ARE YOU READY FOR THE KINGDOM?
Beloved, the New Kingdom of God, which you had heard of and prayed for, is here with man. We are told that, the Kingdom of God is neither food nor drink but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. So beloved, always bear in mind that, the Kingdom is embedded in love, peace, joy, goodness, humility and the rest of the virtues of God. The Kingdom of God stands for oneness and togetherness. This explains the answer given when the Pharisees asked Christ when the Kingdom of God was coming. And He replied that the Kingdom of God will not come with signs to be observed, nor will they say, it is here or there, for behold, the Kingdom of God is in the midst of man.

The Kingdom of God does not constitute eating, dancing and merry making; rather it constitutes joy, holiness, silence, peace and truthfulness. The Kingdom of God does not constitute the construction of express roads neither does it constitutes the purchasing of ostentatious cars. Moreover, the Kingdom of God does not constitute the craftiness, immorality, deceitfulness and other vices, which you indulge in. The Kingdom of God does not tolerate illness and plights. Therefore, healing of the sick and giving people vision about how they are being possessed, and removing charms from people are not the main concern of the Kingdom of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ in one of His statements said that, not all those who call Him Lord, Lord would enter the Kingdom of God but those who do the will of His Father in heaven. He further stressed that, on the judgement day, many will say to Him, “Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in the name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you, depart from Me, you that work iniquity”. St. Matthew 7: 22-23.
It is not the Holy Oil that constitutes the Kingdom of God; neither is it demonstrated in being able to bath very clean; rather, the fear of God among other virtues, makes for the Kingdom of God. You must have heard the national chairman of the Crusade Fellowship saying that, no one is worthy of this Kingdom because of our arrogance and pride, but that everyone is called into the Kingdom out of mercy.

I feel that the sentence, THE LORD IS IN HIS HOLY TEMPLE, LET ALL THE EARTH KEEP SILENCE BEFORE HIM is a good reminder for anyone who comes in here, to shun discussion, arrogance, pride, noise-making, and violence, and embrace peace, silence, humility and decorum. Necklace, finger and earrings, bangles, medicated creams, and shoes are not needed in the Kingdom. Nothing defiled is acceptable in the Kingdom. Hairdressing, using of dressing cap, and wearing of gorgeous dress, is not required here in the Kingdom. But everyone is expected to be in peace, silence, and humility and generally be fearful of the Lord.

The Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and the angels are here in the Kingdom. Moreover, all the prophets of old are present here in the Kingdom. If God were to open your eyes so that you may see all those present in the Kingdom, you would have sympathized with yourselves for the unwholesome things, which you indulge in. If you should be opportuned to see one angel, you would then realize that, none of them lifts up his face due to the extent to which they reverence, respect and fear the Father. The angels are always lying low, conscious of the fact that, this is the fullness of time for God to be glorified by all and sundry and not a time for arrogance and violence. The Kingdom of God is holy and undefiled. For this reason, a carnally minded person is not suitable for this Kingdom; such people should steer clear. Beggars are not needed in the Kingdom. So beggars, take note. All that is needed in the Kingdom is righteousness, peace, joy and the fear of God. For you to inherit the said Kingdom, it is imperative that you shun violence and pride and embrace peace and humility; this is the Kingdom which is very tough to inherit.

No material thing is needed here. Our Lord’s Prayer states, ‘Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven’. God wants obedience and absolute humility. This must be done for the glory of God. We do not come here to worship any thing but the Almighty God who created heaven and earth and the things therein. We are enjoined that, the Lord is Spirit, and that, where the spirit of God dwells, freedom abounds there. This freedom calls for everyone to worship, reverence and honor God as due. God alone is worthy to be worshipped, reverenced, feared, honoured and glorified. Therefore, it is incumbent on everyone to worship, fear and glorify God as due, everywhere and every time.

The Kingdom of God is not the streets, roads, houses and the like that exist, rather man is the Kingdom of God. That is why you must humble yourself, have mercy, peace, goodness and all other virtues and avoid being defiled. The Kingdom of God needs love and righteousness. That is why you should be righteous. God requires love and respect. Therefore, you must always love, respect and fear God in your mind, thoughts and deeds; for by so doing, you have glorified Him.
Everything in the entire world and in heaven belongs to God. All that you need to do in order to please Him is for you to glorify, fear and worship Him. We should also be truthful to one another in order to please God. Shunning of segregation pleases God much. So beloved, you need to abide by it.

The Kingdom of the world does not constitute of distinguished members of the society, the gorgeous and the ostentatious things of this world. The Kingdom of God requires none of these things. Recall, when the disciples of Our Lord Jesus Christ were indulging in fighting and struggling for higher positions among themselves, Our Lord Jesus Christ showed to them a little child and enjoined them that, they could only inherit the Kingdom of God should they be like the little child. If you had heard the Sabbath Children answering the questions posed to them, during the quiz competition, you would have been astonished. I do not think you can answer any of the questions, which these children answered. One of the questions asked is, ‘who is the greatest in this Kingdom? What would you give as an answer, if the question were posed to you?

In St. Matthew 11: 11. Our Lord Jesus Christ said:
“Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist, notwithstanding he that is least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than he:”
What was said about Jesus the Christ? He healed the sick, was preaching ceaselessly, was good, kind, charitable to all and sundry with all amount of humility. In fact, He humbled Himself till death. And as a result of the humility, He possessed was given a name that surpasses all names. Always try to abide by the injunctions of the Holy Spirit. Try and acquire every gospel from the Everlasting Gospel Center and abide by them, because if you fail to do these things, you would regret at last. Make sure you impart to others what you derive from practicing the gospel of God, to avoid regrets at the end. Being a president, chairman, treasurer or occupying any other position in the world does not mean anything; the only profitable thing is for one to be humble. Rejoice not for donating a fat sum of money to the services of God, for this is not worth anything, for God is the Sole Owner of all things. Instead, rejoice for having worshipped glorified and feared God. For these are the things needed in this Kingdom. The spirit of violence and arrogance which you possess are from Lucifer because, violence, war, fighting, pride etc., are earthly. The spirit of controversy in you is the spirit of Lucifer. In fact, it is the spirit of Lucifer that is ruling over humanity. That is why the world lives in violence. Houses of Assembly, senate, Presidency and the entire world are at loggerheads with themselves as a result of the spirit of Lucifer prevalent. But unfortunately, people keep on blaming God for designing certain things the way they are. The entire world has so valued and preferred the things of this world to the extent that, most people always become annoyed and bothered for not being rich or blessed with certain things. Oblivious of the fact that, these things are vanity. Psalm 24: 1-5 states:
“The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein for he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart, who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitful. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation”.

When you hear that Jesus Christ cursed some people at the temple and chased them away, you should not misconstrue the temple to mean the created structure, for the temple in this case, refers to people’s heart. Our Lord Jesus Christ having seen that the Jews had a great lust for the things of the world decided to flush such lust out from the people. So beloved, always come here with a pure heart, to avoid being beaten, as Jesus did to the Jews. We have been told that the worldly people always think of the carnal things and that, being carnally minded is dead while being spiritually minded, is life and peace. There is no worldly person who has peace and hope for the Kingdom of God because their hearts are filled with carnal thoughts and desires. We are taught that, the eyes of the Lord are always on the righteous. This is to prove to you that God needs nothing carnal but heavenly things that are righteous. The carnally minded human beings would never bow down to God till eternity and cannot please Him because they are at all times waging war against God. Now that you request things forcefully from the Father, does it mean that the Father is your mate? Those who claim that God is not in existence are the carnally minded people because their thoughts can never allow them to think anything good. On the other hand, a spiritually minded person would always be glorifying, fearing and respecting God because his thoughts always reflect the heavenly things.

This Kingdom is the one dreamt about by King Nebuchadnezzar and interpreted by Daniel, the Prophet. Most Britons in the olden days were seeking where God was worshipped without carnal desires and thoughts to the extent that, they bought a piece of land in West Indies and dwelt there. Americans on the other hand, has become the land of Satan where violence, vices and sins dwell. Lucifer has conquered America and is ruling over it.

THE VIRTOUS KINGDOM
It is only humility that is needed in the Kingdom of God That is the reason why you are enjoined to humble yourself so that God may exalt you. Here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, we do not worship any other thing, but God; God has come by Himself into the world. That is the reason why humility, the celestial attribute should be possessed by those who so wish to be enlisted into the Kingdom. God dwells in us, and does not need anything defiled. As a result it is incumbent on every member of this Kingdom to purge himself of anything that defiles the body. Having been defiled, God is bound to leave you empty, because He does not dwell in defiled places. One of our Publications, THE FIRST STEP TO GOD stresses the need for us to stop beating of drums, burning of candles and incense, and clapping of hands. These things do not glorify God, hence we are told to do away with them. Your duty on earth is to glorify, honor and fear God. It is imperative that you shun violence and segregation and embrace love for one another. The Bible has told us that, anyone who wishes to be friendly with the world, is God’s foe, and the moment you are friendly with God, you have automatically become an enemy of the world. The Americans are friendly with the world by trying to invent things extraordinary, and as such they are God’s foe and have failed. If out of your desire for one to come into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, you advise a person to put on his shoes and come into the hall, you have failed, because you are friendly with the world, but an enemy to God. So beloved, do not be deceived by anybody, because we are those that worship God both in spirit and in truth. Read the first lesson again:

FIRST LESSON: REVELATION 11: 15
“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”.

BROTHERHOOD, THE KINGDOM OF GOD
Where is the Kingdom referred to as the Kingdom of God and His Christ? It is Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In the past years, you were indulging in various sins like falsehood, immoralities, drunkenness and the like, but today, the reverse is the case, because you have been changed completely by the Father. Those who indulge in sins ceaselessly are of the world and are in the Kingdom of the world. But having been called into this Kingdom, you are exposed to the Divine Teachings of God, and being baptized with water, you have been changed completely. By this time, you are suitable to be addressed as a child of God in the New Kingdom of God and His Christ. All the things written in the Holy Bible are exclusively about man, and not any other creature. The most important aspect of it, is how and why man should be changed from his sinful state to the way of rectitude. A man can only be changed if he possesses all the virtues of God, which in fact informs the reason why the Father always enjoins us to possess love, peace and other virtues.

The people of the past generations were very adamant to the words of God and could not hearken to the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Sequel to the fact that He found people not regarding His teachings, He said:
“I have yet may things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now, Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will shew you things to come. St. John 16: 12-13.

The said Holy Spirit of truth is now in your midst. We are told that, knowledge makes one to be proud and pompous, but love leads man unto righteousness. For instance, it was as a result of the knowledge, which our first parents professed to have possessed that they became proud and ate of the forbidden fruit. Unfortunately, it was after they had eaten of the said forbidden fruit that their problems and hardship emanated. The lifestyles exhibited by the people of the world are counterfeit for they are carnally minded. This explains why confusion and untold hardship manipulate the world, as there is no love, peace, fear and respect for God. As a result of this, the people of the world claim that, Brotherhood of the Cross and Star members are fearing and worshipping man, instead of joining them to enjoy life.

When the foundation of the world was yet to be made Brotherhood of the Cross and Star was in existence. All the material things like clothing, shoes, cars, houses etc, are newly introduced into the world just as stealing, falsehood, immoralities and the like, are also newly introduced into the world. But today, people are complaining that, restrictions are too many in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. However, the truth is that, whoever is not destined to be here, cannot be here, as said by Our Lord Jesus Christ in St. Matthew 15: 13. “But he answered and said, every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up” Sequel to the above text, every body should know that the Father is here on earth, just for the purpose of uprooting the counterfeit life style which the people of the world are indulging in.

Some time ago, the inhabitants in different parts of the world were using different commodities as money, until recently when people started having their own currency. The entire inhabitants of the world are carnally minded; they always long to acquire one material thing or the other. There is nobody in the world that is truthful. Do not think that the Father’s assignment here on earth is to pray for you to acquire the material things of this world. The Father is here to aid you change from your sinful ways to the way of rectitude.

The world had since perished; for that reason, the Father found it imperative to come to the world personally in order to change man from sinfulness to righteousness. If you listen to the testimony that one Brother always render, you would have known that the entire world is empty. If Brother Amadi who has a doctorate degree in religion and philosophy, and lives in the United Kingdom for years, should proclaim that, all the Universities are empty and without knowledge, one should then realize that, the whole world is empty and without knowledge. This is to show you that, God uses the little or relegated things to disgrace the big or exalted things. The knowledge of the world is not required here in the Kingdom. God is not a white, therefore the English language you boast of speaking very well, is insignificant. For this reason I always tell you to compose every song in your local dialect. Humility is not learnt but it is inert but pride and arrogance are learnt and practiced. So, know from here that, humility is godly and heavenly, while pride and arrogance are earthly, carnally and counterfeit.

Mankind was given every plant with seed for food, but today, you are eating falsehood, immoralities and drunkenness. Would you say that the things you eat are the food you were meant to eat? Our Father, Abraham engaged in cattle rearing and farming. The trade by barter system of exchange of the past is still in vogue in the world. That is the reason why you see one country exporting what it has in abundance to other countries who are in need of such goods and commodities, and in return, imports what she does not have. This is of no use at all. If people were to emulate our Father, Abraham, there would have been much food for all. And there would not have been any problem in the world. The fact that mankind has refused to eat the food (fruit) which he was meant to eat the different diseases and illnesses will continue to plague them. But, whoever eats the correct food as prescribed by God cannot become aged and cannot complain of any stomach ache, for the fruit you eat is the flesh of Our Lord Jesus Christ. But so long as you have failed to abide by the injunctions of God regarding the food you eat, Genesis 1:29 you will continue to have various problems.

SHUN MATERIALISM
The material things of this world are enslaving most people, yet they are still vowing not to bow down for anything made by man. Have you now seen the extent to which the people of the world are stupid? God deserted Adam and Eve due to fornication (defiling God’s dwelling place). So beloved, for God to dwell in you forever, you need to keep yourself holy. It is immorality that killed our first parents, Adam and Eve. If you care to be saved, you need to shun immoralities; for a child who walks circumspectly would kill what killed his father, but a child who does not walk circumspectly would be killed by what killed his father. Immorality is so dreadful a sin that, Christ commented on it thus:
And Jesus answering said unto them, the children of this world marry, and are given in marriage. But they, which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. Neither can they die any more. For they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. St. Luke 20: 34-36

You would know that there are three categories of eunuchs as recorded in St. Matthew 19: 12.
“For they are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mothers womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men; and there are eunuchs, which have made them self eunuchs for the Kingdoms of heaven’s sake, he that is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
Eve was married to Adam and they begot children but at a later time, Adam decided not to be intimate with Eve any longer. He decided to remain undefiled a eunuch from that time. With that attempt, God helped Adam to get rid of the lust of a woman, and from that time till the period of 930 years which he (Adam) lived on earth, he interacted as a brother with his wife, Eve. The people of the world however, have rejected this good example. They can do anything to be intimate with women from their date of birth to the date of death. And the women too are not left out of this unwholesome act. Note that the main aim of keeping a woman and man as the case may be is to procreate. But today, men and women have changed this course to something else; this is the source of their problems. Immorality gives birth to cases of abortion in the world. This unhealthy phenomenon has claimed lives of some promising youths in both advanced countries and the developing ones. But the question is, why do man indulge in immoralities? Let it be known that, immorality cannot avail you anything, instead, it kills. Immorality demarcates man from God, because God had earlier enjoined us that, we should be holy, else, He would not dwell in us but that, He would desert us. Presently, God is waging a war against sins and this is the Armageddon war, which you had been hearing about. The aim of this war is to eradicate sins and evils from His dwelling place. Once God succeeds in this war, man will then be fit for God to dwell in.
But for God, no other person can change a fellow man. Healing the sick is an easy task but the ultimate work one can boast of, is to change mankind from sinfulness to righteousness. That is the reason why I always bring to your notice that the government wages war against indiscipline, while Brotherhood of the Cross and Star wages war against sins. This Kingdom of God is holy and should be kept holy. That is why it is incumbent on every member of this fold to abide by the injunctions of the Father and purge himself from sins and embrace every virtue of God. The Father has conquered Satan in the Armageddon war. Hitherto, Satan ruled you, but now the Father has come, conquered Satan and has drawn His people to Himself. Having been brought into this Kingdom, you have to do away with sins as best you could.

THE PARADISE LOST, REGAINED
After creation, man and animals co-existed in harmony. There was no issue of one killing the other for meat or in self-defense. But as time went on, man started treating the other creatures ruthlessly. Consequently, the hostility spread to all the other Kingdom like the fish, birds, reptiles etc. the animals on their part, in self defense started killing man at sight. The original order of life as designed by God was about peaceful co-existence in love and oneness. This was however destroyed by man due to his lust and wickedness. Now, I have peace and oneness to the world. Before now, mankind had completely deviated from the rule of love and created artificial code of life based on segregation, differences and wickedness. You now allocate names and titles to yourselves, as a mark of superiority over another. Have you not witnessed the gradual fall of the kingdom of the world and also the rapid growth of the kingdom of God? The entire system of the world is in shambles and confusion.
What prevails now on earth is love. The love of one another is the law in force now. No sinner is granted entry into this Kingdom because it is exclusively for the righteous. The beneficiaries of the kingdom have been granted profound peace and joy in the whole of their lives. All the children of God have every cause to eschew sins and live in love and righteousness. This is the time of joy for all the children of God. Where in this world can you see a group of people say, up to five hundred in number in a particular gathering without rancor and violence even with the presence of law enforcement agents? But here in this Kingdom, no matter the number of people and the size of the gathering, we are always in unison, love and peace, devoid of any form of violence. In spite of this, we do not employ the services of law agencies to protect both property and people.
Where in the whole world apart from Brotherhood, the Kingdom of God, can you see both the rich and the poor eat together and drink from the same cup? Here, you have professors, Royal Highnesses, Commissioners, Lawyers, Doctors, Artisans etc, share everything in common. We do not segregate nor discriminate at all. In short, as the whole world is gradually being united in peace, love and righteousness, segregation, stealing, murder, gossip, blasphemy etc, are replaced by virtues of God. In other words, in the nearest future vice shall be completely eradicated and replaced by virtues of God. Have you not experienced a remarkable change in your life in Brotherhood? This is exclusively the working of the Holy Spirit. Read the second Bible lesson once again:

SECOND LESSON: HEBREWS 12: 28
“Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear”.

CHRIST: THE EPITOME OF HUMILITY
Brethren, have you now realized the reason why you should serve God wholeheartedly? You should at all times avoid living a sinful life and embrace righteousness for the sake of gaining this Kingdom. In the past, you were ignorant of this knowledge hence Christ said that, all those who came before Him were thieves and robbers. St. John 10: 8. Of all the prophets of old and those that came in the name of the Lord, Our Lord Jesus Christ was the only begotten of God. Those who were before Him neither know God nor imbibed His Divine words. They were all projecting their personal glory. If you should recall, you would realize that, of all the people that were baptized by John, it was only Our Lord Jesus Christ who got the Holy Spirit. At the completion of the baptism, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him and was declared the beloved Son of God. St. Matthew 3: 17 He is the only one who baptizes man with the Holy Spirit and with the spoken words. The people of the world could not understand Him because of the state of their sinfulness. Christ was the epitome of humility. He demonstrated absolute humility to the people in all He did. Throughout His 33 years on earth, lived a complete righteous life devoid of blemish. Therefore, as a follower of Christ, it is not performing His word that is important but it is for you to emulate His lifestyle to the letter. You should copy His meekness, humility, self control, kindness and selfless service to humanity. He did not quarrel with any man. All His services were rendered free. He treated everybody equally. He did not impute sin to any man rather, His main concern centered on the welfare and salvation for all. Throughout His ministry, He was not heard in the streets.

Your life as a member of Brotherhood should project you as a light in any community you find yourself. You should not do anything that is capable of dragging the name of God in the mud. When you fornicate, kill, steal, hate, fight, quarrel, discriminate or sow the seed of discord, you have soiled the name of God. There is nothing else that God expects from you apart from holiness. You cannot build a house for Him, for He does not live in a house built by man, after all, heaven and earth belong to Him. Everything under the sun belongs to God. It is left for you to subject yourself to the dictate of the Holy Spirit so that He can take over your whole life. You are the house of God; God has no other dwelling place. So, if you give up yourself to the dictate of the evil spirit due to your sinfulness, you have yourself to blame for rendering your Creator homeless. You should purge yourself of any trace of evil. Whenever you say, ‘LET’, the devil will surely depart from you.

Forward ever and backward never as all hands must be on deck towards the glory of God. Once God makes His abode in you, you have overcome the world and things would take a new turn in your life. Under such condition, you would be thinking about the salvation of others and your life would be centered on God. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the Kingdom of God on earth long expected.
The people of the world rejoice and boast of their horses and chariots, but we in this Kingdom are joyous and boastful in the sense that we are saved. Our joy is in Our Lord Jesus Christ that was nailed to the cross for the salvation of man. We are not interested in the material things of this world but in the Kingdom of God. Our goal is in righteousness, peace, and everlasting joy. Everlasting life is also our goal. It is quite true that a seed of maize cannot yield fruits except it is sown and finally germinates. When it grows, it yields plenty of fruits. Have you not seen that Christ has yielded many fruits today? He is now heard and worshipped all over the world. His name has spread to wherever man is found. None can deny the existence of God today. With the presence of God, His children are at liberty to spread the good tidings of their Father’s Kingdom throughout the world. Satan has therefore buried himself in shame. Satan has nothing to do with the creation of man nor can he provide life. Therefore, why should Satan mislead man? You should realize that the most powerful weapon that Satan dreads is the word of God. Whenever you preach the word, Satan is bound to take to his heels. There is much joy in this Kingdom among the children of God. There is a very big gulf between the children of Brotherhood and the world. Here in the Kingdom, we do not drink, fornicate, loot, defraud, gossip, nor live according to the prompting of the flesh. We do not practice what is preached and regarded by the world. We live in unity, oneness and love because of the existence of God in our midst.

THE DWELLING PLACE OF GOD
In times past, God did not have a place to lay His head. He had no house just as it is written:
“And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of man hath no where to lay his head. St. Matthew 8: 20”.

Our Lord Jesus Christ lacked a place to lay His head because man had defiled himself, thereby ejecting God from His house. But today, the situation is different. The dwelling place of God is now with men and it ever remains unshakable. Many people who have now come to the realization of this fact have abandoned the world and baptized into Brotherhood. That is the reason why the people of the world keep on wondering what the Father has given to you to keep you in the Kingdom. They are surprised to see the influx of people into the Kingdom. Some of the men from the world who mistakenly think that they could use their wealth to entice some sisters in the fold for marriage are easily rebuffed whenever they approach them. Being so surprised at this, they become confused. For this reason, they are greatly confused and believed strongly that, there is something secret in this Kingdom. The only secret that is still hidden to them is absolute righteousness. The real meaning of the term, ‘the new lease of life’, as used in this Kingdom is quite different from what is understood by the world. It is because of this ignorance that the children of Brotherhood often express their sympathy to the people of the world. The people are merely awaiting the impending doom that would befall them.

I have completely changed you (members of Brotherhood) from all manners of sin. You are now counted worthy in the sight of God. You are now living a life devoid of vice. It is therefore your duty to teach the people of the world what I have taught you so that, they too might be partakers of the glory of this Kingdom.
He, who is in you, has taken complete dominion over your entire life. You can no more experience poverty, sorrow, weeping, gnashing of teeth and lamentation. Also, you need not be guided by anyone because the Supernatural Teacher is in you. He is the one who teaches and directs you in all matters. Everything under the sun has been brought under total subjection. Be rest assured that joy, peace, prosperity and every good thing has been restored to you. The reign of Christ is for eternity, for there will be no other Kingdom apart from Brotherhood of the Cross and Star forever.
The promise of God is now fulfilled in this generation. He has written down His laws in our hearts and has forgiven our sins. You have been intimated of everything about the Kingdom. Therefore, you should not be in doubt of anything at all. Have you seen that the Lord is merciful to your un-righteousness? This was the covenant made to us several generations ago. Read Hebrews 8: 10-12. In appreciation, you have to reverence God and give Him His due glory. So beloved, since God has taken dominion of your entire body, you should refrain completely from all manners of sinfulness, so that He will continue to abide in you. He is the sole provider of everything you need. You have been advised:

“Follow peace with all men and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord” Hebrews 12: 14.

God is immortal and all that follow Him are equally immortal. Any man who wants to see the glory of God should refrain from all manners of sin and be baptized in to the Kingdom in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. If you do this, you will surely see the glory of God. You have been charged to go from house to house office to office, market to market, throughout the world to preach the gospel. Wherever you go to, your presence alone is enough to scare away every diabolical thing. In the real sense, it is not the wish of the people to commit sins. Many are compelled into sinful acts as a result of the spirit in them and above all, put a deaf ear to the sound teaching. Therefore, it is your charge as soldiers of God to meet the people face to face and impart to them the sound and recondite teachings of the Holy Spirit. They should receive the word of God and accept baptism. By so doing, they will surely gain salvation. If they accept this, the Holy Spirit will be infused into the bottom of their hearts. Read our golden text once again:

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 21: 27
“And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie; but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life”.

WE ARE CHOSEN
It is said, many are called but few are chosen St. Matthew 20: 16. If you decide to give yourself any name or you continue to flirt from one church denomination to the other, without practicing the laid down principles as observed in this Kingdom, you are merely groping in the dark. You have read from our golden text that, there shall in no wise enter into it, anything that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie but they which are written in the lamb’s book of life. One is not considered worthy in the sight of God on the basis of bodily beauty, the amount of wealth possessed, but the level of righteousness attained. In order to be counted worthy, you must refrain from vices, you must love your fellow man, love God, show reverence to Him and glorify His holy name. If you have any bit of sin in you, you are not qualified for this Kingdom.

None has ever come into this Kingdom and led by the Holy Spirit without testifying about the presence of God. As soon as you come in here, even before you slip into the ‘Beautiful Gate’, the first thing that strikes you is the presence of God. As soon as you surrender yourself to Him, your problems will be completely taken away. Brotherhood has nothing to do with sinners. For you to be qualified for this Kingdom, you have to be free from sin. In this Kingdom, we do not marry nor are given in marriage. But, whoever had married before now should remain as though he is single. What we are after is brotherly love. Disassociate yourself completely from the lust for materialism in order to be able to serve your Creator wholeheartedly.

Brethren, a stroke of a cane is enough for the wise, may God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER.

EVERLASTING GOSPEL 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

“A KINGDOM WITHIN MAN”

FIRST LESSON: ST. LUKE 17: 20-21
“And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the Kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, the Kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! For, behold, the Kingdom of God is within you”.

SECOND LESSON: ST. MATTHEW 6: 19-21
“Lay not up for yourselves treasurers upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasurers in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt. And where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also”.

GOLDEN TEXT: ST. LUKE 20: 35-36
“But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. Neither can they die any more; for they are equal unto the angels; and are children of God, being the children of the resurrection”.
THE CHILDREN OF GOD HAVE ARRIVED
Beloved, you should read that pamphlet titled, “MY MISSION” and you will realize that I have already established the Kingdom. What is left is for you to preach about these good tidings of great joy. Christ spoke about the coming of the Kingdom. That Kingdom is here now. Have you not seen the Kingdom? Are the children of God not here? My mission is to teach, exhort and establish the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom has been revealed unto everybody. Can you deny knowledge of this? You were told about the coming of the Holy Spirit. Has He not arrived?
Do not go out and preach Olumba but preach about the Father and the Kingdom of God and any one who is in doubt should come and see things for himself. Remember the brother from Germany who donated a bus to the Father. Some years ago, I advised you to tighten your belts and guide your possessions in this Kingdom jealously, today have you not seen what is happening? You used to struggle to offer prayers here but now, do you still have chance to pray here? You claim to be a pastor and so you are the right person to pray how dare you lay claim to such position? When you claim to be a chief security officer what can you secure?
The Father is the only teacher, the instructor, the guard and everything you can think of. The Kingdom of God is like the mustard seed, when planted, it germinates and grows into a very big tree and brings forth fruits and the birds of the air go there in their numbers to feed and build their nests on its branches. Have you not seen the manifestation of the parable here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star? When you claim to be preaching, what are you preaching when you continue to steal and lead a life of sin daily? This is the Kingdom, which was expected long ago. Tell the world that the Father finally establishes that Kingdom.
Christ charged you to go and tell them that the Kingdom is at hand. But I command you to tell them that the Kingdom is here. Tell the people to come and see the oneness in the Kingdom as practiced by God’s children at 26 Mbukpa Road, Calabar, Nigeria. The disciples asked Our Lord Jesus Christ when the Kingdom would come. He told them that the Kingdom will not come with signs so that man may behold it here or there, but it is within you. We have seen the manifestation of the Kingdom in this generation. Even the whites have seen it or how could that brother from Germany send a bus to us? The Indians, the Russians, the Americans and indeed every nation is aware of the manifestation of the Kingdom of God, and if you claim ignorant of this then you must be joking.

There is no more time for jokes. Cars, ships, planes and other means of transportation will soon be sent in their numbers. This is the time of joy. There is joy in heaven, and in all planes of manifest. The children of God have arrived. Their pews will soon be fully occupied by children of God from all races. Whatever your assignment, pursue that vigorously but realize that children of God have arrived and it is their duty to pray always. No other person is authorized to pray here for God does not hear the prayer of a sinner. These children are those to pray and break loose the chains of evil because they are the mouthpiece of God. All you now need to do is to store your treasure here as those brethren from Germany have done.

The time for you to behave irrationally is gone. The Kingdom of God is now manifested here on earth. You do not need to gaze into the sky any more. God is here on earth with us. You have to move from house to house and spread this good news. The money you used to spend on women of easy virtue and other irrelevant things should now be channeled into the service of God. We have got a New World that cannot be corrupt and when you commit yourself to the up-keep of these children, your salvation is guaranteed. Irrespective of your status and position, you must be concerned about the welfare of the children of God. We are all part and parcel of this Kingdom. Let your mind, your love, and all you are be in this Kingdom because we are all saved.
Be informed that the dwelling place of God is now with men and God shall be our Father and we shall be His people. God does not deceive and He cannot be deceived, even till eternity. That is the promise of God and that is why Christ taught us to pray and say ‘Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven…’ The long expected Kingdom has come as requested. Therefore you have to rejoice about this and lead a good and righteous life, forsaking all manners of unruly behaviors. All the things Christ testified about are now fulfilled. Therefore our joy is made full. Read the first lesson:

FIRST LESSON: ST. LUKE 17: 20-21
“And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the Kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said the kingdom cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or Lo, there! For, behold the Kingdom of God is within you”.

WE ARE ONE
All the while, the world was waiting to see the children of God. Right from the time of Adam, man has been waiting to see the prophecies of the Kingdom coming to manifestation, that the dwelling of God will be with men and God their Father and man, the people of God. This has been revealed thousands of years ago. Men have waited anxiously for this to happen but in vain. But almost when all hopes were lost the redeemer appeared. It is stated that none will perish except the child of perdition, and there is no child of perdition in your midst, everyone is in his position. Isaiah and all others are in their position and the Son of God is in His position. Therefore, do not be worried over anything, because God has come to keep each of us in our respective positions. Wherever the mother-goad is accommodated will also accommodate the little one. If we rejoice in the children of God and accept them with one mind, then we are equally qualified as the children of God. If we deposit our wealth in this Kingdom, then our hearts will be here for we all are here as one.
Discard the idea of giving out your money in pursuit of mundane and frivolous things, rather, concentrate in the service of God. Since we have been opportune to have the Kingdom as ours, you should live a life that is in keeping with the teachings of the Holy Spirit. This is an everlasting insurance scheme and once you insure yourself and property in it, they you are saved. The children of God are now found everywhere and once you rejoice with them and commit yourself to the service of God, they you will not have problems. Let all your hope and faith be in God, love these children, and you will be saved.
When the two angels sent to destroy the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah went into the house of Abraham, as he entertained them, they told him about their mission. Abraham told them that his cousin, Lot lived there and then asked if they, the (angels) saw about a hundred righteous men whether they would destroy the cities. The angels said no. Abraham reduced the number to five and the angels accepted to save the cities even with that low number. Unfortunately, they could not find any righteous person that was why the cities were destroyed. But today, the reverse is the case because the children of God are here in numbers and so, the Kingdom of the world have become the Kingdom of Jehovah God and His Christ. Thus, our joy is full.
Do not lament because you are not a virgin, but you are a brother or sister of God. However, because of your faith in this Kingdom, and the joy that you express in these children the whole world is saved. There is only one Shepherd and the flock is equally one. Read the second lesson again.

SECOND LESSON: ST. MATTHEW 6: 19-21
“Lay not up for yourselves treasurers upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal; But lay up for yourselves treasurers in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also”.

THE SPIRITUAL INSURANCE
The above constitutes a wonderful advice. The entire humanity is invited to come and receive this gospel of salvation. Do not continue in your unruly ways of life. Let all your treasure be deposited here in this Kingdom of God, for nothing can break into and steal neither could moth consume. Whoever deposits his wealth here is equally saved. Any faith without work dies a natural death. Abraham was saved through righteousness, which was occasioned by faith. Therefore, every person is saved through the faith he has in this Kingdom.

Everyone must contribute to the upkeep of these children of God every first Sunday of the month. This is incumbent on all inhabitants of this world. The brethren from overseas donated one hundred thousand naira (N100, 000.00) and a bus Bro. Ime Akpakpan donated a car and different people have donated different things and because of this we received salvation, for it is stated that it will be through the child that the parents get salvation. Do not lament over the fact that you are not a virgin. Forsake sins, stop telling lies, do not steal again, or commit fornication, love one another, rejoice in these children of God and have the fear of God in you, then you will be saved. Any other thing you may do will be of little benefit but when you keep your treasure in this Kingdom, the benefit is immeasurable.
The Kingdom of God has been revealed unto you, the Kingdom is the children of God. Once you think of doing any good thing to these children, you will have eternal peace. You will be promoted your family and community will be saved. One brother has decided to build a house for these children at Biakpan and before these children left here to Biakpan on pilgrimage, the Biakpan community decided that no Biakpan indigent should go to anywhere but should stay at home to receive them. This was to fulfill the nomination that as many as receive Him gives He the right to be the children and see to their upkeep. Your salvation is guaranteed but if you fail, claiming to have established a church, or have entertained strangers, have fasted and prayed, healed or give vision then you have not started.
Rejoice with the children of God and tell the world that the Kingdom, which Christ talked about, has finally arrived. With their mere passing through any place, peace will ensue and in no distant time you will see what Calabar will become. No date has been fixed but it must come to pass. This is the time to support the children of God and by doing this, your ways are perfected. Your farms bring good yields, your businesses flourish, you have promotion in your working places and finally you receive eternal salvation and nobody oppresses you anymore.

DO AWAY WITH SIN
King David wanted to build a house for the worship of God but God told him not to do it because his hands were full of blood. It is not going on ministry work that is the matter, but the main thing is to forsake sins. God does not listen to the prayer of a sinner but whoever practices the injunctions of God, the same has his prayers answered by God and God equally use the prayers of one faithful man to save the whole world. No matter how the inhabitants of the world pray, with their idols in their houses, God does not hear them but the moment one person who walks according to the prompting of the Holy Spirit prays, everything is accomplished. Up till this day, it is Our Lord Jesus Christ who makes intercession for the whole world. God did not hear all other prayers. If you read the book of Revelation chapter five, you will see about the prayers of the Saints and only the prayer of Christ was used to salvage the whole world. And now, you have the one who speaks and his prayers are answered as the Kingdom of this world have become the kingdom of Jehovah God and His Christ.
The world is saved and the joy of the entire humanity is great. We now have hope, faith and love and we are no more condemned. We have only this one Kingdom and all the angels, spirits, all creatures in water, on the earth and waters, beneath the earth are all in it. Do not sow the seed of division; do not say you are from this Bethel or that. Do not claim to belong to one race or another and stop praying for particular places, for this one Kingdom is sufficient unto all of us.
You have heard how all the believers during the era of Our Lord Jesus Christ shared everything in common and till now; we are still in the same Kingdom where we have to share everything in common. For those who do not forsake sins, if you go out and tell somebody that the Kingdom of God has arrived, where is the sign of this Kingdom in you? Where is your faith?

The wise men, when they received the revelation of the birth of Christ, traveled for two years before getting to Bethlehem. And when they arrived, they inquired where the newborn King was, for they had traveled to worship Him. When they finally located Him, they worshipped Him and presented gifts unto Him. They were in this same Kingdom of God. Wherever the children of God visit, everywhere is illumined. At Edo State, they have living quarters. Their activities are quite distinct from that of others. They do not drink the water you drink; they do not eat the food you eat; they do not talk the way you do; they do not dress the way we do because they are quite a distinct set of people. The song they sing, you are witnesses to the difference; even the way they walk. When they shall start to go out you will see what will happen at any place they will land. Just one anthem they render will redeem everybody and all fetish things are completely wiped out. This is what they have come to do. This happening was prophesied long ago and this is its manifestation. Read the golden text again:

GOLDEN TEXT: ST. LUKE 20: 35-36
“But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage; Neither can they die anymore; for they are equal unto the angels; and are children of God being the children of the resurrection”.

THE ABORIGINES
Those who own this Kingdom were not known but now this has been revealed. It is said locally that it is the food that a sick man loves that he eats even to the grave. And so the fornication you are regarding as your hobby, the stealing, telling of lies and the unseeming ways you used to exhibit will not lead you to any good place in this Kingdom. These children have nothing to do with any sin and they are not under any law. No drinking here, no anger no lies, no stealing, no fornication and adultery, no love of money or material things because they are the children of resurrection and they are the children of God. Because of what they do, they are qualified to inherit this Kingdom. This happens to fulfill the nomination that they that die with Christ will resurrect with Him and when they resurrect with Him, they will live with Him.
The children of God will go to America, Russia, India, among other countries. They will equally enter all parts of the world to perfect things. There is no more division in the whole world.

It is stated that those who would be counted worthy of inheriting this world neither marry nor are given in marriage. They do not have anything to do with idolatry, no business with court actions, planting of farms or engaging in other activities. They do not contest for anything and they have no business with sins. Their duty is to do the work of God. Their songs constitute vision, testimonies, and indeed, everything about them constitutes the words of God. They have nothing to do with carnal tendencies. Therefore, do not go and discuss any material things with them.
Recollect the testimony of sister Ekpo about one brother who was baptized into Brotherhood but later went back and engaged in the carnal things. In the course of this, he lost his wife and problems struck him from every angle. She said when the children of God went to Biakpan and prayed for him, everything became normal and she reconciled with brother Ekpo who incidentally is his elder brother. She said that the brother testified that since the day the children of God visited them at Biakpan, his eyes were opened and that he had done away with all his fetish objects because he had nothing to do with them anymore. This is why I told you that the coming of these children means salvation unto the entire world. There is no place they will not enter; even your house will be visited by them and all the fetish things you used your money to acquire will be swept away and burnt by them.
The Biakpan chiefs, who went to receive them with caps on their head, had those caps thrown away by the children of God. Just as Christ did with the money doublers in the temple of God. They did the same to the Biakpan Chiefs who apologized for not knowing that such is not permitted. The children have no business with any material thing and they do not look at anybody’s face. Therefore let us thank the Father because the work of darkness is over and everywhere is illumined by the radiance of their light.

At Ohafia, one of the Royal Highness told the children of God to appeal to the Father to send them to the Head of State because the type of song they render can change anybody’s mind and with that, the whole world will be in peace. These are words of prophecy though he was not aware that it has already taken place. Anywhere the children of God are, they are before the throne of God. This is why we have every reason to rejoice because in this generation, we have seen the manifestation of the Kingdom of God.

Do not go to them with your fornication spirit, if you have them tempted, as a tempter, be ready to bear the consequence of your temptation. Do not seek to be a child of God, if your name was not there before the foundation of the world was laid.
Nothing unruly is wanted because there must be one flock under the control of one shepherd. But everyone should be contented in his position and honor such a position and repent of his sins. But commit all your wealth into the service of God in this Kingdom. Lead a life commensurate to your calling because there is no more division in the world; no man, no woman and we are all one as children of God.
Stop jumping from post to pillar for such things are not required here in this Kingdom. All the members of this Kingdom must surrender themselves to God. Do not look at the children of God as little children, for they are great spiritually. That is why no visionary, pastor, student or Christ Servant can go near their pew except you allow them to lead you. If you are not in spirit, you can not understand who they are. As you used to behave irrationally, realize that such is not what God wants and the time for that licentiousness is over. It is their duty to teach the pastors, the bishops, the Christ Servants and students and all groups of persons found on earth. They have established the Kingdom and everything about them is one, one common purse, one mind, one tongue and one behavior.

It is said that a stroke of cane is enough for the wise. He who has ears should hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the world. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

“ABSTAIN FROM FORNICATION”

1st Lesson: 1 Corinthians 10: 8
“Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.”

2nd Lesson: 1 Corinthians 6: 18
“Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.”

Golden Text: 1 Corinthians 3: 16-18
“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is Holy, which temple ye are. Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.”
Brethren, that is the theme of our revelation this night. It seems to Me that you have listened attentively to this vision and prophecy. If we had examined ourselves, we would not have been judged by God. But when He judges us, He chastises us so that we may not be condemned with the world. God had never tempted us because man cannot be tempted of God. But every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his lust and enticed. It is said that a child who walks circumspectly will subdue what destroyed his father but a child who walks carelessly will be killed by what had killed his father. You are very much aware of the cause of Adam’s death. It is that same thing which killed Adam and Eve, our first father and mother that is causing great confusion and commotion in the whole world today.

FORNICATION IS DEADLY SIN
Even the children of Israel were subdued and killed by this dreadful sin on their way from Egypt to the Promised Land. You have been told in the Scriptures that a total of 600,000 Israelites of 21 years old and above were delivered and brought out of Egypt excluding women and children, but only two persons finally reached the Promised Land. Why? This sad situation was caused by fornication. You have been told that a total of 23,000 people died in one day because of fornication. They died not because of lies, stealing or any other sin but because of the sin of fornication. All these things happened unto them for example and they are written for our admonition, upon when the ends of the world are come so that we may not indulge in the sin of fornication, and suffer death. If you like pray, but prayer cannot prompt God to change this situation. If Adam and Eve, our first parents were driven away from the Garden of Eden and they subsequently died because of the sin of fornication, what do you think of yourself?

All the difficulties we are experiencing today and through which the world will continue to suffer, are not caused by any other sin but fornication. Luckily for the world, I have come to realize that they do not regard fornication as anything sinful. Even as I am delivering this gospel, most people are conversing; some are sleeping while others are singing. Nobody considers fornication a dreadful sin. Neither women nor men count it sinful to commit fornication. You want God to give you life, money, husband, wife but entirely forgetting about asking God to destroy the instinct of promiscuity and fornication in you completely so that you may live a righteous and pure life unto Him.

THE TABERNACLE OF GOD IS WITH MAN
God has no other house except the human body. The tabernacle of God is with men. God does not dwell in any other thing but man is the home of God. If Adam and Eve did not fornicate, troubles and afflictions would not have come upon the world. As you heard in the morning, God is a spirit and He has come to lead. He has come to teach, and to direct.
He is the Lord of Lords and King of Kings. The pertinent question is where does He dwell? He dwells in the heart of men. Another significant question is can a fornicator dwell with Him, or can the Almighty God dwell in the heart of a fornicator? The answer is No! Anybody, who through the sin of fornication, defiles God’s Temple, him, will God destroy. If you commit fornication, you have disappointed God and that house automatically is useless and stands condemned. This is because fornication amounts to urinating, and passing faeces in God’s temple, and His great hope of dwelling in man is defeated consequently the house has to be condemned and destroyed since it is not fit for habitation. Beloved brethren, if we had known that whatever sin we commit is without the body but when we fornicate we defile the temple of God, we would have forsaken earthly lusts and abstain completely from fornication. The most dreadful dilemma about fornication is that people of all ages, races, creed and religions are involved. If you scan through the entire population of the world right from children to the adult, no one is free from committing fornication.
Men and women of diverse backgrounds, whether a chief, king, president, governor or academician, poor and, or a robber are all neck deep in fornication. Preachers, soothsayers, doctors, traders, women have turn round to practice and patronise it nicely. Some people would stand up and declare how committed they are in the service of the Almighty God, when they are fornicating seriously. And I ask is fornicating synonymous with serving God?

FLEE FORNICATION
Whoever commits fornication has no fellowship with Our Lord Jesus Christ and has got no share in this Kingdom. He does not gather with Our Lord Jesus Christ but scatters abroad. There is no other sin more painful to God than fornication. To God the shame alone is debilitating. It has been revealed to us especially in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star that God does not dwell in man-made buildings, in cars, ships, or in any other thing but He lives inside the human body which is your body. It is, therefore, your onerous duty to keep this house clean in order to make it habitable for the Most High God, its builder.
Even if you fill this room with money, God is totally uninterested. If you line a bevy of girls who are immoral and defiled, take them away for God is not interested in them. If you pack a million or more handsome young men who have defiled themselves and hand them over to God to use in His vineyard, He will not use them because they are useless. But before God, only one person who maintains his purity and sanctity is greater than a million defiled people; God does not want anything from you except that you should flee fornication.

GOD WHO DWELLS IN YOU IS A SPIRIT AND INVISIBLE
Who is the person who keeps himself pure? He is the person who flees fornication. Even as your caller is holy you also must be holy in all your undertakings. It is written you must be holy because I am holy. What God requires of you, is complete abstinence from fornication: God does not require your children, house, position, book knowledge, money and motor car. He wants your body and its purity. It is a mistake and even ignorance for somebody to think of building a house for God.
Never you make such a statement again. It amounts to showing disgrace to the Almighty God. It is equally erroneous for anybody to say he wants to erect a very big cathedral to God because of His kindness to him. It is a big disgrace. Do you not realize that you are God’s temple and that He dwells in your hearts? You had been told in the morning that God is a spirit, and that the wind blows wherever it chooses but nobody knows where it comes from or where it goes. If your body is dissected, that spirit cannot be found but He is dwelling in you. He is invisible. We are His husbandry, the building of God, the city He has built. He walks about in us, and does all His things. It is said that whoever defiles this building, him will God destroy.
Adam and Eve did not commit murder, theft, prepare charms and juju but were indulging in the act of fornication. Then God was annoyed with them. That is why they were driven out of the Garden of Eden by God. All the problems and afflictions besetting the whole world are attributable to the sin of fornication. All the tooth gnashing, death, lack, diseases are due to fornication. The disappointment wrought on God is unbearable. The Comforter Himself has descended, but where is He going to dwell? The first houses, He built as Adam and Eve, where are they? The have been destroyed. It was a very sorrowful situation when God went out one day only to come back and find defiled and dilapidated buildings. That is why He cursed and drove them immediately away from His presence.

MAN IS THE CITY OF GOD, DO NOT KEEP IT UNKEMPT
After sometimes, He came back and offered Himself as a Supreme Sacrifice, using His precious Blood to wash us clean and then instructed man not to fornicate again. On His next advent, He discovers that Adam and Eve have again, in defiance of His instruction, defiled their buildings completely. I implore you to ponder over this issue. If you were the one who comes back to find this situation, how would you feel? Where then do you want Him to dwell? Because He has come to dwell with men, to live inside our bodies, in our hearts, and to move about in our bodies as His husbandry and His City.
If you have defiled this building where do you expect Him to live? You are blaming the situation on apparition, juju, witchcrafts, and man. Stop blaming these non-existent things but ask yourself this pertinent question? Have you not defiled the temple of the Most High God? Do you not demolish the temple of the Most High God? Have you not eaten the forbidden fruits which your first parents, in disobedience to God’s command, ate and died? Did God not openly told Adam that he would die, any day he tastes of that fruit because it is the fruit of the tree of good and evil?
CRUSADERS DO NOT FORNICATE
You publicly profess to be crusaders. Are you a Crusader? Why do you continue to fornicate? You also profess to be a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Yes you are, there is no question about it, but why do you continue to fornicate? You claim to be a real child of God, if you truly are, why do you commit and patronise fornication? Brethren, can you realise the cause of your condemnation?
This is why God has chosen this week and named it “World Wide Crusaders’ Week.” He does not require your money or any other thing of yours but He singularly wants you to shun fornicating. To keep your body undefiled, to maintain your sanctity and purity, and He will return to His house and manifest His glory at will because the human – house belongs to Him.

FORNICATION IS A GREAT WICKEDNESS AGAINST GOD
Do you not remember what happened to Joseph? If Joseph had yielded to the seduction of Potiphar’s wife and had carnal knowledge of her the children of Israel would have perished completely. To indicate to you that the children of God are always born not made, when Joseph was tempted by his master’s wife, he yielded not and asked her “How can I do this great wickedness and sin against God”? Joseph was only a slave but look at a governor’s wife in her exalted position condescending so low to ask Joseph for sexual intimacy. Can you see how satan behaves? But Joseph said, there is nobody who is greater than myself in this house, my master has entrusted everything in the house to me and put them under my care, but as for you, he has not given you to me, you are his wife. I cannot commit this hideous crime. Can you see what has happened? Potiphar has entrusted everything in the house to Joseph. So that you may know that, nothing is as painful to God even to a man as fornication and adultery. Portiphar without even an investigation into the allegation by his wife that Joseph wanted to know her carnally, immediately cast Joseph into prison. This fornication which you are joking with, is the most painful offence a person can commit against God.
Even if you can sing like a nightingale day in day out, if you do not forsake fornication, know it from Me that you have not yet started. You have not shown your preparedness even if you dry fast for a whole year, you do not eat food, drink water or take bath but continue to fornicate, your effort is in vain and indeed a waste of time. Some of you are testifying that you do not eat meat, fish, or drink wine or do any other thing contrary to God’s command, but what about “The king of Crimes” Fornication?

Have you refrained from it? Some people are generous with their wealth, undertake house to house gospel ministry, but what about this sin of fornication? Have you refrained from it? This heinous sin is what has held back the world and has spelt on its inhabitants afflictions, poverty, murder, theft, robbery, bribery, corruption, wretchedness, swindling and lamentations, and none of the above is as painful to God as fornication. As I do not want to overload you let our first lesson be read.
1st Lesson 1 Corinthians 10: 8
“Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.”

FORNICATION IS AN INSTRUMENT OF DEATH:
Have you seen death you fear? You are inviting death unto yourself as long as you continue to fornicate your fear of death not withstanding. You are always overcome with evil because you continue to fornicate.
You pray that God should take away sickness, temptation, penury, and enmity but you are fornicating. Do you not realise that fornication is the cause of sickness, temptation, penury, enmity, death and all your problems? We have a spiritual song, which says “When the Lord is with me, who can fight against me.”? Except the Lord keeps the city, the watchmen watches but in vain. Except the Lord builds the house, they labour in vain who build it. If we do not allow God to live in our hearts and we in Him, what can we do?

THE SPIRIT IS A SILENT GUEST
He is a Spirit. He is invisible but dwells in us. That is why we are advised not to commit fornication. He does not live in any house built by man. He dwells in our hearts. He lives inside our bodies. If a child is able to abstain from fornication, that child is the dwelling place of God. When you pray to God to give you money to enable you go on ministry work or give alms to the poor, I ask you, do you think God does not go on ministry work?
You are aware that when the battle is tough, the king is always the Commander-in Chief of the army, and He says you should give Him chance; you should maintain your sanctity and purity. He sent angels and they could not perform these duties. He sent His prophets they had no ability to undertake these assignments. At last He sent His only begotten Son, and man hard – heartedly crucified Him. Now, who do you want Him to send that you will not kill? Since you want to rob shoulders with God, when angels are sent down, you will send beautiful women with plaited hair and make up to them and the angels will fall. He also sent down His great prophets, and you produced beautiful women, with hairs all over their bodies, with European accents to them and they, unable to resist the temptation, yielded. Dear brethren, whenever you come across a community where a man from above is found, the people would produce beautiful women and the man would fall. When you see such a community run away from it.

Brethren, what has God done unto you? Is this the time that somebody has done to you a good thing, and you pay him back with a bad coin?

REFRAIN FROM FORNICATION
What particular sin has God committed by creating man in His own image and regarding him as His house, vineyard, city and husbandry where-in He may come and live in order to maintain His glory and honour. But you deceive yourself that you are Crusaders, you put on your white robes, you claim to be a Brotherhood, an Elder, Chorister, or Pastor, but fornication has eaten deep into your fabric. You are no more recognised. It has submerged you. Give Me a chance in your heart. Shun fornication completely. Let men and women refrain from fornication. Wait and see, in a very short moment you will see what God will use you to accomplish. Since 1960, I started announcing that I am looking for a virgin, you pay deaf ears and instead start to laugh. I want neither you nor your wealth, but virgins who have not defiled themselves.
Today, God has brought the Crusaders who are the real children of God and children with the fear of God in them, from now on, fornication has been stamped out from among you. Do you always come to God confessing that you have violated the Ten Commandments? Forget about that side. Just forsake fornication. The Father will come in and live in you. Do you remember one of the commandments, which provides remember the Sabbath day to keep it Holy What is the Sabbath? It is your heart. Our Lord Jesus Christ at one occasion asserted ‘I am the Lord of the Sabbath’. If therefore you keep yourself undefiled, He will pass in and dwell therein because His dwelling place is habitable.

BROTHERHOOD DOES NOT FORNICATE
The Father deliberately invited the Crusaders so that the big log in your eyes might be removed. If you profess to be a child of God but you do not refrain from fornication, you are a deceiver. If you claim to be a Brotherhood but you persist in fornication you are a deceiver.
Any person who has resolved to serve God but does not refrain from fornication is a deceitful person. From the moment in time that God elected Paul he had no relationship with any woman throughout his life. That is why he is adjudged the most hard working of all the Apostles. For Our Lord Jesus Christ had declared that “He is a chosen vessel unto Me to bear My name before the gentiles, kings and the children of Israel.” And so Christ dwelt in him and Peter was not able to undertake the type of work he did, nor was any other person able to do it. Because he was not the one who did it by his own ability but Christ who dwelt in him. If, therefore, you refrain from fornication now, He will pass into your body and everything will be well with you. He works in such a way that you are confounded. No person can claim to do anything because he is not capable. Christ is the only worker, the only provision is that you should surrender yourself to Him and fornicate no more, be you a man or woman refrain completely from fornication and let Him pass into His house and you will be bamboozled at what He had done.
MEN AND WOMEN SHOULD LEAVE EACH OTHER ALONE
He does not require that we should do anything. What can we do? We are blind, lame, deaf, dumb, and are dead as the door nail. However all is not lost but abstain whole heartedly from fornication, men should leave women alone and women should leave men alone. That is why it is said, if you bestow all your goods to feed the poor and give your body to be burnt but you do not surrender yourself by abstaining from fornication, you have not done anything worthy of praise.
Those who have refrained from fornication, whose spirit of fornication is completely dead in them, have the right to knock their heads and thank God. Every person, man or woman who abstains from fornication has the right to thank God because he has a share in this tree of life. Because it is that woman prostitute who is pinning you down. Many of you here are lamenting and praying that the Father should deaden your sex organ. Some contemplating whether they should cut off that part of the body. For as this gospel is going on if you see a woman, you will be burning in your lust for her. If you see a man, you stick your neck on him despite the gospel denouncing fornication.

SEX INFLUENCE IS POWERFUL
Brethren, the sex influence is very weighty. Some complain that it is the woman who has charmed him or vice versa, it is no charm at all, but it is the sexual influence, which is most powerful. It destroys great kings and learned men: it demolishes wealthy persons, the government, the church and every other thing and so condemns the whole world. Now many people are crying and lamenting because of the sin of fornication and its punishment?
IF YOU DO NOT WISH THAT THE CHRIST SHOULD RULE OVER YOU, YOU WILL BE ELIMINATED:
I am making this proclamation from High Heaven to the whole world. Go and tell it to your church denomination, millionaires, government, scientists, kings and principalities, philosophers, astronomers and to astrologers that total abstinence from fornication is required because it is the sin which has brought untold suffering to the inhabitant of the world. Because the Father alienated the flesh to Himself to rule, He has appointed Our Lord Jesus Christ to control all flesh, but if you refuse that He should rule over you, then destruction sets in. As you sit down or stand, nothing can have dominion over you. It is only God who has dominion over you. Whoever does not wish that He should rule over him will be annihilated. This is the last world; there will be no other. If you like, He will rule over you, but if you reject Him, you will be eliminated. Have you heard what He has said? But those mine enemies, who would not that I should reign over them, bring hither and slay them before Me. Who are those who do not wish that He should rule over them? They are those who do not want to forsake fornication, this means that you do not wish that Our Lord Jesus Christ should reign over your body
A great number of people when they listen to a gospel such as this, will become so petrified with fear but as soon as they go back, they again become entangled in it head-long. This means that you have demolished the house and do not wish that Our Lord Jesus Christ should reign over you, you are therefore, declared a wanted person.
This gospel must be given to any person who wants to become a Crusader or enroll in flesh as a Brotherhood. Give it to men of all stations in life, the governor, the president, Archbishop, millionaire, professor and scientist. The gospel should be disseminated to all parts of the world, and in water for the water Spirits.

NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH
This is the vision which John the Divine had, in Revelation when he said that I saw the first heaven and the first earth were passed away and a new heaven and new earth appeared and he continued to say I saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem coming from God out of Heaven prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And he heard a great voice out of heaven saying behold the tabernacle of God is with men and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God will wipe away all tears from their eyes and there shall be no more death neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain for the former things are passed away. Give Him the chance in your heart that He may come and dwell there in. Have you given Him the chance in your heart?
Now God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit have come down according to His promise to dwell in His house but unfortunately his house is defiled. When He dwells in your heart, you will not die again, will never be sick and will never be poor and will not do any type of work again, you will now be in Heaven. The trouble and problem afflicting the world is attributable to the fact that people do not give Him the chance to enter into His house.
Know ye, therefore, that the Father has opened your ears because Our Lord Jesus Christ used to conclude His discourses by the Words “Those who have ears let them hear”. God has today opened all the human ears in the world and you will hear the Word of God. The Father’s farewell address of January 1983 had enjoined that all members whether they like it or not, it is incumbent upon them to hear the Word of God from this year, all must also practice the Word of God. The farewell addresses for January, April and August will be compiled into one book and every body should have it in his library. From now till eternity it is incumbent upon all children of God to practice the gospel. The second lesson will now be read. Listen attentively, of course I have given all the inhabitants of the world and angels also the ears to listen to and assimilate these words.

2nd Lesson: 1 Corinthians 6: 18
“Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.”
Brethren, have you heard that? An adage has it that what is delicious in the mouth of sick person, he will continue to eat that until he dies. Can you not realise that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Those who continue to fornicate have sinned against their own body, and have sinned against God.

FORNICATION DEFILES THE BODY
If you have been in Brotherhood for twenty years but you do not yet refrain from fornication, your twenty years are but nothing. If you have just come to Brotherhood today and you refrain from fornication, you are better than somebody who has been here for a million years but still persists in fornication. If you are in the world or in any of the church denomination but do not fornicate, you are better than somebody who professes to be Brotherhood and puts on the white raiment, a hundred times. These are they who will inherit this glory, they are found in the different church denominations and in different communities, they have seen this glory but they have not yet been manifested in the flesh, they rejoice in the glory.
A fornicator has not yet seen this glory. And so brethren, know that every sin you commit is without your body but whosoever commit fornication sins against his own body. It was the sin of fornication, which killed Adam and Eve. God is calling upon all the inhabitants of the world to flee fornication both men and women, government and church alike, spiritual churches, necromancers, soothsayers, men of all stations in life both big and small to run away from the sin of fornication. Tell the millionaires, the kings and emperors and principalities, the governors and presidents, the church dignitaries to run away from fornication.
What Adam would have done in the beginning, he rather asked in the end; when God told him not to eat of the forbidden fruit, if he had not eaten, he would not have been disgraced. But at the end he asked God to remove the sex urge from him, and God indeed removed the sex urge, that was why he could live for a further 930 years. Brethren, you cannot do that out of your own volition but ask Him. Do not ask Him for money and health but ask and plead with Him to take away from you that sex urge.

FORNICATION IS INTERNAL CANKER-WORM
It is not an external disease but an internal canker worm, which eats into the fabric of your body which no person can control because it is not your pleasure to continue with the hideous sin. You may be sitting doing some other thing but the urge begins to burn in you and you are pressurised to commit fornication, after the act you will realise yourself but it will be too late because you will be too helpless.
Do you know from where it comes? It is hereditary and you inherit it from your great grand father, it is latent and it is not easy to suppress it by force, if you do it by force you harm yourself. It is from the blood of your great grand father. He committed fornication; even your first father Adam committed fornication. This sin is hereditary from Adam and Eve. It is said I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon the children unto the third and forth generation of them that hate Me. For that reason, many have cried and lamented that God should kill them but He has not killed them. When men see women they begin to fidget and become lousy, sticking their necks. When women see men they also burn with urge for sex even if you want to shot them down, they are not bothered, because they are swallowed up in their desires.
FORNICATION INFECTS ALL PARTS OF YOUR BODY
You have heard that lesson, it says every sin that a man commits is without the body but whoever commits fornication has sinned against his own body. It permeates into your flesh, bones, blood stream, joints and marrow and ligaments and will infect and contaminate all parts of your body, rendering them useless. If you take any drug, you will urinate it out, if you drink any type of wine you will also urinate out, if your rub anything on your body, you will wash it off, but when you fornicate, the element will forever remain in your body. That is why the Bible confirms that we were shapen in iniquity and born in sin, because that blood of fornication is over-whelmed in you.
Your first sexual intimacy is with a female prostitute, and it was a male prostitute who broke your virginity, that is why you carry about with you the mark of fornication. You find in this world people gallivanting the streets like he-goats, full fledged men with cars packed by road sides lamenting and begging in a women’s house and if moral persuasion is not applicable they use combat by committing forceful rapes against a girl or a boy. It is because of that permeating promiscuous blood. So brethren, I am shedding tears for you Crusaders and the inhabitants of the whole Brotherhood world that you should forget about what had transpired in the past and refrain completely from fornication. Because it is a pathetic and sorrowful situation for God to fail fulfilling His own will in the world. Since He had promised to fulfill His will, it is impossible that He will deviate from it.

ONLY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST CAN CLEANSE YOU
See to it that the precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ will not be made of none effect. Who ever plant coco-yam expects the multiplication of the specie seen and whoever marries expects children from the marriage. Our Lord Jesus Christ did shed His Blood: because the blood of a goat or cow cannot cleanse you. The blood of any man, thief, murderer or any son of man cannot cleanse and redeem man but the precious Blood of God alone cleanses the sin of fornication from your body which Adam and Eve initiated in action.
The reason that God has left man with utter abandonment and allows him to suffer under the angel is for this sin of fornication, because every sin that a man commits is without His body but any person who commits fornication sins against his own body. It means that when man commits fornication the house of God is defiled and rendered uninhabitable and so God cannot dwell in it. This explains why they are afflicted. If God dwells in you and you in Him what can harm you? Death will have no dominion over you, neither man, nor sun, moon, or any other thing can rear its ugly head against you or flap its wings.

FORNICATION SEPARATES MAN FROM GOD
Do not be deceived into believing that there is any secret thing in Brotherhood. The only secret thing is that when you refrain from fornication, God the Father and the Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit will dwell in you and have dominion over you and control you.
Whenever you commit fornication you become like an orange whose juice has completely been sucked out and the fibre is thrown away. When you fornicate, you become like a woman who has reached the end of her child bearing age, and can bear no children any longer, she must be left alone. When you commit fornication you are like a plantain stem, which after the ripe bunch has been cut off becomes useless. The only hope of God is to dwell in your body and when you defile the house, you render yourself useless, and uninhabitable. Let us have our golden text:

Golden Text: 1 Corinthians 3: 16-18
“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is Holy, which temple ye are. Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.”

Brethren, have you heard what is read to you? The Scriptures warn that you should not fornicate as some of them committed and died 23,000 in one day. It is said, know ye not that you are the temple of God and that the spirit of God dwells in you and if any person defiles the temple of God him will God destroy. Can you observe the high incidences of death in the world in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening, in the night and at every moment of time taking toll of both young and old, small or great, of lawyers, judges, millionaires, kings, queens, presidents, governors. Why? It is only that you have rendered yourself useless.

FORNICATION BRINGS ABOUT DEATH
What has brought about death? It is fornication. God has come to dwell in His building, which is your body so that He may be glorified because He has come to assume His reign both in Heaven and on earth. If He does not rule, no other phenomenon can rule. This is the reign of God. So whosoever does not accept His rule, must be eliminated. Those who accept him will reign with Him and be glorified with Him. This is not the time to plead with any person; this marks the final epoch.
Do not disturb yourself building a church. There is nothing like church, man is God’s building and He is a Spirit and dwells in you. He does not live in another place apart from your body. You notice Him within yourself. He is talking to you and indwelling in you and for this reason nothing has dominion over you. You neither suffer under the rain, the scorching heat, death or sickness.

A Samaritan woman told Our Lord Jesus Christ ‘you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship, but our forefathers worshipped in this mountain.’ But Our Lord Jesus Christ told her, ‘woman believe Me the hour is coming when you will neither worship the Father in this mountain nor yet in Jerusalem.’ For you worship what you do not know but we worship what we know for salvation is of the Jews. And He said but ‘the hour is coming and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him.’ He then concluded, ‘God is a Spirit, and they who worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.’

YOU ARE THE TEMPLE WHICH SHINES
John the Divine also bore testimony when he said “I saw no temple therein for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the Temple in it; and the city had no need for the light of the sun neither of the moon to shine in it for the glory of God did lighten it and the Lamb is the light thereof.” What is the significance of this? It signifies that you are the temple, and the Lamb, and the Father shines in you and you are the light, and your body is an embodiment of all wisdom, power, wealth, glory; you are the city of God, the city of the King and the Kingdom of God. From the beginning of the world no person has pleased the Father. Solomon built a temple and others went to the mountain. These were erroneous. This is the appropriate time, the fullness of time that was predicted that God would dwell in man. Since I am making this declaration from Highest Heaven every inhabitant of the world is listening to this gospel; all Spirits and Angels are also listening to this gospel. Waters, Hades, Heavens have all received this gospel. Do not worry yourself any longer to look for money with which to serve God or to build a house for God where you can worship but refrain from fornication. Behold there is a stranger at the door knocking and waiting for you to open. Open the gate of your heart and He will enter. Purify yourself, deny and denounce fornication.

IF YOU DEFY YOUR BODY, GOD WILL DESTROY YOU
From this moment you listen to this Gospel, refrain from fornication and comply with the contents of this gospel because the Scriptures have advised: “Today when you will hear My voice harden not your heart!” If the one who spoke to them from the earth and they hearken not and were not saved how much less him who speaks to them from High Heaven, how do you hope to be saved. Man is neither God, or Christ, or Spirit, or Jehovah, but you are God’s building, and God’s husbandry, flee fornication and when He passes into your body, He will be glorified and you with Him. Tell it to traditional rulers, wise men, wealthy men, and churches that if they defy the temple of God, them will God destroy.
Those who marry hundred women should call a halt to their venture; those who indulge in plurality of husbands should abstain. There is time for everything, and this is the era of God, the owner of the vineyard has come into His vineyard, let Him pass through.
Disseminate this gospel to every body everywhere, so that no one would argue that he did not hear. All women in the Association of prostitutes should be advised to withdraw forthwith, for the job is destructive and killing. All those who go about prostituting, jumping from pillar to post in search of a woman or man, should be advised to stop immediately.

Both men and women should advise themselves on this issue of fornication because the destruction and calamity that will befall fornicators is dreadful and incomprehensible. They will be dying and perishing in millions. What you witness in the world today is that the wrath of God is visited on people. They have ears but bluntly refuse to listen to the Word of God. God is not poor. He is never in lack; therefore your demand to come and minister unto Him is uncalled for He has come to serve and also to be served. He has to rule over you in love, joy, peace and humility, and to have dominion over all His creations.
Heaven and earth belongs to God, the world and the fullness thereof belongs to Him and we are also His property. Do not choose a house for Him for you are His House, city, and vineyard; surrender yourself completely to Him. If you accept Him, keep yourself undefiled and surrender yourself to Him, you will reap the fruits of the earth. But if you are disobedient and defy the house of God, He will destroy you.
Take this gospel to the president by hand, to the governors, to the Prime Minister, Kings and Queens, Emperors and Traditional Rulers, send it to the Government and other institutions, send it to intellectuals, the Queen of England and men of all stations in life. Advise them to refrain from fornication.

Brethren, I do not intend to be tedious unto you, one stroke of the cane is sufficient for the wise. Those who have ears, let them hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

Thank you Good Father.

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

AFTER 1999 SOMETHING SPECTACULAR WILL HAPPEN

First Lesson: Romans 8 v 14
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the Sons of God.”

Second Lesson: St. John 15 v 9
“As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you; continue ye in My love.”

Golden Text: Revelations 2 v 4 – 5
“Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou hast fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.”

The warning from God
This voice is coming from the highest plane to all parts of the world. All the nations of the world should listen attentively to this Lesson. Let all the trees in the forest, the animals in the forest, the birds in the air, the fishes in the sea, human beings, angels and all created and uncreated things, listen to this message because it is a message for the entire world. The time for the judgement of God is at hand. You have already been told that judgement will begin from the house of God. Let nations, human beings and angels not joke with the time.
You have money, children, clothes, houses and other things in the world, but I have one thing against you. You have health, landed properties, children, husbands and wives, and many other things and none of these things are evil. Do not forget about these words: “Heaven and earth and the fullness thereof belongs to God.” The man of God asked:
“Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who shall stand in His Holy place? He that has clean hands and a pure heart, who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.” Psalm 24:3-5 That is why this message is sent to you from the Most High, to all human beings, animals, trees, birds, fishes and angels, so that no person may live to regret.
This message is also directed to the millionaires, professors, judges, highly learned persons, kings, emperors and all sorts of people in the world. Whether you go to church or not; whether you make concoctions or not; whether you are a necromancer or not, whether you are a man or a woman, black, white or coloured; this message is for the entire world. The wrath of God will be visited on all human beings, all animals and all of God’s creation, which have not walked along the path of rectitude. The time for the judgement of the Lamb of God is at hand. Since God is Love, Mercy, Truth, Patience, Humility, Self-control, Peace, Joy, Lowliness of heart; that is why He has chosen to send this message to the entire world. God is not slow to redeem His promise, but He has long patience and wants every person to become truly repentant. He had sent this same message to the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. When He heard about their transgressions, the atrocities that they have committed, their indulgence in roguery, fornication, adultery, whoremongering, etc, He had to send this message to the two cities. If you like open the book of Isaiah 1 v 10 – 20; when you get home read this portion and you will discover that the message given to you today, was sent to the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. The world today is the same Sodom and Gomorrah.
You who stay at home building houses and say that you are building a house for God; when you indulge in roguery, you say that you are doing it for God. God has told you as He has told the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah that the sacrifices of unrighteousness are not pleasing to Him. All that you are doing from day to day are the same things that the people of old were doing. If you read the book of God, you will discover that there is nothing new, everything that is happening now is exactly what happened in the past. The world of Noah is exactly what we have today. When Noah preached for a period of 120 years and the people paid deaf ears to his preaching, this is exactly what you are doing today. As the people of old put the words of Noah into disdain, so are you putting the words of God today into disdain. The Ark, which he built as instructed by God, was converted into a public toilet by the people of those days. It also became a place of salvation and redemption when somebody by accident fell into the excreta became well, so also others who had difficulties had to go and swim in the excreta in order to become well. No one has ever stopped to think about repentance. The only thing that prevailed was that whenever anyone was sick he was always directed to go to Noah’s Ark and fall into the faeces and he would become well. Look at the world today.

What is happening today is exactly what happened in the days of Noah, If the people of old had listened to the voice of Noah, which was the voice of the Most -High God, then God would not have destroyed the world. If the people of the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah had listened to the voice of Lot, which was the voice of the Almighty God, God would not have destroyed the two cities. Today is the last of all the ages, the last of the era. This is why He has directed this message to all the creations of God, to all the winged creatures, the wind and the hazards of the weather, the rain and the sun, and all the created and uncreated things.
This is the time for the judgement of God; this is the time when all trees must bend and all tongues sing His praises. All human beings, all animals, birds, fishes and creeping things have to recognise God now. Remember that in the beginning there was only one flock and one shepherd. Now everybody is staging a return to the Garden of Eden, so that we may all remain in one flock under one shepherd. Remember that at that particular time, there was no wars or rumours of wars, no quarrelling, fighting, drinking, fornication, adultery, concoctions, charms, talisman or any evil was found there during this time. Human beings, animals, birds, fishes and all created things lived together. Together with all of these things, God Himself lived there; our Lord Jesus Christ lived there; all the angels, the good people of God, human beings, animals, birds, fishes, trees and other created things lived there, because they remained in that one love. What led them? The Spirit of God led them. You are told that all those who are led by the Spirit of God, they alone are the children of God. When we say this to you, it seems as though we are speaking in a strange language to you.
What is the Spirit? The Spirit is God. What is God? God is Love. What is Love? Love is Mercy. What is Mercy? Mercy is Humility. What is Humility? Humility is good Conduct. What is good Conduct? It is to serve one another. The sum total of all that are enumerated is what is called God, and that is how to be led by the Spirit of God.
In those days, man did not kill animals or fowls, and snakes or animals did not bite man. They all existed in love, and lived together side by side. You are true witnesses to the fact that the animals, trees, etc. did not create themselves, all came into existence by the spoken Word, which is the Spirit. After creating all these things, God saw that it was good, and so He sanctioned all of them. You are witnesses to all these good things and you admire the flowers and the green leaves, and say how beautiful they are. Sometimes you observe how the domestic animals are very good and beautiful. The goats, hens, sheep, cows and all the others, God created all these things and saw that they were good, because He Himself is good; that is why He created all these things and wanted them to live together in love. At that time, there was no distinction between human beings, fishes and animals, all of them walked according to the Spirit; according to the instructions of God; according to the laws of God; according to the truth, humility, patience and all the virtues of God.

There was no curse, juju, mermaid, fornication and whore mongering, because the Spirit of God led all of them, and they complied with the instructions of our Lord Jesus Christ, “Love ye one another.” This is what He has said today, “Nevertheless I have somewhat against you because thou hast left the first love.” Adam was told to eat all the fruits in the garden, but he should not taste of the one in the middle of the garden, because it was the tree of good and evil. Any day that he would taste of that fruit he will surely die. From the day that they had tasted that fruit, they departed from God. From that day until today, no person walks by the Spirit of God. This is what is used in condemning all human beings, trees, all animals and birds, because they no longer walk in the love of God. It was for this same reason that the world of Noah was destroyed. Because the people did not want to live together in love, and love the trees, animals, birds, fishes, creeping things and all the other things, and to remain in the love of God; that is why that world was destroyed.
During the time of Lot, the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah refused to walk according to the instructions of God; according to His love; according to His grace, humility and His truth; for this reason these two cities were destroyed. It is stated also, that the Father wanted to destroy the world for the third time, and His Son offered to come and fertilise the ground, and put manure around it; and then offer Himself as a supreme sacrifice, to see if man would repent. You have forgotten one thing; He said, “If I go and manure the whole place and if the people become truly repentant, then they should be saved; but if after I have manure the whole place, they still refuse to repent, then they can be destroyed.”

FIRST LESSON: ROMANS 8: 14
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the Sons of God.”

Brethren have you heard what is read to you? That is your only channel of salvation. That was the first instruction that was given to Adam and Eve. He said, “I will teach you everything, you will not listen to the angels, or any other person, but listen attentively to Me, because I will teach you everything.” The only thing that we have to do is to listen to the Almighty God, which is the voice of the Spirit. If we listen to Him attentively and abide by His instructions, which says, “Love ye one another” and we love every person as we love ourselves, then we are saved. Adam was the Son of God for as long as he continued to keep the instructions of God, but from the time he ceased to comply with the instructions of God, he was no longer the Son of God. God is the Word. The Holy Spirit is the Word. If you do not comply yourselves with the instructions of God, it means that you are not children of God. When you erect a building, to whom do you build this house? When you marry a wife, to whom have you married this wife? My duty and your duty is to walk according to the instructions of God. The same thing was said by our Lord Jesus Christ when He said, “I can on my own do nothing, as I hear I judge, and My judgement is righteous, for I do not seek My own will but the will of He who sent Me.” He was the Son of man, the Son of God and God Himself, because He complied with the instructions of God.

Why Abraham and Moses were not the sons of God? It is because they erred somewhere. The reason why our Lord Jesus Christ who was the Son of David, Joseph, Abraham, and who was born by the Virgin Mary became the Son of God was because He complied Himself with the instructions of God. It is irrelevant whether you have one leg or one eye, whether you are a tree or a stone or an animal; once you comply with the instructions of God, you are a child of God. You will be surprised that none of the things, which we see, is new. Healing the sick is not new, raising the dead, making the deaf to hear, or the lame to walk; all these things are not new; what is new is complying yourself and walking according to the instructions of God. You must always walk according to the prompting of the Spirit. Where you are directed to go is where you go; when God say you must not do a particular thing you should not do it. If you comply with this, then you are a child of God. Sometimes you argue that “I have never committed murder, I have never committed theft and I have never fornicated,” but have you never disobeyed the voice of God?
Do you not know that in as much as you do not obey the voice of God, you do not walk according to the Spirit? You do not walk according to His love, and you do not walk according to His truth. His word is life, peace, truth, power and His word is everlasting. You do not have to speak according to your own volition, but you have to speak according to the voice you have heard; and you do not have to do anything according to your own prompting, but you have to act according to the prompting of the Spirit. The only thing that Christ used in conquering the whole world is that He always acts according to the prompting of the Spirit. Since the creation of the world there has never been anyone who walked according to the dictates of the Holy Spirit. The only person who has done this is our Lord Jesus Christ. Have you ever heard that He committed murder? Have you ever heard that He committed theft? Have you ever heard that He committed any act of sin? Did He ever hate anyone? Have you ever heard that He quarrelled with any person? Because the Spirit of God led him, the Father led him. When He was praying, He was always listening attentively to the Father. If the Father said He should run, He would run; if the Father said He should sit down, He would sit down; He obeyed whatever He was told to do by the Father. If you like you can read through the book of St Matthew or the synoptic gospels, and you will see that all the things written in all these pages; that our Lord Jesus Christ had never arrogated anything to Himself; He said that everything came from the Father. He said that the Father said this, that the Father did that; He never credited anything to Himself.
Have you not heard that when the Holy Spirit descended upon Him, that the Spirit led him into the desert? Not that He led the Spirit into the desert, but that the Spirit led him into the desert. He Himself would not have wanted to go into the desert, but He was led by the Spirit into the desert. Whatever He did was as directed by the Holy Spirit, because He had surrendered Himself as an instrument of the Father. Therefore wherever the Spirit took him, He had to follow. Read all the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and you will discover that He was referring everything to the Father. He never said that He Himself said anything, but He always said that the Father said or did. He said, “I can on my own do nothing, what the Father tells Me that is what I say because His instruction is everlasting life.” God cannot tell you to go and commit murder, or prepare concoctions; He cannot tell you to go and marry a wife or to beat up someone. He cannot tell you to do anything evil.
It was revealed through the Prophets that God will teach you everything, and that those who learn of Him will follow Him. There is nothing in the world that can lead you to the wisdom of truth. No human being can lead you, no tree, no animal, no bird or fish; nothing at all created can lead you to the accurate knowledge of the truth; it is only Our Lord Jesus Christ Who can teach you and lead you to the truth. Remember when the people said, how can He behave in this way, He has never seen the walls of any classroom; why is He so intelligent and indulgent? He told them that any person who practises My words would discover whether they come from Me or from the Father. He also continued to say that anyone who speak out of his own volition is looking for his own glory, but whoever speaks the words of He who has sent Him is the truth and there is no guile in him.

Have you not heard His instructions today? Continue ye in My love as I have continued in My Father’s love. God is Love; our Lord Jesus Christ is Love, and He has taught us how to love. We should therefore continue to abide in His love. No children do anything apart from what their father does, and no servant can do anything apart from what he has seen his master doing. As long as the son does not do what the father is doing, such is no longer the son. Any slave that does not listen attentively to the voice of his master is not a good slave. When you say that you are building a house for God, when did God actually tell you to build a house for Him? The Prophets has spoken that God does not dwell in houses made with hands. “What type of building will you erect for Me, did not My hands create all these things?” Oh ye disobedient and heady fellows who do not believe in the words of God.

You continue to resist the will of the Holy Spirit, even as your forefathers did. When you kill someone you say that he does not walk according to the instructions of God; or you see somebody who belongs to another church, you cast him into prison or beat him up and say that he is causing confusion everywhere. I ask you, is this how to preach the words of God? If the Spirit of God does not lead you, what are you? Can you see how pitiful we are? Do not boast in any wisdom of this earth. But boast in this wisdom of truth. He has brought love to us because He Himself is Love; the Son is Love; the Holy Spirit is Love; therefore it is a must that we love one another. We have no other instruction at this end of time, the only instruction is that we should love one another and continue to abide in this love, as He has loved us.
Adam departed from the love that is why the world was visited with wretchedness. Our forefathers departed from this love by committing murder, stealing, committing fornication, whoremongering, concoctions, charms, talisman and doing all sorts of things; that is why they fell from the way of rectitude. Go and read all the records of our Lord Jesus Christ, about His life and teachings; He did not teach anything apart from love. What do you think it is to walk by the Spirit of God? It is to comply with the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ, because His teachings constitute life, love, and it is God. It says, love your enemies and pray fervently for those who persecute you, so that you may resemble your Father who is in heaven, because He causes the rain to fall on the just and unjust, and the sun to shine on both the just and the unjust. If you love those who love you, and hate those who hate you, what spectacular thing have you done? Abraham, Moses and Adam did the same thing.
We should be perfect even also as our heavenly Father is perfect. You should not eat any animals, nor kill the birds or fishes, for this reason also you should not tell lies, commit murder or whoremongery, beat any person, or cast anyone into prison. If you read Genesis chapter one, you will discover that after God created man and every other thing; He prescribed the type of food that man should eat. He said, “You should eat from all the trees bearing seeds and fruits; these seeds and fruits shall be your food.” He gave man the superintendence over the animals in the bush, the fishes and birds, over all the creeping things, that he should superintend over all these things and love them. He did not give him the instruction to kill the snake, lizard or any animal, or to cut down any trees. God Himself does not commit any atrocity; therefore He cannot direct any one to kill anything. Now that it is said that a goat and cow is sacrificed to a mermaid or for concoction; I want to ask you whether any of these things have goats or any animals? God creates all these things Himself.
Now that you say that you are indulging in the preparation of concoctions, or that you are worshipping mermaids, charms, talisman, concoctions, etc. I tell you that all the things that you find, whether they are bark of trees, roots or herbs, sand and gravel or any other thing. Does God not create these things Himself? How do you know that when you say woe unto this tree that you have not abused God? How do you know that when you say to animal, woe unto you, that the animal you have cursed is not God Himself? You think that God is as stupid as you are. When you remain and have nothing wrong with you, for no reason you begin to fight and struggle with one another. He has divided Himself into all the things that you see in the world. Some parts in the ground, these are the Spirits, some in the animals, some in the trees and all the other things that you see. The Spirit of God creates all these things; therefore they are mini gods. All these things are human. The sand, stones, trees, animals are humans and all of them are your brothers. It is therefore incumbent on all the human beings to love the trees, animals, birds, fishes and creeping things. He has not directed that you should go and worship a tree, or pluck leaves and pound them into concoctions and rub them on your body. As He is protecting you, so is He protecting all the other things; as He loves you, so He loves all the other things. As He directs you, so does He direct all the other things.

SECOND LESSON: ST JOHN 15: 9
“As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you; continue ye in My love.”

Have you seen what it is to walk by the prompting of the Holy Spirit? There was love in existence from the beginning of the world. That love was with God, and that love was with the Son and the love is with the Holy Spirit. How many categories of love do you have? It is only One Love. Christ said, “As the Father has loved Me, so I love you, abide ye in My love.” You have no other city or country in which you live, your country is Love. The country of the fishes is Love; the country of the trees and animals is Love, and we have to live inside this Love. What is the Father? The Father is Love. What is the Word? The Word is Love. What is the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit is Love. What is Love? Love is you. If you do not love the person that you see with your eyes, it means that you have no love. You have to love Me and I will reciprocate and all of us have to love one another, because we are members of the family of God.
Whosoever love God must love his brother also. If you love God you must love the fishes. If you love God you must love the animals. If you love God you must love the grass. If you love God you must love the trees, the creeping things, the winged creatures and all the other creations of God, because He Himself is found in all of these things. If you abide in His love you will never be annoyed, you will not quarrel with anyone, you will not steal and you will not commit any of the other sins and vices. If you steal money in order to build a house, or cast someone into prison, it means that you have no love. Do not look for God anywhere else, look for Him in Love. Do not look for our Lord Jesus Christ somewhere else, look for Him in Love. Do not look for the children of God somewhere else, look for them inside Love, because Love is the beginning and the end. That is why we are told today to continue in that love. Paul asked, “What shall separate me from the love of Christ? Is it hunger, sickness, imprisonment, wretchedness or death? Nevertheless nothing can separate me from the love of God which is Christ Jesus.”
If we love the brethren, it means that we are walking according to the prompting of the Spirit; it means that we are walking with the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Everything will pass away, but love will never pass away forever. God loved the Son, but He surrendered the Son to come and die in order to redeem you and Me. The Son loved the Father, that is why He accepted to comply with these instructions, and because of the love He has for us; He accepted to come and shed His precious blood for your redemption and Mine. We must therefore reciprocate the love, which our Lord Jesus Christ has for us by loving the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Whoever loves his brother has passed completely from death to life.

Knowledge will pass away, prophecy will cease, visions will vanish and all other things will pass away but love will endure forever. Knowledge is man made, but love comes from God. Love has no grievous to anyone. Love is the fulfilment of the law. Love does not tell lies, is not annoyed, does not hate, fornicate, commit adultery, steal or deceive anyone. It is because man departed from the first love that death, sickness, poverty and all the encumbrances came into the world.
Go and tell all the people in the world, the angels and all the creations of God, because I am declaring this from high heaven that whoever does not have love is in death. So brethren, obedience is better than sacrifice. Since Adam departed from this first love, do you not see what has become of the world? Send someone to a university to study medicine and let him return to cure all sicknesses; I tell you that this is nonsense because if you have no love, you will always be faced with difficulties, problems, sickness, wretchedness, death, hunger and all other things. What is the wisdom behind your killing of somebody in order to get money, or casting someone into prison in order to get money? Fighting with somebody in order to get money, or doing any other thing to acquire money, when you know that by doing all these things you will continue to be wretched?

Sometimes you say, “I want to be a millionaire, traditional ruler, great man or to have prominent children.” Have you not heard what has been read to you, that whoever does not have love abide in death? Have you not heard that the wages of sin is death? The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus? Do you not want eternal life? Whoever hates his brother remains in death, and he has no share in this kingdom of God. It is because the Father does not want you to perish, and the entire world, that He has sent you this last message. This is an everlasting gospel, which will never be preached again, and you will have to comply yourself with it, in order to have everlasting life. This gospel must be preached to the entire world, that is why we have to tape record it and have it produced in pamphlets, and then distribute it throughout the world, so that no one will be able to say that they did not know about this gospel.

When you argue that you have not paid tithe, and because of this you have annoyed God, that is useless because God does not want your money. When you say that you have no child, therefore when you die there will be nothing to remember you by; do not think about such things because God is not interested. When you complain that you have not built a house like those of your age group, God does not want any building. Any day that He wants a house He will build one for Himself. God only want one thing from you, and that is that you must go back to that first love. When you argue that you cannot attend service, you have no white garment and you cannot go barefooted; God is not interested in your white garment. There is only one thing that He has used in condemning you from the time of Adam. The punishment besetting the world today is not such that you should bear, but because your fore fathers and all of you have departed from the first love, that is why you are visited with all these tribulations. It is prophesied that you should not be puffed up. Any day that you are puffed up, the candlestick will be removed from its place. What is there in the world that you can boast of? You cannot boast about anything apart from love. When you have love, you have life and you have everything. Of what use it is for you to be a king, a president, a governor, a minister, a millionaire, a learned person, or that you have wisdom? All these things are useless. Sometimes you argue that you want to serve your country, constituency, church and your community. Which are you going to serve in? Or you say that you want to establish a government and leave the leadership to your children. With what are you going to do all these things? Do you know where you and your constituency and church will go? Since God does not take pleasure in the death of an evil person, that is why He has directed this message to you, so that you may become truly repentant and enter into everlasting life.

After 1999, I have told you before and I am repeating now, that something Spectacular will happen. All the Gospels preached and tape-recorded and written will come to pass at that particular time. The testimony of our Lord Jesus Christ is the Spirit of prophecy. There has never been a time that the Word of God touches down and return empty handed.

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 2: 4 – 5
“Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou hast fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.”
Brethren, have you seen how great the love of God is for us? Have you any argument to put forward, because I see the whole world as people who do not have love. No church denomination, no black- man, white- man, or coloured. No facets of society or institution have love. That is why you are overshadowed with darkness. This gospel must be submitted to Me, if not today, by tomorrow. This gospel must be written and circulated to all the children of men in the world. If you have no children, money, work and relations you cannot be condemned for these things. There is only one thing used in condemning you and that is, you have left that first love. If you perish today it is not because you have no husband, wife, children, a job, or that you have not administered to the poor, but you will perish because you have departed from the first love of God. Compare this gospel with the writings in Isaiah 1 v 10 – 20, summarised in the Revelations, “Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou hast fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.”

This gospel serves as the final stage of the changeover. Therefore you have been given a commission to go and preach this gospel to the millionaires, governors, kings, presidents, emperors and principalities. Tell them that if they do not return to the first love and repent, the candlestick will be removed from its place. Go and preach to the Pope, Archbishop of Canterbury, Pastors, Reverends, Evangelists and Apostles; and all those who have formed their own churches and have many branches. Tell them that if they do not return to that first love of God, God is prepared to remove the candlestick from its place. You realise that He searches the hearts and reins, and that He does not look at things on the surface, but looks deep inside. He searches your heart and brain. He does not look at these beautifully decorated cities and their high standard of civilisation. If you do not repent, then the candlestick has to be removed from its place.
If anybody ask you why the world is beset with problems and difficulties, tell them that the world has departed from the first love of God. God does not look for your money, wisdom, houses, or anything at all. He wants you to have that love, and extend that love to all His creations. He says that we should not steal, fornicate, indulge in whoremongery, make concoctions and you should love every person as you love yourself. Love is not clothing, food or building. It is that you should not impute sins on anyone, think evil about anyone, or speak evil about anyone. Do not disregard anyone, despise anyone or sow the seeds of discord. Take everybody as yourself. It is said that the children are not the ones to provide for the parents, but it is the duty of the parents to provide for the children. God does not look for your wives, children, money or clothing, but He does not want you to perish.

Remember when Peter took up the sword to cut off the ear of one of the servants of the high priest; our Lord Jesus Christ told him to put away his sword, because whoever lives by the sword must surely die by the sword. Whoever kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Evil men will wax worse, deceiving and being deceived. Refrain completely from all manners of vices, because no vice can serve any useful purpose to any person. From now to December you must completely change your lifestyle. You must withdraw all your court cases, and be reconciled with all your adversaries. You must not indulge in any vice. You have to look for the black goat when it is not yet dark, because when it is dark it will be impossible for you to find it. Right now there is nothing like concoctions, juju, money, or houses in existence. All these things are regarded with disdain. If God had not loved us, He would not have given us such large latitude in order that we may become altogether changed. You all know that you are all instruments in this Vineyard, and when you complain that you have pain in your waist, head, back, stomach, etc; this is erroneous. The problem is because you have departed from that first love and you have no love towards another person. This is the cause of your problem. You ask what is the cause of the trouble in your family; it is because you do not have love. When you ask what is the cause of the trouble in Nigeria? The cause of the problem is because Nigerians have no love. When you ask about the cause of the trouble in Africa, it is because of lack of love. The trouble in the Western World is because no white man has any atom of love in him. When you ask about the trouble and tribulations in the whole world, it is because of lack of love.
You always say that God is your witness that you have love. Today after this gospel, can you say that God is your witness that you have love? Today after this gospel can you defend yourself? God is no respecter of person. After hearing this gospel, go and give it to the Pope, Archbishop of Canterbury, and find out if any of them have love. The Pope has no love, the Archbishop of Canterbury has no love, the Army Officer who says he want to defend his nation give him this gospel to read and he will see whether he has love. If he had love, he would not have committed murder by killing people. When you stay in the court and say that you are a judge or magistrate, and you condemn someone to death or send someone to prison, have you got love? You say that you are working for the government, you are a policeman and you arrest somebody because he has committed murder or stolen, for this reason you throw him into prison, have you got love as a policeman? Is it possible for satan to cast out satan? Can you use sin to take away sin? God says that He does not look on any other thing that you have done, but He has looked at one particular thing, and that is that you have departed from the first love.

I do not condemn Abraham, Isaac and Moses; all of them committed murder. Were they directed by God to go and kill any person? Abraham, when he heard that his nephew Lot was abducted by soldiers; he went to that community and destroyed everything, and then return home with spoils of war. When you claim that you are a friend of Abraham, because he was a friend of God, do not go to that aspect of being a friend of God. When you claim to be a disciple of David, I will warn you not to be a disciple of David. This gospel is intended for every person in the world. It is the last gospel, the everlasting gospel, and therefore you have to comply with the contents of this gospel. You have to go back to that first love of God. If our Lord Jesus Christ did not come to redeem mankind, how do you think that Abraham, Moses and David would have been saved? After all these things have been done, have you seen any peace in the world? The changeover symbolises your returning to that first love of God, which you have departed from. Every person has to return to that first love. We are retracing our steps back to the Garden of Eden. Many of you are still hunting animals, killing birds and animals; and afterwards you scratch your head and say, “God forgive me,” it is too late.
When you kill your goat; looking left and right and you do not see anyone you say, “Let us quickly eat up this thing and go away.” When you capture a goat in order to slaughter it, it begins to bleat because it is trying to help itself, but you do not want to let it go, and you chop off its head. These animals that you are killing, have instincts; it is only that they have no reasoning faculties. The only thing which man has used to outwit animals is that man has reasoning faculties. If you want to kill an animal, it knows that you are going to kill it, but it has no reasoning faculties to know how to escape from you. When you are going to steal, you have reasoned with yourself that maybe those people will have prepared for you with guns, swords and machetes. You also will prepare yourself and be armed. You will have your disciples lay ambush around the house as you go in and steal. You have already prepared yourself well.
So brethren take this gospel and preach it to your wife, and to the angels. I know that every person is listening now. Even the angels are listening. The angels, who do not comply with these instructions, stand to perish. The significance of the changeover is for every one of us to confess our sins and become truly repentant, and return to that first love. The only way to changeover is to be completely reborn. And become reconciled to your adversaries; those you are quarrelling with, those you have been speaking evil against; you have to become truly reconciled. And then refrain from stealing, fornication, preparation of concoctions, whoremongery, and then go back to that first love.

This gospel will be taken to the whole world; it will be preached in all the nooks and corners of the world, before the end comes. Do not preach about the church denominations or man, but preach about love. Tell them that no person in the world has love. Tell them that God has revealed that love to us and that God wants us to return to this first love. All those who have love are the children of God. The whole world is languishing in the hands of the evil one, because all the people in the world are now dying out.

I have no intention of being tedious unto you; one stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. Let those who have ears, hear; may God bless His holy words, Amen.

Thank You Good Father

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

BAPTISM “CRITERION FOR SALVATION”

FIRST LESSON: ST. MARK 16: 16
“He that believeth and is baptised shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned”.

SECOND LESSON: ACTS 2: 38-39
“Then Peter said unto them, repent, and be baptised everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call”.

GOLDEN TEXT: ST. JOHN 3: 5
“Jesus answered, verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God”.

FIRST AND SECOND BAPTISM
Brethren, the texts above have summarized this gospel. You have been reading these portions for years, yet you could not understand what they meant. This gospel is meant to reveal to you that those who practice the injunctions of God must be saved, and also those who are qualified for the Kingdom of God.
There are two major things needed in the Kingdom. The first is to repent and refrain from all manners of sins, and the second is baptism by immersion in water. This will qualify you for forgiveness and remission of your sins by God. We have two types of baptism in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star – Baptism of forgiveness of sins and that of the Holy Spirit. If you undertake one and fail to take the other, it avails you nothing. If you had committed any sin, no matter how grievous that sin was, once you are baptised into brotherhood, you are washed clean. Since you have repented and refrained from your sins, our Lord Jesus Christ and the Father will forgive all your sins. That is the first baptism. The second baptism is that of the Holy Spirit. If God bestows you with the gift of the Holy Spirit, your heart will be pure. Consequently, there will be no judgement against you anymore. You will be completely free from all problems.

If you are bestowed with the gift of the Holy Spirit, yet your sins are not forgiven due to the fact that you are not baptised, you are not saved. If you had received the baptism of the Holy Spirit but do not accept that of immersion in water, there is no salvation for you. On the other hand, if you receive baptism of immersion in water but does not receive that of the Holy Spirit, you are not saved. Though you may have received several baptisms from all corners of the world, if you fail to receive that of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star your sins will not be remitted, which indicates that you are not saved. This is because this baptism is preceded by repentance. This is the judgement. Whoever knows that he/she is a sinner, such a person has to go to Christ by repenting and refraining from those sins and then, get baptised. Apart from this, there is no salvation. Salvation eludes so many people who refuse to be baptised into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star having been baptised in their previous denominations. They do not know that any baptism without a proper confession of sins is no baptism. Let it be known that whoever baptises with all his sins with him is not a baptised member of any church; and in such a case, he cannot be saved.

However, if after receiving the aforementioned, you still believe in and continue to prepare diabolical substances, go on marrying so many wives and in fact, indulge in any sin, it means that what you had received was not the baptism of our Lord Jesus Christ. Our Lord Jesus Christ said that whosoever ‘believeth and is baptized is saved’. He however, did not add that, after the baptism whoever goes back to his sinful ways should still be saved. If you realize that you are a sinner and repent of your sins and accept this baptism, it means you have died and resurrected with our Lord Jesus Christ, through this way, all your sins are forgiven. These two types of baptism are necessary because through them, the true children of God, who are scattered all over the world, can easily be identified.
It should be noted that not all the inhabitants of the world are bestowed with the gift of the Holy Spirit. The second lesson reveals that you should repent and be baptized so that you may receive the Holy Spirit. This promise is for you, your children and your great grand children. All those who do not possess the gift of the Holy Spirit are not His true children. Though you may be baptized (by immersion in water) and your sins forgiven, if you do not receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, it means you are not His true follower. This is because you cannot sing, preach or heal. This indicates that the Father has not elected you for His glory.
Do not blame any person who has received baptism, but does not receive the Holy Spirit, for he has not yet been chosen. Such a person can neither surrender himself to God nor believe that God is the one doing the work in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Whenever such people receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, they will believe fervently. That is why we have these two types of baptisms. You can now understand why the golden text emphasizes on the point that one must be born of water and spirit otherwise he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. If your sins are not forgiven and you have not received the Holy Spirit, then, you are not worthy of this Kingdom. Some people confessed some of their sins leaving others. If you refused to confess all your sins, you cannot receive the Holy Spirit. Do not forget that the confession, baptism and reception of the Holy Spirit constitute the first death and resurrection. Revelation 2: 11 states that “…. He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death”.
Therefore, it is mandatory that you confess all your sins before baptism, for if you did not die with our Lord Jesus Christ, you will not resurrect with Him. On the other hand, all those who participated in the first death shall not ‘taste’ of the second death.

THE ESSENCE OF CONFESSION OF SIN
Whosoever does not believe in the truth cannot be saved. Believing connotes refraining from former vices and involvement. When this is done you are free. Also, once you receive the two baptisms as practiced in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, you live a problem free life, because you are one with the Father. In fact, you will become a new person in our Lord Jesus Christ. A lot of people who claim to be church- goers are still plagued with various illnesses. The reason is that, they were baptized with their sins in them, which tantamount to no baptism. As earlier been said there is no meaningful baptism that could be effected when a person has not denounced his cults and all the vices he or she had been practicing. It is not confession of sins alone that matters. The crux of the exercise is repenting and refraining from sins. Take the case of a man from Eniong who came to this place, for instance, when the book, ‘First Step to God’ was given to him, after going through it, he left with the excuse that he had to complete his rounds of medication in the hospital first. Meanwhile, this man was receiving treatment in the hospital, but the gospel in that book abhors that. And for that reason, he fled and till now, he had not returned. He did not realize that if he had confessed his sins and got baptized his sickness and problems would have been over.
If baptism were to be of no importance, our Lord Jesus Christ could not have requested John the Baptist to get Him baptized. Read St. Matthew 3: 13-15

“Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John forbade him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? And Jesus answering said unto him suffers it to be so now, for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he suffered him”.

Our Lord Jesus Christ baptized at the age of 30 (thirty) in the month of August. That was the day He died the first death, and for that reason, the second death had no dominion over Him; so He resurrected. That is what is applicable to all the children of God; death has no power over them. What you call death is no death but a spiritual transfer. The first death is that day you repent and completely refrain from all sins and get baptized. When you are baptized (by immersion), and do not go back to your former vices, but surrender yourself to the service of God, you cannot die anymore. This is because; you have no more association with the agents of death. What are the agents of death? They are fornication, lies, stealing, murdering, backbiting and many other vices.
All those who are still lustful of the world and the fullness thereof, inspite of their baptism, shall be damned. Our Lord Jesus Christ, for instance, was a qualified carpenter from His youthful age to the age of thirty. All along, He was doing the carpentry work, but after His baptism, He received the Holy Spirit without measure; and since then, He did not go back to carpentry. He continued with the work of God having surrendered Himself fully to Him (God). Up till this moment, He has been in active service without slumbering. This is the model of all believers.

You may recall that when our Lord Jesus Christ was not baptized, Satan did not tempt Him. Immediately after His baptism, He was taken to the wilderness where He fasted forty days and nights. There and then Satan tempted Him. Read St. Matthew 4: 1-10. It should be noted that our Lord Jesus Christ could not succumb to these temptations because the Holy Spirit led him. Note very importantly that this Holy Spirit was bestowed upon Him just after His baptism. Therefore, when Satan departed from Him, the angels ministered him unto. Similarly the angels shall minister to those who had decided to forsake all forms of sins and get baptized. On the other hand, those who have refused to forsake all forms of sins and get baptized shall be damned.

Henceforth, before any person is baptized, must read this gospel and be prepared to refrain from all vices and evil practices, which are not in consonance with the tenets of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. If this is not done, your baptism should be regarded as an ordinary bath in the water. However, if you hearken to this teaching, you will be free from all bondage of sin and Satanism. You will then become the real child of God. Romans 6: 2 asks: “…How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” Our Lord Jesus Christ died once and thereafter He lives. Those who are dead and can never resurrect are those who have never been baptized. The root cause of death without resurrection can be traced to the wrong preaching given to new converts – that once they are baptized, all their problems are gone. They are not told to repent and refrain from sins. These new converts therefore, go in for baptism as though they are going to the hospital or to the necromancer. Whosoever knows and confesses his or her sins, repents and baptizes is saved. This is because his sins having been forgiven on earth, is forgiven also in heaven. Whether you are a Royal Highness, king, queen, pope, archbishop, millionaire, billionaire, general or field Marshall in the armed forces you have to abide by this teachings. Apart from this, you have yourself to blame.

DENOUNCE YOUR OLD WAYS BEFORE BAPTISM:
The two baptisms – Repentant and Holy Spirit are very important. If you undergo these two types of baptisms, you will have nothing to do with anger, fighting, bearing malice or anything that will cause discrimination, discomfort and segregation. This is why some people say that they are baptized into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, yet they can not pray, preach nor practice any gospel. In addition to baptism of repentance, if you had received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, you will not gossip, backbite, tell lies, indulge in idolatry, commit adultery, smoke tobacco and take all types of drugs. Do not ask any person to rush for baptism so that his sickness, court case or other problems may be cast away. Let the person confess all his or her sins, repent and refrain from such sins, then receive baptism. Thereafter such a person is washed clean and free from all judgement in heaven and on earth.

If you know you have committed too many sins and cannot bear the burden of them any longer, take refuge in our Lord Jesus Christ. This could only be done through repentance, refraining from and abhorring sins. After this, you will have to accept baptism as administered in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. No prayer or fasting could save you without the above stated method. This is confirmed by the words of our Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in St. Matthew 11: 28 “Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”.

Most people in various denominations baptized converts with the least opportunity. This should not be so. In Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, for instance, I did not baptize any person from 1956 to 1957. It was just a month to our departure to 26 Mbukpa that I started baptizing people. This was because; I did not want to baptize just anybody – those who do not believe in our Lord Jesus Christ. The first sets of converts were baptized about end of July 1958 to August of the same year. On this note therefore, no baptism should be administered to any person who has not believed in God; does not know what is sin and cannot accept having ever committed any. Before 1958, all the people who came for prayers and to attend services, had had to denounce their various churches, cults, secret societies and other sources of power they believed in. How then could I have baptized such people? It was at 26 Mbukpa Road, Calabar that some people started discarding their rings, bangles, charms and amulets. If God did not apply His great wisdom, He would not have had any follower on earth. At that time, I could not place My hand on people’s head for any reason if they could not confess all their sins.
If you had begrudged any person, you had to go first to make peace before I could pray for you. At that time, whoever did not denounce his or her charms and cults, I did not pray for such a person.

THE GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
The spirit, blood and water move and work in unison. Most people in the prison yard and those in different precarious situations are being disturbed by the Holy Spirit. If the Holy Spirit is in you, you will be punished of any sin you commit; and if you continue in sin, your end is death. In this wise therefore, once a sick person confesses all his sins truly and repents wholeheartedly, all his sicknesses will vanish completely.
Many people are plagued with various problems. The cause of their mishaps could be traced to the fact that they are not baptized. This fact could be confirmed in Acts 2: 38 where Peter advised the men of Judea during Pentecost to “repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost”. Similarly, any person who does not possess the Holy Spirit must be baptized. So that he may receive it. The churches do not possess the Holy Spirit, yet they claim to be God’s children who are serving Him. How can you be a child of God or serve Him without the Holy Spirit? Those who must serve God satisfactorily must serve Him in Spirit and in truth. (St. John 4: 24)

Most people say they do not want spiritual church, but they crave for the ‘real church’ or what they call orthodox churches. Consequently, you can see their failure and perdition and how they die daily. As you go about praying for people and giving them money and other gifts, can such things save them? Though you may buy a car, a house or other things to a person or even train him in the university, he cannot receive salvation unless he confesses, repents and be baptized as is done in Brotherhood. Someone may pray for another and all his sickness, poverty and his hardship vanish but if he does not possess the Holy Spirit, he is not saved. It was for this reason that our Lord Jesus Christ commissioned His disciples to go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost…’ (St. Matthew 28: 19-20). Therefore, anyone who realizes his or her sins and repents and gets baptized is saved and will be free from any judgement. On the other hand, he that feels he or she has no cause for repentance and subsequent baptism is condemned and nothing can save him. If he likes, he may distribute all his wealth to the poor and be charitable to all, at the end he must perish because he believes not in God.

The gateway to this Kingdom is by confession, repenting and refraining from all sins and then baptism (by immersion). As you emerge from the water, you have received the Holy Spirit. If anybody had not confessed repented and refrained from all his former vices and evil ways do not baptize him. If you do, it will be of no use, because the new spirit will be at war with his ‘customers’ (sins). He therefore, will not stand fast in faith to God. From today, if any person desires to be baptized, ask him or her to confess about all his cults, secret societies, different sources of power and wealth. In other words, all his sins must be confessed before you baptize him. On the contrary, all those who realize their sinfulness and seek for baptism should be baptized. Do not beg or plead with any person to accept baptism. The first lesson below emphasizes on this point.

1st Lesson: St. Mark 16: 16
“He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned”.

HOLY SPIRIT IS RECEIVED THROUGH BAPTISM
Our Lord Jesus Christ died because of our sins. If you realize that you are a sinner and believe in the fact that confession, repentance, refraining from all your sins and then baptism (by immersion) is the only way to Him, He will never disappoint you. For those who claim to have been baptized somewhere and that one does not baptize twice, leave them alone for judgement shall be against them. When you read in the Bible that the children of God will judge the world this is that judgement. Read 1 Corinthians 6: 1-5.

The baptism of John the Baptist signified repentance; so that people may believe in our Lord Jesus Christ. This baptism was also for the remittance of sins. Did you know that this is judgement and that any person who has no cause for repentance and baptism is condemned? It is said that ‘they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts’. (Galatians 5: 24). This can only be achieved through confession, repentance and finally, baptism. When once you are dipped into the water, all your charms, juju, evil desires and lust, die completely. Nothing rules over you apart from the Holy Spirit.
When the churches fast, they do it between 6 am to 8 am actively. Beyond 9am to 10am many will fume. By 12 noon, food is kept all round so that they will eat and live. They cannot fast effectively for long because they have not crucified the flesh. They therefore, had not received the Holy Spirit, which could have empowered them to fast.
The entire world is still in the flesh. Whenever the Holy Spirit has taken dominion in your body, no power can either threaten or push you about. When any power or force hits at you, it breaks and cannot penetrate; for a local axiom has it that, ‘two cocks cannot crow on the same roof’. Similarly, the Holy Spirit and elementary (evil) spirits cannot stay in the same temple. That is why people change from bad to good and good to better and finally to best when they baptize and keep to the tenets of Brotherhood as taught by the Supernatural Teacher.

All the powers and forces in the entire universe put together cannot remove any child of God from Brotherhood. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is an unshakable Kingdom. The moment you are baptized, you become one solid being having been possessed by the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit alone that controls your actions and operations. From the day you accept Him, all your problems are gone and there is no judgement for you. Do not be afraid of either death or any power.
When people say that a Brotherhood member is poisoned, charmed or shot with a gun, I normally conclude that such a person is not a true member of this fold. No weapon can kill a member of Brotherhood (BCS), whether spiritual, physical or otherwise. He/she is above destruction. Remember the promise of our master and Lord Jesus Christ that those who believe and be baptized shall not be hurt by anything whatsoever. (Mark 16: 16-18). If you know that you are not really baptized, go immediately for baptism so that you may no longer be in fears. It is out of mercy that the Holy Spirit is changing the entire humanity from evil to good. He who does not experience this transformation cannot know the difference between good and bad. This is because, under the influence of evil spirit, murder is not a sin, likewise charms and amulets. Those who indulge in these things believe that it is a way of protecting oneself. However, let it be known that there is no salvation in any other place in the entire universe. You have read that we were shaped in iniquity and in sin did our mothers conceived us (Psalm 51: 5). Consequently, from the first man, Adam till now, we have all sinned and has fallen short of this Kingdom. God, the merciful Father knows this and so He opened the only available channel. This channel is this baptism, which procedure had earlier been explained.

He who continues to pray for money and wealth should stop seeking for such things, but for his salvation. The government, your parents nor other power or person cannot help you. You cannot help yourself either, because we have all been clothed with sins. Only our Lord Jesus Christ could help us through the above stated method. Forgo everything you know that God will not be glorified so that you may be able to please Him. God does not want anyone to perish, that is why He has opened this way unto the entire world. NO other baptism can forgive and remit your sins. You can be a worshipper in any church denomination, but first come here and be baptized into the proper way, so that your sins will be forgiven and remitted. Only the Almighty God can forgive the sins of any man or human being. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the real Kingdom of God, where the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit (the Trinity God) dwell. NO angel can forgive or remit your sins. If the Almighty God forgives your sins, no other person can judge you again and you will be free forever. This is not because of your good qualities but through His grace.
Formerly, when I tell members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star that they were with the Holy Father, they had always been left with little doubts. They doubted the possibility of any person staying with the Holy Being. However, today the scales have fallen out of their eyes and they have seen the truth of the issue. The songs rendered here and all wonderful testimonies you give in this place are not heard in any other organization. The sins you have refrained from, are those, which the world enjoyed most. The type of life you live, people outside may regard you as a fool for not leaving Brotherhood to work for money and other mundane wealth. Little did they know that here, you have seen what the world have never seen; and that where you are, is the Kingdom of God. You cannot be snatched out by anybody.
As a member of Brotherhood, you have ‘put on Christ’, though the world accuses you for worshipping a man. They also say that you have been given something, which protects you wherever you may be. This is true. You have been given what is not in the world, because you have been freed from judgement. Consequently, our Lord Jesus Christ had taken dominion in your body, and so, you are defeating all powers of death, poverty, sickness or lamentation.
If any person prepares charm or diabolical substances so as to harm you, he or she is wasting his/her time. Whatsoever they do against you, instead of harming you, will return to them as a boomerang. That is the cause of all the sufferings amongst them. Anybody they get baptized and receive the Holy Spirit, their eyes will be opened and they will realize their former folly.

For you to administer Holy Oil or Water, prayers and visions to someone who neither believes or baptizes is a futile effort. He or she cannot be saved. There is no much time, to be wasted. Help yourself now, for the time is short. Members of Brotherhood have cause to rejoice immensely with the Father for giving them such a Kingdom and glory, which cannot be shaken, when they did not even believe in it. Consequently, there is no sighing, crying, tribulation, suffering and lamentation for them anymore. All adverse conditions have been removed from them.

When it is said that the Kingdom of the world has become that of God and His Christ, you are the ones being referred to. Formerly, you were idol worshippers but today, you are a Brotherhood member enjoying the full protection of the Almighty God. This is because from the very day you believed and got baptized, you had received the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the Kingdom of this world has become that of the Almighty God and His Christ. A true child of God in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star serves God 24 hours without any complaint. Those of the world cannot stay up one night without complaint.
It is said; ‘fear not them, which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul; but rather fear Him, who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell’. (Matthew 10: 28). Today, all members of Brotherhood are free from the above warning because they are not under any law. Nothing can kill you anymore. It is very pathetic to see a Brotherhood member going to a necromancer, juju doctor, or taking any form of medication. This is because, Christ having taken possession of you, no other power works in you. If you are involved in any diabolical practices against any person, it cannot be effective. It should be known that, you are not what you think you are. All Brotherhood members are not just human beings; they are ‘SPIRITS’. It is this ‘spirit’ that does all things. You are only a witness to the work of the Holy Spirit. Any person that points an accusing finger at you does so to our Lord Jesus Christ. To prove this, if you go back to eat the former food, which you discarded, you will not be comfortable. Thus, the choice of food to be taken is the entire prerogative of the Holy Spirit indwelling him. Be rest assured that you are in the New World and in the Kingdom of God. You are therefore, free to go about preaching, singing and testifying about it. Read the second lesson again:

Second Lesson: Acts 2: 38-39
“Then Peter said unto them, repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children and to all that are afar off, even as many as Lord our God shall call’.

THE NEED FOR REPENTANCE
The above lesson is applicable to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. As earlier been stated: the baptism of John was for repentance, while that of Brotherhood is for forgiveness and remittance of sins. I thank God for the baptism of John the Baptist, because it brought man to the knowledge of the true God. Through his baptism, people believed in our Lord Jesus Christ. After the baptism of remittance of sins, the Holy Spirit is given to such a believer. In fact, this promise has been made manifest in the children of Brotherhood. Whoever baptizes you, be he a child or an adult as long as he is a baptized Brotherhood, your sins are remitted. However, if any other person who is not in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star administers the baptism, it changes to that of repentance. Every other baptism in the world is undertaken for repentance, so that those who accept such baptisms may believe in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star as the New Kingdom of God.
Simon Peter was baptized seven times before he met our Lord Jesus Christ. If he had not received the baptism of John, he would not have known our Lord Jesus Christ. After the era of our Lord Jesus Christ, I have not seen or heard of anybody, who truly baptized people for the remission of his/her sins, every person seems to be baptized so that their problems may vanish. Henceforth, let it be known that if you force someone, by much persuasion to be baptized, it means that you are the one who had accepted the baptism and not the person.

The best thing to do is to preach the word of God to someone. When the person listens and by what he hears, asks how he/she can be saved, you then have the chance to inform him to confess, repent and refrain from all sins; then he will be baptized. Let him know that after the baptism, he will receive the Holy Spirit. Consequently, if he believes, and accepts baptism, he is saved. Somebody who is entangled in so many secret societies and cults, and who is deeply involved in traditional medicine and occultism may become bored about his situation. If he comes to you to know what he may do to be saved, you can tell him that, unless he forgoes all those former entanglements, repents and be baptized, he cannot receive salvation. If he believes and baptizes his sins will be remitted and he will be saved.
A Brotherhood member is not expected to sue somebody no matter the offence. He is not supposed to kill. He must not be a liar, fornicator, adulterer, idolater or quarrelsome. A Brotherhood member must not be an immoral person or laden with iniquities. In those days, if you have a case pending in the court, you will not be prayed for or baptized unless you have withdrawn the case from the court. One woman who had a land case with her brother came to Me then and I told her to forgo the land for him but she vowed that she cannot do that; and so was not baptized. She had since been transferred to the world beyond. Many other people perish in the same way. A Brotherhood member does not take any type of medication; neither does he administer such on other people. He must not initiate into any traditional custom of the world. He must not count or impute sins on others and should not bear malice. Brotherhood is the New Heaven and the New Earth where righteousness reigns.
There are two things our Lord Jesus Christ holds and ready to give free to whosoever merits them. If any person confess his sins, He will first wash the person clean and also give him the Holy Spirit. Take note of the fact that, people from all races have committed various and numerous sins. Read Romans 3: 9-10. However, Brotherhood of the Cross and Star has been established so that these sins may be remitted.

Brotherhood is love, peace and goodness. The forgiveness and remittance does not stop with the sins of this generation. It covers the sins of different generations such as those committed in the era of Adam, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Melchisedec among others, and other generations yet unborn. Do not direct any person to Calabar, Biakpan, or give any person Holy Oil or Water. Rather, when they ask how they could gain salvation, tell them to confess all their sins, repent and refrain from such sins, and then receive baptism. This is the only sure way to salvation. Do not hearken to those who are out to deceive you, that they will give you ‘spirit’ at the bank of the water, in the forest, hills or mountains. Come to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and receive the Holy Spirit, free. The spirits you receive in any other place are elementary which later turns to destroy you.
A lot of people have problems in this Kingdom because they have refused to forsake their former cults and secret societies. This group of people could be likened unto a man sent away his old
Wife to marry a new one. After a short while, he rented a house outside the matrimonial home for the old wife. He secretly goes to the old wife; sleeps and eats with her. Gradually, the old one draws nearer until she comes back to the home. Immediately she enters the home again, trouble sparks and the entire family becomes disorganized. This is how some members of Brotherhood go back to their former societies, which they had earlier abandoned. One of our brothers from Trinidad who said he was a member of 36 secret societies for instance had gone back to them. Such people are bound to have problems, for “no man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment…” St. Matthew 9: 16-17.

The memorandum of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star makes it clear that a Brotherhood member has no association with the world. Similarly, the Holy Spirit has nothing to do with weeping, lamentation, fornication, murder, wars, and all manners of sin. The Holy Spirit brought peace because He is the King of Peace. He also brought joy and everlasting life to mankind. Any Brotherhood member who does not possess the Holy Spirit is an unbeliever. Such members are faithless. Faith cometh by hearing the words of God. Give people the words of God and they will ask you what to do in order to attain salvation. That was what happened to the Ethiopian Eunuch. Read Acts 8: 26-38. Immediately he baptized, all the Eunuch’s sins were forgiven and he received the Holy Spirit. Accordingly, whoever rejects baptism, his sins will ever be on him in this generation and the one to come.
This is the last chance given to all children of God to practice love, humility, charity, patience and all virtues of godliness. Our Lord Jesus Christ said ‘if ye love me, keep my commandments; and I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another comforter, that He may abide with you forever. Even the spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him; but you know Him, for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. (John 14: 15-17). Accordingly, the Holy Spirit is the one doing all the great works in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.
Formerly, the world claimed that Brotherhood’s leadership is satanic. Now, they have seen love, righteousness, peace, patience, meekness, joy and holiness in the Leader himself, and their eyes are now opened. This is because if Satan can have true love, righteousness, holiness and all virtues of godliness, then it ceases to be Satan but God. Read the golden text again:
Golden text: St. John 3: 5
“Jesus answered, verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God”.

THE NECESSITY OF SPIRITUAL REBIRTH
In order to gain entry into the Kingdom of God, you must crucify the body and its lusts for you cannot serve God and Satan at the same time. You must forsake all sins, repent and be baptized; then you become a newborn child in the Spirit. The children of the world cannot do any good because they will be directed by one mind; to do good and the other takes the opposite stand. They end up doing the wrong thing, which is evil. On the contrary, Brotherhood of the Cross and Star believes in good deeds. There is peace, love, meekness, righteousness, joy and all godly virtues expressed by only one individual. That is why they usually comment that all Brotherhood have one voice.
Our Lord Jesus Christ has fulfilled His promise as stated in John 14: 15-16. That comforter is now with us. We therefore have nothing to worry about. We all live unto God and not to the world. We have nothing in common with the world. What we do is help the world, just to fulfill the principles of love, which is in us. The Holy Spirit has already revealed that any person who has any type of charms or diabolical substances should throw them away. Do not keep any such things in your house. The Holy Spirit is the force that is doing all things in this Kingdom. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER.

“BE LIKE GOD, FOR YOU ARE MINI GODS”

1ST LESSON: ST JOHN 10: 34
“Jesus answered, Is it not written in your law, I SAID, YE ARE GODS”

2ND LESSON: ROMANS 8: 16
“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our Spirit that we are the children of God”

GOLDEN TEXT: ST. JOHN 10: 35-36
“If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scriptures cannot be broken; Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, thou blasphemest; because I said. I am the Son of God?”

BE LIKE GOD, FOR YOU ARE MINI-GODS
Brethren, open all your ears, your intellects, to imbibe this gospel. And the Father has already endowed you with the ability to understand these unique teachings and the recondite wisdom of truth. I implore every person to listen with attention. This recondite wisdom of truth is going to be proved mathematically to you as geometry and algebra. This gospel is going to bring to nothing the wisdom of wise, prudent, the great scientists and the philosophers. Therefore, it is imperative that you all open your minds and receive this gospel. The first question is do you believe in what is written in Genesis to Revelation in their totality? I need an answer? If you believe what is written in the Holy Bible, do you believe in what is written in Psalm 82: 6-7
“I have said, ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High, but ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.” That is what you are supposed to keep in mind always. Was it not written that ye are Gods? You often deny the veritable truth that man is God. The question is, if man is not God, what is he? Did God not create man in His image and likeness? I therefore stand here in the highest heavens to proclaim and affirm that you are Gods.

YOU ARE THE LITTLE GODS
When it is said there are Gods of the Heaven and Gods of the earth, we are all the Gods of the Heavens and Gods of the earth. Although you are the minor Gods, God is God; the size and form makes no difference. That is why God Himself, even the Spirit bears witness that we are the children of God: But the record should be put straight that you are not the Father, the Lord or the King. We have only one Father and one Lord. But you are of God and sons of the Living God. So you are little Gods. This has to be revealed to you, and it had been said and has been prophesied that this generation shall not pass away until these words are consummated. Therefore whenever you see a man, you are seeing God. And that is why wherever you see a man, that is God in His self-reflection.

WHAT YOU DO TO MAN IS DONE TO GOD
Whenever you call man God, you do not make any mistake in doing so. There is no better name you should call a man than God. It stands to reason therefore to reveal to you that whenever you commit any act of evil against your fellow man, you are directly doing it to God. If you think you are fighting with a man, you are making a great mistake, you are fighting against God. If you steal another man’s property, kill him, fornicate with his wife or children you are offending God. If you treat a man badly, hate him, disgrace him or abuse him, you are offending God. If you wage any war against man, you are directly waging war against God. If you curse or calumniate against any man, you are doing it to God. If you refuse to help a man, you have also refused to help God. If you manipulate a man or be crafty to any person, you are doing that to God. If you ill-treat or frustrate a man, you are doing the same thing to God.
If you are charitable to a man or love him, you are doing so to God. Therefore do not waste time gazing at the sky in the vain hope of seeing Jesus the Christ come back. Because, after all you are all Gods. Why you are God in the plurality is that you are the minor Gods. Each man is a small God. He is just like mother goat who gives birth to young ones. Are the young ones not still goats? It is just like a person who marries a wife, and she later delivers a bouncing baby; will you then say that because the new born baby is a child, he is not a human being? That is the fundamental situation that is comparable to the supreme God and the little Gods.
That is why you are asked to “love one another even as I have loved you”. And He goes on to say “I was hungry, and you gave me food, I was naked, and you gave me clothes, I was in the hospital, and you paid me a visit. I was in the prison yard and you came to console and comfort me”. And you will ask, “Master, when were you hungry and I gave food to eat, naked and I clothed you and visited you in the hospital or prison custody?” And He will answer and say, “Once you did this to any of your brethren, you were directly doing it for me”.

THOUGH MORTAL, YE ARE STILL GODS
What is man, My dear brethren, tell Me what man is? I am challenging the whole world to tell Me what a man is, if he is any other being than God. What is it that a man is not capable of doing? Our Lord Jesus Christ had said that a son can not do anything except that which His Father has asked Him to do. God had authorised man to rule over all other creations including fishes in water, birds of the air, animals in the bush, the moon, sun, star, fire, water, trees and everything. Man has been given the mandate to oversee everything; he rules and lords over them all. Man ate of the fruits of the tree of the middle of the garden and became as wise as God. When God saw that man has become as wise as Himself, He ordered that he should be driven out of the Garden of Eden so that he should not further worsen the situation by eating the tree of eternal life. Had man eaten this fruit of eternal life, man would have been immortal. But because he was driven out, man remains mortal.
That is why Psalm 82: 6-7 say, “But ye shall however die like a man or fall as the princes. Therefore if you die today that does diminish the fact that you are a mini-God. The erroneous concept held by a number of people should be disregarded. (And this gospel’s message should be delivered to the Father today by all means). It is idle to keep on insisting that man cannot be God. What of the portions of the Holy Bible, we are treating now? Have you forgotten about it? Therefore it is true that man is God, and whoever contests this truth will see the fire of God’s wrath burning on his head.

GOD IS IN HIS ELEMENT WHEN HE TAKES HUMAN FORM
It is then senseless to say that God should not come physically to dwell with man on earth. It is self-defeating to hold unto this misleading idea that God cannot be in the form of man. You keep on bothering yourselves about all these elementary and childish ideas concerning God. That is why dear brethren, it is clearly stated in the Holy Bible that whoever does not love, is in darkness. And if you do not love your fellow man, how can you love God whom you cannot physically see. It is high time that you stop that foolishness. I wonder how to make you accept without any doubt that man is God. The only thing that can perturb man is the shame and disgrace that man has all the time been subjected to, once he is of God. Yes it is man’s inability to bear such hardship and humiliation. Yet man is a mini-God in reality, and also the image of the living God. So always bear this in mind that whatever you do to men you are doing to God.

CHIPS OF A BLOCK OF GOLD ARE GOLD
Brethren, that is why the Father has given the teachings on equality to support the fact that any evil done to another person is done to God and done to yourself. We are all the children of God. For example if you cut off small portion from gold and use in making bangles, earrings, or finger rings, gold will still remain gold, no matter into what shape it has been committed. So you are chips of God. Therefore whatever good thing you do, you are doing it for God, and also to yourself. Meanwhile, when you know the truth, the truth shall set you free. As soon as you come to the realization that man is God, you will no longer commit any evil against any person. You will no longer do any vicious act against any fellow man. And eventually you will stay in love with your fellow man.
Meanwhile, if you visit a strange place, which is fully electrified, with good roads and other modern infrastructures, but there is no single individual, what will you do there? If you dream and you happen to see a strange city which is without people, what will you tell people when you wake up from sleep? But on the other hand, if you see a man in your dream with long beard, seated in a kingly throne, with all his paraphernalia, and he tells you in a deep voice, I am God, when you wake up the following morning, you will tell people that you have seen God. I do not mean to manipulate you, henceforth, if any person says that he is not God, you should tell him “man you do not know thyself”. That is why I do not hate, or cheat you nor am I being cunning to you. I love and so extend My expression of love to all of you because I know that you are part and parcel of God Almighty.

BUT THERE IS ONE ALMIGHTY GOD – OUR FATHER
As it is recorded in St. Matthew 23: 7-10, Our Lord Jesus Christ has said that you shall call no man Rabbi, for one is your master, even Jesus the Christ and all of you are brethren. You should call no man Father upon the earth, for one is your Father which is in Heaven, neither call you any person master or teacher for only one is your master and teacher even Jesus the Christ.
We have only one Almighty Father and one Almighty Lord and King who owns the universe and us. We cannot exist alone. We are just like the branches of the tree. Does it mean that if a person has one thousand children, the children are no longer his own because they are too many? Or will you say that we are also not the children of the founder of this earth because His children are rather too numerous? Therefore that kind of foolish reasoning should stop forthwith. This gospel shall be written, and published for distribution to the entire world. You should also help in giving out copies to people who dare to contend with you on the fact of man being God in reality. Those who refuse to believe are unfortunate. The word of God cannot come out for nothing. Its intent and purpose must always be fulfilled. If you are not God, what are you? Where do you come from? Gold could be used to manufacture any jewelry, gold-ring, gold bangles, gold earrings and necklaces. Turn gold into anything, gold will still be gold. So God remains God even though we call the outcome by the word man. Let our 1st lesson be read, as I do not want to belabour you:

1st Lesson: St. John 10: 34
“Jesus answered, Is it not written in your law, I SAID YE ARE GODS”.
You claim that you believe in the words of the Holy Bible, why do you not believe that man is God? I believe very firmly that whenever you hate a man, you automatically hate God. When you see a man, you are seeing God. Man is the temple and the house of God. Man is the farm or the vineyard of God. If there is something that can make you to come to the realization of yourself, it should be this unique gospel given to you. Today, therefore, whatever good you do to a man, you are doing it for God.

THE EVIL YOU DO TO OTHERS BEFALLS YOU
When you come to this recondite wisdom, you will not hate, backbite, cause division, fight, cheat or fornicate. Our Lord Jesus Christ used His precious blood to atone for our numerous sins and to unite us together. Those who have come to this consciousness cannot create a situation whereby they build tin gods to lord it over others.
There is nothing very effective or meaningful, that an individual can do of his own. We should not allow the blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ to be in vain, this blood He has shed to unite humanity together. The only unifying force, which can withstand the test of time is love. The limit which, Adam could reach was where his wisdom stopped. If he had come to the wisdom that God is dwelling in man, he would not have done what he did. You are witnesses to the fact that when a child is born, you have to groom the child to grow up to be a useful individual. But while the child grows, you will not be conscious of his growth. If man had realized himself he would not have stolen, taken drugs, kill, fornicate or hate his fellow man. But the wisdom eluded him because he does not know himself and does not have enduring patience.

WE ARE GODS WHEN WE ATTAIN PURITY
The ten commandments were brought by Moses for the guidance of man. One of them says that “You should have no other God besides Me”. The sum total of it all is that you should purify yourself. Then all the vices such as fornication, backbite, murder, should be refrained from, and it is in this state of absolute purity we can realize ourselves as Gods. God and the Spirit of God in us bears witness with our spirit that we are God and children of the living God. The emphasis is laid on “the spirit in us”. If you say that you are not God, what are you? The Lord God wants all things to be under the supreme Lord and King. We have spirits in us which witness with another that we are God’s children. The Father is the one who owns everything and us, and Jesus Christ is the Lord of Lords, and the King of Kings.

WHEN YOU FEED THE HUNGRY AND GIVE AIDS TO THE POOR YOU ARE DOING IT FOR GOD
Brethren, I do not say things with the intent of tricking you. When did God stay hungry, or when was He thirsty and so on? So when God says “when I was hungry”, it means “when man was hungry”. Therefore whatever you do unto man, you are doing it to God. And in doing good you are directly glorifying God. The so called wisdom of man, has been exposed as zero, because if he had so much wisdom he could have known that when you help another man, you are helping yourself and God also. After all man does not even know the number of strands of hair on his head. It is only God alone who can accord any person the ability to do anything. Although man is God, yet he is not the Father or the Lord and King. It will be recalled that the interpreter, Bro. Essien wrote a book of which the chief physiologist in the University became very critical. Although he agreed with what Dr. Essien the interpreter wrote on the concept of vegetarianism was true, and that the eating of fish and meat should be stopped, but he said this was a secret to be hidden away from the general public in the interest of the profession. He failed to realise the health hazard and the overall interest of the masses who have in one way or the other met their death because of professional self interest.

I am happy whenever there is the Elder’s Week, the Father uses it to reveal much recondite wisdom of God. For instance you may call your God to come and help you; and eventually a man comes to render you some help, and you call upon a man to come and help you, but God comes to your aid. You can see that even in a small child, there is that semblance of God in him. If you do something for your fellow man, you are in effect doing it for God.
This could be likened to a situation where people are playing in a pool of water and one of them continue to dive into and out of the water asking the rest to find him. As he continues to dive in and out of the water, he may finally disappear from their sight. The on-lookers may think that the swimmer is drowned inside the water, because they do not see him. But suddenly the man they supposed to have got lost in the water emerge to the surprise of the on-lookers. He is the same person. Does these things not happen in this way? This reveals that God is with men, hiding in their midst. But have you seen him? The same God lives in you. You are the vineyard, house; you are God’s sheep; you are His vineyard, you are God’s city, you are man and you are spirit. Even as the spirit has confessed that ye are Gods, but do you believe this? You are not conscious of the God in you because you do not know yourself: even from the hair of your head down to the toes of your feet. No man can do anything of himself except the ability to do so comes from the Father.

If the Father does not give you the ability you cannot know anything about God. I again referred to the case where the Father used the interpreter to publish a book sometime ago, on the medical aspects of vegetarianism. The book circulated around the medical college of the University. But the chief Physiologist became infuriated with the contents of this book. He was annoyed not because the book contents is untrue, but because his view was that, he should not have revealed this secret to the public. Because that is only restricted to the medical profession, which is not exposed to students who take it as a course in the medical school. The interpreter was almost expelled. But in the heat of the crisis, the Holy Father appeared on the television and preached a sermon on the concept of vegetarianism to the whole nation and the world. This sermon of the Father was universally accepted and this interpreter was freed.
At the end of it all, it became clear that what the Father used the interpreter to write was the truth with the full backing of the Holy Spirit. And so this is what is happening today. If the Father does not give you ability to know that you are gods, you can never know, let alone accept the fact that you are gods. That is why when God pass through someone to help you, and some one else tells you that it is God who renders the help to you, you doubt it. You will wonder how come it is God? But if man is not God, what then is man? Think of a situation when you conceive a plan to deceive another person and immediately this your evil thoughts and plan interacts with the mind of that particular person. He would make plans to deceive you also. And eventually as you succeed in deceiving him, each rejoices that he has deceived the other. Both of you are fools. This reveals that any evil plan that you conceive and eventually do to any person, you are thinking and doing same to yourself. That is why Our Lord Jesus Christ say “any city divided against itself cannot stand; and any kingdom divided against itself stands desolate and is bound to fall”.

The main reason why Christ shed the blood was to unite all men together. And once the blood was shed, this unity of all the children of God had been achieved. Every person has been united unto the Father. And there is only one Father, one Lord and one King. He is an indivisible whole. The entire earth is also but under the control of man, including the water, fishes, animals, birds, trees and all other created things are subjected unto man to rule over. If all these things are subjected under your rulership, why do you still say, that you are not God? If you are not God, what else are you? Blindness is a bad sickness and Our Lord Jesus Christ knew this quite well. That is why for merely saying that “I and the Father are one” He was killed. What if He had said openly He was God, don’t you think that they would have killed Him earlier? Because of man’s blindness, Our Lord Jesus Christ implored us to love our enemies, pray for those who persecute, ridicule and say all manner of bad things against us the children of God so that we might resemble our heavenly Father, for He makes the sun to shine on the just and the unjust and sendeth rain to both good and bad people. We should be perfect as our Father is perfect. This confirms that we have one and same God. That we should love one another as the Father loved us. This clearly indicates that when you slap a man, you are directly slapping God; whenever you tell lies to a man, you have told lies to God. If you had known this, you would not have carried out any evil plan against any man. For it is said any kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.

MAN AND GOD AS INSEPARABLE AS FLESH AND BLOOD
The cause of evil, hardships and untold sufferings, prevalent in the world is because every man plans against his fellow human being. And because of this the Kingdom of the world has fallen, never to rise again. No progress or prosperity, but adversity all round. Had you known this, who would have killed his fellow human being knowing that the man is God? Who would have arrested his fellow man or count sin against any person? You would not have done that if you had this recondite wisdom that anything you do unto man, you are doing same directly unto God.
You can see God even in the sands of the soil, in the water, trees, animals, man and all creation. That is why if you look at a man, you should be afraid to talk to him. You should dread him, because of the God in him. If you are afraid of doing evil to mere man, so much more if it be to God Himself.
You can recall vividly the story of Shylock and Anthonio in Shakespeare’s Merchant of Venice. It was an agreement between Shylock and Anthonio that if Anthonio would not repay the debt he owed Shylock, within the given period, Shylock would accept no other compensation whatsoever, but a pound of flesh from nearer Anthonio’s heart. As the case proceeded, the wife of Anthonio used the technicality of the law profession and accepted the evidence of the case, that Anthonio must pay for his debts. Shylock was given the knife to cut out the pound of flesh from nearer Anthony’s heart, but provided that no blood should drop down in the process. How can this be: it was impossible for Shylock to cut the pound of flesh from Anthonio’s chest without any blood so also you cannot separate God from man. That is why Christ said let the wheats and the tares grow together until the harvest when the wheats will be gathered into the barn and the tares set on fire. But now you have resisted the will of God, there is no way you can kill a man without killing God; and there is no way you can tell lies to a man without telling same lies to God. Whatever you do unto a man whether in thought and/or in deed you do same unto God. This is why Our Lord Jesus Christ said let the wheats and the tares together grow until the harvest, but today you don’t allow the will of God to take place. You that argue, debate and be a Thomas. Listen to the second lesson:

2nd Lesson: St. John 8: 16
“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our Spirit that we are the children of God”.

Have you heard that? You are all small gods, you are not the Father, you are not the Lord, and you are not the King. For the Gospel itself bears witness with our spirits that we are gods. Do not be deceived by the phraseology. The expression that ye are children of God means that ye are the smaller gods. But if you are not God who then is man? Tell Me. You can now see the cause of the downfall of the entire habitants of the world because no one person knows himself.
It is said man know thyself. If you knew that you are God, would you have done anything ungodly? You would not have told lies; committed fornication and adultery? You would not have stolen or murdered, consented to the worship of trees, stones, snakes and other aspects of idolatry, you would not have committed any ungodly act.
Remember when Our Lord Jesus Christ healed a person on a Sabbath, the Pharisees accused Him of disrespecting the Holy Sabbath. But He told them My Father worketh, hitherto I work. That a son cannot do anything unless that which he sees his father doing. That is why He said “I am the way, the truth and the life, that no man come unto the Father but by Me. I am the vine and My Father is the vine dresser”. So we are the branches. As long as the branches cannot produce any fruits independently of the tree, so we cannot do any good thing unless we are part of the Father.

The problem with the entire world is that we do not know ourselves; we do not know ourselves to be any good. And because we do not know ourselves we do not also know that Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and Saviour, we stay like sheep without a shepherd.
The word of God has made it clear to us that we are the temple of the most High God. It is the Spirit of God, which dwells in us. The Holy Spirit dwelling in us is responsible for all these good works we do. He takes us to many places to perform various wonderful works. We should never feel that these works are done by ourselves. These works are performed by the Holy Spirit. We are just His tools and witnesses to these wonderful works done by the Holy Sprit.
That is why when you are directed by the Spirit to reveal to a person that she is a witch, she wonders how you come to know that she is a witch. She will say that you must be a witch also to be able to know her as a witch. When God speaks the words, which pass through your mouth to other people, such spoken words often come to fulfillment. The people will become afraid of you. And would ask you to go away with your witchery. This is so because the word you have spoken have become manifest. The God in you has been using you to travel and say things to the people and your words always come true. All these point out to the fact that you are gods. But with all these things, did you ever know, let alone accept the fact that you are gods?
The expatiation “The Father” connotes the supreme being. And from Him all the creation take their existence. The expression Lord and King connotes Our Lord Jesus Christ, who had been appointed to oversee all the creation of God. Now if five people are chosen and sent on a trip, it is customary to appoint one of them as the leader or head of the group. He is still a man. There has always been a head of group. The other members of the group are not different, in any way, from the leader of the group. The group, the body remains one, leader plus followers together.

That explains why Our Lord Jesus Christ told His disciples; “for I have not yet ascended to My Father, your Father, My God and your God, therefore, touch Me not”. And He said “if you know what this means” you would rejoice indeed because I tell you, I go to My Father who is greater than Myself”. What does that greatness mean? That indicates the bigger Father (God). So the Almighty God has SWALLOWED up all other gods. But the fact that we (the smaller gods) have been swallowed up by the Almighty God does not in any way deprive us from being Gods. We still maintain our position as mini-gods.
All those who are involved in the successful production of this gospel, the blessing due to them can better be imagined than described. Now the scales have fallen off your eyes and the wax removed from your ears and your stone-heart made soft and you will realize that all the bullying of people, boxing one another, dehumanising people and all other atrocities committed against man are against God. It has become clear to you that anything whatsoever you do to any man you do directly to God. Right here in our midst there are some people who have perceived some evil thoughts against other people. My children since you have been exposed to this recondite wisdom of truth, all those negative thoughts in your minds have been discarded. You would henceforth think well of every person.
Right now, we are the sons of the Most High God. However we have only one Almighty God, one Lord and one King, this is what has left people wondering why the one and only God should be present in you, in Me, in every other person. This only shows that they are not convinced on the omnipresence attribute of God. The truth is that we have one God Almighty and we are the mini-gods. Thus, oneness of God with all His creations is inevitable. With Him there is no division, no class distinction. Your position and status in life cannot alter this oneness whether you are a child or adult, a male, or female, whether you are poor or you are rich. It has nothing to do with this conception of oneness and equality.
We are all small gods, sons of the Most High God. This one and only God is the one present in us all. There is only one God and one Son of God, but when you add together all these smaller gods, they constitute Jehovah God and His Christ; which is just one God. The Father, God and the Holy Spirit are but one God. The Father is not different from the Son. The Son is not different from the Father. They created all things and thereafter the Son to rule over all the creations. The Father and the Son are one indivisible entity.

It is said that half education is dangerous. The ignorance of the fact that man is God has led many people into empty boasting that they belong to the mermaid family. What is the tree that you worship, the water, stones, animals and other creatures that you are given to worship? Are all these things not created by God and subjected to man to rule? Who is man? Man is a god. There is only one God who is present in each and every creations of God. But after God had completed all His creation, He breathed His own spirit into man, this is what makes man greater than every other creations of God. For as man has been set up, all other creatures of God have been subjected under the superintendency of man. As soon as you believe in this gospel, you have got your salvation and I believe that this gospel salvages the entire world. And whatsoever remains for the salvation of man this gospel has already completed it.

MINI-GODS MUST RESEMBLE GOD
All the teaching that you receive here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star confirm this fact. God can never tell a lie. We are Gods and therefore it becomes inevitable for you to be revealed as the Gods that you are. And therefore it becomes clear that you should no longer wage war against any person. You do not need to lie or commit murder and other atrocities. For if you fight, whom are you fighting against? If you steal, whom do you steal from? The fact is that we are just one indivisible entity with the one and only Father. It is also said in Romans 8: 19 that the whole world is anxiously expecting the revelation of the children of God.
And so now you have all been revealed as the children of God. It has also been said in 1 John 3: 2, that we are the sons of God, “it is not yet revealed what we are, but that when He shall be revealed, we shall see Him and we shall be like Him”. Is it a simple thing for anyone to tell a man not to eat fish and meat? Is it a small thing for a man to stand before the congregation and tell them not to drink? Is it a simple thing for a man to stand at the Alter and declare that man should not fornicate? Any person who dares so forbid his congregation gets into trouble even before he ends his sermon. His course would not be found, soon after he quit speaking, I ask you? Is it so simple thing for anyone to stand and declare that man is God?
Just try it and see the consequence. Even you have heard a testimony that right up there in the north, one person stood up to say something like that, people surrounded him and called the police for him. Even the government of the country would not take it kindly with anyone who would arrogate himself as being God. In Bendel State somebody proclaimed that he is God and the government of Bendel State got him locked up. They told him to stay there in the cell and tell people how he ever became God. But this one has declared and proclaimed from the highest heaven that man is God, all men are sons of God, and man is mini-god of the most High God.
Right now every person has come to the understanding of the truth that man is mini-god. Not the Almighty God, but little gods. Therefore as gods even though small, you have to resemble your Father the Almighty God. You have to resemble your Father in love, in truth, in patience, in humility, meekness and lowliness of the mind and in every other virtue. In this way you the small gods and your Father, the Almighty God would be one. That is why when the disciples of John the Baptist saw Our Lord Jesus Christ and His disciples baptising. They told John “Look the person you baptised, is now baptising other people over the Jordan”, that John should give them the authority to go and stop him (Christ and His disciples) from baptising people. But John the Baptist told them, “No one can receive anything except that is given Him from Heaven”.
It is not that Our Lord Jesus Christ did not know all these, but it was not given Him to have expounded or expantiate on the divine teachings. For it is written about Him that He should speak in parable and preserve the recondite wisdom until the Comforter the Holy Spirit comes and unfold the truth teaching and lead every man to the accurate knowledge of the truth. Therefore Our Lord Jesus Christ had to conform with the prophesy by speaking in parables. But right now the Holy Spirit has come indeed to reveal the recondite wisdom in full. Right now the scales have fallen off your eyes. You are very much aware that any person whosoever stands up to say that He is God, you will see that people will not allow him to ever go scot-free. But now I stand in the highest Heaven to declare that you are gods, sons of the Most High. And you also testify that you have seen God face to face yet nobody lay hands on us. Let our golden text be read to confirm that all the words of God will not pass away unfulfilled.

Golden Text: St. John 10: 35-36
“If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scriptures cannot be broken; Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, thou blasphemest; because I said. I am the Son of God?”

YOUR CLAIM TO BE MINI-GODS IS NO BLASPHEMY
Have you not seen how the truth has been proved? Can anyone challenge this? None, for God Himself has said in the bible that ye are Gods. What sin has a person committed if he says he is God, and that you are Gods? If you believe that you are God and every one believes that he is God, there is that tendency to avoid hatred, killing division, envy etc. Rather we shall regard ourselves as one flock under one shepherd. When you say that you are gods, you do not err. It is however blasphemous to say, you are the Father, Lord and King. Are you the Father, the Lord, the King? No. You are not.

MAN IS THE GOD OF THE EARTH
When you hear of God of heaven and God of earth, you are the gods of the earth. You are equally the salt of the earth, and as the salt of the earth, you have to sweeten things for all persons. When you hear a person exclaiming, God, come and help me, it is man who is used to give the help to that needy man. The Father is the one who owns everything, while Our Lord Jesus Christ is the one who Lords over everything. Still we are all Gods. None of us can do anything by himself unless the ability is given to such a person by the Father. And so we do everything in accordance to His injunction. For it was written “this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord, I will put My laws into their minds, and write them in their hearts, and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to Me a people. And they shall not teach 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”. Have these words not come to full manifestation today?

AS GODS, BE THEREFORE AS VIRTUOUS AS GOD
It is evident that we are the different parts of God, but we are constituted into one; that is why it is said that as soon as you come to this realisation, or recognise the fact that you are Gods, it will then be incumbent on us to do everything to resemble God. That means that you should be humble, meek, patient, merciful, truthful, loving and so on. In all aspect of your life, you have to show that you have the virtues of God in you. If you were not Gods, why should He give you the power to rule over fishes in water, birds of the air, animals in the bush, all creeping things and all His creation. And above all, why did He create you in His image. No far reaching changes will take place in us except we follow His pattern of life as God; we are duty bound to resemble Him. He will not need any other teachings about Him except the practical aspect of His life. What is the image and the likeness of God in us? They are love, joy, mercy, temperance and the rest of the heavenly virtues. Right now we should be identified by these virtues in words and practice. You are the salt of the earth and wherever you go to, you should be so identified. That is why wherever you find people with unsolvable problems such people are advised to go to Brotherhood for solution. You are all witnesses to this truth that wherever you go, you are being identified and approached as the children of God. And wherever you offer them prayers and the word of God they have peace, joy and happiness. I would further prove Biblically to you that you are gods. Hebrews 2: 8 confirms this claim as the self evident truth. It is said that blindness is a bad thing, all powers are in you, but you do not come to this realization. Hebrews 2: 8; refers:- “Thou has put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him”. It is unfortunate that you have not realized that you are the power house of God. All the powers have been given to you but you are yet to realise or utilise the power.

JEHOVAH GOD AND HIS CHRIST ARE IN FIRM CONTROL OVER ALL THINGS:
It is a fact that Jehovah God and His Christ are in control over all situations in all the planes of manifest. They have to rule and reign over everything and put everything in the divine way. We should therefore not claim superiority over any person. We should stay peacefully with one another, showing absolute expression of love to one another. That is what this Kingdom admits of, no fighting and quarreling. There is no man or woman, no young or old man, no black, white or coloured people. This Kingdom is a model of stability, joy, peace and happiness. There is no lighting of candles here, there is no beating of drums, and we don’t use incenses and perfumes. We are to pool all our resources together for the common good of all the brethren. And at the end of it all there would be joy and stability for the Father and His children. It is the responsibility of the Father to take care and to protect all His children all over the world. A child would always take care of his father where he is thankful to the Father for good done to him. And since it is the Father who takes care of all His children we therefore have to be grateful to the Holy Father.

THIS GOSPEL’S BLESSINGS ARE UNIQUE
I give thanks to the Father having released this unique gospel message to the entire world. The Father has blessed those who write this gospel, the interpreter and those who are to listen to this gospel are immensely blessed. Those who shall be associated in one way or the other in the production of this gospel for dissemination and those who shall read and put same into practical application are greatly blessed. Those who believe in this gospel, the Father has blessed them, and this gospel message above all, has brought salvation into the entire universe. We have to resemble our Father, because usually a good child resembles his Father. We have to listen to Him. We must love him and have faith and belief in Him. We have to put all our hopes on Him. We do not have to be disorderly any longer. We should not constitute ourselves into busy bodies to hinder the progress of others who are using the spirit of their daily endeavours to foster the work of the Father in the vineyard. Let us leave all judgement and vengeance in the just and powerful hands of the Father. A child does not speak in parables.
When a child kills an animal in the bush, he is the owner of the animal while in the bush, but when the animal is taken home, it belongs to his Father. When the Holy Spirit did not come, we had been disorderly and unholy in our lives; but now that the Holy Spirit has come, you have to put on godliness. You are very aware of the Spiritual song we used to sing. “Spirit of the Lord come and lead us”. It has been written that you will lead us. Henceforth we should allow the Holy Spirit to be leading us in all aspects of our lives. If the spirit directs us in all our affairs, we shall have no problems. This is just the summary of what has been done during the week set aside by the Father through the Elder’s Week. The week has been a unique one in which the recondite wisdom of God has been expatiated unto His children.

Brethren, I do not want to take you further, it is said that a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise, let those who have ears to hear, let them hear, may God bless His Holy Words. A-men.

Thank you Good Father.

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

“BEFORE HONOUR, IS HUMILITY”

1ST LESSON: JAMES 4 : 10
“Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up”.

2ND LESSON: ST. LUKE 14 : 10
“But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shall thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee”.

GOLDEN TEXT PHILLIPIANS 2 : 8-9
“And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name”.
Brethren, that is our lesson. That is what is mostly lacking amongst you. But the Father knows the different shortcomings in you and day after day, He is removing and demolishing them. If you were to humble yourself before the Lord, would you have quarreled before Me? Would you have fought before Me? Would you have murmured against any person before Me? Would you have argued before Me? All these unwholesome behaviour reveal you. If you should commit these offenses before Me, what happens behind Me? You struggle to sing songs and to offer prayers before Me. You scramble for positions before Me.

MAN’S FRAILTIES
The Father has seen your shortcoming, that is why He has chosen this night to lay bare, these shortcomings before you. There is none of you in Brotherhood who is cool-headed and humble to the other person. Even if you speak to a very small child, he will warn you not to speak to him in that manner. A wife in the house does not accept to humble herself before the husband. Similarly, the husband does not submit himself to the wife. Even a stranger in the house will claim that the house belongs to his Father, Olumba Olumba Obu and as such he will break open your bedroom and search your boxes and wardrobes to remove whatever he likes. He will claim it is Obu’s box if you dare ask him.

HUMILITY: THE FOUNDATION OF GREATNESS
The way and manner you speak one to the other, leaves much to be desired. It does not seem you have received any teachings from God. Wherever you go to, you want to sit in the forefront. Wherever you find yourself, you want to be known. Have you heard what the first lesson said? “Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and He will lift you up”. One of the most important virtues in this Kingdom is humility, because it is said before honour is humility. If you were to be humble, you would not struggle for common bread. If you were to humble yourself, you would not live a reprobate life.

ANY POSITION A MAN OCCUPIES CALLS FOR HUMILITY
Today, the Father has taught us to be humble even while walking along the streets, or in our homes, or at functions and wherever else we may be. In the matrimonial home, the husband is yours, but do not seize the privilege to do anything you like. Everybody knows that the man is your carnal father and that the woman is your carnal mother but do not boast and exalt yourself because of this. Humble yourself. Everybody knows the Father gives the car you drive to you. Humble yourself to the ground. Whether God has made you a chief, your position calls for humility. If God has appointed you a governor, humble yourself to the point of prostrating. If God has ordained you a pastor, humble yourself to the ground. If the Father has made you a Leader’s Representative or at whatever position you are kept, humble yourself in the sight of God always.

DO NOT PRAISE YOURSELF
If we can humble ourselves and not puffing up, God will lift us up. You know one spiritual chorus we have which says, “if you want to walk with me, humble yourself as a little child”. Whether you are a choirmaster or choirmistress, whatever you are, you have to humble yourself. Even if you erected the Bethel building, the money you spent in building belongs to the Father, the Bethel is built by the Father, therefore, humble yourself. Allow others to praise you, do not praise yourself.

HE WAS EXALTED BECAUSE OF HUMILITY
Brethren, the most important thing in this Kingdom of God is humility. It is a promise that those who humble themselves, God will exalt them. Have you not heard what happened to our Lord Jesus Christ? It was because of humility that God gave Him a name, which is above every name. It was not because of raising the dead that God exalted His name. It was not because of preaching the word of God in every city that God exalted His name. It was not because He made the blind to see that God exalted His name. But it was because He humbled Himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. His humility implies that when people slapped Him, He did not retaliate. When they made allegations against Him, He did not bandy words with them; and they jumped on Him, but He did not budge, to the extend that Pilate snapped at Him: “Upon all these allegations He says nothing to defend Himself”. But He kept quiet. Even when Peter cut off the right ear of the servant of the high priest, He rebuked Peter. And said, “Put up thy sword into the sheath; for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword”. He picked up the piece of ear and put it in its place. It was then that He told Peter, “Thinketh thou that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He shall presently give Me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be”? Can you see humility at work?

ALWAYS ALLOW THE WILL OF GOD TO PREVAIL
He was so humble to the point of prostrating on the ground to plead to the Father, saying, “Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from Me nevertheless not My will, but thine, be done”. Can you observe humility? He has never resisted the will of God; but in your own case, you keep certain conditions before God. That if He does not heal you of your infirmities, you will not take Him for the true God, or that He should not allow your enemies to laugh at you and ask where is that your God? Do you not realize that these things amount to vainglory? You speak unseemly against God. You speak forcefully and without the fear of God.

CALL UPON THE FATHER WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING
Remember how that Pharisee prayed with arrogance, expressing how he paid tithe of one tenth of his earnings, fasted twice a week and not like unto the evil man, the Publican. Can you see pride and pomposity in him? But the Publican could not even lift up his eyes to the sky. He placed his hands on his chest and prayed God to be merciful to him a sinner. Can you realise absolute humility at work? But in your own case, you will forcefully shout on Olumba Olumba Obu to do one thing or the other for you. What does this show? You cannot shout on your carnal friend or brother in that manner. But Olumba Olumba Obu is the name you shout on at random and even use it as threats to people along the streets.
What are these things? They signify vainglory and strife. At certain times you come out here and pray for one hour. What does it mean? Is it not pomposity? Brethren, we should strive because the things we have less regards to, are highly esteemed before God. When you are beset with a little problem or sickness, you will seek to apply medication as means of help. Is that humility? Are you not after self-help ventures? Why do you not surrender yourself completely and let the sickness carry out its intention in you. Somebody comes to abuse and curse you, and you return fire for fire. Have you humbled yourself? Have you surrendered yourself unto God? When our Lord Jesus Christ was cursed and abused, did you hear His voice?
Brethren, let us humble ourselves. You are also witnesses to the fact that upon all the allegations and blackmail, you have not heard His statement of defence. Many of you struggle for the inclusion of Brotherhood’s name in organised functions and ceremonies. Have you ever heard Me ask for such recognition? I do not want it in any way. Brethren, I do not intend to take you far, the first lesson will now be read:

1st Lesson: James 4: 10
“Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up”.

Brethren, have you heard what is read unto you? You who promised not to agree with whatever somebody says, have you heard what is read unto you? Those of you who are arrogant, have you heard that? Those of you who try to help yourselves, have you heard that? Those of you who are self-conceited, have you heard it?

LET HUMILITY OVER-RIDE YOUR OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
It is not he, who saves himself that is saved but he who surrenders his life. If per chance somebody collects your belongings in an extortionate way, you hand it over to God. If you are cursed, abused or your character defamed, if you do not retort, the Father will repay you. I have taught you that even in your families, you should not bother about anything. Take the least position, as a very sinful person. Wherever you are invited, take the least seat. Do not seek for a place on the high table but chose the lowest.
Brethren, if we practise this gospel which tells us, “humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and He will lift you up,” we will see it work like magic. Put it to test and you will realise how you will be exalted. The reason behind buying glamorous dresses, living in imposing houses and seeking for position is that you may be recognized. Have you been recognized? All this time you have been quarreling, fighting and bringing out your eyes from your socket, are you not struggling for positions? Do you have these positions? If you should know that you are ever before God, in your house and everywhere, would you not have humbled yourself before Him?

ALLOW THE WILL OF GOD TO REIGN SUPREME
This promise is an eternal covenant. You have observed it even here in Brotherhood. Have you ever heard or witnessed us saying there should be rain or that there should be no rain? It is an insult. Have you ever heard us pray that somebody should not be sick or that God should not allow our enemies to ask where is that your God? Have you heard us say that a particular thing should happen and not the other? It amounts to vainglory, pomposity and arrogance. Have you ever heard us murmur against God or questioning why He should do one thing and not the other.
What is required of us by God is absolute humility. He will not fail to lift you up if, from this day, you humble yourself and become like a fool. Even in your pattern of life, the way you speak, speak with reverence to God, and give Him glory. When you are walking, march the ground as if it belongs to somebody, for it is not yours. Even though it belongs to your Father, you ought to walk carefully. Whatever you are engaged in, do not behave as if there is nobody, because there is somebody, When you are thinking, do not be so high-minded as if you are the only cock to crow. Always think little of a thing with the mind that God is in existence, and give Him glory. When you are speaking, say nothing unseemly. Speak with gentleness and lowliness of heart, knowing that God is in existence. When you exalt yourself, He will debase you.

ONLY GOD LIFTS YOU UP
There were events in the life of our Lord Jesus Christ that would have caused Him to speak and raise His voice, but can you notice how He behaved? In the midst of tribulation and death, He left everything with humility to the Father. Whether you are the first daughter or first son and the family tends to reject you, do not bother. Do not look for the position. If your right as the first son, or second son or first daughter or as a child has been denied you, do not question. Forget about it, do not seek for recognition; God will surely remember you. It is not the person who claims to be something before God, is recommended by God. Also it is not he, who exalts himself that is being lifted up by God, but he, who humbles himself, is lifted up by God. Even if you are before a little child and he commands you to stand still, obey with respect and God will lift you up. Even if a brother abuses you and calls you names, and questions your stand in Brotherhood, say peace to him and go your way quietly. God will lift you up.

NAME ABOVE ALL OTHER NAMES
A critical examination of what happened to our Lord Jesus Christ on the cross reveals His humble nature. They jeered at Him and asked, “If you are the Son of God, come down and save yourself”. He said nothing but kept quiet. I do not think that there is any person in the world who can argue that what happened to our Lord Jesus Christ has ever happened to him. It is because of His humility, even unto death that God had highly exalted Him, and given Him a name, which is above all other name.
People had come and gone, but which of them has God exalted and given Him a name which is above every name? People preach the word of God, raise the dead, make the blind to see, the lame to walk and are generous to people, but God has not given any of them a name which is above every name. Elijah himself prayed to God that there should be no rain and for three years and six months there was no rain. Was that not vainglory or strife? After sometime he prayed that God should open the sky and God did, and there was rain. Have you been told that God gave him a name, which is above every name? Even our father Abraham, when he heard that Lot, his nephew, and his entire household were arrested by the army, he was not humbled. He rather gathered four hundred soldiers and marched to that city and liberated his nephew. Upon the shouts on our father Abraham, do you find God giving him a name above every name? It is on this basis that our Lord Jesus Christ did say, in My Father’s house there are many mansions. God can give you good health, but does not lift your name up. He can give you children but He will not lift your name up. God can bestow eternal life on you, but he will not give you a name above every name. He has diversities of gifts but the greatest gift is for Him to lift your name up. To whom does this gift belong? It does not belong to millionaires. It does not belong to preachers. It does not belong to healers. It is meant for those who humble themselves to the point of prostrating. That is why it is said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the Kingdom of God. When a person smites you, buffets you, spits on you, extorts your belongings, and you neither budge nor retort, you have the qualities of our Lord Jesus Christ. You are denied your rightful position, or whatever may be done to you, and you do not say anything, neither do you bother. These, are those whose names will be lifted up by Him. But whom amongst you will afford to sit down in his house and somebody marches in and holds people captives and beats them up without his rising up in defence? If you rise up to fight, it means you have failed colossally.

PATIENCE IN TRIBULATION
I know that many of you are sad about this gospel because when you hear people say that Brotherhood is Beelzebub, witchery, vampire, apparition, you are infuriated with such a person hoping that you are doing the work of God. The moment you do this, you have failed completely. Do you think that the Father is not the doer of all these things? He knows about them. They are meant to test us. It is said, “Blessed is he who endures temptation. I personally know that these are all tests. That is why I am what you find Me. Because from time to time, He makes known to us that there is going to be examination. That being the case, I have no problems at all. In your own case because you have neither seen nor known Him, that is why you react violently to what you hear. You are red when it is said that Brotherhood is Beelzebub and vampire. You will no longer go to the person’s house because you will feel he has offended you. Do you seek after glory? Because it is said that Brotherhood is not one of the Christian churches, you rise in anger to defend. Is that not strife? I am not interested in whatever you call Me. Whether you call it apparition or anything; I have no business in it.

THE FATHER IS A MODEL OF HUMILITY
It is said when you see the dead man tears will begin to roll down your cheeks. Now you have seen the dead man, where are tears on your cheeks? I instruct you to forsake sin, neither to tell lies, nor to fornicate, but you still commit sins and yet I always turn round to beg you not to be exasperated and not to do those things anymore. I have the full right to expel you, or excommunicate you without any redress or anything flapping its wings.
Are you not surprised that when a person steals, he will demand to be taken to the Father, that the Father may offer him tea. And of a truth, when he is taken to the Father, the Father will give him tea. The action of the Father is a mark of humility. Somebody may stand here and fight and yet you do not find Me saying a word. This shows humility. I have surrendered any action to the Father. But a foolish person will taunt that he stands before the Father to do whatever he likes and no person can do anything to him.

TO THE WORLD, THE LEADER’S APPREARANCE IS INCOGNITO
Our Lord Jesus Christ had said, “I can of mine own self do nothing; as I hear, I judge: and My judgement is just, for I know that His commandment is eternal life”. All that I do here are commensurate with the commandments found in this Kingdom of God. Have you ever found a person as great as this and yet He is neither known in the government, or in the church denominations, or in various homes. No person recognises His existence nor gives any regard to Him. A state governor would pay visit to this state and would call to see a paramount ruler or a chief. If any person visits this state, he will call at a necromancer, mermaid priest and others. Have you ever heard any person suggesting that a courtesy call should be paid to the Leader? Who is He? Who knows Him? Do you see us bother? There is no problem at all. When there is any occasion that requires the governor to attend any church services, he will attend the so-called established and orthodox churches. But for Brotherhood, they will say it is no church. Do you see us argue? I am not interested at all because such things are not important.

BROTHERHOOD IS THE CITY OF GOD
Candidly, throughout the entire world, this is the only place where God is found, where the word of God dwells. It is a very significant place and yet the world acknowledges it not. I am not worried about it. But in all monetary affairs, donations and contributions, Brotherhood will be remembered. In any other sphere of life, it will be argued that Brotherhood is no church, it may not even be mentioned. Do you notice us argue? If it were you, you would have argued. It was the instruction I received from the hands of the Father. I do not count these things as of any significance but I am simply using them as examples unto you. You should also learn of all that Brotherhood has done because they are the instructions of the Father. Even the type of works which is done generally and for the individuals in this Kingdom, who honours and reverences God? Have we ever worried about this? We have not, because these are so meant to be.

BCS CANNOT BE RECOGNISED CARNALLY
This instruction is for Me; it is for you and for the entire world. A great number of people feel that the Leader does not see, hear, or has conscience or could do anything whatever. This is erroneous. What happens is that we are following the instructions of the Father. There are certain places where the Father had been invited to their occasion but the people do not even take cognizance of the representatives of the Father. These representatives are not given any attention nor offered seats. Yet they will keep on drumming, dancing, drinking and doing many other things. During donations, the Father will be called. After the presentation of the donation, they will begin to shiver and ask whether the representatives will drink or eat? That will mark their departure. In many other places, when such representatives attend even in the church denominations of reverend gentlemen, they would not even take cognizance of them. But it does not matter. They were only concerned with what was said. “Give to him that asketh thee.” They give and go their way. The second lesson will now be read. Listen attentively to what is going to be read unto you.

2nd Lesson: St. Luke 14: 10.
“But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, friend, go up higher; then shall thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee”.

Who is the speaker? God Himself speaks. That is the pattern, which the children of God should lead. Many people should be present this night to listen to this gospel. When they go outside, they shout on Olumba Olumba Obu; that Brotherhood is God; that Brotherhood is above all; or seek for Brotherhood’s share. Such persons who go about fomenting trouble should be here to hear this gospel. Pastors, Apostles, Evangelists and indeed all of you who are pompous and arrogant should come in here and listen to this gospel.

ABHOR ARROGANCE
Immediately you are ordained a prophet, you will not allow any other person a chance. You will assume superintendency over everything. The moment you are ordained a Pastor, you will no longer want to hear what any other person says. Nobody, in your estimation is capable of advising you. You do not reckon on what others say. You are called Christ’s Student without even knowing the meaning of a Christ’s student. But you do not allow people to pass along the streets. You will claim superiority over every other person. The same thing applies to the Christ’s Servants, the elders and others. Every person struggles for everything around, but have you heard what the portion says?
You have merely been invited here. You do not know the content of this Kingdom of God. You should sit on the ground with absolute humility. Even if you are consecrated an Elder or whatever position is assigned to you, sit on the ground. When the person who invited you appears to find you on the ground, he will call you up to a higher seat.

THE HIGHEST POSITION IS THE ONE OCCUPIED BY THE HUMBLEST PERSON
Do you think that Pastor is the highest position in this Kingdom? Would you think that Apostle is the highest in this Kingdom? Would you think that Elder is the highest in this Kingdom? Or would you think that it is the Christ’s Student who is the highest? Or do you think that it is the virgin who is the highest? Which of these do you think is the highest position in this Kingdom of God? It is the position of a person who humbles himself to the point of prostrating on the ground. In whatever position God has placed you, do not count yourself as anything. You are made a Leader’s Representative to look over all these things, do not give yourself authority over anything in that dormain. Wait till the owner comes and He will lift you up. In anything at all, wherever you wish to go, or are sent on delegation, take the lowest seat where the people meet.

BROTHERHOOD COMES TO SERVE
It is the advice I had given that Brotherhood is not out to seek for positions either in government circles, or church denomination, or in cities, or from any person for that matter. Brotherhood has come to serve God. This instruction is for all the children of God throughout all the four- corners of the world. If you are the first daughter, or first son, or the father, or whatever you may be, if you take the lowest seat, counting yourself as nothing, you will hear people calling on you to get up. Every person will want to lift you high. Even when somebody robs you of your right, and they struggle over it, they would start quarreling amongst themselves, and complain that the owner has not even said a thing about it, why do they scramble and fight? They will recognize you as the owner.

DO NOT SEEK YOUR OWN GLORY
Brethren, do you possess this wisdom? Do not struggle for anything with any person here on earth. Do not allow anything to worry you about any carnal thing, because it is God who exalts you and God also abases you. You are a child of God, and that is accepted. God is your Father, this is also true, but you have to humble yourself. Wherever you go to, do not put up yourself as the good and beloved child of God. Humble yourself to the lowest point. Do you remember when our Lord Jesus Christ asked Peter, saying, “Of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? Of their own children, or of strangers? Peter saith unto Him, of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, “Then are the children free”. Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them”. He further told Peter, “Go thou to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth; thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for Me and thee”. Do not forget that He is God, He is the Son of God, and He is the Son of man. But because they did not know Him, even if they knew Him, observe how humble He was.
He neither encouraged nor fomented any trouble. He did not seek for His own glory as you are doing. It is said “He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory; but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true”. Do you remember what happened when our Lord Jesus Christ walked around the sepulcher and met with the man who used to come out of the sepulcher, who was possessed by the evil spirit. When he told our Lord Jesus Christ, I know that you are the Son of the Living God, torment me not for my time is not yet up. So the devils besought Him, saying, “If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine”. Our Lord Jesus Christ obeyed and did likewise. Can you notice humility? He was not opposing to it, nor did He torment or kill them. The devil possessed man opted to be driven into the swine. The herd of swine ran violently into the sea, and perished in the water. When they that kept the swine saw these things, they fled into the city and reported everything. The entire city came out and met our Lord Jesus Christ and besought Him that He should depart out of their coasts. He quietly went His way. He did not stop for a moment to ask what He did or to show that He was the Son of God and able to cause fire to consume them. Gently He left them without making any statement.

I AM NOT THE DOER
Can you not recognize the fact that He is the only truthful Teacher? God has noted all the things He has done and has found Him worthy to be a Leader. It was not only on the day He was crucified, but right from the time He came into the world, His life-pattern had been the same. Every work done in the world today is done by our Lord Jesus Christ, but have you ever found Him standing up to declare that He is doing the work and that the work is not done by Leader O.O. Obu but Himself. Right now many people are jealous that the glory which should have been given to the Christ is rather given to an ordinary human being and they ask who Olumba Olumba Obu is. They are very exasperated. The irony of it all is that the Lord Jesus Christ who is doing everything does not even worry about it. All the church denominations congregate and in their prayers report to the Lord Jesus Christ, that Satan is going to snatch all his followers, and that he should kill Olumba Olumba Obu. But our Lord Jesus Christ does not say anything. He is doing His work orderly. There is nothing the church denominations have not done to Me. You are aware of what they say whenever they come in here, and they say He is neither Jesus nor His brother, nor know where He comes from. “A man who suffers from Hernia does not complain of pains but the neighbour complains of sleeplessness because of his pain.” I have told you that I am not the person doing the work but when you go out, you tell people that Olumba Olumba Obu is one thing or the other, but I continue to tell you that I am not the doer.
You have heard what is read to you, that when you are invited to a dinner, you should sit down in the lowest room. When the chief host comes, he will tell you to go higher, then will you have glory in the presence of all the guests who sit at meal with you.

DO NOT SEEK AFTER MAN’S GLORY
Do you not remember when our Lord Jesus Christ made bread for the people and they ate to their satisfaction? They at once said this is of a truth the prophet that should rule over them in the world and so conspired to make Him king by force. When our Lord Jesus Christ perceived that they would come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed from them and hid Himself. Why did He run away? Have you found an errand boy delivering his messages in parables? He did not seek after any glory from man but after the glory of God because the glories of the world are transitory and perishable. No man can ever glorify you. I am telling you this that you may know yourself so that whenever somebody will come to lift you up and you accept it and start to puff up, you have failed.

FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT REVEAL CHRIST
Do you remember when our Lord Jesus Christ asked His disciples, “Whom say the people that I am”? They said John the Baptist, but some say Elijah and others say one of the old prophets. He turned and asked them, but whom do you say that I am? Peter answered and said thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God. Then our Lord Jesus Christ said: “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jona; for flesh and blood had not revealed it unto you but My Father which is in Heaven”. But at the end He charged them that they should tell no man that He was the Christ until the consummation. Why did He behave that way? If He had started telling people that He was the Christ, God would have abased Him.

THE CHRIST WAS EQUAL WITH GOD
When the people wanted to make Him a king, if He had accepted and allowed Himself to be enthroned, I tell you of a truth, God would have reduced Him into oblivion. Since He was God, He could not assume such a position because He knew that such carnal things are transitory and perishable. He was God, and He was the Son of God and equal with God, but did not think it robbery to be equal with God. But made Himself of no reputation and took upon Himself the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of man. That was why when a man battered Him on the face and asked who battered Him, but He did not budge at all. Even at your places of work the head of department says you will not be promoted, you should go to Olumba to give you promotion. If you are a tenant, the house owner will give you notice to pack from his house and go to Olumba Olumba Obu to give you a house because you accept that man is God. What can he do to Me? I know him; He cannot do any harm to me. Go and tell Him to give you a house. And in the midst of his rage, he would boast that he had disgraced a BCS man and he spoke unseemly against the Brotherhood Leader, because he cannot do him any harm. All such things are foolishness and nonsensical.
It is said blessed are you when men shall revile you and persecute you and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad for great is your reward in heaven. Do not allow anything to induce you to exalt yourself. Even if you are made the chairman of the occasion humble yourself, because you are not the chairman. Even while you are sitting on the ground, the owner comes to lift you so high, continue to humble yourself to the point of prostrating. Do not make any noise.

NO CONDITION IS PERMANENT
Remember, what He said to Pharaoh. He said for this reason did I lift you up, in order to show My power so that My name would be sung throughout the world. He exalts you high and He abases you to oblivion. If man were wise and intelligent whenever God or man lifts him up, he should maintain absolute humility. This is so because no condition is permanent. You have seen things for yourselves but you have no wisdom. But now, I have shown you the truth, which is in this Kingdom. Our downfall arises from the fact that when God lifts us high; we begin to puff up. But watch lest haply you fall into temptation. Upon all the shouts of the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when did He express such joy through orchestra? He sees all the evils we commit and all the good things we do, He is the doer of the work, but have you heard His voice? Some people argue that Christ is dead and He makes no statement. Some maintain that He is in the sky, others argue that He no longer exists, others says He has no power, but have you heard His voice, though He has heard all and has known all, He does not bandy words with any person.

ARGUMENT AGAINST THE DEITY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
This explains why people do believe that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Son of God. They ask why God so condescend to the extent of entering into the womb of a woman, and how a woman could deliver God, and that such child cannot be God. So they refuse to believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ. They also argue that if He were God, there was a guest -house where men of all station of life including lawyers, doctors, professors lodged but why should He condescend Himself to be born in the manger. This is, as it was, indicative of the absolute humility of our Lord Jesus Christ. When it was known at that time that our Lord Jesus Christ would be born. Herod, the king and the princes arranged and prepared their houses because they thought that the Christ would be born in their houses, but to their utmost dismay He was born to a mere carpenter who had nothing to eat, and to Mary, a simple virgin. These are some of the things, which made it conclusive that the ways of God always delude the wisdom of man. If we accept the advice of this day, and the way and manner in which it is revealed, indeed, you will be saved.

THE CHRIST DID NOT COME TO DESTROY – BUT TO SAVE
When our Lord Jesus Christ wanted to go to Jerusalem, He passed through a small Samaritan village. There, the people did not receive Him because He set His face as though He would go to Jerusalem. The disciples asked Him whether He would desire that they command the fire to come down from heaven to consume them even as Elijah did? But He rebuked them and said you do not know what manner of spirit you are of. For the Son of man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save and preserve them.
Brethren, Brotherhood has not come to puff up, or to be arrogant or to blow its trumpet, but to humble itself to the point of prostrating. And so brethren, I do not wish to take you further than this, the golden text will now be read.

Golden Text: Philippians 2: 8-9
“And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name”.

Brethren, have you heard that which is read unto you? It is said before honour is humility. It was not for any other thing that His name was lifted up but for the reason of His humility. If our Lord Jesus Christ comes in as we are sitting down here, have you seen Him? He has always been working on earth but who has seen Him? Some people build storeys that when He comes He might live therein. Some others surrender a whole bank for Him for the reason of following Him, but have they seen Him? Yet He is here on earth.

IMPERSONATION OF THE CHRIST
There are about three persons in the United States of America who deceived others into believing that they are the ‘Christ’. The Americans have spent their money rejoicing, and making other preparation because they erroneously believe that, Christ in His next advent would be born in America. Inspite of their heavy investments for this purpose, the people who impersonated the Christ died as fowls. Among the Chinese, several persons have claimed to be the Christ. In other places also others have staked similar claims. If somebody comes to lay a claim before you that he is the Christ, he is not, because our Lord Jesus Christ can never confess that He is the Christ. That would be tantamount to vain glory.

YOU ARE WHAT GOD MAKES YOU
When you humble yourself to the point of prostrating, God will exalt you high up. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. Have you not realised His grace through humility? Have you ever found a man whose name has been exalted above all other names by God? Never you again seek after glory and vain honour for yourself. If somebody asks you, who you are, tell him that you do not know who you are. Whatever the Father desired that you should be, that is what you are, but you cannot be whatever you claim to be. Never you suggest anything to yourself. Never you claim anything as your own. Allow God always to fulfill His will in you. Whatever people may arrogate to you, have no regard for, because God knows that it is a test. Whatever the Father wants you to become, you will see it, you will not decide for yourself, but the Father will do His will.

WHO ARE YOU TO DICTATE TO GOD
We should thank God always for the glory He has revealed to us at this end of time. It is said He humbles Himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him a name, which is above every name. Somebody is indebted to you, and you decide to teach him a lesson. Somebody curses you and you swear you will speak to him in the language he understands. Somebody makes an allegation against you, and you argue you will show him what you are. Have you heard what has been read to you? When you demand that the Father should speak so that something happens and to speak again so that nothing happens, have you heard that it implies vainglory? Allow whatever the Father wills, to come to manifestation. It is so because He owns us and wherever He keeps you should be all right with you. If we want Him to exalt our names then we should humble ourselves to the point of prostrating.

ONLY GOD DOES EVERYTHING
I sympathise with those who claim that they are the Christ, or God, or Jacob, or prophet or pastor. I am nothing at all. I do not even exist. Have I ever told you that I have power or that I can do anything? Even here in Brotherhood some persons claim they have power and they can heal the sick, and that they can do many other things. Have you ever seen a man like doctor, engineer or professor who does not arrogate certain powers to himself? In My own case I always tell you that I have no power, these words are not spoken by Me, I do not even exist, and I want nothing. It is bamboozling to hear that some people announce that all sick people should be taken to them for healing, because there is power in a particular Bethel. But I want to put it before you that I have no power, since I do not do anything; it is the Father who does everything. From where does that action or that pattern of life derive? Can you not realise from where it emanates?

WHOEVER SHALL BE GREAT MUST BE A SERVANT
The gospel of today has revealed to you what each of us should do, and this explains why we should all come into this Kingdom of God. It is said that if you want to walk with Me you have to humble yourself as a small child. It is also said whosoever wants to be a leader should enslave himself to others. Even as the Son of man did not come to be ministered unto but to minister and to give His life a ransom for many. He says whoever will be great among you should be your minister. Which, therefore do you think is the highest position in this Kingdom? It is that whosoever wants to be great he should be a servant, also whosoever is the greatest must be a servant. That is exactly what you find in Brotherhood. If you want to be the greatest and you start to minister unto others, but when you are appointed to that position, you start to puff up, you would be down graded and your corpse will not even be seen. This explains why some people here, when they are not yet ordained prophets, they accept all types of jobs menial and otherwise, but when they are ordained, they will feel so elated and will return to their houses to rest, and will not even attend prayers. Such persons do not know themselves. I cannot explain why spectacular things happen on Sunday nights and I want this gospel produced very urgently.
When you are called Obu’s son, you will not allow people to pass along the street. Most especially if I invite you, you will become so elated, proud and pompous, and you will tell people not to come near you and whether they do not know that you are Obu’s son? And others will begin to raise their eye- brows and question why the Leader should give preferential treatment to you. You will be a subject of jealousy by others who nurse grievances against you. That is why none of you here accepts to submit himself to others. If you want to pass through a certain place and somebody touches you in an attempt to tell you not to pass, you will push him back and ask him if he does not know that you are in the house of your Father. Brethren, such pattern of life is very pitiable. Even in other church denominations or bethels in which you are a member, you have to humble yourself as you are taught, do not count yourself as anything throughout your life. It is humility, which is the most important virtue in this Kingdom. When somebody curses and disgraces you, spits at you, or you are not considered when anything is shared, you are not given a place to sleep and your name is not even mentioned, do not budge at all, even if you are called names you have to endure and tolerate.

DO NOT SEEK TO DEFEND
Do not report to any person, or to react at all, do not take any other action, do not defend yourself, do not be exasperated because the Father knows, and it is for the reason of this humility that you will be exalted. Why you are confused and easily irritated, always exasperated, could not obey simple orders, and that you cannot forgive, is that not seeking self -glory? Whoever seeks the glory of God has no problem at all. Even if you go to a certain place where people call you thief, apparition and expel you, do not make a statement of defence that you are not a thief, but you have to walk quietly away.
Some people continue to inquire to know what is in Brotherhood? What is in Brotherhood is humility. The world says that the Leader is dead, that He is a cannibal, a murderer, a dracular; behold I am standing here, have I made any statement of defence? Have I refuted in the newspaper or through the Radio or Television or in any magazine? If I do that, it implies that I have exalted Myself.

So brethren, I do not wish to be tedious unto you. One stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. Those who have ears let them hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

Thank you Good Father

“BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER”

TEXT: GALATIANS 4

SIN IS HEREDITARY FROM OUR FOREFATHERS.
Brethren, the theme of our lectures is derived from Galatians 4: 28-31.
The problems, tensions and confusions besetting the entire world emanate from the failure of mankind to comply with the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says that a woman should marry only one husband and vice versa, but a majority of people in the entire world have objected to this divine injunction. It is also said that neither a man nor a woman should commit fornication and adultery, but you do not appear to heed these instructions.
The Bible has also advised us not to kill, tell lies, indulge in the preparations of juju, concoctions etc, but to be humble, patient and peaceful, but nobody wants to comply with these instructions.

Can you realize the gravity of the punishment, which has been meted out to mankind as repercussion for not keeping these instructions of God? All problems, difficulties, wars, famine, economic recession, unemployment which beset the entire world are because of being disobedient and resistant to the divine will and the injunctions of God. God has informed us that Isaac was the son of Abraham and Sarah, and also the son of promise. But Ishmael the son of Hagar, the Egyptian, was not the son of promise. Who is the freeborn and who is the son of bondage? Abraham had two prominent children. He had Ishmael and Isaac, and the latter had to submit more to the instructions of God because he was a child of promise.
As a matter of fact, Isaac was not born of the flesh and blood, but of the spirit, and so, was more submissive to the parents than the other son. You are now privileged to know the difference between the child born of the flesh and blood and one born of spirit. A child born of flesh and blood is the one born through the sexual intimacy of the father and mother during which union the parental tendencies pass through the blood to form the child. The spirit of fornication and adultery, anger, segregation and even sicknesses such as gonorrhea, fits, syphilis etc, also pass from either sex into the child, and that is why it is said that “Blood is thicker than water”.
It is through this medium which the Bible says that the iniquities of the parents are visited on the children. It is this blood of theft, fornication, murder, anger, falsehood and other vices which consist of what is known as the flesh and blood which indeed are causing confusion and tension all over the world. When the scripture said that you were sharpened in iniquities and born in sins, these constitute the sinfulness of the parents of the child who are infested or contaminated with theft, fornication, murder, false, anger, treachery, envy, impatience, deceit through whose blood the child is born into the world.

Some of you used to ignorantly say that the children of nowadays are so bad, and I am asking you to tell Me what is responsible for that? It is the parents who are responsible because the sins of the parents are visited on the children. But a child born of the spirit is the promise child born without the sexual union between the husband and wife. This can be made possible through the efficacy of the words of promise by God Himself.
Brethren, there was a certain German national who was hospitalized sometime ago because he was anemic. Consequently, the doctor in charge prescribed that some blood was needed so as to administer blood transfusion for him. When he was informed about this, he emphatically declared that unless the blood is extracted from his fellow German national, the blood transfusion should not be administered. That is the trouble that has engulfed the whole world, racial discrimination. We have various textures of blood because as our faces are different so also are the blood groups on our bodies. Flesh is the carnal body constitution, and you are advised not to get involved in vices such as anger, murder, backbiting, fornication and adultery and the rest of the vices because these tendencies pass through the process of blood into others or even into the children yet unborn. The blood through which a child is born into the world is the true replica of you, and your child will have the tendencies of behaving like you and committing the same vices, which you had been indulging in.
Therefore, when you are told not to commit sins, this instruction is given for your own benefit, and not for the benefit of God Himself, because the sins you commit shall bring more abominations to you, and would further aggravate the tensions and the problems in the world.

THE CHILD DOES WHAT THE PARENTS ARE DOING
You should never forget that whatever you are, that is what your child shall also be. Why do you have to blame your child when he is displaying your tendencies obtained through blood? That is why it is often said that blood is thicker than water because if you are a thief, murderer, malicious person, a fornicator etc, your child certainly will inherit all these characteristics from you through blood and the blood can’t be extracted at all. That is the first mistake you have committed. Once you have the sexual union with your wife or husband and you bring forth a child, and you are aware that you are an ill-mannered person or malicious person, do you think that your child will be different from you? Any attempt to exonerate yourself from or dodge the sins your child indulges in is illusive. These are your true tendencies he inherited through blood during birth, and these tendencies are exhibited irrespective of age.

THE ONE SIN THAT CAUSE STANDSTILL IN THE WORLD
If you want your children to be well meaning citizens of your country, you have to cultivate the habits of refraining from all manners of sins, and this is for your own benefit and good reputation. Right now, there is one particular sin, which is waging war throughout the whole world, and it is fighting all the world inhabitants to a standstill, and that particular sin is fornication. Everybody knows that it is bad, yet everybody is enjoying it. It is a truism that your forefathers married as many as five, ten, or twenty wives and despite these numerous wives, they were still not satisfied, they still had to flirt with other women, the numerous children they possessed notwithstanding.

In view of the foregoing, this adulterous blood is transferred into their children during birth. Most of the diseases afflicting humanity today such as syphilis, gonorrhea, leprosy, fits, hypertension etc, are transmitted from one person to another during sexual union, between man and woman. Most of the vices such as murder, malice, anger, hatred, drunkenness are also transmitted to others through blood during fornication and adultery.
That is why when a white man impregnates a black woman or a woman who is not from his race, he will not own that child even though he will do everything humanly possible to support that woman and her child to take care of themselves. If a white man marries a black woman and they bear a child, what do you call that child? Is he a white or black person? That child is mulatto. He is neither a white man nor a black person, and eventually an outcast. His behavior will be abnormal in all respect. Sometime he would have the tendency to behave as a white person and in another period he would equally behave as a black man. Why is it so? If a white man marries a white woman, what will be the complexion of that child? Similarly if a black man marries a black woman, what will be the texture of the body of the child born?
If a black man stays in a white man’s country, for a number of years, even as long as thirty years, he will still behave as a black man displaying all the tendencies of a black man, his social interactions amongst the whites notwithstanding. He will still shamelessly display those crude tendencies of uncivilization. It is a surprising thing to notice that the blacks in European countries and in the United States are still behaving in the same way as the blacks in Africa. Involving in bad behaviour although they learn or work as doctors or professors and are professionals in different fields of human endeavours, but yet their many years of stay in these places have never made them change their moral values and concepts because blood is thicker than water.

If you are crafty or indulge in the preparation of juju, concoctions, fornication or murder, you are not just learning how to do it, you inherited it right from the blood because your fathers and forefathers actively indulged in these vices and the tendencies cannot be eradicated just immediately. These are the things which most of the black people do not know, but the whites understand a little bit of this recondite wisdom, but not fully. In the sense that they (the whites) are still indulging in vices such as drinking of alcoholic liquors, snuffing and smoking affecting or destroying their constitution.
If it could be possible for all and sundry to come to the wisdom of this truth, and they refrain from all manners of vices and we hold ourselves together with the surest hope that in the nearest future all will be well. That is why Paul had made a statement, which is recorded in 1 Corinthian 7: 37-40:
“Nevertheless he that standeth steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin doeth well. So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well, but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better. The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth, but if her husband is dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom, she will only in the Lord. But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgement; and I think also that I have the spirit of God”.

Why did Paul make this statement? It is because if you marry a child of God, it stands to reason that the blood that will be transferred to your children will be pure with fear, love, peace and other attributes of degree of the qualities of God in the character and the behaviour of the person. Why it is difficult for a man born of the flesh and blood to practice the words of God is that he has been a spoiled and contaminated man right from his nature. What Our Lord Jesus Christ employed in comforting humanity is that we are saved by sheer grace and mercy of God. Well, that should be accepted just like that. Therefore, there is no other way than to accept this concept and to tolerate and practice the love of one another. There lies our salvation. What type of preaching are you going to deliver to people who have been so spoiled or contaminated in sins through parental blood, that means that the old man is still dwelling in you.

1 Corinthians 5: 1-5
“It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as if not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife. And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you. For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed. In the name of our Lord Jesus when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ. To deliver such a one unto Satan for destruction of the flesh, the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus Christ.

GOD CREATED MAN AND WOMAN FOR HIMSELF ONLY
God did not create a woman for any man neither any man for any woman; He did not decreed that a man or woman should be sexually intimated to bring forth any child. Rather His divine intention was that the spirit of God should overshadow a woman to bring forth a child, so that whatever is born of that woman will be spiritual and holy and if that very purpose of God had materialized there will be no problems in the world.
On the other hand, God has created a man to live a pious life, and if a man were to live such a pious and righteous life, his spirit will eventually not be polluted, to this end and the children the man would bear will be pure and sanctified children. And that is why when you have an intimacy with a woman and what comes out as a result of that union is a replica of you, and those tendencies will show themselves in that child who is born.

ILLUSTRATION
There was a certain man in this town who was to be ordained a Reverend. Another black already ordained reverend opposed the idea and advised the white reverend gentleman who wanted to ordain him not to do so because his father was a renowned necromancer. He was certain of his opinion that this man, the proposed reverend, would end up as a necromancer. The white man said that such idea was superfluous and beset with a superstitious belief. The man also said that his suggestion was a primitive concept because he never realized the blood tendency problems.
The black reverend insisted that the white man would certainly regret the spiritual short-sightedness of his action because his words will come to a fulfillment. He refused to be associated with the ordination, and so he did not attend the celebration the day this man was ordained. As a matter of fact this reverend gentleman in the course of time was caught red-handed in the preparation of concoctions and charms in a hideout within the vicinity of the town and his photograph was taken without his knowledge. Secondly, the ordained reverend had a place in the ceiling of his church where he placed some fetish and other objects he believed could influence his adherents and compelled their obedience and submission. He used to go secretly to various popular necromancers for the preparation of concoctions with goats, fowls etc, and unfortunately for him in one of his several attempts, he was caught by his members who also took his photographs as a witness to show to his adherents. Whenever this unfortunate reverend gentleman mounts the altar, he would preach about charms, apparitions and witchcraft and all sorts of hideous things to frighten his members. Similarly, he would tell his members that heaven helps those who help themselves, an assertion, which lacks a biblical support. In view of the above, you will acknowledge that the reverend was misdirecting his members. He got involved in initiation into various occult and mystical societies, and finally died a pagan deeply entrenched in heathenish.

You would realize that this very reverend gentleman was invited one day by a member and some leaves were applied in his eyes, and he later discovered that all his members and adherents were wizards and witches. He then stopped it, and was able to know better.
Brethren, this story has then exposed to all of you that the cause of all the troubles and difficulties in the world emanate from the misdirection and the distortion of the Christian doctrines by the worldly orthodox churches. And all forms of religions and the blood we inherit from our parents. If it were possible for a man or woman to stay for a while without having the carnal knowledge of the opposite sex, all would have gained some level of perfection and righteousness. It is very wrong for somebody to say that another person has spoiled my child, this act is self-inflicting. The day you will be privileged to realize that blood is a very precious thing, you will refrain from indulging in vices such as having intimacy and all problems and difficulties will be a thing of the past.

The simplest thing to do therefore so that the spirit of vices in you might die out completely is to stop any further sexual intimacy with any man or woman for at least three to six months. You will be free in mind and you will be in perfect peace. You can undertake a studied experiment on this truth to prove what I am telling you if you chose to do so. Why I say that you will be different is that your forefathers were chronic sinners, indulging in drinking, snuffing, smoking, murder, idolatry, fornication and adultery. All these tendencies are in you. When a person does not have any carnal knowledge of the opposite sex, the person will not experience problems in life, no fear and no lack of self-confidence, but once the person indulges in sexual intimacy, he/she will start to have problems.
That is why many of you are so fearful now. Whereas, you had no such terrible experience before. You were never sickly before, but now you have lost the confidence you used to have in life, you have now resorted to use of charms, talismans, concoctions to protect you, but still lots and lots of evils continue to befall you. You become more prone to all these evil tendencies which have all surfaced once again. If you had the right senses, could you not understand that if you are in sexual union with any person who has all these evil tendencies and diseases such as gonorrhea, syphilis, leprosy, palsy, fits, etc, all will pass through the blood into your body.

WHY HUMANITY HAS NEVER BEEN CHANGED
You will now realize that all evil tendencies with the resultant sufferings in the world arise out of the sexual intimacy between a man and a woman. Similarly, all the bad children we bring forth into the world who fight, cause confusion, and commit suicide, emanate from that very reason. It is too late and it will be an exercise in futility for you to pray that God should take this or that. If you use a white earth to mould something, how can you change it to black earth or vice versa? You could then see that these situations had become immutable. To this end, a man of God continues to be a man of God, and a man of the world continues to be a man of the world, and this situation is permanent and immutable.
“He that committeth sin is of the devil, for the devil sinneth from the beginning, for this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil”.
Brethren, have you heard that? That is why you have heard that people will come out from the waters, another plane of creation and when you see them with their beauty or handsome you will be attracted to go and be intimated with them. In the course of doing so, you will infuse and contract to yourself certain incurable diseases and spirits of vices which will be very harmful to you. And that is why St. Paul warned against these vices when he recorded in 1 Corinthians 7: 5. Paul had foreseen these things even though he wrote these things when he was fairly advanced in age. It is quite clear to us that if you have a man who is a celebrated or chronic fornicator who comes into this room, and he finds no woman to fornicate with, he will therefore not do thing with the pillars; eventually he would stay without. But if a woman comes in, he would be aroused to plead with the woman to stay with him because he has now got an opportunity. So it is with you, if you had stayed for quite a while without having any sexual union with any woman, but immediately you do it again, all the tendencies will return back to you in a greater force than before. If unfortunately you go astray to commit that kind of sin, you should fast and pray so that the actual spirit of God which had departed from you might return to you. You should then come to the realization that all the evil things you had committed come from blood, and that is why you find it difficult to understand and to practice the words of God because blood is thicker than water.

A MAN BORN OF SPIRIT HEARS AND UNDERSTANDS THE WORDS OF GOD

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

If a man is not born of spirit, he cannot hear the words of God. For example, if Isaac had been an ordinary person born of the flesh and blood, he would have resisted his father who wanted to cut off his head as s sacrificial lamb for God. You cannot try it with your six-year old child now, and you will notice his reaction if he would not even reverse the action to sacrifice you instead. All your children are hanging about your neck and if they ask you questions, you will hardly be able to answer.
I am aware that many of you run from your houses because your children so much pester your life, but of -course, that is your blood. There is one Doctor Ikeme whose second son wanted to kill him, and in fact the situation was so tense that he had to obtain police protection and escort. Although the child died a very miserable death some few years ago, that was a very unusual and odd situation. There are many people who now own such recalcitrant children all over the world. They get their parents beaten and driven out of their houses, and that is the result of fornication and adultery which you are being advised to refrain from.
It is often said that children of prominent men are never successful in life, and I am asking you to tell Me, which prominent person who has never been a flirt or prostitute? Is there any chief, paramount ruler, a governor or president etc, who has never been a liar, fornicator, swindler, smoker or drunkard or who does not indulge in the preparation of charms, concoctions, and murder? And if they were so deeply involved in evil tendencies, how could they have good children? When a person is not good, how can he produce good children? When you argue that children of policemen and lawyers are never good or successful in life, can you tell me that these professions are good ones? Incidentally, they are cunning, and liars. Their wives are also bad, because the blood from their husbands have contaminated them and eventually, no amount of preaching can change them from their evil tendencies.

It is something shameful to see that all the African Heads of Governments are swindlers, and they also openly receive bribes. They are drunkards, smokers, snuffers, and liars. They are adulterers and fornicators who flirt about with wives and daughters of their citizens in the public. They also get involved in sharp practices in contract work, whereas if white men are given these positions, they will respect themselves and control their offices judiciously. They will control themselves from the enticing proceeds, powers and the paraphernalia of their offices.
Right now in this country, the whites are still better respected and more trusted than the Nigerians themselves because of their sharp business practices. The Nigerians also betray their fellow Nigerians in business deals. They keep on messing around so they have no self-respect for themselves quite unlike their white counterparts. Have you ever seen or heard when a white man takes another white man to court in Nigeria? But yours, both here and in the white man’s country, you freely take court action against your fellow black man with abject abandon. This is caused by evil tendencies in the blood inherited from your fore-parents.
IT IS ONLY THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT CAN CHANGE A PERSON
If the Holy Spirit is not with you, it is not easy for you to refrain from fornication and adultery, smoking, drinking, anger, hatred, murder, snuffing and the rest of them because these are inherited from parents. It is expedient for a person to be a man of God and die poor as a man of God, so that your children shall be blessed, and the blood tendencies in them shall be pure and sanctified. You should make an effort and God will help you out of the doldrums of sinfulness.

1 Timothy 4: 8
“For bodily exercise profiteth little, but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life, that now is, of that which is to come”.

What I am imparting to you is the recondite wisdom, which even the whites do not understand.

AN ILLUSTRATION
In a certain city, there lived a money magnet that had chains of storey buildings; estates and all sort of landed property. He was very rich by all sense of the word. He went and saw a particular lady who was a paragon of beauty, and needed her hand in marriage. She came from a royal family, when the rich business tycoon asked her for marriage, all the elders in the community advised him not marry from that family. That it was unfortunate that anybody who married from that family had to become poor and wretched and would finally meet with a disaster.
He being a self-centered person and quite perceptive of his enormous wealth thought that to be a joke, because he thought that with his tremendous bank accounts, nothing on this earth can ever render him poor. He said that if he did not marry the girl, he would commit suicide, and took no interest at all in all the pieces of advice the elders gave to him. He asked himself, shall it be that the lady shall eat too much; the elders are talking nonsense, he asserted. He said that even if the lady will be spending as much as five thousand Naira a day, his billions of Naira loaded in the banks shall never be exhausted as to make him bankrupt.
The members of this particular family neither steal or kill, but they are poor and wretched, and of course, that never bothered this young money magnet and popular business tycoon. Finally, he went and contracted all the marriage arrangements with the parents and relations of the lady and paid all the money demanded from him and took the lady home. Within a while, his storey buildings started to catch fire here and there, and less than three months after his marriage with this lady, all his known properties were in great ruins. The trouble was not that of his wife because naturally, she was sober, serviceable and well mannered. She personally was not a spend thrift and she did not eat much and so spent less on food. The history of the man’s losses and ruins emanated from his pride; his wife was not instrumental to any of these unfortunate events. That is what the blood tendencies and parental heredity can do.

TEST ALL SPIRITS BEFORE MARRIAGE
That is why I am telling you that there is blood of poverty and wretchedness, there is also the blood of riches and money. When the blood of money enters any place, anything you touch will bring you money, and people will not realize from what sources the money comes to you. There is the blood of peace and tranquillity and wherever such people are found; there will be perfect calmness. The ways of the blacks are so far away from the stack realities of life’s norms and values. The case of the whites are quite distinctive since they are not all that so mindful of the physical beauty, but mostly they concern themselves with the spiritual aspect of what a person is. A person must be thoroughly discerned or investigated in order to know how useful she will be in the house, her facial appearance or ugliness notwithstanding. The blacks do not believe in these spiritual investigations of person before marriages. The commonest belief is that once a person has money, it’s all right, you can get any woman to yourself. You can go to the hotels, schools, and even on the roadside and collect as many women as you possibly want, but forgetting that it is that blood which will cause confusion everywhere. If your parents are evil people, they are malicious and idolatrous; it may not be possible for you to serve God because of the blood tendencies in you. Your mother or father will also hinder you from serving God, and even if you make a good attempt to serve God, the ability shall be inhibited because of the blood you inherited from them. That is what is called the flesh and blood, it is not you doing all these things, it is that sinful blood in you which had caused you to behave in the way you are behaving. That is exactly what Paul had said as recorded in Romans 7: 15-21.
“You have to refrain from all manners of sinfulness now and live a life of contentment, and consequently your future will show every element of righteousness”.
That is the blood in you, you are desirous of doing good, but the blood in you will prevent you from doing it. The problem is that the blood is fighting against the spirit and vice versa. For instance, when the gospel is being preached to you here, you become very sorry for your life and your evil doings, but as soon as you go out from here, the flesh will take dominion over you, and you degenerate back to your situation you had formerly found yourself.

CHILDREN OF FLESH AND BLOOD ARE IN OPPOSITION WITH THE CHILDREN OF THE SPIRIT
Our Lord Jesus Christ over-come the world, because He was not born out of the sexual union of Mary and Joseph. But was conceived of the power of the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit overwhelmed the blood, and that which was born had the complete attributes of God which are the truth, goodness, love, faith, peace, humility, patience and temperance. His brothers and sisters that were born after Him. Could not believe in Him, because they were born of the flesh and blood in respect of the sexual or carnal union of Joseph and Mary, and so could neither practice the words of God as preached by Our Lord Jesus Christ nor believe in God His Father. That was the reason there were some conflicts between Our Lord Jesus Christ and His brothers and sisters.

St. John 7: 3-8:
“His brethren therefore said unto Him, depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest. For there is no man that doeth anything in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, show thyself to the world. For neither did his brethren believe in him, Then Jesus said unto them. My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready. The world cannot hate you, but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil”.

Why did His brothers and sisters not believe in Him? It was because they were carnally and that was the blood of Joseph and Mary. They waged war against Him because it was a matter of the flesh fighting against the spirit. One was of the spirit, while the others were of the flesh and blood these were incompatible. They had differences in life, and could not agree in anything, They did not understand Our Lord Jesus Christ and He also could not understand them in that Our Lord Jesus Christ was born of the spirit, they were born of the flesh and blood. This is why you all use to spend sleepless nights thinking of the carnal things more than the spiritual things. Preach what you may, you will always see any two people discussing carnal things, while the spiritual things are relegated to the background.

All carnal things are given priority attention, while the spiritual things are given little or no attention at all. If the Holy Father says that He has given promotions, houses, motor cars etc, all would shout ‘AMEN’ at the top of their voices because these are carnal things. Conversely if the Holy Father asks that all should refrain from all manners of sinfulness, you will not answer anything. These are indicative of the fact that you are carnal minded. But I will not fail to teach and lead you to the path of righteousness. In the same token, if the husband does not believe in God, but the wife is a great believer and does all acts of righteousness, the children born between such union are pious children because of the sanctity of the wife. Similarly, the same situation is applicable to the believing husband who has an unbelieving wife.
This is in keeping with the scriptures which says that I will visit the iniquities of the parents upon the children and upon the third and the fourth generations of them who hate me, and I will show mercy to all those who keep My commandments and love Me.
It is very easy for a believer to convert a person who has not known about God. Especially if a man of God goes to marry from the family who do not know something about God, and the moment you are intimated, the woman and whatever will come out as the result of that union, will be a pious and righteous child. You will realize that the field is wide, but the reapers are few, and we must have to take heart in order to achieve our goal. That is why whatever happens to you, could not be attributed to you, because you are desirous to practice the gospels, but the ability is not there.
Your father spoiled you. It is the blood of murder, theft, swindling, smoking, drinking, fornication and adultery which has been responsible for the state of affairs you find yourself in. It should not be construed that the spirit of God is not in you. That is the warfare which exists, the desire to do what is good, but that blood in you hinders the spirit of doing good, even as recorded in Galatians 5: 17

“For the flesh lusteth against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other, so that ye cannot do the things that ye would”.

Do you now not realize that if we try as much as possible to practice the words of God, this will give your children and your children’s children the impetus to practice the words of God much better than you, and eventually you will reach perfection. Have you seen sons and daughters of the rich, the well to do the kings and queens practicing the words of God? They cannot. Those who are pretending to practice the words of God are the juju-doctors, necromancers, fortune-tellers etc; they do it in their own way, the way that suits their fancies. That is why you often find that the sons of the pastors, reverend, or bishops are not doing well or are at variance with the things which pertain to God, because they are not the true children of the bishops or pastors. If they were the real children of the bishops, they would surely be successful in life. The children who are always successful in life are often the children of those who are always in the service of God in the true sense of it. Instead of your parents to die as millionaires or billionaires, kings and queens leaving large legacies for you, let them die as paupers and leave truth as a legacy for you. St. Luke 6: 20-23
“And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor, for yours is the Kingdom of God. Blessed are ye that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now; for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the son of man’s sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy, for, behold, your reward is great in heaven; for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets”.

REFRAIN FROM SINS IS THE ONLY PASSPORT TO THE KINGDOM
You have to refrain from all manners of sinfulness now and live a life of contentment, and consequently your future will show every element of righteousness. Elizabeth and John had only one child who is more than thousands of children. If John the Baptist were to be the blood child of Zacharias, he would not have been able to do the work of God. Since God works in a mysterious way, whosoever works in good faith for Him, He has to reciprocate that kind gesture to Him equally. Whatever way we have chosen to obtain complete abstinence from sin, whether we are poor, whether we are leprous, whether we have children or no children, whatever may be our situation in life, we should rest assured that our future is very bright. You should ponder over the situation of Job when he openly accepted to serve God. He was stricken with abject poverty, all his children died and he himself was sickly, yet he did not deny God. He neither murmured nor blasphemed against God, and at the end, he had more prominent children, he was richer and more prosperous spiritually and otherwise than before.
You will then come to this realization that it is much more beneficial to be in the service of God. Any person who wants to serve God, must put himself head-deep into His service, not to stand haphazardly with one leg inside and the other leg outside. Then will he testify with his tongue to show that God is good and generous, once you work for God whole-heartedly, all your life; He will reciprocate this kind gesture.

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

THANK YOU FATHER

THE CREATOR IS ON EARTH

1st Lesson: St John 5: 30
“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgement is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father, which hath sent me”

2nd Lesson: St John 12: 49-50
“For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.”

Golden Text: St John 6: 45
“It is written in the prophets, AND THEY SHALL BE ALL TAUGHT OF GOD. Every man therefore, that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.”

THE GLORY OF GOD IS REVEALED
Beloved, this is the glory of God revealed in your midst for your benefit. This is in fulfilment of the scriptures – that in the days ahead, God would teach you everything. Today the Holy Spirit is in our midst, teaching us all things. A righteous one was sought after in heaven and earth, to open the seal; and to teach everyone written words in the book of God, but no one was worthy to open the book. It was for this reason, that our Lord Jesus Christ openly declared, that the Holy Spirit of truth would come and lead mankind to the accurate knowledge of truth. It is believed by all that there is no righteous person on earth.
God commissioned the prophets to come and teach human beings but when they arrived, they discovered that everyone derailed from the path of rectitude. Other sets of people went out, but they also found the world in that state of sinfulness. At the end of it all, He sent His only begotten son who declared to the world saying.
“I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He will glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father has are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you.” – St. John 16:12-15
This is not the time for you to emulate your fellow man. Rather, it is time we all should follow the Holy Spirit who is in our midst. He had stated:

“FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAITH THE LORD; I WILL PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MIND, AND WRITE THEM IN THEIR HEARTS. AND I WILL BE TO THEM A GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE TO ME A PEOPLE. AND THEY SHALL NOT TEACH EVERY MAN HIS NEIGHBOUR, AND EVERY MAN HIS NEIGHBOUR, SAYING, KNOW THE LORD: FOR ALL SHALL KNOW ME, FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST.” – Hebrews 8: 10-11

That period mentioned is our present age. The Holy Spirit is now dwelling in us. He is our instructor teacher, Leader and the doer of all things. So, do not allow anyone to make you derail from the path of rectitude. Rather, be led by the Holy Spirit in you. As the heaven is higher than the earth, so also is the wisdom of God much greater than man. At times you would hear some church leaders asking their followers, to practise what they preach but not what they themselves do.
Some leaders advise their followers to refrain from eating the flesh, fornication, theft, falsehood etc., yet they are seriously indulging in those sins. Some of them advise their ‘flock’ to forsake fornication, but at the same time they are committing the act. They would even term such an act, holy. For now, God trusts no one. Hence, the Holy Spirit decides to come personally into the world to dwell in each and everyone. Our Lord Jesus Christ was a leader, taught by the Holy Spirit and for this reason. He was able to bring salvation to us. Our main problem is contingent on the fact that we are following individuals and not abiding by whatever advice the Holy Spirit gives us.
You have come into the Kingdom today, so that you should hear words from the horse’s mouth. It is your failure to do most of the things He advises you to do that account for your inexplicable problems in life. If it were not for the Father’s coming into this world at this end of time, the world would have perished. Whenever someone tells you something, before you react, listen to the spirit. By so doing, the Holy Spirit in you will discern whether the information is true or false. You will hear preaching, but the Holy Spirit in you will inform you that the word is not correct. At times, you may plan to do something and He tells you that plan is bad. Therefore, we have to abide by every piece of advice given us by the Holy Spirit at the expense of man’s advice. He is the one who sees things within and beyond.
The Holy Spirit does not only exist in 34 Ambo Street, but He is in the body of all His children wherever they are. He is our Leader and Teacher. Many that keep His teachings and instructions will He save. So the only person you have to emulate is the Holy Spirit.
You can find a person who was through the help of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, discharged and acquitted in the law courts returning to his former church. At the time, advises anyone who has problems to come to Brotherhood. You would also find such a person reviling and condemning Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. You need not look at such a person; rather you have to listen to the Holy Spirit in you and do all that He directs you to do. This is so because your salvation is contingent on His words.

The Father commissioned the angels and the prophets to come and teach mankind and salvage them. Unfortunately, not until He sent His only son to die, for the effective accomplishment of the task. Now, He has come by Himself to dwell with human beings and lead them in the right way. The golden text of this sermon has explicitly stated that the Holy Spirit will teach people and those who will keep His teachings will follow Him. We are really the luckiest of all the generations. Had it not been for the love of God, humbly accepting to dwell with us, we would all have perished. Therefore you should follow and emulate no other person other than the Holy Spirit. His teachings are wholesome, worthy of emulation. If you are given a vision for instance, all you need do is to listen to the Holy Spirit in you. By so doing, He informs you if the vision is correct or incorrect. Stop doing things out of your volition, as you have been doing in the days gone by, for God has now come to dwell with human beings on earth, though they do not know him. At times you do say that your heart tells you not to tell lies, commit fornication and indulge in the like sins. Note however, that it is not your heart that so directs you but the Spirit of God in you.
Christ was in the Spirit. He was the first person that God lived in; that is why He did everything according to the dictate of the Holy Spirit. Hence, He conquered. You are a witness to the fact, that on different occasions our Lord Jesus Christ was asked to heal the sick. He would wait for a while, to receive directives from the Holy Spirit, on how to go about healing the sickness. Thereafter, He would either place His hands on the patient’s head or take him by the hand or instruct him to take bath in a river depending on the Holy Spirit’s directives. Christ did nothing out of His own volition; therefore it is imperative that you do nothing out of your volition. A great number of you do make mistake by claiming that you are not being taught by anybody. If you are not being taught by anybody, how then do you have this wonderful knowledge?

Always inform people that God is teaching you.
When preaching to people, they must have the assurance, that you only say what the Holy Spirit directs you to, notwithstanding the reaction of the listener. There is a saying, that “an errand boy has never died for responding positively to his master’s instructions”.
Here in the Kingdom, it is the only one God existing that teaches all the people – Choristers, Pastors, Students, Christ Servants, or Children of God. You have but one God. Since it was destiny, that He would come and lead humanity, He has in earnest come to accomplish the set task.
If any person instructs you to fornicate or commit adultery with them, and claims, that the instructions are from God. No matter who the person is, or the position they occupy in the Kingdom; it is a woeful lie. God cannot, and will not instruct anybody to indulge in any sinful act. Also make the person to be conscious of the fact that God cannot instruct anybody to indulge in sins.
If a person tells you that God instructed him to tell you that you should embrace righteousness and be virtuous, you should keep to such instruction religiously because it is from God. In whatever fellowship and group you find yourself, always abide by any instruction given which is from God irrespective of the age, status, position and educational attainment of the person.
Here in this Kingdom, no one has the authorisation to do things out of their free volition. Nobody has a right to flout what the gospels ask us to do; instead, we should follow the Holy Spirit without resistance. Your problems emanate from the fact that you do not listen to the Holy Spirit in you. This is why you see most chairpersons, secretaries and other executive members of different organisations in this Kingdom not agreeing with one another. The reason is that, when this person tries to listen to the spirit, the other listens to the flesh. Consequently, their decision became conflicting. I am telling you the veritable truth that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not of this world but from God.
If someone from another church informs you of instructions they received from God, and continue to advise you to fast and celebrate a love feast. Do exactly that, for it is from God. Never you shun the advice by claiming that he is not a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In the same vein, if a member of Presbyterian church advises you, that God says, you should refrain from keeping the boyfriend you have been keeping. You will have to refrain from such an act, because the instruction is from God.

CRUSADERS ARE THE SOLDIERS OF GOD
Many of you here long ago were asked to come here by the Father, but you refused. So your coming here today is not the work of the flesh and blood, but it is the will of God. However, having come here. Your problems have been solved. We are those who worship God in Spirit and in Truth. Many of you reject vision, regarding it as false. That is why you become annoyed and regret ever going on a ministry work to another place if a vision directs you to do so, and you will remark that such vision is a false one. You will then go on to quote that; “the Father has never been at the Village Square yet masquerade beats up his child at the same place”. Nothing would harm you in this Kingdom if you were obedient to the Father” yet it is your act of disobedience that deprives you of the Father’s protection and blessings.
It is advisable to be in the spirit, and by so doing we would not do what pleases the flesh. There is a saying that anyone who lives according to the dictate of the flesh shall die, while someone who lives according to the dictate of the spirit shall live forever. We do not have any business in segregating against non-members and embracing our members. Rather we should love everybody equally. Your coming here this week depicts that you are all crusaders. You are all soldiers of God. You have all been commissioned by the Father to come into the Kingdom this week.
Before now, when the Father used to call you, you would resist the call into this Kingdom and imbibe the gospel from the horse’s mouth. You would attribute your inability to respond to the call to financial problem. It is high time you all come into the Kingdom from all parts of the world to imbibe gospels from the horse’s mouth. Believe fervently that by your coming to 34 Ambo Street, your testimonies are on the way, and all your problems are no more. Here in the Kingdom, there is no sickness, healthy, poor or rich, beautiful or ugly, person. For we are all one in the Lord.
Some of you lament that you do not hold any position of responsibility in this Kingdom. I would love to ask you whether you are not a Brotherhood? Never allow such thought to disturb you, instead, always listen to the spirit and abide by the instructions He gives you. By so doing, you are all right. He is the Father who sends one on an errand and goes along to accomplish the task by Him. He does everything. So it is insignificant for you to claim that you are illiterate, inexperienced, wretched, etc. As such you cannot do anything. He has even told you not to be anxious of what you would speak. When you are faced with any difficulty, the Holy Spirit will delivers you, it is not you who speak, but the spirit of the Father in you. This is a proof that He is the one who does all things for us.
God knows what is good and would always enjoin you to do only what is good. He knows that respecting the leaders is good, hence, He admonishes you to be obedient to them. Therefore, if a person tells you that God says you should disobey your leader, you should discard such advice and make it clear to him that such advice does not come from God. Let no person stop you from being charitable to the needy, orphans, destitute, widows, etc., for it is God’s instruction that such people should receive care. He has also enjoined you not to begrudge anyone or to be recalcitrant in your matrimonial homes. He has also enjoined us not to behave as if we were hopeless and comfortless, but to put everything into prayer. In addition, we have to practise the word of God. As many that have received baptism into this Kingdom, are the soldiers of God. Their assignment is to serve God every day of their lives. Read the first lesson again:

1st Lesson St John 5: 30
“I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgement is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me”

GOD OWNS YOU
As a sequel to the above excerpt, you are not the owner of yourself. Rather, it is God who owns you. He is also the one to instruct and lead you, and so, you, should refrain from speaking and doing things out of your free volition. In the compound where you live, there are virgins, even though the Father has been requesting virgins, to be brought here to serve Him. Although they are yet to come, whenever the spirit in them persuade them to come, they would all be here because this is not the time that people do things out of their free volition. The Father is often talking to us and directing us on what to do.
As the international chairperson of this Fellowship testified, there was a child of God in Lagos whom the Father commissioned to go to the prison and preach to people there. At the completion of the assignment, about thirty prisoners received baptism into this Kingdom. So this is a proof that it is the Father who directs all to accomplish every task. Anyone who does things out of his or her free volition cannot please God. Hence, they will surly die, whereas a person, who works according to the Holy Spirit’s directive, would live.
The Holy Spirit who is in our heart is jealous and desirous of our service. He needs us so seriously to avert being condemned along with other people of the world. We are God’s temples, but the people of the world are not aware of this fact. However, the Holy Spirit reveals it that we are His temples. Hence, we should not defile ourselves with sin, particularly fornication. We should live according to the dictate of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, if there is something you vowed not to resolve in your life, but the Holy Spirit directs you to resolve the situation, be sure you abide by that directive.
There is a brother in Warri – Delta State, who was given a vision by a small boy, to go on a ministry work to three stations. At the end of it, he should celebrate Feast. This brother who is a Pastor, instead of abiding by the vision, decided to scold the boy, and saw the boy as an inconsequential person. The boy reiterated to the Pastor, that the vision was from God. That non-compliance with it would result in his dismissal from office, divorce by his spouse, selling of his car and house, and that he would not have a place to shelter his children.
Despite the emphasis, the Pastor scoffed at the vision because it came from a poor small boy. In a characteristic way, the Pastor refused to obey the vision. By then, he was a boss in his place of work and had many houses and properties. After one year, the Pastor was dismissed from work. His wife left him. He sold all his property and did not have refuge for his children. Finally, he came here and testified, advising other members that no one should scoff at the Holy Spirit’s directives. So many people are disobedient and stubborn.

The scripture says:
“If we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world” (Corinthians11:31-32).

A true child of this Kingdom does not belong to any particular Bethel. Instead, they go into every nook and cranny of the world, serving the Father according to the instructions from the Holy Spirit. This explains why we have the song, ‘My disciples be ever ready by day and by night’. Do not give directives to people out of your free volition. Instead, instruct people as the Holy Spirit in you directs. Make sure you direct according to the Holy Spirit’s directive, irrespective of the position of the person you are sent to, so that you might be justified for being obedient. The receiver of the message may receive judgement accordingly, depending on his response to the instruction.
Since we have knowledge of the fact that His advice is life everlasting. We should be obedient to Him and make sure we do not resist an evil doer. The contentment of all couples with their partners is essential. On no account should you commit adultery with someone’s husband or wife. On no account must you be harsh with your children. Never segregate against any person or group of persons, but accept every one. Husbands and wives should respect each other; because a couple is one, you need to endure each other. God is not lazy and He is not an idle Being. That was why Christ said that His Father worketh hitherto and He works. Therefore God cannot instruct anybody to be a parasite. Instead, He gives everyone the ability to find for his daily bread.
Read the second lesson again
2nd Lesson St. John 12: 49-50
“For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.”

LIFE ETERNAL
Make sure you refrain from adding to or subtracting from the Father’s instructions, and do not ever do what the Father does not ask you to do. In short, whenever you wish to put any message that is from God across to the listeners, tell the people the message as you receive from God as His advice constitutes life eternal.
Here in this Kingdom, it is the dictates of the Holy Spirit that everyone adheres. Besides, it is not the knowledge of education, or wealth acquisition, or beauty that is used to accomplish many spiritual assignments. Rather, it is the Father’s directives, which are used as imputes to accomplish every spiritual work in this Kingdom. The knowledge, power, and doctrine that are here in the Kingdom are not of this world, but from God.
There lived a woman who was revealed to go and minister prayers on a pregnant woman, but she refused. As a result of that, the pregnant woman gave birth to a premature child. The woman (a visioner) became lame, a price she paid for her negligence of duty. This is the cause of most problems of many people in this Kingdom.
There was also another person asked to undertake ministry work to three stations, but he refused. As a consequence, his plague was hernia. He took the sickness to hospital, it was not an easy thing to be identifying, but each time he came back home, and the hernia would re-appear. One day, he decided to go on the ministry work as was directed. Where he went, the demarcation was a river. Hence, he crossed the river to the place. While on his way to the place he felt like defecating and as he went into a nearby bush to defecate, he observed at that spot, that the hernia disappeared to date.
There are many stories here in the Kingdom for you. Moreover, your disobedience deprives you of such joy and glory. There are some people here in the Kingdom who have stayed for up to three decades, without consulting medical doctor for any sickness. Rather, what they do when they are sick, is knock their heads on the ground, fast, pay tithe, give free will offering, etc., healing them of their sickness. So there is no sickness, fear, deceit, loneliness, etc., here in the Kingdom.
Your problem emanates from the fact that you have failed to understand that the words imparted to you are from God; hence, you act contrary to them. Here in the Kingdom all the things done and words spoken are from God. You should therefore discard the habit of treating the word of God with levity. The shoe that we do not put on, and all other doctrines practices here in the Kingdom, are not pronounced by Me to be practised. Rather, it is the Father who pronounced such practices. The word of the Father is efficacious and that is why I do not toy with it and do not wish any of you to toy with it. Always be charitable to the needy and widows, for these people are Brotherhood. Never impute sin to anyone. Do not hate and begrudge anyone, for these are the words of God.
Always listen to the Holy Spirit at every time, and make sure you abide by His injunctions. Whatever He directs you to do, you must. Never allow financial problem to debar you from doing whatever God advises you to do. Any time you set of to do whatever God directs you. He is ever ready to accomplish such assignment for you by himself. The scripture has it that, as many as hear God’s word would follow Him. So always listen to Him and do not doubt His instructions, for by so doing you would be His, and salvation is yours. Do not fail to relate God’s message to whoever it is meant for, and do not claim to be a visioner. You are all visioners of God, and His mouthpiece.

HOPE IN GOD
submit yourself to Him always, and make sure your hope and boast is in Him. In so doing, He would lead you to the accurate knowledge of truth. Establish your faith and hope in Him. Do all that He directs you to do for his directives are true and wholesome. When the angel of God advised Joseph to flee with our Lord Jesus Christ, so that He would escape being killed by Herod, there was no trouble in the city. Joseph did not raise an objection to the instruction. In the same vein, you have to emulate what Joseph did by always keeping to whatever advice God gives you without asking questions. Read the Golden text again:

GOLDEN TEXT St. John 6: 45
“It is written in the Prophets, and they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore, that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.”

WHO ARE THE REAL CRUSADERS:
Beloved, following the excerpt above, it is a veritable truth, that as many as imbibe God’s words and practice them, would follow Him. While those who do not imbibe His words, and refuse to practice them. He would condemn. The many that do things out of their free volition, at the expense of God’s directive, would receive perdition as their reward. Let us be the set of Crusaders who imbibe and practise His words, so that we are called Crusaders by example.
When Saul attempted to kill David, David went and hid in a certain bush. Then God made it clear to David, that should he continue to hide there, Saul would kill him. He should therefore flee from the place. Immediately, David fled the place. You always sing that the spirit of the living God should come and lead you, as it is written, that He shall lead. There is no statement that neither a person nor an angel shall lead. Instead, it is the Holy Spirit who is to lead. Therefore, shun all other people’s leadership and subject yourself to His leadership alone.
The children of God are often informed of what would happen, before such event takes place, so that there is nothing happening in the world, which surprises them.
If you have not been taking the word of God seriously before. You should start now to practise them seriously. Whenever you are faced with one tribulation or the other, He is always there to tell you that the tribulation is a price for your disobedience, or is to test your faith in God. So always listen to Him so that you will be able to face any tribulation that befalls you with confidence.
If God instructs you not to board nor drive any vehicle throughout a certain interval of time, make sure you do just that. This is because there is a reason for giving you such instruction.

During Men’s Fellowship with the Father last week, the international chairman of the Fellowship testified, that when he came here last April, he knew that the Father would not fail to wash his feet among the twelve apostles. Hence, he decided to stay on till that night. Now a day to that day, one of the brethren who came with him that time, wanted him to accompany him home. The brother did not remember what he resolved to do and so he accompanied the brother home. On their way, they had a motor accident. During the time the Father performed the washing of the feet, the Father asked about this brother only to be informed that he had left for home. This brother blamed himself for being disobedient to the Father’s advice. This constitutes the problem we have in this Kingdom.
Disobedience brings diverse problems to human beings. That is why those whom the Father reveals Himself to and they refuse to recognise and embrace Him often have problems, as testified by many of our brethren.

Let those who have ears hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

Thank you Good Father.

“THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE HOLY GHOST AND THE PROMISED COMFORTER”

Our Lord Jesus Christ said to His disciples in Matthew 19: 11 “But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.” Also, “it is written in the prophets, and they shall be all taught of God. Everyman therefore that hath heard and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me”. (St. John 6: 45).

Now that Pastors, Reverends, Bishops etc, of Christendom receive lectures from Bible colleges and seminaries, is the spirit of God there? Or are they taught by God? The need for this article comes after many preachers have visited My quarters and preached what they do not know about the promise Jesus Christ made to His disciples in Acts 1: 1-5 and fulfilled in Act 2: 14. Intellectual Christians confuse the showering down of the “HOLY GHOST”, that descended on the apostles to mean the Comforter, John 16: 7-8.

The Father teaches the reality and leads to the consciousness of the truth about this. The Holy Ghost was the Spirit of the Patriarchs, which our Lord Jesus Christ released from bondage during His three days and three nights in the grave. These combination spirit: Unity of One, settled on the apostles making them to speak in different tongues according to their nationalities when they were in the physical nations. Then their respective tongues in Acts 2: 1-7. We should not regard this as the Promised Comforter, whose power is the first and the last. He is the ‘Greatest Teacher’. His magnetic and overwhelming power is not to be compared to or with that of the Holy Ghost of the day of Pentecost. What has confused the theologians of this age is that our Lord Jesus Christ did not mention how the Comforter will come from the Father. So with the absence of how John 15: 26 will manifest, they all conclusively believe that the Holy Ghost that descended upon the apostles was the Promised Comforter. The indisputable fact is that if the Comforter or the Teacher had come, nobody on earth would have killed any apostle. Not even a hair would have fallen from their heads. For the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

Take for instance, the members of Brotherhood, though they are full with sinfulness, no angel nor demon can strike any of them, even the smallest child in their midst since the comforter is in their midst. St. John 16: 13. Our Lord Jesus Christ did not mention how or when he will come. If He comes as any Christian brethren supposes, that is, as a spirit, no one will take notice of him. Our physical eyes believe in physical things and not in abstract things. But Jesus Christ did not come as an abstract influence, but the word, which was made flesh, and dwells among us, and we behold His glory.

The expression “WHEN HE COMES”, here refers to something that can be seen, touched and conversed with, not air as the Christians imagine. I want the theologians and wise men of this world to explain to the entire world if the pronoun “HE” can be used for things not seen with naked eyes.
In my understanding, “HE” here refers to a personality, not air. The Spirit takes form by passing through a woman so that human beings can see and touch him. If this is always the natural course for any spirit to become a human being, should the intellectual mind deceive you that the Comforter shall not have flesh and bones so that we may as usual behold His glory. The Comforter has arrived, taking the usual course of manifestation, for he who will do the duty of Comforter must be seen by those whom He comforts.

Let those who have ears hear. May God bless His Holy words. Amen.

Thank You Good Father.

THE DIVINE ULTIMATUM

FIRST LESSON: JOHN 4:23
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

SECOND LESSON: 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.

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 23:8
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.

THE PROMISES
Beloved,Our Lord Jesus Christ said, “All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.” (John 10:8). He also said “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24)
He has come to tell and teach you everything as was stated that, “Howbeit when he, the spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak, and he will shew you things to come”. (John 16:13)
What you have read would inform you that the Father is now on earth. Let us believe, accept and stand by Him. He is the only one who can lead and protect us. If we believe that the Holy Spirit has come, let us abide by His injunctions. He has come to lead us, therefore whether you are in the moon, sky, sun, earth or other places of manifest, you are enjoined to accept and abide by Him; for He has come for you. It is worth mentioning that every devilish act in the world has been destroyed and buried. To confirm this, Our Lord Jesus Christ said, ‘It is finished’.

Everything (idol) worshipped by man is dethroned, for the Holy Spirit has come to lead and direct. As far as the kingdom is concerned, He is the Leader, Guide, Guardians and Doer of everything. Many people waste their time studying the bible and carrying out investigations with a view to knowing the way of God. The Holy Spirit has now come to teach all things and lead you to the accurate knowledge of truth.
Other teachings apart from the ones that emanate from the Holy Spirit are vain and false. Remember it was stated thus: “When he, the spirit of Truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth, for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak, and he will shew you all things to come”. (John 16:13)
Noah and other prophets came and preached the word of God, but the Holy Spirit has come by Himself to teach and bring all things to light for you. Many people do not believe that the Holy Spirit has come, and those who believe are not carrying out His instructions. There is no difference between those who have not believed and those who believed but refused to carry out His injunctions.

According to the spiritual Chorus: “Good Shepherd, teach us thy way as the Creator”. He is the good shepherd and Creator. It is time we discard all mundane teachings imbibed from men and angels. Such teachings are out-dated and should be packed into the ‘museum’. The Holy Spirit has come to teach. The advice is for us to receive the teachings of the Holy Spirit since it is the only teaching meant for us.
Absorb the teachings and put them into practice. He has come to teach and lead us as it was destined. At no time has it been said that an angel or man will teach Man. It is only the Holy Spirit that has been destined to teach man; and He has come to do so.

THE EMERGENCE OF GOD
God has come to put into practice all His injunctions. He has come by Himself to teach love, peace, kindness, patience and other virtues of God. It is now our sole task to listen to the word of God and put it into practice. It should be noted that imparting the word of God to people and practising it are not similar. The man who practises the word of God is the one who is counted as righteous. The only way to practise the word of God is to abide by the teachings you have received. This is the only time you have to practise the word of God wherever you are; for such are the people needed by God. The Father is day in day out teaching us what He is. Endeavour to practise what you have seen and what you have heard from Me; for this is the right time meant for everyone to practise the word.
The Law of Moses stipulates, ‘return every slap for every slap received’ because then it is an eye for an eye’. What would we gain if we adhere to this law? What would be the sign of you being children of God? Some people assert that, God has no children. If God has no children, who are you? Are we not the children of God? The teachings brought in this era would attract salvation to us if put into practice. If we love the people we see, it would mean we love God and conversely, if we love God, we would love the people we see. It is stated: ‘if you love not the man, which you have seen with your eyes, how then can you love God, which you see not? If you cannot venerate man whom you see, how can you pass the veneration to God, the unseen being?

THE PURPOSE OF HIS COMING
It is as a result of the problems in the world that the Holy Spirit has come by Himself to teach and lead us to the accurate knowledge of truth. Therefore, you are to abide by the teachings of the Holy Spirit. Beloved, so long as God is love, we must love one another, sanctify our body and abide by His injunctions, because He has come to lead and teach us. The Father has stated that God is light and they that are God’s must refrain from the work of darkness and follow light for God Himself is light. Once there is light, darkness disappears, because darkness and light are incompatible. Everything regarded, as powerful is God. Everything good and pleasant is God.
All righteousness, truthfulness and light are God. Although churches wage war against Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, yet when the light of God overshadow them, they are frightened and run away. It is because of this that:

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.” (John 4:19-22)
Now He has come with His doctrine, you should love one another, remain united, desist from eating of meat, and fish, and refrain from fornication, adultery, backbiting, murder as well as other forms of atrocities. It is only when you abide by His instructions that you have no problems. We should be thankful to the Father for the words given to us. And as the children of God, let us put His words into practice. Your problems lie in your refusal to practise the word of God. You would have no problems if you abide by His love and injunctions.

Let our first lesson be read again.

FIRST LESSON JOHN 4:23
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.”
SPIRITUAL CHORUS: ‘I have come by myself; so that the strayed sheep would not perish’.

GOD OF REDEMPTION
Now, the Father has come by Himself to redeem us from bondage of the devil. All those who abide by His teachings shall be free. If you have not done anything to show that you are a child of God, God Himself would not recognise you. Let all your deeds prove that you are a child of God and let your fruits be that of God. Your deeds should not constitute confusion before God, but should expose and displease the works of the devil. Endeavour to always practise the injunctions of God. How can you overcome the world and become a man of God, if you do not stop seeking mundane things but seek God’s ordinances?
It would be very difficult to see or communicate with God when you do not abide by His injunctions. It is only obedient children who stand by, accept, recognise, glorify and have regard for God’s words that would dwell with Him till eternity. The light has come to illuminate the work of all men. Therefore, abide by His words and forget the teachings of the carnal prophets. The Father and the Holy Spirit have come to teach mankind. Find consolation in the words of God so you could overcome all the evil around you. Invite the Holy Spirit into your heart. He is the light, way, truth and life. The world and its passions shall pass away, but the word of God shall reign forever.

Let our second lesson be read:

SECOND LESSON: 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 NAKED TRUTH
Brethren, I have always told you the truth that the Holy Spirit has come and salvation has been extended to you. All things shall pass away but the word of God shall never pass away. Not even an iota (of His words) shall be laid to waste until all are fulfilled. The salvation of God shall be extended to us on condition that we abide by His injunctions. We have been told that God is a Spirit. That spirit is now teaching us everything. God is light and truth. Whosoever continues in truth is of God.
Christ said,

“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. (John 15:1-2)
He also revealed that saying, “And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.” (John 10:16)

THE ONLY JUDGE
God is responsible for what you now see in the world. God is the only judge. Accordingly, you should refer all your problems to Him. He is the three in one God; Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. Commit all your problems to the only ruler of the universe; go from house to house preaching the word of God, and evangelising the world with divine word, which you have heard. If you had done these and converted others, the blessings of God could have been yours. This is the new teaching that He has brought to us.

THE LAST MANIFESTATION
Have you not seen what is happening in Nigeria and the world at large? This is the last manifestation. It is only those who abide in Him that shall be saved. You are dead if you are without the Holy Spirit of God. But if you have the Holy Spirit, you are free; you would be with God and God with you till eternity. Remain in Him and abide by His teachings. The Holy Spirit is not in you as long as you do not have love.
The Comforter has come and all His children shall be with Him. Those who speak evil against the Holy Spirit have already perished. The Holy Spirit has come to teach peace, joy, love, and truth. He says, “Call no other man teacher for He (Holy Spirit) is the only Teacher”. I want you to realise that love is the foundation of the kingdom. Love is the foundation of all virtues and fortunes. We should rejoice that the Holy Spirit has come to reign in His kingdom. Every carnal thing has been cast away, and the people in existence fall under the canopy of the Holy Spirit.

Let the golden text be read again.

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 23:8
“But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.”
Beloved, just as you have heard from the texts, you are equally the pillars of this ministry. It does not stop at only learning. Learning is not complete until that, which is learnt is put into practice.

THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL CENTRE, ITS TASK
This Gospel must spread throughout the world. The Everlasting Gospel Centre should disseminate this Gospel to the world. Every Gospel should be recorded, translated, edited, typed, proof-read, re-edited, sent to the Father for final reading and corrections made and published for the world to read. This is their work, to evangelise the world through the Father’s Gospel. If you know how to fight, quarrel, gossip and engage in other types of sin, from henceforth refrain from all those vices because the Holy Spirit has come to reveal the secret of the kingdom to you.
Through you there would be no more problem in the world, and also through you there would be peace in the world. Refrain from doing the things that do not glorify the Father. Adhere to the words of God so that the Father would be glorified. Remember that He said, “For unto the hypocrites, unto the Pharisees and unto those who do not keep my Father’s commandment, I shall say unto them, depart from me ye workers of iniquities”.
Therefore, refrain from sin and embrace love and righteousness. This is why I teach you love and also practise it. If we should abide by His teachings, everybody would be saved and through you they would know God. Propagate love in the world because with the Holy Spirit love covers iniquities of man. All the carnal teachings of the world shall be cast into a lake of fire. The teachings received by lawyers, police, soldiers and the entire world are what would destroy them. As true Brotherhood, stop listening to angels and man. Only listen to the Holy Spirit. Let the Holy Spirit be the one to direct you throughout your life, so that it might be well with you till eternity.

Beloved, a stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. Let those who have ears, hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the entire world. Amen.

Thank You Good Father.

THE FINAL NOTICE

Do not leave sin too late …repent

PERPARATORY WORDS
This Everlasting Gospel delivered by the Sole spiritual Head, KING of Kings and LORD of Lords of the Universe, LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU, is remarkable for its timely warning and intense pronouncements.
Although painstaking care has been taken to translate the sentences and expressions from their original flawless vernacular into the English Language, that attempt to mediate these everlasting Word of God can only be approximate. The occasionally repetitive rhetorics of this homily are to emphasise the depth, power and seriousness of the AUTHOR and THE WORD.
Readers who make the effort to absorb the contents, not intellectually but spiritually, cannot fail to discern that illumination which is essentially the birthright of the Children of God as it is only they who “hear the word of God’ (John 8:47)
It is advisable not to treat this message with contempt because it has not been accompanied by a whirlwind advertorial with raging reviews; trumpeting headlines nor high profiled celebrity campaign. Indeed, most relevant messages remain so by their straightforwardness and sheer simplicity. This is it!
THE CHRIST UNIVERSAL SPIRITUAL COUNCIL OF CHURCHES Of the BROTHERHOOD 0F THE CROSS & STAR

Now takes the supreme privilege and pleasure of presenting to all and sundry the WORD of the Almighty God as expressed in THE FINAL NOTICE.

PREAMBLE: 1. Hear the word of God …
(Response: Thank you Father!)
2. You may fall down on your faces… indeed, fall down on your faces in worship of the Almighty God…
3. Our God is no respecter of persons …

1st Lesson
“I charge thee therefore before God, and the 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.” 1 Timothy 4: 1-2(KJV)

2nd Lesson
“Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, nut on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house; Let you light so shine before men, that they may see your good work, and glorify your Father which is in heaven”. Matthew 5:15-16(KJV)

Golden Text
“And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and
brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.” Revelation: 20:8-1O(KJV)

FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS…
This message is brought up for every variety of persons and groups within the entire Universe and these include:
* those who lack faith … who do not stand firm;
* those who glory in being obstinate;
* those who claim to be in possession of personal and family shrines and fetishes and those who claim affiliation with magic, enchanters and other forms of divination and demigods …

To these people I strongly urge them to stand firm because this gospel is particularly meant for them. Furthermore, the gospel is equally directed to:
* all those who feel scornful, highly positioned and therefore claim to lead
* all those who continuously harass the household and the family of God.
* all those who lay claim to various aspects of power, prowess and feats of strength
* those who believe they are capable of performing a variety of wonders even to the extent of boasting more hard-heartedness than the pig-headed Pharaoh
* himself if the same era were to be replicated or re-enacted today…
To all these assortments of persons, I further urge that they stand firm and gird their loins because something ominous has piled up and is looming closer and closer than ever before.

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE … A glimpse of the danger…
Therefore, arising from this impending doom, I counsel that you go and spread this message to all and advise those who seek life to climb down in absolute humility and total self-abnegation; in obedience to, and ready compliance with, the instructions of the Almighty God.
This instruction is compelling because the imminent war is not physical but a spiritual one which peculiarly defies and maintains a total difference from all conventional weapons like clubs and cudgels: slings / bows /arrows; guns / tanks and inter-continental ballistic missiles. It is the War of the Lord’s Day already foretold by a religious anthem, which eloquently reveals that:

“It is the fullness of time and the Father has ordered:

• death to commence its work
• swords to commence their work
• plagues to commence their work
• famine to commence its work
• and ALL other weapons of death to commence their work”
Have you not witnessed these events lately …?

ACKNOWLEDGE GODS SUPPEMACY THROUGH HEEDING DIVINE INSTRUCTIONS
Verily, whoever fails to acknowledge the supremacy of God deserves pity. He does not appreciate what is steadily coming on which, to put is succinctly, is complete extinction. Advise all and sundry; advise yourselves with equal vehemence and sincerity that all should turn towards the path of rectitude. Furthermore, while you are on this mission, avoid the hypocrisy of double standards, lies, deceits, dissimulation and contentions because the times are not to be toyed with although God intends that all be saved.
Indeed, He comes with many destructive weapons, which I cannot recount, to you. In my usual way, when I am about to end any sermon, 1 will conclude by requesting those who have ears to hear … which is exactly my intention so that none will claim ignorance of this message.

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP…
If you embark on a war with some 10,000 men against an opponent confirmed to be ready with an overwhelming 20,000 similarly equipped warriors, is it not advisable that you hasten towards a truce and an eventual peace treaty to avert the alternative of your being completely wiped out? BE WARNED to desist from harbouring the wrong notion that God is incapable of any measured response when challenged! I assure you that God can respond in any way. If only people knew what has already transpired and what is about to happen, none would warn anybody against the practice of ANY evil no matter how little … even when such an evil appears as ordinary as offering a rebuke; extending an insult and or expressing anger. The weapons in question are not physical armaments, but spiritual and unseen; and nothing in the world can alter their set goals and objectives when unleashed.
Emphatically, be assured that God’s weapons defy all combined super-power (Britain, United States and Russia) containment.

GOD’S WEAPON IS THAT SWORD; be not deceived … repent…
Therefore, let us hear and heed this admonition, hence 1 am using today, the first day of the week to make this clarion call to all those who take God’s much vaunted vengeance as a distant joke and cynically wonder whether or where God has got missiles, warships and war planes. Such a misconception merely raises the question as to whether these physical armaments are, in fact, anything to go by. All the physical weapons when compared with the spiritual ones are mere toys fit for the scrap – heap. Know ye therefore that the real weapon is:
* the SWORD that proceeds from His mouth
* that SWORD that proceeds from the mouth of God…
that sword is what He uses to discipline, within a second, all those who act in defiance of His ordinance. The whole world put together has no weapon and therefore no defence at all. Our only defence is to completely submit to God and depart from evil.
Do not wait to be told to abstain from sin. Refraining from all manner of sinfulness is the only way to save you from the impending doom.
A GLIMPSE OF GOD’S OTHER WEAPONS …
Some examples of these weapons of war available here include the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, otherwise referred to as AIDS; Diabetes; Kwashiorkor; Cancer; Asthma etc. the totality of which are not only numerous but defy any therapy and can, without any warning, render one useless within a moment. Therefore, today’s admonition is to enable you refrain from murder, lies, stealing, fornication, adultery, deceits and all other acts of sinfulness which evil people wrongfully associate with heroism or power. In their thinking, to forego these tendencies denies them of a preconceived aggressive valour. Please be NO MORE a hero in committing evil.
Be assured that all displays of power and negative greatness have received the death knell and had been finished with.

RESIST NOBODY IF THREATENED
Emphatically the weapons available here are not physical ones. BE WARNED! Yes, Brotherhood, it is claimed, warns that to avoid perdition, all manner of evil like murder, stealing; armed robbery, adultery, fornication stubbornness etc should stop.
It further urges that we live in peace, anger not; express love and humility in order to escape this on-coming spiritual war. It advises that you should NOT RESIST if anyone threatens you so as NOT to divest yourself of this everlasting life to which we are all entitled … otherwise, you will find yourself highly disadvantaged.
Should you insist on following the path of vengeance I will merely waive you a sorrowfully resigned goodbye. Since you can neither control nor combat this on-coming onslaught, the only way out is to abstain from all evil and adhere sheepishly to the instructions of the Almighty God.

THE DANGER IS REAL
Brethren, I say these things with absolute zeal and conviction and I FURTHER assure you that the conviction, enthusiasm and zest with which I say all you are hearing today far exceed those of the distant past. If you were to know what is on going, you would pity all murderers, armed robbers and the obstinate ones. In reality, none can afford to be obstinate. Let our FIRST LESSON be re-examined.
“I charge thee therefore before God, and the 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.” 1 Timothy 4: 1-2(KJV
THE UPHEAVALS MORE DEVASTATING THAN PROPHESIED
Even the prophecies of Our Lord Jesus Christ disclosed to the disciples in the Scripture regarding the End-of-Time upheavals, do not constitute one-tenth of what is about to happen. You will see; for instance, that a whole country, like Nigeria or indeed, an entire continent like the Americas disappear completely from the earth? Can you imagine the whole landmass of Africa and its contents ceasing to exist in just one day? These days, European nationals of the world powers, with all their knowledge, technological advancement in arms etc. are lying low with dreaded silence. Do you still find nationals of these countries brag and arrogate airs of superiority to themselves? These observations only confirm that evidence has convincingly emerged of something which nobody ever imagined or expected would happen. Therefore, if things should be like this with the so-called men and nations of eminence, what do you think of yourselves who, by the usual yardsticks, are no better? Is it not safe for all to remain quiet and live in humility allowing the Almighty God to freely shower his grace, mercies and salvation on us…? BE WARNED! Be equally assured that against this spiritual warfare:
* death can not compete with it:
* ailments/plagues have no power over it;
* wants cannot measure up to it;
* swords/machetes and guns and all those physical weapons with which we pride ourselves and hope upon are nothing to go by.

FEAR NO MAN-MADE THREAT/POWER
It is for this reason that we in this fold are unperturbed and I advise that you NEITHER deter NOR fear any of those who threaten you with armed robbery; assassinations; deceits and vexations of all kinds. Dare these people and give them ample opportunity to exhibit their nuisances so that they can come face to face with that disarming and disciplinary FORCE/POWER which was revealed to Nebucchadnezzar (as interpreted by Prophet Daniel) and summarised as follows: –
‘…that before the end of time, various forces/powers will flourish and operate in sequence ……… but at the of it all, ONE particular force/power will emerge to dominate, subdue and swallow EVERY other power/force before it. … … ‘
Now, consider or think over those words. If all of you here were to have the knowledge of hearing and heeding these admonitions, men of anger including armed robbers etc, would crawl on their knees in repentance and would be so deterred from crime to the extent that monies piled up in unguarded and unsecured drums would remain untouched as they would never be stolen by thieves or armed robbers. Were all assassins, troublemakers, men of anger, thieves etc. to know what this End-of Time portends, none would question this message except to heed the charge urging us:
‘In the Name of Jehovah God and His Christ to preach the word of God in and out of season reprove and admonish with patience, long suffering, compassion and tolerance in every way possible.’
because of the great disaster awaiting mankind. Its form and nature can never be imagined or described. The vernacular adage says:
“neither its tail nor head can be ascertained … “
Brethren, something is both heating up and fusing close to explosion! The song just raised translates this message as:
“Let the sinner think of himself to avert perdition even in the face of all the agony and suffering (of Christ) on the cross.
and its relevance is not in doubt.

TESTIMONY OF THAT POWER … In the offensive
Recall that when recently, the Nigerian Government sent in armed troops to put down disturbances between two warring communities within its Niger Delta region, series of ironies emerged. Firstly, the armed troops sent to disarm and keep the rioters at bay found themselves, to their utter surprise, inexplicably disarmed by the two warring factions on both sides! Secondly, members of the Brotherhood of the Cross & Star, operating within the vicinity of both communities and without any physical weapon whatsoever, became the ones who kept the peace and provided the welfare for all sides. Thirdly, although unarmed, both warring groups entreated members to keep away from, and not to walk in their white garments, near or around some designated areas. It was reported that these outing activities deadened or neutralised the talisman or fetishes used to prosecute the communal war! Have you heard that? Do you know, brethren, that you are all antidotes or tranquillisers and neutralisers to appease any force whether physical or spiritual? Most of you within this kingdom are not even aware of the implication of the power available here and with which you are fortified … how much more the implication of this kingdom! Know fully well that once dressed in this white garment after baptism, you are robed in Christ and fittingly identified as a ‘fearsome being’!
But, quite frankly, do you know this? that you are all fearsome beings? Does anyone know this much?

TESTIMONY OF THAT POWER … On the Preventive
Let me refer you to the testimony about a male flirt who sought to enchant a young sister of this fold as his sex partner and so consulted a confessed magician (now a member) to prepare the charms that will seduce the girl for his purpose. After several attempts to lure the young lady into a sexual relationship, the magician confessed all his devilish efforts to the lady and asked her what sort of protection she had that so continuously defied all his magical charms directed to affect her. The poor girl did not even know what answer to give, as she did not know whether she was invested with any power or not…! WHO amongst you all here knows whether he or she is spiritually empowered or protected? Who, in fact, knows himself or herself? Ironically, most of you are still afraid of one thing or the other.
But the day year eyes (including those of evil doers, will open, none will steal nor commit any act of sin. Note that only one day the entire world will be silenced into submission and acceptance and peace will reign. To make this emphatically clear, I am not saying that this will happen in two days; I say it will happen in just ONE DAY – the very day the implication of this Kingdom of the Brotherhood of the Cross & Star is made known to you. Know also that only one angel can devastate the entire world in a second.
Do you know this…?

you who claim that you are not in subjection to any power/force

you who claim that you are indifferent to what any man says

you who claim that even The Almighty God descending from above cannot deter you from your pet intention or chosen course of action?
Do you know what God is? Some of you even pretend to be God.
Does that Name not frighten you? Well, I stand in awe and fear of that name! The song rendered which translates as:
“Olumba has overcome the war … The work of the flesh has ended”.
should be fully noted. Let our 2nd Lesson be read again:
“Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, nut on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house; Let you light so shine before men, that they may see your good work, and glorify your Father which is in heaven”. Matthew 5:15-16(KJV)

BROTHERHOOD IS UNIVERSAL
Brotherhood of the Cross & Star has manifested itself in its true and powerful perspective to the good of every person and all accepts it as the last hope of mankind and of the entire world. Nevertheless certain persons/groups/communities do rise to attack it in some ways as was the case recently where a community summoned one of my missionaries of one our healing homes to a Kangaroo Court and ordered him to disclose the source of healing power so freely displayed and prevalent in the Brotherhood of the Cross & Star. If he failed, they reportedly insisted, the establishment should be closed down and be taken elsewhere.
Anyone who happens to come from that community should be in fervent player. If one had never heard of Brotherhood of the Cross & Star, it is herein made clear that the action from that community tantamount to unbridled effrontery: but none will challenge those who engage in such unworthy enterprise. They will be properly encouraged BECAUSE that happens to be one of the dramatic ways with which the Almighty God encircles those he wishes to use for His services.
LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE …as repercussions are disastrous…
The Almighty God does not engage in warring ventures but wants us to live in peace. This notwithstanding, certain baits exist which lead many fools to wade into where angels fear to thread only for the former to get totally quagmired. Note that if you do not tempt God, nothing uncomfortable happens to you. Some people exist who have negative traits, which they wisely recognise and thoughtfully suppress or keep in check. On the other hand, there are also some others who, though aware of their shortcomings, thoughtlessly allow themselves to be carried away by a compelling longing to be heroic or to boost their ego only to get entrapped by the disciplinary force prevailing here. So also are some other people whose time has been duly appointed by providence to confront the Brotherhood. . And in so doing, get caught up in the exercise.
These latter categories of persons are reminiscent of a man who contemplates suicide and goes to play with the tail of a serpent and the local pidgin English puts it as:
‘trouble dey sleep, nyanga go wake am’
which translates classically as:
“trouble serenely lies asleep only for empty and curious pride to incite it to furry”
The insult of detaining, coupled with the idle and vain cross-examination of that Brother (as to the powers inherent in this Kingdom: so brazenly displayed by that community referred to above will attract its proper repercussion in due course; and all who are wondering what will happen as a result of that brinkmanship will watch the full drama as it unfolds for them to see or hear… PLEASE BE WARNED that most communities did pass through that ordeal! Know ye all that Brotherhood of the Cross & Star is irresistible and unassailable. It comes up ANYWHERE and at ANYTLME and manifests itself at will and has no pleading whatsoever with any person or group. These admonitions as herein NOTIFIED are not only for those who resist it but includes all those who engage in ungodly acts.

BE STEADFAST
THERFORE, brethren, I further repeat my counselling that we all labour to promote love because the world has seen this illuminating light radiating from, and the salvation available in the Brotherhood whose virtues are no longer hidden. Allow nothing to startle or frighten you. Even if the entire world including armed assailants were to gang up against you with various armaments, do not fear because they are all bound for destruction in the great fire. Neither invite nor deter them but continue steadfastly to enable the result of your good works to unfold; for it is through your excellent accomplishments that the Almighty God attracts those destined for salvation to come in. Since you do not catch a thief in your vineyard by noisy alarm, so also you cannot extend this clarion call by noise and alarm but by silently focussing your radiance for all to behold and gain entrance into the household of the Almighty God.

END OF SIN
Very soon, you will not find ONE single armed robber in Nigeria even in Africa. Neither even magicians nor assassins etc will operate to due course. Even now, those things merely exists in your various imaginations based on the fears you harbour over people’s ability to harm you with ordinary moulded scarecrows, disguises etc. When you allow your mind to be disturbed, you falter and are dead even before you realise it.
When you have the accurate knowledge of the truth over these dramatised and illusory fetishes, divination, etc.; you will move with confidence without any bother. All those fears based on make-believe fetishes; divination, demigods, magic etc. are mere illusions. They are all groundless and do not exist. Be it known that this is:

the era of the Almighty God

the era of peace

the era of love

the era of oneness
An era which is devoid of anger and rancour. Therefore I plead that we all live in love and peace. If you wish to do good, go ahead; otherwise stay quiet, humble, meek and, with sustained merciful disposition. WATCH with your eyes and await what is unfailingly looming closer and closer. God does not wish that we perish; His enduring patience operates to give us sufficient NOTICE for repentance despite our vain utterances. This should not be mistaken for weakness or inability to control the situation.
He is merely ensuring that His promises are kept despite our continuance in evil doings. Inevitably, the wisdom of our ancient sages which warns that:
“The stubborn chicken heeds instructions in the pot of soup (that is after it has been slaughtered)”
will operate against all infidels and rebels. When warnings and admonitions have been persistently drummed into your ears persuading you to desist from sinful acts of murder; stealing; lies; adultery, fornication etc. etc, and you reject all these, it takes only one day for the repercussions to affect the unrepentant ones adversely. God is no respecter of persons and we all know that He only has to blaze forth his frown for us to fall by the sword.
PREACHING IS MANDATORY … No matter the circumstances

If you: lack money

Lack strength

have no house

lack good health or are ill and, whatever your problems may be,
try to entreat and admonish people with pleadings, by going from house to house and urging them to abandon sinfulness anger, malice, counting sins for others and refrain from challenging the will of God but to maintain a lowly, humble and meek posture. BE WARNED! as there is neither repentance nor salvation in the grave. All things have been accomplished, truly fulfilled and the era of the Almighty God properly ushered in and effectively established.
The song that translates as:
“All things have come to manifestation/fulfilment; I am the Alpha and the Omega. Halleluyah, Amen”
remains significant and valid today.

THE FINAL NOTICE.. No other power exists
After such a long rope, this is the FINAL NOTICE I am giving to the entire world Do not misconstrue its finality to mean that Brotherhood of the cross & Star is cowardly or fearful of any situation; powerless: incapable of any imagined feat that the brain of man can conceive … Indeed, what can the Kingdom not achieve … ?
Nothing is beyond its reach. It is EVERYTHING. It is the beginning and the end.
All the heavenly hosts and the earth know it including the waters beneath. All things created and uncreated submit to it … including the angels. Therefore, the emphatic question remains to be:
‘WHO are you to flout instructions and neither hears nor heeds the Word of God? ? ? !!!
Have you ever heard of its fame? Even as far back as the time of Lot when his wife was asked to proceed without a pin out of Sodom and not to look back…
But for merely remembering her treasured trinket box and looking back in disobedience she has remained, till today, a pillar of salt. This syndrome will affect a number of people so as to firmly establish the word of God; as I see no reason, despite warnings, for continued disobedience to the ordinances of God. Even Europeans have relaxed their tendencies towards sin and other insulting and contesting acts of pretending to be God with or within any of the elements. Know that no other power exists either on land, air, water, fire etc. What you witness here is nothing but the real power of The Almighty God who Himself has made His dramatic advent. Meanwhile let me say this to you all: tell all and sundry including mothers and fathers; brothers and sisters; sons and daughters; parapsychologists and fetish priests; contenders or and war mongers that all those beggarly elements hitherto regarded as symbolising power, (whether in physical weaponry or magic etc) have been confined to oblivion and are no longer in existence. They should come forward and obtain peace.
Another song which translates as:
‘No other power takes dominion except God’s rulership and glory which is everlasting’
is valid please.

THAT QUESTION…. THAT ANSWER…
Next, I say this to clarify the points raised by that incident (already referred to above) where that member of this fold was subjected to detention and cross examination over the source of power inherent in this kingdom. Neither he nor any of the members present at that gathering know or knew exactly what to say in answer to that vain and harassing cross-examination. In answer to that question, let me tell you this … listen and you will see it now… That all surmounting power:

which defies water

which is an awesome thing even feared by the waters….

which will set these mighty oceans, seas, rivers, lakes and rivulets ablaze…
and not a single hay, whether in the heavens above nor within the earth beneath will be left untouched EXCEPT He, that Almighty power that pervades and prevails and which will remain unfazed, unshaken and immovable … This power as herewith confided is neither from men …

nor from any demigod

not from magic

not through money

not from spirit

nor the angels nor any other
thing to be conceived of but from:
WHAT YOU SEE HERE AND WHAT YOU ARE HEARING NOW.
Therefore, we MUST have to fear Him … and, if you were a stubborn child, please turn a new leaf…

CHRIST’S ANSWERING METHODS
Our Lord Jesus the Christ did forewarn that:
“all that was done to me will be extended to you if they believed me, they will believe you also; if they disbelieved me, they will disbelieve you also. I tell you this so that none would have any excuse to absolve himself”
Again, when Jesus the Christ used questions to answer questions: when the Jews prompted by idle curiosity confronted Christ with a question as to the source of his power; whether from man; our Lord’s rejoinder was similarly questioning as to demand the source of John’s baptism; whereby both the admission of the baptism being from God was as fatal as its denial. In their limitation, they chose and claimed ignorance to hide the fact that if John’s baptism were to be advertised as sourced from God, the issue of their non-belief in John’s mission would be held against them. If, in the alternative, it was claimed to be of man, the crowd would, in their anger over John’s downgrading as a prophet of God, stone the questioners to death.
This is the way to treat all those who, knowing you are of the Brotherhood fold, confront you members with petty and idle questions about the Kingdom. Do not go beyond their self imposed limits for that would be insulting to the Almighty God of Hosts … and NO MAN can dare the insult to God’s condescension of graciously opening the way of salvation for all arising from the mediating role of His only begotten son based on the shedding of that precious and innocent blood.
Outside that, who could have dared any insult on the Divine … who is in fact the God of Hosts…?

THE POWER SOURCE…
Without much ado pay attention to where this power comes from as we take a recast of our Golden Text:
“And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.” Revelation: 20:8-1O(KJV)
Have you heard that…?
That is the answer to the source of power; and if one should dare any of those idle questions, you may see fire consuming one but the Father does not intend any of these extreme happenings because His mercies and abiding covenant are far greater than we can ever imagine and do override the ridicule and mockery with which we regard Him.
OUR JOY: The Finale
Our greatest joy lies in the fact that no matter the source and fury of the raging flames from the heavens above, His children can neither be touched nor torched! Should the source of this disaster erupt from the earth beneath, His children will remain unaffected! No power, whether sourced through man, trees / forest; fire /water / air/land exists to shake His children! Indeed, in the face of any danger or risk to life, His children are fortified and protected from all of them.

The song which translates as:
“This Almighty God should be strongly held unto …
This Wonderful God should be tenaciously held unto.
remains relevant.

I have finished. At the end of every admonition, our Lord the Christ would always ask those with ears to hear … Don’t you have ears? Therefore, let whoever have ears, hear and may God bless his Holy words. Amen!!!

THE FIRST SON OF GOD

FIRST LESSON: HEBREWS 1: 6

And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.

SECOND LESSON: HEBREWS 2: 8
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREWS 7: 25
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Brethren, that is the story about Our Lord Jesus Christ. His story has got no beginning and no end. It is stated that when He is brought back, all angels of God will come and worship Him. You will note that if this covenant was established from the beginning lucifer would have bowed down too and worshipped Him. It was written that all must bow down to Him. If all the angels of God are commanded to bow down to Him, what is man to resist Him? You must note very well that the first Son and the Father are One. Do not make any mistake, believe that we all are the sons of God, but Our Lord Jesus Christ is the first Son of God. Have you ever heard that a father possesses more than one first son? If even your children are as many as the sands at the seashore, there must be a first son.

That is exactly our position with Our Lord Jesus Christ, the first Son of God. Among all the creatures of God, Christ is the first Son and He is also the last. He is the first, that is why He says that the Father and He are one. The Son cannot do without the Father and the Father cannot do without the Son. He says, “None knows the Son but the Father, except the Son reveals Him to whosoever He will”, “No one can come to me except my Father calls him”. No one can also go to the Father except through Christ. Everything Our Lord Jesus Christ says reflects the Father and the Father on the other hand mentions His Son at all times, “This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, hear ye Him”. A spiritual song goes thus, “The heavens declare the glory of God and obey Him, but the earth reject Him”.

When it is said that a single angel can destroy the world, you all jeer but I had earlier told you that the winds are angels, the sand, water, animal, sun, moon and the Star inclusive, even the thunder and lighting are God’s messengers. This is why as soon as Christ lifted up His hands in command everything subjects to Him. Whenever you call on His name everything is subdued in obedience to what was written.

MAN’S STUBBORNNESS DESPITE GOD’S LOVE

Who are you man, to resist His rule and to refused paying Him obeisance? This is the only problem I have with you. “To, which of the angels has He ever said, I have begotten you”? But God has begotten Our Lord Jesus Christ as it is stated, “When He bringeth in the first begotten into the world, He saith, and let all the angels of God worship Him”. God did not say He bringeth in the angels; He states categorically that when He bringeth in the first begotten. He did not say when He sends angel Gabriel. We are expressly told that when the Son of God shall come, all the angels will worship Him. Therefore, brethren, ask yourself a simple question “What is our position”? This should prove to you that Our Lord Jesus Christ is the King of kings.

Be not mistaken that when He comes, He will go from house to house preaching and offering prayers to the sick. Do not conjecture that when He comes He will go about healing diverse infirmities. I know you will say that He is a friend of sinners and so forth but do not forget that He made Himself a sacrifice once and for all; and there is no sin that has power over Him. His coming now is mainly to save those who have been patiently waiting for Him. He has come to rule every house with mercy, patience and love. This is why occultists declare that there is no more power anywhere, as Christ has come to rule with His Father. All angels like fire, water and all other elements, take orders from Him only; should you try you will surely fail because these angels are under the rule of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Even if you command death to destroy one’s life it will not obey you, since its power is under the rule of Christ. It is significant to note that when it is said that all angels will bow down to Him it also means that they will serve Him. Do not misconstrue that when He comes down on earth, you will be opportuned to have Him for a conversation of any kind, because He does not welcome any familiarity.

THE GREAT MONARCH

He is now on the throne while His angels exercise duties and act according to instructions. This system can be likened to the system of rule during the colonial days whereby the Queen sat on the throne while the deputies worked in the various colonies; to be more precise, here is a system the sovereign rules over everywhere through agents. It is sacrilege to ask Christ to offer you prayers or to make an attempt of shaking hands with Him; even to ask Him any question. It is quite true that when a person is not yet crowned, he mixes freely with any society, thereby any person could rub shoulders or converse with him. Once his position is changed and uplifted, everything about him changes such that he would be cut off from a common contact and unnecessary familiarity. If the Emirs of the Northern States are so reverenced, being mere human beings as they are, of what measure do you think that of Christ should be, being that He is the King of kings and Lord of lords. The Queen of England and her princes are honoured while they are placed in this esteemed position yet they are nothing more than common human beings, before the angels of God. By all means Our Lord Jesus Christ is to be honoured far more than the earthly kings, because He is a King according to the Promise. This is why a higher position and honour in any society is given to whoever passes through Christ to the Father. He said, “I am the way, the truth and the life, nobody cometh unto the Father but by me”.

Now that you profess that you do not know Him, how would you be saved? If you vow that you will never bow down for Him; who is He that will secure your salvation? If you do not reverence and honour Him through whom will you enter into the Kingdom of heaven? As a sovereign, Christ will not execute any duty except through His angels who are spread everywhere to carry out His order. You could be arrested, rebuked or hanged, then how will you escape?

Christ’s Government is the best so far because no angels can act except He receives instructions from Him. It is unlike the chaos existing amidst the worldly governments and her servants. This is a note of warning to anybody who doubted Him to doubt no more. Because all authorities in heaven and on earth have been given to Him before the foundations of the earth were laid. This is a well known fact to all angels even lucifer, the ocean, the forest, the sunshine. You are of the opinion that you will invoke angel Gabriel or project in order to see God but the question is, “where will you find them? The false prophets hold the same opinion, but I ask to know, which God they mean to see through astral projection? There is none permitted to contact God except Christ. If you like project into the last sphere, you will not meet with Our Lord Jesus Christ. If you go into the depth of the sea, He is permanently there. There is no place Christ is not available. Brethren, there is no alternative than to accept Christ as your Lord and Master. If you refuse Him, He will not ill treat you but remember that you will never escape the execution of His angels.

THE DECREES OF CHRIST

Christ has got His own edict concerning the division of labour in His Government, just as you have got assignment for the warders, the soldiers, and other law enforcement agents. When you are told that the kingdom of this world has become the Kingdom of God and His Christ, do not take it for a joke. His reign cannot be compared with the earthly dynasty. The work in His Kingdom continuously goes according to His divine purpose; no angel can ask Him any question. This is why it is said that it is unreasonable to get up and ask God, “Give me this or give me that,” Jesus do this or do that for me.” That is not the case. The condition is that you must pass through the correct channel, which is Our Lord Jesus Christ; that is why in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star we ask God foreverything through the name and blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Note that there is no use of forceful methods. At the fullness of time, His supremacy will be revealed to all. Because there is nothing whatsoever that is not under His reign. If you commit sin, there is no other person to plead on your behalf other than Christ. He is the Prime Minister of God. There is none who has attended such holiness to be an advocate for you than Him.

This is why He said that whatever He opens, none can close and whatever He closes, none can open. There is no other way for you to obtain a relief from your suffering, there is no other defender and there is no advocate other than Our Lord Jesus Christ. You have been warned never to impute sins on people because a sin is like a gutter, which when you have fallen into, the stain is difficult to remove from your clothings. This is why Paul lamented, “O wretched man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this sin?” Only Christ can save. Despite all your endeavours and sufferings if you do not accept Christ as your personal saviour, your efforts are in vain. You may credit yourself that you have given alms to the needy, that you have fed the hungry and have raised the dead; know that none of these deeds of kindness can save you except you accept Our Lord Jesus Christ as everything for you. If you have ever been stubborn to Him or have refused to listen to Him be prayerful because as long as it was said that all the angels will bow to Him, you are so insignificant for Him to be mindful of your refusal to accept Him as the King of kings.

CHASING SHADOWS INSTEAD OF SUBSTANCE

Is it not wonderful that you waste much time to acquire money but cannot spent even one minute for Christ? Christ is here, He was before the foundations of the world were laid; have you any doubt? If you disbelieve this truth, that is your problem.

Until this world passes away, He will never come to your doorpost to announce that He is Christ; nor would any person descend from above to tell you, “I am the Christ.”

Where do you think He is? He is on earth right now; He is in the waters, and He is everywhere and that is why every thing is subject to Him. All that you have got to do is to go and proclaim to the world that the former covenant is passed away and that the new covenant is now reigning as it was stated, “After those days, saith the Lord, and they shall not teach every man his brother, saying, know the Lord; for all shall know me from the least to the greatest.” Do you doubt this statement? So it was said that as the lightening flashes from the East to the West, so shall the coming of the Lord be. The Scriptures asked, “Where shall this be”? It was replied that where the carcass is there will the vultures abound. Did He not assure you that He was going to prepare a place for you, so that where He is there you shall be also? Now He has come back on earth and He has collected all His children and has united them to Himself. If someone tells you that you should go and see Christ outside, do not go, for the scriptures warned, “They will say lo He is here, lo He is there, do not listen to them.”

Do you not know that Christ is in you? He is within and without, He is everywhere. Mark you, Christ is no politician to go campaigning or the sort of a Chief to struggle for His recognition; He is the King of kings whom the universe must acknowledge. He does not plead for your recognition. It is your duty and mine to seek and accept Him as the only source of our salvation because life, truth, peace and all other virtues are embodied in Him; the Father is in Him and He is in the Father also. His judgement is just and righteous; void of human dictates, yet He is a merciful God for though He knows that you spend time in going to farm to collect food but have spent no time for Him, He imputes no sin on you.

FIRST LESSON: HEBREWS 1: 6

“And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.”

You may wonder what manner of man is this that all the angels must bow unto, but John in his vision saw an angel who was to bow to him, and he forbade the angel being that both of them were servants. Now, you have seen He whom all angels bow to; do you not believe that if He were an angel or man all angels would not have bowed to Him? For example, has any angel ever bowed down to a human being or a fellow angel? This is a prove that whatever is from heaven is very great on earth. His glory is being revealed very gradually and quietly, as He did not come to make noise. Note that nobody sent Him down to the earth plane, He seeks no service from anyone but as it was written, “All must serve Him.” Even if it is one angel alone it can represent the universe.

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the symbol that Enoch saw ascending into heaven in the company of the host of angels. Christ’s supremacy cannot be compared with any other.

HIS INDISPUTABLE SUPREMACY

While He stood trial before king Herod, He stated that if He wanted to fight, He could have asked the Father to send down legion of angels to defend Him. He is a King of no mean order. It was written that His last enemy to be destroyed is death. You are witnesses that every being is afraid of death, yet the scriptures tell us that Christ shall destroy it.

Our Lord Jesus Christ has come down to judge both angels and human beings though He exercises long patience. He has come to save the world as well as you and I. If He had not come in a human form, died on the cross and ascended into heaven, there could have been no salvation for mankind. It is unthinkable to say that until Christ comes back; where did He go, and where had He been? He stated, “My Father works and I work.” You may say that afterall Mary delivered Him; is that the time He came into the world? If truly, He was delivered, then who was in heaven? Christ was the one. This is why He said, “If I tell you things earthly and you do not understand, how would you believe me if I tell you heavenly things?” He also said, “The wind bloweth where it listeth and no one knows from whence it cometh nor where it goeth, so is everyone born of the spirit”. Our Lord Jesus Christ said that no one could come from heaven except the heavenly. While you are imagining that He is here, or that He is in heaven, what do you understand by these expressions that are confusing?

What is meant by heaven is likened to the twinkling of one’s eyes by, which one sees no light just for that time but afterwards light is seen again. The word “heaven” is a spiritual language. When Our Lord Jesus Christ declared that there were some standing there who would never taste of death until this glory of God is revealed, many people took it for a joke. After the transfiguration of Christ on the mountain, Christ communed with Moses and Elijah after, which a voice from heaven declared Him as the beloved Son in whom He was well pleased and asked all to hear Him. What was beheld at that time was a great light seen everywhere. Peter said to Christ, after the disappearance of those elects, “Master let us build three tents, one for Moses, one for Elijah and one for the Lord”.

Such was the thought of man though what was seen was the manifestation of God’s glory. You have been seeing the glory of God manifested. If you doubt, tell me if it is so simple a thing for your dead father to come to you in a dream and discuss possible solutions to your problems or is it a simple thing that your departmental head comes to give you words of comfort when you are in trouble?

HE IS OUR SHIELD IN ADVERSITIES

It has been a common practice that when you are in trouble you call on your dead father or mother to solve it but in vain. Now is for you to call on Our Lord Jesus Christ at any time, anywhere and at any circumstance because He is ready to come to your aid. Those of you calling Him have seen and can testify that nothing has stood against your way? Whatever the magnitude of the assailant, once you make mention of the name of Christ, every power is quelled. Therefore, brethren, since Our Lord Jesus Christ lives, He is everywhere and He is most powerful, it is proper for us to accept, love, worship and honour Him. He comes as a thief in the night as He said before. If a man hears that there is a thief in his farm and he goes with a noisy gang, will he succeed in arresting the thief? This is why He comes like a thief when nobody will ever expect Him because everyone goes about their ways doing their normal duties. This attitude continues until all things are accomplished. Hold fast whatever you grasp, do not mind what people may say, do not mind who criticises or who praises.

If Christ reveals the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit to you, keep it to yourself. Do not allow flesh to overcome you because immediately you are away from Him, doom befalls you. There is a great quest for Our Lord Jesus Christ in the western and African countries; some are searching with doubt and annoyance while others do this steadfastly; but all to no avail. Yet Our Lord Jesus Christ is here carrying out His work. You ought to recognise Him.

SECOND LESSON: HEBREWS 2: 8

“Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.”

Have you all understood that? His promise was to come and transform us from the sinful nature to righteousness. His assignment was not to come and talk unceasingly. Our Lord Jesus Christ is power itself. This time is not the same with His previous coming. He grants you the Holy Spirit, which endows you with power to execute marvellous works. Hence He said, “All power in heaven and on earth have been given unto me”.

WHY POWERS RECEDE

The scripture tells us that when He ascended into heaven He sent the Comforter to His disciples; with various gifts of prophecy, healing and raising the dead; some received the gift of the power to control and others received the power of reasoning. Is it not wonderful that these are embodiments of one person? Since He owned them and distributed same, He has come to collect back all these power to Himself. This is why there are complaints everywhere that there is no more power in any thing except in Him, thus proving that man is a package of vanity. When you call to mind the incidence that took place during the last Nigerian civil war, how the authorities first of all snatched away every war implement without questioning.

That is exactly what Our Lord Jesus Christ has done. Furthermore when these weapons were collected from the people they were used in waging war with their previous owners. If that could be done by man, what do you think can be done by the Omniscient and the Omnipotent. He did this to render you bare so that you may continue to plead with Him for them. This is also the reason why all secret societies have failed, churches fall apart while native and medical doctors as well as all fetish priests become despondent.

If any person tells you that elementary spirits exist, that person is a liar. Now, you are told that there is no other temple other than that of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Father. The temple of God according to the scriptures requires no light for the Lamp that siteth on the throne is the light. I know that you are yet to know these things.

CHRIST ALLOCATES KNOWLEDGES PER SE

You will realise that all manners of knowledge is sent to each of you at your different destinations here in the new Kingdom of God. This is why many of you know how to construct buildings, you are able to design; these go not without understanding. Now services are rendered by the angels. Brethren, had you known where you are, and the person caring for you, you would bow in reverence for Him. Gone are the days Christ went about in canoes or walked about from place to place praying for people; it was so because nothing was accomplished. It is just as one cannot compare the war implement of the year 1914 with those manufactured and used in the year 1939, nor could the war implements used from 1914 to 1939 be compared with the present weapons. At one time you hear of atomic bomb and at another you hear of nuclear weapons, the most deadly war implement. We are thankful to the Father because each possessor of such weapon is hereby constrained to sign treaties of peace. This results in no more world wars. Their wicked designs have taught them to sell off those war implements to the hopeless African countries that use them on each other. I illustrate the heavenly things with the earthly so that you know that if the earth plane improves in principles the heavens would outclass in the improvement. Christ can never adopt the first method in anything that He is doing; He uses modern system to be consonant with today’s system. In the past when He invited people to Himself many gave excuses like “going to bury my father”, ” being in a honey moon”, etc;

Now He varies His method of extending His call just to meet up with the time. I have been telling you that the atmosphere is not what you have to take it lightly. You have to desist from improper bickering, just watch out, for He is doing His work according to His divine plan. This is why I have been telling you that you have not understood these things properly. Simply take it easy and make no fuss about things because until He has finished doing one thing or the other, you will not know when and how He did it, nor would you know that He is at work.

PILOT OF AFFAIRS IN THE UNIVERSE

Now let us take a look at what is raging in the Government and throughout the world. No one has ever asked the people to report nor has anybody told those with atomic energy not to fight neither has any person been delegated to warn the warring parties because Our Lord Jesus Christ is doing His work slowly but steadily. Should you feel reluctant to go to a certain place, you will find out that when you finally decide to go that Christ and His angels had been there already, on full operation. Now that you find Brotherhood of the Cross and Star everywhere, who is responsible for establishing them than Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Presently, centres of the worldly powers like India, America and Europe refers all those who seek spiritual aids from them to the fold of Brotherhood of the Cross, 34, Ambo Street, Calabar Cross Rivers State of Nigeria in West Africa. You may decide to travel down here out of curiosity, just to see the place from where power is said to emanate, but I assure you that the more you look the less you see. Are you not afraid of the marvellous work of Christ? Personally, I am much afraid. Be careful that you do not boast of this power. Sometimes when a sick person is brought to you, owing to unbelief in the fact that Christ does everything, you order that the sick person should be carried away. When the sick requested only prayers before the people carry him away, you offered and behold the sick was relieved and became healed.

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREWS 7: 25.

“Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.”

Have you heard what is read out to you? There is no other power and there is no other person to whom such authority is vested than Our Lord Jesus Christ. This is the reason every prayer or speech in Brotherhood is preceded with “In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Now that we all have turned to Him we have to seek salvation from Him for He liveth forever; there is no other source of salvation. Whenever you are encountered with fear and trouble, seek Our Lord Jesus Christ, and discard the invitations of the native doctor, the fetish and the juju priests because they are devoid of salvation and power. All our prayers are treated before Him; the prayers of those who know, accept, worship and agree with Him are promptly attended to and the resultant assistance is given. Do not beg anybody to come and receive blessing from the Brotherhood of Cross and Star. Anyone who likes to steal let him steal. He who likes to commit any sin allow him for ” I will come quickly,” saith the Lord.

Do not forget that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are here on earth. The only thing is for you to confess your sins and repent of them. When you shall have done this, He is ready to save you. As many as love Him and accept Him He authorise them to become the children of God. If you are tricky and disobedient, you are far from salvation. He said, “I will come quickly”.

Supposing that while living in somebody’s house, you create trouble and fight yet the owner of the house keeps silent; you ought to be afraid. Why the Lord is patient and silent is to make Him execute a righteous judgement. This is Christ’s week and whatever you can do, do it to prove that you have acknowledge His Kingship, and have seen Him. You are to demonstrate your joy in any way possible. Show through your deeds that you have received His manifold blessings. Do not ponder in your heart why others are not here but hold fast to your faith because many are called but few are chosen. Do not joke with the opportunity and privilege that God has bestowed on you now. Love, fear, obey, honour and worship Christ because He knows everything about you.

I will not be tedious with you. He who has ears let him hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

Thank You Good Father.

THE GREATEST POSSESSION

FIRST LESSON: LUKE 12:29-31
And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.

SECOND LESSON: MATTEW 5:4
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

GOLDEN TEXT: ROMANS 8: 17
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.

SHUN WORLDLY PLEASURES
How many people among the inhabitants of the world have recognised Brotherhood of the Cross and Star as the Kingdom of God on earth? People only come to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star for the purpose of acquiring children, money, life, clothing and houses. All these people seek to be made Presidents, Governors, Chairmen; also to be exalted, recognised, praised, loved and highly regarded by others. Considering all these, can one say they are seeking the Kingdom of God?
As a Christ’s practical student, everything is naked before you; it is either you accept or refute it. Whoever knows the truth has no problem and does not regret. Those who are Christ Practical Students know what they are passing through. They do everything with caution, knowing fully well where they are heading. Hence, they are not bothered, even when people cheat on them and perpetrated whatever atrocities against them. The three texts quoted above, constitute their food.
Our Lord Jesus Christ implored His Father to glorify Him since He had accomplished all that He (Father) asked Him, to do. The people who come to the
Kingdom to urge me Father to bless and elevate them to highly esteemed positions, are such people that seek to enter the Kingdom through the window. God knows our positions; and indeed, everything about us. Therefore, it is very unwise for anybody to implore God to bless and exalt him or complain of one problem or the other. This is not a practice of a Christ Practical Student.

The Israelites stayed in the land of Egypt for four hundred and thirty years.
While there, they farmed, traded, married and raised up children; and when it was the fullness of time, they departed from Egypt. I want you to ponder over this issue; why did the children of Israel depart from the land of Egypt? Having stayed in Egypt for such a long time, the place was literally considered their home. Although the Israelites greatly prospered, and had dwelled there for such a long period of time, yet they decided to leave Egypt their homeland. Obviously, the decision was not an easy one to implement by the Israelites. Why then did they have to leave Egypt? This is applicable to the Christ Practical Students’ fold. It gives an insight into the scriptural nomination that, whoever does not forsake all that he has; and follow after Christ is not worthy to be His disciple.

Many people are in the habit of cautioning and blaming whoever forsakes all that he had for the sake of God. The question is, do people consider such a person to be ignorant of his action? These detractors actually know that he is seeking the greatest things, which is the Kingdom of God. The Israelites would not have inherited the Promised Land, if they had lusted after their enormous possessions left behind in the land of Egypt. And since they had hopes for what was greater than their belongings in Egypt; which was according to the promise of their forefather; they exercised patience despite the intimidation and suffering encountered on the way. At this moment, the entire world is in the land of Egypt; and it is imperative for us to depart to the land that is kept for us. So, we should be prepared to pass through afflictions in order to inherit the land. You are enjoined to be mindless and undisturbed, no matter the treatment meted to you; and abusive language used on you; but should forge ahead and expect what is great. As earlier said, the entire world is in the land of Egypt; and it is now for us to seek the land, which belongs to us.
Let the first lesson be read.

FIRST LESSON: LUKE 12:29-31
And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.

ENDURE ALL SITUATION
Beloved, you are enjoined not to be bothered about what to eat, drink, wear and should also not be doubtful for these are the desires of the people of the world. What we are required to do is to succumb to any hard situation, mockery and defamation, because of Christ among others. We should not be bothered ever if it means denying ourselves every pleasure; but should forge-ahead knowing that the future holds greater things than what was in the past. You have to do away with all material things and without relenting seek the acquisition of the Kingdom of God.
Is God ignorant of your state; why then do you lament and complain of one thing or the other? This is the Kingdom, which Christ taught his disciples to pray for. See Matthew 6:10. The Kingdom has manifested; and you have to seek it. Your race to become a President would not bring salvation to you; and cannot grant you entrance into the Kingdom of God. God knows all your needs; He knows you need eternal life, power and glory however, the first requirement is seeking the Kingdom; according to His instruction in the scriptures.
The desire to seek the Kingdom of God cannot be derived through long preaching. Those who seek mundane things have perished but those who have forsaken such material possessions have gained the Kingdom of God. Let our Second lesson be re-examined.

SECOND LESSON: MATTEW 5:4
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

SPIRITUAL CHORUS
CRY AND LAMENT NO MORE
FOR THE SAVIOUR IS NOT ON HIS WAY
BUT RIGHT IN OUR MIDST

Beloved, the above lesson does not make any meaning to the people of the world for they are still plunged in darkness since they are children of perdition. However, it makes a lot of meaning to the children of God. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the Kingdom of God. Thus, only those who are spiritually enlightened really know what is going on in the Kingdom but the people of the world are blind to the situations herein.
Remember the dialogue between our Lord Jesus Christ and his disciples, see Matthew 13:10-11. All that you left behind in order to acquire the Kingdom would be given to you a hundred fold. What does Christ Practical Students stand for? Most people have been pondering over the meaning in vain. Collectively, these titles: Christ Practical Student, Christ Witness, Christ Student, Christ Servant and the Children of God denote the off-springs of the Almighty God.
They constitute those who aspire to inherit the Kingdom of God. A local adage maintains that, the fowl considers the things ahead greater than those of the past. For reference see Matthew 9:16-17.

No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse. Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
Lot with his family was warned against carrying any possession and turning back their faces when departing the corrupt city of Sodom and Gomorrah. But Lot’s wife whose mind was in her belongings could not control her lust, and so violated the warning by looking back. And consequently, perished. History is repeating itself in the Kingdom. To drive home this point, there was a certain brother, an Archbishop of a church, from Kenya, who forsook his entire wealth and position; and came to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. And while here, he was addressed as ‘brother’. When people questioned why he has chosen this path, he replied that he was no longer interested in the things of the world. There are other such people in the Kingdom.
Most of the people think that, people come to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star to gain starvation. Do you remember the encounter between our Lord Jesus Christ and a certain young lawyer? See Luke 18:18-22. The young man was sad when our Lord Jesus Christ asked him to come and follow Him; after having sold a1l that he had and equally distributed to the poor.

SPIRITUAL CHORUS
SELL ALL YOUR POSSESSION
AND FOLLOW THE LORD

Your numerous years spent in the Kingdom would be in vain if you do not completely forsake the world. It would be of no help to you, even if you claim absolute knowledge of Olumba and render songs of praise to God, in as much as you still cling to desires of the world. It is completely necessary that you forsake every bit of worldly things. A lot of people do wonder why a person is asked to forsake the little he has instead of further acquiring more wealth, vehicles and raising a clan of children.
Let us re-examine our Golden text:

GOLDEN TEXT: ROMANS 8: 17
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.
You being a Christ Practical Student are joint-heirs with Christ, you should suffer with Him; for you would be glorified alongside Him; but you can go your own way if you are reluctant. The coming of the Ethiopian in this very year serves as a very good example to the Christ Practical Students. He rejected the one thousand, five hundred Naira (N1,500.00) that was given to him. Again, when he was given two plates of rice during feasting, he merely looked at it, smiled and then told the sharers that it would not be enough for the other brethren if he alone should eat two plates. But in your case, one person would want to eat up to five plates of rice so as to be fully satisfied.
You are expected to live up to expectation as Christ Practical Students; emulate the Ethiopian. It is most certain that, if we suffer with Christ we would also be glorified with Him.
Beloved a stroke of cane is enough for the wise· Let he who has an ear let him hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the whole world. May God bless His Holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU GOOD FATHER.

“THE LIVING TRUTH”

FIRST LESSON: ST. MATTHEW 23: 11

“But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant”.

SECOND LESSON: ST. MATTEW 20: 28
“Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto but to minister, and give his life as a ransom for many”.

GOLDEN TEXT: 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”.

All the gospels preached to you are references and reminders about the words spoken by our Lord Jesus Christ. None can add nor subtract anything to help in the fulfillment of these gospels. Any person therefore, who would not put the gospel into practice stands to lose his chance in this Kingdom. Everyone is hereby advised to be careful of his or her activities and manners.
Many people today claim that if they were Adam and Eve; they would not have succumbed to the tempter’s ploy. Others also claim that if they were Lot or the rest of the fallen patriarchs, they would not have fallen into the temptation they experienced. The general belief amongst many Christians now is that, their faith in Christ is so strong that if they had existed during the era of our Lord Jesus Christ, they would not have persecuted Him nor denied Him. This testimony reveals the downfall of the inhabitants of the church denominations and the various religious bodies. Furthermore, the testimony proves the fact that:
“…Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (St. Matthew 5: 18).
The first lesson has made it clear that:
“…The greatest among you shall be your servant”.

That is a statement or injunction which nothing can prevent its fulfillment, not even prayer and fasting. Our Lord Jesus Christ made this statement and not Me. Christ Himself practiced the injunction before He gave the charge. Therefore, calling on the name of the Lord alone will not save you except you comply with His injunctions. The reason why the entire world has failed is because; no one has endeavored to put into practice the injunctions of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Visions and dreams would not help you, neither would anyone obtain salvation by mere distributing his money to people. Also, preaching, reciting the passages of the Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation and shouting the name of Jesus at the top of your voice cannot help at all.
The question now is if the greatest has to be a servant, what then will people of low status be? Can you now realize why the Lord said that:

“…Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist; notwithstanding, he that is the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he”? (St. Matthew 11:11)

The only way to greatness is to submit yourself to the service of others. In other words, you must be a servant to all. Whether you are a lawyer, an engineer, a banker or a manager of chains of firms, you cannot benefit anything nor get a solution to your quest for salvation. Individual status or stature does not count in practicing the gospel. Neither your race nor colour of the skin can help you to practice the gospel except you abide in the Lord.
No person is capable of preaching the gospel or indeed doing anything except the Lord abides in him. Christ is the only one who practices the gospel and whom we have to hear from. He is the only Leader and Savior. Therefore, whoever fails to practice His injunctions does not believe in Him and cannot accomplish the signs spoken of by our Lord Jesus Christ. Can you now realize why the governments, churches, individuals have failed? The entire world has flouted the Lord’s injunction that the greatest should be the servant. God has not provided any special seat to anybody who claims to be the greatest except he who is a servant to others. If for example you visit a certain city and find their king sweeping but you go straight to his reception room and occupy his chair, have you not made a fool of yourself? If you say you want to please God and do the right, you have to humble yourself by serving others. That was what is pleasing to the Father. God abhors pomposity. For instance, it is very distasteful in the sight of God for a person to sit down at one corner and others standing by him to fan him as a mark of glory. He does not also like situation in which a person positions himself only to issue out orders to others to carry out.
Many people complain that power no longer exists and that, there is no Holy Spirit in existence. They go to make various complains and erroneous claims that God does not exist. They are in this pitiable position because; they have all flouted God’s injunctions. The only right path to life is to practice the gospel. It is the manifestation of Christ’s statement that:

“…. No man cometh unto the Father, but by me (St. John 14: 6).

It is also true that, to gain an entrance into this Kingdom is not through one’s wealth, academic achievement or power.
The term faith is clearly demonstrated by practicing the gospel. Can you now realize why our Lord Jesus Christ is the greatest both in heaven and here on earth? In the entire world, who else has the Almighty God accorded recognition as the only King and Lord? He is the only recognized person before God and He is well pleased. It is against this background that the four- (4) wise men went to worship Him with gifts. In heaven, the Lord is the King of the angels. Here on earth, He is the Lord and Savior. You could recall when the wise men arrived at His birthplace they inquired:

“…Where is he that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. (St. Matthew 2: 2)
Our Lord Jesus Christ despite His status was not arrogant but He is the life and only model for all to follow. He preached from one part of the world to the other. He preached to the rulers of the earth both in their palaces and in the synagogues. He preached to all and sundry so that mankind would learn of Him and endeavor to resemble Him. We all are living witnesses that, of all born of a woman there have risen none as humble as Christ. Amongst all created by God, including man and the angels, none has ever been declared God’s beloved other than Christ. He is the only one upon whom God declared as recorded hereunder:
“And lo a voice from heaven, saying, this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased. (St. Matthew 3: 17)
He is the only person who has the right of son-ship. This further explains why He alone prayed the Father saying:

“…. O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was”. (St. John 17: 5)

In another instance, He told the Jews:
“Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day, and he saw it, and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. (St. John 8: 56-58).
For those who continued to doubt Him, He asked them why even David himself called Him Lord and King. He is the greatest amongst God’s creation and none can be compared to Him. As the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, He served mankind and humbled Himself even to the point of death. In spite of His good works, His humility and love, the world saw nothing good in Him. In spite of the various persecutions He went through, He continued to serve all and to pray for His Father to forgive them for they knew not what they did. He said:

“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. (St. Matthew 11: 29)
Take particular note of the above passage because that is what He wants us all to do. This is why He warned us not to call anyone teacher for there is only one that is teacher who is the Father and that we all are brethren. He alone is the teacher of this new age and the New Kingdom. Therefore, whatever position you may occupy, whatever name you may answer and whatever profession you may engage in, you should regard this gospel as your guide. Whether you are a president, a traditional ruler, a technocrat, a scientist or whatever, that cannot provide you automatic entry into the Kingdom of God. There were prominent men in the world before and during the advent of our Lord Jesus Christ but God did not consider any of them worthy to be called ‘a beloved son’.
If any person tells you that God is relaxed in His big chair in His throne while His servants or angels continue to fan Him, ask such a person to pray fervently for Himself. God works round the clock for the good of man. Put in a different way, that which God created, has now become a problem to his creator. A local adage has it that, an antelope gave birth to its young one in order to avoid morning dew, but alas, the irony of it is that another antelope desperately runs through the wet leaves every morning in search of food for its young one. The lesson to learn here is that most of the requests you make are invitations of problems to yourself. For example, a man who prays God to give him a wife is asking for extended problems. Extended in the sense that apart from his problems, he would become the sole bearer of problems for his wife, children and the wife’s immediate relations. The problems that we have are brought about by us.

ILLUSTRATION
Once there lived a certain woman who had a stubborn and troublesome child. On many occasions when the child went out and caused one form of trouble or the other, even if he stole, the mother would use her money to close up the case. The boy continued in his violent behavior causing one trouble after the other until one day the boy finally killed somebody and was charge to court. There, he was sentenced for murder to be hanged.
When the sentence was read, in spite of the effort of his mother to use money to save him as usual, he was sentenced to death. Then when he realized that his mother could not save him any longer, he indicated his intention to confide in his mother before being led away for execution. This request was granted and his mother walked close to him. The boy pretended as if he wanted to have a word with his mother and in that process held the mother’s head close to his mouth and bit off one of her ears. Before the security agents in the court could rush in, he had already accomplished his will. When asked why he did that, the boy said that, he was giving his mother a share of the misdemeanors for letting him loose during his infancy, the mother was for that reason sentenced for culpable negligence.
It is said that, you should not seek to be teachers for their judgement is so great. For example, if a vehicle with full passengers is driven out by an ill-trained driver and eventually, gets involved in a ghastly accident, who will be held responsible for the loss of souls? The first thing a man has to do therefore is to know his creator and serve Him. What he does instead is to request for a wife, money, children and other things that are transitory. These things form the basis of your downfall and destruction. By so doing, you have invited more problems to yourself than you can bear. That is why we are told to submit to those who lead us and obey them. Your teacher is the one who will give account before God. And for that reason you should not give him cause to do the work with grief. There are problems in the world today because of the absence of good stewardship. The preachers behave differently from what they preach. They tell you to do what they say and not what they do. This explains why Christ told the multitude that:

“Saying, The Scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do, but do not ye after their work: for they say, and do not. (St. Matthew 23: 2-3)

He therefore, referred to them (Pharisees and Scribes) as the blind leaders of the blind. See below:
“Let them alone; they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch”. (St. Matthew 15: 14). Christ prayed saying:
“And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world. And I come to thee Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou has given me, that they may be one, as we are, 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: 11-12)
Today, people are clamoring to amass wealth, to occupy important political and economic positions. But no one is interested to serve God. The proliferation of churches is an indication of man’s rebellious tendencies and quest for materialism. Charity, it is said, begins at home. No person who is himself unorganized can get others organized. In the whole wide world, who has endeavored to resemble our Lord Jesus Christ? He never went to the hospital for treatment or consults any native doctor throughout His life. He did not indulge in any act of sinfulness.

This explains why He was so powerful. When a multitude of people went to capture Him, He only spoke the word by saying ‘I am He’, and they all fell to the ground. Does that not explain to you that God is power? If He were not so powerful, what would have caused Pharaoh to allow the children of Israel to go? What would have caused Nebuchadnezzer to live in the forest for seven (7) years? Herod blasphemed against God greatly and if He were not powerful, Herod would have gone away with that insult. He would not have been God any longer. To say the least, if He had not proved himself to be Supreme and Almighty, none would have worshipped Him. If He was not God and most powerful, all men would have drawn battle lines with Him and would have conquered Him by now.
If Christ were to crash-land with fanfare as the world expects, where would He land and would His enemies fold their hands and watch Him safely land? Did Christ Himself not tell the story of a certain man who gave out his field to husbandmen to watch for him? He made it clear in the story that when the man saw the heirs of the farm; they descended on him and killed him so that they would take over the ownership of the farm. Then a question was asked: What would happen to such husbandmen when the owner comes? The answer was given that; the owner of the farm would destroy such husbandmen. This explains why Christ said:
“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”. (St. John 15: 5)
Even when He healed that blind young man, the people discountenanced the feat believing that He did it through the power of evil, and most importantly was that He did it on a Sabbath. However, in His reply He said:

“..My Father worketh hitherto, and I work”. (St. John 5: 17)
For those who believe that God works only for six (6) days and takes His rest on the seventh (7) day, have they imagined what would happen everywhere if God should rest for even a second?

What all should note is that, no matter the space of time, God would not fail to destroy the evil ones from the surface of the earth. The inhabitants of the world are not ready to listen to and practice the word of God. The same happens in government and other establishments. People only go there to work for the purpose of making money, to destroy them and not to build. The protocols observed in both governmental and business circles are part and parcel of the security system, particularly in matters relating to having audience with either the Head of Sate of Head or Departments. You must pass through certain formalities before being allowed to meet the President of a country or even other high-ranking government officials. This is for the sake of protecting them.
If man could be so mindful of his fellow man, how much more God? If God were to expose Himself to man without His overwhelming spiritual power, man would have engaged Him in physical combat to destroy Him. For instance, Jacob who had a slight opportunity to meet face to face with the angel of God had to wrestle with Him. He decided to go to any length with the angel until he got blessed. If more persons got a similar opportunity as Jacob did, what do you think would have happened to that Being in the form of an angel?

The problems in the world today are traceable to man’s extravagant habits. When you spend more than your income, you are bound to go bankrupt. A man with no visible source of livelihood would not mind marrying two to ten wives which invariably leads to giving birth to as many children as he and his wives can breed. Tell Me if such a person can ever have happiness and peace of mind? The whole nations of the world, organizations and individuals are bankrupt because they live beyond their means. The salvation lies only in a change of heart. Read the first lesson once more:

FIRST LESSON: ST. MATTHEW 23: 11
“But he that is greatest among you shall be your servants”.
The above passage is the entry visa into this Kingdom. There is no need for you to struggle for food, money, wife, children or anything that is mundane for, there is no profit in those things. The only thing you have to struggle for is this Kingdom. If you desire to be great, you have to serve others. Do not seek to punish or cheat others but endeavor at all times to serve them and better their lot.
No person is capable of doing anything except he practices the word of God and is filled with the Holy Spirit. Many governors, presidents, and very rich men get sick and even die while their exalted positions and their wealth; cannot rescue them. But the one that practices the gospel and abides in the Lord, no matter how lowly placed, is powerful and resolute. Such is the same person who is capable of praying for any sick person to be healed. Of these two classes of persons, who is greater? Many church leaders and leaders in other religious organizations are provided with security agents to protect them.
The only way of salvation is through words of our Lord Jesus Christ. All the inhabitants of the world have alienated themselves from God, and have instead chosen carnal things as their savior. All powers in heaven and on earth belong to Christ. Neither man nor any other thing created by God has power. Instead of all the inhabitants of the world to believe in God and abhor unrighteousness, they resort to idolatry, fornication and disobedience to their Creator. There is no power anywhere except God. Man appears to be helpless and to be overcome by problems that beset him because he has refused to accept God and to serve Him.
There is great reward in heaven for all His obedient children. When a certain sick man was taken to the Disciples of Christ, they prayed for him but could not be healed. When the report got to the Lord He asked that the sick person be brought to Him. The person was brought to Him and He got him healed. The disciples, out of surprise, wanted to know from their Master why they could not heal the sick person. His reply to them was that:

“…Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, if ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to yonder place, and it shall move; and nothing shall be impossible unto you”. (St. Matthew 17: 20)
Faith is not acquired by words of mouth or show of power but by practicing the gospel. This explains the reason behind the weakness of the various church denominations today. Our Lord Jesus Christ burnt no candles or incenses; He did not beat drums, nor go to the mountaintop with the sick to pray for them. He spoke only the word accompanied with a dramatic effect.

The entire world is empty; it is only the Holy Spirit that reigns supreme. If you desire to be endowed with the power of God, you have to practice the gospel. The word of God is peace, love, prosperity and all the good things. If we accept to serve God, He will not fail to give us our due rewards. He would always answer to your prayers promptly whenever He is called upon. It is said:
“Whosoever 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”. Let reference be made to the second lesson:

SECOND LESSON: ST. MATTHEW 20: 28
“Even as the son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many”.
There is no particular person who has not benefited from Christ, in one way or the other in his life. Christ does not impute sin on any. It is one thing to claim to be a man of God or a wealthy man; but another thing is to fulfill the responsibilities of that position. Christ did not bestow people with mundane things, He did not pray to people to be rich, but offered Himself to serve all. If He had not surrendered His life as a ransom, where would man derive his salvation? He was called all sorts of derogatory names, despised at and persecuted yet, He continued to love all. He came to serve but not to judge. Therefore, if we comply with His injunctions we shall be completely free from problems.
The political entity (the Soviet Union) once regarded as the most powerful nation in the world was brought to its disintegration because of its abhorrence to the teachings of Christ. The government indoctrinated its people to believe that the idea about the existence of God was a mere illusion, apparition and an act of idleness meant for desperate people. But the question is where is it now in the map of the world today?
Other countries continue to claim to be world powers yet they are hit hard by various natural disasters. Why is it that, their power, wisdom and wealth cannot save them? In spite of their many scientific inventions and discoveries recorded yet, they continue to be visited with vicissitudes. The so-called advanced nations waste their resources in exploring other planets; certain individuals who claim to be spiritually developed embark on excessive astral projection, yet they end up on earth? Even those of us here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, if we were to realize that God is in our midst, we would not indulge in the evil that we do.
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star has no problem because it adheres to the teachings of Christ to the letter. We abide by the injunctions of our Lord Jesus Christ and imbibe His lifestyle. This is golden opportunity for all to practice the injunctions of our Lord Jesus Christ. If the children of Israel had hearkened to the injunctions of the Lord the destruction they witnessed would have been averted. Christ came to the world, preached, and practiced the gospel for the world to be in peace. But immediately His ascension into heaven, men went for His disciples to torture them. He bore eloquent witness about the Holy Spirit when He said:

“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”. (St. John 14: 26)

He made this promise realizing that no man was ready to serve God. By being nailed to the cross, it was the flesh and its lusts that were nailed. The Holy Spirit has come to rule and reign eternally. There is no place for materialism in His Kingdom. He has come as the light otherwise the world would be damned. But for the power of the Holy Spirit, the world would have by now witnessed the third (3rd) world war. This is not the time for anybody to condemn the other or build cathedrals but to practice the gospel. When the people saw our Lord Jesus Christ, they exclaimed:

“…Rabbi, when camest thou hither? (St. John 6: 25) In His reaction, Christ said:
“….Verily, Verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you; for him hath God the Father sealed”. (St. John 6: 26-27)
Which is the food that shall endure forever? It is the word of God, which incidentally man has rejected. All the conventional institutions of learning and other societies cannot give man the much-needed salvation. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is able to conquer the world; it does not desire recognition from anybody, it does not need power or anything that is mundane. It has come to save the world. This is the fulfillment of that promise that:

“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth, for he shall not speak of himself; but what- soever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show you things to come”. (St. John 16: 13)
The people of old disobeyed God and got perished. If you continue in that disobedience you shall also perish. Our Lord Jesus Christ did not come to seek for a wife or child, neither was He interested in anything mundane. The case with us is different; we go to God with diverse problems and requests for Him to solve them.
When the Israelites demanded to know from Christ what He came to do for them, that Moses used to pray and manna would fall from heaven for them to eat, He replied them that it was not Moses who provided the bread but His Father. He went further to remind them:
“…Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven, but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven for the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world”. (St. John 6: 32-33).
For those who claim to seek after the Lord Jesus, in what way do they seek after Him? The only way to seek after the Lord is to practice His injunctions. Whoever seeks to see the Father should practice the gospel. Whoever shall practice this gospel will do greater works than Christ did. Reference should now be made to our golden text:

GOLDEN TEXT: 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 will he do; because I go unto my Father”.
Tell the whole world, the various religious sects and all secret societies that they should practice this gospel. That, the solution to their sorrow lies in practicing this gospel. Do not worry yourself over anything but endeavor to practice the gospel. God does not lax in His promise and He honors every statement that proceeds from His mouth. Do not pray God to heal you or to provide you anything mundane. Just put this gospel into practice and see whether you will not have the power and glory of God fulfilled in you. This gospel is given to you to enhance your prosperity and as a solution to all your problems. The scripture says:
“For the kingdom of God is not in words, but in power”. (1st Corinthians 4: 20).
The so-called wise saying that, man surpasses man, but position surpasses power For example, God has the power and the world has positions. Except all the people in the corridors of governmental power and those occupying other sensitive seats come to the Father and obtain real power, they will not succeed. It is written:
“Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain”. (Psalms 127: 1)
Whatever you wish to do, you have to obtain clearance from the Father. Whoever fulfills this gospel and with the promise of Christ fulfilled in Him can never again grope in darkness in search of salvation. The children of Brotherhood have Christ, the Father and the heavenly hosts because the gospel is practiced diligently. The feast you eat, the Holy Oil and Biakpan Water can never lead you to salvation. It is merely profitable to receive the gospel and practice it than to look for ephemeral things. If you allow the word of God to abide in your head you will surely have eternal life and all the good things you need. There is no elementary spirit in the whole world that can challenge a child of Brotherhood.
Should the people of the world ask you about what the Father has given to you as a source of spiritual power tell them that it is the word of God. That we should love one another by giving water to those who are thirsty and food for the hungry. Solace for those in grief and clothes for the naked. Any person who fails to practice this gospel has no share in Kingdom of God. The stone the builders rejected has finally become the chief cornerstone. This is the word of God. That is exactly what has happened in the world today. Brotherhood has come to rule the world. That is the more reason we have to refrain from sins. Christ came to save men and for any man to enjoy this grace, he has to practice the injunctions of our Lord Jesus Christ.

May God Bless His Holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

“THE MAN YOU SHOULD NOT PUT UP WITH”

Golden Text: 1 Corinthians 5: 13
“Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.”

MY DEAR BRETHREN, Do you know that right within you is the wicked one that has been tormenting you all these years? You cannot see him, yet he is there. This wicked one goes about masked, changing like a chameleon, and is more pestering than any fly or mosquito. The question now is not whether you like to harbour this wicked man, for nobody would. When you recognise him in one form, he changes into another, even more dangerous. In this gospel, this wicked man is going to be revealed. The safety and happiness of the whole world lies in her ability to recognise and get rid of this wicked man.
Now examine yourself and see whether you have the spirit of drunkenness, pride, stubbornness, annoyance, fornication, greed and lust after worldly things. If you retain any of these, you have willfully harboured the wicked man to your own ruin. You are putting up with a Judas, and if you must not be doomed, you must remove him.

ARE YOU UNHAPPY? SEARCH YOURSELF
If you are unhappy, search yourself, and you will see that one of the above named bad spirits is behind it all. You may not like to offend your brother, but the wicked man in you forces you to. Our duty on earth is to remove this wicked man anywhere and in any form he exists.

HE APPEARS IN MANY FORMS
Recognise him just now. He is the wicked man who gives you bad advice, makes you to commit murder; spoils your good name, causes illness and death. He can use any person or thing as an instrument to ruin you. You are advised to remove such a person. Even if she is your mother, father or child, husband or wife, or a spirit that refuses to please God; even an angel that does not obey God. Any thing that is a stumbling block to a brother is that wicked person.

REFUSE ADVICE FROM EVIL SPIRITS
People like to take any advice; once it is given by the Spirit. But I am telling you to refuse any advice from any spirit that is not in accordance with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. There are many evil spirits that go about deceiving people. They say that the Holy Spirit is not in existence. They believe in necromancer and medicines.

ANGER IS EVIL
There are spirits, which tell you that fornication is no sin. These are not the Spirit of God. They should be removed from among you for they are the wicked ones. Do not be contented with removing only some of the evil acts; remove all. Anger is an evil act, it is very abnormally. See how queer some angry people are. Some do not get crossed the moment they are abused, but unexpectedly fall out with anybody who may happen to praise them. Anger misplaces values. It can turn any good thing into evil. It should therefore be removed at all costs. The tongue is dangerous when wrongly used. Some people show kindness, but go about broadcasting how useless and hopeless the person they help is – mockingly talking about that person’s poverty. Some people follow up their kindness with abuses. They use their kindness as a license to treat anybody anyhow. When kindness becomes a license to abuse, it is no more kindness but sin. Let us therefore try our best to remove the wicked man in whatever form we may find him so that we may be in peace with each other. The wicked man is responsible for all bad government and political chaos, and his ultimate removal is the only way to peace as illustrated in the story that follows:

ILLUSTRATION
Three children came from three neighbouring cities to travel in a second class train. They were the sons of kings. During a short introduction, they discovered that they were of the same age, started schooling the same year. They did not tell one another their destination. But they were surprised to find themselves alighting from the train at the same station. They were still more surprised to find that, they were going to the same house belonging to the headmaster who had served in the cities they came from. They knew this was with a purpose, but they could not say anything till it was proved.
After welcoming them into his house, the headmaster asked the first boy: Has your father learned to be patient now? He asked the second boy breathlessly: “Has your father learned to finish any work he started?” And the third: “Has your father done away with stubbornness”? Seeing that these were the true characters of their father, these boys were very much ashamed so much that they went out and wept bitterly. Weeping was useless.
One of them came up with an idea. He called the rest together and suggested that the boy whose father was never patient should go by the name Patience: the one whose father would never accomplish the work he started be named Accomplishment and the one whose father was stubborn go by the name obedience. They all decided to come home and call the meeting of the three cities for the first time in history. With the facts of their experience, they convinced the people. They asked the three old kings to step down for them. This was done.

PEACE AND PROGRESS EVERYWHERE
These cities enjoyed peace and progress under the new young kings. Those who were exiled through the wickedness of the old kings returned to enjoy freedom. Other towns that had seceded in time of bad government returned to enjoy during the new peaceful regime.

ONLY KINDNESS CAN DRIVE AWAY WICKEDNESS
Therefore brethren, let us use good deeds to drive away bad ones. For only by so doing can we drive away the wicked person that is in our midst. Let us resist the desires of the flesh. Let us walk by the Spirit. If you do this, the wicked person is out already, and you are free. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

Thank you Good Father

THE MANIFESTATION OF GOD

FIRST LESS0N: 1ST JOHN 2:10
He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.

SECOND LESSON: IST. JOHN 4:16
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is Love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

GOLDEN TEXT: IST CORINTHIANS 13:11-12
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face; now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

Beloved, the Kingdom is love; and everything in it is love. The Kingdom requires only love. So you are to dwell here in love for God is love. In the Kingdom, everybody has equal opportunity of seeing God; so there is no need asking another person to pray or direct you in whatever you desire to embark on.
In the Kingdom, singing, clapping of hands, praying, etc., is carried out by God with love; we dwell in the house of love. This is not a time for man to seek God; for He is everywhere, since He is Love. In the kingdom, there is no shedding of tears, lamentation, quarrelling, fighting, mourning, lack or famine.
None of these unpleasant experiences apart from love, is found in the Kingdom.
The Kingdom is therefore the salvation point for the entire world. When everybody shall have come here, then would everything be vividly seen and not even the tiniest truth would be hidden. Let our First lesson be read again.

FIRST LESS0N:- 1ST JOHN 2:10
He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.

LOVE IS GREATEST
Beloved, God surely takes whoever works for Him and possesses love to Himself. This is the Kingdom of God, which constitutes love. This is neither a church nor a healing home; but the New Kingdom of God where love alone dwells.
Love is the greatest in the Kingdom. Love cannot be confined to a house, and can not be carried about unless it is possessed by the person; for love is God. For this reason, you are enjoined to exhibit love for one another because wherever Love is found, there would, certainly be no sickness, hatred, fighting, lamentation, war, lack and famine; but everything remains in peace and harmony.
Where Love is found nobody needs to be advised for everything is known by everybody. Everything is done through the directives of love in the Kingdom. Let
our Second lesson be re-visited.

SECOND LESSON:- IST. JOHN 4:16
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is Love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

THE MAGNIFICIENT VIRTUE
The above excerpt explains the necessity for love. Having had the understanding that, God is love; and whoever possesses love dwells in God, and God in him. Everybody should abide in love; for Love has come to lead and direct.
Love does not need vision, gospel and admonitions. Love is the greatest and is the bedrock of every good thing that constitutes God.
God is Love, and Love is God; and God constitutes every good thing. Do not struggle for car, money and other material wealth; for with love, you have the supply of everything. The Kingdom of God does not require any other thing apart from Love. You are enjoined to ardently seek Love; because whoever has Love equally has God; and God dwells permanently with Him.
The scriptures say, God is the same yesterday, today and forever. This is why you would not see another thing besides love. Since your conversion to the Kingdom, you can attest to the fact that I have preached about everything to you and soon I would no longer preach; because I have accomplished everything.
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is no other thing apart from the Kingdom of God. It is not the kingdom of the world, a church, prayer house, healing home; but the Kingdom of God, wherein dwells righteousness.
Most people come here and still persist in lie telling, indulging in diabolism, among other evil practices. Do not be bothered; because only love works in the Kingdom. Love would continue to operate even if nobody expresses it. Love is unchanging. Let our Golden text be re-examined.

GOLDEN TEXT:- IST. CORINTHIANS 13:11-12
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face; now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

LOVE 1S OMNIPOTENT
Beloved, because love controls everything in the Kingdom, nobody should be interested in another person’s affair. The only question you are asked is whether or not you have love; and not whether or not you are saved: the reason being that, it is only Love that is Cardinal and operational in the Kingdom.
We, like the trees, fishes and other creatures of God can know our expectations through love.
No other thing besides Love is entertained in the Kingdom. Your knowledge, foolishness, advice, qualification and other carnal ideas are not needed in the Kingdom. All we need is love; because of this, we are implored to continue in love so that we may please God, since we now see clearly through a glass. The scriptures quoted as the golden text is neither a vision nor a parable but the true words of God. Some people profess to be indigenes of the Kingdom: and yet do not possess love. That is self-deception. They are not in the Kingdom of God; because therein, only love and peace dwell. You are wasting your time if you still nurse hopes of coming into the Kingdom after indulging in sin. The fact is only those who possess love and peace would go into the Kingdom; because it is a virtuous Kingdom. Any attitude that is contrasting to the injunction of love is against the Kingdom.

SPIRITUAL CHORUS

I HAVE SEEN HIM FACE TO FACE
Beloved, since you have now seen Him face to face, you are enjoined to reconcile with your brother; and refrain from all manners of sinfulness. Do not complain of being bewitched, afflicted, convicted or persecuted by the evil one; for such beliefs are not entertained in the Kingdom. This gospel is quite self-explanatory. You had always claimed of having seen a ghost, mermaid, witch and other delusions. But through this gospel and spiritual chorus, you have today seen God, His Supremacy, Power, Kindness and Rulership; and having seen Him face to face; there is no need indulging in argument about anything because every work has been concluded.
Beloved, a stroke of a cane is enough for the wise. Let he who has an ear let him hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the entire world. May God bless His Holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU GOOD FATHER.

THE MATHEMATICS OF GOOD-FRIDAY “STREAMLINED”

1st Lesson: Matthew 16: 21
“From that time forth began Jesus to show unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the Elders, the chief-priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day”.

2nd Lesson: John 2: 19
“And Jesus answered “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise up.”

Golden Text: Matthew 12: 40
“For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth ”

Our Lord Jesus Christ Laid the Foundation for His Death:

Brethren, the texts read to you, summarised the theme of our revelation today. It is said that by the

Words of your mouth are you condemned or justified. Our Lord Jesus Christ said that He would go to Jerusalem where He would be tortured, condemned and finally killed. He said further, that He would rise on the third day. I want everybody to be in complete silence, so that the wax in your ears may be removed, and your bad eyesight, due to spiritual blindness, may be restored. As you listen attentively to this gospel, all your encumbrances are taken away, and you are fully liberated. It is pathetic, to notice that the whole Christendom have lied to the world that Our Lord Jesus the Christ was crucified on a Friday. But Our Lord Jesus Christ is the truth, and His words are true. I would want the Zairians, the Cameroonians, the Liberians, the Americans, and others who are present, and indeed all the inhabitants of the world to listen, with rapt attention to this gospel, so that they can correct the wrong concept dished out to the masses by the orthodox churches. It is absolutely wrong to construe that Our Lord Jesus Christ was nailed to the Cross on Friday. This claim has no substance and lacks the biblical foundation and backing.

Many people have been to Bible colleges, or theological schools and seminaries, all in quest of

Studying religions and the Bible. Some have been to India, the United States of America, Russia and other places to study the Bible, for 20 to 30 years. If they still hold on to the argument that Friday was the first day and Saturday the second day, what about the third day? The orthodox churches keep on shouting Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, but they find it difficult to know when He was crucified. The knowledge, of when Our Lord Jesus Christ was crucified, has eluded the entire world. The significance of the Wednesday Watch and Pray, started during the time the feet of the disciples of Our Lord Jesus Christ were washed. The Thursday’s weekly fasting and prayers symbolise the day He was condemned at 6 a.m., and at precisely 9 a.m. the same day He was crucified. I thank Matthew and John and a few other Apostles, who were able to document the teachings and the crucial events during the mission and operation of Our Lord Jesus Christ. If these records were not kept, the enemies of Our Lord Jesus Christ could have succeeded in suppressing the truth, and of course the truth would not have been known. They would have permanently established their deceit and falsehood in the world for their own advantage.

God’s Words Are Sacrosanct:

Our Lord Jesus the Christ had said that heaven and earth will pass away, but not an iota of the word of God shall pass away. The word of God is not deficient in power. That is why when the word of God is spoken; it will do mighty works, and can break mighty stones to manifest its purpose. From Genesis to Malachi, the words prophesied about Him had been consummated. If you are told by someone that there will be rain by 12 noon the following day, and eventually the rain does not fall, how will you regard such a person? Similarly, if a Being tells you that there will be a heavy down-pour by noon tomorrow, and by noon the following day it rains cats and dogs, how shall you regard that personage?

That is how the spirit of falsehood and error are being differentiated from the spirit of truth. If a person says that by 12 noon the next day there will be rain, and eventually by that time there is no rain, that spirit is not from God. But if he predicts that there will be rain and it rains as predicted, then that spirit is directly from the Father Almighty. That is why He is the Truth, and His words are true. Our Lord Jesus the Christ intimated His disciples that the Comforter, and even the Spirit of truth shall be sent whose words shall be true. He also said that the Comforter shall teach and lead all to the accurate wisdom of the truth. It was absolutely apparent that Our Lord Jesus the Christ surrendered His life, and He had the power to take it back. It was He who deliberately volunteered His life and Himself to the Scribes, the Pharisees, and the Chief-priests. It was the efficacy of His words, which manifested when He said that He would die, but that His Father shall make Him to rise up on the third day. It is pathetic that the whole world has accepted the false doctrine of the so-called Christians, that Our Lord Jesus the Christ was killed on Friday. It is a misleading concept, which should be disregarded.

Our Lord Jesus Christ had said that as Jonah, the fifth of the minor prophets, was in belly of the whale for three days and three nights, so shall the Son of God be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights. He said; “nevertheless, I have many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now.” But when the Spirit of the truth shall come, He shall teach and lead you to the accurate wisdom of the truth.

The Bible Confirms that Christ Died on Thursday:

We have not come here to joke, that is why we started commemorating the events of His death since last week. He was killed on a Thursday, and He remained there in the heart of the earth. You can then see that the serious miscalculation of the orthodox churches is very much at variance with the biblical records. Ironically, these are the very people who boast that they have been to seminaries and colleges of theology, to get masters and doctorate degrees in theology and religion. They are not even conversant with simple biblical events and calculations.

Our Lord Jesus Christ was killed on Thursday morning about 6 a.m. If He had been killed on Friday as advocated by the churches of Christendom, there would have been a mathematical error in calculation, as He resurrected on Sunday at 6 a.m. It is this significant event that has caused the Brotherhood world to set aside every Wednesday of the Week for “Watch and Pray”, to commemorate the unique event which ushered in a hallmark, in the existence of humanity.

Christ remained in the Heart of the Earth for three Days and Three Nights:

Our Lord Jesus Christ was arrested and arraigned before the Elders, Pharisees, Scribes and the

Chief Priests at 3 a.m. on Wednesday. This was after the last super He had arranged for that night. According to the Jews, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. was one day, and from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. was calculated as one night. It stands to reason that from 6 a.m. on Thursday to 6 p.m. on the same Thursday was one day; and from 6 p.m. on Thursday to 6 a.m. on Friday, was calculated as one night. In the same vein, from 6 a.m. on Friday to 6 p.m. of the day, was two days. Similarly, from 6 p.m. of Friday to 6 a.m. of Saturday, made up two nights. From 6 a.m. of Saturday to 6 p.m. of the same day, completed the three days, and from 6 p.m. of Saturday to 6 a.m. of Sunday, concluded the three nights. This is the veritable truth, which had eluded the world. The spoken words of Our Lord Jesus Christ have materialised, and those who believe in all these truths are saved, and all their inexplicable teachings are wiped away.

Why We Hold Three Pentecostal Meetings in a Year:

Our Lord Jesus Christ had said; But the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, 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 April Pentecostal is significant, in that it symbolises the period Our Lord Jesus Christ suffered untold hardship, torment and death, just for the atonement of the sins of mankind. It is a period to celebrate the three essences of His mission, torture, death and resurrection. In the same vein, the August Pentecostal Assembly connotes the period when Our Lord Jesus the Christ was baptised, and revealed to the entire world by John the Baptist. That is why the observance is so tremendously significant. It was then that He was exposed to the Jewish nation and the entire world, for acknowledgement and identification as the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of mankind. Hitherto, He had been in the world for good twenty-nine years, but they knew Him not, until He got baptised at the age of 30 years. That is why we usually rejoice greatly, in the commemoration of His revelation through water Baptism.

We observe the December Pentecostal in remembrance of His Divine Birth. If he had not been born of a woman, He would not have been revealed as the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

If He had not been revealed, He would not have died to shed His precious blood for the remission of the sins of the humanity. Also, the December celebration is not for Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, but for commemoration of the divine birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ. It is axiomatic therefore, that where there are those who investigate and ask questions, there must also be a person around to give answers to such questions. This can be likened to a lingering cough that would not leave its victim. The Zairians, the Liberians, the Americans, the Russians, the Europeans, the Germans and the rest of you, might have asked why the three Pentecostal Assembly Meetings are held. These are periods; Our Lord Jesus Christ must be glorified, as was written in the Bible. He must be glorified with activities featuring songs, dancing, testimonies and recitations, in sober reflections of the real essence of observance of these spectacular and historic events, in the life of Our Lord Saviour, Jesus Christ. While doing this, such worldly tendencies as beating of drums, burning of candles and incenses, and the pouring of perfumes should be avoided. His name can better be glorified and lauded without the use of all these things. I would like our first lesson be read once more. Inform your parents, friends, relations and everybody else, why these three Pentecostal Assemblies must be commemorated.

1st Lesson Matthew 16:21

“From that time forth began Jesus to show unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the Elders, the chief-priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day”.

The Holy Spirit Vindicates Christ:

Brethren, His words are just like a ware-house where articles of merchandise, riches and precious things are stored for the easy supply of any goods. That is what I have presented to you, for now. It is our bounding duty to correct the erroneous arithmetica1 calculations of the three days and three nights, duration of Christ’s death, and end the perversion of truth by the world, Before the eventful arrest, torture, death and resurrection. He made a statement that on the third day; God will make Him to rise from the clutches of death and Hades. But for the arrival of the Holy Spirit, His detractors would have falsified history to their benefit. They would have had their way in manipulating everything about Christ for their own advantage; Many people have diversities of opinions and concepts about the source of power in BCS; I would want to impress upon them that the Secret powers in BCS, come from the strict observances of these divine events, for the glorification of His name. I want to prove the importance of this week to you, just like a proof in Geometry or Algebra. The Friday in question was observed in the Jewish nation as the pass-over day. Saturday was usually observed as the Sabbath day. In view of the foregoing, they decided to kill Him prior to the pass-over and the Sabbath day, for fear of causing uproar. They knew very well that the masses would challenge the rulers, on why the holy and historic days should be defiled. Since He was God, who had foreknowledge of their plot and conspiracy, Our Lord Jesus Christ celebrated the feast of pass-over on Wednesday. This shows that the wisdom of God is far greater than the wisdom of men. If He had not wished to taste of the cup of woes, the arrest and the subsequent arraignment before the elders, Pharisees, scribes and chief-priests, would not have been possible.

The significance of “Watch and Pray:”

That is why we in the BCS world, do not joke with the Wednesday “Watch and Pray”, and the love- feast which often follows the divine observance. This celebration reflects His acceptance and preparedness to die, so that humanity might be salvaged with His stainless Blood. The Jews and the Scribes once asked why His disciples never fasted like the rest of the people. Our Lord Jesus Christ told them that it was not necessary for His disciples to do so, when the bridegroom was with them. That is why it is declared that those who believe fervently in Him are saved. I want you to observe these Wednesdays “Watch and Pray”, from now till eternity. As many as will observe it, their problems, sicknesses, court cases, poverty and wretchedness are wiped away. If you observe all these things, as spelt out in today’s gospel, you are saved and all your problems are taken away have other sheep which are not of this fold, they all must be brought, so that there might be one fold and one shepherd. Our Lord Jesus the Christ had finished His works, and the ball is now in the court of the people of the world to observe the three significant events in Brotherhood. And those who sincerely and diligently observe these remarkable events are liberated and saved. Who are those that are clad in white garments? They are those who have come out from great tribulations and have been washed clean by the blood of the Lamb, who takes away the sins of the world. The three days (72 hours), dry fasting is a great cleansing exercise in this New Kingdom. And it is pathetic to notice that many brethren do not observe it, or the Wednesday “Watch and Pray”. The Watch and Pray is one of the events observed in respect of the death of Out Lord Jesus Christ. We who suffer with Him, and are tortured along with Him, are fully liberated from the bondage of evil. These observances reaffirm our belief in Him. This is also the enabling factor, which, by His grace salvages us. We are also glorified with Him.

The Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ made The Last Reparation for our sins:

Forces outside the confines of His authority never caused the death of Our Lord Jesus the Christ. The supreme sacrifice paid by Our Lord Jesus Christ was the last sacrifice to be ever made for the atonement of mankind. It was comparatively unique, for the sacrifices of goats; sheep or cows were no longer tenable or acceptable, since a sheep, ram or cow could not have atoned for the life of man. All such sacrifices were carnally oriented. Our Lord Jesus Christ had to shed His precious blood for the full remission of the sins of mankind. That is why there is no beating of drums, burning of candles or incense, or the using of perfumes in the BCS. We rather fast and roll on the ground in absolute humility, meekness and love for Him. That is why Our Lord Jesus Christ said through the mouth of Our brother Paul, that Christ sent him not to baptise, but to preach the gospel of the death of Our Lord Jesus Christ on the cross, for the liberation of those who had been spiritually enslaved. The preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness. But unto us who are saved, it is life eternal. That is why I am telling you that by listening to this life-giving gospel, those whose spirits were dormant and dead, are restored to life again. All sorts of problems and encumbrances are taken away once and for all, from them. Let our second lesson be read again.

2ND LESSON: JOHN 2:19

“And Jesus answered “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise up.”

The Truth Has Come:

Brethren, have you heard that text? The Bible says; in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word of truth be established. The second lesson confirms the three days and three nights’ death bid, and its unique essence. He said, destroy this temple, and I will build it after three days. It also sets free, as a releasing factor for those who were in spiritual as well as in mental bondage.

Those who were condemned have been freed, and those who were sick in the hospitals are now permanently healed. It is said, “He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory, but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him”.

Those servants who speak and seek for their glory, there is not even an iota of truth in them. They are fraught with falsehood.

I want the conventiona1 churches to prove their case, with regards to the timing and calculation; of the number of days Our Lord Jesus Christ was in the heart of the earth. The spirit of truth has come to unfold all things for the salvation of mankind. Some people are saying that it does not matter. To assume such a position is wrong. This is a unique and important matter, which borders on the foundation of the Christian faith, life, and salvation of humanity, so it is wrong to treat the matter so lightly. Their calculation from Friday will land them on two days and two nights, during which time Our Lord Jesus Christ would still have been in the heart of the earth. This is wrong, and we cannot compromise or condone this satanic and misleading assumption. That is why this gospel must be documented for the enlightenment and the salvation of mankind. Their deliberate attempt to falsify a genuine truth, and to throw dust into-the eyes of the entire world must be exposed. We will continue to expose the truth until Satan and his agents vacate their throne. A member, through false vision, told a brother to reject his former sister (wife) with children and to take a new wife, claiming that the Father ordered him to give such a vision. But the question is: why should the Father do a thing like that. Which Father in the first place? Such a thing is outrageous and questionable. It is equally blackmail and blaspheme. I am opposed to any falsehood in the world, including the Jesus Christ’s death saga. The calculation is misleading. The case of His birthday, which had been fixed, for convenience could be tolerable, but for the death upon which the salvation of the generality of mankind depends, nobody should toy or falsify it on any account. I will not allow any false doctrine to be spread again in the world, and it is against this background that I am advocating, that nothing should be added or subtracted at all in this case. It is said that if a tree does not fall, the axe shall not rest.

Now a greater number of the conventional churches have begun to adopt the BCS (proposed universal) mode of worship. This is in deed welcome news. Man is prone to sin, falsehood and blunders, but God is truth and all His actions are true and just. This should help us to realise that His words, sooner or later, must be fulfilled. Did Our Lord Jesus Christ not say that every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be up rooted. That is why all false and misleading observance, His death and other issues must be crushed.

His death is the foundation, which must be celebrated with pomp and joy. His death has been the last covenanted arrangement, and that was why He said, “It is Finished”, as He allowed His precious blood to be spilled for the atonement of the sins of men. This supreme sacrifice superseded other sacrifices of goats, sheep or rams, and has wiped away all sinfulness. To this end nobody has the right to impute sins to other people. The sin of Adam had condemned the entire human race to death. But this unique and supreme sacrifice has come to redeem humanity from bondage and the clutches of evil; therefore if any Pastor says he suffers for anyone’s sake, he is a blatant liar. It is Our Lord Jesus Christ who had really truly suffered for all mankinds. It is said that the testimonies from two to three people confirm the truth. Brethren, let our golden text be read.

Golden Text: Matthew 12:40

“For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth ”

The Timing of Christ’s death:

You have already been told that the Jews counted 6 am to 6pm as one day, and from 6pm to 6am as one night. It then proves that from 6am to 6pm on Thursday was one day, 6pm on Thursday to 6am on Friday was one night. From 6am to 6pm on Friday made the second day, and from 6pm on Friday to 6am on Saturday made the second night. The third day was from 6am to 6pm on Saturday. The third night was from 6pm on Saturday to 6am on Sunday. By that calculation, our submission has been proved. We are waiting for the Popes, Archbishops, Bishops and Pastors of the orthodox churches to come to prove us wrong. We do firmly believe that no sane person could come to contest this divine, truth except Satan and his agents. Brethren, that is why we have a cause to thank and glorify Him for this wonderful and recondite wisdom exposed to us. On our part, as we believe and practice this wonderful revelation, all our problems, difficulties, sicknesses and deaths are taken away. Our Lord Jesus the Christ is the mediator of the new covenant, the only true and sincere friend. If therefore we suffer with Him, we shall also be glorified with Him.

The Great Exposition:

It therefore becomes absolutely reasonable, that Wednesdays and Thursdays should be regarded as holy days, and must set aside for the observances of these historic events. Those in the secret cults and fraternities do know the efficacy of these esoteric events, but they had for years hidden them from other inhabitants of the world. They personally observed these holy days, but would not expose the essence to the people.

It is misleading to say that Our Lord Jesus Christ was dead whereas He is lavishly moving about doing His businesses, the esoteric wisdom the members of secret cults were trying to hide. Now the truth is exposed so that the Bible might be fulfilled, which say that whatever had been hidden shall be revealed. They tried to hide the truth, but the Holy Spirit of truth has come to expose all things. There is no variable in the truth.

The Jews in Jerusalem have not yet believed that Our Lord Jesus Christ had come in the form of man. They are of the opinion that Elijah must first come before the Messiah would come. But when the Messiah, Our Lord Jesus Christ was with them, preaching and healing people all over the place, they neither believed nor identified with Him at all. They wanted Elijah to crash land, like a bird from the sky. Their unbelief has made them to be visited with untold hardship. And in this era also, people are still expecting Our Lord Jesus Christ to crash land from the blues. Fortunately, even the heathens have witnessed, and have heralded to the world that Our Lord Jesus the Christ is now on earth.

By Natural Law, Every Man is born of a Woman:

He is born of a woman. It has never been heard that any person had ever jumped down to earth from the sky. This is food for thought for the inhabitants of the world.

Do you mean to tell us that Our Lord Jesus Christ was not born by a woman? Was the heavens not there for Him to crash land from? We do not want to divert into that area right now, but we simply want to expose the necessary ingredients to affirm the authenticity of this divine claim and revelation. The three days and three night’s saga are too strong and important to be ignored. For God said through prophet Isaiah, that they will hear, but will harden their hearts. They do not want to see reason so that they might be saved. It is the Father who is doing His work. I do not see how a man could be so foolish as to fail to see reason. A person who goes to the Bible college or college of theology should be conversant with the Bible. Nevertheless, this simple mathematical calculation has eluded them. They do not realise that Our Lord Jesus was crucified on a Thursday. It is God who has beclouded their intellects and has hindered them from seeing reason. When the angels told them that this same Jesus which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven, the worldly people interpreted it to mean that He will crash-land from the blues. It is pathetic to realise that the people of the world do, not know the simple meaning of this statement. The full meaning of it all depicts, that just as He was taken up as a human being, it is in the like manner, that is, as a human being that He shall come back.

Revelation 12: has clearly affirmed the truth that He must be born of a woman. It is pathetic that most of them who have graduated from Bible colleges or colleges of Theology, (and some have twenty to thirty Bibles of various versions but still), have not been able to give the correct interpretation to this simple Bible quotation. Brethren, we should watch out for what may happen in the nearest future, it should not be a surprise to you.

Brethren, I do not intend to take you further. A stroke of the cane is sufficient to the wise. Those who have ears to hear let them hear. May God bless His holy words. Amen!

Thank You Good Father.

EVERLASTING GOSPEL 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

THE MEMORANDUM OF THE NEW WORLD
FIRST LESSON: MARK 8:34
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

GOLDEN TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 4:1-2
I charge thee therefore before God, and the 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 longsuffering and doctrine.

INTRODUCTORY CHORUS: “When the word of God is in my heart I will have life.”

THE WORD IS MAN
Brethren, My duty in the kingdom of God is to preach the word of God because the kingdom of God is nothing apart from the word of God, which constitutes power, love, humility, peace, faith, hope, patience, self control and all virtues. Wherever you find these virtues, there also the kingdom of God exists. Listen to the word of God and practise it so that the entire world may see the presence of God and accept Him.

THE WORD OF GOD IS EVERYTHING
Brethren, the word of God does not only exist here in Calabar but throughout the entire world. Go and teach the people of the world about the word of God, lead them to the accurate knowledge of truth. The problem of the entire people of the world is that, they thought the word of God is meant for certain people. It is for all creation of God. Brethren, you cannot claim monopoly for the preaching of the word of God. It must be preached at all nooks and crannies. Whenever you come to the Father, it is your place to listen attentively to the Father and comply with His divine instructions imparted to you.

Instead of being attentive when you are before Me, you pretend to be listening to the word of God but as soon as you get back to your station, you do completely different thing from what I taught you. I want you to practise this very word; go and teach others same so that all would receive light. Many people claim that they are not members of Brotherhood church. Brethren, Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not a church; Brotherhood is the kingdom of God, where the word of God dwells. It is also the dwelling place of the entire creation of God, where they listen to the word of God and practise it. Wherever the word of God is received in the world, and the people practise it, peace, tranquillity and progress abide in such a place. The word of God is not something anybody should reject. Whoever rejects the word of God had rejected life, good health, progress and every good thing in life. But if you receive the word of God, you receive life, and all good things. Therefore preach the word of God, wherever you go.

Your duty is to preach the word of God, because the word of God was in the beginning. When you see man, you have seen God and in the same vein, when you see God, you have seen the word. The word was with God and when God created man, He used the word.

THE STANDARD EXPECTED OF YOU
Do not speak evil word, do not listen to evil communication nor get involved in evil at all. But let your prayer be the word of God. The word of God existed before the foundation of the world. Therefore, when you go out to preach do not tell people the Father said but tell them the bible says. As an ambassador of God, you must avoid fornication, stealing and all sinful acts. A man of God must marry one wife, the same with a woman. They both should abide in peace at all times.

THE SCRIPTURE IS UNIVERSAL
Brethren, the word of God was not exclusively meant for the Israelites alone. When our Lord Jesus Christ commissioned His disciples, He said to them: “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, and 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”. (Matthew 28: 19-20)

Now those who had erroneously thought that the word of God is restricted to Calabar and Akwa Ibom State or to members of Brotherhood should take their correction. The word of God comes not only to a particular people or race but the whole world including those who are yet to be baptised. This is because the word is life. This is the memorandum of the New World, the memorandum of the new earth, the government, business organisations, factories and all human organisations. Whatever you want to embark on, you must of necessity include the word of God.

Let our first lesson be read again:

FIRST LESSON: MARK 8:34

“And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

A MIRROR TO CHRISTENDOM

Brethren, many of you, think that this portion is mainly for the disciples of Our Lord Jesus Christ. It is for you and I, and all those who qualify to be called Christians. This is the reason Our Lord Jesus Christ said, ‘whoever would come after Him should deny himself and take up his own cross and follow Him. Whether you are a village head, prime minister, governor, whatever in life, if you want to follow God it is of a necessity that you go from house to house preaching the word of God, help the destitute and do not count yourself worthy. Do not say to yourself, ‘after all I am the king, Prime minister, or a queen. I cannot bring down myself to preach the word of God. Do not stand by while the field is ripe for harvest. You should deny yourself of certain comfort in order to evangelise the world by carrying each other’s cross.

Brethren, the world is blind and incapacitated. All what we need to do is to disseminate the word of God and also put it into practise so that we would in turn gain life. No matter how wealthy you are, without the word of God you are nothing before God. But if you have the word of God you have got everything and without it you are perpetually under bondage. “Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation, which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?” (Hebrews 12:4-7)

THE IMPORTANCE OF BCS MEMORANDUM
Our Lord Jesus Christ is the last foundation; so do not submit yourself to the things of this world. You should submit yourself to the word of God; abide by His injunctions so that you could gain eternal life. Part of the problem you have in Brotherhood today is your failure to read the memorandum of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. If you open the book and read, you will find very useful information in it. All what is contained there is meant for you to practise. If you practise one and leave the others, it means you have failed. Brethren, the scripture was not meant for you to read like newspaper. Rather it was written for your spiritual awareness and salvation. From the teaching you read, you are then to pass it to others by denying yourself everything in the world and submitting yourself to face calmly any tribulation that comes to you. It is your place to carry the word of God to your house, to your people, community, and to all creation of God in order that you may gain eternal life.

A UNIVERSAL LAW
The word of God is the only law that binds the entire creation. The present generation and generation yet unborn are under this divine law: the word of God. The word of God is our Father, mother, the way, life and everything. Through the word of God you can receive everything you need from God. If we are not under the word of God, it means salvation will elude the entire world. It is generally believed that as a civil servant, you must abide by the rules and regulations governing the civil service. In the event of deviation the person involved would have to be disciplined. In the same token, those who fail to abide by the divine instructions of God as contained in the Holy Bible are indirectly fighting against the real government of the universe.

The bible is the only instrument of rulership. Therefore, in order to live a peaceful and progressive life, you must abide by the injunctions of God. If you practise His teachings, all will be well with you. Before Our Lord Jesus Christ gave up the ghost while on the cross, He said, ‘it is finished’. By this declaration, He meant that all evil practices have been completely destroyed and washed away. So, we are now expected to be under the rulership of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In another instance, He said you should not call anybody teacher or master for there is only one master and we all are brethren. The bible is the only worthy teacher to the entire world. Brethren, if you open the bible now and carefully look into what is contained in it from Genesis to Revelation, reading chapter by chapter, you would realise that the entire world is in darkness and incapacitated.

So, in this kingdom our main assignment is to practise the word of God, so that we will receive life and peace. It is for this reason that, the words you speak are not from you and the words I speak are all not from Me but from the Holy scripture. It is also for this reason, that you are advised by Our Lord Jesus Christ to preach the word of God unceasingly. Whether in season or out of season, preach the word of God constantly. You are to reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and humility. So, when you come before Me, you should receive the word of God, put it into practice and take it to others. If you fail to carry the Gospel to the outside world, how then would the people gain eternal life? Brethren, whatever the nationality or community of a person, you are to preach the word of God to him without any discrimination. This is because; it is the only way and life to mankind.

We are no more in the mundane world; neither do we lust after the things of world. We are under the tradition of God. This is the message you must carry to the world that our common law is practising the word of God and abiding by it. In doing this, do not say to yourself, ‘after all, I am not a man of God’. What then are you?

THE IMPORTANCE OF NUMBERS
I have said it repeatedly that, three is a lucky number. Four is unlucky number, two also is unlucky.

In the same vein, the first and second generations have passed away and this is a generation, which the word of God abides by. You should in likewise spread the good news.

THE REIGN OF GOD
Do not indulge in fetish nor consult necromancer. Free yourself completely from the traditions of your forefathers because the word of God has conquered the whole world. So, you have to abide by His word. This is for the entire creation of God.

TESTIMONY
Brethren, you may have heard a testimony by one Brother Nkereuwem. His elder brother was a member of about sixty-eight different occult societies. But Brother Nkereuwem himself was a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and that his elder brother lived in London. So, he wrote and invited Nkereuwem to come over to London and be initiated into these secret societies. But he refused, informing him that he has his own God. When the man heard this he was not happy and so started to try him in many ways. At last, God, through Brother Nkereuwem successfully burnt all the sixty-eight certificates and temples, which his elder brother had attained.

Brethren, have you received the word of God? If you have got it then impart it to others. You must also free yourself from the doctrines of the world and stick to the word of God. If you comply with every instruction given to you by man you would eventually be led to damnation. All what you need to do is to abide by the word of God and teach others to do the same.

The Almighty God, the Creator of heaven and earth is now on earth to establish His eternal kingdom. Therefore, we now have only one Father, one city and one destiny. It is only God’s divine instructions that we must practise in other to have abundant blessing.

Let our golden text be read again.

GOLDEN TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 4:1-2

“I charge thee therefore before God, and the 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 longsuffering and doctrine.”

LOVE AND HONOUR IS INSEPARATABLE

Brethren, that is what we have for you. You do not have any other duty to do than what is written in that text. Now that you received this message, it is expected of you to reprove, rebuke, inform others of what you have received here. Tell the people not to quarrel but to live in peace with one another and to completely avoid evil deeds. Let the light of God dwell in them, so that they may receive peace. The love of God is sufficient to all and His peace is abundant. So, do not believe that God loves others more than He loves you. His love is equal to everybody.

In the same vein, man is advised to love his wife and the wife to honour her husband. Have you now realise that both love and honour are inseparable? The two are necessary for a peaceful co-existence. To the children, He said, children obey your parents in all things for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. To the fathers, He said, fathers provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. (Colossians 3:18-21)

From this you should know that honour is love and love is honour. In a situation where there is mutual respect and love, there is peace and oneness. But if love and honour are from one person, then everything there is in vain.

We must love and honour each other, because through this we receive the peace and blessing of God. This is exactly what God does. God has not kept anybody to be at the head of any thing, because He Himself is the Creator of everything. His words are pieces of advise and those who fail to abide have themselves to blame.

REFERENCE: 1 PETER 2:7-8

“Unto you therefore, which believe he is precious: but unto them, which be disobedient, the stone, which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them, which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.”

The portion is very clear. If you do not abide by the instruction of God it means you would stumble and fall. Brethren, remember what God said to Cain and Abel. He instructed them to come and sacrifice before Him but Cain failed to while Abel did exactly what he was instructed to do. Accordingly he received his full blessing. “And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:” (Revelation15: 5)

Brethren, the problem faced by the entire world is traced to our rejection of the word of God. We do not want to put into practise His divine teachings and for that reason we face series of problems in life. Brethren, daily you receive the word of God and of necessity, you must abide by it. Put other things aside and carry the bible to teach the people so that they may gain eternal life.

Beloved, it is said that, a stroke of cane is sufficient unto the wise. Let he who has ears hear. May God bless His Holy Words, Amen.

Thank You Good Father

THE MYSTERY OF DEATH

1st Lesson :John 16:7
‘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 to you’.

2nd Lesson :John 12:24
‘Verily, verily, I say, unto you, except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruits’.

Golden Text: John 14:18
‘I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.’
Except a corn of wheat falls into the ground and die, it remains alone, but when it dies, it brings forth many fruits
Brethren, I have tried to restrain myself from giving you this revelation. I had wanted to give you rather slight revelations, but I cannot say why the Spirit persists that I should give this revelation, because it is not only a real mystery but also a deep and recondite wisdom of God. I believe that if there is anything that people should petition about and spend their money in order to destroy, it is death.

WHY DEATH? IS IT REAL OR IMAGINARY
Many people have asked why God had established the invisible institution of death, that it should be abolished completely. This question has disturbed many minds as the people complain that death has wrought trouble upon the surface of the earth, that it is the greatest evil and so they conclude that it is a very bad thing.
People have joined so many secret societies with the hope that death should be abolished but nonetheless death has continued in its work. Different types of prayers have been offered and various actions have been taken to abolish death and rip it in the bud but it has actively continued in its work. Some people continue to agitate their minds about the death institution because the moment you think of it, you become flabbergasted for fear of it.

THE DEEP SLEEP
The wisdom of God passes all understanding. Man is always confounded by the wisdom of God. I had earlier revealed to you about the first ‘Adam’ who died and rose up again. You have been told that God caused Him to fall into a deep sleep. That deep sleep symbolises death. And He had died before He resurrected. This is so because except you plant the seed of corn and yam tuber into the ground and they die no new tuber will be duly reproduced.

TO DIE IS TO REGENERATE
If a person is not dead how could somebody be born into the world? You have lived in the world for a long time and one of your hands or legs have become paralysed, all your teeth have gone out, you will not be born again since you are still in the flesh. Why is it that you are ignorant about this issue? Know now that when somebody dies, in his rebirth, he will not come back alone. As you plant a yam tuber and until it dies it will remain alone but when it dies it produces as many as five new tubers. The same thing happens when a man dies. You and God who should be considered a foolish person?

GO YE AND MULTIPLY
When you are on earth in the flesh you answer only one name Okon. But when you die and resurrect again you will not come back as Okon alone but also as Asuquo, Etim, Kanu, Ikwo, Matthew, Kayode, Peter, and Sani, as many as possible. Reason with me, God created only one man, that one man doubled into two and from these two persons, the world has now witnessed an explosive population. Since the creation of Adam and Eve, have you heard that God has made another person? When you plant one tuber of yam in the ground and water it carefully, if it does not die completely, but still lives, it cannot germinate and will not bring forth any shoots. But when it dies completely and farmers take the dead tuber away, then will it reproduce itself into three or four big yam tubers; so is it with man. It is only after death of one man that many others can follow. Believe fervently that if a man does not die, no person will be born again into the world. As long as you live here in the flesh you will only remain alone but when you die you resurrect, in multiples. You will also remember that when Our Lord Jesus Christ was here in His last advent, when He was in the flesh, He was only seen wherever He went to. When He was at Jericho, the people there saw He, when He went up to Jerusalem, He was seen there. He was always seen as a single individual because He came in the flesh but when He died the condition changed. But before He died He had said it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you. When He died and resurrected, He appeared in multi-forms. He appeared everywhere at the same time and many people attested to the fact that He was seen in several places at the same time.

YOU CANNOT BE REBORN UNLESS YOU DIE
We should have the wisdom that Christ absence means He has come as multiple identical individuals. There is, therefore, the multiplication of ‘Jesus’ ever since His resurrection. You should no longer pray that until He comes back again, it is not meant that you should maintain and stand that He abides alone. The only condition He gave was that if He did not go away the Comforter would not come and if He did not die He would not be reborn unto them. Tell me the truth, if He did not die, do you think He would have resurrected? What crime did the Jews commit against Him? What sins did Judas Iscariot commit? What sin has God Himself committed in the matter relating to His death? Should it not be expedient for us to be joyful? Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself had said to His disciples ‘if you loved me you would rejoice because I go unto the Father for the Father is greater than I’. No person seems to understand that statement. We should be happy because if you do not depart you will not return. Sometimes you are poor, sometimes your hairs have turned grey and one of your legs amputated and if you do not depart with these deformities, you cannot come back as a very healthy man with all the parts complete as a handsome man or beautiful lady.

YOU CANNOT ENJOY THE KINGDOM WHILE YOU ARE IN THE FLESH
Most of you now lament, regret and complain that if you were still young or if you had the time to continue to serve God or if time were to be extended further for you to become a student, you would not have married. And I ask you if you do not die how can these wishes materialise. Many of us have lost our teeth, and we are blind, others are variously incapacitated with disabilities, but if you do not die how will you be born, if you are not born how will you have a chance to enjoy this kingdom of God.
Some of you argue that if your fathers or grand fathers, were still alive till today they would have seen God face to face; who tells you that they are not living? It was because of this glory that they died, that they may enjoy the kingdom. If you watch carefully, you will soon discover that most of us are now very old and incapacitated. You are unable to run more gingerly with some prowess, as you should have done. We have gradually leaned up and emaciated, blood, water and other bodily ingredients have become completely exhausted. With such a condition, how can you jump and take part in all the physical movements which we are always engaged in here. Have you the ability to participate in these activities?

YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN
Some of us here, when we were young, rendered melodious songs like a nightingale but today we only crow. So brethren, observe how God is good. If you do not die you will not be able to resurrect and live an entirely new life. As you wish you were an infant, you cannot fulfil your wish unless this body dies yielding the place to a new body in multiple forms. With such a multiplicity, you will enjoy the kingdom, you will not only feel light but will also see clearly and feel satisfied with yourself, and your request for eternal life will promptly be granted.

THE DAY YOU DIE IS THE DAY YOU ARE REBORN
But I tell you that you do not go anywhere. Examine the words of Our Lord Jesus Christ, ‘I will not leave you comfortless, I will come back to you’. The emphasis is not in the future but the present because to die is to be reborn. The day you die is the day you are born. Have you never heard of people who attest that they had seen one who was dead here and there and yonder? I tell you most of the people you argue were dead, some of them are in Lagos, some in Port Harcourt and some in India and others in Russia physically and travel to several places, buying and selling, cultivating the land. You know that most of them also are engaged in their businesses. Are you not aware of this, but you rather say when a man is dead, he is dead and gone forever and that when a man dies, he will go into Hades. Where is the Hades? Where is the apparition, where is the grave itself?
Even the person you presume dead, is with you physically, because immediately he dies, he also resurrects and accompanies you to the cemetery, where you drum, he drums with you. This does not happen in a dream because immediately a person dies he rises up again. He walks with his native attire – cloth and shirt and hat and walking stick, or with European suit, going about his own business physically.

AN INCAPACITATED PERSON CAN NEVER BE BORN AGAIN UNLESS HE DIES
It is rather an ill luck for a person to die and resurrects physically again. It means he is still in the flesh, the same parts of the body are still found with him, his legs are still with him even though he cannot bite, his ears are also there though he cannot hear again. It is even bad with him because he comes back in the flesh. It may happen that he is driven back and he returns in the flesh, this is ill luck. I usually over hear some people expressing joy that God has preserved their lives, because some people died before the New Year’s day. And most others cannot get up because of illness and that they are not like those who die, but I tell you, those who die are better of than yourselves because they are regenerated. All his sicknesses, his poverty and wretchedness, tribulations and afflictions, and his problems and difficulties are all taken away and solved. He thus, becomes a new creature in multiple, though in identical forms. But you are still living in the flesh with all other encumbrances. Can you not realise that the dead person is better of than you are?
WHOSOEVER IS IN FLESH REMAINS ALONE
Upon all the projections into the various planes of creation, undertaken by people, one thing is sure and that is except you die, you cannot be born again. For as long as you are in the flesh, you are still human and cannot resurrect. In as long as you are in the flesh you abide alone and you cannot do anything, but when you die, you resurrect immediately. As soon as somebody is dead he is reborn. Do not weep and wail because he is around, still conducting his business without hindrance, he is more handsome and wiser than you are.

CHILDREN OF THE RESURRECTION DO NOT DIE
Do you know that there are many persons who live in the world and you cannot recognise or identify them? But I will not want to reveal that secret to you. There are many people here who will never die because they have already resurrected, being the children of resurrection. But they are moving about, living in houses, work in the offices, some are independent people, they are numerous in the world and you always regard them as ordinary human beings.
As at now Our Lord Jesus Christ is in your home, He is inside your body, He is inside water physically, spiritually, and otherwise, if He had not died how would it have been possible for Him to resurrect. The second lesson has told you that except a corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone but if it dies, it brings forth many fruits. Is that statement not an eye opener to you?

IN THE FLESH YOU ARE SERVANT TO SIN
When you pray to God to take away evil and to wipe off from you anything evil, how will He do it when you have injected drugs and black power into your body? You have drank certain compound and preparations of concoction and you have so defiled your body that your body is useless. If you are not dead, how will you be regenerated, how will you have a new life and receive the desires of your heart when you have absolutely defiled and adulterated the body. Paul says in the flesh I am a servant to sin and in my spirit I am a servant to Christ. For the good that I would I do not, but the evil which I would not that I do. Now if I do that I would not it is no more I that do it, but the sin that dwells in my flesh.
Do you not know that this mortal body is filled with sin, the body is, therefore, corruptible, if you are not dead you cannot be born a new and if you are not regenerated, you cannot achieve the target of your heart desires. You have eyes but cannot perceive, you have ears, but cannot hear, and you cannot conceive with your heart.

REINCARNATION
You always plead that God should destroy death but year in year out you are still planting yams, maize, why do you continue to plant these crops? Why do you not keep them aside in the house if you will have yams and maize next year? I am compelled to believe that when the church was not established and the words of God preached and the Europeans did not come to evangelise you, your grand fathers had better understanding of this mystery than you have today. Because all of us here in the family will say you were one thing or the other in your previous generation, you are quite aware of this. If you had not died how would you have been regenerated into new life. You can also remember the article published in one of the daily newspapers of a child who died and came back to life after some years and told a certain man that she was his daughter. The man said he was not his daughter, to convince them, she told the father ‘Let us go to see the grave in which she was buried’ if she did not die, would it have been possible for her to be born again. This event took place few years ago, if she did not die, how would it have been possible for her to be born again. She showed her grave to her father and others. But till today, you still argue that people who die are still in the Hades. Where is the Hades? Go there and see.

REBIRTH RESULTS FROM DEATH
The commission by God for man to go and multiply and replenish the earth means that to be born is death and to die is to be born. When you die, you are regenerated and when you are born you are dead. This is just the way the population of the world has increased by geometrical progression. It is the single and best method of man multiplying until God achieves His target. No matter how much you pray that God should take away death, it is a waste of mental exercise because you have defiled yourself completely with fornication, snuff and cigarette. When you take drugs and concoctions and inject black powder into your body, how will God do His work? You have to die before a new life in multiples comes. No person, except the Father, is responsible for this. Therefore, whoever is born is indebted to death and whoever is death is indebted to a new birth.
REGENERATION AFTER DEATH
Do not plead that you should not reincarnate again because it is now too late. When you die, you reincarnate not as a single individual but as many persons. It is equally too late for you to pray God that you should not die, if you are not dead how will you be regenerated? If you are not born how will you die? This is the strategy adopted by God to cause the multiplication of people in the world. This process of life is the work of God. No matter what you pray for, light candle and burn incense and call the name Jesus or Jehovah, you will not succeed in destroying death now. You should not continue to bother yourself about this concept of death only let the will of God be done.

DEATH IS NOT THE END OF A MAN’S LIFE
Examine these two statements made by people ‘until the end of the world’ and ‘world without end’ when a man is dead; people usually think that he should be given that last honour. You are not aware that he has reincarnated like a baby and adult or an old man with his different dresses; this means then that there is no end of the of the world. You thought this would be the end of this world, because the world has no end. It is world without end.
It is foolishness to feel that you are going to give the dead man the last honour, because if he had lived he would have enjoyed the fruits of his labour. His death means that he is being regenerated and has the time to enjoy his children. I am merely illustrating this lesson with the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ because what happens now is exactly what happened to Him. He was the first fruit of the Father and it was written about Him. It has not been about you. Since He is the Captain, commanding the Army, He is always used as an example to the world, for whatever happens.

GOD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INCREASE IN POPULATION
When the Israelites were delivered from the land of bondage, the male adults were 600,000 but do not forget that in any population the women and children always out number the men population. But among those who left Egypt only two reached Canaan. The question is when the people had successfully settled at Canaan, was the population not greater than when they left Egypt?
Have you not heard that because of the sin of fornication 23,000 persons died in a day in the wilderness? For tempting God, many thousands also died, for murmuring against God, many thousands also died. Where did they die? Yet they were heading to the Promised Land. Would you argue that there was no land? In spite of the fact that so many thousand died in the desert, yet Canaan was densely populated. For one person to die, thousands of persons will be regenerated from the single death. Why then should you argue that a certain thing or event is bad, what is evil in it? Instead of your being grateful to God for making resurrection possible with mankind.

WHEN A MAN OVERSTAYS IN THE WORLD HE IS A BURDEN TO OTHERS
We have the reason to be joyful because the wisdom of God passes all understanding. A man lives to his old age, though there is nothing wrong with him, but he cannot see, he has lost his sight, he has lost his teeth, he cannot speak, or think or walk about because as you came into the world so will you return. If you do not go what are you doing on earth? When you have old parents or grand parents at home what can they do again, you have to do everything for them, fetch water and fire wood for them. They remain where they are and pass faeces and urine. If you have to shoulder such responsibilities, what is the use of their continuing live?
And so brethren, I do not wish to overload you, our first lesson will now be read. Listen attentively because the year 1983 is a wonderful year in which the wax will be removed from your ears and the planks from your eyes. The scales will fall from your eyes and you will see your way through, the words of today will dwell richly in your hearts.

1st Lesson John: 16:7
‘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 to you’.

THE DEPARTURE OF CHRIST LED TO THE RELEASE OF THE COMFORTER
You are all aware that Our Lord Jesus Christ spoke in parables for without parables will he not speak. What is read to you is a parable and I am revealing this to you, today. Have you not heard what He says that ‘If I go not away’ that is to say if I do not die, I will not be regenerated and will not come back, but if I die I will come back regenerated. He said it is expedient for you that I die so that I can come back to be with you. You should be joyful, but if I do not die and as long as I continue to live, I shall remain alone, and you will not enjoy the full benefit of my life.
That was why they could not receive the Holy Spirit, because He was alone in the flesh. Since He was not dead, what would have been the benefit if He had continued to live? If Our Lord Jesus Christ were to live till today He would have been still in flesh and He would not have been profitable or beneficial to any person. The world would have perished.

DEATH BANISHES BODILY AFFLICTIONS
If you do not die, your illness and pains will continue to ache and torture you, and you will ever apply scientific medication and indulge in the preparations of concoction, go for medical check up, and X-ray, consult oracles and inject black powder into your body. For how long will you continue to suffer? But when you die you rot and are dried up for a short eclipse and then come back in your new birth as a handsome small boy or beautiful little girl and enjoy the condition of the kingdom of God. When you are regenerated, you come in multiples.

SPIRIT HAS NEITHER BONE NOR FLESH
This explains why when he resurrected, no person, even Mary, could identify Him. The disciples saw Him but could not identify Him; He was now a young man who could not be recognised. When it was morning, Our Lord Jesus stood on the shore but the disciples knew not that it was Him. He said to His disciples, children have you any meat? And they answered in the negative. The disciples were solely afraid for they thought He was an apparition. But He told them fear not, come and touch Me, I am He, for the Spirit has neither bone nor flesh. Come and touch me for I am a human being as you are. To convince them that He was the one, He asked them ‘give me fish to eat’.
While the Spirit is very strong, the flesh is comparatively very weak. Even as you are sitting in here, your flesh is weak unto death because if you do not resurrect, you cannot listen and hear this gospel not to talk about assimilating it. Because it seems to you as in the dream. It is not uncommon to listen to people who claim they have seen apparition. If some one dies now and after sometime when prayers are offered to God he resurrects, every person present will run helter-skelter for fear. How much more somebody who had resurrected and was appearing everywhere, if he appeared to you, would you not have been stricken with fear and you would have taken to your heels.

THERE IS NO DEATH
However, whether you believe or not, it is certain that they are in your midst buying and selling, they are in your offices, and workshops, they are in your homes; they are building everywhere in the mainland part of the state, in Lagos, in Kano, in Britain and in Cameroon. I can assure you that all those you presumed dead are all here with us. All of them are on earth carrying out their lawful occupations. If they appear before you, you will play host to them, eat with them and sleep with them. What are you going to do? Believe it or not there is no death. Sometimes you report to others that when you went to Lagos you saw somebody who wears the same resemblance as the man you knew in your town. He is the person but since your thinking is that when somebody dies he returns to the Hades, you are still ignorant. He is the man you assume to have known before.

TO DIE IS TO RESURRECT
If we had believed that to die is to resurrect, and if one does not die he cannot resurrect, we would have diligently and devotedly engaged ourselves in well doing. And do that, which is good unto ourselves, so that when we return we enjoy the fruits of our labour because all these things belong to us forever, we shall not die.
As a result of our foolishness or ignorance or without the wisdom of the truth we shout and wail when somebody dies in spite of his wealth. For that reason you are given to extravagant living because you erroneously console yourself that upon all your wealth you should always eat sumptuously while you are yet living. So that when you die you may not lose so much, and for that reason also, you begin to cause trouble and confusion for yourself and others. I tell you that you are not going anywhere. You may be unfortunate to be born into the same house you wanted to ruin by your extravagance, and the responsibility for defraying the indebtedness you incurred is upon yourself.
You should realise that most of our problems emanate from uneasiness and you become fed up and frustrated in life. If you were born into the family with silver spoon in the mouth, where everything has been ship shapely arranged, leaving behind for you a good legacy and heritage, you would not have worried yourself, neither would you pray that death should take your life.

GOD INSISTS ON PERFECTION
Since the Father insists on perfection, if a yam tuber is partially destroyed by beetles, and is not wanted, instead a smooth one without any defect is wanted; that tuber would be planted and manure added; So that when it is regenerated, it would bring forth better tubers even more. If, therefore, you insist on such yam tubers, you have to continue replanting and enriching the soil nutrients. This is exactly what God does to human beings. He must always cause them to come and return several times, multiplying during the process until He gets the quality and quantity He requires.

EXCEPT A MARRIED PERSON IS REGENERATED HE CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM
What do you suppose is the meaning of the statement by Our Lord Jesus Christ when he said “But those who shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage”. Who do you think these are? They are the children of resurrection. They have resurrected physically and they neither marry nor are given in marriage because they will never die again. If it happens otherwise then, they cannot be. For even if you decide now that you will not marry, it is only a waste of time and you will be living in a fool’s paradise. It is only when you die and be regenerated that you become a child of resurrection. That New World, the kingdom of God belongs to the children of the resurrection because they have no feelings, or desires, or urges or appetite for sex or any other thing because they are like angels.

MORTIFY THE FLESH AND BE REGENERATED
It is said meats for the belly and the belly for meats but God will destroy both it and them. The body is not for fornication, but for the Lord and the Lord for the body. But now fornication is the order of the day and it has so defiled the body, the temple of the Most High God, that the body is good for nothing. Now that you pray that death should go very far from you, if it goes, will you ever enjoy this kingdom? If Our Lord Jesus Christ did not die, do you think He would have enjoyed this kingdom? It is said flesh and blood cannot inherit this kingdom. But now you have been enjoined to kill and mortify it. Unless you mortify the flesh, you cannot be regenerated in the Spirit. That is why it is said when you refrain from fornication, falsehood, theft, exasperation and acts of sin, you have mortify the flesh, it means you have mortified the body and you will resurrect in the Spirit, and you will be seen lavishly. That is why Our Lord Jesus Christ says we shall not all sleep but we shall all be changed within a twinkle of an eye. Do not doubt these words because not all of you will sleep, some of you will not taste of death for, if you mortify your flesh yielding place to the Spirit and when the Spirit enters into you and gains control over the body.

SIGNIFICANCE OF DRY FASTING
The doctrine delivered to you is meant to help you kill the flesh on the cross with its lusts and affections so that you are regenerated in the Spirit. As the body deteriorates, it means the internal life within you is waxing strong and healthy. As people complain about your health why you have so emaciated, why you have grown lean, whether it is because you no longer eat fish and meat. But in your Spirit, you are seen developing and waxing very strong as a new man. The dry fasting we undertake is likened to somebody dying, because during the period you do not eat, drink, wash, should not urinate and pass faeces, you do not wash or brush your teeth. It is equivalent to somebody gradually pegging away. It is death. It is only when the body dies that you can be in Spirit. When you begin to eat gluttonously, you die in the Spirit and the flesh begins to show that he is the monarch of all surveys.
If you are not in the Spirit, you must be in the flesh, if you are not in the flesh, you must be in spirit. Do not be afraid of anything because all what Our Lord Jesus Christ said, have now been made manifest. Our second lesson will now be read.

2nd Lesson: John 12:24
‘Verily, verily, I say, unto you, except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruits’.

Brethren, have you heard what is read to you? When Our Lord Jesus Christ was in the flesh, He was not seen everywhere, He was only seen at a particular place at a particular time. That was why when the disciples told Him, ‘increase our faith’ and He told them that He had not yet eaten and He had eaten enough then would they eat. That He was not yet glorified and when He is glorified then will the disciples be glorified. In as long as you are in the flesh, you can do nothing unless the body dies and yields its place unto spirit before you will be able to do good. If He is not dead, He cannot resurrect, if He does not resurrect He cannot assume that glory. Can you not realise that He is God, He is the truth and His wisdom passes all understanding, His wisdom has confounded the wise men of this world?

THE LIFE OF CHRIST IS A SHINNING EXAMPLE TO MANKIND
If you like believe, but if not, you need not be concerned again, for Our Lord Jesus Christ is the example of life to the whole world. He is the mediator between God and man. He is the Author and propagator of our faith. He is very typical example to the whole universe. He is a shinning example to angels and to all spirits. He was speaking about Himself when He said it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away the Comforter will not come.
Do you remember that when He resurrected, His appearance was seen at several places in some places about 500 people saw Him, He was seen in the church, along the street, at the market square, He was lavishly seen everywhere, because He was a spirit. What I tell you is not connected with magic nor is it projection nor is it offering prayer but one thing is certain and that is if you do not die you cannot be regenerated. If He had not died He would not have resurrected, and no person would have seen Him and He would not have regenerated in multiples.

CHRIST HAS NEVER DESERTED US FOR A SECOND
Since then Our Lord Jesus Christ has not gone anywhere. He is found everywhere otherwise the work of God would not have continued. His name is being called in your house, outside the home and everywhere else; people call upon His name freely and He is doing His work. But people erroneously continue to wait for His arrival praying always until Jesus comes back again. Did He tell you, He would go some where else. He has always been here with man because immediately He died He resurrected with a host.
Why Our Lord Jesus Christ is seen and found everywhere is that he has now come back as a Spirit. If God likes to open your eyes, you will see Him face to face everyday, wherever you are. As you see Him so do others see him at other places physically, spiritually and otherwise. It is not only in spirit that you can see Him, but you can always see Him physically. Down at 8 Eton Street, Calabar in Nigeria at the early beginning of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, Sister Glover had a revelation in which she saw Our Lord Jesus Christ and the twelve disciples physically, and not in the dream.

RESURRECTION REAL OR IMAGINARY
You foolish and ignorant man who argues that there is no resurrection, was the yam tuber you planted in your farm the one you harvested. You can split one yam tuber into four parts and plant them in the ground. Before they germinate and grow into new bodies the parts you buried must actually die before the shoots grow into yams. During harvest you will not dig up half yam but whole yam tubers. Each of the split yam tubers can produce sometimes three to four whole yams. The same process applies in resurrection. He died as a single person, but He resurrected as a multiplicity of the ‘Christ’ and until this day, He is still with us, He does not die again, though people ignorantly pray that until He comes. He can come in various forms, He can come as woman, He can come as a young man, and you can see Him as a white man physically. He can appear to you and serve you as an old woman because He can take any form.
Sometimes while walking along the street you lament about who should assist you, and Our Lord Jesus Christ, appears immediately before your minds eyes and ask you where you come from and where you are going to. Thereafter He will escort you to your destination. That same Jesus Christ our Lord does it. Do not forget that at the time He is solving your problem and simultaneously another person in India has a problem. Another person in Britain has difficulties and another person is sick or hungry in Ghana, since He is now in multiple forms and since He is like thunder booming in all parts of the world, He is ever present to solve peoples’ problems He is neither discriminatory nor forgetful.

DEATH, IS IT EVIL
Now He is both in the Spirit and in flesh. When He was in the flesh, when He did not die and resurrect, He was alone and what should have brought Him to Africa. If He came to Africa, Europe would not see Him and if He were in America, the Asians would not have seen Him. But now He appears lavishly and is seen everywhere. What is evil about dying as a single individual but regenerated in large numbers? If you love particular specie of yam and you buy it in order to plant in and subsequently have the specie among your varieties of yam. When you buy it, you will not eat it but will want to preserve the specie by planting it. The single tuber can multiply to twenty, when you replant the twenty you may get 100 yams and you continue to plant until you have a whole barn of same specie of yams.
Those who continue to argue that Our Lord Jesus Christ has not resurrected, have they not heard what He has said. All those who argue that He will not come back again; do they read that passage? His return means coming, in the same token, your departure means your coming back, your coming means your departure. Did He not show His disciples how He would go to Jerusalem and suffer many things of the Elders and chief priests and scribes and be killed. Peter almost immediately rebuked Him and said far be it from you Lord that this shall not be unto you. But He told them that the third day He would be raised again. Resurrection is therefore, for all and sundry who believe in Him.

HOPE IS RESURRECTION
What is love? Love is God. Love is something, which is unchangeable and does not fluctuate. Everything will pass away but love will not pass away forever. What is faith? Faith is the ‘Christ’ which invariably is the Word of God. The Word of God you receive is faith, if you believe in the gospel you receive, it is the ‘Christ’. What is hope? Hope is the resurrection. All those who have hope in the resurrection have no problems, because they know that except a corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone, but if it dies it brings forth many fruits. The children of the Resurrection are always happy in the resurrection, they rather pray that death should take the body away that they may be regenerated to enjoy life in the kingdom, the fruit of their labour.

THE DESIRE TO DEPART AND BE WITH CHRIST IS BETTER
Saint Paul was one of the great men who believed that without death no person could resurrect. He had hope on that resurrection and that was why he said I am now ready to be offered and the time of departure is at hand. For I am in a straight betwixt two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better: nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more profitable for you.
Do you think that we still have a single Abraham, there is a multiplicity of Abraham everywhere in the world? Paul, John the Baptist, Peter and others have also multiplied and have replenished the earth. This wisdom is not known by any person. I am, however, talking about Our Lord Jesus Christ because there is no statement of his which has not been fulfilled. He said, except the corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies it remains alone, but when it dies it brings forth much fruits. Have you not seen much fruit brought by Our Lord Jesus Christ? He is with us everywhere, inside the sea, on top of trees and everywhere, He occupies every space protecting, saving, giving assistance, warding off evil, healing all ailments and maintaining every person and everything.

OUR LORD JESUS PROTECTS US
It is said, whosoever is born of God does not commit sin but he who begotten of God keeps himself and the wicked one does not touch him. Who is the Son of God? Is he not Our Lord Jesus Christ? Apart from Our Lord Jesus Christ who possesses love? Apart from Him who is merciful, truthful, apart from Him who can tolerate us, and watch over our souls? Can you not realise that if Our Lord Jesus Christ had not gone away He would not have returned in the multiple numbers He appears now? Because He realised the field was indeed all white but the reapers were not there that was why He said it is expedient that I go away that I may come back to you quickly and appear to you in abundance. Now He does not travel by canoe, car, and boat. But He is found everywhere and before He sends you to a place He is already there because He appears everywhere.

OUR LORD WENT INTO THE HADES TO TAKE DOMINION OVER IT
He dwells inside you; in your dream and in vision you see Him; He is speaking to you in Spirit; He is in front of you; He is sleeping with you and simultaneously, he is with your brother and other brethren wherever they are. Do not be deceived again that you should wait until Our Lord Jesus Christ comes back. Have you not seen Him now? He dropped down dead and almost immediately He resurrected with a new life in multiples. This resurrection is also meant for me and you and every person without exemption. Our Lord Jesus Christ went down to the Hades during which period He obtained the keys of Hades and death, chained death itself, broke the spear of death and destroyed Hades itself thus reigning supreme without barrier.

STOP DEATH, AND STOP THE GROWTH OF POPULATION
In the civilised countries even in the less civilised one, laws have been promulgated to legalise abortion to off set the Malthusian principles of population explosion, which if left unchecked will lead, to a world shortage of food. In spite of the legalisation of abortion in many countries, the world’s population is not checked. For as long as people die, people will continue to be born. Unless it is possible to stop death otherwise, there will still be births. The same law was to be promulgated in Nigeria. It would not serve any useful purpose. If you want to stop the growth of population, you have first of all to stop death. Because if people do not die no person would be born, even if you marry a hundred women, they will remain as males.

AT THE END OF YOUR ASSIGNMENT ON EARTH YOU HAVE TO DIE
Tell me why people will not die. Somebody has completed his assignment on earth; he is so old that he cannot see again, it would be time for him to take his next assignment after rendering an account of his earlier stewardship. He cannot see or walk or do anything for himself and you will plead that he should continue to live. Why should he tarry any longer? Since he has completed his first assignment, he should take up the second.
Some people beget children at their old age, by the time you beget children, you are already too old, how can you enjoy them? You therefore, have to go so that you come back to enjoy them. Sometimes, you have been very kind and benevolent to many people. And you are not weary in well-doing, supposing you are old and cannot enjoy the fruits of your labour at a time the people should compensate you, you will not enjoy whatever they give you because all parts of your body are aching. In order to enjoy these things, you have to depart so that you can come back to enjoy these things. Why do you argue that it is not good?

WHAT YOU SOW THE SAME WILL YOU REAP
Your main problem is that you are still ignorant of the fact that to die is to be regenerated. Such ignorance induces you to steal and be indebted to others, when you come back you will defray all your indebtedness before you can settle down to enjoy yourself. Some people immediately they are born, things are very good with them, and everything runs smoothly with them. It is the result of what they did that they begin to reap the fruits of their labour. Another person begins sufferings as soon as he touches down on the ground, he cultivates the land but finds it difficult to eke out a living, it is also the result of what he has sown that he is reaping. If you are indebted, your bank account will be depleted until you have defrayed your indebtedness. So long as you do not defray your debt, you will continue to repay the debt any time you come back to the earth plane. This type of occasion has occurred too often.

WHO BELIEVES IN RESURRECTION?
Our Lord Jesus Christ, has advised that when you ‘make a feast, you should call the poor, the maimed, the lame and the blind, that you should be blessed, for they cannot recompense you, for you will be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.’ About 99% of the population of the world do not believe in the resurrection. If you were to have hope in resurrection then you would not have taken thought of yourself about death because death does not exist, but a figment of people’s imagination. Forget completely about death but do what is good knowing that whatever you do, you are sowing for yourself.
The disciples struggled among themselves who will be the greatest among them, since He took His physical exit from this earth plane which of them stepped into his shoes. No person took over from him. Each person is occupying his own position, there is the division of labour and no person encroaches on the position of others. The Golden text will now be read.

Golden Text: John 14: 18
‘I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.’

What is read to you is quite plain though I do not understand any language. But Our Lord Jesus Christ was speaking in the present continuous tense, I am coming back to you, He did not say that He will come back to you. It is, therefore, erroneous for you to pray that Our Lord Jesus Christ should come back, He has not indicated His return in the future.

A CHALLENGE TO THE WORLD THAT CHRIST HAS NOT GONE ANYWHERE SINCE HIS RESURRECTION
Read the texts to the ignorant and the fools show them to all the inhabitants of the world because I declare this from high heaven. When they hold the belief that He will come back again, I challenge the inhabitants of the world for this belief. He says it is expedient that He goes away, because if He goes not away, the Comforter will not come to you but if He goes away, He will send the Comforter unto you. He says again, except a corn of wheat falls on the ground and dies, it remains alone but if it dies, it brings forth much fruit. He says finally in the golden text I will not leave you comfortless, I am coming back to you. This means that Our Lord Jesus Christ has not left us for even one inch. He has been with mankind since His resurrection and the Father is doing His work. However, many people still feel that He is on the sky, while others say until He comes back again, and I ask you, where has He ever been to?

APART FROM OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST NO PERSON GRANTS YOUR REQUEST
Has He not advised that whatever we ask the Father through His name, He will surely do it for us? Has He ever advised you to ask through any other name or through any other thing? But He says if you shall ask anything in My Name I will do it. Can a dead person or somebody who travels to distant place make such a statement? Ask your carnal father anything whether he will do it for you; ask the government anything you like whether it will do it for you. But ask Him, He is a living person, and He will grant your request.
You do not read your Bible, even if you read, you do not understand the writings, Our Lord Jesus Christ does not die forever. Do you also know that His ascension means descent? The day He ascended into heaven was the day He came down to the earth. Similarly, when He descended to the earth at His carnal manifestation, He ascended into heaven. The story of Our Lord Jesus Christ is a simple one. The time of His birth was the time of His death and the time of His death was the time, He regenerated full of power endowed with wisdom and prowess, having power to rule the world.

BY THE OBEDIENCE OF ONE MAN SHALL MAN BE MADE RIGHTEOUS
Can you not see the folly of man? Caiaphas had told the people you know nothing at all nor consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people and the whole nations perish not. Our Lord Jesus Christ was of the opinion that it is expedient that He should die because that means coming up again. Brethren examine critically which of the actions taken against Our Lord Jesus Christ was evil, that of Caiaphas or those who arrested Him or His death. Because, if these things did not take place Our Lord Jesus Christ would not have come into the world.

REGENERATION TO SAVE MEANS LIBERTY
When you are in the flesh you are in a confinement, like somebody’s movement is circumscribed by four walls of the prison. There are certain places you cannot go to. But when you resurrect and become regenerated you travel to any place at all without passport and visa. You can enter the flesh as well as the Spirit, enter the air and the fire also, it is quite easy to enter everywhere. Can you not realise that He is the doer of the work at this end of time in the world? When I tell you that I am not the doer but He, you always laugh.
Do not gaze at the sun or the moon; do not go to India or Britain. If somebody tells you that He is in the moon, do not go because He has come back, since then He has been here doing His work every time everywhere. He is never sick, does not experience pain, and has no problems.

CHRIST IS OMNIPRESENCE
Even the three days He was supposed to have been in the grave, He did not rest, He spent the three days destroying death and pains of death, collect the keys of Hades and of death and took complete dominion over Hades as the King of heaven. He also released all the members bound.
Do not say again that Our Lord Jesus Christ is in the sky, because He is always in the sky. He is in the sun, moon, forest, and water. He is in your heart and house. Walk majestically and boldly; call every time without getting tired. He is human, Spirit, fire, air and water, He is all and in all.

FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT SERVE GOD
Do not be proud that you are doing the work, it is Our Lord Jesus Christ who does the work. Do not be conceited that somebody is capable of doing everything, no flesh and blood can do the work, apart from Our Lord Jesus Christ. That is why you are advised to mortify your flesh, and live by the Spirit. If you mortify the flesh, you will be one Spirit with Him. Though we have known Our Lord Jesus Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we Him no more. This explains why you are always told to mortify the flesh, refrain from drinking, fornication, adultery, falsehood, theft and the rest of the vices and surrender yourself to Him. See Him, serve Him and dwell with Him.

BROTHERHOOD IS THE NEW KINGDOM OF GOD
Have you not remembered that people in the world address you as witches and wizards, this is based on the little faith you have, because you are being seen physically everywhere. Two or three persons confess they see you at the same time, in their houses, at the hospital: you confess with them whether they close their eyes or not and so they conclude that yours is not a church but one of the most powerful witchcraft cult. They see you both physically and spiritually; you are being seen in the moon and in the stars, in water and everywhere. That is why no matter what explanations you put forward, they do not seem convinced that yours is not a secret society that you belong to a very powerful cult.

YOU WORK HARDER AFTER REGENERATION
Many of you argue that you have never gone overseas. I tell you that have gone; you are entering inside water and loosing them that are bound in chains, you are climbing to great height and loosening the robes, you are entering everywhere and releasing all those who are chained, and liberating all those on bondage. You go to the hospitals and liberate those affected by the machinations of the evil ones. That is why they conclude that your witchcraft is the most powerful in the world.
Those who are Christ’s have crucified their flesh with its affections and lusts, and are now living in the spirit. This is a spiritual warfare. You need no candle or incense or perfume or any other thing but wherever you go to people are always petrified with fear and astonishment that they will openly express that the wizards have arrived again. The spirit will reveal to the people what you are and the elemental spirits of the universe will bow down to you.

MORTIFY THE FLESH WITH ITS LUSTS AND AFFECTIONS
Have you not been confronted with the question, what society do you belong to? As small as you are if you are seen in the spirit people will be bamboozled. One person alone to enter Calabar will ward off all evils and render all charms useless, so whenever people say you are a man of God, they will not believe but will argue that you are a witch. For the flesh lusts against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh, and these are contrary the one to the other, so that you cannot do the things that you would. If therefore, you mortify the flesh, you will live in the spirit.
The doctrines delivered to you have never existed somewhere else in the world. This marks the end of the period when everlasting gospels are given to you.

Brethren, I do not intend to be tedious unto you, one stroke of the cane is sufficient for the wise. Those who have ears let them hear may God bless His words. Amen.

Thank you Good Father.

THE MYSTERY OF PATIENCE
1st Lesson: James 1:4
“But let patience have perfect work, that ye may be Perfect and entire wanting nothing”.

SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 24: 13
“But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall he craved.”

GOLDEN TEXT: JAMES 5: 7 – 8
“Be Patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord, Behold, the husband-man waiteth for the Precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; -stablish your hearts; for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh”.

PATIENCE, THE WAY OUT
BRETHREN, the lessons above form the nucleus of our discourse. Being acquainted with this gospel is divine providence and it would do anyone good who would be opportune to do so. The number of years which, you spent in BCS is of no use if you do not practice the word of God, which are given to you by the supernatural Teacher.
Many people get baptized into BCS through persuasion and once they baptized the abscond, and they would not participate in any of the BCS activities and will not want to identify with the fold. You cannot call yourself a member of BCS after- all faith without work is dead.

BE PATIENT
Look back to the Rivers State branch of Elders Fellowship who came to Calabar, the large hall was full to its capacity. Ironically, the international Elders Fellowship could not pull half the crowd. We keep praying to God to give us children, money, wealth and houses. The only problem is that we do not have patience. ‘The work done by patience in this world and other worlds cannot be quantified. The Father is using patience as a weapon to overcome the world. Patience is what the world is lacking, without patience nothing meaningful can happen. If you want a reward for your labor, you have to endure patiently to the end. Why you do not enjoy the goodness of your husband is due to your lack of patience. You cannot benefit from your wife, because, you lack patience. You do not benefit from your church denomination, because you cannot endure patiently.

YOUR BANE
You fail in your business because you lack patience. If you are to meet someone for business, you cannot have enough patience to wait for the person. At times, the moment he leaves the house is the time you arrive. Due to lack of patience, you cannot accept any advice from someone.
The first thing we should request from God is patience. Because of impatience you are fond of praying to God to do something for you Instantly and you will not have patience to wait for God’s reply before you resort to preparation of charms, amulets. The same is the limit of the extent you will go to achieve your aim.

WHAT PATIENCE IS
So you can see that your greatest problem is lack of patience. As such, when you are called for testimony your first Confession is impatience.
There is the wise saying that patience is golden. Another one says patience cures all wounds. That is why anybody who has patience would always succeed in his or her endeavors. This is true. There is no other thing you can use to win the world other than patience. This is what God has used to conquer the whole universe and overcome it. Our prayers from one time to another are before Him. And all the things we do daily are placed before Him. He tolerates us because of His boundless patience. If your dealing and interaction with God’s service is devoid of patience then, you may be without rewards. This is also true of man’s dealing with man. If you do not have patience, you will go home with nothing in any relationship with another person.
All the wars in the world are caused by lack of patience. If we have had patience, we would have received much goodness and benefits from God. This is to encourage those who have no patience to pray for it. And those who have a little should pray for more. Also, those who have enough patience should pray for its continued possession. If you have no wisdom but possesses patience you will have peace and can overcome every odd situation.

THE MYSTERY OF PATIENCE
If you do not have money, but you have patience, you have overcome. If you are an orphan but have patience, you have equally overcome the world. No matter your deficiency in life, once you have patience you are well equipped. That is why you are enjoined to give patience a chance. Patience has a special duty to perform in all our lives. Patience is like salt of which if it is absent in soup; there will be no savor in the soup. Patience is more costly than salt.
There is nothing more valuable than patience. And it cannot be compared with anything. Patience is the only driver of a boat and the captain of a ship. If you have mercy and lack patience, your merciful heart will be very brief; it will not last. If you are truthful, but lack patience, your truth would have a short life span. If you are generous and lack patience, your generosity is not going to be durable.

GOD’S ATTRIBUTE
If you are a humble person but lack the patience, you would not continue for a long time, because after a while you will discontinue. Patience is that mustard seed. And it is God’s attribute. Any person who has patience cannot retaliate, no matter the provocation. With patience, one cannot refute any allegation against him. A patient man allows every event to take its course. There is virtually nothing one can do to anybody who possesses patience. That is why you are enjoined to give patience a chance to fulfil all righteousness. Patience is an abstract phenomenon. Yet it is felt. Importance of patience is inexhaustible. Let us read the first lesson:

FIRST LESSON: JAMES 1:4
“But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing,”

GIVE PATIENCE A CHANCE
How can you overcome temptation when you do not have patience? How can you reap the fruits of your labor and good recommendation if you lack patience? How can you attain salvation if you do not have patience? You cannot make significant progress without patience. Our Lord Jesus the Christ overcame all the temptations through patience. It is written that:

“Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased; I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall show Judgement to the Gentiles. He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear His voice In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ streets. A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgement unto victory. And in his name shall the Gentiles trust”. (Matthew 12: 18–21).

GOOD FORUM
Any person who does not have patience is not a child of God. You can never do any good thing in life unless you have patience. Someone can build a magnificent building and set it ablaze in a slightest provocation. A person who lacks patience cannot stop fighting, exasperation, and infighting among other-vices. The Father inaugurated the Elders Fellow- Ship because of His immense love. And He uses the occasion to deliver important sermons such as this topic on patience. Patience cannot be bought in the market, and no one has patience in the world. “A person carrying hernia does not complain of pains but a neighbor complains of sleepless nights for him”. This is exhibit of lack of patience.

ILLUSTRATION
THE MYSTERY OF PATIENCE
There was a well-to-do man who was creditor to many people. One day, he summoned all his children and asked them to make -their requests, as he was to travel the following day. Some children wanted cars, gold, bicycle, new designed clothes among other mundane things. However, a daughter asked him to buy patience for her. The girl made this request because she knew that her father was deficient in patience. This was informed by many court cases he instituted against his business partners. As far as the man was concerned, the daughter’s request was frivolous because unlike the requests of other children, patience is an abstract thing. As such, he purchased the needs of all other children except patience. Something within him prompted him to look for the only request (patience) to buy. He continued to move from one shop to another for patience. None of the shops had patience for sale.
This delayed his departure. Since he could not find it in any shop, he decided to go from one street to another in search of patience. By implication, he has started to develop patience by moving from one place to another searching for it. He then made a promise that anyone who would have Patience for sale would be paid any amount of money. He got to a place where he was told that patience was sold there. But that the king must be patience in order to purchase patience. But the man did not even come out to meet this king. The king wanted to confirm whether the man actually had patience to sell. He was enjoined to exercise patience before he could buy patience. He informed the king that, if he did not exercise patience, he would go empty handed, when the king was eager to confirm his claim.
So the king continued to wait until late in the night. It was at this time that the man inside the house put up a light He came out but did not treat the king as a visitor. He kept the rich man waiting for a very reasonable time. This shows how costly patience is. Irked by the delay, the king wanted the man to confirm the assertion only to be admonished by the man that, the king might leave without patience. And that, if the, king was patient, it would cost him nothing to buy patience. Late in the night, the wife to the man who sold patience returned from the market. The king thought that the man was going to beat up his wife for coming back late. He was not annoyed with his wife. By the time the woman could serve her husband with food, it was late in the night. After the dinner, the rich man was given a guestroom to rest till the following morning.

In the morning, many people kept coming in to express appreciation to the couple for giving them patience. They thanked the couple that since they bought patience from them, they were able to have peace in their lives. These people gave money in appreciation to the family for the work well done. The rich man left: for home without informing his host. Normally, what he used to do when he came back from a journey was to summon his children and servants. These people would feed him with every information. He would always react irrationally on the information he received and thereby instituted court actions against his debtors and business associates who in one way or the other could not meet their contract agreement. But in this case, he did not entertain complaints and was not annoyed with anyone. This was unusual. He did not tell them prices of the wares he bought from the trip, his servants and children sold these materials higher than the normal prices. His debtors came to settle their indebtedness on their own, unlike his former approach of coercion.
The elders of the village and other people who had land cases with him on learning of his return, and his new approach, decided to hand over his lands and his other properties. The people were afraid of his unusual calm and misconstrued. As a result of this action, a new chapter was turned in his history. He had peace and became exceedingly rich. For that reason, he gave N500 to the man who taught him patience. Getting there he told the man; that he had actually sold patience to him that he should have the money as a token of appreciation. The rich man became known far and wide. Other chiefs and rulers came to him and asked him to include their domains in his kingdom. There was a perfect peace and happiness in the land. See the second lesson below:

2ND LESSON: MATTHEW 24: 13
‘But he that shall endure onto the end, the same shall be saved.

THE TIME IS NOW
What happened to the rich man can happen to anyone who gets acquainted with this particular gospel. Make an attempt to practice this gospel and see its wonders on you. I will be overstating the fact, if I tell you the reward of patience. If you have been thinking that people do not love you and that things are hard with you, try this gospel and see the miracle of patience. The second lesson underscores this fact. And in another portion, the scripture has it that:

“Whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it”.
(Matthew 16: 25)

The time of foolishness has passed. If you advised to be impatient, fight, or cause confusion, before your needs are attended to, this is not true. Such things would rather bring death to you. If people call you a bad person, you should examine your self and you would discover that you are impatient. People call you a fool because you are lacking patience. They also call you a confusionist because of your impatience. We do not exercise patience over situations and that is why we always fail. God is very patient He is the Father of patience. And our Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord of patience.

DEMONSTRATION OF PATIENCE
Recall the local story of the owl and the kite: When the kite asked God what his food would be; God told the kite to go to the earth and bring anything he met on earth. The kite went and took the young owl. To its surprise, the mother did not make any trouble. She could not even turn to look at the owl. When the kite got to God with his prey, He asked the kite about the owl’s reaction; the kite told God the mother of the young owl did not utter any word. God ordered the kite to go back with the young owl immediately, because, the kite might not know what the mind of the owl is. God told him to go and bring another prey. The kite picked up a chick and immediately the hen started fighting and struggling with the kite for her child. She made so much noise that the kite almost dropped back the chick. The kite was so frightened that, the first thing it did when it got to God was to say that it would never go to such a family to look for food. He narrated the whole event to God and how the chick’s mother almost killed him. God told the kite that he should make the chick his food. And till now the chicks are kite’s food”.
So beloved, any one who does not have patience is liken unto someone who builds a house without partitioning it into roams. This means that, all his property would be gathered in that open space. On the other hand, a patient person is like an owner of a house with many rooms. If you are in the parlor, you do not know what the other rooms are.

THE SAVING GRACE
Man on his own does not possess any wisdom, power, or understanding, which can help him, However if any person has patience, he would be saved: There is nothing worthy of possession than patience. If you fight against a person who has patience, be reassured that he must win you. There is nothing, which a patience fellow cannot get from God. If you lack patience, all your efforts end in failure. The impatient people always ends in nothingness.
I want all human beings, the military, paramilitary, civil, business world, and technicians to buy this patience by reading this gospel. There is nothing, which is permanent. A slave today can become a king tomorrow.

CHRIST AS A MODEL
Impatience is the cause of all coups detats. A friend today can become an enemy tomorrow. Our lives on earth is very short, as such, patience, should be a guide. If you possess patience you can never have problems with people.
Why was it possible for Job to regain all his properties, which he lost during the period of his temptations! It was because of his patience. Our Lord Jesus Christ overcome the entire world and conquered them with patience. If He did not possess patience when He was falsely accused, He would have quarreled. Even Pilate was so surprised to the point of asking whether He (Jesus) could not defend Himself; He did not challenge any of their claims and accusations. The Jews did shameful and provocative things to Him, but He did not fall short of His patience. At the end of it all, His glory is the greatest in the world. Read the golden text below:

GOLDEN TEXT: JAMES 5: 7–8
‘Be patient therefore, brethren. Unto the coming of the Lord, behold the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth and hath long patience for it, until he receives the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient, stablish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh’.

BE CONSOLED
Let us all have long patience no matter the condition and situation we find ourselves in. Do not worry yourself about anything, which happens to you. But wait for the fullness of time. Always console yourself with this Golden Text.
May be you have been doing good things to people. Be consoled that God had kept a date to compensate you. However, if you do not possess patience, you will become irked and lose your blessings. Patience makes someone to be perfect and spotless. But to be impatience makes one irrational.

May God bless His Holy words, Amen.

Thank You Good Father

“THE NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH”
FIRST LESSON: II PETER 3: 13-14
“Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless”.

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREWS 12: 14
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”.
OUR ULTIMATE GOAL
Having read these Biblical excerpts, who are those waiting diligently for the new heaven and the new earth? Judging from the operating system of the Churches of the world and the sinful approach employed by the so-called Church leaders the world over, which of these churches would you say is waiting for a new heaven and a new earth? Take a critical look at the different countries of the world, races, governments, institutions, groups and individuals and juxtapose their atrocious, fraudulent and high level crimes in the world today, would you say that they are those who are truly waiting for the new heaven and a new earth? These accounts for what Our Lord Jesus Christ emphatically told the Samaritan that she worshipped what she did not know, but they (Christ) worshipped what they know, because salvation was of the Jews. Read from: St. John 4: 22. “Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews
The same is obtainable in the world till date; the whole Christendom, Moslem, Hindus, Buddhist, Bahai Faith, Judaism etc., plunge themselves into worshipping what they do not know about. Take the so-called Christians for instance, they claim to be worshipping Christ yet their ulterior motive is to acquire wealth for themselves and their immediate families. They extort money from their members and in turn teach them false doctrines. The churches of the world do not worship God in the real sense of the word, rather they develop mania for idol worship, fornication, adultery, stealing, brow beating, husband and wife snatching, murder and personal aggrandizement. Their target is to acquire wealth at all cost.

Even some members in this Kingdom do not come here with the sole aim of worshipping God; rather their motive is to get their problems solved. And some come for protection, while others come so that they may be blessed with wealth, blessed with children, wife, husband etc. You come here so that you will be given a job, you come here so that you will be discharged and acquitted in your age long court case. Some come here so that they will be feared and respected in their families’ etc. Note that except you come here with the mind of worshipping God; you are just like the people of the world that have not come here at all.
You are the cause of your various problems. If you were to know what Brotherhood is and worship God as such, you would not have any problem at all. I want to sound this point loud and clear to you that, in this Kingdom we have no need for money, husband, wife, children, wealth, position and all such mundane things. All we are waiting for is the new heaven and a new earth. The time is nigh for all to join the band of onward march to the new heaven and a new earth. Desist from the search for wealth. If you do not stop to crave for the material things of this world, you are in fact moving into perdition.
Many people here still focus their hope on material things. That is why people say that they want to identify with the Crusaders so that they will be rich, some say that they want to join the Visioners Fellowship so that they will be respected in the society. Nobody ever talks of being baptized into this Kingdom for the sake of having a share in the new heaven and a new earth. The latest is that people scramble to be ordained, as a Child of God so that they will be before the Father, eat free food and be given priority in anything in this Kingdom; in nursing such ambition, you are deceiving yourself. The prime thing is for you to think of having a fair share in the new heaven and a new earth, which the Father is due to fully, establish for His elects. If you have anything in mind other than this new heaven and new earth, note that you are merely worshipping what you do not know.

I want you to realize that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star has nothing to do with the material things of this world. Ours is the new heaven and a new earth where righteousness, Jehovah God and His Christ dwell. If you have this at the back of your mind you will not have any cause to worry about the mundane things of this world. It is always a thing of surprise to the people of the world to see the true Brotherhood members who are deserted by wife, husband, children etc, for the sake of this Kingdom, yet these people are not bothered about their loss. This class of people knows the worth of the Kingdom and its glory, which they will enjoy at the end of their race.
There is no where else you can find peace, righteousness and life apart from here in the Kingdom of God. Our faith in this Kingdom is not in the material things of this world, rather, it is in the new heaven and new earth. We hope and believe in its arrival. If truly you are waiting for this new heaven and a new earth, you have to possess peace, love, mercy, and be rich in all virtues and you have to be without blemish. This Kingdom desires nothing other than truth, love, peace, humility, forbearance, mercy and indeed all righteousness. These are our ultimate goal. That is why you find that the same is preached to you here every now and then. It is no news that a reasonable percentage of the so-called members of Brotherhood worship what they do not know about. This is so because they merely prefer to be Brotherhood members. They do not come to the Headquarters to hear directly from the horses’ mouth. But only restrict their worship to out-station Bethels and fabricate false doctrines and teach that to others, thus portraying Brotherhood in a bad light. But as many as come here to receive these true teachings, practice and teach the same to others have no problems at all. Those who do this will have love and live peacefully with all men. They delight in nothing other than righteousness; this class of people has hope in the new heaven and a new earth. To this set of people, the glory of this Kingdom has been revealed to them.

Recall when the Pharisees sought to know from Our Lord Jesus Christ when the Kingdom of God shall come. What was His response? He answered them that the Kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; nor will they say, lo! here or lo! there! For behold, the Kingdom of God is in the midst of you. St. Luke 17: 20-21. Many people who lack this knowledge have derailed from rectitude. A lot of people backslide because their motives in this Kingdom are not met. Those who came here to acquire wealth and all sorts of material things have fallen prey to the members of the so-called born again churches in the world. This class of people are decoyed when they hear that, “you have been baptized into Brotherhood for several years, yet you have no car, house, husband, wife, children, good job etc, why then do you still go there when all your peers have got virtually everything in life”? On hearing this, such people will begin to have conflicts in their thoughts. On realizing that, the so called born again will deceive them into their church in the guise that all these and even more things will be given to the converts by their God. Little would these people know that yielding to such plea is good as accepting to be buried alive. They will immediately pack their long list of carnal desires to their new found ‘saviour’. From that moment, they have opted for eternal condemnation. Their desires for wealth will not be met and they will forever not have peace, joy and freedom.
This same reason explains why you see people wandering from one church to the other and from one hospital or juju priest shrine to the other yet do not have peace. But a true child of this Kingdom has no problem; he is ever blooming with joy every minute. At times many people begin to wander why we converge here every blessed day singing, dancing and receiving the word of God, and get surprised that we do not spare a time for rest. Of course, the reason for their thought is lack of adequate knowledge about our hope and expectation. They do not know that we are desirous of sharing in the new heaven and a new earth. Already we are in the Kingdom of God where righteousness and peace dwell.

God’s word is true and ever sure. We have read that it was written that this generation would not pass away until all the words of God come to manifest. Read St. Matthew 24: 34. “Verily I say unto you, this generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled”.
Today have you not seen all that was written about this age manifesting? The limiting factor for very many of you in this Kingdom is that you are still walloping in sins; so long as you are still in sin, you are blinded against God. The truth is that no sinner can see God. For you to see God and be in close communion with Him, you have to sanctify yourself. Furthermore, for you to benefit from your call into this Kingdom, you have to re-order your priorities. Stop henceforth to ask God for mundane things, rather focus your hope in this new heaven and a new earth where righteousness and peace dwell. This is the Kingdom of God. For you to merit it you have to refrain from sinful acts and frivolous demands, after all, these are not what brought you into this Kingdom.
You came here principally to inherit the new heaven and new earth – anything outside this is secondary and appendage. Many people have this misconception that when they are told to love one another and embrace peace, it is because in so doing people will love them back, so that they will have to utilize that avenue to establish links that will aid them to acquire wealth. Far be from this; the fact that you are told to practice righteousness is to qualify you to inherit the new heaven and a new earth. Therefore, brethren, whatever is done here is not to please man or acquire wealth. It is for the sake of the new heaven and the new earth that we are awaiting. Ipso facto, it behoves us all to be without blemish.

The people of the world see Brotherhood members as a group of insane fellows, why this impression? It is because we do not want the things of this world, our hope is in the new heaven and a new earth and our lives depend on its arrival because it is our treasure. For it is said that where one’s treasure lies his heart is there. The reason why we opt for the new heaven and a new earth as opposed to the material lust of their world is that the material things of this world will soon fade away with time, whereas the new heaven and earth is forever.

RECALL ISRAELITES EXPERIENCES IN EGYPT
Everything you see in this world is temporary. They are nothing to depend on. One can only boast of his personal thing, which comes only from God. Take for instance, the experience of the Israelites in Egypt. They had lived in Egypt for about 450 years. Apart from history, many of them would not have known that they were not natives of Egypt. Many of them had accumulated wealth and married many wives etc. They were not comfortable there because Egypt was not the land, which God promised them. God had to liberate them out of Egypt to Canaan, the Promised Land at the fullness of time. Note that the Israelites did not leave Egypt because they were hungry, poor or hard up, rather, they needed their own land where they could stay in peace and feel free to worship God.
Think of all the sufferings and hardship they were subjected to in the course of their journey to the Promised Land. Had they reconsidered the good time they had in Egypt compared to their odd experiences on the road to Canaan. They would have retreated to Egypt instead of enduring to Canaan. But they bore it all in the hope of getting to the promised land that flows with milk and honey, indeed their own home. In the same vein, we have hope in the new heaven and new earth. As such, we do not mind what ever hardship and deprivation we experience in the cause of waiting for our goal having been rest assured that the abundant blessings of inheriting the new heaven and earth is beyond human imagination.
Have you not seen how the people of the world are suffering while you are happy? The people of the world have hope in money and wealth but these will soon pass away, whereas the Kingdom of God remains for eternity. As many as have hope for this new heaven and earth have everlasting life. They do not commit any sinful acts. All the kingdoms of the world have collapsed giving way for the Kingdom of God only to live on. Nebuchadnezzar dreamt of this Kingdom, and Daniel interpreted the dream to him that several kingdoms would spring up and fall but that only one kingdom will stand forever. It is none other than this Kingdom you are toying with.

FIRST LESSON: 11 PETER 3: 13-14
“Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness, wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless”.

BCS IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD
This is the Kingdom that John revealed when he said ‘And I saw no temple therein; for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it; for the glory of God did lighten it, and the lamp is the light thereof’. Revelation 21: 22-23.
This Kingdom of God has no need of security guards, law enforcement agent etc. Jehovah God and the Lamb is everything in this Kingdom. All is well for those who accept this Kingdom. There is no fear, hardship, hunger, hatred, poverty etc., in this Kingdom. What we have here is joy, love, peace, truth and freedom. Jehovah God is the sole ruler in this Kingdom. He has put a permanent stop to all life peril and had restored peace to His elects – He is indeed everything to us all.
Recall the encounter of the Samaritan woman at the well with out Lord Jesus Christ. She did not know Our Lord Jesus Christ to be the fountain of the living water when at first, Our Lord Jesus Christ requested her to fetch Him water from the well. When eventually Christ told her that He was the living water to give and that whosoever drank of it would no longer be thirsty. She abandoned all her bowl at the well and demanded of Christ the living water. That encounter led to Our Lord Jesus Christ being revealed to her as the Messiah, Read St. John 4.

It is not surprising to mention that many disciples, indeed Apostles of old lacked knowledge of this Kingdom. If they had known about this Kingdom, Peter would not have asked Christ what would be their reward for deserting all they had in the world to follow Christ. Even today, many Brotherhood members still ask the Father when this new heaven and new earth will manifest physically. Henceforth, your eyes shall be opened to behold the beauty of this Kingdom. In this Kingdom there is no iota of oppression, or influence of any kind. The joy flowing here is flowing in abundance for the children of God. It is a wise decision to let go the world and the fullness there in and to opt for this Kingdom because it is only here that one had everlasting joy, life, peace and freedom is sure. This popular song: “take the whole world and give me Jesus” collaborates this gospel and relates to its theme. If you know the underlying meaning of the song, you will be singing it every minute of the day. I must add that for you to qualify for this Kingdom and for you to behold this Kingdom, you must of necessity, practice love and righteousness in your ways. Note that this is Noah’s Ark and that as many as have entered it are saved. As many as have forsaken sins have seen this Kingdom and have shared in the glory of this Kingdom. If you have not seen Him it implies that you are still indulging in evil practices. Read the Golden Text again:

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREWS 12: 14
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”.

THE CONDITION FOR IT
You must practice the Biblical excerpt above if you need this Kingdom, except you want to loose grip of it. If you are in spirit you will see the Lord but if you are in the flesh you cannot see the Lord because God is a spirit and can only be seen through the spiritual eyes. All those who have come to this realization are those who forsake sins. I want you to note that wealth does not qualify anybody for this Kingdom. All you need to qualify you for this Kingdom is righteousness, aside this, you are far from having a share in it. Once again, I must warn you that flesh has no share in this Kingdom.
Recall when one of the multitudes said to Christ: ‘Master speak to my brother that he divide the inheritance with me and He said unto him: man who made me a judge or a divider over you? And he said unto them take heed and beware of covetousness; for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” St. Luke 12: 13-15. Except we accept to live peacefully with everyone and to practice righteousness, we shall not see God. Let love reign amongst you. This is the new heaven and a new earth where righteousness and peace dwell. And so only the righteous people have the right of inheritance in this Kingdom. The people of the world who profess to be waiting for the return of Christ do not have the prerequisite qualification to behold the Lord. They should be informed that without righteousness no one can see God, otherwise, they will be waiting for nothing.

Today, God is here in our midst. Have the people of the world beheld Him? They have not seen Him because they are sinners. What they can see is money and wealth. They fight, quarrel, and create confusion. They segregate, beat, extort money from people and carve out empires for themselves. This accounts for the proliferation of the churches in the world today.

All those who believe in peace and accept it have seen the Lord whether they congregate at 34 Ambo Street, or not. It does not matter the distance from here, or where they are staying. Many people too have a share in the glory of this Kingdom even though they have not even come here; they are protected and are saved in as much as they have followed peace with all men and have practiced righteousness.

Brethren, it is said that a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise. Those who have ears to hear let them hear. May the Father bless His Holy Words. Amen.

Thank You Good Father

“THE NEW NAME OF GOD”

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: REVELATIONS 19: 12
“His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head are many crowns; and he had a new name written, that no man knew, but he himself.”

SECOND BIBLELESSON: REVELATIONS 22: 4
“And they shall see his face; and His name shall be in their foreheads”

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATIONS 3: 12
“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem which cometh down out of heaven, from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.”
What you have just heard read to you constitutes the knot that I want to fix for the whole world today. Because at this final part of the days, God does not want anyone to perish. The Father has seen that without this gospel many people will perish because of ignorance, that is why He has arranged to give you this everlasting gospel of all times.
Those who search the Word of God, the Bible, will find out that the final part of God’s promise is in the Book of Revelation. All what will take place shortly in this final part of the days are written in the book of Revelation. This is the new covenant with His people in harmony with His purposes.

GOD’S NAME REMAINS SECRET
Many people today call God by the name Jehovah. That is a Hebrew name. Others call God by different names. Here in the Cross River State we have many names that we call God. In the Eastern States and other parts of Nigeria and the whole world, this God is known by different names, but all these names are not His name. From Genesis to the Book of Revelation, there is no single person who has known the name of God; I have not heard it mentioned by anyone at all. What happens is that they imagined that the name, for the various Gods worshipped, should also be given to this true God. He is not known or called by these names. Therefore do not allow any body to mislead you by these names. Do not put your hope on the name of ‘Jehovah’ as the name of God wherever you see it written.
Right from the beginning of the world, many people have framed different names for God. Some call Him Jah. He is not. It is exactly as we have it in the world today. You may see a person and he says that his name is Okon, but that is not his real name. So it is with some of you here; you probably have up to five names; the names you are called in the office, the name you are called in your family, the name you are called in friendly circles, the one you use in duping others, and other nicknames that you use as opportunity calls for.
All these are not your true names. Especially the names that you answer in your office and on your certificates may be different from the names you are known at home. The names that you answer in a strange land are not the ones you are known at your home. As a matter of fact the very names given to you by your fathers are not your names. God alone is the one who knows individual names. This is a hidden truth to the whole world from the beginning of creation. How many of you here know your names? That is why it is of no avail to boast in names because what you bear, as names are not your names. This is what has set the whole world aflame, this is what is robbing, cheating and even killing you today. This is what has misled the whole world – name! Because someone will come before you and tell you that he is Joseph, and you may take him to be a good Christian because of that name, but very soon you will realise that there is nothing in that name but falsehood.

A SECRET NAME
God’s word tells us that the one that has come to rule the whole world has come with a new name. He has a name inscribed on his garment, which no one knows, but himself alone. I am speaking to you, who are waiting for Jesus. I am speaking to you who are waiting for Christ. I call your attention to this, you who are waiting for Jehovah. I speak to you who are waiting for Prima. I am addressing you, who are waiting for Jehovah Jah. Yes, you who are waiting for a Saviour and Emmanuel. You will not see them. Of course Emmanuel may come to you and tell you that he is that Emmanuel that you heard of but it will be a deceit.
BEWARE OF FALSE GODS AND CHRISTS
Jesus said that there will be false Christs. Be on the alert, because some will come to you and say, I am Jesus or Christ, and you will bow down to him. Beware he is not. Even if you were to see in a vision Jehovah written on somebody’s forehead, do not worship him, he is not. That is why you are advised to beware of names so that you may not be led astray; because someone will come to you saying that he is the long expected one, when he is not. Since the foundation of the world, there has not been any creature that has known the real name of God. What Christ was able to reveal to us was that He is a spirit and He is the Father. We accepted this revelation of Christ. John further revealed God as love. Christ revealed himself as The Way, The Truth, and The Life. Therefore do not follow after any other names, but follow Love, Truth and Life for this will give you salvation. Do not look for names any more for they are deceitful and detrimental.
If someone calls on you do not ask him what denomination he belongs to or what position he occupies in his Church, this brings inevitable rancour. Do not be led astray by the robes of Pastors, Bishops, Reverends, Prophets, Popes, Evangelists or Apostles. Have you not read of false Pastors, Prophets and Apostles? And what of this name Christian? This name has deprived the entire world today. All the troubles in the world, all the crimes committed in the world today are committed by those who say that they are Christians.

Christendom has failed. I say this because some of you, your fathers are Pastors or Reverends. You are quite aware of the ways they use these names. They use these titles for dishonest gains.
But the name of God is wonderful; it is a Holy Name that nobody knows. He has now come to rule both the Heavens and the earth and there is no one in heaven and on earth who knows the secret Name that He is called by, except Himself. Since the scriptures has told us that nobody else knows this secret Name written or inscribed on His garment, it is then futile for any person to waste his time investigating or imagining what should be his Name. More so, there has never been a time that any part of the Scriptures goes unfulfilled because God’s Word must always come true. If this name were Christ, it would present no difficulty for we all know Christ. If it were to be Enoch, Moses or John the Baptist, there would be no trouble, but this is a secret name that he alone knows.
In the world today, you would see many Churches with different names, some are called Church of Christ, Church of the Lord, Church of Jehovah: what have they done? The use of these names does not change them. Others have chosen to be called Abasi, Chukwu, Chineke, Allah, Olorun and other names but these names have no effect on them. Therefore remove your minds from names, but let us pursue truth and love which shall lead us to salvation. For there is nobody on this earth who will know that Name; it is a secret name known only by the one who has it. Let us no more waste our time trying to presume what this Name may be, or try to work out the name in the way you work out mathematics. It is a secret Name, do not worry yourselves. For as the heaven is higher than the earth so also the knowledge of God is higher than the wisdom of mankind.

JESUS CHRIST HAS A NEW NAME
People knew Jesus, as the Saviour, and Christ as the anointed of God. But it is written that he will come back, and when he comes he will have no share with sin, that means His name is changed. In your secular employment there are ranks and grades, For instance, in the Police Force, there is the Constable rank, Corporal, Sergeant, Inspector, Commissioner and finally the Inspector General of Police. Therefore it is most unwise to believe that when Christ comes again he will be called Christ. Does it mean that Christ must retain his former rank indefinitely? In his time, Christ was the last degree or in other words, the master degree. He faithfully performed his assignment and obtained this master degree and was promoted and all powers and authority in heaven and on earth were handed over to him to rule. How then will he come back to answer Christ? If you were he would you accept such a title which is certainly below your rank? Why should he accept such name again? When he had already attained Christhood?
Brethren, do you see how stupid and ignorant the world is? It is written: When the Son of Man shall arrive in his glory, accompanied with his angels with power: consider what it means! Yes, the entire world will be presented to him to rule. And he will separate the sheep from the goats.
Since he is coming in his glory, how will he again assume the names of shame, suffering and death on the cross, which he bore, in His first advent? Do you not know that when there is a change in priesthood there must be a change in the covenant? Likewise when you are promoted, a new name is given to you. He comes to judge the whole world. Therefore his coming this time has no business with sin. And if you do not refrain from every bit of sin, you will not see him. He is not coming again as the friend of sinners. Why then do people wait aimlessly in their homes, that when Christ will come, he will come to their houses, walk about on the streets and cure diseases? Is this not stupidity?
Therefore brethren, go and tell the whole world, that they should discard such belief from their hearts, for in this second coming he will not be known by the former names again.
He comes with a new name and it is a Secret Name, inscribed on his garment that nobody knows except himself alone. If you like answer ‘Jesus’, and any other person may answer ‘Christ’ because he has opened the way for you. He has set those names aside. He cannot answer Jesus Christ again. Hal-le-lu-jah. Therefore do not know any person by name. Do not look for him by a name for you do not know this name.
Moses came, people knew what Moses meant; John the Baptist came, the world knew the meaning of John the Baptist; Jesus Christ came, the world also knew the meaning. But no one knows the name of the one that is coming except He himself alone. This is where your difficulty lies. “Jesus”, meaning the Saviour lived up to the name and was given the master degree which is the degree that every man of God must attain, Christhood is the master degree. What is before us now is the doing of ‘First and Second Steps to God; these will assist you to attain Christhood. So that no matter how many you are, you are just One Christ. In the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

THE FORMER NAMES HAVE PASSED AWAY, NEW NAMES NOW OPERATE
When you read the bible, you will notice that Christ is referred to as Love and God is also Love. But in this case we are told that His name is inscribed on His garment and no other person knows that name except Him alone. Therefore, it is a waste of time for any person to sit down and try to imagine what type of name is referred to or what the name is. The God that is now on earth does not answer Jehovah, Jah, Elohim, or any other names you may call him. And also the one on earth, to rule with iron rod does not answer Jesus Christ, Saviour or Redeemer. I am saying these things because they are going into record and it will be circulated world-wide, so that if someone comes to you with titles and names, either Jesus Christ, Moses or God, or other names, do not listen to him, because no one knows this Secret Name except Him alone.
We are witnesses according to the Bible that in those days the name of Jesus was used to raise the dead, to make the lame walk, why do so many churches that called on this name not able to use the same in accomplishing these great works today? Rather in some places if you make mention of the name Jesus, you will be beheaded. Or if you build a house and you happen to write all around that building the name of Jesus Christ, you would be told to demolish that building. And so brethren, have you not seen the truth in God’s statement, which says that former things have passed away and all things have been made new? Now, Peter, John, Abraham, Adam and Eve, and all other people of old are here but they are not known by their former names, they now answer new names. The former things have passed away; all things have been made new. Why is it that when you are told that God is now on earth, or that Jesus Christ is here and all other people of old you start to look around? Do you think you can see them physically? Read the first lesson, for I do not intend to go further with you.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: Rev. 19:12
“His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head are many crowns; and he had a new name written, that no man knew, but he himself.”

Brethren, when you reach home, read this lesson again and pray to God fervently if he would reveal this secret name to you. It is of no benefit for you to fast and pray and ask for God to reveal this name to you. Instead of you searching for this name, use this privilege to love one another, practice the Word of God, and remain faithful. The first heaven and the first earth have passed away, the one in which you are living now is quite a new one. It is a sheer mistake for someone to say that my name is Okon, Ikwo and so on. Many of you are singing, “look on my forehead you will see the name of God written”. Do you know that name? It is written: “that the name of this God will be written on your foreheads”
That is why many people in the world can easily identify you because of the name of your God on your foreheads. How many of you here know those names that are written on your foreheads? How many of you can tell the meaning of that name? You members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, do you believe at all that a name has been written on your foreheads? If so, then what is the name? The world has not come to know this. Therefore, Brethren, you can see that the wisdom of this world does not carry any weight at all; therefore you should refrain from such course of foolishness. What do you think is written on your foreheads? Do you think it is Okon, Ikwo, Affiong, Moses, John, or Jesus Christ?

THE RULE OF GOD AND HIS CHRIST HAS BEGUN
Now is the time that Jehovah God and His Christ have come to rule. Concerning that day, the Son does not know it or the angels in heaven, only He alone knows. That is why God who made heaven and earth has come down to this earth to accomplish His divine will by himself. And today on earth, there is ample evidence of His operation world-wide. Jehovah God and the Lamb of God are now on earth, although He does not answer the Lamb again. You all know why He was called the lamb. But they have come with new names. There was also a reason why he was called Saviour, Redeemer and Messiah. Brethren, all those names have been set aside, the former things have passed away and now all things have been made new. In the name of our Lord Jesus, Amen.
Flesh and blood cannot inherit this kingdom. Let the whole world continue to look into the sky, into the depths of the sea and to India and Calma, they will not know this secret name. And what about you brethren, I mean you who have been in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star for 10, 15, 20 years, have you known the meaning of what is written on your foreheads? Alright, if you say that nothing is written on your foreheads, why is it that when people look at your foreheads, they immediately see the symbol of light? Why then do people become terrified at seeing you and say there is something else in Brotherhood? When God did not write His name on your foreheads, were you not as good as a public towel to the world? But from that day, He inscribed His wonderful Name on your foreheads, look at yourselves now; have you not become signs and wonders to the whole world. Hal-le-jah!

YOU ARE SIGNS AND WONDERS WITH THE SEAL OF GOD’S NAME ON YOUR FOREHEADS
Do you sometimes think why people should be afraid of you? It is not because of any voodoo, song or prayers or any power, but because God’s name has been written on your foreheads, by the one who is now ruling. He alone knows the meaning of this name. When he wrote this name on your foreheads did you see him? Researchers, investigators, philosophers, I ask you, when this name was written on your foreheads did you know? And you doubting Thomases, you who would never believe unless you see, when God’s name was written on your foreheads did you see Him? If you do not know the name that is written on your foreheads, how would you be able to know the name of that One, which is inscribed on His garment? Brethren, the worldly wisdom has failed and the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. There is nothing else that does all the mighty works here Brotherhood than that name. When all the creatures of God including the angels see this name of God on your foreheads, they fall on their faces and worship God. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, A-men.
It does not matter where you live or any place you may run to, or any cloth you may wear, you will be recognised as a member of Brotherhood. That name on your forehead is glittering and when people see it they are magnetised and the light from there goes into their eyes. God has come down and He is doing His works by Himself. I do not have any problem, likewise yourselves. The white man and the black have no more problems: in short, the world is free. Therefore do not worry yourselves in the quest of who is Elijah, God, Jesus or Christ and others. There is only one God. And as soon as He has written this name on your foreheads you and God is one. There is no more division, people can see God in you, no male nor female, no children; you are alike in this kingdom. Brethren, I do not intend to take you further, but when next you will be here I will let you know more details about what is in this Name.
Many people in the world today, take it as a responsibility to go about publicising that they have seen Jesus or Christ some where. This is a bye-gone work. You do not see Jesus or Christ. He died and conquered death, conquered the grave and Hades and he has been enthroned and given a Name that nobody knows except He himself. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, A-men.
Please tell those who are now scrambling to be known by the name of Jesus, Christ, Apostle, Prophets and so on, that all these have passed away, that the one that has come to rule, has come with a new name inscribed on his garment; that nobody knows except He Himself alone. May we have our second Bible Lesson read. Pay attention to the reading.

2ND BIBLE LESSON: Rev. 22: 4
“And they shall see his face; and His name shall be in their foreheads”

Brethren, do you hear that? That they will see his face and that his name shall be on their foreheads. The Word of God comes like fire. It is wonderful to see this type of glory that God has manifested to sinful people like us here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Examine from any record available, whether there have ever been a period of time similar to ours here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.
Forget about being a Prophet, a Pastor, a Visioner, a Bishop, and an Apostle. All these names are deceptive and filled with falsehood. All who have seen God face to face, have got his name written on their foreheads by the one who has the secret name on His garment. Therefore, you are no longer known by those titles but by the name on your foreheads. No one hears of your Name again, no one knows you by your Names, if you like write your names all over your body, you are only known by the NAME written on your foreheads. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, A-men.
With this new name on your foreheads, wherever you go, inside the water, on top of the hills, in the thick forest, everything that sees this name on your foreheads submits to you. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, A-men. You can move and travel to any part of the world fearlessly; nothing will rise up against you because of that name on your foreheads. Therefore brethren, do not seek again for any other name to answer or seek for position, for this name on your foreheads surpasses everything in the world.
Brethren, is it not a thing of joy for all of us sinners who are not deserving of God’s grace, that God has chosen to write His name on our foreheads? When people see you, they eventually see God, for you and God are One. Imagine this type of love, for a person to be a King, and he identifies all his subjects as kings also. There is no discrimination as to who should have this name on his forehead, no partiality, no division.
Some do not want to see other members wearing the white gown, they say it is for the prophets only. No, this is your garment of glory. Whether you come in today or not, that name will be written on your foreheads and you become a citizen of this New Kingdom. You are no more known by any other name, but by that One name on your foreheads. With this name on your foreheads you are equals, unless you do not have this name on you. You cannot hide your identity when or once this name has been written on your foreheads. You sinners have you seen that name inscribed on your foreheads? The world has rejected you, sin has also rejected you; you have no one on your side. You are of the Father! You are to walk fearlessly, for there is none that can challenge you. It is this boldness that makes people to wonder what you are given here in Brotherhood.
Every word of God is accompanied with Power. Therefore do not ask any question of what is written on your foreheads, because all that were written about you are now fulfilled in this final part of the time. Do not worry yourselves to fast in order to know about the name on your foreheads, that is contention and egotism; this will be disastrous to you. Take the words that Christ spoke to his disciples when they returned from the ministry to heart:
Do not rejoice because you have children, do not rejoice because you have seen Him face to face, and He has written His name on your foreheads.
If you look on your face in a mirror you will not see this name. If you approach a visioner to tell you what is written on your foreheads, he will not see it. He cannot tell you.

Because that name is an everlasting redemption for all children of God. Do you remember when the four angels were standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree but one of the angels stood by and told them to hold on until they have sealed the servants of God upon their foreheads, and those so sealed numbered 144,000. These have the name of their Father written on their foreheads and there shall be no evil that will befall them. Since the foundation of the world, this is the first time that the world, the demons have been puzzled with calculations. Because the whole world does not know the source of the power in Brotherhood.
People ask what is this Brotherhood all about? They ask you to tell the truth of the secret Power in Brotherhood and your answer is always “I do not know”. Hardly they believe you, they continue investigating and even checking your movements, all to no avail.
But it is that Name on your foreheads that is worrying them. Because even death flees at seeing that name on your foreheads. There is no other name in the world today than this wonderful name. Today if you write this name ‘Brotherhood’ on your doorpost, your co-tenants will not be happy to see it. It is written that the name of His God, the name of the city and his new name will be written on your foreheads. That is why if you call Him Jehovah He does not hear you, because this is not His new Name. It is also written that he who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple and never shall he go out of it.
What will you conquer in order to be made a pillar? You must conquer fear, gossiping, slandering, temptations, and loose conduct. Yes anyone that conquers these things will receive the insignia of the New Jerusalem on him. The very name that is inscribed on His garment is what he writes on your foreheads if you conquer. What do you think of it brethren, that He writes on your foreheads the exact Name that He is known by! What a wonderful privilege.
Go and tell all those now fighting to be called Jesus or Christ, angry people, men of strife and bitterness, tell them that the former things have passed away and now all things have been made new.

Today many people are even surprised to hear the name Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. They say that they have heard of so many names of churches, but not Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Since you were born have you yourselves heard of such a name, either in this world or in a dream? This is an example of what I have been telling you.
Today people nursed animosity against this name, Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. If you visit people and say that you are from the Duke Town Church, or Church of Christ or any other Church, you will be welcomed. But if you say that you are from Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, you will be given the cold shoulder and asked to go away from their midst. Even voodoo priests will be welcomed for they say that they are saving lives. Members of other societies will be encouraged but not those of Brotherhood: this they say is too bad to belong. They term it a Society of Beelzebub. Today, no one says he is going to a church but Bethel. They talk about building new Bethels and they only understand this language. Yes, God does not teach you, you will not learn, you will never, never understand, no matter how old you are in this world
The new city spoken about symbolises you yourselves. The New Jerusalem spoken about also refers to you. And His name mentioned therein is the Word of God. It is said that never shall they go out of it. Mention any church in the whole world where its members sleep in it always. But not so in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. This is the house of our God where all those who come in will not go out of it. May we listen to the golden text.

GOLDEN TEXT: Rev. 3:12
“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem which cometh down out of heaven, from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.”
Do you hear what this portion of the Scripture says? Yes, they shall never go out of it. If you are a Brotherhood member, you prefer to sleep on the bare floor in the Bethel than on your beds at home. That is why people say there is something in that place, for they cannot understand why you prefer to sleep on ordinary floor always. They also accuse the Leader of giving you something that makes you to forget your parents and relatives. This is false. But brethren, do you listen to this statement! “He that conquers, I will make a pillar in the temples of my God: NEVER SHALL HE GO OUT OF IT”. That is the point.
Your raiment is another conquest for you because people are surprised to see you in this wonderful garment of glory. Mention any Church where you see lawyers, doctors, people of high position in life going to sleep on the floor like we have in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In fact many of the decorated Cathedrals are kept empty for the demons to dwell while the members are driven home after a limited time of meetings.

PUT ON THE NEW PERSONALITY
You are welcomed to any Bethel of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Bethel is a city, a place of refuge. It is a Hebrew word. Therefore, brethren, do not be surprised at anything that you see here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. The former things have passed away and all things are made new. Do not come here with your former way of doing things, which you learned when you were in other churches because it will not fit in this new system of things. Rather, put on the new personality, which was created according to God’s, will in true righteousness and loyalty.
The name of God is Love. The new Jerusalem is Love. And the City of God Love. That means every one must manifest Love. Love alone rules. Christ said, I and the Father are One. Yes, they are One in Love. Love alone remains. There is no room for anger, wrath, bitterness, falsehood, idolatry, or any unfruitful work that belongs to darkness, but to remain in Love. Let every one of us know that the former things, have passed away, and all things have become new.
Remember what happened to the Israelites because of their stubbornness. They sinned against their God by desiring injurious things and practised fornication only to die, twenty three thousands of them in one day. Neither let us put God to test, as some of them put Him to the test, only to perish by the serpents. Neither be murmurers, just as some of them murmured, only to perish by the destroyer. The same thing happened to those who did not obey what Christ taught. They were cursed. You remember how he drove those money changers from the temple. They acted contrary to His Father’s will. But now all these actions have passed away, because you have been transformed into the Kingdom of God and His Christ.

This is a time of joy. There is no more division nor hatred; do not say “This is my own, or we started this or that Bethel, you are a stranger but I am a citizen”. No! All glory belongs to God and He owns everything and does everything by Himself. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Accordingly as God’s chosen ones; clothe yourselves with love, for it is a perfect bond of union. Do not remember the former things again, forget the things behind and stretch forward to the things ahead, which are all made new.

Brethren, let us not go further. Let those who have ears to hear, let them hear. May God bless his Holy Word. A-MEN.

THE NEW ORDER

FIRST LESSON:2 CORINTHIANS 3: 17-18
Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

SECOND LESSON: HEBREW 2: 8
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREW 9: 27-28
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

THE HOLY SPIRIT BROUGHT PEACE AND LOVE

Beloved, this Gospel is a familiar topic. It is about the peace and joy brought to mankind. Wherever the Holy Spirit is, there must be peace, joy, happiness, hope, togetherness and light. Beloved, the Holy Spirit is very unique. He does not like problems, fighting or quarrelling. He is always kind, gentle, peaceful and loving. What the Holy Spirit has brought to mankind is love and joy. This accounts for My familiar slogan; “My peace I give unto you.”

IT IS ONLY PEACE AND JOY THAT I CAME TO GIVE MANKIND. LET THIS PEACE AND LOVE REIGN OVER YOU. Do not fight or quarrel anymore. Do not seek the mundane things of this world. Seek peace and joy. Your position and religious affiliation are secondary. The primary concern of the Holy Spirit is your joy and peace. The will of the Holy Spirit is that you live in peace and harmony with your brethren.

There is an adage, which has that; “the tune of a bird is sweet only when it has not been caught by a bullet.” You are going round making noise and bragging of your wealth forgetting that the end has come. This is not the time that you should be blowing trumpet about your wealth. The fact you tend not to be aware of is that materialism is soon passing for vanity. My appeal to you is to change for good because the judgement day is at hand. Do away with the old leaven, and put on the new ones:, which is love, peace and joy.

WHAT GOD NEEDS

God does not need your money. The only thing He needs from you is love and peace.

It is likely that you do not know that love is the greatest before God. Beloved, the kingdom of God is not eating and merry-making. It is love, peace and joy.

Read the first lesson again.

FIRST LESSON: 2 CORITHIANS 3: 17-18

” Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”

When you are endowed with all the material benefit of this world, but lack peace, what shall it benefit you? Beloved, there are two significant things awaiting everybody in this life. One is everlasting life, and the other is everlasting torment. What shall it benefit you if you own the entire world, but at last you see yourself in everlasting hell fire? And what shall it not benefit you if you suffer tribulation, but at last see yourself rejoicing in everlasting life? This is not a case of “Father give me motor car, wife, husband and food, etc.” This is the issue of love and peace. It is about living in peace with one another.

What I have brought to My beloved children is love, peace and joy. That is why I always say; “My peace I give unto you.”

What the Holy Spirit uses in conquering all the battles are love and peace. He does not struggle for anything. Love and peace do not entail struggling. All the things you are doing here; the singing and dancing are not important. What is needed here is only love, peace and joy.

THE INSEPARABLE VARIABLES

Christ had already told us that God is spirit, love and peace. It has been emphasised that those worshipping God should worship Him in spirit and in truth. The fact remains that there was a spirit in existence when Heaven and Earth were made. God cannot be seen in any other perspective besides the fact that He is a spirit. John the divine confirms that God is love. The Holy Spirit at this last dispensation has affirmed that God is peace. These testimonies inform our greetings to one another: “PEACE”, in Brotherhood. Beloved, wherever there is God, there is peace. Whosoever has God has peace. Whosoever has peace has the Kingdom of God.

If the peace of God is not in you, you are bound to suffer, but when you have the peace of God, all your life is love, peace, joy, relaxation and comfort of the mind at every point in time. Beloved, the kingdom of God is peace. Money, car, house, shoes, clothes, wife or husband, etc, are not considered in the kingdom of God. The children of God have no time for them. What the children of God are after is this peace, love, truth and joy and the kingdom of God.

Therefore, if you are not identified with all those things, where is your place in the kingdom of God? You cannot purchase them in the market. Rather, it is within you. Beloved, since we have been waiting for the kingdom of God, which has come down for the children of God, let us now live a peaceful life with one another. LET US BE TRUTHFUL AND TRUST-WORTHY. LET US LIVE A BLAMELESS LIFE BEFORE GOD.

THE NATURE OF GOD

What has eluded man is the realisation of the fact that man is a replica of God, and if God is love and peace, man should equally be an embodiment of love and peace. God is made up of love and peace, and once you recognise Him, you have no problems in life. Once you feel His impact, you are in everlasting joy. God is visible and invisible. Man is a manifestation of God. Therefore, when you say you are not worshipping man, how will you be able to see God? He has come down to dwell with man.

Everything is aware of His presence. The trees, the birds, the leaves, the fishes, the angels, etc, are aware of His presence and they are glorifying Him.

This is the time it has pleased the Father to manifest His glory, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. God is love, peace, hope, joy, truth, meekness and all the virtues. If you are lacking in these qualities, then you are very far from the kingdom of God. Wherever there is God there is righteousness. What you do here sometimes demonstrate your ignorance of the presence of God in our midst.

In His physical form, none of you can stand before God. He is too wonderful therefore you cannot understand Him. What you are talking about here and there, that God is this or that, you are passing comments on what you do not know. None of you have seen Him. God is love. Whosoever has seen God must be loving and peaceful.

Read the second lesson again:

SECOND LESSON HEBREW 2: 8

“Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.”

GOD AND MAN

Everything in heaven and on earth is under the control of man. This saying that you will not worship man is rather surprising. Can a tree provide for your needs? God is in the form of a human being, and as such, human beings are love and peace. Christ said; “Let my peace be unto you”. Therefore, when you say that you are not going to worship man; you are not in this life. Everything around you is from either human or is sustain from man.

If you look at God as being physically significantly different from man, then you have not come to self-realisation. And if you are still naïve in the ways of God, you are far away from the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is peace and love. Beloved, God has no other shape or form. God is physically like man. The other aspect of God is that God is love and peace. If you have not been regarding man, you have made a great mistake.

Therefore, from today that you have begotten this knowledge, live in peace with your brethren and love everybody as yourself. Be calm and patient with everybody, do not speak evil words against somebody. When you cannot do all these things, you are driving away the Holy Spirit in you.

If you have something, give it to your brother, do not be stingy. When you have something, and do not share it with your brother, the spirit of God in you will worry you.

EVERYBODY IS YOUR BROTHER. MOSLEMS AND CHRISTIANS WHO CLAIM TO WORSHIP GOD HAVE NOT ALLOWED PEACE TO REIGN IN THE WORLD. The Moslems are complaining of how Christians are fighting against them. The Christians are complaining the same. How many of them are keeping the injunctions of God? Beloved, what God needs from you is peace. He does not need your money, food, cloth, car, etc. The universal slogan should be, “live and let live”.

Jehovah God with His Christ has come. All those who have been waiting patiently for His coming must continue to abide in peace, love and joy, because the time for the manifestation of His glory is nigh. Let it not take you unaware. The Children of God have no business with the mundane things of this world. Theirs is love, peace and joy.

God is here on earth therefore there is no need for you to go to the moon, sun, sea, valley and mountain, in search of Him. What is left for you is living in peace, love and happiness with all the creations of God. Beloved, peace has come to dwell with man. His impact is being felt throughout the universe. His magnetic field has overshadowed the whole of Calabar. It is the work of God that the Efut and Quas can sit together and eat from the same table. If you survey the history of the existence of these two groups, you will see that they have always been incompatible. By the special grace of God, these groups have come to a consensus to jointly do that, which will bring lasting peace and joy to them. It is wonderful.

OUR MANDATE

A city divided against itself cannot stand. United we stand divided we fall. Hence, you are mandated to go and make the whole world to be one. Sometimes, your prayers are not answered because you are not united in love. While you would be praying for a car, your brother would be praying for just enough food to keep him alive. How can it be possible for your request to be granted when your requests are at variance? Sometimes, your request would contradict another request.

While your brother is praying for long life, you are begging God to kill him. God is a loving God. He cannot rob Peter to pay Paul. God is the God of Justice. Very soon, the Father will open your eyes so that you can see the beautiful essence of loving everybody. The spirit of God can so come into you that you become a changed man. When this happens, you will almost remain silent to everything that happens around you. Let us come together as one. Let us share everything in common, so that we will be able to receive the glory that was destined for us before the foundations of the world were laid. God has nothing to do with division and segregation.

God does not want any of His creations to perish. That was why when Christ fed five thousand people with two fishes and five loaves, He told His disciples to gather the remnants. That happened to show that God cares for His people. There is one God; one Spirit; one Body; one Soul; one Man and one Woman. God has come to unite them into one fold. The Christians do not believe that God has come. They would readily frown at God marrying and having children. To this group, God will only come down from the sky, and if He does not, then He is not God. That is the extent to, which the Christians’ limited understanding of God can take them. When it comes to the ways of God, these people are myopic if not completely blind. What they are looking forward to will never happen.

THE MOSLEMS KNOW

The Moslems are even more sensible, because they are aware of the coming of the Holy Spirit. They believe in Christ even more than the self-acclaimed Christians. The Moslems believe that when God will come, He will marry and have children. They also believe that when God comes He will gather everybody into one fold. Hence, I told you that I have other sheep outside who are not in this sheep fold, I will bring them, when they come, they will hear my voice, and they will become one flock under one shepherd. Go into the vineyard and seek those who are still outside. Beloved, all of us are one in Our Lord Jesus Christ. There is no need for division, fighting and quarrelling among the Children of God. Give peace a chance.

Everything is Brotherhood. The fish, the ants, the birds, the millipedes, the centipedes, the toads, the frogs, the antelopes, the cows, the goats, the cats, the dogs and all other things you can think of are Brotherhood. For this reason, do not kill or harm them. God is going to bring everything together. He has come to unite the world. The sick, the dead; the living; the less-privileged, the down-trodden, the poor, the one-legged; the white, the black, the short, the tall, and any other thing you can think of are of great concern to Our God.

He has them on His mind; and to protect and provide for them is His pre-occupation. At the end, He will make all to be one fold under one shepherd. Brotherhood is not a church. It is the kingdom of God and His Christ established on Earth. The teachings received in Brotherhood are celestial. It has nothing to do with the mundane and carnal teachings of the world. The principles under, which we operate are love, peace and joy.

OUR ASSIGNMENT

Beloved, what Christ had told His disciples is what I am telling you now. You should go and make the entire world to be one by telling everybody to live in peace. Propagate peaceful co-existence by telling them about this great light that is shinning in the world. Teach them morals by showing them the examples. Show them these examples by stopping fornication. Live a righteous life so that they may see the light of God in you. God has come to take those who have been waiting for Him. Continue to live in peace with your brethren. Share everything with your brethren. Do not cause division. Remember that a tree cannot make a forest. You cannot clap one hand.

Africa, America, Europe, Asia, and the entire world, is one. The whites are claiming that they are developed. What is development? Where can development take them? What has development got to do with love, peace and unity? Since they claimed to be developed, have they found peace in their lives? There is nowhere one can find peace except in Brotherhood. Hence, when you say “Peace” to a none baptised Brotherhood, he or she will retort, “peace to your mother”. This happens because he / she has no peace.

Beloved, go and spread this good tidings to all nooks and crannies of the world. Do not say that someone is not a Brotherhood. Everybody is Brotherhood. Call a spade a spade. THERE IS NO OTHER DUTY FOR YOU THAN THIS WORK OF PEACE. FORGET ABOUT THE ISSUE OF BEING A MOSLEM OR CHRISTIAN. FORGET ABOUT THE ISSUE OF BEING BORN-AGAIN AND NOT BEING BORN AGAIN. THE ENTIRE WORLD IS ONE.

THE SAVING FACTOR

The death of Christ has brought peace into the entire world. Therefore, do not manufacture problems for yourself. Forget about the issue of money. Forget about the issue of being top ranking in the society. There is no peace in these things. You may be endowed with all the mundane things of this world, but if you have no peace, it profits you nothing. Sell all your belongings and follow God.

Read the Golden Text again:

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREW 9: 27 –28

“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”

HIS SECOND COMING

Beloved, we have been told that, Christ has died and resurrected. He will come again; and when He comes He will not die again, rather, He will come and take unto Himself those who are practising His injunctions. He is not coming to die again. He is not coming to have any connection with the sinful people. He is coming to take unto Himself those who are living in peace, love and joy with one another. He is already here on earth. Hence, you are told to, “Be prepared, for the day of the Lord cometh like a thief in the night”. Beloved, you are not supposed to wait for somebody to come and tell you to get prepared. For you are all aware of the presence of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit has come to unite His chosen children who have been waiting patiently for Him. He did not deceive, and will never deceive. THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS COME TO SAVE THE ENTIRE WORLD. THEREFORE, IF YOU PERISH, YOUR BLOOD WILL BE UPON YOU. I have explained everything to you. Everybody is aware of this truth. The Moslems, the Christians, Rosicrucians, Eckists and others are aware of the presence of the Holy Spirit personified. All the principalities are under His rulership. This is the right time foreverybody to forsake the world and follow Christ.

There is no gain in saying; “I am a Moslem or I am a Christian”. There is no gain in saying; “I am a juju priest, for this reason I am not a Brotherhood”. Everybody is Brotherhood. The Moslems have started coming here in great numbers. Some of them are finding one way or the other to spread this good tiding to the entire Moslem world. That is why when you go to the Everlasting Gospel Centre, you will see some of them trying to translate the Father’s Gospel into Arabic, Fulani and Hausa languages.

It is a thing of joy to all the inhabitants of the world. He has come, and has already started selecting His elects. Therefore, it is not a thing of; “I belong to this or that church”. He has come to unite every creation of God. Do away with all evil tendencies. Beloved, since we have been waiting to see His glory, we have to be perfect in all ramifications. That is the message I have for you.

I shall not be tedious with you. A stroke of cane is enough for the wise, let those who have ears, hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the entire world. May the Lord bless His Holy Teachings. Amen.

Thank You Good Father.
