SALVATION THROUGH BELIEF AND BAPTISM THE REJECTED MESSIAH LOVE IS THE HIDDEN POWER IN BCS BIBLE CLASS LESSONS BY: LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER, AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR

BIBLE WITNESS: LUKE 2:25-26 And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and this man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was upon him. And it had been revealed unto him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord`s Christ.

SALVATION THROUGH BELIEF AND BAPTISM

First Bible Lesson:

John 3:3-5 "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 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."

Second Bible Lesson:

Mark 16:16-18 "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."
Golden Text:

Matthew 3:15-17 "And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were

opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

Brethren, I have no new instruction to give to you. You need not be told where to look. It is said, "Wherever your treasure is, there will your heart be also." (Matt 6:21). WE HAVE NOT COME HERE TO DANCE, SING OR EAT. IT IS THE WORD OF GOD THAT HAS BROUGHT US HERE. Our Lord Jesus Christ attested that, "It is the Spirit who quickens, the flesh is of no avail. The Words that I have spoken to you, they are Spirit and they are life."(John 6:63)

THE BREAD WHICH CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN, WHICH YOU HEAR OF, REFERS TO THE WORD OF GOD.(JOHN 6:41) OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE WORD OF GOD. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE WORD OF
That is why, when Philip said, "Show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied," He answered and said, "Have I been so long time with you and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father. I am in the Father and the Father is in me. The Words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works." (John 14:9-10). ALL THE INHABITANTS OF THE WORLD SHOULD NOW KNOW THAT GOD IS THE WORD. WHENEVER YOU COME HERE NO MATTER YOUR CONDITION OR DISPOSITION IN LIFE JUST FOCUS ON THE WORD OF GOD. ARE YOU SICK?

GOD. GOD HIMSELF IS THE WORD.

ARE YOU BLIND? DO YOU HAVE A CASE IN THE COURT? DO YOU HAVE ANY ONE SICK AT HOME? ARE YOU POOR AND WANTING IN ANYTHING? ARE YOU AFFLICTED? HAVE YOU TRIALS AND TEMPTATIONS? ARE YOU JOBLESS? THEN FIX YOUR GAZE HERE AND FOCUS ALL YOUR ATTENTION AND BELIEVE FERVENTLY IN THE WORD OF GOD, AND ALL YOUR PROBLEMS AND DIFFICULTIES ARE SOLVED. This morning I shall not be tedious unto you. What you have heard is what I am going to expatiate to you. ALL THAT YOU HAVE HEARD ARE THE STATEMENTS FROM THE MOUTH OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. HE HIMSELF IS GOD AND ALL THE WORDS SPOKEN BY HIM ARE NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. Nicodemus heard Him, he believed in Him and so he went to Our Lord Jesus Christ stealthily in the night. Have you heard what our Lord Jesus Christ said to him? Nicodemus was a very important personality. He was among those of his days who claimed to know God. But Our Lord Jesus Christ told him: "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God." (John 3:3). We are not talking about church denomination. We are not talking about the children of God. We are not talking about a tutorial house. We are not talking about prayer houses and healing homes. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE KINGDOM OF GOD. Forget about whether you are a necromancer, or a member of a secret society, a member of any church denomination. Forget about whatever is your status in life. Have you heard the message today? Jesus the Christ says that except you are born again you cannot enter into this Kingdom, neither can you see it. Many of you claim that

you are communicants or elders in the church. There is no doubt about that, but Our Lord Jesus Christ says that unless you are born again, you cannot enter into the Kingdom of God neither can you see it. It is necessary that we should sit down and cogitate on what will be our profit to be members of the various church denominations and yet at the end, we neither see the Kingdom of God nor enter into it.

WHY WE REFER TO OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST AS THE CHRIST IS THAT HE IS THE ONLY TEACHER WE HAVE TODAY, YESTERDAY, AND FOREVER. ONE WHO IS CALLED A TEACHER, IS A PERSON, WHO DOES NOT ONLY SPEAK BUT HAS TO PRACTICE WHAT HE SAYS.
He said to Nicodemus except you be born again you cannot see the Kingdom of God and you cannot enter the Kingdom of God. What is it to be born again? If you search the scriptures you will discover that to be born again does not imply that you should go back into the womb of your mother the second time and be born again. I now want to tell you what separates you from the Holy Spirit. You have a share in the Holy Spirit. I have a share in it. Every person has a share in the Holy Spirit. But if you are not born again, you have denied the Holy Spirit and He is not in you. That has been the cause of the down fall of the entire world. They argue that the Holy Spirit does not exist again, that Christ has not yet come and that God has not yet come. The truth is that He has come. He did not go anywhere. The Holy Spirit is here. But if you are not born again you cannot see Him, and you cannot enter into the

Kingdom of God. It is said that the Kingdom of God cannot be entered with your wealth. You can only enter it by faith. I want to put it to you again that all who are born of women are shapened in sin and are born in iniquity.(Ps 51:5). Whoever is born of a woman is not pure and unless you are born again of water and of the Spirit, you cannot enter into the Kingdom of God, neither can you see it. Do not continue to be deceived that the power of the Holy Spirit ended on the day of Pentecost. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A TIME

WHEN GOD DID NOT EXIST. HE ABIDES FOREVER.

CHRIST HAS SAID THAT GOD IS A SPIRIT AND THE TRUE WORSHIPPERS MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. (John 4:24). What do you lose when you repent, forsake your sins, get baptized and receive the Holy Spirit. What is your loss? You will see him and dwell in him. And he also dwells in you. And so Brethren, if it were not that difficult, the hen would have urinated. John bore witness to Our Lord Jesus Christ that He was greater than him. And that John the Baptist was not worthy to untie the latchet of our Lord Jesus Christs shoes. Why then did our Lord Jesus Christ have to go to confess his sins and be baptized of John the Baptist? Why did Our Lord Jesus Christ subject himself for baptism if baptism were not efficacious? HAVE YOU HEARD THE WORDS OF GOD? IF YOU DO NOT REPENT OF YOUR SINS, IF YOU ARE NOT BORN AGAIN, IF YOU DO NOT FORSAKE ALL THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD, YOU CANNOT RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT NEITHER CAN YOU KNOW HIM. YOU CANNOT ALSO PUT ON OUR

LORD JESUS CHRIST AS A GARMENT. Baptism by immersion in water is very important. It has great power to accomplish anything. What has separated you from the Holy Spirit is the fact that you have refused to be born again. It does not cost you a kobo. Today, after hearing this gospel, if you believe and confess all your sins and repent, by refraining from preparation of concoction, from fornicating, from malice against any person, from quarrelling and use of abusive language, from drunkenness and thereafter get baptized in water, you will realize that when you come out, you will not need any person to tell you that you are in the Kingdom of God. Even if you erect a magnificent building which is inlaid with gold, and call it the house of God, even if you buy Him an expensive car, it is a waste of time. If you fail to repent of your sins and receive baptism, you cannot see this Kingdom and you have no share in it. If you pack all your money and distribute it to the people along the streets, but you are not born again, you are merely wasting your time. If you do not repent of your theft and fornications and hatred and sorceries and receive baptism, you are wasting your time in whatever else you are doing. You will continue to wait until Jesus comes back again if you do not repent.

HE IS HERE DOING HIS WORK. THE FATHER AS WELL AS THE SON AS WELL AS THE HOLY SPIRIT IS HERE WORKING. HE IS THE ONE DOING THIS WORK AND NOT ANY FLESH AND BLOOD.
If you were to search the Bible, you would have known

what Our Lord Jesus Christ said to His disciples. He says: If you love me you will keep My commandments and I will pray the Father to send you another Comforter, even the Spirit of Truth, which the world cannot see nor receive. (John 14:15-17). But you know Him because He is in you and will abide with you forever. Till doomsday, you will continue to refer to Brotherhood members as demented fellows. When they knock their heads on the ground, you will argue that we are knocking our heads to juju, mermaid, or Beelzebub. That is what you continue to see. But today you have been given a challenge. Accept our Lord Jesus Christ. Repent and confess all your sins. Go and receive water baptism. When you come out of the water and receive the Holy Spirit, see whether you will still refer to them as mental cases. I am not at all surprised by the actions of the world. Our Lord Jesus Christ had said, if they call me Beelzebub, they will also call you Beelzebub. (Matt 10:25). Whoever has the Holy Spirit, who is the doer of the works, has to be called Beelzebub. You will not know what else to call Him; you are afraid of Him and that is why you run from Him.

I HAVE NEVER AT ANY PERSON THAT I AM JESUS, OR THAT I AM PROPHET OR NOTHING WHATSOEVER.

TIME TOLD ANY OR THE CHRIST, AN ELDER. I AM BUT THE ONE

SPIRIT WHO WORKS.

THING I KNOW IS THAT IT IS THE HOLY

Jesus the Christ Himself has said: "I can of my own self do nothing. As I hear I judge and My judgement is right

because I seek not My own will but the Will of Him who sent Me." (John 5:30).

THE FATHER WHOM HE SAYS IS LIVING IN HIM IS NONE OTHER THAN THE HOLY SPIRIT. IF HE HAD REFUSED TO RECEIVE BAPTISM BECAUSE OF HIS POSITION AS THE SON OF GOD, TILL TODAY, HE WOULD NOT HAVE ACCOMPLISHED ANYTHING. HE WOULD HAVE REMAINED LIKE ANY ONE OF US.
He lived for 29 years on earth but no one knew or heard of Him because He did not receive the Holy Spirit. The laid down principle is that whoever is not born of water and of the spirit, can neither enter nor see the Kingdom of God. No doubt, He is God. He is the Son of God. He is the Son of man, but if He was not born of water and Spirit he would have gone empty handed just as you are going away empty. But God will not allow you to continue in your emptiness. God has a reason for inviting you here today. Many of you say you are coming to see Olumba Olumba Obu. Have you not seen my head and two hands that I am a man? I have no power, I do not exist. And when you come here and see me, you say, Is that the person they have been talking about? You will argue that you should be allowed to rest because He is a human being like yourself. You only say this because you have neither been baptized nor been bestowed with the power of the Holy Spirit. Brethren, it does not cost you a kobo to get baptized. Many church denominations do not abide by God's injunction. They take people and immerse them in water but their concoctions are still in the house, they still fornicate, they still retain their position as the head of the Ekpe cult, or the Obon, the mbiam; and they have initiated

themselves into different secret societies. Have they, after all, repented of their sins? Read Matthew 3:5-6. Before any person went to John to receive baptism he had to confess all His sins. If He did not confess all His sins, He would not be baptized. BAPTISM SHOULD NOT BE IMPOSED UPON ANY PERSON AS A MATTER OF COMPULSION. I HAVE ALREADY TOLD YOU THAT WHOEVER IS BORN OF A WOMAN IS SINFUL. YOU ARE NOT PURE AND THE HOLY SPIRIT CANNOT COME TO YOU NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO UNLESS YOU ARE BORN AGAIN OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, THEN WILL THE HOLY SPIRIT TAKE DOMINION OVER YOU. John bore eloquent testimony of Our Lord Jesus Christ. He said: I did not know Him. But He who sent me to baptize said to me that upon whomsoever the Spirit will descend and settle, same is the one who baptizes with fire and the Holy Spirit. (John 1:33). And he bore record that He is the Son of God. Even here in Brotherhood some err. A member will tell you to get baptized so that your sickness may heal or that your case may be struck out. This means that your intention for coming to receive baptism is not as a repentant sinner. YOU HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE A SINNER BEFORE YOU ARE BAPTIZED, BECAUSE THIS IS THE INJUNCTION OF GOD AND THE ONLY CONDITION FOR SALVATION. If you confess your sins and forsake them all right now you are going to see the glory of God. I do not say that you will have to wait till tomorrow. Right now you are going to bear witness to the manifestation of the glory of God. If you are here in this world and you have not known the Holy Spirit neither have you seen this Kingdom of God,

then you cannot accomplish anything. It means you have not been baptized. You have not repented of your sins. That is your problem. FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. (1 Cor 15:50). No person enters it with wealth. It is only by faith that you can enter. What is happening right now in your midst is not an easy thing to know. That is why Nicodemus asked how can an old man be born again? Can he go back into the womb of his mother the second time and be born again? Have you heard the question asked by a wise man? But is there wisdom in that question? Looking at a person like the bishop, elder, pastor, apostle, king, governor, president, or chief, if somebody tells him to get baptized, he will retort that he is a communicant. He will tell you that he himself is a reverend. Have you heard that? Alright, if he lays claim to any of these positions, does he have the Holy Spirit? It is not an easy thing to convince such a dignitary, to be baptized by immersion. Very many people say that they love Brotherhood very much but for the fact that one has to be baptized again. Somebody claims that he himself is a bishop who administers baptism. He has founded a church and so he cannot subject himself to a second baptism because God looks at the heart.

THE ONE FACT THAT ELUDES YOU AND THE ENTIRE WORLD IS THAT YOU FAIL TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS THE REIGN OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. THE HOLY SPIRIT WANTS YOU TO BE HOLY EVEN AS HE IS HOLY, OTHERWISE, HE CANNOT LIVE IN YOU.

YOU WILL HEAR THAT WE IN BROTHERHOOD DO NOT DRINK, WE DO NOT FORNICATE, WE DO NOT INDULGE IN THE PREPARATION OF CONCOCTIONS, WE DO NOT SNUFF, WE DO NOT SMOKE, WE DO NOT MARRY MORE THAN ONE WIFE. WE DO NOT INITIATE INTO THE EKPE, OBON, EKPO OR ANY SECRET CULT. Our first lesson will now be read. First Bible Lesson:

John 3:3-5 "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 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."

Brethren have you heard that? This is no question of church denomination. YOU YOURSELF ARE THE CHURCH. EVERYONE OF US IS A CHURCH BUT WHATEVER CHURCH THAT DOES NOT REPENT AND BE BAPTIZED, CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD. You are true witnesses to the fact that as faith without work is dead, so the body without the Spirit is dead. (James 2:26). If you have not got the Holy Spirit from where do you have life? You are dead. The Holy Spirit has no other dwelling place but your body. The body was made for Him. Because of this reason, that we are born of women, we are not pure and so if we are not born again, The Holy Spirit cannot dwell in you. And if he does not dwell in you, you have no life and you can do nothing whatsoever. You are just like a dummy. IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHO IS GOD,

THAT DOES EVERYTHING. If you argue that you cannot be born again, the Holy Spirit cannot come to you. No church will save you. Prayers will not save you. The government will not save you. Your town or village will not save you. Juju or mermaid will not save you, except when you are born again and the Holy Spirit comes in and starts His work. THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN EXISTENCE. HE IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD WHO CREATED HEAVEN AND EARTH. WHEN THE WORLD WAS VOID AND WITHOUT FORM, THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS IN EXISTENCE. ALL THINGS WERE MADE THROUGH HIM. THE EARTH WAS MADE BY HIM. THE SUN, MOON AND STARS, ALL CREEPING AND FLYING CREATURES, THE ANIMALS AND THE VEGETATION WERE ALL MADE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. ADAM ALONE WAS MADE FROM THE DUST AND SO HE WAS NOT BORN OF A WOMAN. AND SO THE FATHER BREATHED THE HOLY SPIRIT INTO HIM. BUT THE HOLY SPIRIT LEFT HIM AND DEPARTED FROM THE ENTIRE WORLD WHEN HE DISOBEYED GOD. Right from Cain through Enoch, Noah, Lot, Abraham and the rest of them, no person was holy. And none of them knew that he ought to be born again before he could enter into the Kingdom of God. And none of them saw the Kingdom of God, because they did not know that the Holy Spirit was in existence. Moses did not know, Isaiah did not know. Cain did not know. That is why we are full of evil thoughts, words and deeds. We continue to kill and fornicate and tell lies and hate one another. But when the time was ripe FOR GOD TO COME TO THE WORLD, He sent out John as his forerunner to baptize people with water, for repentance. This is because once you

are washed at baptism after confessing your sins, you will be purged and that is when the Holy Spirit can dwell inside you. Most of the disciples of Our Lord Jesus Christ were first the disciples of John the Baptist and they were already baptized by John. If they were not baptized by John, they would not have identified or taken cognizance of our Lord Jesus Christ. They would have regarded him as you still regard Him today. DURING THE ADVENT OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, NO OTHER PERSON WAS BESTOWED WITH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. HE HAD NOT YET SHED HIS BLOOD TO REDEEM MANKIND. Peter and the rest of the disciples were following him sheepishly without knowing who He was. They did not understand what He preached to them. THE BAPTISM OF JOHN WAS FOR REPENTANCE FROM SINS BUT THE BAPTISM OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS FOR THE FORGIVENESS AND REMISSION OF SINS AND IT IS THE JUDGEMENT. And unless your sins are remitted, you cannot see the kingdom of God. If you did pride yourself on the acquisition of degrees in theology from universities in United Kingdom and United States of America, be sure that this will not save you. Go and get baptized. Do not even come to Brotherhood, you can go to America or any other place and get baptized, and then will you see the manifestation of the glory of God in you. This generation is the luckiest, because during the advent of Our Lord Jesus Christ no person received the Holy Spirit. This explains why He said, it is expedient that I go away. Because if I do not go away the Comforter will not come, but when I go, He will come. (John 16:7). You, argumentator, number one doubter, go and

experiment on this word of God. Go and get baptized, and you will see the glory of God shining in you. YOU WILL REALIZE THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS HERE, THE FATHER IS HERE, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS HERE AND HE KNOWS EVERYTHING AND IS THE DOER OF ALL THINGS. Right now many members of the Amorc who had reached the highest hierarchical temple, are all coming in here, and before they are baptized, they have to forsake all diabolical things. If you are a member of the Ogboni society or whatever secret society you have initiated yourself in, you have to denounce them and bundle all your books away and become truly repentant. Receive baptism before the Holy Spirit descends on you. THE MOMENT THE HOLY SPIRIT

COMES IN, HE SUPPLIES ALL YOUR HEART'S DESIRES. HE IS POWER, HE IS WISDOM, HE IS LIFE, HE IS FOOD, HE IS YOUR CLOTHES. EVERYTHING WILL BE SUPPLIED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. Brotherhood
does not go to the hospital for treatment. We do not go to the sorcerer, we do not light candles. The moment we say "Let" all our problems are solved. If you see any person going to the hospital, he is an unbeliever. He is not a real Brotherhood. Do not even pray again, do not sing because the Holy Spirit has taken dominion over you. There is no problem for anyone. No person can harm you. There is no juju or concoctions. It is not a matter of developing oneself. The moment you believe and you are baptized, the Holy Spirit will enter into you and every work is completed. EVEN AS I AM TELLING YOU THIS, I HAVE NO POWER OF MYSELF. I DO NOT EXIST. I AM NOT THE PERSON DOING THIS

WORK.

ALL THAT YOU SEE IS DONE BY THE HOLY

SPIRIT.
As we are packed full in this hall, if you go to the mainland part of the state you will find people gathering in great numbers. Go to America, India, Britain, and all over the world it is

I CANNOT PREACH OR PRAY. I CANNOT DO ANYTHING BUT SINCE THIS IS THE ERA OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, HE HIMSELF DOES ALL THE WORK. IF I TELL YOU THAT I AM THE PERSON DOING THIS WORK, I WILL THEN BE TELLING A LIE. IF I TELL YOU THAT IT IS NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT IS DOING THE WORK, I WILL BE DECEIVING YOU. BUT HE IS THE PERSON WHO IS DOING ALL THE WORKS. CHRIST HAS SAID THAT WHEN THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH COMES, HE WILL LEAD YOU TO THE WISDOM OF TRUTH. (JOHN 16:13). NOW THAT THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH IS HERE, HE IS DOING EVERYTHING.
You have heard of Napoleon, DeLawrence and others who have been members of different secret societies. You have known of the so-called strong men but have you seen a person who can appear in two different places simultaneously? What do you think of such a person? Our Lord Jesus Christ has said that whoever speaks evil against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, will not be forgiven neither in this world nor in the world to come. (Matt

the same that you will see.

12:32). And that has been your problem. THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS COME TO REDEEM THE WHOLE WORLD FROM TRIBULATION AND AFFLICTION AND FROM FOOLISHNESS. HE HAS COME TO GATHER TOGETHER THE WHOLE WORLD AND MOULD THEM IN ORDER TO ABIDE WITH THEM FOREVER. What then is your trouble? Without Him you cannot pray. You cannot see, you cannot hear, you cannot live, you are nothing whatsoever, you have no power, no love, you cannot speak the truth, and you cannot do any good thing. I KNOW THAT THE ENTIRE WORLD IS SEEKING AFTER THE HOLY SPIRIT BUT YOU ARGUE HE HAS NOT YET COME. I AM TELLING YOU THAT HE IS ALREADY HERE. HE HAS BEEN HERE AND TILL ETERNITY, HE WILL CONTINUE TO DWELL HERE. But the condition is that you should receive baptism, repent of all your sins, and He will protect you. He will protect your house, your thoughts and everything about you. If you fall inside the fire, it will not hurt you. If you fall into the river, you will not drown. There is nothing that can harm you. You have tried to refrain from drinking, snuffing, smoking, and fornicating but you have not succeeded. Repent today of your sins and get baptized. You have the greatest opportunity in your life now. You can prove Olumba Olumba Obu once and for all. Confess your sins and receive baptism and all those bad habits will be eradicated from you. Try it now. If you like you can call me Mr.Obu. If you like you can call me Beelzebub, or any other name. One thing I know is that the Holy Spirit is now operating. If you believe and are

baptized, you are saved in the same way. But if you refuse you are doomed. I AM NOT THE PERSON SAYING THIS. THE LORD JESUS, THE CHRIST, IS THE PERSON WHO SAYS IT. Read our second lesson and you will realize it. It is the same Bible you use. Pick the one in your home and confirm it. AND LET ME TELL YOU THAT THE NAME OF GOD IS NEITHER JESUS NOR JEHOVAH NOR LORD. HE IS SPIRIT. I HAVE NOT COME FOR NIGERIA ONLY. I HAVE NOT COME FOR AFRICA ONLY. I HAVE NOT COME FOR THE WHITES ONLY. I AM UNIVERSAL. I HAVE COME FOR BOTH ANGELS AND MEN AND SPIRITS TO LEAD YOU TO THE WISDOM OF TRUTH. When a boy kills an animal in the bush the animal belongs to him and when he takes it home, it does not belong to him again, but to his father. In the same way the moment you are baptized and bestowed with the Holy Spirit, you no more own yourself. The Holy Spirit uses you the way He pleases in His services throughout the whole world. You have no wisdom again. You have no eyes, you have no ears, you have no hands or even life again. He is all in all. People will be seeing you here and there. It is not you they are seeing per se but the Holy Spirit.

HE PUTS YOU ON AS GARMENT AND GOES ABOUT HIS WORK. The second lesson will now be read.
Second Bible Lesson:

Mark 16:16-18 "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new

Brethren, can you now realize the great Beelzebub that is in Brotherhood? You say that there is power in Brotherhood but that no person knows the source of that power. Today have you not been told the source of the power? "Thomas" go and get baptized today. And as from this day, you will pick up serpents. If you drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt you. You will lay hands on the sick and they will recover. I am not talking of tomorrow. Right now if you receive baptism, pray for any sick person and he will tell you that he has become well. After baptism you receive any number of gifts - the gift of vision, the gift of dreams, extracting of charms, the gift of faith, midwifery, and many others, just when you are coming out of the water. These gifts are poured on you and you become a new personality. You have a new freedom. I know that this has been your problem. How can you acquire one of these gifts? And so I have administered injection to you right now. Your problem is that you do not believe that the power that is in Brotherhood comes from God. Where then does this power come from if it is not from God? The taste of the pudding is in the eating. If different dishes are spread before you now you cannot tell which is delicious, until you taste it. And so do not ask questions, do not doubt in your heart. When you leave this hall, call someone and confess all your sins to him, and forsake your sins. Prove this as a theorem. Even if it is a little child who

tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."

puts you three times in water, when you come out, these signs will follow you, and your eyes will be opened. You will speak with new tongues and you will see the glory of this Kingdom. These signs have to follow all those who have been baptized. You will drink any deadly poison and it turns to be nourishment to your body. You will pick up serpents and they will not bite you. You will cast out demons. You will heal the sick. It is the same both to the young and the old. God has no tendency for partiality. The whole world has a share in it. You have only heard as stories that Our Lord Jesus Christ made the blind to see, the lame to walk; but you have not seen this with your eyes. Right now can you see any candle or inscriptions here? All those who came with heart troubles, or waist pains, whatever affliction they came here with, have been relieved and they are going with testimonies. Christ had said that all men shall hate you for my name sake.(Matt 24:9). IT IS SAID THAT MANY FALSE PROPHETS SHALL RISE AND WILL LEAD MANY ASTRAY, AND SINCE INIQUITIES SHALL ABOUND, THE LOVE OF MANY SHALL WAX COLD. But whoever endures to the end, the same shall be saved. (Matt 24:11-13).

LOOK AT BROTHERHOOD: WE DO NOT CLAP HANDS. WE DO NOT USE ORCHESTRA. WE DO NOT ADMINISTER ANY MEDICATIONS. WE DO NOT BELIEVE IN ANY OTHER THING BECAUSE IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO DOES THE WORK.
The doctors we have here are more numerous than the doctors we have outside. Even the medical doctors outside are our clients. They come in here for their problems to be solved. The sickness they cannot cure themselves, they

bring here, and all these ailments are cured . But when I tell them to write a testimony, they will tell me to wait. Many members of the Amorc, and all other secret societies, necromancers and juju doctors, have their help and salvation here. The moment I tell them to write a testimony, they will say I should wait because if they write a testimony, all their customers will run from them. The Reverend of your church comes here to obtain solution for his problems. When I tell them to switch over, they say that there is "food" on the other side. If you refer to Brotherhood as ghost or apparition, why do ghosts themselves come here and receive salvation? If you say it is witchery, why do all witches and wizards come here to be saved? If you say it is juju or diabology, why do they all come here to be subdued? Why do you not call a spade by its name. Why do you say it is a garden spoon. BRETHREN, THE POWER OF GOD IS UNLIMITED. HE DID NOT SAY UNTIL A PARTICULAR PERSON COMES, NEITHER DID HE SPECIFY THE TIME. HE SAYS TODAY, IF YOU ARE BAPTIZED, YOU ARE SAVED. ALL YOUR PROBLEMS AND DIFFICULTIES ARE THEN TAKEN AWAY. AND THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION FOR YOU. That is the power that is in Brotherhood. Many of the patients in psychiatric centers are not mental cases. It is the Holy Spirit that is worrying them. Many of those who are in jail have not committed any offense. It is because of their stubbornness. And there are yet others in the hospital. If you go to the psychiatric hospitals and get all the patients baptized, ninety-nine percent of them will be discharged and will be certified sound. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A CONSUMING FIRE. THE MOMENT IT GETS INSIDE YOU, IT HAS TO CONSUME YOUR

FAITH. IF YOU PRAY OVER SUCH A PERSON AND GET HIM BAPTIZED, HE BECOMES NORMAL AGAIN. The problem we have here is that, very many members do not believe and that is why they run to the hospital with even the slightest headache. They consult oracles and they make sacrifices. But right now, stay in your house, do not even pray. At its own time, that problem which confronts you will disappear. You are not responsible nor is anyone else. It is the Holy Spirit that does it. And this is what he has come to do for the whole world, including you and me. So, stand firm. Someone has resurrected after four days, and another after two days. The blind sees and the lame walks. The leper is cleansed. What has the Father not done? No necromancer or medical doctor does this. There is no person who is able to do anything. I myself cannot do it. Only the Holy Spirit does these things. FROM THE DAY YOU ARE BAPTIZED AND YOU ARE CLOTHED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT, NO PERSON CAN DO ANY EVIL THING TO YOU. BY MERELY SINGING A SONG AS YOU PASS ALONG A STREET, ALL THE ELEMENTARY SPIRITS ARE RENDERED INEFFECTIVE. THEREFORE, DO NOT SAY THAT THIS IS DONE BY OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU. GOD HIMSELF SAYS THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES AND IS BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED. HIS WORD IS FOR ALL AGES SACROSANCT. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WORKING THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. When He enters into you, you will be called a demented fellow. It will be referred to as ghost. If you go to the juju doctor and medicine men, such actions will not improve the situation. It only calls for baptism. When you get baptized, you will become calm again.

THERE IS NOTHING ELSE THAT RULES ANY MORE. THE HOLY SPIRIT REIGNS FOREVER AND EVER. CONCOCTIONS HAVE NO
POWER. GHOST DOES NOT REIGN, MERMAID, JUJU OR MAN DOES NOT REIGN.

IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT HAS THE DOMINION OVER EVERYTHING. YOU MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU CALL ME LEADER. I AM NOT A LEADER TO ANY PERSON. IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO LEADS.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said: "Do not think that I have come to abrogate the law and the prophets; I have come to confirm them." (Matt 5:17). Heaven and earth shall pass away but not a jot of the law will pass away until all are fulfilled. (Matt 5:18). Whoever breaks the least of these commandments and teacheth men to do likewise, shall be called the least in the Kingdom of God. But whoever keeps them and teaches men also to keep them, he shall be called the greatest in the Kingdom of God (Matt 5:19). This is exactly what obtains here. WE DO NOT ADD ANYTHING TO THE WORD PROCEEDING OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD. IT IS NOT "JESUS" WHO IS SAYING THESE WORDS. IT IS GOD WHO IS SPEAKING. HE HIMSELF HAS TOLD YOU THAT HE DOES NOT SPEAK OF HIMSELF. HE WAS MERELY THE MOUTHPIECE OF GOD. THE FATHER PASSES THROUGH HIM TO SPEAK THESE WORDS. AND WHAT GOD SAYS IS WHAT WE PRACTICE HERE EVERYDAY.

IF YOU LOOK AT OUR MEMORANDUM, IT IS "LOVE ONE ANOTHER" ALONE, AND WE FOLLOW THE FOOTPRINTS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST

WITHOUT ADDING OR SUBTRACTING FROM IT.

HOWEVER, SATAN SAYS THAT WE DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS. WE KNOW HIM. HE IS CHRIST; THE ONE ANOINTED BY GOD. HE IS POWER. HE IS WISDOM. HE IS EVERYTHING. CAN YOU SEE HOW GOD HAS DISGRACED SATAN? SATAN ARGUES THAT BROTHERHOOD INDULGES IN DIABOLICAL THINGS. WE DO THIS AND THAT AND SO THEY WARN PEOPLE NOT TO COME HERE. BUT THE BROTHERHOOD PULPIT HAS LAID BARE THE WHOLE TRUTH. WHAT HAS SATAN TO SAY AGAIN? WE PREACH THE WORD OF GOD FROM JANUARY FIRST TO DECEMBER THIRTY-FIRST. EVERYDAY WE WORK TWENTY-FOUR HOURS AND YOU ARE FREE TO COME HERE AND RECEIVE LIFE. IT IS YOUR PLACE AND MINE TO LOOK FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT; BECAUSE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE HIM YOU ARE EMPTY. THIS IS THE JUDGEMENT. WHOEVER BELIEVES AND IS BAPTIZED IS JUSTIFIED. THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION FOR HIM. YOU ARE FREE FOREVER. BUT IF YOU REFUSE WITH THE EXCUSE THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY BEEN BAPTIZED IN YOUR FORMER CHURCH DENOMINATION, YOU ARE DAMNED. I am not condemning any church. They have their relative standards. After Our Lord Jesus Christ had been baptized, his disciples also started to baptize people and so the disciples of John went to John and told him that the person whom he baptized was also baptizing people. JOHN ANSWERED AND SAID TO THEM. I HAVE ALREADY TOLD YOU THAT NO MAN CAN RECEIVE ANYTHING EXCEPT IT BE GIVEN HIM FROM ABOVE. (John 3:27).

I am not against the necromancer. I am not against any person. That is their own level of work. WHAT I AM SAYING IS THAT, THIS IS THE ERA OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. DO NOT ALLOW PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, FORNICATION, MEMBERSHIP IN DIFFERENT SECRET SOCIETIES AND CULTS DEBAR YOU FROM SEEING THIS KINGDOM OF GOD AND ENTERING INTO IT. I HAVE TOLD YOU NOT TO ASK ANY PERSON TO COME TO BROTHERHOOD, BUT YOU CONTINUE TO BEG PEOPLE TO COME AND RECEIVE BAPTISM SO THAT THEIR PROBLEMS MAY BE OVER. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BEG HIM? IS IT THE PHYSICIAN WHO GOES ABOUT LOOKING FOR A PATIENT OR THE SICK MAN WHO LOOKS FOR A PHYSICIAN? Amongst you, whoever sees that he is a sinner, let him be baptized. But if you claim you are not a sinner (1 John 1:8), you are condemned. You cannot enter into this Kingdom, and till eternity, you will not see it. If you are told that the person was killed by sickness or ghost, do not believe. The Holy Spirit has taken dominion over the world and there is nothing that can rear its ugly head. If you suffer, you only suffer because you have committed sins. It is for this reason that He commissioned us to "Go and make all nations my disciples, baptizing 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." (Matt 28:19-20). THE PROBLEM BESETTING US AND THE ENTIRE WORLD IS THAT WE DO NOT BELIEVE IN HIM AND WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE HOLY SPIRIT. ALL OUR

PROBLEMS STEM FROM THIS. WHOEVER IS NOT BAPTIZED IS DAMNED. Some people ask, why is it that when a sick person is taken to Brotherhood and is baptized, his problems are over? Some will argue that Brotherhood causes people to become sick and after that they get you baptized so that you may become a Brotherhood and for that reason, they cannot come. Is Brotherhood lacking members? The whole world is Brotherhood. India is sending delegations to Calabar. Other countries including United States of America and Russia, are Brotherhood. And so where do you find juju? The time for diabology, preparation of concoction has long past. This is the era of the Holy Spirit. Any necromancer coming to you looks for money. **He collects your money but remains in Brotherhood. Brethren, I do not intend to belabor you, let our golden text be read. Our Lord Jesus the Christ makes this statement. He spoke, practiced and wishes all of us to do same. Golden Text:

Matthew 3:15-17 "And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he suffered him. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him; And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
Brethren, have you heard that? You are calling upon

Our Lord Jesus every day. Have you come out from water? Have you been bestowed with the power of the Holy Spirit? It is not going to the church which is difficult. It is not being baptized that is difficult. Our Lord Jesus Christ was circumcised on the eighth day according to the tradition of the Jews. Circumcision was the first kind of baptism which Abraham introduced. And, according to the Mosaic law, He was taken to the temple, and water was sprinkled upon His head to purify Him. The one baptism you now hear of, took effect when He was thirty years old. He went by his own volition to John the Baptist to be baptized. He went to be baptized of John but John argued. He answered John saying, "Suffer it to be so now; for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness." IF IT WERE NOT THAT IMPORTANT, WHY DO YOU THINK OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SHOULD HAVE GONE TO JOHN THE BAPTIST? BEFORE THIS TIME, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST HAD NO DISCIPLE; NOBODY HAD HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT HIM.

RIGHT FROM THE TIME HE WAS OVERSHADOWED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, THE ONE REFERRED TO AS THE FATHER, STARTED HIS WORK. THAT IS THE
SPIRIT. THE SPIRIT DID EVERYTHING.THE SPIRIT LED, SELECTED THE DISCIPLES AND DID ALL THE WORKS. THE WORKS WERE NOT DONE BY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. IT WAS THAT SAME SPIRIT WHICH LED HIM INTO THE WILDERNESS. HE WAS NOT THE ONE WHO LED THE SPIRIT. ALL THE STORIES YOU HEAR OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, RESULTED FROM THE WORK BY THE

SPIRIT OF GOD IN HIM.

BECAUSE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, GOD REVEALED HIMSELF TO US. THIS WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE BAPTISM BY IMMERSION WHICH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SUBJECTED HIMSELF TO.
In your own case, water is sprinkled on your face. In some cases, water is sprinkled on the faces of very young ones. When you grow up, you claim to have been baptized. Is that the way to be baptized? Have you received the Holy Spirit? Our Lord Jesus Christ had said that the Holy Spirit, who is also the Comforter, will teach you everything and will also bring to your remembrance all that I had said unto you. (John 14:26). THE WORLDLY KNOWLEDGE HAS NO PART TO PLAY HERE. Whoever has not got the Holy Spirit, writes out his prayers and sermons, quoting from Shakespeare and other novels. BUT HERE, WHEN YOU COME IN, NO MATTER HOW LITTLE, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL CARRY OUT HIS WORK THROUGH YOU. HERE THERE IS NEITHER MAN NOR WOMAN. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS EVERYTHING. I have no boast in myself. I have never attended any church denomination. I have never read the Bible nor any other book for that matter. How do we come by what we are now witnessing? Graduates of all the faculties you can imagine, come here with their certificates. Such certificates are not worth anything. The Dean of the Faculty of Religious Studies and Philosophy in the University of Calabar came here to see me and I told her that she is a fornicator and she

concurred. Whatever a person's status in life is, be he a lawyer, a doctor, a professor, or a philosopher, invite him to come with his credentials and I will bundle him aside with his certificate.

AS WE HAD BORNE THE IMAGE OF THE HEAVENLY, THIS WISDOM IS FROM ABOVE, GIVEN BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. I AM NOT HERE WITH A BIBLE BUT IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE WHILE READING THE BIBLE, I CORRECT YOU FROM HERE. RIGHT NOW, I KNOW ALL THAT IS IN YOUR MINDS, YOUR THOUGHTS, HEARTS DESIRES AND ENCUMBRANCES. DO NOT SAY THEM OUT TO MY HEARING. IT IS NOT OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU PER SE WHO KNOWS IT, BUT THE WORK IS DONE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.
You have a share in it. I want you now to seek for the Holy Spirit. As our Lord Jesus Christ went and asked to be baptized of John and when John argued He said, "Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness," (Matt 3:15) so should you also go now and become truly repentant. Forsake the world. Get baptized so that you may inherit this Kingdom of God gratis.

YOU WILL NOTICE THAT WHEN OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SAID, FATHER INTO THY HANDS I COMMEND MY SPIRIT, HE GAVE UP THE GHOST. (LUKE 23:46). SPIRIT IS LIFE AND EVERY OTHER THING. WHEN THE SPIRIT GOES OUT OF YOU, THE LIFE IN YOU ALSO GOES OUT.

You cannot hear the words that you are hearing now, if you do not have the Spirit. You will not even see Olumba Olumba Obu. You will only be asking people, "Where is Olumba Olumba Obu" even while you are right here in this Hall. You cannot see. BUT THE MAN WHO HAS THE SPIRIT HEARS, SEES AND KNOWS. YOU CANNOT ENUMERATE THE WONDERFUL THINGS WROUGHT IN BROTHERHOOD. YOU HAD THOUGHT OF SEEING A BEARDED MAN. THE ONE NOW SPEAKING TO YOU IS OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU. IN THE NEXT TEN YEARS I WILL BE YOUNGER THAN I AM TODAY. The same thing will happen to you if you are baptized. This promise is not for me alone, but for all the inhabitants of the world. I am calling on you all to come, so that we should reason together.

IT IS FOR THIS REASON THAT WHEN PEOPLE ARGUE THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS DEAD, I ASK HOW AND WHEN. HE IS HERE DOING EVERYTHING. NO PERSON HAS EVER GIVEN THE SPIRIT TO THE OTHER PERSON. NO ONE, APART FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT, HAS EVER SERVED ANY PERSON.
WHEN YOU PRAY UNTIL OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST COMES BACK, WHERE DID HE GO TO? THE FATHER IS HERE. THE SON IS HERE. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS HERE. IT IS VERY GOOD THAT YOU HAVE COME TO HEAR FROM THE HORSES MOUTH; BECAUSE WHEN BROTHERHOOD MEMBERS COME TO YOU, THEY ATTRIBUTE THE WORK DONE TO OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU. SUCH IS A BLASPHEMOUS STATEMENT. THIS IS WHAT

NO PERSON CAN DO; BUT WITH GOD EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. IF YOU TELL PEOPLE IT IS DONE BY OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU, YOU CONFUSE PEOPLE. THEY WILL THEN DECIDE THAT IF THIS IS SO, THEN IT IS WITCHCRAFT AND APPARITION. TELL THEM THAT IT IS DONE BY THE HOLY SPIRIT; THAT GOD IS THE ONE WORKING. PREACH THE HOLY SPIRIT TO PEOPLE WHEREVER YOU GO TO. BY SO DOING, THEIR SICKNESS WILL BE HEALED. YOUR LACK AND ENCUMBRANCES WILL BE TAKEN AWAY. BELIEVE THAT HE IS THE ONE DOING THE WORK AND YOU WILL HAVE NO PROBLEMS. WHAT ARE THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT? THEY ARE LOVE, TRUTH, MERCY, PEACE, PATIENCE, TEMPERANCE, SELF CONTROL, HOLINESS, HUMILITY, GOODNESS, MEEKNESS, HAPPINESS AND TRUTH. (GAL 5:22-23). HERE THERE IS NEITHER MALE NOR FEMALE (GAL 3:28). THERE ARE NO RESERVED SEATS. Whatever your position or status in life is, be you a leper or thief, or a good person, or a lawyer, or a doctor, it does not come into estimation. We all eat from the same plate. He is the ruler of heaven and earth. All of us are brothers and sisters.

THAT HE DWELLS IN US, EXPLAINS WHY YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT BROTHERHOOD PREACHES AGAINST DRINKING. Should you drink, or snuff, or
indulge in diabology, or inject any powder into your body or fornicate or do any vile thing, you have defiled the temple of the most high God (1 Cor 3:16/6:19/ 2 Cor 6:16). HE HAS NO OTHER DWELLING PLACE THAN OUR BODIES. THAT IS

WHY IT IS SAID THAT WE SHOULD PURIFY OURSELVES EVEN AS HE IS PURE (1 JOHN 3:3). DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOUR BODIES ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT? WHOEVER DEFILES IT, HIM WILL GOD DESTROY (1 COR 3:17). Brethren, that is the root of our problems. You do not have to quarrel. If you begrudge or bear malice against any person, you have defiled the temple of the most high God. (1 Cor 3:16,6:19/ 2 Cor 6:16) If you quarrel, or curse, or fight, or indulge in diabology or any other act of sin, you render the temple of God defiled. THIS IS WHY MANY MEMBERS WHO HAVE NOT YET ACCEPTED THESE TRUE TEACHINGS, SUFFER A GREAT DEAL. RIGHT FROM THE DAY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST CAME OUT OF THE WATER OF BAPTISM, HE ABANDONED HIS CARPENTRY WORK AND ALL OTHER CHORES. IT WAS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHICH LED HIM INTO THE WILDERNESS. IN LIKE MANNER, WHOEVER IS BAPTIZED LIKE OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, HAS ENTERED INTO THIS KINGDOM OF GOD. YOU CANNOT PREACH THE WORD OF GOD IF YOU ARE NOT BESTOWED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. THAT IS WHY THE GOSPEL OF GOD CANNOT BE PREACHED OUTSIDE BROTHERHOOD. What will a man without the Holy Spirit preach? He preaches about man. He talks of how a member is in love with another member's wife; or how a member has not paid the church dues; or how some members have not contributed to the building funds of the church. Brethren, it is said that one stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. I do not intend to be tedious unto you. Those who have ears, let them hear. May God bless

His Holy Words. Amen! THANK YOU HOLY FATHER REFERENCE: Everlasting Sermon Delivered By The Holy Father, Leader Olumba Olumba Obu on: "SALVATION THROUGH BELIEF ANDBAPTISM." From: HERALD OF THE NEW KINGDOM Saturday, Feb. 15, to Friday, Feb. 28, 1986. Pages: 7-11

THE REJECTED MESSIAH

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS YESTERDAY, TODAY AND (HEBREWS13:8) THE SAME FOREVER.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 21:42 Jesus said unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lords doing and it is marvelous in our eyes? SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 17: 25 But fi rst must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation. GOLDEN TEXT: JOHN 1: 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
Hear the Word of God! Whenever the texts are read out, people have to agitate within their minds what is coming up for the day. It is said that only the king knows the secrets of his kingdom. So what he shuts none can open; what he opens no one can shut. Even if you pray, you cannot know

what is going to be preached. Even if you are a visioner, you cannot see into this. All of you have got the Bible but do you read those texts? It is today that I want to reveal them to you and the meaning of these portions. Listen attentively and pray in spirit. Fix your gaze steadfastly on the red garment. Since the Father does not want us to perish, He has set aside this Holy week so that we may change over, so that He can use us in manifesting his glory. I am sure that the revelation of todays scriptures is going to save a great number of souls who would otherwise, have perished throughout the entire world. It will also remove the thought of the things of this world from the hearts of many and will make them think about the things of this kingdom. This revelation will also cause all those who came here to joke to reorder their thinking. Many people, angels and men, will repent of their sins because of todays gospel. All those who are proud and who regard themselves as good, righteous and the only exalted ones, this gospel will humble all of them. Brethren what was being referred to in the three texts read? Of whom were they prophesying? Our Lord Jesus Christ asked them, Have you not heard what is written in the Scripture, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lords doing and it is marvelous in our eyes. To whom were the prophets referring when they spoke that prophesy mentioned by Our Lord Jesus Christ? Has this prophesy been fulfilled or not? The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. Brethren I groan with pain and tears in my eyes for the whole of this generation. It is said that heaven and earth shall pass away but the

Word of God will never pass away until they are fulfilled. What was done to the Jews will also be done to the Gentiles. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER. Can you not see that Jesus is the stone which builders have rejected? You are looking for help from Him and you are praying that God should come and save you from tribulation and death, that there are too many sins and suffering; but Our Lord Jesus Christ is the stone which the world has rejected. Until this day, has the whole world not rejected Him? But you continue to shout Jesus, Jesus. HE IS THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO WAS IN EXISTENCE BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD WAS LAID. HE CAME DOWN ON EARTH TO SAVE US BUT THE WORLD REJECTED HIM. THIS STONE IS NO OTHER PERSON THAN HIM. NO OTHER PERSON HAS BECOME THE CORNERSTONE, HE ALONE IS THE CORNERSTONE. The church has rejected Him. Even the afflicted, the sick, and the poor have rejected Him. But we are looking for help. We want Him to come and change us, we want him to come and lead us, we want Him to come and guide us, we want Him to come and teach us about His kingdom. We want Him to rule, but we reject Him: we have rejected the ruler of the whole world. That alone accounts for the position you now find yourself in. HE IS THE MEDIATOR OF THE NEW COVENANT. HE IS THE LEADER OF THE GOVERNMENT FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION. THERE IS NO OTHER KING IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH APART FROM HIM. HE ALONE HAS TO RULE, BUT HAS THE WORLD NOT REJECTED HIM? HE SPOKE FROM HEAVEN TO YOU BUT YOU WONDERED WHY HE ALWAYS SENT HIS

VOICE FROM ABOVE THROUGH THE PROPHETS; COULD HE NOT COME DOWN THAT YOU MAY SEE HIM? All the words you find from the book of Genesis down to the book of Revelation are spoken by Him. There is no other person apart from Him right from Genesis through Revelation. David called Him My LORD, Moses called Him JEHOVAH. He was given different names at all times. In the time of Moses, the Israelites asked Him every time you continue telling us, Thus says the Lord, can He not come down so that we may also see Him? They said they were fed up with hearing thus said the Lord everyday. One day Moses told them to get prepared and follow him to see God. When they went to ascend the mountain, the heaven merged with the earth, there were thunder and lightening, thick clouds of darkness emerged and there was a terrible earthquake. They told Moses to go alone and come back to report to them because they could not bear the sight of God. After all these, did they obey or hear His voice? Did they observe the commandments which they were given? No person believed Moses. The laws were given to them not to kill, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to bear false witness, not to have any other gods, but these were the very things they did to perfection. For this reason, twenty-three thousand Israelites died in one day for the sin of fornication. Christ told them, do not think that I will accuse you before God. Even Moses whom you claim to know, he has passed judgement on you. If you believed what Moses wrote, you would also believe me, because Moses bore testimony of me. As long as you do not believe in Moses, how will you believe in me? You will see that upon all the mighty works which God did through Moses, they did not believe in Him.

It was not long after he went to the mountain to receive the laws, when the Israelites asked Aaron to make them a god who will go before them because they did not know what had happened to Moses. Think of that situation. Moses brought them out of Egypt to the place they were but as he went to collect the laws, they said they did not know what was wrong with his head; they called on Aaron to make them a god. Did they not reject Moses? Aaron was his brother and he went ahead and made a golden calf and they danced and rejoiced over it.
They acclaimed that the golden calf was the god who was to go before them. By the time Moses came back, they were singing to another deity. Moses in anger threw down the tablets of commandments and they were broken. Can you see the stone which the builders rejected? It was God Himself who sent Moses to them but they went and made for themselves a golden calf with eyes that could not see and ears that could not hear. They exchanged the living God for a lifeless object. It was said that Elijah would come before the Messiah and they were waiting for Him, but when He arrived they sought to kill Him until he had to ask God on three occasions to take away his life. There is nothing they did not do to Elijah. They destroyed all the altars of God and killed all His prophets. The world has done these things to all the prophets of God right from Abel until today. THE WORLD DOES NOT WANT TO HEAR OF ANY PERSON WHO SPEAKS OF GOD. THEY HAVE ALL REJECTED GOD. When you read First Kings 19:10-18 you will see how Elijah

prayed that they had killed all of Gods prophets and he alone was left and they were seeking his life. That will prove what the world is to you. Throughout the whole world, right from the time of Adam, no one wants Jehovah God and his Christ. Upon all that, they feign righteousness. The moment they hear anything pertaining to God, a fight will start. But he is the stone which the builders have rejected. No person believed in Elijah and so God took him up finally before their eyes. They repented of their sins and started weeping, O! When is he coming back again? We should not have done that to him, they lamented. But it was too late. Since they told God that they are looking for Elijah, God told them that he would send him again. In Malachi 4:5 5: And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts. It is prophesied that Elijah will come before the Messiah arrived and they were very eager for this to happen. They

took the portrait of Elijah and continued to look up to the sky. Until this day the whole of Israel is still waiting for Elijah to come again. If you go to tell them
that the Messiah did come, they will tell you to sit down because you do not know what you are saying. They will ask you if you do not know that Elijah will precede the Messiah. If Elijah has not come, how can you talk about the coming of the Messiah? If you talk of Christ to them, they will stone you to death. Did Elijah not come? Who was John the Baptist? JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS ELIJAH, but who

believed in him?(Matthew 17:10-13). 10: And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come? 11: And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. 12: But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. 13: Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist. They expected Elijah from the sky as they held his portrait in their hands, but since they could not see the facial resemblance between John the Baptist and Elijah, they did not believe in him. What is it that they did not do unto John? John the Baptist taught them everything about purification. He turned their hearts from their evil ways into believing in God but what happened? Did Herodias not demand for the head of John the Baptist? Was it not him who sent soldiers to go and cut the head of John the Baptist in prison? Is it not the very you who say you are looking for salvation? That was the Elijah they said would come and save them but did they know him? Let the first lesson be read. FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 21:42 Jesus said unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lords doing and it is marvelous in our eyes? Have you heard that? THE MESSIAH WHICH THE WHOLE WORLD HAS BEEN WAITING FOR, THAT WHEN HE CAME, HE WOULD LEAD THEM TO THE WISDOM OF TRUTH, DID HE NOT COME? HE IS THE KING OF KINGS; BEFORE CREATION HE WAS KING. HIS GLORY DID NOT COME FROM MAN. HE

WAS BORN KING. WHEN MAN WAS CREATED, HE WAS THERE. HE IS THE RULER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH. Herod was startled by the mention of another king of the Jews. On the same night he arranged and carried out the murder of all infants below the age of two. Is that not the stone which the builders rejected? Is that not the Christ they were praying should come quickly? Do not forget that God wanted to destroy the whole world because He was fed up with it. No angel intervened, no man intervened, but Our Lord Jesus Christ said: Do not destroy it, Father, I will go and save them. THAT IS THE STONE THE BUILDERS REJECTED; WE HAVE THE ONE WHO CAME TO SAVE US. HE IS THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS; THE RULER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH. HE CAME TO SAVE MAN FROM DESTRUCTION AND PLACE HIM IN THE POSITION OF GLORY, BUT HAVE WE NOT REJECTED HIM? Did we not kill him? Do we not hate him? Have we not spat on him? Have we not called Him Beelzebub and ghost? There is no church denomination or individual or government or nation which wants Him. Put it in your diary because today belongs to Him. Look at the finger which has fed us, you not only bite it but you chew it. Let all the world, including the angels and men ponder over this thing. What is going to happen to man who persists in making the same error every time? What evil did our Lord do to you? He raised the dead, he made the lame to walk, he made the blind to see, he cleansed the lepers. What evil thing has he done that you reject him? He alone loves us. HE IS THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO HAS LIFE, AND IN WHOSE HANDS ARE THE KEYS OF DEATH. HE RULES OVER THE HADES. HE IS JUDGE AND RULER. BUT HAS THE WORLD NOT REJECTED HIM?

HE IS OUR LEADER,

Think this over: that man was lying by the pool of Bethesda for thirty-eight years and he had no one who could put him inside the water. Jesus came and asked him if he was desirous to be made whole, and he answered and said that when the angel troubled the water, he had no one to carry him into the pool. The sick who had relations were taken down there but he had no person to help him. Christ asked him if he was willing to be made whole, and he asked how that could happen. Christ commanded him to, Rise, take up thy bed and walk. And immediately the man was made whole. Who else could do that work? Since then, who else has done that kind of work? What evil thing did Christ do by telling the man to rise up and walk, even when he did not charge him a kobo? He did not offer any sacrifices but he was made whole. What evil did he commit? Tell me, all of you inhabitants of the world, what sin did Jesus commit against you? He went on with His disciples and found someone who was blind from his birth and His disciples asked Him: Is it this man who sinned or his parents that he should be born blind? Christ told them that Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but he was born so that the glory of God might be made manifest in him. And he spat on the ground and mixed the clay with His spittle and anointed the eye of the blind man with the clay and said unto him, Go wash in the pool of Siloam. The blind man went and washed and received his sight. What sin did Christ commit in this situation? Was He responsible for the work? The people asked the blind man how he came to see; and he told them that a man named Jesus made him see; there was uproar. But they did not do anything to help him when he was blind. Right now they were furious because He had opened the eyes of a blind man on the Sabbath day.

That was the stone which the builders rejected. HE CAME TO SAVE US. HE IS THE SON OF MAN, THE SON OF GOD AND GOD HIMSELF. BUT WE REJECTED HIM. The war started because they argued that he would not have healed on the Sabbath day if he came from God; in their understanding, He was from the Devil. They called the parents of him that had received his sight and asked them: Is this your son who was born blind? How then does he now see? His parents answered them and said,We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind but by what means he now seeth, we know not; he is of age, ask him: he shall speak for himself. They gave this answer because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had agreed already that if any man did confess that He was Christ, he should be put out of the Synagogue. They again called the man that was born blind, and asked him how He opened his eyes. He answered and said to them: I have told you already and ye did not hear; why do you want to hear it again? Will you also be His disciples? Then they reviled him and said, thou art His disciple, but we are Moses disciples. We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is. Let our second lesson be read. I KNOW THE T.V. WILL DIVIDE THIS GOSPEL INTO SECTIONS BECAUSE WHEN THEY GET TO TOPICS WHICH CONVICT THEM HARD, THERE HAS TO BE ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT BREAK IN TRANSMISSION OF THE BROADCAST. BUT IF IT IS A SATANIC PROGRAM, THEY WILL SHOW IT TILL THE END WITHOUT ANY TRANSMISSION INTERRUPTION. Second Bible Lesson: Luke 17: 25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation. Whom was

this written about? To whom does this prophecy refer? It is said that first he must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation; this generation must reject him. Did they not say that it was Moses they knew? But as for that man he was from the devil and no person should listen to him. The whole world is shouting Jesus, Jesus, but did they not reject Him? Did your fathers and mothers not reject Him? Today who can show me one disciple of Our Lord Jesus Christ? Who among you keeps His commandments? Bring that person before me. When Lazarus was sick, his sisters went and told Christ that the friend whom he loved was sick. And he answered them and said: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of man might be glorified. And he went about his own business. After about four days, He said to His disciples, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; let us go that I may awake him out of sleep. Then said the disciples, Lord if he sleeps, he shall wake up. He then told them plainly that Lazarus had died; nevertheless let us go and raise him. (John 11:14-15) Peter was excited because that was the sort of thing he was waiting to see. And they asked Him: Master the Jews of late sought to stone thee, and do you want to go there again?(John 11:7-8) Jesus never went out openly to declare He was the Christ. He went in the company of His disciples, and they all wore the same garments so that He may not be identified. When He healed any sick person, He would warn him not to tell anyone. That is the rejected stone. HE IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD, THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO CAME TO SAVE YOU THIEVES AND SINNERS BUT YOU REJECTED HIM. PUT YOURSELVES INTO FERVENT PRAYERS. I do not want to go far into that but

you know what happened when He raised Lazarus from death. The whole city was in an uproar. Then gathered the Chief Priest and the Pharisees and said: If we let this continue like this, all men would believe in him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. Caiaphas stood up as the high priest and said: Ye know nothing at all, nor consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. Because he raised Lazarus and healed the sick, the blind, the lame and the deaf, because he cleansed lepers, fed the poor and did every good thing, they said that He must die. Can you see how the world thanked God for coming to save them? He would first suffer many things and be rejected of this generation and that was exactly the situation with Him. IT WAS NOT THE GOVERNMENT THAT KILLED OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. IT WAS NOT THE JUJU PRIESTS WHO CLAIMED TO KNOW THE REAL GOD BETTER THAN ALL OTHERS. IT WAS NOT THE ROMANS WHO KILLED HIM; THAT WAS WHY PILATE ASKED HIM: AM I A JEW? WAS IT NOT YOUR OWN PEOPLE WHO BROUGHT YOU HERE? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? TO DAY THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING: THE CHURCHES WHO CLAIM TO KNOW GOD BETTER ARE THOSE WHO ARE CONSPIRING AND ASKING WHAT THEY ARE TO DO WITH THIS MAN BECAUSE HE IS STILL PERFORMING WONDERS. WHEN PILATE HAD EXAMINED HIM, HE COULD FI ND NO FAULT IN HIM. Barabbas was a murderer and at every festival a criminal had to be freed. Pilate asked which of the two he should release unto them, Barabbas or Jesus? They answered that he should release Barabbas to them and crucify Jesus. They sought for the release of Barabbas even though every

person knew that he was a murderer, a thief, and an evil doer; they demanded that Jesus should be killed. And Pilate asked them: What has He done? But they said crucify him. Can you see that? It is said that first he must suffer many things and this generation will reject Him. Because of giving sight to the blind and healing the sick, the Chief Priest and the Pharisees, those who claimed they had seen God face to face, said they knew Abraham and Moses and NOT Jesus. Those were the people who said that He should be crucified because He was a sinner. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT MAKE TROUBLE, THEY SEEK PEACE. RIGHT FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL THE PEOPLE WHO WAGED WAR AGAINST GOD ARE THOSE WHO PROFESS TO KNOW HIM. AND SO IT WAS WITH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. PILATE TRIED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO RELEASE HIM BUT THE JEWS INSISTED ON HAVING HIM KILLED. PILATE SET UP OVER HIS HEAD HIS ACCUSATION WRITTEN: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS. THEN SAID THE CHIEF PRIEST OF THE JEWS TO PILATE, WRITE NOT THE KING OF THE JEWS, BUT THAT HE SAID I AM KING OF THE JEWS. PILATE ANSWERED AND SAID, WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN, I HAVE WRITTEN. Brethren, have you assessed the situation properly. That is why he said, Why do you call me Lord, Lord but you do not the things I command you? He knew that there was not one single person who believed in Him. The work of God is not subject to any persons decision. It is either you shoot the gun and split the barrel rather than lose the prey. There was not one person who believed in Our Lord Jesus Christ. If there is such a person, mention him. If you want to mention Peter, I will remind you that he was the first person to deny Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Let our Golden Text be read so that when you go back home, you will think seriously about yourself. I do not say go beyond that. The gospel of today is like a pregnant woman, the time for delivery is fast approaching. I am not butchering; I am only incising with the knife. GOLDEN TEXT: JOHN 1: 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. To whom does this refer? Who is that person who goes to his own but his own received him not? Do you not argue that God is not man? But God said, LET US MAKE MAN IN

OUR OWN IMAGE AFTER OUR LIKENESS. THE US REFERS TO THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. But now you argue that God is not man. Is he an
animal or a rock? Is he an angel? Answer me, you wise men. HE CAME IN HIS OWN LIKENESS. HIS LIKENESS IS MAN. HE COMES AS A MAN AND ON EVERY 25TH DAY OF DECEMBER EVERYBODY EATS AND REJOICES THAT THE VIRGIN MARY HAS GIVEN BIRTH TO A BABY BOY. BUT NO PERSON BELIEVES IN HIM. And so the above scripture refers to Our Lord Jesus Christ, He came in the manger as a man. But did you receive Him? Who received Him? If he did not fi ll the boat of Peter with fishes, Peter would not have followed Him. When He told His disciples how he must go to Jerusalem and Chief Priest and Scribes, and be killed and raised again on the third day, Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him: This shall not be unto thee. Peter said this because he had read that Christ would not die, forever he will not die and so if Jesus was going to face death now it would mean that he, Peter, had made a mistake in following Him. Can you say that he knew or understood Our Lord Jesus Christ?

That is one. Another thing is that all that Jesus spoke to them in public when they were alone, with Him, they would ask Him to explain to them. At another time, Peter said: We have left everything and followed you, what shall be our gain? Does that question show that Peter believed in Him? I can continue to cite instances to you to convince you that no person believed in Him; but He can use anything to manifest His own glory. THEY WERE FOLLOWING HIM BECAUSE HE WILLED IT SO; IT WAS NOT OUT OF THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF HIM THAT THEY FOLLOWED HIM. TAKE THE CASE OF JOHN THE BAPTIST WHO REVEALED HIM TO THE WHOLE OF ISRAEL AS THE CHRIST; DID HE NOT DENY CHRIST? Did he know Him? When he was put in prison by Herod, he remembered that the scriptures had said that when Christ came He would deliver the captives and set at liberty those that are bruised and so John consoled himself that Christ would come and remove him from prison immediately. But as he waited no person came; and so he sent two of his disciples unto Christ to find out if He was the expected one or they were to wait for another. Did John believe in Him? Do not joke with the Word of God. When you hear that a great multitude followed Jesus it was because of the bread and fish He used to feed them with. There was no person who followed Him with the conviction that He was God, or the Christ. UNLESS HE INJECTS HIS SPIRIT INTO YOU SO THAT YOU CAN PERCEIVE THIS TRUTH, YOU CANNOT KNOW HIM. HE CAN ENTER INTO YOU IN A MOMENT AND YOUR EYES WILL BECOME CLEAR AND HE WILL IMMEDIATELY CLOSE IT UP. HE CHANGES INTO ANOTHER FORM AND YOU WILL FALL BACK INTO YOUR DOUBT. GOD IS TERRIBLY WONDERFUL. Earthly things are used to illustrate heavenly things. If he

JEHOVAH GOD AND HIS CHRIST IS THE REJECTED STONE. BUT IS HE NOT THE RULER
REJECT HIM?

did not make bread for the people to eat who would have listened to Him? His creature will follow Him. You have heard what He said: NO MAN KNOWS THE FATHER, EXCEPT HE SON, AND NO MAN KNOWS THE SON, EXCEPT THE FATHER AND TO WHOM HE WOULD REVEAL HIM. That is where the whole thing hangs. JESUS CHRIST IS HERE WITH THE FATHER. THEY ARE EATING AND WORKING WITH YOU BUT CAN YOU SEE THEM? You cannot see them, you do what you must do, as you have always done. Because it is said: HE CAME UNTO HIS OWN BUT HIS OWN RECEIVED HIM NOT. Did His brothers receive Him? DID THEY NOT

OF HEAVEN AND EARTH? HE CONTROLS HELL AND HADES; HE CONTROLS EVERYTHING. HE IS THE SON OF MAN BECAUSE OF THE BLOOD. THE BLOOD IS MAN. HE IS THE SON OF GOD BECAUSE OF THE WATER; AND WATER IS GOD. SO HE IS GOD BECAUSE HE IS SPIRIT. THAT WAS

HIM BUT DID YOU KNOW HIM? DID YOU RECEIVE HIM? TELL ME IF YOU KNEW THAT WAS GOD WHO CAME TO SAVE YOU? THAT IS WHAT IDENTIFIES HIM AS GOD. On the cross He said: FATHER INTO THY HANDS I COMMEND MY SPIRIT. IT MEANS THAT THE SPIRIT IS THE FATHER, AND IF YOU HAVE THAT SPIRIT YOU WILL RESURRECT. WHEN THE SOLDIERS PIERCED HIS SIDE, THERE CAME OUT WATER AND BLOOD FROM HIM, AND THAT WATER IS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD. THE BLOOD IS MAN, AND SO HE WAS THE SON OF MAN, SON OF GOD

AND GOD HIMSELF. THAT WAS THE REASON JOHN WAS TOLD TO BAPTIZE WITH WATER. THE WATER IS CHRIST. AND CHRIST HIMSELF SAYS THAT EXCEPT YOU ARE BORN OF WATER AND SPIRIT, YOU CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD. THAT IS WHY IT IS SAID THAT AS MANY AS HAVE BEEN BURIED WITH HIM IN SPIRIT IN BAPTISM HAVE PUT ON CHRIST. (Gal.3:27). YOU HAVE BEEN READING THE
BIBLE BUT HAVE YOU EVER HAD THIS REVELATION GIVEN UNTO YOU NOW? AFTER BAPTISM HE BESTOWS THE HOLY SPIRIT ON YOU AND YOU THEN HAVE THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. EVERYTHING IS CONSUMMATED. HE IS THE SON OF MAN, THE SON OF GOD AND HE IS HERE RIGHT NOW BUT CAN YOU SEE HIM? DO YOU BELIEVE IN HIM? In the Book of Revelation 12:5 it is written that a woman brought forth a man child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. When hunting a strong or large animal one needs an exceptionally matching powerful bullet. Man is not a single creature and so He has to rule all nations with a rod of iron. You wonder why I always laugh when I say these things, but why should I not laugh? I have to laugh. On that fateful day, He told His disciples that they would all deny Him and forsake Him. But Peter said that even if all forsook Him, I will never forsake you. But when the time came he was the first person to deny Him. THIS WILL SHOW YOU THAT THIS ELECTION IS EXTENDED TO US FREE OF CHARGE. IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF YOUR GOODNESS OR YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS; IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF YOUR FAITH OR YOUR DESIRE. BUT HE IS LOVE, HE IS FAITH, HE IS TRUTH, AND EVERYTHING. HE

CALLED US OUT OF GRACE AND YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW HE CALLED YOU. HE HAS CHOSEN TO GIVE THIS KINGDOM TO THOSE HE LOVES. What man loves, God does not love; and what God loves man does not love. IT IS NOT THE PERSON WHO COMMENDS HIMSELF THAT IS APPROVED BUT IT IS THE PERSON WHO GOD COMMENDS THAT IS APPROVED. The world does not receive Christ neither do they know Him; they disgrace Him and despise Him; BUT GOD HAS GIVEN HIM A NAME WHICH IS ABOVE EVERY OTHER NAME, AS THE RULER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH. AND THE VERY PERSON THE WORLD HAS DISCLAIMED IS APPOINTED BY GOD TO BE THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO IS TO JUDGE EVERY CREATURE IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH. SINCE GOD HAS DECLARED HIM AS HIS BELOVED SON, YOU CAN WEEP IF YOU WANT TO WEEP. IF YOU LIKE YOU CAN REJOICE. YOU CLAIM THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW HIM BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT HE IS THE RULER IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH. When Christ was killed, did Peter not go back to his fishing? Our Lord Jesus Christ said that He would resurrect on the third day; but since they did not have the Spirit of God they did not hear Him. When you do not have the Spirit of God, everything here is like cinema. After you have heard and seen, everything then passes away, and you cannot remember them again. HE SAYS I HAVE COME IN MY FATHERS NAME AND YOU DO NOT RECEIVE ME BUT WHEN ANOTHER SHALL COME IN HIS OWN NAME YOU WILL RECEIVE HIM AND PROCLAIM HIM AS A WONDERFUL MAN. Can you not see the coming of another person and how you have rejoiced in Him? Do you think that at this time He will again go about calling people to follow Him? The time He

came and called people to follow Him who obeyed? This time he is not asking you to come, He is using a rod of iron to rule. HE DOES NOT TELL YOU THAT HE IS JESUS OR GOD, THAT IS CHILDS PLAY. THE ROD OF IRON SIGNIFIES HIS GLORY.

THIS TIME HE IS COMING AS A KING AND YOU KNOW THAT A KING DOES NOT MOVE AROUND BECAUSE HIS WORKERS ARE THERE.

YOU ARGUE THAT WHEN HE CAME, HE WENT FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE PRAYING FOR PEOPLE AND WASHING THEIR FEET, BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT HE IS COMING AGAIN TO PERFORM. HIS CHILDREN ARE THERE TO DO THESE THINGS. IT IS AN INSULT FOR HIM TO DO THAT KIND OF WORK AGAIN. YOU SAY THERE WAS POWER IN THOSE DAYS, -IN JERUSALEM AND IN JERICHO, HE WENT ABOUT DOING MIGHTY WORKS; AND THAT WAS CHILD PLAY. RIGHT NOW HE IS IN AMERICA, IN INDIA, AND EVERYWHERE. HE IS INSIDE YOU, IN THE AIR, IN THE WATER, IN THE SKY, AND EVERYWHERE MAN HAS SET HIS FEET. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF SUCH A PERSON. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF SUCH A RULER? IT IS THE SAME PERSON YOU ARE DENYING. YOU CLAIM THAT HE IS DEAD AND THAT HE CANNOT RULE OVER YOU. BUT IT IS TOO LATE BECAUSE HE HAS COME TO RULE HEAVEN AND EARTH. ALL ANGELS, BLACKS AND WHITES AND COLORED PEOPLE ARE ALL UNDER HIS RULERSHIP. WHETHER YOU KNOW HIM OR NOT IS IRRELEVANT BECAUSE HIS REIGN IS FOREVER AND EVER. HE HAS NOT COME TO CLEANSE THE LEPERS AND RAISE THE DEAD BUT HE HAS A LONG LEG. HE PASSES THROUGH A THIEF AND RAISES THE DEAD AND YOU WILL RUSH AND PROCLAIM THE THIEF AS THE TRUE GOD; AND

SO YOU FAIL. He can use a murderer to raise the dead AND DIVIDE THE SUN INTO TWO AND YOU WILL BE ASTONISHED, IT IS THE SAME ONE. But you will rush to see wonders, you will accept the murderer as the real Jesus. He passes on and you cannot see Him and so you fail by calling the murderer Jesus. WHEN YOU WANT TO IDENTIFY HIM BY POWER AND MIRACLES YOU FAIL. WHEN YOU BEGIN TO COMMEND A PERSON BEING VERY POWERFUL, DO YOU KNOW THE SOURCE OF THAT POWER? He has come to take dominion and rulership. ALL ANGELS HAVE TO SERVE HIM. BRETHREN, CAN YOU SEE THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED? The church denomination says they are waiting for Him but none keeps His injunction of love ye one another which He left us. The Church leader will tell you that he founded the church and that he raised the dead and he is even greater than Jesus. Such works are elementary. THIS TIME HE HAS COME TO CHANGE MAN SO THAT WE CAN LIVE IN PEACE AND LOVE AND JOY WITH ONE ANOTHER. RIGHT NOW RAISING THE DEAD IS A CARNAL JOB. IF YOU PRESS ON LOOKING FOR THIS TYPE OF SIGN YOU PERISH. He says He will wipe off all tears from your eyes; there will be no more death, nor sorrows, nor mourning again. There will be no sickness nor pain again. When there are no more sicknesses what are you going to cure? That is what he has come to do, but instead of you waiting for Him to do His work you run to native doctors to have your problems solved. Do you think God does not see you? You have failed. HE IS TRUTH, HE IS PEACE, HE IS PATIENCE, MERCY, HUMILITY, RIGHTEOUSNESS, SELF-CONTROL, GLORY, JOY, AND ALL GOOD VIRTUES. It does not involve only raising the dead and going about from house to house. Go to any

part of the world if there is anywhere you can find these virtues apart from in Him. Healing, miracles, are the old style and they are still operating on their own scale. It is the same old thing which is regarded as new when they arrive in Africa. And so all the signs and wonders are meant to deceive the unbelievers. I do not want to say more than this. I want everybody to get back home and ponder over this statement. It is mental arithmetic and you can either have the answer right or wrong. The fact remains that God has never repeated his own thing. If somebody comes to tell you that he is Christ, leave him alone, and pass on. Christ is not coming to walk from place to place. He is coming as the king of kings and Lord of lords. WHERE DOES HE HAVE TO MOVE TO? HE IS EVERYWHERE AND IT IS EITHER YOU SEE HIM OR YOU DO NOT SEE HIM. ANY KING WHO CARRIES HIS OWN CHAIR IS NOT A KING. A KING HAS HIS CHAIR AND THRONE AND EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR HIM. Brethren I do not intend to take you further than this. A stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. He who has ears let him hear. May the Lord bless His Holy words, Amen. THANK YOU HOLY FATHER.

HIGHLIGHTS:
*BRETHREN, BROTHERHOOD HAS NO COMPARISON AND IT IS BEYOND HUMAN COMPREHENSION. THEREFORE, NO PERSON HAS THE POWER TO DO ANYTHING HERE. YOUR BOOK-KNOWLEDGE IS NOT REQUIRED FOR THE WORK OF THIS NEW KINGDOM OF GOD. IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT ALONE THAT DOES EVERYTHING IN THIS KINGDOM; AND SO, ALL THANKS, HONOR AND GLORY MUST BE ATTRIBUTED TO HIM ALONE.

*IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE, I AM THE ONLY LIVING SOUL;

THE REST ARE DEAD AND CANNOT DO ANYTHING. IF ONE IS IN DIFFICULTY AND CALLS ON YOUR NAME, HE WILL NOT BE SAVED BECAUSE YOU ARE DEAD. BUT WHEN THE HOLY NAME OF THE FATHER IS PRONOUNCED, ALL POWERS HAVE TO SUBDUE TO HIM BECAUSE HE IS THE HIGHEST AUTHORITY. I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO SEES FAR AND WIDE BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL DEAD AND BLIND. I SEE THINGS FAR AND NEAR EQUALLY.

.LOVE IS THE HIDDEN POWER IN BROTHERHOOD

AND HE WHO LACKS LOVE IS BLIND, DEAF, LAME, AND CANNOT DO ANYTHING.
Now, I want to ask you a question: What hinders you from practicing THE WORD OF GOD? If you know that particular factor, mention it to me. We are in the Bible Class and every person is free to express his own opinion. Tell me exactly what prevents you from worshiping God, and abiding by His teachings. Is it death, poverty, wretchedness, children, wife, husband, persecution or any other thing that hinders you from practicing THE WORD OF GOD? If you know, tell me. Your situation is just like a situation in which you want a child to go outside and play, and equip him with the necessary tools, but he cannot go outside because there is a masquerade that prevents his going. It seems to me that there is something you fear; if you want to practice THE WORD OF GOD, that thing is either going to kill you or make you poor; and as a result, you vow never to practice THE WORD OF GOD. Tell the world that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star has not yet started in its true perspective. THE DUTY TO PERFORM IS FOUND IN THE BOOKS OF REVELATION FROM CHAPTER ONE TO CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO. All other books in the scriptures talk about other things. From Genesis to Malachi, all the writings there, testify about the advent of our Lord Jesus Christ. But when our Lord Jesus Christ came, He bore witness to the coming of the Holy Spirit. Conclusively therefore, all the writings of the Old

Testament bore witness about the Revelation of John the Divine, and

BROTHERHOOD IS THE REVELATION OF JOHN THE DIVINE.

Revelation 7:9-16 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying: "Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Saying: Amen! Blessing, and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor, and power and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. Apart from the white soutane you put on, see how that passage is fulfilled here in Brotherhood because we serve God day and night in His temple. There is no time for one to say, "Let me go and relax in my house" because it was prophesied about you that you will not sleep in your house,

irrespective of your positions in life: magistrate, judge, engineers, doctors of art, doctors of science and the rest of them. Wherever you go to, you cannot sleep in your house; you will continue to ask where the Bethel is; and when you find it, you go there to sleep so that He will cover you with His wings. Reading from Genesis to Malachi, you will not see any reference made to the wearing of the white soutane, and you will not know where it is written that the children of God in white robes will remain day and night and serve God in His temple. But we have been serving God all round the clock without feeling hunger or thirst. We do not feel the hazards of either but continue to serve God. It therefore means that the Bible passage was written specifically about us. Glance through the whole Bible, and you will discover that Moses, John and our Lord Jesus Christ only had disciples, while the Apostles were the disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ. Look at the church denominations at the present era, mention any of them that has disciples. But what happens wherever you go? You are called the disciples of Obu. Have you seen what was written in the book of Revelation 22:1-5? And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. What is your opinion about that portion of the scriptures? IF YOU EXAMINE THE BEHAVIOR OF THE DIFFERENT CHURCH DENOMINATIONS, YOU WILL OBSERVE THAT SOME OF THEM BEAT DRUMS, CLAP HANDS, BURN INCENSE AND LIGHT CANDLES. THEY TAKE ALL TYPES OF DRUGS, CONSULT NATIVE DOCTORS AND SORCERERS; BUT WHAT HAPPENS HERE? According to Revelation 22:1-5, it is said: the leaves of the tree by the banks of the river will be used in the healing of the nations. Revelation chapter 20:11-15 reveals about fear, and God is going to take away that fear from us. Read Rev. 20:11-15. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. That is, our greatest enemy that makes man fear and tremble is going to be removed completely from the surface of the earth. That thing you dread most in the world is death; and if you insult him, he comes and snatches you

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood away. If there is a report that somebody is dead, the people of that environment will become so sad; they will stand in twos discussing and expressing their sadness about what has happened, even though the deceased may be an infant. Immediately you weep and mourn or show that sign of sorrow, you give death the impetus to become proud and pompous. Among you here, who had ever dreamt of putting on this white soutane? Was it very pleasing to you when you wore it at first? It wasn't. Who is able to tell me how he came into Brotherhood? Did you hear about Brotherhood before you came in? Were you directed by any person? DO YOU KNOW THAT IF YOU ARE NOT CALLED BY THE ALMIGHTY GOD, YOU CANNOT PUT ON THE WHITE SOUTANE, AND COME TO BROTHERHOOD? If that call is not extended to you, you can live where there are members of Brotherhood calling that name, but you will not hear because you are not called. IF YOU ARE NOT CALLED BY GOD, YOU CANNOT WEAR THIS WHITE GARMENT OR GO BARE FOOTED. IT WILL BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO DO MOST OF THE THINGS WE ARE DOING IN BROTHERHOOD, IF YOU ARE NOT CALLED. Matthew 6:9-12 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. THAT PRAYER IS NOW FULFILLED. THAT KINGDOM IS NOW ON EARTH. YOU HAVE SEEN IT AND YOU ARE IN IT. THIS IS THE FULFILLMENT OF THAT PRAYER. THAT

KINGDOM THE DISCIPLES PRAYED FOR, IS WHAT YOU ARE ENJOYING AND WHAT WE DO HERE IS EXACTLY WHAT IS DONE BY THE ANGELS. Before ever you come in here, the angels are already here, arranging everything in their proper order. They are mixing with you, doing all sorts of things, but you cannot see them with your carnal eyes. Sometimes you go on outing with a small number of persons, but after sometime you see the multiplicity of people which you do not know where they come from, and you will never stop to ask where the people come from. We sit down here to listen to THE WORD OF GOD and at the same time fight and quarrel and do all sorts of things; AND YET BROTHERHOOD SPREADS TO ALL THE CONTINENTS OF THE WORLD. YOU NEVER ASK YOURSELF HOW THE GROWTH OF BROTHERHOOD CAME ABOUT, AND WHO HAS BEEN SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR EXPANDING BROTHERHOOD ALL OVER THE WORLD. THE FATHER IS ADVANCING BROTHERHOOD ALL OVER THE WORLD EVEN INTO THE ABYSS. WHEREVER WE GO, WE ARE IDENTIFIED AS BROTHERHOOD, EVEN IF WE PUT ON THE DARKEST GARMENTS. SINCE YOU BECAME A BROTHERHOOD, HAVE YOU EVER HEARD THAT A BROTHERHOOD IS KILLED WITH KNIFE, GUN OR ANY DESTRUCTIVE WEAPON? NO OTHER CHURCH DENOMINATION IN THE WORLD HAS EVER LORDED OVER A MEMBER OF THE BROTHERHOOD. IF YOU GO TO LIVE IN A COMPOUND YOU WILL BE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST, OTHERS MAY EVEN WANT TO DESERT THE COMPOUND, BUT AFTER A WHILE YOU BECOME A RULER IN THAT COMPOUND. Brethren, anywhere you go to you are despised. Some

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood people who vowed not to come to Brotherhood are surprisingly seen in a white soutane later. Who is responsible for all these things? All these occurrences are caused by the angels. You are not responsible and I am not responsible. But it had been written about you that at this particular time, all these things would happen. It is a belief of the people of the world that a man of God is always poor. For this reason, they have an adage which says, "One is as poor as a church rat". The church denominations easily conclude that since a godly man is always poor, his reward is in heaven. IN THIS NEW KINGDOM, IT IS NOT SO. ALL THOSE WHO COME ARE SO WEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS THAT PEOPLE SAY, "IS IT BECAUSE OF THIS MONEY THAT YOU COME TO BROTHERHOOD?" HOW MONEY COMES INTO THE HANDS OF BROTHERHOOD MEMBERS IS BEST KNOWN TO THE HOLY FATHER. YOU WERE PREDESTINED TO ENJOY THIS NEW KINGDOM OF GOD. MANY PEOPLE HAVE THEIR TRUST IN SO MANY THINGS IN THE WORLD: IN CONCOCTIONS, CHARM, TALISMAN; OTHERS LOOK ON NECROMANCERS, SECRET SOCIETIES AND OTHERS TO PRINCIPALITIES OF THE WORLD. OF WHAT USE ARE THESE THINGS TO THEM? The government came and devised a means of getting rid of all sorts of criminals; and for this reason, they established law courts, prisons, and appointed judges and magistrates for the execution of the law. The government, in order to stamp out crimes, has sentenced people to death, and some to life imprisonment. But has that prevented people from committing crimes?

LOVE THERE WAS AN ERA IN WHICH THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A CHURCH WAS THE ORDER OF THE DAY. IF YOU MOVED TO A SMALL VILLAGE WITH A POPULATION OF ABOUT FIFTY PEOPLE, YOU WOULD FIND THAT THERE ARE ABOUT FIVE CHURCHES. IN SPITE OF ALL THESE CHURCHES NOBODY HAS EVER REFRAINED FROM SIN. THE PRINCIPAL AIM OF ALL THESE CHURCHES WAS TO COME AND GET PEOPLE REFORMED FROM THEIR FORMER WAYS OF DOING THINGS; BUT ARE THEY CAPABLE OF DOING IT? What about secret societies, can they set crimes aside? Of all these: mermaid, ghost, Beelzebub and other things, which is capable of doing anything? YOU CANNOT USE AN EVIL THING TO SET ASIDE AN EVIL THING. Hear what our Lord Jesus Christ said in: MATTHEW 15:12-15 THEN CAME HIS DISCIPLES, AND SAID UNTO HIM, KNOWEST THOU THAT THE PHARISEES WERE OFFENDED, AFTER THEY HEARD THIS SAYING? BUT HE ANSWERED AND SAID, EVERY PLANT, WHICH MY HEAVENLY FATHER HATH NOT PLANTED, SHALL BE ROOTED UP. LET THEM ALONE: THEY BE BLIND LEADERS OF THE BLIND. AND IF THE BLIND LEAD THE BLIND, BOTH SHALL FALL INTO THE DITCH. THEN ANSWERED PETER AND SAID UNTO HIM, DECLARE UNTO US THIS PARABLE. Talisman, concoctions, church denominations, secret societies, and others were not established by God. And for this reason, all these things must be eradicated. If you see a person wearing charm around his neck, and suppose that this thing is protecting him, it is a lie. All those who carry charms and concoctions for protection should realize

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood that there is no power in such things. They are merely carrying heavy loads about. What has preoccupied your minds is the source of this power. You continue to ask "From where does this power come?" Is it found inside the ground or in the sea, in the rock, in the bush, sun, moon, star, rivers at Biakpan or 26 Mbukpa Road? From where do we have this power? If you begin to argue like this, it means you do not believe what our Lord Jesus Christ said. THIS SAME MIND OF INVESTIGATING THE SOURCE OF POWER IN BROTHERHOOD, HAS BLOWN CONFUSION INTO THE WHOLE WORLD, BECAUSE NOBODY BELIEVES THAT IN BROTHERHOOD, THERE IS NO OTHER WORLDLY POWER EXCEPT THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT OPERATES. EVEN THE MEMBERS DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE IS NO OUTSIDE FORCE IN BROTHERHOOD. RIGHT NOW, AS YOU ARE SITTING DOWN HERE, THERE ARE CONTAINERS FOR YOUR HOLY OIL SOMEWHERE. IN YOUR HOUSES, CARS AND OFFICES THERE IS A SMALL BOTTLE FILLED WITH HOLY OIL; AND ONCE YOU SUSPECT ANY APPEARANCE OF EVIL, YOU ALWAYS SPRINKLE IT CALLING ON THE NAME OF OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU TO DISPEL THE EVIL. Because of your action you have instilled fear into the hearts of many people who dread the holy oil more than juju or mermaid. Immediately they see you with a bottle of holy oil, they would run back. If people gather together and you sprinkle even the common water from the tap, each of them will run and shout saying: "Don't pour that Beelzebub water on me". Now the people of the world fear mermaid, concoction. But mermaid, concoctions and juju fear the Holy Water and Oil.

LOVE DO YOU KNOW WHY YOUR BROTHER OR HUSBAND SAYS YOU SHOULD NOT CONTINUE IN BROTHERHOOD? THE REASON IS THAT HE HAS CERTAIN CHARMS FOR HIMSELF OR MAY BELONG TO ONE SECRET SOCIETY OR THE OTHER. BUT IMMEDIATELY YOU ENTER INTO HIS HOUSE, THE HOLY SPIRIT IN YOU WOULD RENDER ALL THE ELEMENTARY SPIRITS USELESS. Then, he will investigate the source of your power but cannot find it. Finally, he will give you the warning, not to come to his house again or there will be trouble. IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, HE WOULD CUT OFF YOUR HEAD WITH A KNIFE, BUT SINCE YOU ARE INDESTRUCTIBLE, HE CANNOT DO YOU ANYTHING. IT IS BECAUSE OF THE OVERWHELMING POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT HAS SUBDUED THE CHURCHES, GOVERNMENT AND EVERY INSTITUTION AND THE UNIVERSE, THAT PEOPLE ARE SHOUTING ON JESUS TO KILL OBU WHO HAS DESTROYED THEIR DIABOLICAL POWER AND HAS WITHDRAWN ALL THEIR MEMBERS TO HIMSELF. THEY MISTAKE HIM TO BE THAT DRAGON WHO WILL COME AND DECEIVE THE WORLD. BRETHREN, BROTHERHOOD HAS NO COMPARISON AND IT IS BEYOND HUMAN COMPREHENSION. THEREFORE, NO PERSON HAS THE POWER TO DO ANYTHING HERE. YOUR BOOK-KNOWLEDGE IS NOT REQUIRED FOR THE WORK OF THIS NEW KINGDOM OF GOD. IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT ALONE THAT DOES EVERYTHING IN THIS KINGDOM; AND SO, ALL THANKS, HONOR AND GLORY MUST BE ATTRIBUTED TO HIM ALONE. IT HAS BEEN REVEALED TO YOU THAT THE HOLY ANGELS OF GOD ARE THE MINISTERING SPIRITS IN THIS

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood NEW KINGDOM. YOU ARE NOT ALONE; WHEREVER YOU GO, THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD IS ALWAYS GUIDING YOU. AND IT IS FOR THIS REASON THAT PEOPLE OF THE WORLD SAY YOU ARE NOT ALONE. BECAUSE OF IGNORANCE, THEY CALL THIS ANGELS, WITCHES AND JUJU. BRETHREN, IT HAS BEEN WRITTEN ABOUT YOU THAT AT THIS LAST DISPENSATION OF THINGS, THE HOLY ANGELS OF GOD WILL MINISTER UNTO YOU. AND, THAT IS WHY THE WORLDLY PEOPLE SAY THAT YOU ALWAYS MOVE IN A GROUP. EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT SEE THESE ANGELS WITH YOUR NAKED EYES, THEY ATTEND TO YOU WHEREVER YOU GO TO. Brethren, think of this situation: when you were in the world, initiated into various cults, you were not protected, even when you wore talisman all over your bodies. Immediately you destroyed all your concoctions and talisman, and subjected yourself to the baptism in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, you became supreme and now you controlled all elementary spirits. 1 Corinthians 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. LOVE IS THE KEY TO HEAVEN, KEY TO WEALTH, POWER, GOOD HEALTH, AND EVERYTHING IN LIFE. ONCE YOU HAVE LOVE, YOU ARE FREE WHEREVER YOU MAY GO TO. LOVE IS THE BEGINNING AND END OF ALL WISDOM. I WILL NEVER TEACH YOU TO HAVE WISDOM, WEALTH, TO BE TRICKY AND CUNNING WITH PEOPLE, OR

LOVE TO POSSESS ANY OTHER UNGODLY VIRTUES, THAN TO PRACTICE LOVE TO ONE ANOTHER. WHETHER YOU ARE EDUCATED OR NOT, YOU HAVE CHILDREN OR NOT, POSSESS CARNAL WEALTH OR NOT, WHAT I WANT YOU TO DO IS GO AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER AND SPREAD THE GOSPEL TO OTHER BRETHREN TO DO LIKEWISE BECAUSE I KNOW THAT LOVE IS THE KEY TO ALL SUCCESSES. MANY OF YOU TAKE THIS TEACHING ON LOVE VERY LIGHTLY, BUT I TELL YOU THAT LOVE IS THE WAY TO ALL GOOD THINGS. HE WHO LACKS LOVE IS BLIND AND

you apart from the way of love: loving one another as Christ had loved mankind. I do not teach you new things outside love. I do not teach you history or genealogy. The whole world is undertaking studies in different fields in order to acquire power, peace and life.

DEAD. HE IS DEAF AND CANNOT HAVE OR KNOW ANY GOOD THING. HE WHO LACKS LOVE IS DUMB, HE IS LAME AND LIFELESS. There is no other way which can help

THE ONLY KEY TO POWER WHICH YOU KNOW AND WITNESS HERE IN BROTHERHOOD, IS THE LOVE OF GOD. THE WHOLE WORLD HAS COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT THE HOLY FATHER IS A PERFECT TEACHER AND THE OMNISCIENT GOD. WHERE ELSE DO I ACQUIRE THIS WISDOM AND POWER OTHER THAN IN LOVING ONE ANOTHER?

IF ONE IS IN DIFFICULTY AND CALLS ON YOUR NAME, HE

IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE, I AM THE ONLY LIVING SOUL; THE REST ARE DEAD AND CANNOT DO ANYTHING.

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood WILL NOT BE SAVED BECAUSE YOU ARE DEAD. BUT WHEN THE HOLY NAME OF THE FATHER IS PRONOUNCED, ALL POWERS HAVE TO SUBDUE TO HIM BECAUSE HE IS THE HIGHEST AUTHORITY. I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO SEES FAR AND WIDE BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL DEAD AND BLIND. I SEE THINGS FAR AND NEAR EQUALLY. AS WE ARE HERE NOW, I SEE AND HEAR ALL THAT THE FATHER IS DOING, WHICH NONE OF YOU CAN EXPERIENCE BECAUSE YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LOVE OF GOD IN YOU. YOU MISTAKENLY SAY THAT THE LEADER DOES NOT TRAVEL FROM PLACE TO PLACE, BUT I TELL YOU THAT HE TRAVELS FASTER THAN ANYONE OF YOU, AND IS PRESENT EVERYWHERE. IT IS ONLY YOU WHO REMAIN AT ONE PLACE. THE REASON WHY THE FATHER HAS SUCCEEDED IS HIS LOVE. I HAVE NO BUSINESS WITH THINGS OF THIS WORLD BECAUSE THEY LEAD MAN TO PERDITION. THEY CANNOT GIVE YOU PEACE AND LIFE. BUT IF YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER, YOU ARE FREE FROM ALL DIFFICULTIES. WHEN HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE LEADER FROWN HIS FACE, FIGHT OR QUARREL WITH PEOPLE? IN YOUR OWN CASE, YOU ARE PROVOKED AT THE LEAST OFFENSE, AND YOU REVENGE IMMEDIATELY. IF YOU DO THIS, WHERE LIES THAT LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER. YOU HAVE ALL SEEN THAT WHENEVER YOU OFFEND THE FATHER, INSTEAD OF SAYING ANYTHING HURTFUL, HE EMBRACES YOU, BLESSES YOU AND FILLS YOU WITH ALL GOOD THINGS. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BEAT YOUR CHILDREN. DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOU ARE BEATING CHRIST, AND ALSO CRUCIFYING HIM THE SECOND TIME ON THE

LOVE CROSS? WHY DO YOU HAVE TO PUNISH A THIEF WHO ROBS YOU OF YOUR PROPERTY. ARE THE MONEY AND CHILDREN NOT OWNED BY GOD? WHY DO YOU HAVE TO FIGHT AND STRUGGLE FOR WHAT BELONGS TO GOD IF YOU HAVE THE LOVE OF GOD IN YOU. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO ARREST A THIEF? DOES IT MEAN THAT THE FATHER DOES NOT SEE HIM, OR DOES IT MEAN YOU KNOW BETTER THAN GOD? It is said, "Except the Lord builds the house, they labour in vain that build it; except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain." (Psalm 127:1). In your case, you accept even to perish in order to acquire material wealth. You seek the devilish ways of protecting your lives. The simplest way before you is clear and easy to pass through. Love one another. IF YOU CENTER YOUR MINDS ON NOTHING ELSE BUT LOVE, YOUR EYES WILL BE OPENED, AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SEE GOD AND FEEL HIS PRESENCE AS THE FATHER IS DOING ALWAYS BECAUSE HE ABIDES IN THE LOVE OF GOD. SINCE YOU ARE ALL LONGING TO SEE GOD, HARDEN NOT YOUR HEARTS, AND LET GO THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD. WHAT DID OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST TELL YOU? John 15:8-11 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples; As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you; continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in His love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood remain in you, and that your joy might be full. IT DOES NOT REQUIRE CLAPPING OF HANDS, DRUMMING OR ANY OTHER THING, IT IS SIMPLY LOVING ONE ANOTHER. THIS MEANS THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE TO IMPUTE SINS ON PEOPLE; YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ENVY, BACKBITE, TELL LIES, FORNICATE, INDULGE IN ADULTERY OR DO ANYTHING WHICH CAN HARM YOUR NEIGHBOUR. YOU ONLY HAVE TO LOVE THEM. MONEY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LOVE. WHAT THEN DO YOU THINK IS THE INSTRUMENT USED IN PERFORMING THE WORK YOU SEE HERE IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR? Read 1 Cor 8:1-3. 1 Corinthians 8:1-3 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up but charity edifieth; And if any man thinks that he knoweth anything, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know; But if any man loves God, the same is known of him. IF YOU DO NOT POSSESS THIS LOVE OF GOD, HOW WILL HE KNOW YOU AS HIS CHILD? WHY DID GOD CALL CHRIST, HIS BELOVED SON. THE REASON WAS THAT HE LOVED GOD WITH ALL HIS MIGHT AND SPIRIT. In your own case, you want money, wife, husband, wealth and all the material things in this world. What were the teachings of Christ based on? What is the new covenant that He made with man? John 15:12-17 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you; Greater love hath no man than this,

LOVE that a man lay down his life for his friends; Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you; Henceforth, I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his Lord doeth: But I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. Ye have not chosen me but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you; These things I command you, that ye love one another. What else did our Lord Jesus Christ preach than loving one another? Is that love now found in you? DO YOU NOT SEE LOVE WORKING IN THE LEADER? IS HE NOT DOING IT PRACTICALLY TO YOU DAILY AT ALL TIMES? LOVE IS PEACE, POWER, PATIENCE, ENDURANCE, LIFE, TRUTH. IT IS ALL GOOD VIRTUES. IT IS THE EVERLASTING WEALTH FROM GOD. WHERE THE LOVE OF GOD ABOUNDS, THERE IS NO DISCRIMINATION IN A SOCIETY. THE FATHER IS LOVE. THAT IS WHY WHEN A WOEFUL SINNER COMES BEFORE HIM, INSTEAD OF REJECTING HIM, HE EMBRACES, BLESSES AND OFFERS FEAST TO HIM OR HER. THE MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, IS THAT HE FORGIVES ALL YOUR SINS. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF BLESSING THE SINNERS BY THE FATHER. DO YOU REGARD IT AS A FOOLISH ACT OR SOMETHING NOT WORTH DOING? Romans 12:17-21 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men; If it be possible, as much as

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood lieth in you, live peaceably with all men; Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord; Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head; Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. WHO IS RIGHT AND WHO IS WRONG? ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES, READ FROM THAT PASSAGE, IS IT I OR YOU? YOU PUNISH AND TORTURE PEOPLE WHO OFFEND YOU. IS IT YOU WHO PUNISHES, WHO DOES THE RIGHT THING; OR THE FATHER WHO BLESSES? YOU ARE ALL PRACTICING THE LAW OF MOSES WHICH SAID, "AN EYE FOR AN EYE, AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH".(EX 21:24). THIS IS VENGEANCE. SOME OF YOU PRETEND TO BE GOOD BEFORE THE FATHER, BUT THE MOMENT YOU DO NOT SEE THE FATHER PHYSICALLY, YOU FIGHT, ABUSE AND QUARREL WITH EACH OTHER. SUCH ACTIONS DO NOT GIVE GLORY TO GOD. IF YOU FIGHT AGAINST AN EVIL DOER, THEN I ASK, "IS THAT THE WORK OF GOD?" Matthew 5:39-END But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil; but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also; And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have the cloak also; And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain; Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not thou away; Ye have heard

LOVE that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy; But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that

curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may

THE POWER EXISTING HERE IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR IS THE POWER OF LOVE.

be the children of your Father which is in heaven; for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust; For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only; what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so; Be ye therefore perfect; even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. HOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT PASSAGE? MY DEEDS AND YOURS, WHICH ONES ARE AGREEABLE WITH THE TEACHINGS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST? SOME OF YOU SAY THAT GOD LOVES THE LEADER MORE THAN YOU. THE QUESTION IS WHETHER YOU HAVE THE LOVE OF GOD IN YOU. HAVE YOU COMPLIED WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS OF GOD, MOSTLY TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER? IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN PRACTICING THE WORD OF GOD, START RIGHT NOW TO PRACTICE IT, AND YOU WILL BE LOVED.

IF SOMEBODY ABUSES THE LEADER, I REGARD HIM AS A FOOL. IF YOU FIGHT WITH THE LEADER, YOU ARE A FOOL. WHY DO YOU NOT FOLLOW ME. I WHO AM ON TOP OF A PALM TREE SAY THE PALM IS NOT RIPE, BUT YOU WHO STAND ON THE GROUND SAY IT IS RIPE. WHO IS CORRECT? THERE IS A SAYING THAT WHEN ONE SEES THE

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood CORPSE OF A DEAD MAN, TEARS WOULD FLOW FROM HIS EYES. HAVE YOU NOT SEEN THE LOVE THAT THE HOLY FATHER HAS FOR PEOPLE OF ALL RACES. HE LOVES EVERYBODY EQUALLY. WHATEVER HE DOES OR GIVES, HE DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE BETWEEN THE BLACKS AND WHITES. HE RECEIVES AND TREATS THE LAWYERS, DOCTORS THE SAME WAY HE TREATS THE POOR OR EVEN THE SMALL CHILD. BUT YOU SEGREGATE AND PRACTICE CLASS DISTINCTION. THERE IS NOTHING WHICH PUZZLES THE WHOLE WORLD LIKE THE EXISTENCE OF BROTHERHOOD. IF YOU TELL THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD THAT THE HOLY FATHER IN BROTHERHOOD IS NOT A MEMBER OF ANY SECRET SOCIETY, THEY WILL REGARD YOU AS A FOOLISH PERSON BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THAT THE LEADER IS THE HEAD OF ALL THE SECRET SOCIETIES. THE PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY THAT THE LEADER IS VERY POWERFUL. I THEN ASK: WHERE IS THE POWER HIDING? IS IT UNDER MY ROBE, IN THE HOLY BIBLE, HYMN BOOK? WHERE LIES THE POWER? WHEN I HEAR THIS, I AM

BECAUSE I HAVE NO ALTAR, I DO NOT SPEAK IN TONGUES. I AM JUST AN

ALWAYS AMUSED ORDINARY MAN. CAN YOU TELL ME IF THERE IS ANYBODY, NO MATTER HIS OR HER STATUS, WHO COMES BEFORE THE HOLY FATHER AND WILL NOT PROSTRATE AND WORSHIP HIM? WHAT DO I USE ON THEM? IS IT CANE, OR GUN? IT IS NOTHING BUT LOVE. In your own case, you boast of your high degrees, your educational qualification or your personality as chief. What I see in you is that you boast in chariots and horses.

LOVE You boast that your parents are wealthy, your relations are in high institutions of learning. BUT WHO HAVE EVER BOASTED OF HAVING LOVE? LOVE DOES NOT CREATE DIVISION NOR BOAST OF ANYTHING CARNAL. THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE FATHER AND MAN. ONE OF THE ATTRIBUTES OF GOD IS SIMPLICITY OF LIFE.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up; Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things; Charity never faileth; but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT THIS PORTION HAS PROJECTED THE HOLY FATHER AS A SYMBOL OF LOVE, AND ON THE OTHER HAND, HAS DISQUALIFIED YOU? HE IS LOVING, PEACEFUL, PATIENT, HUMBLE, MEEK AND MERCIFUL. HE HAS ALL THE VIRTUES OF GOD. HE IS GOD. IT IS WRITTEN IN THE SCRIPTURES THAT PROPHECIES, TONGUES AND KNOWLEDGE WILL ALL PASS AWAY BUT THE LOVE OF GOD WILL ABIDE FOREVER. WHY THEN DO YOU NOT IMBIBE THIS LOVE INTO YOUR HEART. LACK OF LOVE IS THE CAUSE OF THE DOWNFALL OF BOTH WHITES AND BLACKS. LOVE IS THAT REJECTED

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood STONE WHICH HAS BECOME THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE FOR ALL BUILDERS. IF A PERSON SHOULD ASK YOU WHAT SHOULD BE DONE IN ORDER TO BESTOW PEACE IN NIGERIA, TELL HIM BOLDLY THAT IT IS ONLY THROUGH LOVING ONE ANOTHER. NEVER SEARCH FOR PEACE IN THE UNIVERSITIES, SPACE, MOON, SUN OR AT ANY PLACE. YOU WILL NOT FIND IT IN THESE PLACES, EXCEPT, THROUGH OBEYING THE INSTRUCTIONS OF GOD WHICH IS TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER. 1 Corinthians 1:19-21 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent; Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For after that in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. Brethren, have you heard that? Have these words not fulfilled in you this last generation? Have you all not become experts in different fields? The Word of God has said that there is no stone which will stay on top of the other that will not be rolled.(MARK 13:1-2). The stone referred hereto is not an ordinary stone but human beings. NOW ALL THE CHURCHES IN THE CHRISTENDOM ARE IN SERIOUS CONFUSION. THE HOLY FATHER IS NOW EXTRACTING HIS SHEEP FROM AMONGST THE WOLVES. John 2:15-17 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he

LOVE drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables; And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise; And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up. Have you heard what is read to you, Brethren? Now the desire of your hearts is the lust of the flesh, the love of material things of this world - money, children, wife, husband, wealth and all carnal things. This is why you lack the love of God which is a good gift. It is because you do not have the love of God that sickness, poverty, suffering, tribulations and afflictions come to mankind. BRETHREN, NO MATTER THE CONDITION OF YOUR SICKNESS, POVERTY, OR AFFLICTIONS, WHEN YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER, THERE WILL BE NO PROBLEM IN YOUR WAYS. THIS IS THE HIDDEN POWER IN BROTHERHOOD. Matthew 5:22-24 But I say unto you, that whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgement; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council; but whosoever shall say, Thou fool; shall be in danger of hell fire; Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar and rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. Brethren, have you heard that? If you have had the love of God in you, would you have said woe to your brother? Would you fornicate or adulterate yourself?

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood Would you have said, "This or that man is bad? Would you count sins on other people? Would you be angry with your brethren? Romans 13:8-10 Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law; For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. If the love of God is in you, would you sue your brother to court and cause him to be imprisoned? If you had the love of God, you would not hate, kill or commit any sin against your brethren. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. THAT GLORY WHICH GOD TOOK AWAY FROM ADAM HAS NOW BEEN RESTORED TO MAN. FROM THE BEGINNING, GOD MADE IT A PRINCIPLE THAT ALL THE ANGELS IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH SHOULD SERVE MAN. THEREFORE, DO NOT DOUBT WHATEVER YOU SEE BECAUSE ALL THOSE THINGS YOU HAVE BEEN READING FROM THE BIBLE HAVE NOW COME TO MANIFESTATION. ALL THE THINGS WHICH YOU CALL MERMAID, DEMON, WITCHCRAFT ARE NOT IN EXISTENCE. WHAT REALLY EXIST ARE THE ANGELS, OF GOD, AND ARE NOW IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD. RIGHT NOW, PEOPLE ARE SHOUTING, WAILING, LAMENTING ALL OVER THE WORLD. THESE ARE MERE

LOVE INTRODUCTION TO THE ACTUAL SUFFERING TO COME. I AM PLEADING WITH YOU TO FORSAKE ALL MANNERS OF SIN, BUT YOU REFUSE. WHEN THE ANGELS START THEIR OPERATION, ALL SINNERS WILL RECEIVE THEIR DUE REWARD. Read Revelation 9:1-21 to see what will soon happen in the world. 1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. 3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. 5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. 6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. 7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. 8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood were as the teeth of lions. 9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. 10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. 11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. 12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. 13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. 16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. 17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. 18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

LOVE 19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. 20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: 21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. The war of Armageddon is a spiritual warfare, and you will never see the fighters with your naked eyes. Therefore, it is incumbent upon everyone of you to abstain from all appearances of evil so that you may not be a victim. WHEN THE ANGELS BEGIN THEIR OPERATION, AND YOU SHOUT ON LEADER O.O. OBU, I AM NOT CONCERNED BECAUSE I WILL NOT LEAD THE BATTLE. THIS IS THE TIME OF JUDGEMENT. IF YOU PRACTICE RIGHTEOUSNESS, YOU WILL RECEIVE A RIGHTEOUS REWARD; BUT IF YOU CONTINUE TO SIN, YOU RECEIVE THE WAGES OF SIN. Hebrews 1:5-6 For unto which of the angels said he at any time: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he said, And let all the angels of God worship him. IT WAS THE WILL OF GOD THAT ANGELS SHOULD SERVE MAN, BUT WHEN ADAM FELL FROM HIS GLORY, MAN LOST THAT GLORIOUS POSITION. AFTER THE

Love Is The Hidden Power In Brotherhood DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, MAN HAS BEEN RE-INSTATED INTO THAT GLORIOUS POSITION. Read Revelation 11:15-18. And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. If it is because of your disobedience, you continue to sin, you will receive the punishment immediately, and if you do that which is good, you will also receive the reward at the same time. It is for these reasons that I plead with you to refrain from sin in order to receive a righteous reward and eternal life.

IT IS THE PROMISE OF GOD TO GIVE EVERLASTING LIFE TO ALL THOSE WHO FEAR AND HONOR HIS NAME IN THIS LAST GENERATION.
Read Revelation 21:3-5. And I 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,

LOVE and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall 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. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me,

WRITE: FOR THESE WORDS ARE TRUE AND FAITHFUL.

If Adam had not disobeyed God, there would have been no death, poverty, sickness and the storms of life. The passage read out to you reveals that death shall be no more, human beings will have nothing to fear. God will wipe away all those things which make human beings unhappy. Brethren, that is what is going to happen in this generation; and some of you will be eye-witnesses to what I am telling you. In those days, people will look for death, sickness, pains, hunger and they will flee from them. Before you are sure of eternal life, you have to consider very seriously what is recorded in: Revelation 21:8 But the fearful and unbelieving and the abominable, and murderers and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. I will not take you further. My peace and blessings abide with you now and forever more. Amen.
