to the pretty woman’s house, he became thirsty and went to drink water from the nearby stream. On arriving at the stream, he saw a big fish trying to prey on a small fish. He rescued the smaller fish by scaring away the bigger fish. After setting the smaller fish free, he left and continued on his journey. He did not know what all these things meant. That is why a local adage has it that, one who urinates in to the river does not know that if the relations from the mother’s side do not drink, the relation from the father’s side will drink it.

Charming was not related to the king in any way. But he decided to undertake such an assignment. When Charming got to the woman’s place, she was on her throne. The princess was informed about the presence of Charming and she asked him to be brought to her. When Charming was taken to her, he informed her and others in the palace that the king of his city wished to marry her. As such, he was sent to her by the king. The princess in response told Charming that she had a problem which was about a village which had a ghost which was always fond of killing the inhabitants of the village. And added that should Charming be able to go to that village to get rid of the ghost, she would accept the king for marriage.
The princess was not ready to marry anyone as at then. That was why she decided to give one excuse or another to her suitors. She created an uneasy task for her suitors. She knew that the ghost was daring, powerful and undefeatable. Besides, she knew that, the ghost had twenty heads. With that Charming would not be able to conquer it. Rather, he would be killed by the ghost. But Charming accepted to go to the village to fight this grotesque figure with his dog. He decided to take this risk so that the princess should marry the king, and so that the king should be happy. Immediately Charming got to the ghost’s territory, it raised an alarm that an enemy was around. While there, the owl he rescued from the trap saw him and accosted him twice. The owl reminded him of the time he rescued it from a trap in the bush and as such, it was ready to assist Charming in his mission.

As the grotesque figure moved towards Charming to harm him, the owl flew to the ghost and plucked out one of its eyes. The owl repeated his attack on the ghost the second time and left the ghost useless by removing the remaining eyeball. Thereafter Charming and his dog joined hands with the owl to attack the ghost. At the end of the fierce attack, the ghost was killed. Before then, the princess was at home rejoicing that Charming had been killed by the ghost. Without knowing that the reverse was the case. After Charming had killed the ghost, he took home the head of the ghost and handed it over to the princess. When the princess saw this, she was sorrowful because all her plans did not yield any desired result. Thereafter Charming requested her to follow him home as agreed but the woman refused and again set another task before Charming to accomplish, if he really wished to take her home.
The second task was that, Charming should go to a certain waterfall and fetch her water before she gives her consent to marry the king. The waterfall was demarcated by a very thick forest, which had all types of wild animals. But Charming and his dog did not mind the risk involved. So, they were determined and set out to fetch the water. On reaching the forest, they were confronted with several wild animals. But fortunately, they (Charming and his dog) were not harmed. While in the stream, the owl that helped him to kill the ghost reappeared from the forest and decided to fetch water from the stream for Charming. The water was a special one, which made anyone who bathed with it to be young and good looking. In order to rescue Charming, the owl collected the pot from Charming and went to the waterfall and fetched the water. Charming took the water to the princess and asked her to get prepared to leave with him for his city. But the woman disagreed strongly and again set another task before

Charming.
This time, she asked Charming to go to a certain river to collect ring for her. The river was very deep, and so, after the discussion, Charming took off with his dog to the bank of the river. On arrival, he met with the fish he had saved. The fish was surprised but happy to see him. The fish therefore decided to use that opportunity to reciprocate what Charming did for it. The fish then dived deep into the river and later came up with the ring that the queen was searching for and gave it to Charming. Note that this was the fish, which Charming had saved from being eaten by a bigger fish on his way to the queen’s place. Having given the controversial ring to the queen, she was exceedingly glad and had no alternative than to follow Charming to their land with all her belongings. And finally, the marriage was officially contracted between the king and the queen.

INGRATITUDE
This king was very popular and rich. After the marriage ceremonies, they settled down for marriage. At this juncture, something worthy of note happened. Whenever meal was prepared for Charming, if he was not there to eat, the queen would not eat. The king was suspicious and worried over this development and so, he queried the action of the queen. He concluded that there must be something fishy between the queen and Charming. But this was far from the truth. The queen merely loved Charming for the role he played in her marriage to the king. Not pleased with the extent of cordiality existing between Charming and the queen, the king ordered that Charming be bundled and put into the lions den alleging that charming had committed adultery with his wife. By the king’s words he was dumped into the lion’s den. While there, the queen still continued to send food through people to him. She did this because she acknowledged Charming’s contribution towards her marriage to the king; the risk he took and the patience and courage he had.

A MAN REAPS WHAT HE SOWS
As if the king was not satisfied with the punishment he meted to Charming, he poisoned and replaced the poisoned water with the only water available for the queen to drink, so that when the queen drinks of it, she would die. But as the Father would have it, the king himself unconsciously went and drank the poisoned water and died. After the death of the king, the queen ordered for the release of Charming from detention. Automatically, Charming became the queen’s husband. With this current development, Charming became the legal owner of all the king’s property. This goes to confirm the saying that the reward for God lingers on till it is received. You should realise that it is not fair for one to be tired in doing good.
Charming had no intention of marrying the queen; he had no intention of having an affair with her. But as God would have it, even though Charming did not have any mind of marrying the queen and could not dream about such a thing, as far as his status was concerned, his goodness placed him above every other person in the heart of the queen. The situation had willed him to be so. This confirms the truth that whatsoever a man sows that also shall he reap. (See Ephesians 6: 5-8)

THE LAW OF KARMA
If you have not started believing the word of God, start now. No goodness is lost. God has a way of rewarding those that show goodness to God and even to his fellow man. Do not do good things in the hope of being rewarded. Whatsoever evil you do to another the same, and even in greater measure will be returned to you. This is what is referred to as the law of Karma. Do not be afraid of doing good, notwithstanding your position on earth, a servant or master. Whatsoever you want to do you should do it heartily as to the Lord and not unto man. Note that you will receive the reward from the Lord. (Read Colossians 3: 22-25). No material wealth can bail you out of the reward of evil deeds. If you take delight in evil practices, you must receive the reward. And nothing can deprive you from the reward for good works if you take delight in goodness.
I keep warning you that you should not take delight in free gifts that you have not suffered for. Make sure that whatever you have is what you laboured for. After all, the goodness and evil of man live after him. Notwithstanding the risk involved in doing good, continue doing it, be rest assured that God will surely reward you for doing so. This is the will of God. If you do this, you show that you love God.
The world teaches you selfishness, strive and lust. Shun the world and its useless lust but hold fast to the love of God. It is a guarantee for everlasting life. (Read 1 John 2: 15-17). If you start now to practice true love as demanded by God, you will not have any problem any longer. Begin now to love all and wish every one well. Hating everybody at first calls for problems in your lives.
Charming of our story loved God and had his due reward but the king on the contrary, hated God and received his reward too. If you love man, it means you love God. If on the contrary you hate man, you have hated God. In summary, whatever you do to God’s creation, you are doing same to God. (Read Matthew 10: 40-42). Let it not be your belief that until you build a mansion for God before you could be said to have loved God. All God’s creations are God’s representatives; therefore one good gesture done to them is invariably done to God. It serves no useful purpose committing sin, rather, whosoever indulges in sin is enslaved to it, and cannot have eternal life. (See John 8: 34-35). Read Revelation 11: 18, 1st John 4: 20-21:
Did you know that by hating man you have hated God? Are you aware that you cannot have eternal life if you hate your fellow man? If you hate, you have condemned yourself. The only way out of this impending trouble is for you to repent now and plead for forgiveness, else, you will loose your soul to eternal destruction. Love is a guarantee to eternal life. Christ’s illustration attests to the fact that any good thing done to another person is invariably done to God. (Read Matthew 25: 34-40). For the reward of hatred and selfishness read (Matthew 25: 41-46). You should now realise that there is a commensurate reward of punishment for anything one does. Take particular note of the lesson derivable from the word of the scriptures recorded in 1st Peter 2: 17.
“Honour all men, love the Brotherhood Fear God honour the king”.
You are in danger if you give yourself up to be misled by the evil one to go contrary to this divine injunction. God does not punish you, neither do I, rather, God had set aside punishment for all that goes contrary to His teachings and eternal life as the reward for those that obey Him. You cannot get the true teachings of Christ elsewhere, except in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. And so, practice what you are taught for they qualify you for everlasting life.

THE WAGES OF SIN
Read Matthew 5: 39-42.
“But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil; but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away”.

Sequel to the excerpt above, God has never enjoined us to indulge in any sinful act. If we indulge in sinful acts, we are subjected to punishment. In fact, once one commit sins, he has perished. In the same vein, anyone who curses or says a bad word against a fellow man is in hell. The content of the above biblical excerpt is what you are taught. Therefore if you indulge in cursing and hating a fellow man on the reason that you are a child of Olumba Obu, you have yourself to blame for going contrary to the injunction of God. Because no matter who you are, so long as you are a sinner or evil doer, you are bound to be punished accordingly by God. It is the sin you commit that is responsible for your problems in life. No matter how minute your sin is, you are bound to be punished accordingly. (Read 2nd Timothy 2: 22).

“Flee also youthful lusts; but follow righteousness, faith, charity peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart”.

Let My peace and blessings rest and abide with the entire world, now and forever more. Amen.

Thank you Good Father.

EVERLASTING BIBLE CLASS DELIVERED BY

THE HOLY FATHER LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU

“BROTHERHOOD – THE CENTRE OF REFORMATION”

TEXT: ST MATTHEW 15: 1 – END.

Brethren, I deliberately conduct the Bible Class so that no person can fool you as far as the scripture is concerned. For some of you, it is your mouth that kills you. When you are asked where did you study the Bible, you say, I have never studied the scripture.
But I want to tell you that, whoever attends the Bible Class for a day is better than a person who has studied in a seminary for seven years. One doctor, back from overseas studies, gave a testimony that he had remained in Amorc and other mystical schools for many years, but had never heard the type of teachings, he received in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star for a day.
When you are asked where you studied the scriptures, you tell them, you have not gone to the seminary. During the Pentecostal held three times a year, you are taught the scriptures, what of the daily teachings and the Bible Class I teach you always?

THE MISSION OF ADAM, ENOCH, MOSES ELIJAH, JOHN AND CHRIST ON EARTH:

1 TIMOTHY 4: 13
“Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.”
Now the Holy Bible is the judgement book, that will be used in judging the whole world. When you come into the Bible Class you are given various lessons so that you begin to know the truth to enable you to overcome the people of the world. I want to ask you one question: What was the main purpose of Adam’s coming into the world, what was his mission? What did Enoch come to do in the world? Why we fail is the fact that we do not appreciate that any individual who comes into the world, has been given an assignment by God. What of Moses? What was his duty on earth? Or would you say that John did the same type of work as Moses or was he given another assignment? Why did John come? Or was it exactly the same duty performed by Elijah? What about Christ, did He do the same work done by John? Now what does the Holy Spirit come to do, will the work of the Holy Spirit be the same work as Jesus Christ did? Have you heard what Our Lord Jesus Christ said in:
St. John 14: 12

“Verily, verily I say unto you. He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.”
What do you understand by this statement? What was the assignment of Our Lord Jesus Christ and what is the work greater than the work of Our Lord Jesus Christ? Many people say Jesus had done the work nobody else had done. What did He do? Why did He say, whosoever believes in Me will do greater work than Himself and what did John say?

St. Matthew 3: 11-12
“I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire.
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge His floor, and gather his wheat into the garner, but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire”.

What did John the Baptist say about Jesus Christ our Lord? He did not wear cloth. Brethren, do you realise that each of them had his own assignment. Our Lord Jesus Christ knew that there are different duties assigned to different people. That was why He said that He who believes in Him, will do greater work than Himself.

ADAM THE HOUSE OF GOD
Adam was the house, which God erected for Himself. He was a farm planted by God. Brethren if one goes into the forest to settle, the first thing he will do is to erect a house in which he will dwell. And so Adam was the house of God. Adam did nothing than building the house for God whether the house is strong or not it was a house of God. All mankind, are the houses of God, whether it is a thatch house or a permanent building. Therefore, you cannot build any other house than what Adam had built for God to dwell in and have dominion over all God’s creation.

THE SPECIFIC ASSIGNMENT OF ENOCH
What was the duty of Enoch? He came for an inspection to ensure whether things were orderly kept in their respective positions as God ordained them. Enoch in short was an inspector. When he came and inspected the position of things he discovered that things were not in order. He submitted his findings to God. That is why you are told that God regretted having created man in His own image. “And it repented the Lord that He had made man on the earth, and grieved him at his heart.” Enoch submitted his final report that, sin dominated mankind. And God had no other alternative than to take a decision to destroy mankind and the world. What was the reason for the coming of Noah?

THE ASSIGNMENT OF NOAH:
Noah came to serve the remanent of the children of God. He came and preached repentance to the people of his generation for one hundred and twenty years but they hardened their hearts and minds. They paid deaf ears to his preaching but rather turned and ridiculed him as it happens in this our generation.
When the time for the destruction of the disobedient ones came, he collected all God’s creation – male and female into the ark in pairs and eight persons who were members of His family. The rest were destroyed by the great flood. This our present generation is that of Adam because the eight who were saved in the Ark multiplied and replenished the earth. Therefore it is not correct for a person to assume that the generation of Adam were destroyed in the flood. The rainbow we have on the sky was the covenant God entered with mankind that He will never destroy the world again with flood, no matter how sinful the world might be.

ASSIGNMENT OF MELCHIZEDEC
After the world of Noah was destroyed by flood, Melchizedec came and entered into a covenant with God never to destroy the world again with flood. The main duty of Melchizedec was to bless the people who were saved from the flood, and to set all things in order because despite the flood, mankind would still continue in sin. He had a duty to teach and demonstrate righteousness, peace, love, forgiveness, endurance and all the other virtues of God to them. When people became defiled due to sinfulness he would bless them and reconciled them to God. It was in this way he blessed the patriarch Abraham. In return, Abraham gave to the royal priest a tenth of all booty taken. Giving the tenth was a practical acknowledgment of the divine priesthood of Melchizedec, for the tenth was, according to the general custom, the offering presents to deity. He had the duty to collect tithe because he is God Almighty that became flesh and dwell among them, in that generation even though they did not recognise Him, except Abraham alone. Brethren, since Melchizedec had undertaken all these assignments, what was the mission of Moses on earth?

ASSIGNMENT OF MOSES
Jehovah God and His Christ told Abraham that his seed will sojourn in a strange land and will remain in bondage for 400 years and after that, God will judge the nation that enslaved them.

Acts 7: 6-7
“And God spake on this wise, that his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them to bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years; And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.”

Moses came to redeem the children of Israel from the land of bondage according to the promise of God. After that God promised to judge the nation that enslaved them. Before the birth of Moses, the children of Israel lived in Egypt for 320 years, and in his 80th year, he liberated the
Israelites from bondage of Egypt. That was his assignment and he later disappeared on his way to the promised land. Without the coming of Moses, who would have delivered the Israelites after they had lived in Egypt for 420 years.
Pharaoh was a King, and with His army and commanders enslaved the Israelites. What instrument did Moses employ to redeem the Israelites from bondage? Was it gun, machete or any physical weapon? He did not quarrel with Pharaoh but the Israelites were delivered from slavery. Who was Moses in the first place to have had the courage to appear before Pharaoh and demand for the deliverance of the Israelites? Moses was God, manifested in another form to reveal his power and glory.

ROMANS 9: 17
“For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.”

Moses approached Pharaoh with His crook staff only and performed all the wonders in Egypt.

GOD KILLS AND KEEPS ALIVE
Many people do not know that it is only God who kills and keeps alive. Moses performed all the wonders and signs in Egypt and yet God hardened the heart of Pharaoh. God told Moses to order the Israelites to celebrate the feast of the Passover. After slaughtering a lamb, they should use blood and place a mark on the two side posts and on the upper part of the houses. This blood mark will be a token unto you. God promised that when He saw the blood mark, He would pass over their houses but would smite the Egyptians who do not have these marks of “Passover”. That night, while the Israelites had the feast, God sent an Angel of death to kill all the first born in the land of Egypt, from the first born of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the first born of the captives and all the first born cattle.
In the morning when they woke up, all the first born in Egypt were dead. Now since you claim that God does not kill, I ask you who killed all the first born in Egypt? Was it juju, Satan or Lucifer? Just as the worldly governments have Army, Navy, Airforce and the Police so in heaven, there are armed forces. God has different Angels for different operations. Some are soldiers, others are police, others are warders. Since God promised to judge the nation that will enslave the seeds of Abraham, God entered into the heart of Pharaoh and urged him and his armies to pursue the Israelites after they had left Egypt. As a result of the pursuit, all his army perished in the Red Sea. Brethren, until God entered into you and do everything will you know? You will always attribute the actions of God to witchcraft, mermaid, ghost, Lucifer, Satan and all other elementary spirits. Moses, therefore, executed the wonderful deliverance of the Israelites from Egypt, gave them the commandments and set them on their course to Caanan.

THE MISSION OF ELIJAH
Elijah was to come to punish all those who did not abide by the commandments and ordinances of God, particularly idolaters. He did not come to preach or to baptise but only to destroy the worshippers of Baal.

ST. LUKE 9: 52-56
“And sent messengers before his face, and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him; And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem”. And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of; For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.”

Brethren, it is the same God performing His assignment through different persons. Have you not read in the scriptures that Elijah was a destroyer? You who continue to argue that God is love and so He cannot kill, that it is only satan who kills, can you notice what God did in those days? Who sent fire from Heaven to destroy 400 – 500 Baal worshippers? Elijah came to reveal to that generation that God is Alpha and Omega therefore He is the only power to kill and to keep alive and that all those who will not submit to His government would be destroyed equally like Baal worshippers. When the disciples of Our Lord Jesus Christ came and demanded that He should command fire to consume the Samaritans who did not believe in Him, He told them such was not His assignment.

THE MISSION OF JOHN THE BAPTIST
Why does the scripture say that John will come in the spirit of Elijah?

ST. LUKE 1: 17
“And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”

He came and destroyed the prophet of baal, why was it necessary that His spirit should come back in the person of John the Baptist.

MALACHI 4: 5-6
“Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord; And He shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children and the children to their father, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.”

Elijah came back as John the Baptist. This time, he came to accomplish another assignment. He came to prepare the hearts and minds of the children of men to accept Our Lord Jesus Christ. He preached repentance and purification. Without him nobody would have accepted or believed in the deity of Christ. He ate only locust, honey and wore animals skin. Peter, John, James and many disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ were His disciples.
He spent most of His days in the wilderness fasting and praying. That is why the scriptures says, “Blesseth are the pure in heart for they shall see God.” He taught people purity of hearts and mind so that they would see and recognise the long expected Messiah.

THE MISSION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
His assignment was to shed His precious blood for the remission of sins. That is why the scriptures say, “Without the shedding of blood, there will be no forgiveness of sins. The house God built in Adam was defiled with sins. That was why Christ came to use His holy blood, to clear the debris from the demolished building of Adam, and rebuild it so that the Holy Spirit might dwell in it. Before the advent of Christ, God had no dwelling place. That was why He said “foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests but the son of man has no place to lay his head.” The greatest of all the assignment so far was that of Christ, to die a disgraceful death for the remission of the sins of the entire world. If Christ did not come to shed His precious blood, God Almighty would not have come down to dwell with man in flesh and bone. When you talk of the Holy Spirit where will He dwell before He became personified? That first house of Adam was completely defiled and was not suitable for the Holy Spirit to dwell in. Therefore, the shedding of the blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ gave rise to purifying of the house of Adam and the arrival of the Holy Spirit. Read the statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ in
ST. JOHN 16: 7-9

“Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you; And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement. Of sin, because they believe not on me.”

The blood from goats and cows could not purify us. Now if through the blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ all our sins are forgiven, what is the assignment of the Holy Spirit?

THE MISSION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

1ST PETER 3: 13-14
“And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? But and if ye suffer for righteousness’ sake, happy are ye; and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled.”

The assignment of the Holy Spirit is to make the Kingdom of this world to become the Kingdom of Jehovah God and His Christ. He is to establish a New Heaven and a New Earth where only righteous dwells. That was not the responsibility of Christ and that was why after He had shed His blood, people still continue in their persistent in sinfulness.
With the advent of the Holy Spirit in the flesh, He is to transform mankind from mortality to immortality. The real work of the Holy Spirit is to make people refrain completely from all manners of sins. This is not the responsibility of one man, that is why God the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit have come down to accomplish this great task.

ST. JOHN 14: 12-14
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father; And whosoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.”

The greatest assignment is to reform a sinner and lead him to practice righteousness. Preaching, healing, vision, dreams and prophecy are the work of the flesh. The actual healing is when you who were a thief, a fornicator, a liar, an idolater, a necromancer, a juju priest, a drunkard, an adulterer are changed by the Holy Spirit.
Brethren, upon all the mighty works of Moses, Elijah and Christ, yet they could not change a sinner. None of them was perfect. For instance, Moses even though he caused the Red Sea to split into two, was a murderer, and because he was full of sin. When Christ preached to the Scribes and Pharisees, they did not repent, he cursed them. Read St. Matthew 11: 21

“Woe unto thee, Chorazini! Woe unto thee Bethsaida! For if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.”

ST. MATTHEW 23: 13-35
“But woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in;

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites” for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayer; therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation;
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte and when he is made, ye make him two-fold more the child of hell than yourselves. Ye fools and blind; for whether is greater, the gold or the temple that sanctifieth the gift?
And whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing, but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it he is guilty; Ye fools and blind; for whether is greater the gift or the altar that sanctifieth gift? Whosoever therefore shall swear by the altar sweareth by it, and by all things thereon;
And whose shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that sweareth therein.; And he that shall swear by the heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgement, mercy and faith; these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel; Woe unto you Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites” for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter that the outside of them may be clean also; Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites” for ye are like unto whitted sepulchers which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity; Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites” because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchers of the righteous; And say, if we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers; Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Wherefore behold, I send unto you prophets and wise men, and scribes, and some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city. That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of Zacharias, son of Barrachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.”

ST. LUKE 11: 46
“And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! For ye lade men with burdens grievous to be born and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.”
Why then should the people of this generation compare Leader O.O. Obu with Jesus or with John, or with Elias or with Moses? Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself bore witness to the assignment to accomplish. The whole Christendom, world’s governments, companies and secret societies are not able to change a sinner to practice righteousness. Read:

ST. MATTHEW 15: 14
“Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind, and if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.”

Who is the blind? Read:
2ND PETER 1: 5-9
“And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtues and to virtue knowledge. And to knowledge temperance and to temperance patience and to patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness and to brotherly kindness charity;
For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ; But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.”

ST. MATTHEW 15: 13
“But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted shall be rooted up.”

Compare that verse with the contents of the first step of God. All vices not planted by the Father will be rooted up. Therefore fornication, anger, hatred, annoyance, adultery, idolatry, drinking, suffering, gossiping, division, pride, selfishness and other vices will be eradicated by the Holy Spirit. That is why when you tell somebody to follow you to Brotherhood, he will argue that he cannot come because Brotherhood, does not drink fornicate, steal, quarrel or indulge in the vices. He will tell you your Leader say, we should not fornicate, what of all these beautiful girls and handsome young men. Some of them will tell you that even Christ turned water to wine which means Christ encouraged drinking; and that Paul advised Timothy to take a little wine for the stomach trouble. They therefore conclude that drinking is not bad although the Leader of the Brotherhood says people should not drink even minerals.
Our Lord Jesus Christ never taught people to stop drinking and all the miracles he performed were carnal. The raising of Lazarus from the dead or the walking on top of the River did not cause people to refrain from sin and practice righteousness. The only assignment no one has ever undertaken since the foundations of the world were laid, is to change an evil doer from His former vices to the practice and demonstration of all the virtues of God. That is the greatest assignment.

BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR THE CENTRE FOR REFORMATION:
Lucifer, Satan, demon, men, angels and the entire world bear testimony to the fact that once a sinner comes into the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, he is completely transformed from his former vices. Some men here were great native doctors, some were members of different mystical schools; some of you have practiced occultism for many years; some of you cannot do for a day without the use of drugs and tablets; some of you cannot stay or travel to anywhere without the use of talisman, amulet and concoctions; some of you were ardent smokers, snuffers, drunkards, fornicators, adulterers but today you all are completely transformed from these vices.
If someone had revealed to you by way of vision or dream that you will stay in this earth without smoking, drinking, fornicating, or visiting medical doctors and sorcerers, you would not believe, but behold today you are completely a changed person. All those who come with their sins are surprised to notice the rapid change in each of you. Read:
ST. MATTHEW 11: 20-23
“Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not; Woe unto thee, Chorranzin! Woe unto thee, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented a long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
But I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgement, than for you; And thou, Capernum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell for if the mighty works which have been done in thee, had been done in Sidon, it would have remained until this day.”
Brethren, miracles are mere signs to reveal the physical presence of God on earth but cannot change a sinner. If one is deeply in sin, he will still see vision, heal the sick, raise the dead, open the eyes of the blind, prophesy and perform other mighty works, but from Adam to Christ none, was able to change a sinner, without duress such as beating, imprisonment, torture, excommunication and public execution.

Now that the Holy Spirit is personified, He uses only His words to change all His elects because He is a consuming fire. His words consume all the vices in us completely. When I call for testimony, I want you to testify how the Holy Spirit removed you completely from your former vices, and make it possible for you to practice righteousness. Have you ever read from a book of any man in this earth who teaches people and demonstrates all the virtues of God practically for 365 days; in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening at dawn and dusk throughout the year?
As for wealth, promotion in business or at your places of work, passing of examination, or people going abroad to study in different field, they are the works of the flesh. The greatest position a person can hold in Brotherhood is to refrain completely from all vices. When your heart is pure, then the entire body will be pure and clean. Therefore, you must refrain from all manners of sin in order to recognise the Holy Spirit who personifies in your midst. The scripture teaches that blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God, once you abstain from sin, your heart will be pure, and your eyes will be open to recoginse the Holy Spirit dwelling in your midst.
Whatever is your situation in life, I do not recognise you whether you are President, Governor, King, Millionaire, Pope as long as you indulge in sins, you are carnal and will not have any share in this New Kingdom. Whether your soutane is as white as snow I do not know you because if you sin you have no share in this New Kingdom. As Moses, Elias, John and Christ succeeded in their assignments, like wise all those who are called into the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star are completely transformed from their sins.

THE CHRISTIANDOM IS THE CENTRE OF VICES
You all will bear with Me that the leaders of different churches and religions can’t practice righteousness. None can change his members from sinfulness to righteousness. If you go to some of these churches with ten sins by the time you spent one month, your sins will multiply to 100. And so the churches exists for nothing. Many Christians visit native doctor’s houses, sacrifice to mermaid and sue their enemies to the law courts. There is nothing done inside the churches that can reform a sinner from his evil ways. Churches cause division, one church will not agree with another church. That is why I say churches are the abode of Satan where all his vices are practiced.

ST. MATTHEW 15: 15-19
“Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable; And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? Do not yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they witness, blasphemies.”
Why people do not come to Brotherhood is because of their vices. They rather prefer to stay inside their churches and glory in these vices claiming all churches are the same. We are now in New Heaven and New Earth where righteousness dwells, therefore it is incumbent upon everyone of you to abhor sin and practice righteousness. All the secret societies, church denominations and other mystical organisations are the abode of vices. They exist for nothing apart from causing confusion.

2ND TIMOTHY 4: 1-5
“I charge thee therefore before God, and Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and doctrine; For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears: And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables; But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of anevangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.”

Each human being on Earth has his own assignment, therefore the churches and secret organisations had long accomplished the assignments they were destined to perform.

JUDE 1: 17-19
“But, beloved, remember ye the words, which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.”
That is the duty of the churches and religious organisations. They cause division and their members do not worship in any other church. If a Roman Catholic worships in the Jehovah Witness organisation, he will be ex-communicated. Only a Brotherhood of the cross and Star member is free to worship anywhere in the world, because Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not a church neither is it prayer house but the New Heaven and the New Earth where righteousness dwells.

SUMMARY:
Adam was the house of God and the power of God.

GENESIS 1: 26-29
“And God said, let us make man in our own image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth; And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed to you it shall be for meat.”

Fornication and adultery caused God to reduce the life span of man to 120 years.

GENESIS 6: 1-3
“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them; That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose;
And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh; yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.”
The reason why God decided to destroy the man he created in his own image and likeness.

ST. JOHN 3: 16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

ST JOHN 15: 13
“Greater love hath no man than this,that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

GENESIS 6: 4-6
“There were giants in the earth in those days, andalso after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”

And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually; And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at this hearts.”
Abraham paid tithes to Melchizedec and recognised Him as Almighty God personified and Melchizedec blessed Him.

GENESIS 14: 18-20
“And Melchizedec King of Salem brought forth bread and wine; and he was the priest of the most high God; And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth; And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.”

Adam lived 930 years.

GENESIS 5: 5
“And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.”
Why some baptised Brotherhood are sick, poor or suffer divers tribulations:

1 CORINTHIANS 11: 29-32
“For he that eateth and drinketh unworthy, eateth and drinketh damnation to imself, not discerning the Lord’s body; for this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep; For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged; But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, thatwe should not be condemned with the world.”

Let My peace and blessings abide with the entire world. Now and forever more. Amen.

EVERLASTING GOSPEL DELIVERED BY THE HOLY FATHER, THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU (WHQ) BCS 34 AMBO ST CALABAR NIGERIA

BEWARE OF THE SCOFFERS AROUND YOU

FIRST LESSON: JUDE 1: 18
How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 24: 11
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

GOLDEN TEXT: 1ST JOHN 2: 19
They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

Brethren, that is the revelation of our lessons today. The theme of this gospel serves as an eye opener to those who are God’s own elect; it is an interesting gospel to the understanding of true believers. From the various gospels that had been preached throughout the whole world, there is none that has no connection with this very gospel, since it is the bone of contention to many.
From daily observations, it is always a surprise that you can see some people sitting together with you as brethren of the same faith, eating and singing all along as seen in the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; but suddenly they move out and begin to spread useless and careless talks about this New Kingdom. They will even proclaim that the Leader is Christ and God and yet within a short while they rush out and begin to blackmail that very Leader; they start calling Him all sorts of names, as King of Beelzebub, juju priest or even a murderer. This should not surprise you because the gospel of today is the clear answer.
This group of people can be seen among the apostles, students, choristers, elders, in short from every section of the fold; but if you have had this gospel planted in you, when you see them, do not doubt because as the scripture say, this is the last generation and fullness of time when everything must come to fulfilment. You are also reminded that it is not all the children of Abraham that come from Abraham and not all the children of Israel that are Israelites; therefore NOT ALL THOSE WHO CLOTHE THEMSELVES WITH WHITE ROBES ARE ACTUAL MEMBERS OF BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR. No matter the length of the time they remain, these personalities are not the real children of God, because they are deceitful prophets and must surely depart from us. All these must happen in order to conform to what had been written in the bible that heaven and earth shall pass away but not a jot of the word that comes from God will pass without being fulfilled. Therefore there is nothing that had been happening or will happen now that had not been written about, and this gospel reveals what had long been written about this time.

THEY DISREGARD TRUE WORSHIPPERS
Consider the daily events around you and you will realise the fact that these deceitful workers have filled the whole world? They have no spirit of God in them; they only seek for their own livelihood through hardship, yet when they see those who would serve God, they turn to mock at them, giving them all sorts of names. They jeer at you, and if you try to follow God with your implicit faith, they will tell you that you are struggling for nothing and that you are not worshipping God in the correct way.
If at any time you happen to mention to them about forsaking sins, or that it is proper for one to love one another, they will mock and make jest of you. They are the people who open churches upon churches, joining every denomination seeking for high position as chairmen and treasurers, in order to satisfy their own selfish ends; and they would remain in churches struggling for money placing their minds on nothing but material things of this world. While inside the church, they cause confusion, they fight, fornicate, quarrel, steal, and do all sorts of evil vices; and when they become tired they simply jump out. These persons can be found in all churches, schools, offices, and market places, even along the streets and all over the world. They are not of God, but stumbling blocks to those who want to serve him. They are very trickish and cunning in their ways of life through lust. Some money can be entrusted to you by the organisation for some purpose, these persons will remove the money thereby causing you to have a bad name among the fold. This group of deceivers go about performing strange wonders, just to mislead the chosen ones of God, if possible.

BAD COMPANIES CORRUPT GOOD MANNERS
Think of someone who is a Pastor, Bishop or Reverend; he is in charge of a church or a Bethel, yet he will cause all the women and young girls to fornicate with him, what sort of a dignitary is he, is he not among this group of false prophets? They act just to fulfil the scripture, that wherever the children of God are there you will find these scoffers who are there to mislead the weaker souls. If they join any organisation whose uniform is black, they will sew up to three or five in different styles; if the clothes is white, they (the deceivers) will equally sew the best types of white soutanes and other patterns; they put on this clothing and mingle with the children of God in order to cause confusion because they are not out to serve. They mix easily among the women in order to cause them to fall away from the truth. Someone may think that members of the organisation are not willing to serve God; this is not so, but it is because of the activities of these confusionists that the work of God seems to be dying out completely.

The children of God are found all over the world but according to the scriptures, it is said that at the end of time, many false prophets will arise; they will clothe themselves in wolves’ skin and pretend to be serving God. The preaching is different, their footsteps and manners are quite out of order and because they belong to the world, the worldly people love them. BUT WHERE NO HIGH POSITION IS ALLOWED, THEY RUN OUT AND START TO BLASPHEME AGAINST THAT ORGANISATION. On the other hand, if you caution or pretend to overlook their bad behaviours because of the outward personality, they will plant deep roots and corrupt all the members, and where they find enthusiastic members trying to handle God’s work, they will discourage them by telling them that God wants only the heart and not practical services.
With the so-called ordained Pastors, Apostles, or Prophets when anyone is sick, instead of offering prayers, they instruct and direct that various drugs stocked in their briefcase can heal. They go from house to house telling people that God helps those who help themselves. They confuse people by teaching that God does not forbid fornication because God made Adam and Eve; and that He created women for men for this purpose. They confirm their vain teachings that men and women cannot stay without fornicating. Therefore watch out because these men are deceivers, mockers and jesters because they have no Spirit of God and do not listen to the word of God. But in case you really want to know their works, join them in an organisation, watch their actions and you will see surely that they are outstanding; therefore take this gospel as a watchword in order to arm yourself, never to be trapped by these interlopers.

BE VIGILANT, ELSE YOU STUMBLE
There were some good prophets, elders, students or choristers but because of the behaviours of these false prophets, they were misled and they left their positions. So it is to prove that if you visit other churches, ask those who left and they will tell you their different stories being that they were trapped out by these deceitful prophets. In reality, there is no gain in their false actions; but they do this in order to test the faith of the children of God. Remember the temptations of our Lord Jesus Christ; when the Spirit led Him into the wilderness after the forty days fasting, He was tempted by the devil. Since Christ knew and entrusted His faith in His Father, he never fell a victim. So it is also with Adam and the forbidden tree in the middle of the garden, which God directed Him not to eat of its fruits, being for good and evil; this tree caused division among the children of God.
The true children of God are born just like that, so are these false scoffers and they try you, but never to succeed. This is seen among human race; in a certain family you can find some who are born children of God, while others are not. Remember that Moses and Aaron were of the same parents, and then Moses became a true Prophet while Aaron his brother was false. When Moses went to receive the commandment from God, his brother, Aaron turned to the evil passions of the children of Israel and made a moulded calf out of their gold trinkets for them to worship as ‘a god’. This action displeased Moses on arrival and he became angry and broke the slate of the laws. From this you can see that the question of individual characters cannot be waved off by prayers, it is one’s own destiny.
Therefore you are forewarned. You often pray in your daily prayers that “Lord, let thy kingdom come”, this is the kingdom you have been praying for and these false prophets are out pretending to be the disciples of Christ, visiting from house to house, town to town, delivering false teachings in order to lead many souls to destruction. They pretend to work hand in hand with you as children of God, but at the same time they will start criticising and they run out when their evil works do not fit, and begin to cause embarrassment all over. It was because of this that our Lord Jesus Christ said at the close of every sermon, “he who has ears let him hear”, because he knew that not all those who gathered to hear his teachings were the children of God. These false prophets would pretend to love God, they prostrate, and knock their heads on the ground several times; they weep for their sins and show all manner of repentance, yet our Lord Jesus Christ has identified them as deceivers and mockers. They do not cherish people pointing out their own mistakes, and if you do this, they will blame and quote you as having no love; in fact, they are neither good for foofoo nor porridge!

THEY RENDER OUTWARD SERVICES
At your stations, look closely and you will distinguish these false workers, even their personal appearance. This reveals that not all those who put on white soutane are true Brotherhood of the Cross and Star members. They worship God outwardly but inwardly they are far from Him. Most people become worried about their behaviours, because they speak and discuss in such deceitful manner likely to cause a breach of peace until they carry out their operations. At any time you bring in any good suggestion, or even call the name of the Leader, they turn to oppose outright. Do not be surprised because since they are born like that, whatever they perform must be faulty too. Inside the church, they place marks on their seats acquiring a special portion all the time, and if anyone happens to make use of those seats, they start to struggle and quarrel over it. Never criticise and do not ask them to quit, but at long last, they will leave on their own. After they might have gone out and you happen to see them and ask to know why they departed, they will turn to say “Oh! Leave me with your Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, there has been nothing much to see there”. They blaspheme against the Leader, and proclaim that they are worshipping ‘Jesus’ because Jesus shed blood on their behalf. They curse you as fools that you are worshipping man; and by this you become confused and get mixed up. They will remain inside the church and oppose God; if love is being preached, they say, “they are being saved by grace” that no one can love one another. They never fast and will abuse those who go on fasting as worst fools thinking that they are punishing themselves; and that Christ had already fasted and ended fasting for mankind. They would neither enter the kingdom nor allow any other person to enter. These personalities are many and can be seen everywhere. Let our first bible lesson be read again.

First Bible Lesson: Jude 1: 18
The scoffers referred to in the above passage are those who claim to be church goers, calling themselves Christians, yet they continue in fornication, quarrel and getting angry all the time. They preach in churches, even inside their cars; you see them along the streets telling other people to forsake stealing, fornication, anger, bearing false news against one another; they pray with a spirit even to move mountains, yet within a short while they turn round and steal other people’s money or property and go off their way. During their preaching they will first quote and open where it is written “woe unto him who serves drink to his brother”, yet they will depart from what they quote, and preach outside such passage. They know why they quote that passage, in case there is a child of God around their area of work; if arguments arise, they will argue that the bible says one should drink a little for the protection of the stomach, but never to become drunk.
They are the preachers who stand at the pulpit and tell the congregation that God helps those who help themselves. Your brother who is a Bishop, Pastor or Reverend may sit in a discussion with you and if you happen to tell him that it is against God’s instructions never to drink or take drugs, he will oppose and claim that drinking is not against God’s doctrine, that he has been studying religion abroad and never has come across that portion in the bible, and that one should take medicine for health protection. These church dignitaries try to serve God out of their own personal understanding and not with the laid down principles of God and by so doing they lead many sheep astray. If a Bishop or Pastor could render such teachings that there is no harm in drinking, taking drugs or fornicating, what then is expected of the members; by this, sins are multiplied.

THEY ARE PRETENDERS
As part of their apparels, these dignitaries clothe themselves with talisman and rings and get into the altar to render sermon; counting for themselves that they are being protected by foreign powers. This must happen because it was said that a time would come when people would depart from the truth and please themselves with all worldly things. The chosen children of God cannot face any stumbling blocks except those destined for perdition. Therefore never be angry whenever you hear they mock and ridicule you. To some extent, they cannot stop performing these functions being part of their duties in fulfilment of the word of God; but be steadfast in your faith with God. Here in Brotherhood, you find them going about giving false visions and demanding money for it, they will tell the out-stations that the Father requires the money as donation. Their visions are based on witchcrafts, enemies and juju being buried in your home; they will direct you to native doctors in order to prepare concoction. They sell the holy oil and water; therefore whenever you accept such evil practices, you fail. They have power of visions such as the children of God; they preach with zeal but full of deceits, they are the faulty workers. But MY HAPPINESS IS THAT I KNOW THAT AT THE FULLNESS OF TIME, ALL OF THEM WILL DEPART ONE AFTER THE OTHER. What is most pleasing is that they cannot mislead the real children of God, chosen and ordained for this kingdom. Therefore this gospel reveals to you why this must happen, because by destiny they are what they are.

I AM KNOWN BY MY SHEEP
During the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ, He at one time said to the multitude, “You will not believe me because you are not of my sheep, but my sheep know me and I know them by name also. The Father who gave them to me is so mighty that nobody can get them out of my fold”. This same statement is referred to you in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, that no matter the extent of the shame and torture, my true sheep cannot be deceived and taken out from me. You are witnesses that no matter the trials, when you become stronger in faith, they become disappointed and fall out. At times you will be confronted by this group who offer you fat sum of money with luxurious cars pleading with you to forsake Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; but if you do not, they will become marvelled as to what your Leader has done to block your mind against such wealth, as they term it.
Even within your family circle, if you do not agree to their ungodly decisions, your name will be crossed off from the family meetings, yet you will show no concern. Yes, this is so because the Father who gave you to me is mighty and nobody can easily snatch you out. If on the other hand they see a wealthy member, they will ask the less fortunate one whether he really wants to join Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; if the fellow gives consent, they will turn and enquire from him what he is ready sacrifice in order to become rich, because the richer members have reached the final circle of the church and whether the less fortunate can afford a human being to offer. Thereafter when they turn round to see the poor dancing with all happiness, these mockers will ask if the less fortunate is indeed the member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; that he is poor because he has not reached the final circle. Therefore be thankful to God about these various statements as laid down in the bible as a guide to the children of God as touching this present time.

NO SHEEP OF MINE SHALL PERISH
God’s own elect should have no boast of themselves; it is not out of your steadfastness that made you to remain in Brotherhood of the Cross ad Star, but through His own promise that none of His sheep shall be separated from Him. You have heard about Job, whose faith was counted for him as righteousness. Upon his tribulations by sickness, deaths, loss of wealth and the like, caused by these very scoffers, yet he did not stumble, instead he became richer than ever. Even our Lord Jesus Christ, since He was the Son of God, the Father protected Him and He did not stumble. From this it is clearly seen that Satan has no power over the chosen children of God. Satan being of the world only goes about preaching false doctrine to the people of the world who are being misled to destruction. But the children of God always listen to the word of God and now this lesson is being delivered to you so that you can be guided accordingly. Now listen attentively to what our second lesson will reveal.
Second Lesson: Matthew 24: 11

ARISE FOR MANY WILL BE LED ASTRAY
From personal experience, have you not seen them today in the world? They themselves know that God is neither devil nor ghost, but the WORD, from the effect of word THEY KNOW THERE IS NO CHANCE FOR THEM IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD, THEY THEN GO ABOUT LECTURING FALSELY, CRITICISING WHAT THEY DO NOT EVEN KNOW ABOUT BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR as a whole, in the real sense of the word. They can only deceive their very counterparts because those of God are born like that and have been given a promise by God for their protection against evil. You can equally testify that at the time you wanted to join the fold of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; they tried by all means to dissuade you with false news about what they claim to have known about the fold. They would broadcast all over causing you a lot of embarrassment, and once you become baptised, they make you their resting place (parlour) with visits in rotation, awaiting their evil operations.
Another major point is that through the ignorance of men, they often allege that when they were members in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star the Leader demanded seven human beings from them as sacrifice and as they could not accept such offer, they went out. If after such falsehood, they realise that you are not still convinced about the story, they will turn to enquire from you what gains you have derived from Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Sometimes these scoffers can borrow certain amount from you, and when you demand for its refund, they turn to quote you as having fallen off from the practical side of “love one another”. Thereafter forget about such money completely. Others will allege that the organisation is for graduates (and start counting them by names) but you being an illiterate there will be no room for you in the fold. The most interesting part is that when they point out that you are worshipping man, giving glory, reverence to an ordinary man like yourself, and that they are worshipping the true God and ‘Jesus’, you become mixed up and plan to deny your faith. This group of people form ‘Crusaders’ comprising lawyers, doctors, engineers, and so on – almost all are learned men, in order to keep themselves from the truth; if Satan could be so efficient in performing its own functions, how much more the children of God. Remember the blacksmith whose working instructions were ordered to be burnt because his nature of work seemed to disturb certain people at that time. When the blacksmith heard about the plan, he became confused in that he would no longer be getting his livelihood; so he on the other hand started a campaign among the very people and opposed the idea. So you see that most actions being carried out are the effect of spoken WORDS. The war of Armageddon we are hearing of is not to be fought with physical war implements, but by Words; all the time there must be someone who stands out with an idea whereby the people around must join and carry out the operations. It is better we leave them to their duties because they will perish with their works.

HOW ARE YOU SAVED
You have been authorised to go into the world because when you preach as a child of God in order to save souls, these prophets will equally render their own counter-preaching; even yet what you have already planted will help the sheep to retrieve their faith in God. It is not true that you should not call people to God’s salvation, tell them about the glory of God and the marvellous work witnessed among the people throughout the whole universe. According to the scripture – “all those who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved”. Now the big question is: how can they call upon Him whom they do not hear of? It is difficult to pray for someone to help when you do not know anything about such a person or to have heard about him as to whether such can be helpful to you when you call on him. Because of the false doctrines of these prophets, the world is convinced to believe that God has no power or is never in existence, that power can be obtained from juju, concoctions, water-gods, herbalists, secret societies and such like; therefore many people deny the existence of God and fix their faith on this line seeking for help and power thereby they perish. Another question comes that – how then can they hear of him when there is no preacher, and how can somebody preach if he is not being sent? Now you all have been given the power and order to spread this glory throughout the world in order to gather back the misled sheep to the fold of God.
There is none who has not seen the glory of God in Brotherhood today. From the existence of man, he dwells under the influence of ‘TRADITION’ – that is the act of what my great grandfather had been doing. Because of this same belief the problem now facing the world is that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star has come to stamp out Tradition, that if someone dies there will be no mourning house to be observed, even no ringing of bell notifying such death, that drinks will not be allowed during the funeral celebrations, that as a member in Ekpe, Obon, or any secret cult, counting on their losses, they objected never to join Brotherhood, which they term a ‘Society of deceivers’. They are fully satisfied remaining in their former denominations, which they claim were founded by their grandparents, also that when in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, one does not reckon on his relations any longer, being immediately hypnotised by the wonderful power found in the fold. From this you are aware that these scoffers, because of misleading information, cause most actions of the people in the world. Sometimes it may be that you are experiencing mere headache, but when you happen to discuss how far the pain is worrying you, any of these deceivers will start to give instances of how his/her relation died because of such headache. With fear you join him to prepare concoction, thereby you fail.

TEST YOUR FAITH BY SELF CONTROL
It is said, “you are judged by your own words”. This statement should be a guiding principle to everyone, because from your conversation to the world they will pick and use your own words and play their politics. If you visit a doctor and he happens to know that you are a member of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, and possibly you were on fasting, from what you tell him about your health, he will diagnose and confirm to you that you are anaemic – short of blood – yet he is telling a lie because the blood that is being pumped into you during fasting period is over and above normal level since God is indwelling in his own children.
Another can be that you complain about certain disorders (mostly as a young girl). The doctor will ask how long since you had sexual intercourse with a man. You then tell him you have forsaken fornication for about two years now, he will surely laugh you to scorn and pour a curse on you that as a young girl you want to kill yourself by staying away from man for so long; and that you must look for a man right away in order to get refreshed. He will curse God and the doctrine of your faith as misleading, therefore if you are worried and become convinced of his medical prescriptions you start getting involved in fornication in full desire than before and thereby you fall from the truth. Their duty is to mislead, therefore never discuss your problems with any human being and never trust anyone. Table your problems before God in prayers, because you have been told that whenever you are sick, or when you have a serious case, coupled with various tribulations in life, go on your knees, knock your head and converse with God who will solve all problems for you. Now, let our golden text be read again, listen attentively.

Golden Text: 2nd John 2: 19
Brethren, the above passage is self-explanatory which serves as war implement in the whole world. These deceitful prophets are in our midst but since they cannot cope with the work of the Holy Spirit because of their destiny, they retire and become engaged in blaspheming against Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. It is true that the kingdom of God is by struggling, it is likened to a fisherman’s net being cast into the sea, whereby when he drags it to the shore he will find dead objects, stones, wood and fishes; he will then select out to himself only what he needs. So it is that these false prophets will surely be selected out because they are not of us. This gospel reveals that those begotten of God can never be shaken by wild and vain talks; they remain steadfast even under wild storms. If you see anyone who leaves Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, watch closely and you will know that he was not meant for it. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is no church, prayer house, juju shrine, neither is it a secret cult; but the New Kingdom for the children of God. If you doubt this statement, cast your mind back to the various accusations, shame, temptations, abuses, blackmailing and such like, being meted on Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. It is up to the climax which could have caused most of you (the members) to deny this new kingdom; considering even your family waging war, husband and wife against each other, people ridiculing you at offices, and along the streets; all these only to threaten or persuade you to deny your faith, yet you are still firm and Brotherhood of the Cross and Star still stands forever. Amen.

ACCEPT GOD AND HAVE LIFE
The most surprising thing is that though series of warning are being spread around that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is a secret cult and no one should accept its teachings, yet it is very easy for a Brotherhood member to convince thousands at a glance while these false prophets cannot change even a little child in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Yes this is so because Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the new kingdom of God, and it is only the children of God that can save the world from hell fire, they are to judge the world and the angels; therefore call them in so that they may not perish. The bible contains the prophecies and testimonies of the work of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ and the faithful Apostles; therefore testify to the world about His glory and power from what you have heard and seen, because the time is at hand and it is through your messages that many souls will gain salvation.

Brethren, we shall not go further, he that has ears to hear let him hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU GOOD FATHER

“CHRIST WAS NOT BORN ON CHRISTMAS DAY”

TEXT: ST. JOHN 8: 1-59

The main duty of a Brotherhood member is to spread the good tidings of this Kingdom to all corners of the world. If there had been a message that the Holy Father is going to anoint people with Holy Oil or Sprinkle Holy Water on people, you would see that the Hall would not accommodate the number of people who would come to receive the blessing.

Now that the Father wants us to come and receive the gospel of life and wisdom, you will not see many people. Some of them say that they would not go there so that the Father might not disgrace them by pointing out their evil doings. You do this because none of you is prepared to refrain from sin.

Read verse 58:
“Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.”
How do you understand that verse which is read to you?

Read verse 33:
“They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
Among these two groups Jesus and the Jews: who knew better than the other, is it Christ or the Crowd? The Jews claimed that they were Abraham’s children and when Christ heard this He told them that before Abraham was born He was already in existence.
When people talk about Our Lord Jesus Christ, they count His genealogy but have they heard of this statement made by Christ that before Abraham He was? Why then do people say that Our Lord Jesus Christ was the son of David? Why do you celebrate 25th December as being the day when Christ was born? Is it true that He was born that day? He had made it clear that ever before Abraham came into existence He had been.
The question is, does the world not tell lies by saying that Christ was born on the Christmas day? If He Himself had said that He had been, right from the foundation of world, how do they come about the statement that He was born on the 25th December?
The Bible Class is conducted in order that you might be well equipped with spiritual weapons so that when you come in contact with any set of people you might apply what you have been taught and so play with them as the cat does with rat.
Day after day you stand up to say that you want to narrate the story of the birth of Jesus Christ. Do you know exactly when He was born? You, who have made such a statement, have you ever referred to this passage that He was even before you who claim to narrate the story of His birth? It seems to Me that the world loves falsehood more than the truth.

Now, what happens is that many people, even the members in Brotherhood, want to know the origin of the Holy Father and the origin of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, instead of practicing the gospel given to them daily. What confuses the whole world is that they are struggling to explore the origin of Brotherhood. If you say that Christ was born in Bethlehem of Judah, compare your statement with the scriptures read to you now.
I have told you time without number that you should not be concerned with the genealogy of any person because it would bring no benefit to you. All the writings about the origin of the Holy Father are absolute falsehood.
The only opponent to the entire world is the testimony of the skull of France. You say that the Leader is a native of Biakpan but the skull confirmed that the Holy Father is not what people regard Him to be. If all of you were to refrain from saying what you do not know, but put into practice the daily gospels rendered to you, you would have not had any problem. Do you really know the meaning of those words of Christ that before Abraham He was?

IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD: THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH:
Read Genesis 1: 25-27
“And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind; and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.”

Have you heard that brethren? It is said, “Let us create man in our own image,” who said these words? Was Abraham there by that time? Does it mean that before man was created God was not in existence or was Christ not in existence or the word of God? Brethren, who is Christ because until now I have been trying to clarify to you this point but you close your eyes and ears and refuse to receive the gospel. Inspite of that you still want to find out when Christ would come from above.

Read St. John 1: 14:
“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”

Who is Christ? He is the word of God. Have you not heard that Christ was always saying that He and His Father are one? Who is God? Who is Christ? Was Christ not in existence before the world was made? Then does this not reveal openly that Christ was, before Abraham came into the world? Do you now believe that the word has come down to the world in the flesh and blood to dwell with men and you see Him in your midst?
If you say that Brotherhood was established recently who said, “let us create man in our own image?” How did that statement come about? Does this not make it clear to you that before the foundation of the world Brotherhood was in existence? This also confirms that Christ was in existence ever before the world was established. God and His Christ have no beginning and no end. They exist forever. Therefore, brethren do not continue to search for the origin of God. He has no end.
I am never interested in all that the worldly people are saying. What interests Me is only to love one another. That is all.

Read Hebrews 7: 3
“Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.”
Who is that person referred to in this passage? Who is that Father and Mother according to the words of the portion read to you? Where did it start and where will it end? This is what is called; “I AM THAT I AM.” Therefore, be not in doubt again, nor should you continue to struggle to write the genealogy of the Holy Father. When you do this, what do you think about loving one another, which is the language to understand? Have you complied with this instruction? Do you not reject the word of life and chose death?

Read 1st Timothy 4: 7
“But refuse profane and old wives fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.”
What I want you to know is that you should not bother to know where one comes from. You should hold fast to the truth, which is in your midst and the gospel, which you receive daily. This is why many in the world are confused.

Read St. Luke 20: 38-47
“For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him. Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said. And after that they durst not ask him any question at all. And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David’s son? And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, the LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand”. Till I make thine enemies thy footstool. David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son? Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples, Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; Which devour widows’ houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.”

Have you heard that brethren? Have you noticed where your troubles lie? You say “Jesus the son of David have mercy on me.” What does the passage tell you? Does it say that He was the Son of David? Even when angel Gabriel announced during His birth that he was the Son of David, was that statement correct? Would you not refrain from saying what you do not know in order to avoid putting yourself into judgement?

BROTHERHOOD IS MISCONCEIVED BY PEOPLE
Brotherhood is likened to the Elephant and which the six blind men visited. Each of them described the elephant differently according to the respective part which each of them touched. The same thing is what the world is purporting the Holy Father to be according to each person’s viewing and wisdom. As a matter of fact, He is never any of those things.
If Christ was the Son of David, why did David himself say, “sit down at my right hand until I bring your enemies under thy footstool said the Lord”. Why then do you say He is David’s Son? The purpose of this lesson is to reveal to you the wisdom of this Kingdom so that when you meet those who say that they have studied the scripture for years, you would not have any problem in out-shinning them.
Right from now be it known to you that some of the words that you come across in the Bible are guesswork. The same thing happens to most of you when you are asked about the origin of your Leader, Olumba Olumba Obu; I will not say a word to all those who are trying to write about the origin of the Holy Spirit. What I know is to love one another.

Be watchful and you will see that very shortly many people from different institutions of learning will publish different ideas about the Holy Father. Whatever a person likes let him do. I am not concerned about that. Have you not heard what was said about Christ? Some people said that He was mad, others said that He was a Samaritan. I am telling you the fact that Christ was the Word sent directly from God. This is hidden from the whole world. This is why you always read in His statement that He and the Father are one or that He is in the Father and the Father in Him. He had always glorified the Father because they are both from the same origin.
Brethren, if you have known that you are made out of the word and that the word is God, you would have known what you say when you want to speak. The only thing you should say should be that the Father is doing His work, because all works are done by Him.

EVERYTHING IS DONE BY THE FATHER
If you have known that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are in you, you would not have feared to say, “I and the Father are one”. Now who among you knows that it is the Father who is doing the work you see? How many of you believe that God, Christ and the Holy Spirit are doing all the wonders that you see daily? The Trinity God is the word and the word is what is doing the mighty works that you witness daily.
The word existed right from the beginning, and through the word were all things made. The human beings, animals in the forest, fishes in the water, the trees of the forest, birds of the air everything created by God were made out of the word and without the word nothing would have been in existence.

Read Genesis 1: 1-8
“In the beginning God created the Heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament, and divided the water, which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.”

Brethren, have you heard that “then God said, Let there be light and there was light.” What is that, is it not the word? Before anything was created, the word had already existed and the word was God. God sent Christ who was also the word through whom all things were made.
Brethren, to prove that the word is a powerful instrument, take for example, when a barren woman comes to receive blessing from the Holy Father, the mere pronouncement that she should go for all things are made well by the Holy Father, the word becomes a child. Some of you come with the thought of having employment and the mere saying “go all is well”, the next day surprisingly to you, inside your house, you receive a letter of appointment to start work immediately whereas you have not written any application. What has brought about all these happenings apart from the word from God’s mouth?
Now many people are afraid that the forth-coming elections might bring about another war. I am asking you where is the war going to be fought. Others are commenting that this present world is becoming more corrupt than ever before. How would this be corrected again?

EVERY CREATURE IS BROTHERHOOD
The question is, does any of you here in Brotherhood now know exactly how he managed to become a Brotherhood member? Some people always ask, what actually is meant by Brotherhood? I tell you that human beings, birds of the air, animals in the forest, trees in the forest, fishes in the water, the grass in the field, even the commonest creature you can think of, all the creatures of God are Brotherhood.
God Himself, Christ, the Holy Spirit and the Angels are all Brotherhood. This is the basic truth whether you like it or not all things are Brotherhood.

Brethren have you not heard of the testimony of a native doctor who went to the bush to pluck some leaves to prepare his concoction, how the roots and leaves told him that he should not use them because they are Brotherhood. It was because of the case that he came to see the Holy Father for blessings. After the father had blessed him, he went back and before he could got to Uyo, he received a message that the people who had sued him to court did not turn up for the case. And because of that the case was struck off in the court and he was therefore, discharged and acquitted. Apart from the case, he had a room filled with juju. On his return from the visit to the Holy Father, went into his room as usual to greet his juju but there was no reply as usual. All of them were completely dead. He wondered what might have happened to them and decided to buy some sacrificial materials to sacrifice to the juju in order to resuscitate them. There is another testimony from Chief Awolowo who visited the Holy Father. He discovered that the humility found in the Leader could not be seen in any ordinary human being on this earth plane. Dr. Aggarwal of India had the same experience. When he arrived home, he discovered that all his charms, concoctions and talisman were all rendered useless.

Then I ask you, whom do you think is doing all these wonders? Are you the person? When you hear Him saying, “Go” I am before and behind. I am everywhere, in the water, sun, moon, and on the surface of the globe. Do you use to believe that what I say will come to manifestation? Do you think that I only make the pronouncement for fun? When you come to receive blessing, in the course of the blessings, you used to hear Me pray to all, touching on all aspects of people’s problems, what do you think is doing the job? Do you think that these works are done by hands or weapons? No, they are done through the words of God. That is why when I utter a word your problems no matter how difficult and numerous has to be subject to the word and vanish away immediately.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF NAME
This great name OLUMBA, has a special assignment, power and dignity and the day that it will be revealed to the whole world, wonders would not fail to happen. That is why you are always advised to be careful on how you use it. The first “OLUMBA” has a special meaning and duty; the second one has its own significance and assignment. “OBU ” has its own different meaning and work. If you have known this, you would not have used it anyhow.
A man wrote the name of the Holy Father with an intention to send it to India for investigation. The Holy Father appeared to him and warned him. He did not heed but sent the name to India. When his colleagues proceeded to investigate what the name means, they were also seriously warned not to tamper with this sacred Name. After an unsuccessful investigation, they pleaded with the Holy Father and sent this Name to their other colleagues in Denmark who warned them that they should not attempt to be in loggerhead with this Name because it is a Holy Name. All the different names that you answer have their different meanings. They are words and are all the time at work. The word “God” is always at work. That was why when Our Lord Jesus Christ was born, the Angel which announced His birth said that He should be called “JESUS”. This is because the name Christ has quite a different meaning and assignment.
Your main problem is that you do not believe in the word. I want all of you to say as from now on that you want God to put these words in your hearts, because God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit are all words of God. There is no other means by which you can have your problems solved other than by the word. Majority of you come here to ask the Holy Father, to say a word so that you may have children, wealth, good health, overcome your enemies and so forth. How many of you have ever said, Father say a word so that I may refrain completely from sin of fornication, adultery, stealing, envying, backbiting, quarreling and vain thoughts. You are witnesses that if I make such a pronouncement all of you will completely put to an end all those evil habits.

THE POWER OF WORDS
Whatever I say out is true and must come to fulfillment. There is no person to oppose Me in any way. The reason why I do not say out words at random is that once I utter a word, it is just like a flame of fire. Take an example from the immediate change of the controller of the Central Bank of Nigeria who was before an expert, in the worldly habits. Once the Father pronounced that as from that moment he was going to forsake all those habits. That came to pass. What ever I say out, no amount of prayers and fasting would remove it. I know the importance and significance of these words. For instance, there was a time when people indulged very much in fornication. Then I asked “Do people think that God who made Annanias and his wife, Sapphira to fall dead when they lied to the Holy Spirit is no more existing?” Immediately after My pronouncement that any man or woman, boy or girl who would indulge in that act, either of the couple would be found dead. That took immediate effect until many people rushed to plead with the father to withdraw the pronouncement.
Now that all of you require worldly wealth and money, you have made up your mind to serve God and not to refrain from evil doings. I am just watching you because when I say you have to do these things, all of you will leave your different offices. Do you understand? You do not know where you are, no, because you think that as you are committing these vices, the Holy Father does not see. There is no other door to this great Kingdom apart from through the word, which is Christ.

St. John 8: 7
“So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.”
How do you understand that passage? Now that you continue to impute sins for other brethren, have you searched yourself whether you have no sin? It would have been better to be perfectly pure before you know what to say to other people. Why do you criticize others when you are full of sins?

JUDGE NOT, SO THAT YOU MAY NOT BE JUDGED
Romans 2: 1
“Therefore thou art inexcusable O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another; thou condemest thyself. For thou that judgest doeth the same things.

Brethren, have you heard that? In all My teachings I ask you to refrain from sins and not to impute sins for others. If you practice these words, you would have no difficulty in life. You who judge others for breaking the law, do you have something to say in order to defend yourself? You call yourself a chief, a king or president yet you have concoctions, talisman and indulge in fornication and adultery, do you have any excuse to be free from the great judgement of God? If you are a thief and another person is like yourself, both of you are birds of the same feather, then whatever is stipulated by the law binds both of you equally.
Upon all the teachings, which you receive daily you still do not make up your mind to forsake a single bit of sin. Inspite of all the teachings and admonishing, people still continue in fornication and committing other vices. What wisdom is there in committing all these sins, don’t you know that when you do these, you are opening a wide way to your enemies to blaspheme the truth? You are all witnesses that none of the good works that are performed here in Brotherhood is ever reported in the newspapers, but the slightest omission would appear on the front page of the Nigerian Chronicle.

Read Verse 9-11 of our text: Have you seen who is your saviour? Inspite of the gospels that you receive daily now, you would realise that the people of olden days practiced the word of God. If it were you, you would not mind stoning the woman. The question now is, among all of you here in Brotherhood and those outside the world, is there any difference between you since you are still continuing in sin and imputing sins for others while you have not purified yourself.
If I should count sin for any of you, you would have seen how the world would look like. The freedom you enjoy is because I do not count sins for anybody; instead I continue to bring you up with the words because God is the truth, and will ever remain a truthful God.
Hebrews 8: 12

“For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.”

I WILL BE MERCIFUL TO THEIR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS:
What do you understand by these words? It is said, right from that day that Our Lord Jesus Christ shed His precious blood, all sins were forgiven. They were never to be remembered any more but this is on a condition. That is, if you are able to keep the instructions He gives to you in the Holy Scriptures, then the precious Blood will redeem you; but if you fail to comply with the teachings imparted to you, you have yourself to blame.
The whole world doubts why Brotherhood members are so wealthy and have no problems as the worldly people have. I have only shown you a short example of the truth in the word of God. The Israelites wanted to use their position as the children of God to enter the Promised Land. They had very long way to travel. The shortest way to enter the Kingdom of God is the one I am showing you. Reckon no sin for anybody and love one another.

St. Matthew 18: 34-35
“And his Lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.”

God does not impute sins for any person but when you see a man who owes you a very small amount, you threaten to imprison him while you were forgiven of your own numerous debts
Is there any of you who does not indulge in reckoning other people’s sins? The reason why I do not reckon any sin on you is that you might emulate Me and be free because when you point your finger at any person, some other person would do likewise to you. If you allow people to their own ways so would you be allowed to yours. If you criticise people, be prepared that you would be criticised as well. Any body who sees another person’s sin is in trouble and under the law. Many of you say that you have been a member in Brotherhood for twenty years yet you have not had any benefits. Yes, you have refused to forgive your fellow brethren. Let it be made clear to everyone that the Father does not call us because of our unrighteousness, but through His love and mercy. Each one of you is expected to do likewise to his brethren. This was the final teaching of Our Lord Jesus Christ that we forgive one another just as He had forgiven us. It is the same teaching that you should forgive each other. If you start now to forgive people you would see that you have perfect peace of mind.
Do you not see how the whole world blasphemes against the Leader by saying that He is Beelzebub, He is one thing or other; Have you ever seen where such power exists or have you ever come across such a person in the different novels that you have read. Think of a person who has no opponents to challenge his power? May be you thought that I am foolish. What I know is love one another. There is not a single person who is ready neither to receive the daily teachings imparted to you nor to practice any of them.His

Romans 12: 20-21
“Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink; for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head; Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”

OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD
Have you heard that? The Holy Father uses good virtues to overcome the evil acts of this world. Do not forget that.
St. Luke 17: 3-4
“Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.”

If a man kicks against Brotherhood let such a person pray fervently for himself. I wonder if that person has been reading this portion of the scriptures. There is nothing as good as forgiving one another, else you can never be in peace and once you refuse to forgive your offender, you have killed him or her already.

James 5: 19-20
“Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.”

I do not want you to be only the hearers of the gospels but I want you to hear the gospels and practice them.

St. John 8: 34-35
“Jesus answered them, Verily, verily I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin: And the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the Son abideth ever.”

Brethren, don’t you see here that any person who commits sin is a slave to sin and would ever remain in the punishment of sin to eternity? Anybody who indulges in sins can never have peace rather he continues to lament, face tribulations and sufferings in his or her life. Such a fellow can never sleep soundly nor eat peacefully. In fact he is a dead person. For example if you have a beloved friend whom you envy for one reason or the other you would agree that you would not have any peace of mind until you go to him and confess your sins before him before you could have peace.

HE THAT IS OF GOD HEARETH GOD’S WORDS
What is difficult in practicing the word of God? Why should the members continue to quarrel and fight in this great school? Why should you want to be dirty again when you have been cleansed?

St. John 8: 47
“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.”

Do not doubt when you see anybody who cannot practice the gospel. This is because such a person is not from the family of God. Not all are true children of God. It is only those who hear and abide by His teachings that are His true children.
No matter the amount of preaching to the worldly people, they would not understand your language and so cannot practice what you are preaching. You will be preaching and they will continue to commit sins in your own presence. If you are able to put into practice all the words that you hear, I tell you that you would have no problems whenever you are offended. If any person offends you, do not wait for the person to plead with you but go and plead with him so that you may have peace. Once a person gets into your trap, he becomes afraid of you. If you remove that fear from him he is released from that bondage.

St. Luke 23: 34
“Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted His raiment, and cast lots.”

FORGIVE ONE ANOTHER
I want every one of you to practice this gospel. If anyone offends you and asks for forgiveness, you should accept him and gain peace to your life. On the other hand when you offend anybody, do not wait until you are told, go straight to the person and apologise to him that you have sinned against him and ask for immediate forgiveness so that peace might be bestowed on you.
It is very shameful for Brotherhood children who after having received this wonderful gospel, they are found misbehaving like untrained children. For example if you go to court, the first question would be “what church do you attend”, and if you mention Brotherhood, you would be asked whether you have reported to your Leader before. This is so because everybody knows that Brotherhood does not sue anybody to court. You are just like dogs. Can any person who is fond of suing others to court, and seeking to revenge when he is so offended be regarded as a Brotherhood member? The scripture says that if you are for the Lord, you will hear and abide by His instructions. If you do not hear His voice you are not His sheep. Our Lord Jesus Christ said not all who call Me Lord, Lord will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven but only those who hear and practice the words of My Father who is in Heaven.

“I bring peace, truth, humility, love, oneness and all the good virtues from God to you. That is why when you commit sin, I will not beat you rather I would advise you not to repeat such practice next time. Whatever you believe in is what holds good with you. Since I do not believe there is any other power but of God, I only advise you to refrain from concoctions and believing in vain powers of this world. And to forgive one another because you are all sinners as well as debtors to that precious blood which was shed on behalf of our sins.”
Colossians 3: 12-13

“Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness, of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any; even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.”
I will not take you further. Let My peace and blessings abide with all of you. Now and forever more. Amen.
Thank Your Good Father

EVERLASTING BIBLE LECTURES DELIVERED BY THE HOLY FATHER,
THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE
LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU
(WHQ) BCS 34 AMBO ST CALABAR NIGERIA

“DESTINY AND THE CHOSEN ONES”

TEXT: ST. JOHN 3: 1 – END.

The Father is aware of the cry of His children. That is why He decided to come down in person. The Father is the one speaking to you and He is the one making the scriptures clear to you. In the past, some of you misconstrued the Father’s gospel and lacked proper understanding of the Bible; however, this particular lecture will be so lucid that everyone can understand it.

In spite of the Father’s continuous preaching against unwholesome behavior, many members are still wallowing in sinful acts. Conscious of their bad acts, these members are very reluctant to come to the Headquarters because they are afraid of being scolded by the Father. They console themselves by saying that the Father is everywhere. But those who refrain from sins would not feel happy to worship at outstation Bethels.
The worldly people would always utter a stream of profanities about Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. They call it demonic, diabolical and other derogatory names. But the children of God believe that Brotherhood is the Kingdom of God. If you believe that Brotherhood is the Kingdom of God, it means you are a child of God. As a result, you are no longer an ordinary human being, but a bonafide child of this Kingdom. This is expressed in the scripture:

“But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me; And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand”. (St. John 10: 26-28).

MAN KNOW THYSELF
Man know thy self. From now on you should know that you are not just a mere mortal. There are people who are ordinary human beings. These groups of people do not want to hear anything about Christ. They are anti-Christ. When you see a worldly person who is afflicted with problems, you pity the person and pray God to cure him, so that he may know the truth. It is the will of God that He calls who ever He likes unto Himself. If it were through man’s making to call people into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, then there would have been no room for members. The children of God need no one to prompt them to accept the truth and abide by it.

The case of Brother Etukat is a good example. He did not make up his mind to become a Brotherhood member. As a child of God he knows the truth and holds fast to it. Initially, he never came to brotherhood in soutane, but in jumper, because he did not want to be identified with Brotherhood of the Cross and Star then, because he was still maintaining his membership in the cult. It was not until Etukat heard the Father’s welcome address of 1982 that he decided to repent and embrace the fold in other words, all along he remained a passive member until he came to himself when he discovered the truth.
This is exactly the situation with you. The truth is hidden from you. If you were to know who you are and where you are, you would not continue to wallow in sin, which goes against the doctrine of this Kingdom. This means that you are still in ignorance.
Reason it out yourself. If you were not a child of God, you would not believe in Me. It is because you are a child of God. And nobody can take you out of the hands of the Father. Despite several attempts by people to divert you from this truth, you still insist on following Me. If you were not a child of God, you would not have professed Him to the whole world.

YOU ARE PREDESTINED TO BEHOLD GOD
Assess the world and see whether there is any one, who on his own opts to accept God, if not for one problem or the other. Most people came to Brotherhood just as Nicodemus went to Christ. Initially, you attend prayers in clandestine way, until ‘scales’ falls off your eyes. Gradually, the Father would bring you in according to the scriptures. He calls those who are destined to be with the Father and those called are justified and glorified. This is supported in the biblical excerpt:

“Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them also he also justified; and whom he justified, them he also glorified”. (Romans 8: 30)

You are in the glory of God. All those in heaven and on earth know and respect you as a child of God. But you do not know your status. This gospel is an eye opener to anyone who did not know that he is a child of God. It is obvious that you proclaim the Father’s name to the whole world because you were destined to do so. None of you would proclaim that I am God, if the spirit of the true God did not influence you. If you were not destined to proclaim the Father, no amount of money would influence you to do this.
Despite all the profanities the world heap on your Father, your faith in Him is unshakable and you proclaim His name publicly. Ordinary mortals like the Pope or Head of state cannot proclaim God because intrinsically, they will hold such notions as false, and baseless. The Bible states it thus:

“He that is of God heareth God’s words; ye therefore hear them not because ye are not of God”. (St. John 8: 47)

THE HANDWORK OF GOD
Not everyone who attends Bible Class lecture comes for that purpose. The person’s ulterior motive may be to steal in this Kingdom. He may put on white soutane and mix with others. Still his mission is to steal. This person may stay in Bible Class lecture from the inception to the end without benefiting from the preaching, because, his mind is not focused there. Whatever happens is the will of God. The power to refrain from eating meat and fish, is not of your own making, but that of the Father. The ability to practice goodness is given by the Father and is an indication that you are a child of God.
A person who is not the child of God would never accept the words of God, no matter how lofty the ideas. And such a person cannot shun fornication, adultery, stealing, among other vices. This is the handiwork of God, which explained by a technical term called DESTINY. This has subtle expression in the scripture:

” Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them also he also justified; and whom he justified, them he also glorified.” (Romans 8:30)

MY MISSION
The Father is using a rather difficult language to expatiate His teachings and unless you have spiritual competence, you cannot understand Him. And, you can only have spiritual competence when you are in spirit. However, the Father has reduced this complex spiritual language to a very simple one for easy understanding by everybody who is acquainted with His teachings. This is because His aim is to reform mankind. His words move mountains. He uses words to place things in their right places.
Everything is under your feet, why then do you contest for presidency, governor-ship and other worldly positions, when your position is already higher than these posts. You would not want to disgrace yourself, if only you have known your position. The love of God is sufficient for everybody. He came for our sakes to save and to redeem mankind from sins.

YOU ARE TO JUDGE THE WORLD
The hope of everybody is in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. If this is true, why do you go into politics, when the president, governor and commissioners seek for power and protection from this Kingdom? They come for prayers secretly. Why are you not contented with your position as the child of God? These worldly positions have a temporary life span, whereas your position in the Kingdom is as permanent as the Kingdom itself. This is a place where you cannot be victimized. In addition, you are to judge the world while in this place what then do you find in the world when the rulers of the world themselves are uncertain, unprotected and always living in fear.
You have every reason to rejoice over the coveted status the Father accords you. The entire world particularly the white, are so aggrieved, because this truth has not been revealed through one of them. The fact that you are endowed with the truth and blessing of God is not of your own making. It is by the grace of the Father.
“The spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. And if children, then heirs, heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God”. (Romans 8: 16-19).

BROTHERHOOD IS THE ANSWER
There is no other news in the entire world other than the news about Brotherhood. Have you ever given a thought to the fact that you are a child of God before this lecture? You never knew yourself as a child of God, that is why you have been behaving the way you have. Know that, as the child of a king, you are automatically a king. Having known your stand now as a true child of God, can you still believe that you have no Father, money or any other material things? You need not lament over any condition but always rejoice with your Father. Since your Father is a millionaire, you are equally a millionaire. There is Spiritual song, which has it that:

“My children come; come, everything is for you, the heaven and the earth are for you”.

YOU ARE IN CONTROL
With this type of promise, how can you keep on crying? Those of you who are fond of lamenting should be consoled by the wordings of the song. The little suffering you face on earth cannot be compared with the glory and blessings, which you get from this Kingdom. God Himself is a witness that we are the children of God. But many people claim that they are the children of Mr. This or Mrs. That, and from one village or the other. You claim to be offspring of this family and not the other one. Why do you deny being the child of God when God gives you the right of son-ship? Your major problem is faithlessness otherwise; you would not lament because of poverty. All the angels know you. You are in control of death, heaven and earth. The trouble is that you are not aware of this fact.

EVERYTHING IS FROM GOD
When the Father wants you to come into His Kingdom, you complain of lack of money, poor- health, among other minor problems, which have no place in the Kingdom. Whatever a man has is from God. This is expressed in the Biblical excerpt below:
John answered and said, “A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. Ye yourselves bear me witness that I said; I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom which standeth and heareth him, rejoiced greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice; this my joy therefore is fulfilled. He must increase, but I must decrease”. (St. John 3: 27-30).
Many people persuade you to leave Brotherhood, that you worship a human being and say all sort of profanities about this Kingdom and its members. The question is are these same people not enjoying the goodness of this Kingdom? And if these people enjoy the blessing of this Kingdom, what stops them from propagating the truth? People are so much engrossed in carnal things that they do not have much to do with the words of God. By propagating the truth, you will definitely create awareness in the world, when God will be given His due recognition. This being done, you will share in whatever glory given to God. As the child of God, you should aid others to recognize God.

GOD IS ALL IN ALL
I have told you that I am not Christ, nor am I elder or chorister. As such, I am not the doer of the great works going on in the world. Rather, it is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit that is doing this work. You want credit for a good work; I do not want credit because the Father does everything. I have no idea of what is happening in this Kingdom. It is the Father that preaches heals, manages everything in this Kingdom. He is all and in all.

“And when all things shall be subdued unto Him, then shall the son also Himself be subjected unto him that put all things under him, that God may be hungry for food or material things.

If you are a member of Brotherhood, members of your family are the members of the fold and to a large extent, the country. Just as it was because of the sin of a man that everybody suffered so also is it because of Christ that every man receives salvation. Why are you bothered about your father, mother or sister who refuses to become a member? Every Nigerian is a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. For instance, if the white men want to claim ownership of the Sole Spiritual Head, what do you think Nigeria will do? Will the country accept such claim? The president of this country knows the might of the Father.
Have you not known that Olumba Olumba Obu (O.O.O.) has neither beginning nor end? The O.O.O. is found in London, America and Mecca among other places. One of our Christ Students put on an emblem with the Father’s picture, which was seen by a Muslim who confirmed that the Father is present at Mecca. The Muslim told the Christ’s Student that the way Muslim reverence the person whose picture he (the Christ Student) wore is not what he (the Christ Student) should put on to go to common places. At Mecca, the Muslim went on, “where the altar is situated and where the name of the Being (O.O.O) is written, the radiance is so great that the stone is covered with a cloth”.

“This is a clear indication that the whole world knows the Father.
“He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true”. (St. John 3: 33).

From the above Bible excerpt, it is true that you are His witness. And because of that, the world says you are a devil. As a witness you should not give the kudos which should have been given to God to Olumba. Do not proclaim Olumba as the doer of these mighty works. It is wrong. Did I not tell you not to proclaim Olumba as God, Jesus or Christ? God has come on His own. And let us accept Him. We are all His children: both plants and other animals belong to Him. We should love one another and that is paramount. It was wrong to have given credit, which could have been given to God, to Abraham, Moses, Noah and other prophets of old at the expense of God. You have to recognize God and His Christ as the controller of all things.

“And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, the kingdom of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and His Christ; and he shall reign forever and ever”. (Revelation 11: 15).

EVERY MAN SHALL KNOW GOD
I enjoin you to proclaim to the entire world that the Lord and His Christ are supreme, and they are the ones doing everything on earth. It is high time you stopped praising any man, and giving kudos to ordinary person instead of God, and this generate controversies and misconception in the world. There is no human power than can do what you behold in the world. People all over the world acknowledge the Father’s presence. I have no knowledge of anything. I am not literate. In fact, I do not exist at all. But you would not believe Me. You keep on telling people that Olumba is God; He is Jesus Christ. When I worship God and knock My head on the ground. What makes Me God, when I am more humble to the Father than you. If I were to be God, I would have possessed unique attributes to make Me off from other human beings.
God has sent many of His representatives to the world at different times and in different places in the world history. I wonder what you expect from Him again. All of us are the children of the Father, and no one is the greatest. That is why your proclamation of Olumba Olumba Obu as Jehovah disturbs the world. Everybody accepts the fact that there is God now on earth. But the moment you go further to say that His name is Olumba Obu, they are disgusted. Others who do not oppose this truth will jealous that Olumba should have come from their geographical area. This idea causes serious problems and can thwart the original message intended by the speaker:
According to the scriptures, you need not teach your neighbor to know God. But all shall know Him, from the least to the greatest:

“And they shall not teach every man his neighbor and every man his brother, saying “know the Lord”, for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest; For, I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more”. (Hebrews 8: 11-12)

This point was clearly manifested on a woman whose husband was a celestial church member. The woman decided to become a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star without the consent of the husband. When the man become aware of this, he divorced the woman, the Father appeared to him and queried him over his action. When the Father revealed Himself to the man, the man immediately joined Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; they reunited in love. This is God’s Kingdom.

HEED GOOD ADVICE
Apart from the Father, nobody has the power of revelation.
“All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him “. (St. Matthew 11: 27).

You would not heed good advice. I have instructed you not to proclaim Olumba as God, because, God is here Himself and He does everything on His own. The Father is the one preaching He heals and He performs all miracles. It is God who has the power to judge. No human being could judge. Your duty, therefore, is to practice this injunction, “Love one another”. This is the reign of God and His Christ. This Kingdom is God’s Kingdom. If God does not reveal Himself to a person, he cannot know Him. And if He does not chase you to do His job, you cannot do it successfully. Therefore, the best thing to do is for man to love one another.
Most of you are promised valuable things if you can jilt Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Why do you want to belong to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star by all means where there is no material offer? The only promise from Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is that, you refrain from sin, you will receive salvation. Many people backslide from Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and go where wealth, and all the material things of life could only be found because of what is written in the Bible thus:

“Little children, it is the last time, and as ye have heard that anti-Christ shall come, even now are there many anti-Christs; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out from us, but they were not of us;for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. (1 John 2: 18-19).

DO NOT REMAIN IN SIN
Those who renounce Brotherhood of the Cross and Star are not the true Brotherhood of the Cross and Star members. Some of them come to Brotherhood because of food, money or to have a wife or children. In other words, one problem or the other must have brought them to the fold and, the moment their problems are solved, they go back to the world. But those who became members because of proper acceptance of the Father will resist anything that can separate them from the fold no matter their experiences in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Therefore, do not be astonished to see members denounce Brotherhood of the Cross and Star despite their position in the Kingdom. When these false members vacate this Kingdom, that is the time the true members, who were predestined will come to rejoice with the Father throughout their life span. At this time, the wealth of the Father will belong to the legitimate children and they will be at liberty to enjoy the Father’s wealth.

My words to you are Rejoice with the Lord. Give to everyone respect and be in peace with one another, because the children of God must not remain in sins. Let My peace and blessing be upon the whole world. Amen.

EVERLASTING BIBLE LECTURE DELIVERED BY THE HOLY FATHER,
LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU
THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE

(WHQ) BCS 34 AMBO ST CALABAR NIGERIA

“GOD’S PROMISE AND ITS EFFECT”

TEXT: 1ST CORINTHIANS 12: 1- END.

LOVE IS GREATEST
I have decided to use the above text as a source of this lecture because of the turn out of events in the world today. I want everyone to reflect on the text with the view of deriving one or two lessons from the excerpt. If one looks around the world today to see what is going on, he will discover that so many people are too arrogant. Even here in Brotherhood some people do not allow others to speak where they are because they think that those ones are not as rich as they are. The fact that you have money does not make you a reservoir of knowledge. Many people think that because they are rich, they are therefore the only cocks to crow. People do not want any other person to play any part in the Bethel because they claim they single-handedly built it. Many people who are blessed with different gift brag and boast about their talents. Those who are blessed with the gift of vision would stop giving visions to people at the slightest provocation so that people would know their importance in the Bethel. Those given the ability to preach would discontinue any time they are not happy. These people would always hold people to ransom all because they want people to recognize their talent. They want to prove that they are indispensable. These sums up the fact that man is arrogant with what he has.
Another point to note is that everybody is a part in the whole system. That is to say, no one can effectively function in isolation. The whole system within which we all operate with our various gifts could best be likened to a combustible engine. Even a small nut can render the whole engine ineffective. But if all the component parts are functional, then the engine can operate effectively. Whatever is your talent is for you to contribute your quota to the success of the entire system. I want you to know that of all the gifts, love is the greatest of them all. This is why it is summarized in verse 31 of the above text thus:

“But covet earnestly the best gifts; and yet show I unto you more excellent way”.

There is no person, nation, or group of people that can shape this world to the standard expected by God. Neither the whites nor the blacks can make the world a good place to live in. This is to emphasize the fact that no one should look down on anybody, no matter how lowly placed the person is. Do not judge anybody if the person is not practicing the word of God. Put in your best and work towards the glory of God. What you should know is that, everybody is blessed with one gift or the other and certain individuals are entitled to certain rights and privileges, which others are not.
Do not discriminate against any creature. Every creature has a definite purpose on earth. Everything works towards the glory of the Creator. As far as love is concerned, we are indivisible whole. We should not bother ourselves for anything because everything has its own function. Man cannot perform the duty of fishes, animals, birds, rodents, insects, bacteria, and other micro organisms and vice versa. God has a purpose for His Creation. Man should shun discrimination and work towards helping others to function effectively for the overall interest of the entire system.

This lecture is a thought provoking one. Someone may say that he is not a member of Brotherhood but the person is a taxi driver who conveys people from one place to another, by the virtue of his job, he is a member of Brotherhood because, without him, the movement of people could have been impossible. And if people could not move from one place to another, they would not have performed their duty. The entire system therefore would have paralyzed. We are all members of Brotherhood and functional units of the whole system. If one of us ceases to function effectively, the consequences is that the entire system will be affected adversely.
For someone to claim that he is not a member of Brotherhood shows that the person is a liar. As long as you were created by God, you are a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. It does not matter where you belong. Wherever you are, you must perform your functions. Everybody has a task ahead of him to perform in order to enhance the effectiveness of the overall system within which we all exist. For instance before one accepts to live in a decent modern house, many things are taken into consideration. There must be a kitchen, toilet, bathroom, water, electricity among other necessary things and if a house lacks these, then it cannot be seen as a modern house.

WHO IS A BROTHERHOOD?
The government provides her citizens with social facilities like schools, hospitals, markets, recreational centers etc. All these and many more things are meant to improve the lots of the masses, yet they claim they are not members of Brotherhood. The fact that you contribute to better the lots of human race is enough for you to be a Brotherhood member. So long as you are interested about the comfort of your fellow man, you are a Brotherhood member because Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is love. You should know that all gifts are from God and no matter how a man lives his life, God is responsible.
The spirit in human beings is the same but people are gifted differently. We should therefore see ourselves as one indivisible whole. If anything happens to anyone (a unit in the system) will definitely affect all of us. This is so because one faulty unit has a negative chain effect on the entire system. The entire world is one and we are attached to it through love. The angels, sun, moon, star, men, birds, animals, plants, insects, water, air etc, are all components of this system. What keeps the world is the unity, which exists among God’s creation. Even within your body, there are various functional sub-units. If any part fails to function, you will automatically cease to function.

“Do not fail to serve God because of one thing or the other. You should know that God sees and knows everything. You want to be a millionaire, Governor, President, Professor etc but have you intimated the owner of these positions? Why do you think that you can successfully get hold of these things without first informing God, the owner and Creator of every- thing and positions? You should know that, if you work for me I will work for you. Endless and brutal struggle for wealth and position are not the best ways to get them. God is the owner of everything, the heaven, the earth etc, are all His. He is also responsible for sharing them. He gives His things to those He loves and to those who serve Him and keep to His words; and not to someone who scrambles and wants to grab”
Another interesting point to note is that, in each of these functional sub-divisions, there is always one to lead and control the affairs and proper functioning of the entire set up. That is why in all countries, communities, towns, villages and families, a particular person is elected to rule other members. It is sheer foolishness to think that a man cannot rule over you. This is the handiwork of God and nobody can change this order. The Scripture at 1st Corinthians 9: 24-27 states:

“Know ye not that they, which run in a race, run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air. But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection; lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a cast away”.

By now, you should realize that, whatever happens on earth was already recorded in the scriptures. It is said that, “…they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize”.
Now, take a look at the politics of the world, many people will vie for a post where millions of money is spent on campaign yet, only one person will be elected into the post and others will suffer defeat and financial loss. The world is working according to God’s plan. Man must rule to confirm God’s words and many will fight to be elected to rule but at last, one out of the lot will be selected. Whoever is elected will be the ruler, and as a part of that system, one cannot reject that person’s rule. Immediately the mantle of leadership is given to the elected person, he becomes the ruler and you, the subject. If you cannot accept man to rule you, I wonder whether you want a tree to rule you. It is only man that was created to rule and it is a matter of necessity that man must rule.
People’s ambition for leadership and rejection of another leader comes from arrogance. It is better to accept things the way God wants them. We should not discriminate against anybody because we are one in God. Do not rejoice for your high position, qualification or sex. Many people make false claim that it is president Babangida who is ruling Nigeria. If this is true, what about God? If there were no air, land, trees, water, human beings etc, as created by God, what would he rule? Many people are myopic by misappropriating Government funds because according to them, government money belongs to nobody. This trend should stop. You cannot cheat someone in order to survive. Those you cheat to swell your purse are God’s children. Such unwholesome act cannot contribute to the well being of the world.
God keeps you in your position so that you can work hard to alleviate other’s problems. You are not to use your position to contribute to another person’s woes in life. And you should share whatever God gives you with others. When making policy decisions, you should be fair to all persons irrespective of tribe, class and sex. Let the interest of the people you rule be uppermost. Do not introduce politics into religion. In governing, you should be guided by God’s injunctions and you should practice love.
Do not see yourself as being superior to another person and you should not look down on any particular race or tribe as inferior. God owns everything that sustains man. We should see ourselves as our brother’s keepers and know that whatever one does to another, same will be done to him. And believe also that whatever a man sows same will he reap. Do not struggle for position. One thing you must know is that, one person must rule at a time. And if you were destined to rule at the appointed time, you will definitely rule. Do not blame anybody for the strange happenings in the world because God is responsible for everything. Take this illustration as a lesson.

ILLUSTRATION
There was a queen and a widow with four children who lived in a certain village. The queen, because of her position claimed one of the widow’s plots. The widow being a less-privileged person went to the court to seek redress. But contrary to her expectation, the court decided the case in favor of the queen. Out of frustration, the widow decided to seek vengeance in the hands of God. She got baptized into a particular church and then presented her case to the pastor of the church. The pastor advised her to forget about the plot but that she should take up preaching. Before now, she had been given a religious pamphlet to read. She was touched by the contents of the pamphlet. As such, the woman and her children accepted to do the work of God wholeheartedly.
The queen had no child and during holidays she played host to her nephew. One day this boy was still enjoying his holiday with the queen, he came across the widow’s daughter and became interested in her and decided to marry her. The boy vowed never to get married to any other woman if not the widow’s daughter. He loved the girl so much that He would not want anything to stand between him and the girl. And to lure the widow into accepting her daughter to be married to the queen’s nephew, the boy decided to undertake the entire financial problem and education of the widow’s other children.
The fact that the queen had no child, this boy became the heir to her property and estate. Not long after the nephew took the widow’s daughter for marriage, the queen died. And according to her “Will”, the nephew became the owner of all she had acquired including the land she usurped from the widow. As God would have it, because of the extent of love the man had for his wife (the widow’s daughter), he also made his will where the wife became the legal inheritance of his property. It was not long the man also died. And now the questions are, who was the owner of both the queen’s property and that of the nephew? Whom would you say is responsible for that situation?

GOD’S PROMISE TO ABRAHAM
The above illustration confirms the fact that whatever God keeps for you; there is no one on earth that can take it from you. It becomes a matter of amusement for one to see a man scramble for property and even go to the extent of killing another for it. You scramble and eliminate people simply because you want to be wealthy. Is this behavior in line with the teachings of Christ? The scripture says:

“Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all other things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6: 33”.

Do not fail to serve God because of one thing or the other. You should know that God sees and knows everything. You want to be a millionaire, Governor, President, Professor etc. But have you intimated the owner of these positions? Why do you think that you can successfully get hold of these things without first informing God, the owner and Creator of everything and positions? You should know that, if you work for me, I would work for you. Endless and brutal struggle for wealth and position are not the best ways to get them. God is the owner of everything, the heaven, the earth etc, are all His. He is also responsible for sharing them. He gives the things to those He loves and to those who serve Him and keep to His words, and not to someone who scrambles and wants to grab. If you like consult witch doctors or hire thugs to assist you to eliminate your competitors, you are deceiving yourself because the will of God must be done at the end of it all. I want you to take particular note of the following texts:

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all other things shall be added unto you St. Matthew 6: 33

“And Jesus said unto him, thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy mind Matt.22: 37.

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers, but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. 1 Peter 3: 12
“But if any man love God, the same is known of him”. 1 Corinthian 8: 3
“For bodily exercise profiteth little, but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come”. 1 Timothy 4: 8
Ponder over these excerpts. The carnal things and the struggle to achieve them have little profit. How long can one stay in the office as a governor or president in spite of his desperate moves and of what gain are these positions to God? One must know that the things of this world have a limited life span but God’s things are for eternity. Nothing is greater than the gift of God. Everything belongs to Him and He gives these things only to those He loves.
It is sheer foolishness for one to be so desperate and frantic to get at a particular goal. You should bear in mind that you can not get what God did not give to you despite your effort. And except He loves you, you cannot get anything from Him. For you to induce God to love you, then you must as of necessity, do His will.
Why did God make Abraham the Father of all nations? Was it not because of his righteousness and faith in God? Romans 4: 13. If this is so, why then do you feel like killing anybody who stands between you and your goal in order to attain your dream? How comfortable are those who forced their ways into power? Have they not been abased?

I bring the truth to you through My teachings because the world is empty and vain. I do not want anybody to fall into the similar ways of old. I want everybody to realize that there is no gain in the worldly positions and wealth. The best and most rewarding thing to do is to serve God and receive His blessings, which will bring other things to you. The rational thing for man to do is to shun all the unprofitable things and decide to serve God with all his body and soul so that He may see him through his problems and exalt Him accordingly. Try God by doing His work and see if He will not surprise you with His abundant blessings.
What on earth is greater than the promise God made to Abraham? God told him to flee his birthplace to an unknown land. He did not resist but hearkened to the still voice. Today has the promise of God to Abraham not come to pass? And that promise has passed on to his descendants. So what we enjoy now are the fruits of God’s promise to our forefather – Abraham.

Galatians 3: 27-29 states:
“For as many of you that have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male of female, for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise”.

We are the heirs of Abraham. In other words, all the children of God are the heirs of Abraham. Abraham was called the friend of God because he pleased God by obeying Him.
Those politicians, millionaires, warriors and impostors of the world who want to get a particular thing by fair or foul means should read this gospel between lines. All those who seek for power, thieves, and dupes, among others the message of this gospel should dawn on you now. I laugh you to scorn whenever I sit back to see all the mess you engage in all in the name of succeeding. And for the fact that you want the Father to effect your request, you come here to give false impression about yourself. Immediately you leave this premises, you go back to your former habit and claim that you tricked Leader Obu and got what you wanted? In this case, you are rather deceiving yourself and not God.

LEARN FROM HISTORY
You cannot get anything from God except you heed to His instruction. Your claim that you have got everything is completely false. You have not got anything. God is the owner of everything and same He gives to whom He loves. And except you do His work you cannot get His love. And except He loves you, you cannot get His favour. If God decides to give the entire world to you, there is nobody who can take it from you. This is the knowledge that the world is yet to come by. I therefore charge you to go out and get the world informed that God is the owner and giver of all things. And our father, Abraham had God’s favour for his faith and obedience to God; any of his descendants who abide by God’s words will live to share in these blessings. As long as we are the heirs of Abraham, that promise has been extended to us.
According to the scriptures, God promised to give Abraham a son and that son was no other than Christ. Nobody can nullify God’s promise to man. Read Galatians 3: 15-16. God made this promise to Abraham four thousand years before the actual birth of Christ. We are all the heirs of Abraham, as well as Christ’s. The birth of Jesus the Christ has a manifestation of Abraham the Father of all nations. Have you ever heard another person who is being referred to as the father of all nations apart from Abraham? The most important note from this promise is that, Our Lord Jesus Christ is the greatest of all creations of physical manifestations. And whoever refuses to give Him His due honour is a sinner. Even when Christ knew His place as the greatest, He did not blow His trumpet; He rather humbled Himself even to the death on the cross. In God’s appreciation, He exalted Christ as the Lord, “to the glory of God the Father”. Read Philippians 2: 6-11. God’s promise is ever sure and His will is most favourable and takes precedence over any other thing. He is only the perfect Being. This is why the scripture has it that:

“Except the Lord builds the house, they labour in vain, that build it; except the Lord keep the city the watchmen watches but in vain”. (Psalm 127: 1)

What have you learnt from the mistakes of others like Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar, Herod and even the Soviet Union of the contemporary generation? What God has done in this generation in particular cannot be under-emphasized. His works in other generations were not as pronounced as the ones of this generation. Before now, the USSR had no regard for God, and their citizens claimed that their country was the strongest and most powerful group in the world. God overlooks their boast and gave them time to repent but they did not. Today, they have been abased and the world does not know God is responsible for the economic and political woes of the Soviet Union. America believes that what befalls USSR is their own making. But today, I want everybody to know that every happening is the exclusive responsibility of God. Once He makes any pronouncement, it must as of necessity, come to pass at the appointed time. All the frivolous requests like I want a son, cars, money, mansion, qualification, position”, etc, are baseless. If you serve God and as a result you induce Him to make a promise to you, it then means that you have gotten everything. The so- called world super powers spent their resources and time on manufacturing deadly weapons. The entire world was afraid that when these weapons would eventually be launched, the world would be brought to an abrupt end, but I always promised that despite the huge investment of unimaginable amount of money, no country would launch them. Many people scoffed My words because according to them, the possibility of the super powers not launching these deadly weapons was very remote. But the question was how could they launch it when the owner of the world has not given them approval?
I had made mention of these things in My gospel entitled, “What is Nigeria’s Ideology”? In it, I mentioned that I have set South Africa free of Apartheid. It was a matter of time. The fact that I had pronounced freedom for them, that ended their sufferings. The word ‘LET’ has never been so effective except now that the Creator has decided to make use of it again. Its first use was during creation. All pronouncements are therefore made to materialize with “LET”.
The main issue of this gospel is taken from Psalm 34: 1-end. The Lord has promised to slay the wicked and those who hate righteousness shall be desolated. If you think that your duty is to scramble for land and eliminating others to reach the top, you will definitely suffer a mysterious death. If death is the price you have to pay for your inordinate ambition.

It is often said that the children of the so- called prominent people do not turn out good in most cases. There are reasons for such a situation. A poor man cannot be scrambling for land that does not belong to him rather, it is the affluent who go about depriving the less privileged people of their legitimate property. But it should be borne in mind that the riches acquired by foul means do not last.
Anybody who inherits evil becomes an evil person and anyone who is groomed in righteousness becomes a righteous person. If you are bad, then your children will definitely turn out bad. Take King Saul for instance. His two sons both perished in the war between Israel and the Philistine and their father Saul died as a result of the sad news. That marked the end of Saul. Recall Prophet Eli and his two sons. Though Eli would have been succeeded by one of his sons when he died, God has a way of doing His things. God decided to pass through Hannah and brought forth Samuel, the child of promise who was favoured by God to succeed Eli. Eli only regarded Samuel who was taken to him by his mother as a tithe and not as a threat to his throne. He did not have the slightest idea that Samuel would succeed him. It was the will of God for Eli’s reign to end with him by eliminating his sons who were the possible heirs to his throne. They were both killed in the war front because Samuel was destined to succeed Eli.
I am warning you emphatically to fear the Lord for there is a price for those who do not fear Him. God can do anything, anytime without your consent and nobody can counter His decision. You have a duty to perform and that is to spread the gospel of God to all the nooks and cranny of the world. You must do it willingly because it was written about you. If you refuse to do what God assigns to you, you must get ready to face His wrath. The punishment may extend to your offspring.

THE FALL OF ISRAEL
Take the case of Israel into consideration and learn from it. Before now, Israel had been God’s chosen people, but because of disobedience, they have now become a laughing stock in the world today. They now engage in wars here and there, losing millions of people. What now remains of the Israelites is what should best be described as refugees. In the whole world, no king was ranked higher than the king of Israel i.e. King Solomon. But because of the adultery and idolatry, he went contrary to God’s ways. This led to the fall of Israel, which hitherto had dominated the world history but today, it has fallen to rise no more.
Israel, which was a renowned race, has almost completely gone out of the list of high-ranking nations. The Roman Empire has almost completely wiped them out of the promised- land. If they had strictly adhered to the words of God, their Creator, Israel would have been the Kingdom of God by now. What is the position of Israel today with threats by other nations and of people? Their disobedience is the cause of all these troubles. If they had obeyed God, they would not have had any trouble. If God stands by you there is no man who can challenge you and go scot-free.
Seventy years after the death of Christ, the Roman Empire killed Israelites leaving only seventy thousand people and forced them out of their land. They are now living on charity from advanced nations. If you care for anything good to come your way, you have to honor God. The Americans you are hearing about today are Britons who decided to look for a new place to settle and when they discovered that parcel of land, they decided to settle there. The present land occupied by the Americans belongs to Indians. Why they survive till today is that, most of them have accepted to serve God. You can know this when you take into account the number of churches that have their Headquarters there. It is only five hundred years now since British nationals occupied that land. This explains why war broke out when British nationals wanted to leave Britain for the new world – but for the fact that God stood by them because God knew that these sets of people would serve Him in future in the new land. It is not only the Britons alone who dwell there. Africans too are living there and they are the ones referred to as the black Americans. The blessings of this land knew no bounds when they accepted Brotherhood of the Cross and Star with open hands.

This “new- world” does not scoff with God. Many impostors have gone to America to deceive the people that they are gods so as to get houses, cars, aircraft etc by false pretence. This is only possible in America for the people want God by all means. This consciousness is the source of their rapid pace of development, technologically and economically. They lead the world now. America knows and values God more than any other country of the world. Before their Senate starts a session, the Senators have to commit the day’s business into God’s hands. They seek for God’s leadership in everything they do. But here, you are still pouring libation.

May My Peace and Blessings be with the entire world. Amen.

Thank You Good Father

“HOW TO ESCAPE PROBLEMS”

TEXT: ST. MATTHEW 8: 1 – END

“When he was come down from the mountain, great multitude followed Him. And behold, there came a leper and worshipped Him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth His hand, and touched him, saying I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
And Jesus saith unto him, see thou tell no man; but go thy way, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto Him a Centurion, beseeching Him, and saying Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of paralysis, grievously tormented. And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
The Centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof; but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this man, go, and he goeth; and to another, come, and he cometh, and to my servant, do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to them that followed, verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
And I say unto you, many shall come from the east and west and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the Kingdom of heaven. But the children of the Kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. And Jesus said unto the Centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the same hour. And when Jesus was come into Peter’s house, He saw his wife’s mother laid, and sick of a fever. And he touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she arose, and ministered unto them.
When the even was come, they brought unto Him many that were possessed with devils, and He cast out the spirits with the word, and healed all that were sick. That it might be fulfilled, which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses. Now when Jesus saw great multitude about Him, He gave commandment to depart unto the other side. And a certain scribe came, and said unto Him, Master, I will follow thee where so ever though goest; And Jesus saith unto him, the foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay His head.
And another of His disciples said unto Him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. But Jesus said unto him, follow Me; and let the dead bury their dead. And when He was entered into a ship, His disciples followed Him, and behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, in so much that the ship was covered with the waves; but He was asleep. And His disciples came to Him, and awoke Him, saying, Lord, save us; we perish. And He said unto them, why are ye fearful. O ye of little faith? Then He arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
But the men marveled, saying; what manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him;
And when He was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met Him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no man might pass by that way. And behold, they cried out, saying, what have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time? And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding, so the devils besought Him, saying, if thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine. And He said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine, and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.
And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils. And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they besought Him that He would depart out of their coasts.”

PRACTISE RIGHTEOUSNESS
Beloved, you cannot deny the fact that you have been exhaustively taught the word of God in this Kingdom. The Holy Spirit is the one teaching. It behoves you therefore to listen to the true teachings of the Holy Spirit and put them into practice. You loose nothing listening to those lives giving teachings, yet you do not practice them. All the people of the world are today complaining of one form of hardship or the other because they have rejected the word of God. It is impossible for anyone that listens to and put the true teachings of the Holy Spirit into practice, to have problems. This therefore, reveals to you that the problems you encounter lies in offshoot of your disobedience to God’s injunctions.
Keeping the injunctions of God is trouble soothing. This therefore is the reason why the true children of God do not have problems. For one to qualify to be a true child of God, he must listen to the word of God and practice the same.
Beloved, righteousness is all that is expected from you. If somebody offends you do not avenge him, neither should you judge nor impute sin on him. Rather, be forgiving. Only God, you should realize is the judge. He is the one to avenge for His children. Always you have to bless and not to curse. This you need do to fulfill the scriptural demand for the children of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ taught that you should love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you. So that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He makes His sun to shine for both evil and good people and sends His rain on the just and on the unjust. (Read: St. Matthew 5: 44-45). Again, you have been told, “Resist not an evil doer”?
Always think good of others. Think no ill of another person and do not engage in any act that is capable of provoking your neighbor. Love everybody and do him or her good through all your years. Do not cause division, be charitable to all and let your existence be a source of sustenance to the helpless.
You have known that the key to over-coming temptation is fasting and prayer. You have to fast and pray for the betterment of others. In supplication you have to relate to God the problems of others and seek the same to be solved for them. In so doing, you have become a source of solution to people when they are in trouble. No doubt, many people have problem even when they pose as the children of God. This is because they tend to over look the usefulness of prayers. What types of children of God are they, if they do not start everything they do with prayers? I have taught you to always start all your activities with prayers so that God on invitation through such prayers will come in and direct you aright. Any thing you eat, without first praying over it is not clean. You have to pray before you eat else such food is unclean. In fact, it is not food but poison. Even the house you have built, if you pack and live in that house without blessing it, it remains unsanctified and in fact, unsafe, for children of God’s habitation.

Beloved, My peace and blessing abide with the entire world. Now and forever more. Amen.

Thank you Good Father

THE BEGINNING OF THE END

TEXT OF DISCOURSE: MATTHEW 24: 1-51.

PESTILENCE: VISITATION OF GOD’S WRATH
Imagine what is happening today in the world. Place this side by side, with the text above; they are at par. Frequent occurrences of earthquake, famine and other natural phenomena that take place in different parts of the world, are visitation of God’s wrath. These occur not in vain but in fulfilment of the scripture as stated at Matthew 24:6-8

“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet”. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes, in diverse places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.
This pestilence and natural Phenomena marks the beginning of the end of the world.
In a reply to the disciple’s question, Our Lord Jesus Christ predicted wars and other natural pestilence to mark the end of the world. Besides, the war of God will come on the judgement day. I devote my time preaching to you to refrain from sins, but you would not listen. With all the indications and harbingers to the end of the world, yet you are ‘not moved’. I wonder what will convince you that the end is fast approaching. The day of judgement is the day which God will judge the world and reprimand unrighteous people. There will be no gunshots. Only fire blast from the sky will gut all parts of the earth. However, the righteous ones will be saved.

HARBINGERS OF THE END
I have told you to shun stealing, fornication, occult practices and other unwholesome acts that deprave the society. The end of time is at hand, and the judge is at your threshold.
All the signs he talked about are manifesting one after the other. These signs and harbingers are to prompt your preparation for the last day. The end of the world is quite near but nobody knows vividly the actual day or time. It could be today. Hear what Our Lord Jesus Christ said:
Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: Luke 21:10.
He further predicted that: And many false prophets will arise and shall deceive many: Matthew 24:11.
All these predictions and harbingers have come to pass.
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is analogous to Noah’s Ark. All the children of God must gather at Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. At the last day, anything that is outside the fold is sure to meet its doom. This explains why the scripture states:

‘And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the son of man: Luke 17:26

BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR: THE ARK OF NOAH
All the unrighteous people will perish at the judgement day, and the righteous ones will start the new World. This is to fulfil what the scripture states:
Hebrews 12:29: ‘For our God is a consuming fire’

Are you waiting to be consumed by fire? The fire will be a magnanimous conflagration, which will ravage natural things and human artefacts. I enjoin you to de-emphasise materialism, such as money, children, property among others and try to help yourself get out of the impending doom ahead. This explains an adage, that says: ‘Look for the black sheep when it is not yet dark’. When you refrain from sins and get into this ‘Ark’, you are sure to have salvation. It is at this juncture, that people will know members of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, whom the people of the world are looking down on. They are indeed the chosen people of God. In view of the impending destruction, be advised to go out and preach the gospel of deliverance to people, but you should not compel people to accept your message. Remind the world of the need to abhor sins.
All those who will listen to the word of God and repent from their sins, must be allowed into – (the Ark of God) Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. When all the righteous assemble together at one place, God can use just a second to destroy the earth. Have you ever witnessed fire outbreak? Can that not give you an idea of what the destruction will look like? Nobody on earth knows the day and the time of His coming. God delays the action because of His mercy. Repent now and abstain from sins. Also, de-emphasise materialism.
The children of God and angles are aware of the approaching time and have prepared for it. Others say there is still ample time. This is analagous to a situation where a master gives a servant the signs that would precede his return from his journey. When you see these signs, will the servant not know that his master is due for return? That is exactly what the end of the world is. Those who have ears are in the know. This explains one of the spiritual choruses that has it that:
¢ You are loosing something – (3 times). Anyone who does not know Olumba
Denies himself something. The angels say, the time is here,
But Satan says, ‘there is still more time,
Anyone who does not know Olumba is losing something¢ .
The wordings of this song underscore another spiritual song that says:
‘Enter inside the boat; the boat conveying good people
Olumba is the builder of the good boat. My brother, enter into the boat¢ .

HOLOCAUST THIS TIME, NOT DELUGE
Do you know that this kingdom is the Ark of Noah? Recall the last Nigerian Civil War. If the Father did not come, no body would have survived the war because people were wallowing in sins. Have you ever seen someone preaches continually for three hundred and sixty-five days (365) of the year? However, the Father is doing that.
Many human being do not believe that the world will soon come to an end, and the time is at hand. The whites, blacks, church Leaders, Bishops are oblivious of this fact. This fact agrees vividly with what the scripture states at 2 Peter 3:8-12
‘But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise. And the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall burn up.
Seeing then, that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness. Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God; wherein, the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?’
The fire will come from heaven. The holocaust is so horrible, that no one will withstand the ugly sight. See also I Corinthians 3: 12 – 15.

‘Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, and stubble; every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it. Because it shall be revealed by fire: and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be save, yet so as by fire’.
The timing is beyond human comprehension.
God will not use conventional weaponry, to be intercepted by world powers, rather there is going to be holocaust that will ravage even the oceans. It is foolishness for all human beings, particularly the whites to feel that their ammunitions will help them. Now that you have known what will happen, why can you not prepare for the rainy day. When Noah preached about the flood, most people disbelieved but it was inevitable. For forty days, the water covered the mountains. The great deluge was not restrictive. Now, all those that will forsake sin, will survive the fire. All the afflictions in our society, kwarshiokor, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and other diseases are just ‘police actions’. However, on that day, more harm shall come in just a second – holocaust.

RESPOND TO THE CALL
It will be too late to accept the baptism of the Holy Spirit on that day. The Father is now asking: who will enter into His boat? Many people show apathy to the call. People believe that nothing will happen. Does it mean that the Bible is lying? I wonder who have taught you otherwise. The contrary view that you have confirmed what the scripture states:

“But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who prividly shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction’. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason for whom the way of truth, shall be evil spoken. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words, make merchandise of you, whose judgement now of a long time, lingers not, and their damnation lingererth not. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgement; and spared not the old world, but saved Noah, the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly”. 2 Peter 2:1-5
The judgement day is fast approaching. What happened during the time of Adam were very simple compare with what will happen on that day. The angels, and even Our Lord Jesus Christ, do not know the time, except the Father. You should forsake sins, and be saved. See Matthew 24: 13-14:

“But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world; for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come”.

As Jonah was ordered to go for God’s work, you are equally enjoined to go to different parts of the world, and preach the word of God openly, to everybody. Do not allow church, tradition and other things to debar you from preaching. The time is quite near and the ‘soldiers’ of God are already vigilant, preparing to send down their ‘missiles’.
However, you can be saved, if you repent from your sinful acts. As such, repentance is a condition for salvation.
This is the new kingdom of God, and the true members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star are saved. There is no village, government, nor church that will be saved, if there is no repentance. Shun vanity and the lust for money. Do not steal; rather you should love one another.

NEW WORLD FROM DEBRIS OF HOLOCAUST:
After the judgement day, there will evolve a new world which will be formed by Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, from the debris after holocaust just like Noah and the seven people after the flood.
In the New Kingdom that will evolve, there will be no war, sickness and famine. The pestilence will be things of the past. Since I have intimated you on the consequence of sin, you should sit upright. Any person who wallows in sins until the last day will have himself or herself to blame. If God, Christ and his angels were not here, how would people be informed about the day?
You should know that, having been gathered into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, you are no more of the world, but of heaven. You will refrain from your sins only when it occurs to you that, it was angels that brought you to this kingdom. The ‘boat’ is not filled, so more people are needed. As such, anyone who is not in the boat is doomed.
God, in his infinite mercy, patience and love, does not want us to perish. He wants us to repent. Those who will heed His advice and are patient to the end will enjoy everlasting life. The recalcitrant sinners will perish.
This is the New Kingdom of God. For this reason, you should shun stealing, lying, and diabolical practices among other unwholesome acts. You should live in peace and unity with one another. Peaceful co-existence is a panacea for a better life.

May God bless His Holy words, Amen

Thank You Good Father.
