WHAT IS BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR

FIRST LESSON: JOHN 20:7

And the handkerchief, which had been about his head, not lying with the linen cloths,

but folded in a place by itself.

SECOND LESSON: EPHESIANS 4:4-6

One body and one spirit, even as you were called in one hope of your calling; one

Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and

throughout all, in us all.

GOLDEN TEXT: 1 PETER 2:17

Honor all men; love the brotherhood; fear God; honor the king.

Dear brethren, we want to reveal an important thing to you. The three lessons will

give you an idea of what we are going to reveal. So please, be attentive. You may say

that you know what Brotherhood means, but we know from our hearts, that no one

knows the meaning. People have interpreted different ways. It is as a result of these

misconceptions that we have decided to take this opportunity to preach this gospel.

Therefore, today shall go down in history as a great day: a day of revelation; a day

Brotherhood will be revealed to the world. Professors of history from different

universities have from time to time been coming to tell us the Origin of Brotherhood.

We have in each case laughed at the limitation of their wisdom and have asked them

to go and love one another. Anyone on the surface of the globe who tells you that he

has known the foundation of Brotherhood does not tell the truth.

In this Gospel, we are not including t he words, "Cross and star," but Brotherhood

only. Search yourselves, you who say, that you are not Brotherhood, whether you are

not Brotherhood. What is the meaning of Brotherhood? It means God, Christ and the

Angels. It means the people of this world, the fishes in the water, the trees in the

forests, the grass that grows in the fields, and the ground we walk on. Brotherhood

means the sky, the Wind, the Moon, the Sun, the Stars. It means the worms, the ants,

and the birds. Brotherhood means every four -footed animal and every creeping thing.

In short, Brotherhood means everything created by God. Brotherhood means oneness.

God and everything created by him put together are Brotherhood.

Who owns Brotherhood? It is God who owns, rules and leads it. But Christ t akes

charge. What are the duties of Angels? They are servants in Brotherhood. What are the

duties of people? They too, are workers in Brotherhood. The Stars, Sun, Moon, Fishes,

Animals, Birds, etc., are all workers in Brotherhood.

~ 1 ~

BROTHERHOOD MEANS THE WORD OF GOD

Brotherhood means oneness. It is the word it is the truth. What is the word? It is God,

Christ, human beings; it is everything in the world. Brotherhood is the word of God.

Why is it that people of this world do not know what Brotherhood means? It is

because it is not given to them to understand. Brotherhood is not a Society it is not a

Cult. It is the Spirit of Love.

I am Brotherhood you are Brotherhood. You do not need to say, "I want to

be Brotherhood." You are Brotherhood whether you like it o r not. Everybody is

Brotherhood. To those who want to know its origin, we say Brotherhood has no origin.

It has no beginning it has no end. Except a person wants to know the origin of God.

Brotherhood was not founded by Christ, angels or man. It was founded by God

himself. God the founder is Love. It is truth; it is good manners, mercy, and patience.

It is humility, meekness, and unity. It is oneness; it is one thought, one mind, one

spirit, one faith, and one hope. There is no division in Brotherhood. From the smallest

child in the cradle to the oldest man: from the smallest village to the biggest city: all

countries in the world put together are Brotherhood.

WHAT IS CROSS

Anybody who wants to follow me, but does not want to take up the Cross after me,

cannot be my follower (Christ). Brethren, our Gospel is about the CROSS. After that

celebrated Gospel on what is Brotherhood during the Pentecostal Convention, many

had thought the Gospels on the Cross and Star would follow. But since my Father did

not give the signal throughout the convention, I could not do anything more than to

allow his will to prevail. This afternoon brethren, it has pleased him and he has given

the signal that I should do so. Therefore, I shall be failing in my duty as his

mouthpiece, if I should fail to give you the Gospel on the 'Cross' today.

Some think to give alms means carrying the Cross: others think that to heal the sick by

praying, means carrying the Cross. Others think to pray three times a day means

carrying the Cross; yet another class of people thinks that to pay tithe, Freewill

Offering and Charity means carrying the Cross. The Cross -has been made into

different forms. Some hang it around their necks; some hang it on their walls. Christ

says we should carry the Cross. Do all t hose things mean you are carrying the Cross?

We all know that Christ fell down with the Cross -as he was carrying it to Calvary.

Does carrying the Cross mean that a piece of wood has to be carried? Without the

Cross, the world could not have been saved. The Cross-is light and it can also be

heavy. For the world to be in perfect peace, each of us must carry the Cross.

By what means does one convert a smoker, a snuffer, a fornicator, a thief, a murderer,

a back-stabber, or a liar? Is it by carrying the Cross? If we all should decide today to

take up the Cross, the sins of the world would vanish immediately. What is the Cross?

Is it vision and prophecy? Or building houses for people: giving food to people,

~ 2 ~

buying clothes for them? If Jesus had only healed and pr ophesied without carrying the Cross, his work could come to nothing.

IT MEANS BEARING ONE ANOTHER'S BURDEN

If you buy a vehicle for brethren to go on ministry works so that their job is less

difficult, you are not carrying the Cross. The Cross -is not as immense as you might

have imagined. It is very small, it is light, but it is also very heavy. What is the Cross?

Cross means bearing another's burdens without complaining: tolerating all sinners,

murderers, thieves, and back-stabbers, etc. If one accuses you falsely, yet you stand

firm with Christ: if you are spat on, jeered at, disgraced without any cause: if you are

insulted without just cause, yet you tolerate such a person wholeheartedly, you are

carrying the Cross. If you are informed that someone has planned to kill you and you

will not run away, then you are carrying the Cross. To carry the Cross does not cost

anything. To be able to carry the Cross, you must resign yourself completely to God.

You must be loving, humble, you must have patience, you must be forgiving, you

must see another person as being better than yourself, you must not be envious. If

Jesus did not possess these qualities, he could not have carried the Cross. If

you remain with a cunning man without hurting his feelings for being crafty , if you

can stay with a notorious liar, happily, without stirring up his anger when he tells you

a lie, when one persecutes you falsely and seeks to destroy your life, yet you tolerate

him, you are carrying the real Cross.

WHAT IS STAR? THE GREAT LIGHT

You have read in the scriptures about a secret name. That secret name is the Star. The

Star is Christ. The Star is the glory of God and it is the glory of Christ. The Star is the

revelation of God. It is the hidden name that no one knows. The Star indicates the

reign and the glory of Christ. The Star here does not refer to the constellation above.

The Star means the brightness of God and the power of his reign. The Star is the peace

of the Almighty God that governs the universe. There is no other Monarch othe r than

Christ, the Star. From his birth, the great light has been shinning over Christ's head. It

is the only light that shines the whole world over. Therefore, it is not enough for

someone to be a Brotherhood only, or to carry the Cross alone, but to be worthy

children of the Kingdom. To be worthy children of the Kingdom of God we must be of

the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. The Star indicates those who will rule and are

ruling with him. The Star is the ruler of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. He is

Christ, and Christ did not come alone. The Father is here, the Son is here and the Holy

Spirit is here. He is in the Father, Christ is the City of which we are told. No light is

needed, because he shines there. The father and the son shine to eternit y.

The name of the morning Star is known to Christ alone and is not known to human

beings. We worship the Star, which is Christ. The Cross -we must carry. The Star is the

glory that reigns over the world. In his first coming, Christ passed through pain and

tribulation. The primary aim of his second coming is to rule in glory. It is the glory

~ 3 ~

indicative of his reign. He is coming to take up his kingship and rule. His kingdom is here on Earth. The Star means Christ, his glory and that of his father. He has arr ived

with the father to live with men on earth. He comes in glory to rule the whole world.

He has not come to serve, suffer and die, as he did in his first coming. Each time the

almighty father sends his Son out; he gives him a new name. His disciples were also

given different names. When he departed from the world, his disciples were

called Christians. When he worked among men, he was called Jesus. He asked his

disciples, "Who do men say that I am?" He was told; he was the Christ, the Son of God.

He warned them not to call him that name and requested them to keep it a secret to

themselves. God knows best why his Son should be given a new name each time he is

sent to earth. When you hear the name Christ, you cannot say who the Anointed One

is.

When he is called Star, you cannot distinguish one from the other. The Star radiates

light. His glory and his reign go into eternity. Christ is the light, he is Jehovah God.

Imagine how sweet the name sounds in a believer's ear. It is the light that blinded Saul

on his way to Damascus. Christ's name is only known to the father and the Son.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE BEGINNING OF JUDGMENT

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: EPHESIANS 4:25

"Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are

members one of another."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: COLOSSIANS 3:9

"Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have not put off the old man with his deeds."

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 5:34-37

"But I say unto you, swear not at all, neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: Nor by

the earth for it is his footstool: Neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great king.

Neither shalt thou swear by thy hand, because thou canst not make one hair white or

black. But let your communication be Yea, yea; Nay, nay; for whatsoever is more than

these cometh of evil."

REFRAIN FROM FALSEHOOD

Dear brethren, this is the time of judgment. As you have read from the Bible that

judgment will start from the church, you should desist from the habit of confessing

your sins now, and going back to indulge in them the next minute. I have warned you

against falsehood, because of its consequences.

It is rather awful that the people of the world have made falsehood the order of the

day. To this end, everybody now sees falsehood as the societal norm and the only way

for survival. But here only the truth is needed. Therefore, as a child of God, you

should not lie to your fellow brethren.

If you have never practiced any gospel since you came into this kingdom, do not fail

to practice this particular one. If you practice falsehood, you have invariably subjected

yourself to judgment. Note that I am not saying that if you practice only the truth that

makes you righteous. Rather I am saying that the truth is good for you as, it is the

basic requirement for one to escape judgment. For you to qualify for this kingdom of

God, you should desist from falsehood. Let your yea be yea and your nay be nay.

James 5:12.

I am disclosing this secret to you because you are meant for this kingdom. You should

know that truth is needed in this kingdom because Brotherhood is the truth.

Therefore, brethren, do not be afraid of anything or anybody, speak the truth, for the

truth will save you. You should know that the reigning force in Brotherhood is the

truth. If you want to belong here, you have to eschew falsehood in your life. Hold fast

to the truth for it is more profitable to practice truthfulness than falsehood. I want you

to realize that no liar shall be saved.

~ 5 ~

As falsehood crumbles, liars will also perish. Anything planted on falseh ood shall perish, while those planted on the truth shall live on. This explains why Christ said

that only those things planted by the Father shall stand. Other than this, all other

things will be up-rooted. Matthew 15:13.

God is truth and His words are true. Even Our Lord Jesus Christ said:" I have many

things to tell you but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when the Holy Spirit of truth

shall come He shall guide you into all truth. John 16:12-13. Today the Holy Spirit of

truth is doing just that. Have you not felt the impact of His leadership? For you to

benefit from the good things which His divine leadership has brought, you have to

practice the truth. All the things you see in the world today are the handiwork of God

and they were caused to come into being by the truth. Except you allow the spirit of

truth to lead you, you are not a party to His leadership.

I reiterate here that this is the time of judgment, and that anyone who desires

salvation must identify with the truth. Remember what Our Lord Jes us Christ said:

"For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that

they which see might be made blind. And some of the Pharisees which were with him

heard these words, and said unto him, are we also blind? Jesus said unto them, if ye

were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, we see; therefore your sin

remaineth." John 9:39-41.

The nagging question is how come you claim to be righteous when you have not

repented of your sins? Recall what happened when a Publican a nd a Pharisee went out

to pray. The Pharisee claimed righteousness, recounting his goodness to the poor and

needy. But the Publican on the other hand accepted that he was a sinner and pleaded

for forgiveness. The prayer of the publican was answered whereas that of the Pharisee

was not. This is why it is stated in the scriptures that anyone who confesses his sins

will be forgiven and the person shall be saved. But anyone who does not confess his

sins shall be condemned. If we confess our sins, He will forgiv e us because He is

truthful and He will cleanse us of our unrighteousness. But if we say that we have not

committed any sins, it means we have made Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

1st.John 1:9- 10.

Learn from the experience of the two robbers that were nailed to the cross on either

side of Our Lord Jesus Christ. One of them had his sins forgiven because he saw

himself as a sinner; whereas the other thief died with his sins because of arrogance.

Recall that Our Lord Jesus Christ had commanded His disciples saying, Go ye into the

world and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall

be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mark 16:15-16.

Today, we have not deviated from that term of reference because we a re still

preaching the same gospel of repentance. The truth here is that you must confess your

sins and repent of them otherwise you cannot have salvation. Our Lord Jesus Christ

~ 6 ~

was the first person who practiced forgiveness of sins. On the cross of Calvar y, and in great pains, as blood was oozing out of His wounded side, He pronounced," It is

finished." There is no doubt that we are all sinners. After all, we were conceived in sin

and delivered in iniquities. And so anyone who does not see himself as a sin ner and

plead for forgiveness is being arrogant; and such a person is due for damnation. And

for such a person to see himself as righteous is a demonstration of falsehood, to say

the least.

The sacrifice of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, thou would not

despise Psalm 51:17. And if you do not show a repentant heart over your sins, you are

done for. Many have forced themselves into condemnation by claiming that they know

God and that they have always been in close communion with God before they were

born into this kingdom. But I want to assure you that without a repentant heart you

cannot know God; let alone see Him.

Any sin that is not confessed cannot be forgiven. Even though we are saved by the

grace of God, we owe God the responsibility of confessing our sins and repenting of

them in appreciation of his love, mercy and kindness towards us. But if you blink at

God and claim that you have been saved as a result of your good works, you shall be

damned. God does not cherish arrogance and ingratitude, but He is glorified in

humility. All the hypocrites in the world shall be ruined, while the humble shall be

glorified in the end.

God has not come into this world for fun. His mission is to judge every man according

to his deeds. Look inwardly into yourself and if you find any trace of sin, you should

confess and repent of them, else you will be damned. But if you have confessed and

repented of all your sins you are saved.

Do not keep this information to yourself only, spread it to all the i nhabitants of the

world. Inform them that except they confess and repent of their evil ways, they shall

be damned. And that any sin which is not confessed amounts to falsehood. Also tell

them that except they refrain from falsehood, they cannot inherit the new heaven and

the new earth.

John had his head chopped off as a result of truth. He told King Herod in plain words

that it was not proper for him to have taken his brother's wife for marriage. This

hatred culminated in John the Baptist being beheaded. An d his head was given to the

girl (Herod’s daughter) for dancing dexterously to please King Herod on his birthday.

Read Matthew 14. This happened because Herod had to keep his word that whatever

the girl wanted he would give to her. And so, eventually, when she demanded for the

head of John the Baptist, he could not help but oblige the girl's request.

~ 7 ~

It is very common to hear people say they want to die with Christ. What does this mean when people cannot even speak the simple truth? Recall what happened

between Christ and His brethren. Because His brethren were not aware that the Jews

were planning to kill Christ, they said to Him when the Jewish feast of tabernacle was

at hand that: Depart hence, and go into Judea that thy disciples also may see the works

that thou doest. For there is no man that doeth anything in secret, and he himself

seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things show thyself to the world. Neither

did his brethren nor the people there believe in Him. Then Jesus said to them: " My

time is not yet come: but your time is always ready." (John 7:6).The world cannot hate

you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil."

So, when His time was up, He went to the gathering of the Jews. While He was there

preaching to the people, those hired to kill him were already waiting. After he finished

preaching the hired assassins were set to strike but controversy arose among them.

Some said He was a good man, others said he was not. Because of such controversy

nothing was done to him. This was so because His time was not yet up. You should try

to speak the truth at all times and accept your fault when you go wrong. Always speak

the truth in all situations irrespective of how you are affected. By so doing, you are

justified.

If you are asked to state the purpose for which you are called into this kingdom, you

would not be able to give the answer. In the same vein, if you are asked why your

brothers at home are not called into this kingdom, you would not be able to give the

correct answer. And your brothers who are not here do not know why they are not

here either. But it pleases me to inform you that, it is truth that led you into this

kingdom, and those who cannot come in here are prevented by falsehood. They claim

to be righteous whereas they are not. But since you have accepted to be a sinner and

beg for forgiveness, you are called into this kingdom for salvation. Your brothers

outside are kept for condemnation.

Anyone who claims to be righteous has invariably made Our Lor d Jesus Christ a liar.

Hence, such a person has no share in the precious blood and good tidings of Our Lord

Jesus Christ. Because of that, such a person is already condemned. But anyone who

confesses his sins, begs God for forgiveness and accepts that Chri st died for the sins of

mankind, is saved. This explains why we are indebted to Christ. He died for our sins

and so, it is incumbent on us to tell the veritable truth at all times. This shows that we

have tasted the love of Christ who died for our sake. Without Christ we would not

have been saved. None could have saved himself. Therefore, we are indebted to Christ

for leading us to salvation gratis. We all have been redeemed from sinfulness and

falsehood which mark the kingdom of the devil and we are made r ighteous and true

and this represents the kingdom of God.

~ 8 ~

Recall what happened to Ananias and his wife Saphira for telling lies to the Apostles of God, Read Acts 5:1-10. Now the question is, was it not falsehood that killed Ananias

and his wife, Saphira as stated in the text? That is exactly what happens in the world

today. It is not uncommon to see the people of the world telling lies in order to

implicate others and exonerate themselves. But my message to you is that you should

always speak the truth because it is the only source of salvation. Read the first lesson

again.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: EPHESIANS 4:25

Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are

members one of another.

BROTHERHOOD IS TRUTH

Beloved, have you now realized that the world does not love the truth, but

Brotherhood has brought the truth into the world? So, stand firm by speaking the

truth at all times. People complain that the world does not like Brotherhood of the

Cross and Star. But I am telling you that the world likes Brotherhood but hates the

truth in the fold. The world and the affairs of the world are founded on falsehood,

hence, you see that while a particular government lasts in office, people will not

complain of bad governance and embezzlement; but immediately such government is

sacked, they would complain of its ills.

The question is where were they during the tenure of that government? Here in

Brotherhood, it is imperative that you tell the truth and keep all your promises.

Always ensure that it is only the truth that proceeds out of your mouth. Recall that

when the Jews and Pharisees planned to tempt Our Lord Jesus Christ, they brought

before Him a woman who was caught in adultery. They asked Him what should be

done to her, since He condemned stoning to death as a form of capital punishment for

sinners, contrary to the laws of Moses. Christ immediately knew their thought and

said to them: "He that is without sin among you let h im first cast a stone at her.” John 8:7.

Soon they all realized that they were sinners, hence nobody could first stone the

woman. Then Christ lifted up his eyes and saw none but the woman left alone and he

said to her, “where are those thine accusers? She said, no man, lord, and our lord Jesus

Christ said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go and sin no more. John 8:11

But now, nobody accepts his faults nor see himself as a sinner. That is why if a woman

whom you had committed adultery with is brought before you for judgment, as a

judge, if you condemn her and the woman is not bold enough to say you were the one

who had slept with her, it means you are covered with falsehood. Have you now

realized how falsehood and sinfulness are at work in the world?

~ 9 ~

THE TREE OF GOOD AND EVIL

The tree of good and evil you may have read about in the Bible, is nothing but truth

and falsehood. While the tree of good stands for Christ, the tree of evil represents

Satan. Our Lord Jesus Christ was the embodiment of truth. That was why when He

had audience with His disciples and someone approached Him and told Him that His

mother and brethren were waiting for Him somewhere, He replied:" My mother and

my brethren are those who hear the word of God and do it." Luke 8:21.

Have you ever seen such truth in any part of this world? Who in the whole world

understands the meaning of that statement? And who in the whole world is ready to

speak such truth or practice it? Our Lord Jesus Christ is truth, hence everything He

did was according to the directives of the Father. This was why Simon asked Him to

show them the Father, and He replied thus:" Have I been so long time with you, and

yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father;

Believest thou not that I am in the Father and in me? The words that I speak unto you I

speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the work. Believe me

that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works'

sake." John 14:9-11.

You should always bear in mind that when you came into this world , you did not have

even teeth, not to talk about things like land, money, children, houses, land, money,

clothes, etc. But is it true that you can rely on these things? Did you come into world

with any of these things? God is the sole owner of all things. So stop claiming

ownership of anything here on earth. Often, you pray God to bless you with a wife,

husband, wisdom, money, children, houses, cars, and other earthly things. And after

being blessed with these things you forget God completely and turn round to claim

ownership. Are you a truthful person in this case? The word is God and it is God that

speaks through you.

Also, do not claim responsibility for anything. After all God does all things including

speeches. And this goes to support the statement of Christ thus:" I can of my own self

do nothing: as I hear I judge: and my judgment is just because I seek not mine own

will but the will of the Father which hath sent me. (John 5:30). Do not ever claim to

have done anything. Both the word you utter and the things you claim to do are from

God. You are a mere channel through which these things are made possible. If you lay

claim to these things, it an act of falsehood. You should tell the truth at all times so

that all your affairs may be directed by God.

~ 10 ~

WE ARE THE PRODUCTS OF GOD

We are God's husbandry, God uses man to carry out His divine duties. Thus man

cannot live without the assistance of God. If in the past people were ignorant of the

right thing, they should amend their ways and ensure that the truth i s told at all times,

for the owner of the vineyard is truthful. Many people often claim to see ghost,

mermaid, witches, wizards, juju, and other vain things, against the teachings of God.

Many also erroneously attribute the blessing God has bestowed on the m to juju, witch

doctors, or soothsayers. But is it true that the blessing is from any of these things you

trust in? Is your action not a denial of God's presence?

You should recall Pilate's question to Christ during His trial. Pilate asked Him thus:

"Speakest thou not unto me? Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and I

have power to release thee? Jesus answered and said to him, "Thou couldest have no

power at all against me except it were given thee from above." John 19:10-11.

Right now, do not attribute death, birth, prosperity, poverty, failure, success, or

anything that happens in the world to man, ghost, mermaid, witches, or juju. You

attribute your plight to evil forces because you are deeply in love with falsehood. To

you God has no role to play in your life. Note that it is falsehood that has made you to

glorify these things that do not exist. Take note of this gospel for it is out of great love

that the Father is pleased to impart it to you today. Read the Second Bible Lesson

again:

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: COLOSSIANS 3:9

"Lie not to one another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds."

FLEE FROM FALSEHOOD

The biblical snake you may have heard of is nothing but falsehood. The snake is the

most crafty and deceitful animal. Craftiness and deceit are the marks of the old man,

which according to the second lesson, was removed. So, make sure that at all times,

you speak the truth for the truth shall set you free.

The only acceptable order in this kingdom is speaking the truth at all times, not

minding the situation you find yourself in. No matter the number of churches in a

particular street, they are of no use because they operate under the influence of

falsehood and ungodliness. The only place you can witness truth is in Brotherhood of

the Cross and Star. There is absolutely no truth in all the churches of the world. No

matter their high sounding names, none is directed by the truth. It was because of this

same hypocritical attitude that Our Lord Jesus Christ said, "The people of the world

worship me with their lips but their hearts are far from me."

~ 11 ~

It is for this reason that you see many people on the street shouting the name of Jesus where as their hearts are far away from Christ. Even while they continue to shout on

this same name of Jesus, they kill, maim and plan all sorts of evil against their fellow

men. There is none who may be rightly called a man of God. Some of you in this

kingdom should count yourselves lucky because when you got baptized into the fold,

you had not gone far into the ways of the world. This is why I always say that you are

the luckiest people.

The people of this world are ignorant. This is why they continue to uphold the

traditions of their forefathers. They sacrifice to idols and observe other rituals.

Right from today, you are charged not to live in falsehood. Do not tell lies to your

fellow man. Make sure you put off the image of the old man with his deceits. Always

speak the truth. During the ministry work of Our Lord Jesus Christ, He openly

declared that He was not the doer of anything but the Father; that on His own He

could do nothing at all. He was merely carrying out the Father's directives. And

always, He would testify that He was sent by the Father. And I have been telling you

that I do not exist but Jehovah God and His Christ. It is the Father who is at work. I

cannot speak, because I do not have anything to say of my own. Jehovah God with His

Christ are responsible for all things. He is truth, life, peace, and everything good. He

bears witness of His glory.

THE KINGDOM OF GOD

This kingdom is not from this world, it is neither from the sun nor from the moon but

directly from heaven. When you claim to be among those who started brotherhood,

then I will ask you when you started your own Brotherhood, because this kingdom is

the fulfillment of the dream of King Nebuchadnezzar as interpreted by Daniel. That in

the days of those kings God will set up a kingdom which shall neve r be destroyed, nor

shall its sovereignty be surrendered to another race. That it shall break into pieces all

other kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall reign forever. So beloved, this is

that kingdom. It is not the kingdom of the world, Africa, Europe, America, or any

particular race. So the whole world and fullness thereof belong to God.

HIS OTHER SHEEP

And He has said that, He has other sheep, which are not of this fold. That He will

bring them into the fold and they shall hear his voice for there shall be one flock under

one shepherd.

No matter the circumstances under which you find yourself, do not fail to speak the

truth. Always stand firm in truth. If somebody persuades you to take an oath, do not

take it for it is satanic. In the same way, if you are told to take an oath from the bible,

do not accept it for it is a great sin in the sight of God. It is a known fact that any

person who is initiated into any secret cult would be asked to take an oath of

~ 12 ~

allegiance so that he would not reveal the secret of the society. But if the person eventually reveals this secret, he is killed immediately. This will prove to you that

anything that has to do with an oath taking is satanic.

If you learn to speak the truth at all times, you will not be subject ed to any sin. But

any person that takes an oath over a certain act must surely repeat such an act,

because it is the work of Satan. So, do not swear at all; neither by heaven: for it is

God's throne, nor by the earth for it is His footstool. But let your communication be

yes or no. This is the kingdom of God which does not require falsehood, taking of

oath, craftiness, cunning behavior, or stealing. Whenever you commit sin, go on your

bended knees, and pray for forgiveness. Once you confess your sins, you will be

forgiven.

If you fail to speak the truth at any given time, you are led by the devil. One of our

spiritual choruses has it said loud and clear that: "Truth remains firm, He is at work,

we have seen Him in this generation, and He is Olumba Olumba Ob u." Whatever you

embark upon, without practicing the truth, is null and void. Anything outside the

truth is not required here. So let truthfulness be your watchword, for this gospel has

become the judgment to the whole world. Whoever fails to practice this truth, stands

condemned. If you receive this gospel and practice it, you would be free from

problems. So let it be known to you that at any point in time you commit sin, whether

it is stealing, or telling of lies, you are perished except you repent.

The scripture has warned us not to swear at all, neither by heaven for it is God's

throne, nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of

the great king. Therefore it means that at any time you raise up your hand to swea r,

you have committed a deadly crime. So you are enjoined to flee from such practices.

Oath taking has become the order of the day because even the government and armed

robbers administer oath to their members. And whoever fails to live according to the

terms of the oath suffers a consequence. So beloved, do not have anything to do with

oath for it is of the devil. But always let your yes be yes and your no be no. Anything

short of this is from the devil. And I know that this gospel is directly from God, an d it

will dwell richly in you. Take this message to the outside world. Let our golden text be

read again:

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 5:34-37:

"But I say unto you swear not at all; neither by heaven: for it is God's throne, nor by

the earth; for it is His footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great king.

Neither shalt thou swear by the head, because thou canst not make one hair white or

black. But let your communication be Yea, yea; Nay, nay; for whatsoever is more than

these cometh of evil."

~ 13 ~

DO NOT TAKE AN OATH:

Once oath taking stops, there will be peace in the whole world. The problem emanates

from this very act. So brethren, at all times try to avoid oath taking but say the truth .

Falsehood is the source of all forms of sin. It leads to th e death of innocent people. So

right from this moment learn to speak the truth. Now when you swear by your head,

can you create a strand of hair? Can you make your hair black or white? So you are

told to let your communication be either yes or no; for anyt hing short of this is evil.

The reigning king in this era is Truth and His word is true. For in truth He judges and

makes war. Have you ever seen or heard of Christ giving an oath to anyone?

Brotherhood is truth and so we do not swear by the Bible or anyth ing else. We do not

consult oracle, tell lies, or indulge in any sinful acts. And its foundation at all times is

on truthfulness.

So beloved, it is said that a stroke of the cane is sufficient for the wise. Let he who has

ears to hear, hear. May the Father bless His Holy Words. Amen!

THANK YOU FATHER

THE JUDGEMENT OF THE WORLD

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: HEBREWS 1:6

And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, and let all

the angels of God worship him.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 24:29-30

Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the

moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of

the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in

heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of

man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 25:31-32

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then

shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: And before him shall be gathered all nations:

and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from

the goats.

THE NEW AGE

Any person, who says to you that you are yet to understand this age, is saying the

truth. That is why I have cited these three texts to point out what the Scriptures

recorded about this age. No word of God will pass away except is fulfilled. The first

lesson recorded Christ second coming and how the angels would worship him. The

signs that would proceed, the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ are clearly recorded in

the second lesson as captured above. While the Golden Text recorded that, when the

Son of Man comes, he shall sit upon the throne of his glory to judge the whole world.

Note that he will not move from house to house but would sit on his throne. He shall

sit and separate the righteous from the sinners.

Assume that all the Paramount rulers in Nigeria we're invited for a meeting at the

executive chambers of their various states. However, they arrived with their aids or

servants who escorted them into the chambers. Nevertheless one of the Paramount

rulers arrived the venue with no aid and carried his own chair on his head, how would

you regard such a ruler? Therefore, our Lord Jesus Christ in his second coming, all

angels will worship him. If Angel Michael alone fought with Lucifer and sent him out

from heaven, imagine all the angels of God bowing down their heads to worship our

Lord Christ. What a glorious King is this? This shows his supe rnatural power and the

importance of his assignment on earth. The question is are you prepared for his

judgment?

~ 15 ~

This judgment assignment is not a function of the government or any institution but of God alone. Therefore, as you know that you would be jud ged, you have to refrain

from sins and work for your salvation.

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the judge he will judge you, your excuses not withstanding

your pretense not to hear him, when he calls. Alternatively, that you belong to other

sects will not help you escape his judgment. Your complaints that he is an imposter

will not stop him. He will judge both the living and the dead. Remember, he will judge

you according to your works. According to the Scriptures, our Lord Jesus Christ is not

coming to walk from one church to another neither will he be coming for a particular

group of people, but he is coming to judge the whole world including the angels, the

birds and even the bad animals. This is the kingdom of God; that is why our Lord

Jesus Christ said, “Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these

things be fulfilled.” Matthew 24:34 KJV

CHURCH WILL NOT SAVE YOU

It is true that you who have been told what to do, you are lucky. Our generation and

the entire world are lucky because, the everlasting gospel have advised the world on

how to prepare for this great day. “A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love

one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.” John 13:34 KJV Love

is the key. Individuals should be conscious of their attitude towards others. Any

person who allows his soul to perish, his blood shall be on his head. The Bible is like

the Ark of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ is not coming to establish political parties;

neither is he coming to establish churches. He has come to judge and separate the

good people from the bad ones. He has come with all the angels. Have you not known

that, if you are not righteous, that his coming should be a source of worry to you?

Especially, to those of you who betrayed him? Was it not the church that killed him?

Wasn’t it the government who ordered it?

Therefore in the Day of Judgment, neither the church nor the government will be

exempted. It is because of his love that he has given this opportunity to repent from

sins. Therefore, spread this gospel to others to repent and follow God. Refrain from

sins, because no church will save you, and the government will not save you. You only

need to repent and love one another. You have to love not only the member s of the

kingdom, also wherever you are love one another. If the owner of the house had

known when the thieves would come he would keep watch, since you claim that you

do not know when he will come, it is imperative to watch and be prepared at all times.

He is here. For this reason, our Lord Jesus Christ said that, “But of that day and hour

knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” Matthew 24:36

KJV

~ 16 ~

THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE ONE

Class distinction, will no more exists in this kingdom. The re will be no sex and age

difference. No one will be superior to the other except our Lord Jesus Christ who will

Lord over all others. The whole world will be one. Nationality will not exist.

Everybody will remain in love with one another. Our Lord Jesus Christ agreed to

redeem man and show him what to do, but where man refuses to abide, he will

destroy him. If you do not refrain from sins, whether you are a church member or not,

you will not be saved. The unrighteous are the goats while the righteous are the sheep.

The time is now; our Lord Jesus Christ is knocking at your door. When you read

Matthew 24, you will know that the world of Noah was not saved, that of Sodom and

Gomorrah was not also saved therefore it is true that if you disobey God, this world

will equally be destroyed by fire.

None of you believe the distraction with fire, but in Luke 17:28–30, it is stated:

“Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they dra nk, they bought, they

sold, they planted, and they built; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it

rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be

in the day when the Son of man is revealed.”

Also, 2 Peter 3:10 confirms the distraction with fire: “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and

the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that ar e therein

shall be burned up.”

If you do not forsake sins you shall be destroyed. God has no relationship with

thieves, murderers, adulterers and fornicators. God is love, truth, peace, patience and

more. We were created in his own image and we are supposed to be like him.

THE BONE OF CONTENTION

I feel you are lucky because on 11 August 1974, in the main hall of 34 Ambo St.,

Calabar, the judgment equipment was shown to all the members that were present ;

those who were there saw what happen. How the weather suddenly changed and

darkness engulf the worshipers. The brethren saw the earth vibrate, they came face -to-

face with destruction but the divine presence of the Holy Spirit that was the light that

illuminates the place, provided calm. If you continue in sins, you will be destroyed.

What you are expected to do in this kingdom is to love, show mercy, peace, have

patience and be truthful. You must not kill or eat flesh. Have you not heard that the

judgment will begin from the church? This is because most of the trouble on earth

generate from there. If it will be difficult for Christians, to be saved, what about those

who love the world? Moses witnessed that God would raise a Prophet among you and

that all will listen to him but whoever will disobey him will be cut off.

~ 17 ~

Our Lord Jesus Christ also said that if your righteousness is not more than that of the Pharisees and the scribes you shall not enter therein. He also said that whosoever does

not receive his word would be judged by him. The government, church es and even

individuals have rejected him and his words and works. This is the cause of all the

problems facing the world. I do not come either as a preacher or a Prophet but to

judge the world and reward individuals accordingly by the father, the son and the

Holy Spirit. Due to human frailty, I sympathize with you and I have spent many years

telling you what to do in order to be saved. Unfortunately you are not prepared to

listen. Ignorance is no excuse because all eyes have seen me you have to look like me.

Let our first lesson be re-examined:

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: HEBREWS 1:6

And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, and let all

the angels of God worship him.

THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT ARE HERE

The angels like our security operatives are the law-enforcement agents of God. They

are agents that function between God and man. The angels are those fighting the war

because you cannot see the spiritual operations of God or Christ. You are mere mortal.

They have disappeared because it is said, let all the angels of god worship him. If the

father does not command, they cannot act. Now if I use my remote control, you will

see what will happen. There is no need begging when you are not ready to change.

Somebody is sympathizing with you, yet you are careless about your souls. Remember

that Elijah the Prophet punished those who did not obey Moses laws. Therefore, this is

the period of judgment; all those who are sinners should know that, they will receive

their punishment.

In Brotherhood of the Cross and Star love is the Paramount. Preach love and freedom

to the whole world. And if you love one another, you will be prosperous and will be

saved. The father, son and Holy Spirit are here, let us humble ourselves and keep the

word of God. All those who were baptized now have our Lord Jesus Christ living in

them. There is no Jews nor Greeks, no freeman nor slave all of us are the same in the

kingdom of God. If we are one in our Lord Jesus Christ, it means we are sons of

Abraham. We are empowered to rule others, why do you then work yourselves for

material wealth, when heaven and earth are for the children of God? Everything that

had been prophesied is fulfilled.

It is said in Matthew 24:21–22: “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not

since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those

days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those

days shall be shortened.”

~ 18 ~

The salvation that the whole world receives is because of the children of God. The Ghanaians can testify that before the establishment of Brotherhood of the Cross and

Star in Ghana, there was famine, but with its inauguration they now have enough food

and money. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star brings peace and love to the whole

world.

PRACTICES ON WHAT YOU PREACH

Our work is not inside the Bethel but going into the world preaching the gospel to the

poor and the rich, the old and the young, the blacks an d the whites. Tell the whole

world to abstain from sins and practice what you preach. You must not do it for

money or any other mundane thing, but aim at going around all nooks and crannies of

the world before the end will come. If you are a member of any secret society take note

that this is condemnable by the kingdom, please withdraw and involve yourself in the

work of God. Shun all forms of vices. God is with power. All powers in heaven and on

earth are with him. The moment you are baptized, the powers a re imparted to you,

therefore you have all his protection and you are free from all forms of harm in the

society. There is no burning of candle or incense, or medicine either in tablets or in

injections. God has his powers and glory. That is why people, re mark that

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is powerful.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 24:29-30

Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the

moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of

the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in

heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of

man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

LOVE AND RIGHTEOUSNESS SHOULD BE YOUR WATCH WORDS

The above text reveals what will happen after the tribulation on the judgment day. The

power is from God. Do not be afraid of anything and do not go to the hospital because

you have the greatest doctor. Anybody who wants to hurt you would be harmed.

Where ever you go on earth for power whether it be India, America and other

countries of the world, you will be referred to Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. This

is so because herein lies righteousness. On this, some people feel there is something

devilish about Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Some say Brotherhood of the Cross

and Star has its power from the water at Biakpan, others think of 26 Mbukpa here in

Calabar, and the vestry. These notions are erroneous. This is a divine power that, the

Prophets prophesied about and it has happened. In your preaching, do not advise

somebody to leave his faith or the church he belongs, but only on love and

righteousness. All that are contained in the portion above are still happening today.

There is mourning in different parts of the world etc., this time he is coming with

~ 19 ~

power and glory with all his angels. Think about yourselves in a situation of

unpreparedness.

FORSAKE SIN AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER

In this kingdom, we do not want any form of medical practice either traditional or

Western. When you believe, forsake your sins, and receive baptism there is neither

sickness nor death for you. If you have any problem, you are a member of

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star but you steal, fornicate, practic e ritualism, how

then will you not be afflicted? When I observe these things, I feel none of you knows

what you were doing. You claim to be a Crusader, Apostle, a Missionary or Chorister,

yet you do not practice the injunction of God. You need to forsake a ll sins and love

one another that is what God wants from you. As true Christians, you should eschew

quarrel and segregation amongst you. All you are supposed to do is to foster peace,

love and unity among individuals irrespective of territorial boundaries.

You are therefore advised to present yourselves as the light of the world so that others

will emulate you. Presently, the whole world is investigating the sources through

which Brotherhood of the Cross and Star powers are derived. Members of Brotherhood

of the Cross and Star are confronted in various ways and are asked to reveal the root

of these powers. The problem of the world today is lack of faith. Most people doubt

the power of God. All powers belong to God and all that you see and hear from

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is from God. Our Lord Jesus Christ said love one

another as I love you. If you love one another, the whole world will know that you are

my disciples. It is because of lack of love among members of the Brotherhood of the

Cross and Star, particularly in your different societies that makes some members

doubt and condemn the powers of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Let our Golden

text be re-examined:

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 25:31-32

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then

shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: And before him shall be gathered all nations:

and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from

the goats.

GOD SYMPATHY AND MANKIND

He will be coming to separate the sheep from the goats. Re -examine your behavior, are

you qualified as the sheep or the goats? 1 John 3:2 states, “Beloved, now are we the

sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he

shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.”

~ 20 ~

Imagine a situation in which rules are made but when one goes contrary to these laws the authority keeps mute. What do you think would be the action of the authority at

last?

For God to be silent over all your sins does not portray him as in active but he is

pathetic and dose not want you to perish, rather he is allowing you enough time to

repent from your evil practices. The whole world would have a ccepted Brotherhood of

the Cross and Star but because of the poor attitudes of members, many people are

discouraged. These poor attitudes of yours are barriers to people who would want to

accept Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.

Brethren, I will not take you further. A stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise.

Those who have ears to hear; let them hear, may the Lord bless his holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER.

~ 21 ~

THE BEGINNING OF THE END

TEXT OF DISCOURSE: MATTHEW 24: 1-51

PESTILENCE: VISITATION OF GOD'S WRATH

Imagine what is happening today in the world. Place this side by side, with the text

above; they are at par. Frequent occurrences of earthquake, famine and other natural

phenomena that take place in different parts of the world, are visitation of God's

wrath. These occur not in vain but in fulfilment of the scripture as stated at Matthew

24:6-8

"And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all

these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet". For nation shall rise against

nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines, pestilences, and

earthquakes, in diverse places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.

This pestilence and natural Phenomena marks the beginning of the end of the world.

In a reply to the disciple's question, Our Lord Jesus Christ predicted wars and other

natural pestilence to mark the end of the world. Besides, the war of God will come on

the judgement day. I devote my time preaching to you to refrain from sins, but you

would not listen. With all the indications and harbingers to the end of the world, yet

you are ‘not moved’. I wonder what will convince you that the end is fast

approaching. The day of judgement is the day which God will judge the world and

reprimand unrighteous people. There will be no gunshots. Only fire blast from the sky

will gut all parts of the earth. However, t he righteous ones will be saved.

HARBINGERS OF THE END

I have told you to shun stealing, fornication, occult practices and other unwholesome

acts that deprave the society. The end of time is at hand, and the judge is at your

threshold. All the signs he talked about are manifesting one after the other. These

signs and harbingers are to prompt your preparation for the last day. The end of the

world is quite near but nobody knows vividly the actual day or time. It could be

today. Hear what Our Lord Jesus Christ said:

Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against

kingdom: Luke 21:10. He further predicted that: And many false prophets will arise

and shall deceive many: Matthew 24:11. All these predictions and harbingers have

come to pass.

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is analogous to Noah's Ark. All the children of God

must gather at Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. At the last day, anything that is

outside the fold is sure to meet its doom. This explains why the scripture sta tes:

~ 22 ~

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

BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR: THE ARK OF NOAH

All the unrighteous people will perish at the judgement day, and the righteous ones

will start the new World. This is to fulfil what the scripture states: 'Fo r our God is a

consuming fire' Hebrews 12:29.

Are you waiting to be consumed by fire? The fire will be a magnanimous

conflagration, which will ravage natural things and human artefacts. I enjoin yo u to

de-emphasize materialism, such as money, children, property among others and try to

help yourself get out of the impending doom ahead. This explains an adage that says:

'Look for the black sheep when it is not yet dark'. When you refrain from sins and get

into this 'Ark', you are sure to have salvation. It is at this juncture, that people will

know members of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, whom the people of the

world are looking down on. They are indeed the chosen people of God. In view of the

impending destruction, be advised to go out and preach the gospel of deliverance to

people, but you should not compel people to accept your message. Remind the world

of the need to abhor sins.

All those who will listen to the word of God and repent from t heir sins, must be

allowed into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star (the Ark of God). When all the

righteous assemble together at one place, God can use just a second to destroy the

earth. Have you ever witnessed fire outbreak? Can that not give you an idea of what

the destruction will look like? Nobody on earth knows the day and the time of His

coming. God delays the action because of His mercy. Repent now and abstain from

sins. Also, de-emphasize materialism.

The children of God and angles are aware of the approaching time and have prepared

for it. Others say there is still ample time. This is analogous to a situation where a

master gives a servant the signs that would precede his return from his journey. When

you see these signs, will the servant not know t hat his master is due for return? That is

exactly what the end of the world is. Those who have ears are in the know. This

explains one of the spiritual choruses that has it that: “You are losing something, you

are losing something, you are losing something; Anyone who does not know Olumba

Denies himself something. The angels say, the time is here, But Satan says, 'there is

still more time, anyone who does not know Olumba is losing something.”

The wordings of this song underscore another spiritual song that says: “Enter inside

the boat; the boat conveying good people, Olumba is the builder of the good boat. My

brother, enter into the boat.”

~ 23 ~

HOLOCAUST THIS TIME, NOT DELUGE

Do you know that this kingdom is the Ark of Noah? Recall the last Nigerian Civil War.

If the Father did not come, nobody would have survived the war because people were

wallowing in sins. Have you ever seen someone preaches continually for three

hundred and sixty-five days (365) of the year? However, the Father is doing that.

Many human being do not believe that the world will soon come to an end, and the

time is at hand. The whites, blacks, church Leaders, Bishops are oblivious of this fact.

This fact agrees vividly with what the scripture states at 2 Peter 3:8-12 'But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a

thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men

count slackness; but is long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish,

but that all should come to repentance.

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall

pass away with a great noise. And the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth

also and the works that are therein shall bur n up. Seeing then, that all these things

shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and

Godliness. Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God; wherein, the

heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent

heat?’ The fire will come from heaven. The holocaust is so horrible, that no one will

withstand the ugly sight. See also 1Corinthians 3:12 – 15.

'Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones , wood, hay,

and stubble; every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it.

Because it shall be revealed by fire: and the fire shall try every man's work of what

sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he sha ll receive a

reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he, himself shall be

save, yet so as by fire'.

The timing is beyond human comprehension. God will not use conventional

weaponry, to be intercepted by world powers, rather the re is going to be holocaust

that will ravage even the oceans. It is foolishness for all human beings, particularly the

whites to feel that their ammunitions will help them. Now that you have known what

will happen, why can you not prepare for the rainy day? When Noah preached about

the flood, most people disbelieved but it was inevitable. For forty days, the water

covered the mountains. The great deluge was not restrictive. Now, all those that will

forsake sin, will survive the fire. All the afflictions in our society, kwarshiokor,

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and other diseases are just 'police

actions'. However, on that day, more harm shall come in just a second - holocaust.

~ 24 ~

RESPOND TO THE CALL

It will be too late to accept the baptism of the Holy Spirit on that day. The Father is

now asking: who will enter into His boat? Many people show apathy to the call.

People believe that nothing will happen. Does it mean that the Bible is lying? I wonder

who have taught you otherwise. The contrary view that you have confirmed what the

scripture states:

"But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false

teachers among you, who privately shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the

Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction’. And many shall

follow their pernicious ways; by reason for whom the way of truth, shall be evil

spoken. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words, make merchandise

of you, whose judgement now of a long time, lingers not, and their damnation

lingererth not. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to

hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgement; and

spared not the old world, but saved Noah, the eighth pe rson, a preacher of

righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly" 2 Peter 2:1-5.

The judgement day is fast approaching. What happened during the time of Adam were

very simple compare with what will happen on that day. The angels, an d even Our

Lord Jesus Christ, do not know the time, except the Father. You should forsake sins,

and be saved. See Matthew 24: 13-14: "But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all th e world; for a

witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come".

As Jonah was ordered to go for God’s work, you are equally enjoined to go to different

parts of the world, and preach the word of God openly, to everybody. Do not allow

church, tradition and other things to debar you from preaching. The time is quite near

and the 'soldiers' of God are already vigilant, preparing to send down their 'missiles'.

However, you can be saved, if you repent from your sinful acts. As such, repentance is

a condition for salvation. This is the new kingdom of God, and the true members of

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star are saved. There is no village, government, nor

church that will be saved, if there is no repentance. Shun vanity and the lust for

money. Do not steal; rather you should love one another.

NEW WORLD FROM DEBRIS OF HOLOCAUST

After the judgement day, there will evolve a new world which will be formed by

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, from the debris after holocaust just like Noah and

the seven people after the flood.

In the New Kingdom that will evolve, there will be no war, sickness and famine. The

pestilence will be things of the past. Since I have intimated you on the consequence of

sin, you should sit upright. Any person who wallows in sins until the last day will

~ 25 ~

have himself or herself to blame. If God, Christ and his angels were not here, how would people be informed about the day?

You should know that, having been gathered into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star,

you are no more of the world, but of heaven. You will refrain from your sins only

when it occurs to you that, it was angels that brought you to this kingdom. The 'boat'

is not filled, so more people are needed. As such, anyone who is not in the boat is

doomed. God, in his infinite mercy, patience and love, does not want us to perish. He

wants us to repent. Those who will heed His advice and are patient to the end will

enjoy everlasting life. The recalcitrant sinners will perish.

This is the New Kingdom of God. For this reason, you should shun stealing, lying, and

diabolical practices among other unwholesome acts. You should live in peace and

unity with one another. Peaceful co-existence is a panacea for a better life.

May God bless His Holy words, Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

WE ARE ADVANCING TO THE END OF TIME

TEXT: REVELATION 21:4-5

And God shall wipe all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no 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.

IT IS NOT A WAR WAGEING BETWEEN COUNTRIES

Go and inform your brethren and parent to forsake sin because the time has come for

God to mete out justice. But for our Lord Jesus Christ, do you think anybody would

have survived? Only one angel can destroy the entire world. That statement is

irrevocable whenever the Father would come down, he would be accompanied by a

host of angels. Death is an angel sickness is an angel. What you regard as good or bad

are all angels. They all submit to the father. Angel Gabriel, and other Archangels have

all come down to worship the Holy Spirit. The spiritual war between good and evil is

called Armageddon. People claim that Brotherhood worship man but now, if you utter

an evil word against members of Brotherhood, you will be arrested by the angels

because this is not the period to insult God and his children. If you attempt it you

can’t go scot-free.

Psalm 127 states that, Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that built it,

juju, church, soldier, Government and even man can never protect anybody. Right

now, whenever you in the space, everywhere he takes dominion. Angels are in

complete control of everywhere. If your conversation focuses of an evil topic, they are

they’re watching you. Angels are spirits, human’s beings, Animals, Winds, Fish, Tree,

Rain, Fire and everything. They are after the destruction of sinful ones so that the

children of God can eventually take the world with joy and happiness, thereafter

discrimination division and strife shall be a thing of the past.

The people of the world claim to be wise where lies the wisdom of the world? It is just

like asking a goat to keep watch over a yam. If a woman who is seriously looking for a

husband is asked by her friend to take care of her husband till she returns from her

tour, has that woman not deprived herself of a husband? Since the other lady was

seriously looking for a husband, she would simply snatch the man from her friend by

the same token, if a man goes on a long journey and ask his friend to take care of his

wife, by the time he returns home, he would realize that the wife has already divorced

him to marry his friend. This is exactly what is happening in the world. Every man

even the government is corrupt.

Every man is a thief. If there is a vacancy in the bank and a man is asked to fill the

post, his next line of action is to think of how to defraud the Bank. Again if a man is

given charge of a well-stocked supermarket with much money therein, would he not

loot the wares and the money? So, a bad man cannot do any good thing no matter the

~ 27 ~

situation.

That is why people would say that members of the Brotherhood do not call on the

police to arrest anyone if they are offended. What do you have to do with the po lice?

They are equally in the same shoes as the offenders. We are advancing to the end of

time, so there is need for a spiritual war to restore sanity. It is not a war waged

between countries rather its target is those who are wicked and sinful all over th e

world.

TEXT: REVELATION 21:4-5

And God shall wipe all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither

sorrow, or crying, neither shall 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.

WHENEVER YOU COMMIT SIN, YOU MUST DIE

If you look at the world now, you will notice great tribulation, and death, this is

because of the sinfulness in the world. Hospita ls cannot cure most sickness. Many

deadly diseases are daily taking the life of human beings without any medical

solution. Diseases like Aids, Hypertension, Gonorrhea and many others are as a result

of sinfulness. They can only be cured by Baptism in the B rotherhood of the Cross and

Star. Henceforth, you are advised to desist from all manners of sins. Everybody is a

Brotherhood. The world is not meant for only members of brotherhood therefore,

wherever you are if you commit sin, you cannot go scot -free. You must be punished

accordingly. It has been said that those people or things that cause the children of God

not to worship God shall be destroyed. Therefore, whether one is a member of

brotherhood or not, he/she shall equally be punished if he or she entang les himself or

herself in sin.

It is said that the axe is laid unto the root of the tree, every tree therefore which

brighten not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast unto the fire (Luke 3:9). In others

words, if the evil men, are not completely wiped out from the earth the angels, shall

not be at rest. To escape this wrath, refrain from sin and abide in righteousness. There

should be only Love, Joy and Peace everywhere. It is important for you to appreciate

my insistence on this issue. If you do not refrain from committing sins, no matter the

strength of your population, God cannot use you for his service. I have said that it

would be impossible for thieves, fornicator, juju priest, drunkard, and other manner of

sinners to ask God to use them for his service and he responds favorably. You are a

drunkard and you claim that you have surrendered yourself to God; in what way do

you expect him to use you? You ask God to give you money, children, houses or any

other form of materials possession, how do you think you will use them beneficially if

you are a corrupt person? Do you think that if you do not repent you can be turned

into an honored, holy and sanctified vessel for the mortar’s use?

~ 28 ~

Repentance is the only key for salvation and salvation need being fi t for the service of God. Since Adam and Eve were driven away from the kingdom of God, what tangible

thing has man done for God? Do we not steal, kill, fornicate, drink, snuff, and cause

confusion and evil? Yet you pray that he should grant you longevity. You want a long

life to continue committing sins. You are a King or a Queen or a traditional ruler or a

prime minister or a governor but you do not fear God; how would he lend his ears

towards you?

You are a Bishop of a church, yet you continue in sin; how do you expect God to listen

to your lamentations? Whatever form of sinner at the head of any institution cannot

hope that such an institution could be viable. If you are a director of a company, it

means your company is falling. You are a president, King, Queen or Prime minister of

a country; it means your country is crumbling.

USE YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER O.O.O. AND EVERYTHING WILL BE WELL

Some foolish people think that if you are a Brotherhood that you can escape

punishment after sinning. It is not so. Ther e are certain angles commissioned to deal

with individual sinners irrespective of their church or society. There is no solution

other than practicing the word of God. If you like, fast for days and pray it cannot stop

the judgment from being executed. Are you not shocked that many Brotherhood

members over the years have not taken any type of drugs yet they are healthy? The

Father has wiped away tears from their eyes. Here in Brotherhood, nothing is applied

but ordinary word. The promise of God as recorded in the second lesson is for

everybody who is righteous. The worldly people claim that they cannot come to

Brotherhood for fear of death. It should be noted that death is for sinners not for

righteous Brotherhood. Whenever you commit sin, you must die. Excep t you fail to

practice the word of God, nothing can harm you. Whenever you have any problem,

use your telephone number O.O.O. and everything will be well.

In this kingdom you do not need to inject yourself nor take any tablet but your

sickness will certainly vanish. God has made a solid plan against those who are

workers of iniquity. His children have been protected from the calamity because his

angles had already been instructed on those to make war with. Not because of your

prayers not has he (God) got any instruction from any person. If you employ the

services of a day and night watchman, you are indirectly inviting armed robbers to

your house. Do not rely in anybody’s protection but if you abide in righteousness, the

angles would be sent to minister unto you. No person has the power to do anything

for you except God. It is said that a stroke of the cane is sufficient to the wise. Let

those who have ears hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the world. May God

bless his Holy words. Amen!

THANK YOU FATHER

THE UNGODLY WORLD

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: 1ST CORINTHIANS 15:49

And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the

heavenly.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 5:38

But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.

GOLDEN TEXT: JAMES 3:17

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be

entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

Introductory songs:

1. Be pure as I am pure for unrighteousness can never dwell with me.

2. Be born again, the trumpet is sounding, be born again.

3. My child if your heart should love me, i shall dwell in your heart.

4. Who is the one knocking at the door of my heart? It is i, thy most high God.

THERE IS NO RIGHTEOUS BEING ON EARTH

Beloved, the wordings of the songs you have just read form the theme of our lesson

today. The fact, you do not have money, food, spouse or any other material thing does

not mean, you should debar the Holy Spirit from indwell ing you. Your old life of

swindling, fornication, falsehood, pomposity among others should cease henceforth.

Make way for the Holy Spirit, to come into you, and dwell therein. You should know

righteousness has nothing to do with evil. Therefore, you should do away with all evil

tendencies in you, so the Holy Spirit may have a befitting place in you to live. One of

my sons, pastor offu had said, the world is founded on falsehood, craftiness, hatred

and all forms of abominations, and as such it cannot stand f irm. Governments,

churches, schools and even homes are founded on evil. All the inhabitants of the

world, both black and white, have not pleased God.

This explains the reason why, our lord Jesus Christ said: "every plant which my

heavenly father hath not planted, shall be rooted up Matthew 15:13." of a truth, the world is founded on all forms of evil. There are very many dishonest people in the

world. So many people are ill-treated, disappointed and victimized by the evil ones. A

woman, for instance, cannot have anything free from a man; if a woman refuses the

man's advances, then she cannot succeed in whatever she wanted from him. Female

students are victimized by the greedy lecturers whereas the ones, who yield to their

advances, pass with flying colors. Even in other establishments, (government or

private), fornication and adultery are the orders of the day; and those who refuse

these atrocious acts, are victimized. Women are not left out in this game. They treat

~ 30 ~

men as badly as the men treat the women. Apart from this, money is regarded as the key to every success. If you have no money, then you will miss very many chances of

succeeding in life. If you miss your way and ask, either a little boy or girl for the right

way, he or she will first ask for money, before directing you to the right route.

Companies collect bribes before helping anybody. In fact, bribery and corruption have

become part and parcel of the world system. In offices, every staff member must be

bribed before anything is done for a person.

There is no job opportunity offered free. Every bit of thing, which is done in the

world, has money as its priority. Now, another indirect way in which people use in

getting money from people is, when you ask somebody to accompany you to

somewhere, he will tell you, he has a business to attend to the next day, and that the

business can fetch him $10,000 dollars. Now this person indirectly wants you to give

him $10,000 dollars. And if you desperately need his company, you will give him the

money. Have you seen how ticklish people could be?

The whole world is filled with falsehood. All the houses you see, and the flashy cars

around, were all bought with falsehood and corruption. There is no truth in the world,

and if you are truthful, you will die of hunger. If you humble yourself, people will

trample upon you, and go on their way unperturbed. If you are merciful, people will

take away all your property, and leave you desolate. There is no mercy in the world.

Even in your house, if you speak the truth to your wife, she will take it as a lie; and

when you tell her lies, she will believe you. If you deceive your husband, he will

believe you; but if you tell him the truth, he will disbelieve you. A married woman has

up to ten boyfriends. A man will tell you, he is married to only one wife, but he has

chains of concubines. Then the wife will operate on one part of the town, while the

husband operates on the other part. This is the sordid situation in the world today.

If this happens among couples, what would you think can happen to the spinsters and

bachelors? Young girls own series of houses and cars among other material things, as a

result of harlotry; and the boys either swindle, dupe, steal or even rob with arms, in

order to satisfy the girls. Therefore, when one tells you, he or she is rich, if you care to

find out the sources of this wealth, you will be dumbfounded. There is no truth in the

whole wide world. That is why, Christ said, all the things, which were not planted by

the father, shall be uprooted. (Matthew 15:13) our lord Jesus Christ knew the things

not planted by his father, and he would have mentioned them; but he did not want to

do so, because it was not yet time for him to reveal them. If one speaks or practices the

truth, he will be killed. If you are found helping somebody, you will be regarded as a

deranged fellow. If you begin to greet the little ones, people will complain, and regard

you as a foolish person. But the question is why was Christ crucified? He healed the

sick, made the blind to see, and the lame to walk, free of charge.

~ 31 ~

He was accused of healing on the Sabbath day; they then decided to crucify him, because they said, he brought confusion amongst them. If you are a village head, you

have to be a murderer, a thief, a swindler, fornicator, etc. Else you can never be

allowed to exist as a village head. You have to give account of the people you have

killed, and how much you can steal, before you are allowed to rule.

You are witnesses to the fact, most people boast of the number o f people they

murdered. They claim to be omnipresent, and if anybody should provoke them, they

can show him, they are this and that. With this empty boast, people will hold them in

high esteem. If you come across people, who are said to be strong, know suc h people

indulge in all forms of atrocities. If you should refuse taking alcoholic drinks, people

will regard you as a woman, in fact, weaker than a woman. If you drink and enjoy

yourself, you will be regarded as a gentleman.

If you do not believe in fornication, women will sarcastically call you eunuch, and

both men and women would never take you for anything. Can you argue? If you give

out anything freely, you will be regarded as a foolish person. So, beloved, do not be

deceived. When you get to a place, where lawyers and doctors park their cars, and

display their wealth, do not be dazzled; because they are founded on falsehood and

deceit; no truth is found in them. When you come across anything people praise so

much, and they put their money and wealth into it, know it is all deceit. That is why,

Christ said: "i am come in my father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall

come in his own name, him ye will receive." (John 5:43)

There is one brother, (a newly baptized member), who testified, if i t were in his former

church, the information officer, brother eyo, would never be seen or talked to, without

money being given to him. This is quite true and this is what is going on all over the

world. If you do not tell lies, pay money at the gate, or 'love' a person, he can never

open the gate for you. Children indulge in so much more necromancy more than their

parents. The university students initiate into different secret societies. The lawyers

and doctors have assorted protective charms.

In the entire world, nobody wants God, for people are after suppressing others; they

have nothing to do with God. Nations fight against others, for the purpose of testing

their weapons and capabilities. But God does not advise any nation to fight again st

another nation. The inter-tribal wars are as a result of one tribe trying to know, "who

is whom," thereby killing thousands of people for nothing's sake. They set aside a

period of time to see who can win the fight. They have no regards for human life.

Right from the time of Adam till date, this is exactly what is going on.

~ 32 ~

THE ARMAGEDDON WAR

The first lesson has rightly stated, as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall

also bear the image of the heavenly. (1st Corinthians 15:49) now the image of the

heavenly has arrived, every foolish act should stop forthwith. This is the reason why;

the Armageddon war will be waged. Most people believe in voodoo so much, if they

want to build a house, they must apply it. If they start any business, they use voodoo

means. Other things like wrestling, trading, hunting, farming, etc. Have their

foundations rooted in voodoo. Now they have reached their wits end. I earlier told

you, the spirit now on earth, has never visited us. He has arrived in a big way.

If you visit certain communities, you will be advised not to go out at night, because of

the masquerade that operates at night; and when you want to know, exactly what they

are doing, you will see, it is nothing but their foolish 'game;' and if you should go out,

your head would be chopped off. 'Obon' and 'ekpe' societies believe in killing people.

They do these things without recourse to God. When you are told, a village is about to

celebrate any festival know, they are about to practice their evil deeds. And if they

should hear, our lord Jesus Christ is coming, they will shout, they do not want any

Jesus in their midst, for they are the real Jesus. Can you see the foolishness of the

world?

now recall the story of David. Saul requested for three hundred human

heads, because David sought his daughter's hand in marriage. To David, that was

nothing. He went and killed three hundred people, and gave the heads to Saul.

Most people have no regards for human life; therefore, murder to them is nothing.

People regard stealing, killing, and necromancy as their priority. the cocaine they

sniff is for them to be high, so they may be able to carry out their evil deeds, but i

want you to realize, that is the mark of the earthly man. Right now, if the people of the

world refuse to repent of their evil deeds, they all will see what shall befall them.

Church does not mean the house of God. It is a body. The drunks have their own

church; the thieves have theirs, their president and members. The fornicators also have

their own church. Right now you are complaining, you do not like what the armed

robbers are doing, but little do you realize your husband is an armed-robber. Are you

aware of that?

All the so-called important men are those who commit all forms of atrocities. What

was the cause of john's death? King Herod married his brother's wife, but john the

Baptist told Herod, it was not right for him to do that, and Herod became annoyed

with john. Since Herod did not want to be accused of killing a prophet, Herod rather

imprisoned john. The day Herod celebrated his birthday, the daughter of the woman

Herod married danced so dexterously, Herod asked the daughter to request for

whatever she wanted. Instead of the daughter to request, she would love to be a

queen, she ran to her mother and asked her, what she should request from the king.

~ 33 ~

Since her mother was not happy with john, the mother advised the daughter to request for john's head.

And you may ask, what was in john's head? This shows you the extent to which man

could be wicked. The daughter ran to Herod and told him, she wanted john's head,

and Herod was sad about that, because he had promised to give her whatever she

requested. So Herod ordered two men to go to the prison yard, and bring john's head

on a platter of silver. As it was in those days, so it is today. Whenever you tell people

the truth, they will deal with you ruthlessly. But now the truth has arrived in a big

way. Anybody who does not accept this truth will be severely dealt with. Nothing

takes anyone unaware in this kingdom. It is a laid down fact, a time shall come, when

righteousness shall abound. It was revealed to Nebuchadnezzar, kingdoms shall rise

and fall, and that a kingdom shall come, which shall dominate the other kingdoms,

and the kingdom, shall endure forever. (Daniel 2:44)

When you say, man pass man, position pass power, i laugh at you. Why should you

make such a statement? The right thing should be, "power pass position." what do

people use in taking your property forcefully? Is it not power? What aided the whites

in collecting our land and other things? Was it not power? What do the Mus lims use in

causing all these troubles in the world? Is it not power? Anybody who is more

powerful than you, is stronger than you, he can even swallow you up. The kingdom of

God is nothing else, but power. You could fall off from the altar and people can l augh

at you, calling you a little rat; that is exactly what is going on in the world. This

explains the reason why, Jesus the Christ spoke through Paul, "the kingdom of God is

not in words, but in power." (1st Corinthians 4:20)

GOD IS POWER

God is power. He rules with power. Nebuchadnezzar became a beast for seven years.

Pharaoh and his armies perished in the red sea. Herod was killed by just an angel.

These show, God is power. He rules with power, else he would not rule. Right now he

has come with power, love, patience, wisdom, mercy and all the virtues one could

think of. The people call him derogatory names, and the world has reached its wits

end. The Jehovah witnesses earlier prophesied about the Armageddon war. The war is

now on! If you do not call yourself to order, you will be dealt with. As you have borne

the image of the earthly, so must you also bear the image of the heavenly. You have to

practice love, peace, mercy, humility, temperance, etc. These are what will rule now.

His reign shall have no end.

The God who created the heavens and the earth has come to reign forever. There was a

house built in orlu, for forty-two years now, without being occupied by anybody, and

whoever attempted to occupy the house died off. No church or any other

establishment was able to operate in the house, but today brotherhood members have

succeeded in occupying the building, and people are shocked to their bones to see,

~ 34 ~

brotherhood members using the abandoned house. Do you think brotherhood is a

playground? Have you ever seen somebody speak so authoritatively? (Matthew 7:28-

29) native doctors surrender to this God. I want you to know; this is as a result of what was prophesied of him. Anybody who tries to rebuke a sinner openly is often treated

unruly. It is God alone who can do that successfully. You should know, whatever

happens comes at the fullness of time. Read the first lesson again.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: 1ST CORINTHIANS 15:49

"and as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the

heavenly."

THE NEW WORLD ORDER

Beloved, the above text is self-explanatory. The spirit that came from Adam w as

earthly, but it later became the quickening spirit, which was heavenly . (1st

Corinthians 15:45) because man possesses the earthly spirit, he continues doing what

is bad.

He continues doing what is forbidden. (1st Corinthians 15:45-49) in fact, nothing good

has ever been found in man. Christ the quickening spirit has arrived to change things,

to their normal state. He is the one existing now, and he is the all in all. Right now,

you have to do away with all forms of evil; else, you shall be destroyed. Th is is not

that old world, and everything must be new. So as you have borne the image of the

earthly, you should also try to bear the image of the heavenly. Love has arrived. No

more discrimination or segregation but joy prevails. He has conquered death and

hades. But for him, no one would live. He has conquered heaven and earth. He said:

"in my father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, i would have told you. I go

to prepare a place for you." (John 14:2). He has come to take us unto himself, and so nothing can raise its ugly head against his children.

Your problem is, you come to brotherhood with your old ways of life, and it is most

unfortunate. We do not require fornication, swindling, robbery, or quarreling here. We

do not require necromancy here. Do away with the old behavior, because new wine

must be put into new wineskin. Some claim, they are members of secret societies; and i

bet them, if they come here with their false power, they will meet with greater power,

and they will reach their wits end. Those who know the power in brotherhood do not

come here to pose any problem. They know the fold does not require any form of

unrighteousness. If you are sure you want to be a member of this kingdom, you have

to do away with all forms of unrighteousness.

There is a Christ servant by name mfon, who preached at her station, there is no

witchcraft, juju, and mermaid. And a pastor in the apostolic church also preached on

this topic, but unfortunately for him, the members of these cults attacked him in t he

night, and on the following morning, he found himself lying outside, naked. Afraid of

the situation, the pastor got up, and packed out of that community. This is a proof;

~ 35 ~

Christ has taken dominion over everything. He has come down to dwell with man.

Therefore, before you succeed in having any relationship with him, you have to refrain

from all forms of unrighteousness, so he may indwell you fully. I had told you, this

work is not done by money, man, or any of you, but it is done by Jehovah God and his

Christ. You are witnesses to the fact, after every Pentecostal period, some people used

to complain about one form of sickness or the other, and others died. And now you

can see, before any Pentecostal period commences, three days dry fasting must be

observed. This fasting is for the body to be serviced and prepared for the Holy Spirit.

Today, people do not encounter any problems again in brotherhood. You are on the

solid rock.

Anybody, who continues to consult oracles, kill, fight, quarrel, fornicate, tel l lies, etc.,

does not love his life. Brethren, the key to this kingdom is, for you to refrain from all

manners of evil. This is the reason why Christ said, except a man be born again, he

shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. That is also the reason why, the book "first

step to God" is given to anybody, who intends to be a member this kingdom; so, if the

person had borne any malice, had been stealing, fighting, quarreling, causing

confusion here and there, he would stop forthwith, before he is baptize d into the new

kingdom of God. When you forsake all sins, Christ will come in and dwell fully in

you.

When peter preached to the people, they were greatly moved, and when they asked

what they should do, peter told them to repent and confess their sins, th en their sins

shall be forgiven them, and that they shall receive the Holy Spirit as a gift, for this

promise is for them, their children, and their children's children. ( Acts 2:38-39). Christ can never dwell in an untidy house. He cannot go to a thief, a swindler, a fornicator,

or an adulterous person. And if Christ is not in you, it means you are empty. That is

why, when people say, a brotherhood member was stoned to death or that this or that

happened to a brotherhood member, i want you to know, that per son is not a real

brotherhood member.

Any brotherhood member, who surrenders himself fully to Christ, can never be

challenged by anybody. When people claim there is something in brotherhood; it is

true, because Jehovah God and his Christ are here. Have yo u ever been to a place

where people do not burn incense, light candles, or draw circles, but operate with

mere words? Fire can never burn you, no gun can shoot you, and nothing whatsoever

can raise its ugly head against you, if you surrender yourself to Go d. It is our lord

Jesus Christ, who is operating, nothing else.

What made God to leave Adam and eve was sin. And what has made him to come

back is, because God has said, except a spotless blood is shed, man shall not be

reconciled to God. (Hebrews 9:22) so because of that spotless blood of Christ, man has

now been reunited with God. After reuniting man with God, he has come back to

dwell with man, forever. He has come to take his glory, which existed even before the

~ 36 ~

foundations of the world were laid. (John 17:5). Since he has come to stay, all sinful acts must be eradicated. All sinners will be dealt with accordingly.

Unless you decide to forsake fornication, idolatry, and do everything according to his

own directives, you will have nothing to do with him. If you continue to sin, you are

fighting against him and the consequence is great, for it is said, "all those who do not

want him to rule over them, should be brought before him to be killed." (Luke 19:27) there is a song, which is usually sang in this fold, which states, "who is he that is

knocking at the door of my heart, it is me, Jesus Christ, the son of God, open it and let

me come in." the wording of this song confirms the scripture at revelation 3:20:

"behold, i stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I

will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." The owner of the house

is now back. Open the door for him. Drive away the spirit of fornication and theft etc.,

so he may enter and sit on the throne of his glory. Read the second lesson again.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 5:38

"but new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved."

THE DEMOLITION OF THE UNGODLY ONES

Take the example of senior sister mong. She has stayed in this fold for a long time

now, and right from the first day she was converted, she refrained from all forms of

unrighteousness; a thing which many members regard as a useless venture. If you

want to be a real member of brotherhood of the cross and star, refrain from all forms

of sinfulness, and surrender yourself wholly to Christ. If you were a member of any

secret society, withdraw your membership, and from the moment Christ indwells you,

you will have no problems of any sort. He will do everyth ing for you.

Stop searching for money. Desist from looking into the sky, expecting Christ to

descend into the world, for he is already here on earth. He is the Holy Spirit. He does

not live in any other place, but in a righteous house, (man). The house, w hich he

cleansed with his precious blood, is his dwelling place. It is said; a new wine must be

put in a new wine skin. If you refrain from all forms of unrighteousness, he will come

in and start a new life. It is said, upon all the things created by God, man is the most

ticklish. Sometime ago a man, from esene in Akwa Ibom state of Nigeria, came visiting

the father. And as usual, the father gave him a handshake. When he got home, he

confessed, he almost collapsed on the spot, after the father's handshake.

Then his co-members blamed him, for visiting the father with his juju charms. They

told him, he should not have brought them to Calabar, for they usually keep theirs

away, and even undergo fasting, before visiting the father. And added, later they

usually return to their charms. Such is man's level of understanding. Very many

people do not know, whoever comes here with evil intentions usually returns empty,

because once I give them a handshake, all evil forces are automatically discharged,

~ 37 ~

and all the charms they had at home become useless, and Christ will then take over his

"house." no matter what you do from that time, it will have no more effect.

Most members of brotherhood of the cross and star were not prepared to become

members of the fold. They came as spies, but on reaching here, the father got hold of

them, overcame them and gave them salvation. He brought to us mercy, he came to

wash and sanctify us, to change us, to make everything to become new, and to salvage

us from the bondage of the world, and make us remain with him forever. The Holy

Spirit can never make you get sick. He can never kill you, he can never make you to

become a poor or a greedy person. Rather, he came to sanctify you, make you r ich,

make you become loving, merciful and give you eternal life.

When once you are sanctified, the Holy Spirit will indwell you, and when he indwells

you, you do not have to sin again; else, you will put yourself in a more serious or

worse condition. When you see people falling sick know, they have done something

contrary to the enhancement of the glory of God; hence, the Holy Spirit departs from

them, because new wine must be put into new wineskin. The Holy Spirit does not

require any evil thing. Once you commit fornication, he leaves you and abandons the

'house,' and it will collapse. He does not get annoyed with anybody. He dwells in a

clean place. He says: “be ye therefore perfect, even as your father which is in heaven is

perfect." (Matthew 5:48)

This explains the reason why, you are told not to eat meat, fish, etc., you should not

fornicate, tell lies, begrudge, hate or commit any other sin. You are told to live

peaceably with all. A new wine must be put into new wineskin: a new spirit must

dwell, in a new flesh. This teaching is a new wine, therefore, you must abide by it, and

live according to it. Never ever say, "You do me, i do you," (avoid retaliation). Visit the juju priest no more, pour no more libations, lament and weep no more, for all these

constitute the old wine. If you do these things, the Holy Spirit will depart from you.

Since you have decided to flee from the things of the world, you must now live

according to the injunctions of the Holy Spirit. You must possess love, humility, peace,

patience, kindness, and all the virtues; and as you do this, you will have no more

problems. You must put new wine into new wineskin, for it to be preserved. But if

new wine is put into old wineskin, it will burst and the wine will spill on the floor.

You are told not to kill, steal, fornicate, hate, or commit any other sin; yet, you still

commit these sins. Who is to be blamed? Have you seen why many of you have

problems, and why you cannot enjoy this kingdom?

Right from today, the entire world, even babies have the chance to come and save their

lives. This great "fellowship" is for everybody. Tell your brothers and sisters, members of all churches to come, and hear this gospel and be saved. You can never see God

elsewhere. His dwelling place is your body, and whosoever refrains from all forms of

sin; surely, dwells in him. No matter where you may be, he is there with you and

~ 38 ~

makes good use of you. Remember the statement which Christ made: "but he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal

damnation." (Mark 3:29).

THIS IS THE ERA OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

One of our spiritual choruses goes thus, "spirit of God, come and lead us aright, for it

was written, you will lead us."

immediately this song is rendered, the spirit comes in

majestically to lead. He rules and controls everything in the world now, but the world

knows this not. This is the reason; all countries of the world seem to be with p roblems.

They have rejected the Holy Spirit and his injunctions. They have refused to hand over

every affair into his care. The entire world is filled with the old wine, they study

science and medicine etc., and they reject the word of God. This is the rea son why; the

Americans do not know what is going on.

The entire world does not know God, but the children of God know him, and they

obey his injunctions, because a new wine is put in a new wineskin. You all have cause

to rejoice, because the Holy Spirit is dwelling with you, and you should go into the

world, and spread this good news, because nothing on earth can tamper with you. For

it is written in 1st Corinthians 3:6-17: "know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall

God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are." whoever defiles the

temple of God, will be destroyed, because our body is the temple of God.

You are not to drink wine or take drugs, you are not to eat fish or meat, or tell lies;

you are not to begrudge, for all these cause problems for you. You are no t to continue

in the same way of life, which you lived in the time past, when you were not yet a

believer. When our lord Jesus Christ said, we should be born anew, he meant, we

should practice the words of God. It is these words that remold us, and sanctif y us,

whereby we become new creatures. If you harken to the words of God, and practice

them accordingly, you will live a problem free life, and the glory of God will manifest

in you.

The spirit of God cannot be found elsewhere. Christ cannot be found else where, except

in brotherhood of the cross and star. All the church denominations and the so -called

born-again organizations are filled with devilish and elementary spirits. The spirit of

fornication, spirit of stealing, etc., are all found there. You can b ear witness to the fact,

those places are not the dwelling place of God, because the members have all failed to

sanctify their hearts; and God therefore can never dwell in them. They truly bear the

image of the earthly. Our lord Jesus Christ said, he did n ot come for the righteous, but

to call the unrighteous, so they may repent, and the father confirmed his statement

when he said, he did not send Christ to judge the world, but to save her.

Our lord Jesus Christ said: "for judgment i am come into this world , that they which

see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind." ( john 9:39) for

~ 39 ~

saying this, the Pharisees asked him, whether they were also blind, and he answered them, if they were to be blind, they would have no problems, but since th ey claim not

to be blind, they will perish with their sins. Similar to the Pharisees, the churches

claim to be too wise, but they keep blaspheming against the holy spirit, oblivious to

the warning against this unGodly act, as contained in mark 3:29: "but he that shall blaspheme against the holy ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal

damnation." read the golden text again;

GOLDEN TEXT: JAMES 3:17

"but the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be

entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy."

THERE IS NEED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS

Have you noticed any division in this fold? Here, there is neither rich nor poor, for we

are all the same. The only necessary thing is for one to sanctify oneself. Flee

fornication, drinks, annoyance, idolatry, telling lies etc. We all must be filled with the

virtues of God. This is the new wine referred to. Everyone has to be merciful to one

another, love every creature, be patient with one another, and live peacefully with

everybody. Do not impute sins on people, and always forgive one another. Do not be

ticklish with others. Do not get annoyed with anybody, do not curse anybody, and do

not disgrace anybody. Try at all times to be filled with love, peace, mercy, and

kindness. Do not shun others.

Do not seek for people to work for you, always be ready to work for others. Surrender

your life for the redemption of others, do everything for others free of charge. Heal,

baptize, pray and preach to people free of charge.

in this kingdom there is no

favoritism, no discrimination, no segregation or preferential treatment. If a governor

or a president for instance wants to worship with the father, he has to share the pews

with the rest of the members. No special section would be reserved for him. He would

even be made to sit with the children or women.

This is the kingdom of God where, there is only one flock under one shepherd. The

world hates brotherhood of the cross and star and its members, and they claim we are

insulting. And the question is why should we respect sinners? What has light got to do

with darkness? I often say and i am repeating it now, "an acclaimed sinner in

brotherhood of the cross and star is the best man in the world." the children of God

render a song, which has it, "where ever the spirit of God dwells, there dwells lib erty."

(2nd Corinthians 3:17)

here there is no cheating we are all one. Nothing like medical

treatment is here. By mere mentioning of the word let, all your problems are over. In

this kingdom, there is nothing like hunger, no loneliness. We are all one. All those

who charge for prayers, preaching or any spiritual work should pray fervently for

themselves. They are in real trouble and can never go scot -free.

~ 40 ~

Nothing of this sort is permitted here, and whoever does it must be punished, for a new wine cannot be preserved in an old wineskin. Whoever works for a fee is not a

good worker, but a hireling. Our lord Jesus Christ and his disciples worked freely, and

they received their reward bountifully. Believe, whoever gives will surely receive.

Members of the crusaders fellowship know this fact. As such they have been donating

greatly. The crusaders do not charge any money for anything they do for others.

Members of other churches charge exorbitantly for any work done for people. If they

ask you to pay forty thousand for instance and you p lead with them to reduce the

charge, they will openly tell you, God does not want them to reduce the amount. And i

ask: which God? Is God poor? What does he need money for? Have you seen man's

folly? Let it be known, whatever amount is collected from you is not for God, but

solely for the person who collected the amount. Everything is done here free.

Baptism is free. You were called free, and had been ordained free. Your sickness is

healed free, food is given freely, even accommodation here is free, but in the world,

there is no free thing. Everything is done through money. If you do not give bribes,

you cannot be regarded as anything. These are old wines, which are poisonous. In this

kingdom, if you decide to steal, that is your own problem, because that is an old wine.

We have nothing to do with sins. Our duty and in fact, obligation, is to do that, which

is good to everybody. We do not need anybody's praises; we do not seek for positions.

Our work is to help others. Give them love, peace, humility, truth, etc. I do not preach

against any church or persons. All I do is to make known to them, where their errors

lie. Humility leads to success and glory. And so the first thing you must possess is

humility, followed by patience, kindness, mercy, truth and love. There should be no

quarrel, no annoyance.

Our lord Jesus Christ said: "father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And

they parted his raiment, and cast lots." (Luke 23:34) I too, I am saying the same thing. I came to deliver you from your sinful ways of life. Have you seen the long patience

possessed by God? It is said, "Whoever wants to be the leader should first make

himself a slave." (Mark 9:35). Have you not seen this being practiced here? All hands are on deck towards the development of the vineyard of God. The lawyers, the royal

highnesses and even the president, must work for the upliftment of the father's work.

Everybody must go into the vineyard, and work with their resources. Everybody must

listen to and practice the gospel.

Do not be a burden to another person, and do not act as a stumbling block to ano ther

person. Do the bit you can and God will bless you accordingly. God is never stupid.

The teaching sent to man from above is for everyone, to be helpful to one another. Do

not disgrace God or man; live a good life. Do not commit fornication, and do not

involve yourself in idolatry. This kingdom believes in no other thing but love.

Whenever you have any problems, call on the father, and he will come to your rescue.

~ 41 ~

If you visit the hospital or the necromancers, then you have not surrendered yourself to God. When you cannot exhibit any virtue, then know you have failed to practice the

word of God. The bible states that: "for whosoever shall call upon the name of the lord

shall be saved (Romans 10:13).” The question is, how will people call on his name,

when they do not have faith in him, and how shall they have faith in whom, they have

not heard anything of, and how shall they hear about him, when there is no preacher;

and how shall one go to preach, unless he is sent? (Romans 10:15) faith comes through

hearing the words of God, and practicing the words of God. ( Romans 10:17) if you

decide to forget about your old ways of life, and hand over yourself wholly to God,

then you will stand on a solid rock. You will not encounter any more problems; But if

you fail to practice the words of God, you will go as you came here, empty handed;

your number of years notwithstanding.

An old wine and an old wineskin represent the teachings of the world, whi le a new

wine and a new wine skin, connotes the teachings of our lord Jesus Christ. And no one

can compare the two teachings. It is said, the University of Edinburgh is using

brotherhood books for studies. And those books are said to be inadequate for the

studies. But the books written from this fold are more useful than those written in

other churches. The churches teach worldly things, while brotherhood of the cross and

star teaches the heavenly things. This confirms the scriptural statement, he that is f rom

heaven teaches heavenly things. If only the entire world would have love and peace,

and shun segregation and other sinful acts, then the world would be a better place to

live in. Unfortunately, the world holds on to these unwholesome acts, at the expen se

of the words of God. But there is repercussion. It is said; a word is enough for the

wise. May God bless his holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

SUBJUGATION OF POWERS AND PRINCIPALITIES

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 28:18

"and Jesus came and spake unto them saying, all power is given unto me in heaven

and on earth."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 24:48-49

"and ye are witnesses of these things. And behold I send the promise of my father

upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on

high."

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREWS 2:8-9

"thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in

subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But we see Jesus , who

was made a little lower than the angels for suffering of death, crowns with glory and

Honor; that he by the grace of God should taste of death for every man."

THE INCOMPREHENSIBLE POWER OF CHRIST

The text read to you highlight the problems of the ent ire world. They also point to one

fact hidden from everyone. Some of you seek for power in roots, leaves, in rivers and

inside the soil. Is power found in these things? Our lord Jesus Christ is the source of

power because every power in heaven and on earth has been given unto him. He is the

Christ of God. Christ is just one in perfect control of this power. All other persons who

call themselves "the Christ" are liars and fake. These persons are susceptible to all human frailties and vicissitudes, such as lies, cunningness, disobedience, greed,

deceit, fighting, sickness, death, among others. Our lord Jesus Christ is above all such

human factors.

If you claim to be the Christ, do you therefore have any power? God himself is power

and it is for that reason that he has been able to bestow all power unto our lord Jesus

Christ, his only begotten. This is underscored by the scripture; "for the kingdom of

God is not in word, but in power (1st Corinthians 4:20)."

This generation is indeed a lucky one. The prophets of old, like Elijah, used to go to

the top of mountains, cemetery, and various other places to obtain power. They also

undertook rigorous fasting and prayer in order to obtain power. All these were

fruitless exercises. Man takes delight in seeking for power where it is not available.

Many who have initiated themselves into different societies for the purpose of

obtaining power wither away like dry leaves.

Many persons, and even church denominations do declare Satan and indeed, certain

individuals as being very powerful. If Satan or man could be so powerful, how much

more our lord Jesus Christ who all powers have been given to? What about God

himself who is the fountain of power? Some people declare a certain witch doctor to

~ 43 ~

be very powerful. If juju is so powerful, what about our lord Jesus Christ and God? It becomes even very astonishing when it is believed and peddled that a certain pastor

or preacher who died in the church was killed by mermaid, ghost or witchcraft. Do all

these things really exist? And if they do exist, are they really powerful as people think

they are?

THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Brotherhood of the cross and star does not believe that any other power is in existence

other than the power of God. It is the father himself who does the work h ere. That

explains why the world has continued to be confounded over the magnitude of power

in this kingdom. Many people, out of ignorance, go ahead to allege that the power

here is demonic. Power seekers who have written to India and the rest of the

acclaimed powerful countries have been referred to brotherhood of the cross and star,

34 ambo street, Calabar- Nigeria. What do you think you stand to gain by vaccinating

your body with some black powder for spiritual protection or going to the grave yard,

river bank for invocations?

I now charge you to pray fervently so that God will Reveal the kingdom and

brotherhood of the cross and Star to you. That should be your major request and

prayer. When you request for money, husband, wife, children and other mundane

things, what do you intend to do with them and where would they lead you to? Here

is God with you, but do you recognize him? Some people ask for money, husband,

wife, etc., to enable them do his work. Is the work of God done with these things? Do

they enhance one's ability to serve God? Have they anything to do with righteousness?

These things that you request for are ephemeral and unprofitable. If you ask for

knowledge, what do you think would become of your knowledge if it ceases to be?

Take the case of Iraq which boasted of unlimited Military might, for example. This was

because of her Stock piled armaments. When Saddam Hussein, the Iraqi president and

his men met a tougher power which they could not withstand, they surrendered.

During the Nigerian civil war also, it was the plan of the federal troops to bomb 26

Mbukpa Road. At the fullness of time, the father pronounced the word and they could

not execute their plans. This therefore brings to nought the popular saying that

position pass power. It is power that surpasses every position. This further explains

why our lord Jesus Christ was able to conquer the entire world. He had what the

world lacks- power. The world has money, position, and a whole lot of material

things, but not power.

Can you see now why the entire world is afraid of brotherhood of the cross and star?

Even if the entire world gathers together with all their weapons, a little child in

brotherhood of the cross and star clad in his or her white robe is capable of sending

fear right into their spines. Do you think the world fears brotherhood of the cross and

star for nothing? They know that there is invisible power here in the fold. It is only

~ 44 ~

you members of brotherhood of the cross and star who are ignorant of the power that is inherent in you.

For those of you who complain that you have not benefited from anything ever since

you were baptized into brotherhood of the cross and star, is it true? Has he not

bestowed power upon you as he promised? The disciples of our lord Jesus Christ were

asked to go and wait in Jerusalem for this power. However, in this era, the reverse is

the case. Right now, this power is Conferred on all and sundry throughout the

universe.

Many testimonies and stories have been told to confirm the wonderful work of God to

his children through this power. What then have you done to express your joy for this

wonderful work? Are you not instead lamenting and crying for mundane things?

When people in the orthodox churches still pray for the second coming of our lord

Jesus Christ, is it true that he had gone away from the world? He is with his Children

always. As he had done to the gentiles so has he done to his children in this

generation. He remains the only savior. God's existence is beyond imagination: Many

people imagine God to be a very mighty man with beard down to his knees and seated

in a magnificent chair in his throne with a very beautiful staff. Our lord Jesus Christ

said:" i am the vine, ye are the branches: he that abideth in me, and i in him, the same

bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing," (john 15:5).

It is hard to believe why the world is afraid of brotherhood of the cross and star except

you happen to witness an episode involving a Brotherhood of the Cross and Star

members and the world. A local adage says that “an ordinary mortal cannot see the

youths of ghosts, except he goes to the hades." Man, clothing or money does not

constitute Christ. Christ is power, absolute power. It becomes rather pathetic when

you say that there is power in juju, witchcraft, mermaid and all that. It means that you

should go out into the world to preach to them about this truth and power.

When john was in prison and the news about the wonderful words of our lord Jesus

Christ reached him, he sent his disciples to enquire from our lord Jesus Christ whether

he was the true messiah or whether they should expect another person. In his reply,

Christ had this to say: "go and shew john again these things which ye do hear and see:

the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the leapers are cleansed, and the deaf

hear, the dead are raised up and the poor has the gospel preached to them. And

blessed is he whosoever shall not be offended in me." (Matthew 11:4-6).

The only testimony therefore that you bear to the world is about this kingdom and its

glory. Many people, even within the fold of brotherhood of the cross and star do not

believe in this power. They think that the power is derived from the Biakpan water or

holy oil, and so on. That is not true. The source of the power is not in the world. This

is why brotherhood of the cross and star has been performing wonderful feats

~ 45 ~

successfully and carrying out seemingly impossible assignments. This has been the major source of mass baptism into brotherhood of the cross and st ar. It is strictly the

work of the almighty father.

That is why i declare to you that i am not the doer of this work. I do not even exist: it

is the power of God that controls the high seas, the wind, the earth, and the whole

universe. There is none other power than his, and there is no other source of salvation

apart from him. The entire world is expecting the messiah to descend from the skies.

They forget that he has promised to in the night like a thief. Has he not come now like

a Thief? Repeat the first lesson:

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 28:18

“And Jesus came and spake unto them saying, all powers is given unto me in heaven

and on earth.”

It is not out of ignorance for people to attribute this power to the brotherhood of the

cross and star? It is only God who is powerful. He is everything in all Things. If we

were wise enough to know this simple Truth, we would all bow and worship him. He

stated clearly that whoever resists and disobeys the powers That be, do so to God and

consequently has to be punished for that. If he has said that all powers in Heaven and

on earth have been given to him, why then do you need to consult an oracle, a

soothsayer, or a juju priest for power and protection? Many people have declared

themselves the Christ, they do not survive the Test of time but will wither away in a

very short time. Some who even declare themselves God find themselves in prison or

are conquered by various infirmities. Can the true God be plagued by any calamity?

God definitely cannot seek help of any sort from man.

AN ILLUSTRATION

There was a certain man named Epharaoh. He was so powerful that he refused to obey

or respect any person, except, according to him, whoever was more powerful than

himself. Incidentally, two kings were fighting and when he learnt about it, he met both

of them and declared that he would only obey and respect the winner. Between the

two erring cities was a big river that could only be crossed with a canoe. The man

decided to wait by the river bank to carry people across, over to eith er side. In

crossing people to either side of the river, he only stretched out his arms with twenty -

five persons standing on each arm. With only two steps, he crossed the river with fifty

persons on his arms. He continued like that to the amazement of all. God is nothing

but power.

Epharaoh served as the safest ferry for passengers on both banks of the river. One fine

day, the sky suddenly changed and he heard some sound in the clouds. When he

listened attentively, it was his name called," Epharaoh, Ephara oh, come and carry me

over." when he closely looked, he saw the person who was calling on him approaching

~ 46 ~

the river side. He was a very small young man. As the young man moved closer,

Epharaoh discovered a strong wind and a loud sound of thunder accompanyi ng him

(the man). When the young man finally got to the bank of the river, he asked Epharaoh

to cross him over. With his enormous physical strength and seeing the very small

stature of his young man, Epharaoh objected to ferrying him alone. He said that it

would amount to a waste of time and Effort since the minimum number of passengers

he normally ferried was fifty. The young man pleaded with Epharaoh to ferry him

over.

He finally decided to ferry only him across. As he went down to enable the young man

conveniently climb unto His hand, Epharaoh lost his balance because of the weight of

the young man. As he moved close to the palm tree for support but he still fell. An

exercise which Used to take him less than a second to accomplish, Epharaoh spent

three hours to ferry the young man. When they finally crossed with much difficulties,

Epharaoh held on to the young man and prevented him from leaving. Sweating

profusely, he declared before the young man that he was the kind of person he

Epharaoh was looking for in order to worship. The question is who was that young

man? He was our lord, later called by his master, Christopher, meaning Christ - over,

for ferrying "Christ over" the river.

GOD AND HIS ELECTS HAVE CONQUERED THE WORLD

God finds delight in capturing and subduing the so called powerful men to himself.

Many of the members of Brotherhood of the cross and star did not get baptized on

their own volition, but during or after an encounter with members of brotherhood of

the cross and star or directly with the father. In an attempt to try the leader of

brotherhood of the cross and star, they were convinced and so baptized. That is how

people like Professor Assasu Inyang Ibom and the rest of the people got baptized into

brotherhood of the cross and star. If you believe strongly that this power does not rest

in the holy oil or Biakpan water but in the father himself, you will not be led astray.

Many places and various persons are declared very powerful and many People troop

to such places and persons for salvation and protection. You should know right now

that there is nothing any person can do to salvage you. There is no power in water,

leaves, bark of trees, roots, stones, or any other thing that is man -made. God is the

only source and giver of power. If therefore you believe in Him, you are saved. This is

the only power in brotherhood of the cross and star. It is even recorded that "he that

believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but He that believeth not shall be damned

(mark 16:16)."

Some people refuse to be baptized into brotherhood of the cross and star because

according to them they do not wish to be baptized twice. Such people are ignorant of

the fact that true baptism is the direct source to power and wisdom. From the day you

~ 47 ~

are baptized, you have accepted Christ into your soul as your personal Savior and you are bestowed with tremendous power and Holy Spirit. Repeat the second lesson:

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 24:48-49

"And ye are witnesses of these things. And behold, I send the promise of the father

upon you: but tarry ye in Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high."

THERE IS POWER IN B.C.S.

Has the above passage come to pass or not? It is true that there is something in

brotherhood of the cross and Star-the power of God. Otherwise, what would have

made its members so free, fearless and happy? In the world, people are filled with

fear, they feel insecure and they are in bondage. The kingdom of this world has now

become the kingdom of Jehovah God and his Christ. Christ constitutes the Power in

his kingdom, our joy and pride. Christ is unchangeable and unshakable. In the

worldly Arrangements, champions exist in various professions who reign only briefly

and are beaten by new entrants. The case of our lord Jesus Christ is not like that, just

as it is the case of this kingdom.

This kingdom has come to stay, so also is the reign of our lord Jesus Christ There is

therefore no wisdom in going on pilgrimage to Mecca or Jerusalem. What do you go to

do there to achieve that which is spiritual? There is nothing in these places that has to

do with salvation and Mortification of the flesh. What did our lord Jesus Christ tell the

Samaritan woman that the kingdom of God is like? In what form did he tell her the

true worshippers of God shall worship him? When people Allege at times that

somebody wants to kill you through Witchcraft, juju, or any diabolical means, I just

sympathize with your ignorance.

There is nothing mundane that can overcome or harm you. It was for the purpose of

eradicating this ignorance that he commissioned his disciples saying: "...go ye into all

the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 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, they shall cast out devils, they shall speak with new

tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, shall not hurt

them; they shall lay hand on the sick and they shall recover.”

Have all those signs not followed you this day? It is rather pathetic that members of

brotherhood of the cross and star themselves do not know the power they Are

endowed with. That is why instead of recognizing and fully utilizing the power

inherent in them, they go about consulting necromancer s and native doctors for One

thing or the other. Of all the wonderful works that were done by our lord Jesus Christ

in this era, none of you had endeavored to go out into the world to testify. Instead of

praising the Holy Spirit for his goodness and power, you rather praise and glorify

human beings, stones, heavens, ghosts, among other inanimate things.

~ 48 ~

THE SYMBOLS OF POWER

The white soutane that you put on is filled with power; the songs that you sing here

are full of power, the Hands you shake with a fellow human with the spiritual

greeting-peace, are all full of power and you are altogether an embodiment of power.

So do not fear anybody or anything in this world, but what you should fear is sin.

Practice brotherly love. There is nothing any person, angel , tree, or anything

whatsoever can do to you. You are the Christ of God and the reservoir of God's power.

The Holy Spirit has come in this era to subdue all principalities and powers. There

were many Forests, sections of streams and rivers in which human Beings dreaded to

go nearer, not even going into these places for fear of evil. What is the situation today?

In fact, the entire inhabitants of the world were held in bondage by various demonic

forces inside the forests in the form of hippopotamus and the rest of other dangerous

animals. The arrival of the Holy Spirit has completely put an end to their nefarious

activities.

Many believers have used the initials O.O.O. to solve their problems. Your major

problem as i can see is that of faithlessness, and it is your undoing. If you were to

possess the least of faith, you would not be angry when you are abused, let alone

retaliate. You would not retort when accused, you would always pray for the good of

your enemies. You would not get angry over anything you are accused falsely.

Neither would you weep nor lament for anything. This work is not done by man,

woman, stone or anything for that matter. It is the work of the Holy Spirit. Our lord

Jesus Christ has conquered tribulations, hunger, sickness, and death. H e has taken

complete control and dominion in the entire world and solved all our problems. Read

the golden text below.

GOLDEN TEXT: HEBREWS 2:8-9

“Thou hast put all things in subjection under his Feet. For in that he put all in

subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not

yet all things put under him. But we see Jesus, Who was made a little lower than the

angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor that he by the grace of

God should taste death for every man."

OMNIPRESENT POWER

In your estimation, do you think this power terminates only here in Africa? Is it

obtainable only in Europe? Is it found inside water, or air? It is found everywhere and

it engulfs everything that is created. Anybody who attem pts to indulge in the

preparation of charms and diabolical practices is wasting his time and energy.

Whoever initiates himself into any secret Society or goes anywhere to seek for power

or help, does so in vain. Our lord Jesus Christ has taken Dominion in the entire world.

It is rather pitiful that many people lament that they cannot see visions, dream

dreams, offer prayers and extract charms.

~ 49 ~

What do you think these activities have to do with the kingdom as far as this power is concerned? Before our lord Jesus Christ, nothing is difficult. He said, you should call

upon him in times of trouble, for, he will answer you and anything you ask in his

Name will be done for you. It is for that reason, we in Brotherhood of the cross and

star pray in the name of our lord Jesus Christ, in the blood of our lord Jesus Christ,

even now and forevermore. We do everything in his name. He is the nucleus and

center of all power. He also assured us that anything we ask in his name, he shall

intercede on our behalf and his father will do it for us.

This power is so great and overwhelming that it subdues the thief, the liar, the

prostitute, the murderer and any form of sinner. The entire world has since been

searching for the source of this power but have not been able to see. Yo ur problems, as

members of the brotherhood of the cross and star, are those of unbelief, disobedience,

faithlessness, lies, robbery, anger, and indulgence in drinking, smoking, snuffing and

diabology. Incidentally, Christ abhors such things. His power over whelms such

characteristics. He alone takes dominion over you and all things, if you surrender

yourself to him. You will have all things. If you surrender to him you will have peace,

good health, prosperity, patience, food and everything, for he is all in all for us all.

It is not surprising that brotherhood of the cross and star, without any musical

instruments sings most melodiously than other church denominations, using

Instruments of orchestra? Therefore, if you are asked about the source of power, refe r

such a person to our lord Jesus Christ and none other. Believe in him and be baptized

in the name of the father, the son and of the Holy Ghost. You will be empowered to do

grater works than what Christ did. It is for that reason he has charged us all to go and

make the entire world his disciples, baptizing them in the name of the father, the son

and of the Holy Spirit.

Therefore, for anybody to allege that he has not got power, money, or is not learned

enough to preach the gospel, is untenable. It is the power of God that does all the

work and not money or any material thing. You are empowered to go into any place

and preach the gospel. Think not what to eat, to drink, for the father is all sufficient

and kind. The basic thing you to thank God always for is the holy spirit which he sent

down to inhabit his children.

The food he has given to you and other material things are only ephemeral and

inglorious. The only thing that is paramount is the Holy Spirit. Do not boast of

beautiful wife or handsome husband. Do not boast of your children, money or any

other mundane thing but let your boast be in our lord Jesus Christ and his power.

Praise him at all times and in everything. Glorify his name before the people, preach

the gospel to the people and hail Christ t hroughout the universe. May God bless his

holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE HIDDEN MURDERERS

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 5:21

"Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shall not kill; and whosoever

shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 26:52

"Then said Jesus unto him, put up again thy sword in his place, for all they that take

the sword shall perish with the sword."

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 13:10

"He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword

must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience of the saints."

Brethren, the texts read to you form the theme of our gospel today. It appears to me

that all the inhabitants of the world prefer death to life. You indulge in diabology,

hatred, stealing, fornication, and killing while at the same time you still go to church.

Have you not realized that whoever kills will himself be killed? You indul ge in

abortion, kidnapping, poisoning people and murdering people through various means

yet, you expect God to spare your life. When you hire a mercenary to kill another

person, have you not heard that whosoever kills shall be killed? If you poison

somebody or eliminate somebody by any means, have you not heard that whosoever

murders shall himself be murdered?

It is said, prevention is better than cure. You have planned evil against someone, yet

you continue to pray God to spare your life. How can you preve nt yourself from

reaping the results of the evils you have committed? Whatever means you use to kill

someone, the same means shall be used to kill you. As political activities are on,

people will do everything to be elected into one office or the other. Kn ow it that

whatever you do unto others shall in turn be done unto you. If you kill your

contestant so that you can be elected unopposed, or so that you will be crowned as a

chief or a paramount ruler, know that you will be killed also. If you eliminate you r

friend to enable you marry his wife, you will also be eliminated by another person to

enable him marry your wife. If you get into somebody's house and kill him in order to

have a chance to burglarize his house, your house will also be burglarized in like

manner.

FOUR COMMANDMENTS BELONG TO GOD WHILE SIX BELONG TO MAN

Of the Ten Commandments, four belong to God while six are assigned to man for his

life's protection while on earth. You may ask why the disciples of Our Lord Jesus

Christ were tortured and killed but they refused to retaliate. They did not retaliate

because of their belief and conviction in: "what you sow is what you reap." Can you

realize the source of death unto the inhabitants of the world? People kill and are killed

~ 51 ~

in return. They do all sorts of things to others and they receive same in return. Our Lord Jesus Christ who gives us these laws, keeps them. He who gives these laws

instructed His disciples not to be harmful unto any person. He instructed them not to

kill, hate, discriminate, or do anything harmful to anybody's life. Why do you strive

for eternal life while you frame others with lies to be killed? Every person wants to

apply force in dealing with another man.

This is your personal proposition. Do you know what is in store for you ? You fast and

pray that you may have eternal life, prosper and be healthy, yet, you continue to hate,

quarrel, maim and kill your fellow brethren. Are these the things that will lead you

unto eternal life, prosperity and good health? You enlisted in the a rmy purposely to

kill others, yet, you are expecting eternal life from God. Have you not realized that

whoever kills any person with a club or a machete or a gun or any instrument of

killing somebody has committed murder and shall be killed also? After all , is it not

said that there are many ways of killing a rat without touching its tail? If you know

that somebody's wife is the bread winner in the family and her absence is capable of

rendering the family useless and helpless, if you go ahead and snatch the wife away

from him and he dies, know that you have committed murder and you shall also die.

ALL ACTIONS OF MAN ARE DIRECTED TOWARDS KILLINGS

This gospel reflects the activities of all the inhabitants of the whole universe. All your

actions and speeches are directed towards killing. With whatever instrument you use

to kill another person, the same shall be used to kill you. When you complain that

there is plenty of deaths in the world today, have you forgotten that all your actions

are directed towards killing? All your actions are directed at your being rich.

Consequently, you are asked to offer many persons as sacrificial lambs. If you go

ahead and offer people to be killed, have you not heard that whoever kills will be

killed? If you have some misunderstanding with a friend or another community and

instead of settling the difference amicably, you decide to kill him, or them, do you

think you will live? Can you see why Our Lord Jesus Christ asked all murderers to

refrain from such acts? Whatever comes to yo u is a repercussion of your deeds. It is

pathetic to find a lawyer, an engineer, a governor, and an administrator, claiming to

know much about engaging in these sordid affairs.

GOD PROMISES EVERYONE ETERNAL LIFE

What God promises everybody is eternal life. But if you go about killing one another,

where do you expect to get eternal life? Do you not see that it has eluded you? What

does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his life? (Mark 8:36). When you

kill, steal, fornicate, and commit all forms of vices, where will you derive life? Fasting

and prayer after committing the vices cannot afford you eternal life.

~ 52 ~

Some people allege that Satan is very powerful. This is not true. God alone is

powerful. Your problems and tribulations are caused by kill ing others and not by

anything else. You are equally blessed by God therefore, you should not kill. Turn

away from these vices and give every person a chance to live. If you commit abortion,

be it a week's pregnancy, you have killed a full- fledged human being and you have to

be killed also. The most important thing is eternal life which is God's promise to

mankind. You therefore have to refrain from all the vices in order to have eternal life.

Whosoever indulges in any sinful act is covered with darkness. If somebody is

indebted to you and you use any crafty way to obtain your money, possibly by killing

him, know that you will be killed also.

JACOB CURSED SIMEON AND LEVI BECAUSE OF KILLINGS

The Israelites till today are still engaged in warfare because of t he killings they had

committed. Jacob and his two sons, Simeon and Levi, and his daughters, were on a

journey and they decided to tarry a while in a certain city. Incidentally the son of the

king of that city had an affair with Jacob's daughter, a sister t o Simeon and Levi, and

put her in a family way. When Jacob and his sons got to know about this they became

angry and they wanted to make trouble. The king pleaded with them and he promised

to do anything to appease them.

Moreover, he promised to marry their daughter for his son. The king and his family

were told to be circumcised and they obeyed. But at night Simeon and Levi went into

the city secretly and they killed all the males. That was why when Jacob was about to

die, he assembled his twelve children and told them what would happen to each of

them. He condemned Ruben to abject poverty for defiling his matrimonial bed. That is

why persons from this lineage can never prosper throughout their lives, even if they

live in a bank. Unto Simeon and Levi, he told them that because they had committed

murder, his soul had nothing to do with them and that the sword would not depart

from their side.

Do not think that God has anything to do with those who engage in warfare and kill

their neighbors and afterwards, go to church to praise God for being with them. They

are simply murderers. When a soldier thanks God for being with him in the war front,

do you think God has anything to do with war and killing? Once you have undertaken

to murder, death always stands before you. It is just like taking medicine after death.

If you want your life to be preserved, you have to refrain from killing. If you are

looking for eternal life, you have to refrain from killing.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 5:21

"Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shall not kill; and whosoever

shall kill shall be in danger of judgment."

~ 53 ~

EVERYTHING YOU KILLED WILL TESTIFY AGAINST YOU

Brethren, have you heard the law of Nature? If you kill, you will be killed. If you kill

somebody and claim to have done so accidentally, another person will also kill you

accidentally. If you wrestle or struggle with somebody and he dies in the process,

know that by the same means will you be killed. If you kill somebody through

poisoning, it is through poisoning that you will also die. That is why God has warned

us to refrain from killing another person so that we may not be killed. God has

nothing to do with murder, hatred, blackmail, and indeed, any vice.

Right now, you have initiated into various secret societies, you have decided to live

under water and in the mid-air in order to escape death, but do you have life? You

have manufactured all kinds of guns, and you have other protective devices for

yourselves. Have you been able to protect yourselves? You have organized the police,

army and other forms of security agencies to protect your life and property, so long as

you have committed murder, nothing will prevent you from being murdered. On

judgment day all the animals, fishes, birds and all the insects you have killed will

testify against you. This is the right time for you to take precaution. God did not give

you power to kill or to use it in destroying life, or causing trouble. Therefore,

whosoever indulges in anything that is capable of taking life is to be pitied. No matter

how hard you may fast and pray, if you commit murder, you will also be murdered.

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS GOD HIMSELF

Brethren, you will realize that Our Lord Jesus Christ did not only come from God: he

is God himself. The wonderful works He did bear testimony of Him as God, and as

God, He had nothing to do with sin.

You console yourself that whether one does good or evil, he will die. The question is

did Our Lord Jesus Christ die? He was nailed to the cross and he was buried, and after

three days, He resurrected. Since then, He has continued to live. How can one die

when he has not killed any creature? Though Our Lord Jesus Christ said that

whosoever believes and is baptized shall be saved, and these signs shall follow them

that believe in my name, they will lift up the serpent, and it will not hurt them, if they

take any deadly thing it shall not harm them. (Mark 16:18). If you commit murder

these signs shall never follow you. I am declaring this from the highest heave n that

this has been the source of your problems and death. After killing you call on the

name of God: which God are you calling upon? Do you think He has anything to do

with murderers? If you claim that God is not in existence, who then is in existence?

Who is the owner of heaven and earth and the Creator of the dead? Heaven and earth

and everything thereof belong to God. All the sinful ones shall perish. They shall be

destroyed, and not even one person will be left. The second lesson will now be read.

~ 54 ~

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 26:52

"Then said Jesus unto him, put up again thy sword into his place for all they that take

the sword shall perish with the sword."

Brethren, did you know this? Have the rulers and kings and very important

personalities of this world known this? Have the army officers known this? That is the

problem of the entire world. As you kill, you will also be killed. It is said that, it is

through the sins of one person that sins reigned in the world, so has the righteou sness

of one person brought salvation to mankind. The sick, the orphans, the poor, the

widow and the rest of the persons will be saved but the murderers will not be saved.

But for God's love and mercy, the Nigerian Civil War of 1966 would have degenerated

into a third world war; and, but for the kindness of God, the entire world would have

been stuck with calamity because of murder. That is why He is appealing to everyone

to refrain from murder and have eternal life. If you abide by God's instructions and

refrain from killing, this generation will be saved. Our Lord Jesus Christ promised to

send us the Comforter if we love Him. He did not promise those who will love Him

any mundane thing, but eternal life.

REFRAIN FROM KILLING SO AS TO BE SAVED

I want this gospel to be reproduced and distributed to all parts of Nigeria, especially

as the ban on politics has been lifted, people will start killing their brethren. God is

advising the whole world now so that those who have not indulged in killing may

refrain from it and for those who have already killed to know that they will be judged.

Every other sin you commit will be forgiven you; but if you commit murder, you will

not be forgiven in this generation nor the ones to come. When I look at you my heart

bleeds, especially when I see how people organize themselves into pressure groups to

rob, maim, swindle, and kill and destroy people's properties all in the name of politics.

YOU WILL NOT BE SAVED IF YOU CALL UPON GOD AFTER YOU HAVE KILLED

If you do not hate, kill or poison somebody, no person will hate you or kill you. Once

you have committed murder, you will surely be killed. That was why after Cain had

killed his brother Abel, a mark was made on his forehead so that nobody would kill

him because he had killed himself already. Whatever name you will like to call, God

does not save you. Once you have committed murder, you will have to die. That

explains why Our Lord Jesus Christ overcame the world and was given eternal life. He

committed no murder. That is why He has taught that we should not kill because any

person who kills will be killed. Whoever calls upon the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ

and commits murder shall be killed also. His name cannot help you because He has

warned you to refrain from murder.

~ 55 ~

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 13:10

"He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword

must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and faith of the saints."

Brethren, you have to take note of this import ant statement. Whosoever takes another

person into captivity shall himself be taken into captivity. Since after creating the

entire world, God gave man the superintendence over every other creation man has to

do just that. Whether you like to fast, pray, and do anything else, that will not stop

man from ruling. In the same token, any person who commits murder, let him pray or

fast or sing or lament as much as he may, he will be killed also. For this reason, refrain

from killing, backbiting, envying, and looking at people scornfully. You have to

respect and love one another. That is why Christ advised us to love one another even

as he loves us.

THE LUCKIEST GENERATION

Revelation 6:8 says, "And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and ..." revelation chapter nine also instructs that no leaf, no herb, or tree should be destroyed; but that all the

human beings who do not have the mark of the Lord on their foreheads should be

forewarned and killed. No other generation has been so lucky like this one because the

Holy Spirit is physically present on the earth. His presence on earth has brought

salvation unto you. That is why you are being advised to refrain from murder so that

you will have eternal life. It is a pathetic situation that somebody who professes to

have known the truth engages in hatred, killing, stealing, fornication, division and

selfishness. Even if you commit suicide, you will have to be punished.

IT IS MAN WHO WILL RULE THE WORLD

Psalm one says, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of th e ungodly,

nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful." That

explains to you the expectation from man, to do everything to preserve another life.

God Himself said during creation, let us create man in our own image and like ness. He

then created man and gave him the superintendence over all other things in the world.

To which angel has God ever told He has begotten him, thou art my son? It is man

alone that God has told, you are my son, today have I begotten thee. If man were to be

nothing, why would God have come down to stay with him? If you take delight in

telling lies, stealing, hatred and saying you cannot worship a human being, or fear any

person, what are you good for? Why not do everything in your ability to sustain an d

promote man? The angel questioned who is man that God should dwell with him? ( Ps

8:4, Heb. 2:6). Of all the things created by God man is the highest, even greater than

the angels. Man means the image of God. We should love one another, obey God and

give Him his due reverence. Do not rub shoulders with Him. Do not use the power

God has given you to kill or to do harm to anything created by God. If you do that you

~ 56 ~

will be killed also. It is said a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise, let those who have ears, hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE JUDGMENT

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: 1 PETER 4:17

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin

at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: 1 PETER 2:17

Honour all man. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

GOLDEN TEXT: LUKE 12:43-44

Blessed is that servant, whom his Lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Of a truth

I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.

THE FULFILLMENT OF THE SCRIPTURES

Brethren, the above text forms the theme of this gospel. Because of time constraint,

this gospel will be brief. What you should know is that the time has come for everyone

to be paid according to his work, that is, it is time for every person to reap what he has

sown. The events around the world today should not surprise us, because they are the

fulfillment of the scriptures written 2000 years ago about this era. The things that

happen in churches, prayer houses, hospitals, healing homes, shrines Government,

open and secret societies and private homes have clearly revealed the manifestation of

what had been said and written about this generation.

To show to you that everything has been predestined and therefore should not take

you by surprise, the Second Lesson states, "Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear

God. Honor the king." The Golden Text confirms this fact by stating that: Blessed is

that servant, whom his Lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Of a truth I say unto

you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath. Who is that blessed servant? He

is the one who honors all men, loves the brotherhood, fears God and honors the king.

The same shall be made a ruler over all nations by his master who will come to find

such a servant to be diligent.

Salvation does not come from a particular church denomination you attend. And

salvation does not come to you as a result of your social, political or pre -economic

standing and power. It is only derived from worshiping and fearing God, loving the

brotherhood, honoring all men and the king. Whether you are a Pope, Bishop or

whatever title and position you may have and occupy in your church that will not

save you. Your name, color, stature, nationality or status will not save you. You will

definitely give account of your work on earth.

What is profitable to do in order to be saved is to love one another. This is the period

of judgment and everyman has to be mindful of what he or she does. There is need for

everyone to be obedient. The first lesson has made it clear that judgment will begin at

the house of God. Therefore, if judgment must begin in God's house, what then will be

~ 58 ~

the fate of unbelievers and the disobedient ones? If the green leaves will have it so rough, what do you think will happen to the dry ones? Judgment has started in all the

planets and with every creature. This explains why peace has eluded the whole world.

There is no peace in homes, churches, cities, nations and government and in every

human endeavor. There are problems everywhere because of the commencement of

judgment.

There is no excuse of any sort and no one can plead ignorance because this

information was completed and circulated about 2000 years ago. M any people are

getting baptized into the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star while others are

surrendering their churches to brotherhood. The whole world is at crossroads and

human beings have reached their wits end. A local adage says that it might be easy to

kill an elephant inside the bush but extremely difficult, if not impossible, to drag its

carcass to the road. To be a member or founder of a church is very simple but what is

important is whether you shall be saved.

Have you honored all man, love the brotherhood, feared God and honored the king?

Your material possession cannot help you to obey God's injunctions. This is a golden

opportunity for everyone to strive to obtain salvation for oneself. There is no one who

is exempt from the impending doom exce pt the person who fears God and loves the

brotherhood.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: 1 PETER 4:17

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin

at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

BLEAK FUTURE FOR NON-BELIEVERS

Is there any institution of learning, which conducts examinations for illiterates and

non-students? Every institution of learning examines only its students. If registered

students in an institution fail exams, what do you think abou t nonstudents or

illiterates? If judgment is beginning in the house of God, what do you think will

happen to unbelievers?

The fate, which awaits a man who does not go to church, is the same as that which

awaits the man who goes to church regularly but does not believe in God and flouts

the divine Commandments recklessly. What this means is that God does not know you

by the church you attend or the position you occupy in a church. He knows you

through your score sheet. He is the great teacher and savior. He enjoined us all to

honor all men, love the brotherhood, fear God and honor the king.

We are God's temple, city and husbandry. If we obey his commandments then he will

surely reward us abundantly. A man who only goes to church and fails to honor all

men will not be a conqueror. Whether you are a pope or Bishop or Rev. Father, do you

think you will be saved if you do not love the brotherhood? Do you think the

~ 59 ~

population of your church will bring you salvation? No matter how numerous the

membership in your church, your salvation cannot come from that. If you do not have

the fear of God in you and obey him, you are doomed.

If the future of the so-called churchgoers is so bleak what do you think can happen to

those who do not belong to any church? This is not th e time for any man to relax in his

chair condemning every other church except the one he attends. This is the time to

obey God and do his will. In Europe, for example, many churches have ceased to

function because of lack of funds to run them. The result is the exodus of members

from these churches.

Human beings are wasting their time and energy doing things, which are detrimental

to their salvation. Any person who tries to persuade you to come to his church, ask the

person to support his action in the holy Bible. If any person tells you that he is the

savior and God sent, ask such a person to prove his claim in the Scriptures. Our Lord

Jesus Christ made a parting statement when he said:

Howbeit when he, the spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all truth, for he

shall not speak of himself. The Lord said, "Not all those who call me Lord, Lord shall

enter the kingdom of God but those who do the will of his father." Is there any person

who is able to do what is pleasing to God? Men abandon their hom es and go into the

bush or climb to the top of hills or into caves searching for God. No man should toy

with the words of God. The word of God is filled with power. It is the spirit and it is

God. The word of God is the truth. It is the light and life. The word of God is the glory

and the kingdom of God.

Various church denominations and religious groups claim superiority over one

another claiming to be the first to be established in the world. The Muslims claim to be

superior to the Christians, and so on. Even amongst the Christians, some groups

openly condemn others. Is that what God wants? There is a plethora of churches all

over the globe. Who are the so-called Priests of today serving? Who has sent them? Do

they observe the fundamental thing as baptism? Do they follow the steps of our Lord

Jesus Christ? Did our Lord Jesus Christ conquer by the sword or through

intimidation? He served and conquered with love, truth, patience, mercy and all the

virtues. The so-called Priest and church's founders are but wolves in sheep's skin.

They are fighting for their daily bread. This is why they cannot lead the sheep.

They have logs of wood in their eyes, which they have not removed so as to see clearly

enough to remove the speck in their brother's eyes. All of us who claim to follow the

Lord Jesus Christ should examine ourselves to know whether we are worthy. This is

the time for every man to seek the truth and work for his salvation. The noise over

Catholicism, Protestantism, and Islam etc., is unprofitable. These are human

innovations.

~ 60 ~

This is the time for everyman to wash his hands of evil and follow God. Time waits for no man. Whether you are a churchgoer or not, what is expected of you is to fear God,

love the brotherhood, honor all men and the king. If you did no t know what you are

expected to do in order to have salvation, you should read 2 Timothy 2:22. There, you

will find out what to do. It reads:

Flee all youthful lust and follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace with them that call

on the Lord out of a pure heart. God warned King Solomon against the Queen of

Sheba but he did not heed the warning. The woman lured him into building a temple

for her idols, which she worshiped. Because of that singular act, Babylon fell and has

not risen anymore. Whatever the people of the world may say about you, do not

bother yourself. Hold on to the truth, which you have seen and do the right thing.

Whether the world jeers at you for walking on barefoot, or for putting on white only

or for eating bananas and groundnuts, do not disturb yourself. Those of them who put

on shoes and dress in different clothes and eat everything that comes their way, are

they not worst off?

These people say that they worship the true God only. But what about the other

injunction that we should love the brotherhood, honor all men and the king? They

only profess God with their lips, but their hearts are far away from God. This explains

why they continue to burn candles and incense, make sacrifices and indulge in

idolatry. But here in the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, we observe none of these

things. Here we pursue God's holiness and have love for one another. It is only here in

the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star that love, peace and all the virtues are preached

and practiced.

Our Lord Jesus Christ washed his disciples’ feet and ministered unto them. What is

the implication of such actions? Christ by so doing demonstrated the act of honoring

all men and loving brotherhood. He said, if he who was called Lord and teacher

washed the feet of his disciples’, men should do likewise and do even more to their

fellow man. Christ was a living being upon whose examples all men are bound. When

his ribs were pierced, water and blood dripped. Men are disobedient and disrespectful

to their fellow men and the authorities that be because they refuse to honor all men

and love the brotherhood.

God is man himself. And our Lord Jesus Christ is man also. The Holy Spirit is human

too. The fishes in water, birds in the air, animals in the bush and even the ants are

human beings. From little things, it is said the greatest often grow. This means that if

we are able to honor all men and love the brotherhood, then we will be able to fear

God and love him too. If we do not love the man that we see, how is it possible for u s

to love God that we do not see? All men are gazing into the sky awaiting God to

descend from above. Because of man's disrespect for his fellow men, he invertible gave

God the same disrespect oblivious of the fact that the human being he dishonors and

~ 61 ~

hates are God.

Human beings kill, mutilate, punish and cheat their fellow human beings because they

believe that man is not God. Any person who says he would not honor a man should

be dreaded it. Even the angels are human beings. The Bible has enjoined us no t to fail

to welcome strangers for so doing certain persons welcomed angels and were blessed.

The things men treasure the lust for money, food, husband, wife, children etc., do not

have expression in the Bible. Are these things the source of salvation for man? A man

who points a finger at another person has three of his fingers pointing back at himself.

Any man who does not honor his fellow man cannot be honored by another person.

Man does not even honor himself. If man was to honor himself he would not st eal, tell

lies, commit fornication, get drunk and take medicine or inject diabolical substance

into his body. If the people of old honored men and themselves too, the knowledge of

our Lord Jesus Christ would not have eluded them. Because it was stated in t heir

books that the Messiah would be without genealogy, when he finally came through

Mary and Joseph, the world did not believe him.

We should not scoff at the word of God. Whether a man is old or young, or is a baby,

it does not make any difference. All of them are human beings. A man who will be a

governor or president is not born as an adult and governor from his mother’s womb.

He is born a baby, nursed and nurtured by his parents and gradually he grows into his

position as a president, or governor, millionaire or professor, or king etc., through

destiny. This is why in brotherhood we love all men, honor all men, have regard for

every person because we extend the same to God.

David was a soldier and in the field, God brought Saul who sought to kill him in to his

hands. His men suggested that Saul should be slain because he (Saul) would not have

spared David's life. David refused to heed this instruction saying that Saul was an

anointed of God. If it were the soldiers of these days, Saul would have been kill ed by

David. Today, parents kill their children and vice versa. Subjects kill their kings and

vice versa. And there is hooliganism in the world over. The Scripture says that come

what may, no sinner shall be saved.

Any disobedient and rebellious person has the spirit of Lucifer. From creation, God

has never experimented with the stones or trees. He always passes through man to do

his will. When God assembled all his angels and asked them to worship the Lord,

Angel Lucifer refused and rebelled. I honor all men, Love the brotherhood, fear God

and honor the king. And that is what I teach you to do so that it may be well with you.

Students and pupils fight and kill their teachers. Workers strike against there

employers and there is problem everywhere because no man honor and loves his

fellow man. A man who does not honor and love his fellow man cannot be loved and

honored by another man and God will equally not love him. If you are waiting to see

~ 62 ~

God you will wait in vain for it is man that you will see at all t imes.

Men have abandoned the teachings of God and have gone to imbibe the doctrine of

men. Nigeria and various parts of the world are going Western in wrongdoing. If the

Holy Spirit had not come now the whole world would have perished. It is written at

Luke 19:27: But those my enemies, which would not that I should reign over them,

bring hither and slay them before me. Many people would not come to the

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star because they have gone abroad and have obtain

chains of degrees. And others would not come because of their wealth. Read the

golden text again.

GOLDEN TEXT: LUKE 12:43-44

Blessed is that servant, whom his Lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Of a truth

I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.

YOUR REWARD

Whosoever listens, or reads the Gospels, which I give and practice them, has obtained

salvation. This is the reign of the Lord and King. All those who refuse his rule are now

handing over to the fathers reign. Whosoever refuses to worship man sta nds

condemned and has no share in the kingdom of God. Your money and other material

possessions will not save you. If the people of the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah

had risen up in concert and warmly welcomed the two angels that was sent to destroy

them, would their lives not have been saved? The people instead went to Lot with

clubs and swords and requested him to release the two visitors for them to kill. The

only people who will escape the wrath of God are those who honor all men Love the

brotherhood, fear God and honor the king. Whosoever fails to obey has himself to

blame.

Is it food or money or any of the material things that has kept us alive? Is it not the

blood of the living man, Christ that has kept us alive? But for his great love and his

promise that he would forgive us and our iniquities he would not remember anymore,

what would have been the fate of the world today? When Peter cut the ear of the

servant of the high priest, the Lord asked him to put his sword into its place for

whosoever lives by the sword would die by it. He further asked Peter whether he

thought he could not ask his father and he would send him 12 legions of angels to

fight on his behalf. He went on to say that if he did so, the word of God would not be

fulfilled. Even with that, did the world still know that he was the Savior? If God had

not promised that he would not remember our sins and iniquities anymore, do you

know what would have become of this generation?

If all Nigerians except this truth and adhere to it strictly, their problems will cease. All

the problems that plague the world today are manifestations of the ongoing police

action. When Zachariah was informed of the birth of a child, John, into his household,

~ 63 ~

he doubted it. He considered himself not fit to bear a c hild because he and his wife were old. Because of his disbelief, he was made dumb until the child was born. And so

it happened that Zachariah spoke only at the birth of John. The same fate awaits all

those who say that they cannot honor any man.

I will not be tedious with you; a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise. Let those

who have ears hear, may God bless his holy words amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE JUST SOLICITOR AND ADVOCATE

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 18:18-19

"And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal

life? And Jesus said unto him, why callest thou me good? None is good, save one, that

is, God."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: ROMANS 3:10

"As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one."

GOLDEN TEXT: 1 JOHN 1:8-9

"If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we

confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from

all unrighteousness."

NONE IS RIGHTEOUS

Brethren, this gospel shall expose the follies of the entire world. No man is guiltless.

The only source of our salvation is for man to be remorseful of his sins as advised in

the golden text. If man in the past, had been admitting his sinfulness an d consequently

prayed for forgiveness, he would not have been plagued with numerous problems as

is now.

The second lesson records that there is none who is righteous. This is proven in the

gospel of John 8:3-11:

"And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery

and when they had set her in the midst they say unto him, master, this woman

was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses in the law commanded us

that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? This they said, tempting him,

that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger

wrote on the ground, as they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and

said unto them, he that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at

her. And again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. And being convicted

by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto

the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. When

Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her,

woman, where are those thine accusers? Hath no man condemned thee? She

said, no man, lord. And Jesus said unto her, neither do i condemn thee: go and

sin no more."

The significance of that event is to indicate the fact that all men are sinners. Therefore,

if human beings were to know that there is none who is righteous, no person would

ever impute sins upon the other. They would rather pray for forgiveness. That was one

of the reasons why our lord Jesus Christ said, "and why beholdest thou the mote in thy

~ 65 ~

brother's eyes, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eyes..."( Matthew 7:3-5).

Therefore, there is no justification in telling someone to refrain from sins when you are

wallowing in sins. You cannot behold and recognize any act of sinfulness in another

person, if you have not committed such sins. David in one of his prayers said, "behold

I was shapen in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me." (Psalm 51:5).

In fact, this should be our solemn contemplation daily. If you see yourself in this way,

you will be able to pray for the forgiveness of those sins. We are fond of calling our

lord Jesus Christ a good friend of man. Here, he says that there is none who is

righteous. Why then do you impute sins upon one another? Right now if you see

yourself as a sinner and show remorse, you will have peace. Our lord Jesus Christ is

the truth and speaks the truth but he never accepted to be called "good master." Right from Adam up till now, man has been sinful. That is why the golden text states that:

"if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we

confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us, and to cleanse us from all

unrighteousness."

In spite of the above text, no one admits the fact that he is a sinner. When King

Solomon erected a temple unto God, he prayed him to forgive any Israelite who after

committing a sin would run into the place for the remission of his sin (1 kings 8:44 -50).

In essence, Solomon knew that there is no one who does not commit sin, (1kings 8:46)

and so, he calls for the forgiveness of such sins. What is the meaning of the statement:

"whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that humbles himself shall be

exalted." (Matthew 23:12). The meaning is that if you see yourself as a sinner and

repent, God will forgive you and wash you clean through the blood of his begotten

son: but if you see yourself as a righteous person, then your sins will remain with you.

It is for that reason that our lord Jesus Christ told the Pharisees that: “for judgement I

came into this world, that they which see not might see, and they which see might be

made blind. And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and

said unto him, are we blind also? Jesus said unto them, if ye were blind, ye should

have no sin; but now ye say, we see, therefore your sin remaineth." (John 9:39 -41).

The whole of your body belongs to God and there is nothing you can do other than to

admit that you are a sinner, and pray for your forgiveness. The key to your salvation

is the admission and confession of all your sins. When there is repentance, there is

forgiveness. If you pray to God like the publican, (Luke 18:13) who admitted that he is

a sinner, then your salvation is sure. "and the publican, standing afar off, would not

lift up so much his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast saying, God be

merciful to me a sinner." See yourself not as God's son but his unpaid servant like the

prodigal son, then he will forgive you and cleanse you of all your iniquities. The

prodigal son, when he came to his senses, acknowledged his iniquities and went back

~ 66 ~

to his father in tears and on bended knees, pleading for forgiveness (Luke 15:20 -21).

He was thus forgiven, and his status as a son was restored to him. The same

forgiveness was obtained by the publican and Mary Magdalene who admitted their

sinfulness and prayed God for pardon.

Some of the attributes of a person who has refrained from sin are that such a fellow

does not impute sin upon another, he does not discriminate, tell lies, judge others and

does not indulge in any act that is sinful. He also listens attentively to the words of

God. He does not ask questions and only thanks God for everything. Even the

Pharisees and the scribes who went before our lord Jesus Christ with the woman

caught in adultery, having realized that they themselves were unrighteous, departed

one after the other. There is no gain in admitting that you are a sinner, yet you

continue to impute sins on others. As a sinner, your duty is to bring together all

sinners, pacify them and continue to pray God for forgiveness for them. For if you

judge another person, you are judging yourself. Your song at all times should be,

"come o sinner, come! The lord is calling on you, and waiting for you, come o sinners

come!” Unfortunately, everybody is claiming to be a righteous person, who comes

from a Christian or Godly home. Read this first lesson below.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 18:18-19

"And a certain ruler asked him saying, good master, what shall i do to inherit eternal

life? And Jesus said unto him, why callest thou me good? None is good save one that

is God"

HUMILITY THAT IS WORTHY OF EMULATION

Brethren, have you ever heard or witnessed such humility as exh ibited by our lord

Jesus Christ? He was called good master, but he rebuked the ruler: "why callest thou

me good? There is none good but God." If it were you, you would have accepted that

title and gone ahead to demand for more appellations. The true name o f God is not

God but good. God's other name include perfect master, excellence, lord, to mention

but a few. No man shall carry the exalted tag as his Excellency on his name, for none is

excellent but God. This God who is the most excellent has come to chan ge you and

lead you to the accurate knowledge of the truth.

Sinfulness does not end with going out to steal, fornicate, tell lies, and to indulge in

other evils. Man by nature is a bunch of sins. He was conceived in evil and born in

iniquities. To show you how perfect God is, "...he makes his sun to rise on the evil and

good, and he send his rain on the just and unjust." matt 5:45). How many people could

do this? None. Every one instead is bent on retaliating one another. If you retaliate,

you have gone against the will of God. On the other hand, to forgive and become

charitable does not mean that you are not a sinner. If you are exalted by God, that

does not stop you from being a sinner. Therefore, if you are exalted, do not seek ways

and means of debasing another. If you humble yourself after being exalted by God,

~ 67 ~

you will continue to enjoy God's forgiveness; but if you become pompous, then you will have yourself to blame.

The highest thing to do is to admit that you are a sinner. Then the blood of our lord

Jesus Christ will be used to cleanse you and purge you of every manner of sins.

Henceforth, do not claim to be good or that you come from a God - fearing family; for

God alone is the perfect being. There is no man who knows himself and therefore there

is nothing good in him. It should be noted that man was made from the dust of the

earth which if filled with dirts. For this reason, he cannot exist without the traits of

this dirt in him. However, if you expose (confess) the dirt (sins), with a penitent heart,

you will be forgiven. Read the second bible lesson below:

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: ROMANS 3:10

"As it is written, there is none righteous, no not one."

CHRIST DIED TO REDEEM US

The second lesson only confirms the statement recorded in the first lesson. Be fore the

advent of Christ, people had thought that there was a righteous person on earth. Until

our lord Jesus came and died for the sins of the world, no one believed that man is

filled with sins, but the Holy Spirit has come to remind us that we are all sinners.

Amongst the angels and men there is none righteous except God. To say therefore that

somebody is righteous and good is false.

For you also to say that you are a good person reveals that you are a liar and there is

no salvation for you. Whoever claims to be righteous has invariably made Christ a liar

and has forfeited his salvation; for the words of the lord has no roots in him. (John

1:10).

The lord did not come to die for the righteous but for the sinners. Therefore, if you

accept that you are a sinner, then his precious blood will cleanse you. That is why it is

said that when our lord Jesus Christ comes, he shall have nothing to do with sinners,

but he will come for them that are ready for him. These are those who see themselves

as sinners. God does not exalt you because of your money and power. You are exalted,

blessed and cleaned only if you admit the fact that you are sinner. It is for this reason

that God has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise; and God

has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things that are mighty... ( 1

Corinthians 1:27-28). This is done so that man would not boast of himself. Your boast

should be in the lord.

If you were to realize the efficacy of the words of God, you would not ask Go d to

punish any person nor to curse him. Are you not a sinner? Or do you want your sins

to remain with you? Man has got to be content with his status in life. No matter how

lowly placed you may be, do not take offence and ask God questions. It is more

profitable to obey God and surrender oneself to him, for without him, you are an

~ 68 ~

empty vessel. It is God that operates in man. If you admit your sins and you are penitent over them, then God who is the source of everything, will take care of you.

Whoever claims to be sinless compares himself with God. On the other hand, when he

admits he is a sinner, and does not impute sin upon another, he is a real child of God.

Read the golden text below for clarification:

GOLDEN TEXT: 1 JOHN 1:8-9

"If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we

confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive our sins, and to cleanse us from all

unrighteousness."

CONFESS AND BE FORGIVEN

Our Spiritual Chorus says, "I am a sinner, Lord wash me clean."

The song confirms that statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ that there is none righteous

except God. He went further to say that whosoever says he is righteous is a liar and no

truth is found in him. (1 JOHN 1:8). That is the only gateway to heaven and the source

of our salvation. If you do not impute sins upon others you do not curse them and ask

God to punish or kill them. God, out of his mercy forgives us. No amount of money

could by us such forgiveness.

The problem between God and man is that, any time man ex alts himself and disobeys

God, he has to be debased. Many people like to recount many good things they have

done to others but which they have been negatively rewarded. Such a statement is not

encouraging. No man is capable of doing anything to another per son. It is God alone

who is the ability to do everything unto man. If you see yourself as a sinner, you will

submit to God; you will humble yourself; you will not judge or condemn anybody;

and you will not request anything from God. You will behave like Da vid who

admitted his sins and said: “Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquities, and cleanse me

from my sins. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sins is ever before me.

Against thee, thee only have I sinned and done this evil in thy sight: that thou

mightest be justified when thou speakest, and clear when thou judgest. Behold I was

shapen in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me." May God bless His Holy

Words, AMEN.

THANK YOU FATHER

THERE IS ONLY ONE LAWGIVER AND JUDGE

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: ROMANS 12:19

"Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: For it is

written, vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: 1 PETER 2:23

"Who when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but

committed himself to him that judgeth righteously."

GOLDEN TEXT: JAMES 4:12

"There is only one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou th at

judges another."

Brethren the Word of Life is the word of God, which is the stone which the builders

have rejected. If you are sick, if you are looking for power, or you are seeking for

peace or for money, good health, or eternal life, or anything whats oever, why do you

reject the word of life?

Remember the Words of Our Lord Jesus Christ, when Satan asked Him to turn the

stones to bread if He was the real Son of God, Our Lord Jesus Christ replied and said,

"it is written that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds

out of the mouth of God. "(Matt 4:4/Luke 4:4). It is an irony of fate that you should be a member of this new kingdom but you do not know the power of the word, the

goodness, the peace and prosperity of the word of God . This means that you have not

yet begun. There is no other thing in this kingdom apart from this word of life. There

is no other thing that is capable of cleansing you and making you sanctified apart from

the word. Therefore, brethren the kingdom of God means the word of God. God

himself is the word. Christ himself is the word. And the Holy Spirit is the same word.

If therefore you are jobless, if you are sick, if you have a court case, or if you are

childless, whatever your problem may be, whatever you have to do, look steadfastly at

the red garment and listen very attentively to the Word of Life. Do not engage

yourselves while here, in doing any other thing unconnected with this Gospel. Listen

with rapt attention, concentrate and do not make any noise or look at any other thing

apart from the direction of the word of God; for when it is infused into you, it wipes

away your tears, takes away problems, opens your eyes, and finally lifts you to

heaven.

Even if you had been sick for donkey years and you have d one all sorts of things,

including consulting the doctor, drinking Holy Oil or bathing in the Biakpan water,

undertaking fasting and praying and doing all other things, right from today, with this

Gospel all your problems are solved.

~ 70 ~

You are builders who have rejected the stone which has today become the head of the corner. Many people confess that there is power in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star

but the source of the power is unknown. You are made to understand today that it is

the word of God that is the stone which you rejected but which has become the head of

the corner. (psalm118:22/ acts 4:11). The word is the source of power which the world

rightly assumes and testifies to reside in brotherhood. The power of healing, the

power to change and exalt and the power of blessing. All powers derive from the word

of God. Apart from the word of God there is nothing made that was made.

The world is in a very pathetic situation. It is my wish that the entire world should

gather before me always so that i can impart to them the parcel I brought to the world.

Have you now seen why Our Lord Jesus Christ said: "I am the way, the life, and the

truth?" He also said that no one can see the Father except the one passed through Him.

There is no other person who knows the Father apart from Our Lord Jesus Christ. That

is why the punishment of God has been visited upon the inhabitants of the world.

People say that God does not punish, He is never angry, and He does not even get

involved in any action. But have you heard the gospel of today? What happened

during the time of Noah? Was it witchcraft or mermaid or apparition that caused the

great deluge during the era of Noah? Noah preached for a hundred and twenty years

to the people but they refused to repent. God instructed hi m to build an Ark. At the

fullness of time, God told Noah to collect everything in pairs into the Ark, and finally

that he should collect all his belongings and household into the Ark for He was bent

on destroying the earth through flood. (Gen 7:4-7). You all have read what happened.

For forty days and forty nights it rained cats and dogs. The torrential downpour of

rain submerged and destroyed every creature, leaving only Noah and his household.

Was this not the judgment of God?

Remember also what happened to the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. You can

well recall that Lot dwelt in those cities and preached and practiced righteousness of

God to the people; but they refused to repent. They held fast to their ancient and evil

ways as the whole world is doing today. In the end God sent forth two angels to

destroy the two cities saving only Lot and his household. There was a great

conflagration of fire that rained from heaven and consumed every person and thing in

the cities. (Gen 19:24). Who caused that?

What happened to Pharaoh? Pharaoh with his army and all those who followed behind

him are still buried in the Red Sea up till today. This was because God had predicted

to Abraham that his tribe would remain in bondage for four hundred years. And after

that He would release them so they could come and serve Him. But that He would

judge the nation that had tormented and enslaved them.

~ 71 ~

So brethren, that is why the First Bible Lesson read to you instructs that: "Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but give place to wrath, for it is written, Vengeance is mine;

I will repay, saith the Lord." Nobody has any right to avenge himself. Nobody has the

audacity to beat anybody. Nobody has any right to say woe unto any person. The bible

says there is only one lawgiver and there is only one judge. Who are you, man, to

judge your brothers?

Think for yourself, do you actually believe that any thief will be saved? Do you

believe that any murderer will be saved? Do you believe that any necromancer or

idolater, or native doctor will be saved? Is there any fornicator or adulterer, do you

think you will be saved? Do you believe that any child who curses his parents and is

disobedient unto them will be saved? This is the reason it is said that all the

inhabitants of the whole world, both black and white, are in a very pathetic situation.

That is the salvation Christ has brought unto mankind that no person should avenge,

that vengeance is the prerogative of God. Even if somebody curses you do not curse

him back; if somebody steals your property, do not bother. Whatever somebody does

to you do not do anything to him in return.

Apart from Our Lord Jesus Christ alone, is there any other person who knows what I

am explaining to you now? Remember when the Jews went to arrest Our Lord Jesus

Christ and Peter removed his sword and cut the ear of the high priest's servant, Christ

promptly rebuked Peter and told him to put his sword into its sheath for all those who

take up the sword shall die by the sword. (Matt 26:52). Did all the people in those

days, and even the people of today, not regard Our Lord Jesus Christ as a very foolish

person? He did not retaliate when He was cursed, beaten or slapped. He did not even

call on God to come to His rescue. He did that because He knew that only one

lawgiver and one judge existed, that there was no person capable of giving the law or

judging.

Do you see why I preach about Our Lord Jesus Christ from January to December of

every year and not Moses, Abraham, Isaac or Jacob? Because these persons did not

know this principle. Noah himself did not know nor did any other priest know. Our

Lord Jesus Christ knew because he was the son of man, son of God, and God himself.

He is the only one who has eyes to see God, and who knows God. He is the son of

man, the son of God and God himself. That explains why he left vengeance to the

father.

You have heard that when he was cursed He did not retaliate; when He was falsely

accused, He did not defend Himself. He surrendered every judgment and all

vengeance to the only true judge. He was beaten up, his face spat upon, disgraced and

subjected to all sorts of things, but He did not budge nor did he brandy words with

any person because He knew the one He was serving. Amongst all of you here, who

knows that vengeance is a prerogative of God? Whether you hide in the forest to kill,

~ 72 ~

the Father will judge you. Whether you remain in the moon or in the sun to commit murder, God will judge you. Wherever you hide to steal, even where no man sees you,

the Lord sees you and He will judge you. Wherever you stay to tell lies, know that

God sees you and He will judge you.

Whatever sins you commit, whether visible to human eyes or not, no matter what

happens, God will not fail to judge you and avenge your adversary. If you commit

murder and because you have money, you engage the services of lawyers who plead

on your behalf such that you are set free, God will not fail to judge you. If you oppress

somebody or dupe a person in anyway, God will avenge you. If you curse your child

or beat him up or do to him anything that is displeasing, because you claim you own

him, God will avenge you. Abraham did not know, otherwise when he heard that

soldiers had taken his nephew captive, he would not have gone to avenge and kill all

the kings. Pharaoh did not know that as he was enslaving the children of Israel, God

will judge him. If he had known he would have known what steps to take. Moses too

did not know that as they were busy fighting one war or the other and killing people

that God would judge them.

From the evil looks you cast on people, to the tongue you employ in cursing, the evil

words you utter and all the offenses you commit, all your thoughts and deeds, God

will judge you. Do not be afraid of anybody for no man can do you any harm. But fear

the one law giver because he alone will judge all mankind, both the living and the

dead. That is the reason it is said the fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom.

(Psalm 111:10).

If you have this wisdom and you fear God you will not kill any one's hen, you will not

curse anybody or pronounce woe unto any person, you will not plan to do evil, you

will not commit fornication or murder. You will not engage in the preparation of

concoction. You will not tell lies nor will you indeed commit any sinful act. And so,

brethren, I do not intend to be tedious unto you, the first lesson will now be read.

Open your ears, hearts and eyes, and allow this lesson to sink into you, so that you can

know the cause of the state of things in the world today.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: ROMANS 12:19

"Dearly Beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is

written, vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord."

Brethren, have you heard what is read to you? Do you not take vengeance unto

yourself? Give way to wrath for God will repay for vengeance is His. You are a

professor, a scientist, a spiritualist, the leader of a church, a necromancer, a rich man,

an important person, has your wisdom reached that peak? It is always said that we in

Brotherhood should be grateful because apart from Our Lord Jesus Christ no other

person knows this secret.

~ 73 ~

Even members of Brotherhood always wonder why all sorts of things are said about a person, and yet he does not retort. You can now see the reason. I am practicing the

word of God which is preached to you today. You boast that you are a very strong

man; that you have demolished Brotherhood buildings; that you have beaten up their

members, and then you shake hands with others to show you are a strong man. You

say that Brotherhood does not take court action against any person.

No matter what you do to a Brotherhood member, whether you seize his goods or beat

him up, he will never take you to court. Have you now seen the reason why we do

this? It is said: "avenge not yourselves, vengeance is mine: I will repay, says the Lord."

If all the inhabitants of the world were to listen to this gospel and advise themselves,

they would have no problems. But as long as you continue to avenge yourselves, know

that vengeance belongs to God, and He will repa y you. But now that you undertake to

avenge yourself with the jaundiced idea that God will not repay you and so you take

vengeance for yourself, do you think you will escape God's wrath?

You profess to know God, why do you take vengeance for yourself? Why do you

commit sin? Why do you steal and tell lies? Why do you indulge in the preparation of

concoctions? Why do you kill? Many people will hide and commit sins, consoling

themselves that nobody has seen them, but God has seen them and He will judge

them.

There is neither ghost nor mermaid nor juju nor man. There is only one lawgiver and

judge. If you do not believe in Him, He will judge you. Remember the law that Moses

received from the hands of an angel? The Father gave this law to him. "Do not have

any other God beside me. Do not make unto thee any graven image. Do not bow down

to them. I will visit the iniquities of the Fathers unto the third and fourth generations

of them that hate me, and I will show mercy on those that love me and keep my

commandments. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain. Remember the

Sabbath and keep it holy; in it thou shalt not do any work. It is clear and specific that

thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not

bear false witness against thy neighbor. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house,

thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his man servant, nor his maid servant,

nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's." Any person who keeps

these commandments, the moment he violates one, God will judge him.

Do you know the punishment meant for any person who has other Gods, and is

worshipping a piece of wood, or a stone? Do you know the punishment for one who

kills? Do you know the punishment for one who c ommits adultery? Do you know the

punishment for one who steals? Why then do you judge? You impose on an adulterer a

fine of one carton of beer and forty naira. Is that punishment commensurate with the

gravity of his offense? Maybe one steals, and it is dec ided that he should be tied hands

and legs, or that he should be fined eighty naira, or that he should serve imprisonment

~ 74 ~

terms. Is that the correct punishment? There is no sickness as serious as blindness.

What should be worse than blindness is stupidity. The inhabitants of the world

profess that they are wise, but do they know what I am explain to you now?

The one who tells you not to kill also tells you not to commit adultery. If you do not

kill but you commit adultery, you have violated all the laws. Th e one who enjoins you

to have no other God before him also tells you to honor your father and your mother.

If you have no other God but you do not honor your mother and father, you have

violated all the commandments of God. Do you know that all the laws te rminate in

one point? That is the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ

Jesus. Therefore whoever has another God must die. Whoever does not honor father

and mother has no other fine than death. All those who commit theft have no other

prison yard than to die. All those who commit fornication or adultery have no other

fine than death. All those who bear false witness against their neighbors have no other

fine than death.

You complain of numerous deaths every day and you ask wha t should be done. The

cards are clearly placed on the table that the wages of sin is death, and the free gift of

God is eternal life in Christ Jesus. God instructed the Israelites that whenever they

would go to war, after conquering the city, they should n ot gather unto themselves the

spoils of the war because they all belonged to Him. But Achkan took the spoils of war,

the vessels of gold and silver, and hid them under his tent without the knowledge of

any person. Before the Israelites went to war with the little country of Al, they sent

spies to view the city. They reported back that the country had a scanty population

and so between two or three thousand men should be sent to conquer them.

When the Israelites arrived, the men of Al smote about thirty-six of them and many

were wounded. This resulted from the sin of hiding the vessels of gold and silver by

Achkan. Joshua fell to the earth upon his face and said, "Alas, O Lord God, wherefore

hast thou at all brought this people over Jordan, to deliver us int o the hands of the

Amorites, to destroy us?" And the Lord said to Joshua, "Israel hath sinned and they

have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even

taken of the accused thing and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and t hey have

put it even among their own stuff."

Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies. God was to be

with them no more, except they destroyed the accursed thing from among themselves.

God accordingly told Joshua to go and cast lots, tribe by tribe, clan by clan, family by

family, and man by man. On whomever the lot would fall, such a person, his wife,

children, maidservant, manservant, oxen, and all his properties would be destroyed.

This is indicative of the fact that God had no other punishment when you offend

against Him, the only punishment is death. When the lot was cast and it fell on

Achkan, he admitted to have carried shekels of silver and a wedge of gold.

~ 75 ~

These were brought out from underneath the earth in the midst of h is tent. And Joshua said, "Why hast thou troubled us? The Lord shall trouble thee this day."

And all Israel collected the silver, and the garments, and the wedge of gold, and his

sons and daughters and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all

that he had and stoned them to death and burnt them with fire. Brethren I do not

intend to belabor you, our Second Lesson will now be read.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: 1 PETER 2:23

"Who when He was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threaten ed not;

but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously."

Brethren have you heard that? Our Lord Jesus Christ is the only person with

exemplary character which I have shown to you. If you do not emulate Him, you have

perished. He alone has seen God, He believes in God. He speaks the word of God and

reveals God through His way of life. That is why death had no power over Him.

He had given an advice saying, "Fear not that which kills the flesh and cannot kill the

soul. Rather fear that which can kill the flesh and also cast the soul into hell. (Matt

10:28). Who is the person who is able to kill the flesh and also cast the soul into hell? It is the almighty God. No person can kill you, and no person can cause you to be sick.

No person can send you to prison. No man, angel or spirit can cause any such

situation for you. But once you violate the laws of Jehovah God, you are a dead man.

When you refer to a person as Jesus, he will shout you down that Our Lord Jesus

Christ is the Son of God. The question is no w that you are not a Jesus, do you have life

in you? Death is a messenger. Fire is a messenger. Hades is a messenger. Thunder is a

messenger. Rain is a messenger. Snake is a messenger. Man is messenger.

But when you follow the instructions of God to the le tter, you have no problems

whatsoever. Right from today, whoever follows his instructions and Surrenders

himself completely to him, not minding whether he is accused of stealing, called

apparition or witch, or is imprisoned, or his garments seized from him , and he says

nothing at all because judgment is in the hands of the owner who will judge them

clean and worthy.

It is said, "Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people

sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play; Neither let us commit fornication, as

some of them committed and fell in one day, three and twenty thousand. Neither let

us tempt Christ as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by the serpents.

Neither murmur ye as some of them also murmured and were des troyed of the

destroyer."(1 Cor. 10:7-10).

~ 76 ~

They violated the laws and the penalties were upon them according to the act of God.

Such penalties are the law of God. Do you not notice the judgment of Our Lord Jesus

Christ day after day? Do you feel you are exempted from these orders? You still

revenge, tell lies, fornicate, have other Gods. Have you not erred? Do you not deserve

death?

Our Lord Jesus Christ says, "Whoever is angry with his brother has been judged

already. He who says Racca, is under hell fire. Whoever says to his brother, you fool,

is already under the judgment of the Sanhedrin." (Matt 5:22). Can you realize how

wise Our Lord Jesus Christ is? Do you realize why He said to Peter, "Put back your

sword in its place, for all those who live by the s word shall die by the sword?" (Matt 26:52). He also asked Peter whether he thought He could not plead with the Father to

send twelve legions of angels to destroy them all. If they have been destroyed, Our

Lord Jesus Christ would have been killed and his blood would have been of no avail to

person. When He was cursed, He did not curse back. When He was subjected to

torture and torment, he neither abused nor frowned nor murmured against God. He

handed everything over to the father the rightful judge.

Look at Israel, up till today, the inhabitants are still suffering. Do they find any peace?

Up till today, the punishment is visited upon them. Pilate wanted to release Our Lord

Jesus Christ but they shouted, "Crucify Him! Let His blood be upon us and our

children. "(Matt 27:25).

Has that curse not fulfilled on them? Pilate asked them, "What has he done?" They

shouted, "Crucify him." Even when He was hanging on the cross, they mocked at Him

saying, "If you say you are the Christ come down from the cross, and we sha ll believe

you."(Mark 15:32). They slapped Him and said, "Prophesy, who slapped you?" He did not answer. Because He knew that if He replied there was no other punishment for

Him than eternal death. He would not have resurrected. Who was He? He would have

been completely killed.

Why did Moses not resurrect? Why did De Lawrence not resurrect as he said he

would? Why did any other person not resurrect apart from Our Lord Jesus Christ

alone? It was because he was the only person who did not avenge himself. No m atter

what was done to him, he endured patiently, and so he left an example that we should

learn from him but you have all rejected him. The result is that death reigns over you.

All of you with white raiment look unto Jesus the Christ as a demented fellow .

Because you cannot imagine a man who is slapped and he does not retaliate. He

should have called fire to consume them. If He had done that He would have failed,

and God would have judged Him. Now that you continue to murmur against God, the

reward of it is death. When you are exasperated against God, the reward is death.

When you go about prostituting from pillar to post, the ultimate reward is death.

~ 77 ~

The Scripture has said that any child who curses father or mother must die the death.

If you curse your father or mother, you must not fail to die. Did He not say to Adam

and Eve, "Eat of all the fruits of the trees in this garden excepting one?" He did not say the day they ate it they would be sick but He made it quite clear to Adam and Eve that

any day they would eat of it they would die. You have been told that the last enemy to

be destroyed is death. How would you overcome death when you do not know that it

is bad to take vengeance for yourself?

Who made the heavens and the earth? Who made the fishes in th e water, the animals,

the trees, man and everything, who created all these things? Is it not God? Who has

given this injunction-love one another as i have loved you? Is it not the same person?

Do you know the reward of any person who loves everyone is eter nal life? Do you

know that the reward of the one who hates his brother is death? What shall it profit a

man to gain the whole world and to lose his soul? ( Matt 16:26). Since you were elected

into this kingdom have you not seen a typical example?

They have carved out all forms of propaganda work against me. They have

calumniated against me and Brotherhood that Brotherhood is cannibalistic and drinks

blood. Have you heard me arguing with any person? Have you seen me frown my

face? This is because I know what these mean. My position is that I have surrendered

everything into the hands of the Righteous Judge. I have only one duty to perform:

that is to love every person. Because the moment you want to retaliate for yourself

your ultimate end is death.

This is an eye-opener to all of you. You have seen, you have heard, you have

witnessed all church denominations and prayer houses, necromancers, society men,

whites, and blacks praying that the Father should die. Have I ever retaliated? Have I

ever said anything against them? That is the life pattern I show to you. I do not

retaliate. I do not say anything. I hand everything in the hands of the Righteous Judge.

He judges everything. If you come and clear everything away, I will even help you

carry these things away. You stand back and say that man is foolish. I know what I am

doing. Because if I do not do what I am doing now the result is death.

The irony of fate is that you have seen me but you have failed to emulate my

examples. You only console yourself that you are human beings, that people should

leave the Leader with his teachings. "Let me first give him a box before we say

anything." But do you know what the end to that is? The moment you behave that

way, your end is death. I know that I do not have to say anyth ing. I do not have to

make any statement because I have handed everything into the hands of the Father

who is the rightful judge. I know that the wages of sin is death. If you do not comply

yourself with what you are told, then you do not know where you ar e, and that is why

I have handed everything in the hands of the Father who judges righteously.

~ 78 ~

And so brethren, I do not want to take you further than this, what was hidden to you many, many years back has now been disclosed to you. The Golden Text will no w be

read.

GOLDEN TEXT: JAMES 4:12

"There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and destroy: who art thou that judges

another?"

Have you heard what has been read to you? It is said, "There is one lawgiver who is

able to save and destroy: who art thou that judges another?" That is why I am

indifferent to whatever any person does. You can take away anything here but I will

not be bothered in anyway because I am aware that there is one lawgiver. He alone

knows the fate of a person who carries away such propert y. I do not know it myself.

Therefore whatever a person does will not disturb me.

My mission is to maintain straightforwardness. And I teach all of you to emulate this

behavioral pattern. Let each and every one of you show this life -style of leaving

vengeance unto the lord. For under no circumstance will a sinner escape the

punishment of God.

All those who commit murder must be killed. The judge who sentences a person to be

killed must be killed also. He can pass the sentence that the person be jailed, that the

person be killed by firing squad. But the truth remains that whatever you do in life, an

appropriate account has been taken of them. And you must face the consequences of

all your actions. Based on this, we are not bothered by whatever you do.

I am not bothered in anyway about whatever you do. You are at liberty to throw me

down but i will not utter a word, you have not committed any act of sin by so doing.

Nevertheless, i know the father exists. I do not think that since God created man, any

person with the recondite wisdom personified in the Holy Father has ever manifested

in this physical plane. If you know such a person, mention his name in the holy bible

or from any other place.

Do you know why the people crucified Our Lord Jesus Christ? It was for my sake and

for your sake. He had broken the law of the Jews. He did so to create an avenue

through which He could be crucified. For if He had not broken the Sabbath law and

violated other laws, in what way would He have been crucified? Would they have

beaten Him to death? They would not have done anything to Him, and the world

would have perished.

Thus He had broken the Sabbath, cursed the people and committed other faults of the

like so that the people seized that opportunity to put Him to death. He died but once,

and now He lives everlastingly. And He has nothing to do with sinfulness. So long as

He commits no sin, death has no more dominion over Him.

~ 79 ~

And I ask all of you this question: since you were born into this world have you seen any human being who remains indifferent when people steal, tell lies, fight, quarrel,

and notwithstanding that he teaches them to forsake such vices? People continue to

commit these acts of sin but He has instructed them to refrain from such tendencies.

Yet he does not say a word, he does not excommunicate any person. Have you found

such a person on earth? You should ponder over this.

Satan will come to hit, accuse you that you are drinking blood. And you become

exasperated, murmuring against God, questioning why he allows s uch temptation to

beset you. By so doing, you have erred and it is certain that you must die. Let us allow

judgment into the hands of that one lawgiver. If somebody accused you of witchcraft,

calls you a prostitute, an evil doer, Satan, do not engage in an y argument with such a

person. For it is not the person who praises himself who is important, but he whom

God recommends. When you see a person who leaves everything in his life for God to

judge, beware of such a human being. Here in brotherhood, you are f ree to steal

anything and commit all types of atrocities. That is your business and whatever

predicament befalls you, i am blameless. You are responsible for your fate in life.

If each and every one of you were to allow vengeance unto the Father, you would not

have had any problems at all. Is the commandment, "Thou shalt not kill" a law of the

government? Is the commandment, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," a law of the

government? He is all and in all. He is the law -giver and he is also the judge. There is

no person, not even the angels who can judge another, if you judge another, it is

tantamount to your arrogating to yourself the position of God himself.

People contend that your leader regards himself to be God. If i regard myself to be

God then i would have judged you. Rather you are the one arrogating to yourself the

position of God by taking vengeance against people with the defeatist idea that God

will never come down to judge man. The inhabitants of the world regard themselves

as God. I am nothing, myself.

Brethren, I do not wish to be tedious unto you. It is said that one stoke of the cane is

sufficient unto the wise. Those who have ears, let them hear. May God bless His Holy

Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE LAW OF KARMA

FIRST LESSON: GALATIANS 6: 7

Be not deceive; God is not mocked for whatsoever a man soweth, tha t shall he also

reap.

SECOND LESSON: EPHESIANS 6: 8

Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the

Lord, whether he be bond or free.

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 7: 2

For with what judgment ye judge ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete,

it shall be measured to you again.

Brethren, focus your attention on this gospel. I want everybody to think seriously over

this gospel, which is neither vision nor dream but the truth. You have been advised in

the first lesson not to be deceived for God is not mocked and that whatever a man

sows that shall he also reap. If the whites are truly wise as many are made to believe,

why is it that this recondite truth is hidden from them? And if man generally is wise

and prophetic, why is it impossible for him to comprehend this truth? Why hav e the

scientists, the metaphysicians and seers not seen this truth? It is therefore, necessary

that if all the doubting Thomases, and the foolish ones should examine the gospel

well, it will be discovered that it is nothing but the truth, devoid of any gui le. It is said

that we shall know the truth and it shall set us free (John 8: 32). There is no sensible man who would continue in sin after knowing the truth. If the whites, the blacks, men,

women, young and old were to know that whatever a man sows, same shall he reap,

none of them would have continued in sin. The only person who was wise enough and

had this true knowledge was our Lord Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, this is the same

man whom the world has rejected. They have not only rejected Him but have al so

rejected His words and teachings. The only person who brought peace, love, joy,

prosperity, grace and salvation to man is our Lord Jesus Christ.

THE BASIC CONSTITUENT OF THE KINGDOM

The kingdom of God consists basically of love. Whoever has love will be truthful,

merciful, patient, humble, kind, faithful and will be filled with all the virtues of God.

You can now realize why Christ told Peter to put his sword back in its sheath for

whoever goes by the sword shall die by it. He further told Peter that if it were purely a

matter of war, He could have prayed the Father to send twelve legions of angels to

fight on His behalf, but that would invariably mean preventing the will of God from

fulfilling.

All that Christ said or did were purely based on his in -depth knowledge of this

kingdom. Instance, He did not tell lies nor indulge in any sinful acts. Despite the

persecutions against Him, He never retorted nor tried to defend Himself in any way.

~ 81 ~

All He did was continue to love, help, heal, and pray for the good of all. He was aware of the fact that God is love, peace, patience, longsuffering, mercy virtues and also that

this kingdom is built on the foundation on these divine virtues. It is therefore it is

unprofitable to engage in prolonged prayers, fast ing and gospel.

The central message of this gospel is that whatsoever a man soweth, same shall he

reap. You should also take stock of certain problem faced by people trying to study

these problems. By so doing, you would certainly refrain from evil. Many p eople trace

their problems and calamities to their wives, husbands, children, parents, juju,

apparition, witchcraft and similar things. Such allegations are false. Such things do not

exist. You only reap what you sow. What you do, your thoughts, and uttera nces,

constitute the Seeds you sow. If you conceive evil plans and allow evil communication

to proceed out of your mouth, then same shall you reap. On the other hand, if you

always think good, talk good, and do good, you will also reap same.

THE SOURCE OF HUMAN PROBLEMS

God is not responsible for our problems nor is Christ. Our problems come from us. If

you tell lies, you will reap lies. If you hate, you will reap hatred; if you kill, you will

reap death; if you deceive, you will reap deceit and so on. Ther efore, whatever you do

to others, you are directly doing it to yourself. This explains why it is said that, you

should do unto others what you would wish them do to you. In other words, do not

do to others what you would not wish to be done to you. Unfortu nately, man had been

blind right from the time of Adam.

People had all along been deceiving themselves by giving drinks, cigarettes, snuff,

meat, fish and meat to their friends, relations and others, thinking that they are taking

good care of these people. But before God, such services are disdainful. Abraham and

the rest of the people made the same mistakes. For instance, when Abraham heard that

Lot, his nephew, had been held captive by enemy soldiers, he got set and left with four

hundred soldiers on rescue operation, He arrived at the place, destroyed the city and

looted a lot of things, all in the name of rescuing his nephew. Abraham offended God

by so doing. God pronounced later that his descendants shall be put in bondage for

four hundred years. Who knows that that was the consequence of his destructive act?

The story of David is also clear. He suffered a great deal even though he was

acclaimed God’s beloved. David sought the hand of Saul’s daughter in marriage and

as one of the conditions, he was asked to give three human heads, which he did. That

marked the beginning of calamities in his life and in the entire world today.

Students of history and Religious studies would rightly trace the genealogy of the

Israelites to Abraham and to David who were all bloody. Right from then, the history

of Israel is that of violence and bloodshed. Man’s disobedience and destructive

tendencies began from the time of Adam and Eve. God had instructed them to eat of

all the fruits in the garden except one at the center of it for; it consisted of good and

evil. He warned them that if they should taste of it, they would die. They disobeyed

~ 82 ~

and tasted of it and they died. Before their expulsion from the garden, God sought to know from Adam the reason why he (Adam) disobeyed G OD.

The excuse Adam gave was that his wife (Eve) lured him. On further inquiry from Eve,

she told God that it was the serpent that deceived her. It was then that God cursed the

serpent that it would henceforth crawl on earth and feed from the sand. This ex plains

to you the truth in the statement that, the wages of sin is death. Adam and Eve were

not spared from the curse. On the part of Eve, God told her that in travail and pains

would she deliver her children. For obeying his wife instead of God, Adam was

promised hard times and that through his sweat would he feed. God did not stop at

that. He finally cursed the entire humanity that since man came from the earth, there

would he also return. Now, one may ask, why is it that, things went that way with the

people? The answer is simple and that is, they reaped the evil, the disobedience which

they sowed. People had since continued to die and returned to mother earth. The

reason is because; man has continued to persist in evil and so has to reap the fruit of

his labor. Those curses have not been withdrawn up till now. Snakes, no matter the

size, continue to crawl on the ground. Women are ruled by men. No matter how

educated, powerful and robust a woman may be she still comes under the leadership

of her husband.

MAN IS THE ARCHITECT OF HIS FATE

Man is the architect of his own fate. Solomon alone got married to seven hundred

wives and kept about three hundred concubines. That is an indication of the extent of

that curse upon women - total subjection and humiliation of women by men. Before

now, women were never counted when censuses were conducted in some countries.

Throughout the world, there was a general disregard for the women folk. None was

responsible for these calamities but themselves. Man on his part, has bee n toiling

continuously yet, he cannot feed well, clothe well or even shelter himself. Individuals,

states and nations have now become chronic debtors and hopeless beggars. This is

because, men is reaping from what he sowed.

Initially, when man obeyed God and loved Him alone, he had no problem of hunger,

sickness or death. He started to suffer from the day he fell short of God’s

expectations. Now, he no longer enjoys long life and peace. The numerous afflictions

experienced by man over the years are enough for mankind to refrain from sinfulness.

Therefore, men should think over and examine the things he derives from his

disobedience. It is never too late to make amends and this is why Brotherhood has

come into existence. We should not allow the CROSS to exte nd beyond this generation.

We should accept to suffer afflictions and self -denials once and for all, so that a better

tomorrow may be possible. If we begin to and love God right now, the future would

hold a lot of pleasures and prosperity for mankind.

God has made it clear that He will visit the iniquities of the parents upon the children

and be graceful towards the generations that 1ove Him and obey His commandments.

~ 83 ~

Therefore, it is in our own interest to abide by God’s commandments. We do not love God purely for the sake of getting certain gains or prosperity from Him but in order to

rectify and reconstruct all that had gone wrong.

AN ERA OF RECONSTRUCTION

This period could rightly be called the era of rectification and reconstruction.

Remember the two robbers on the cross, how one of them told the Lord to save

Himself and save them too. But the other one on the right hand side of Christ rebuked

and reminded him that they merited their punishment but the Lord was suffering

unjustly. That is a clear indication of the fact that all our sufferings are as a result of

what we did. If we could divert all our efforts we have been putting into iniquities

into righteousness, then we would reap bountifully. Cain and Abel were the sons of

Adam and Eve but Cain killed his brother without any just reason. That was an

extension of the iniquities of their parents. From that single evil act, the children also

had their own records stained. Therefore, it is high time that we rose in concert and

reordered our thinking and returned to God. Our Lord Jesus Christ came for the

purpose of deliverance.

The Almighty God wanted a spotless blood that would save mankind hence,

thousands of people were slain but such blood could not be accepted for the

atonement of the sins of man. Even the blood of two thieves nailed along with Christ

was not accepted, except the blood of Our Lord Jesus himself. Christ accepted to shed

His precious Blood for the salvation of mankind with the hope that man would repent.

That is the reason it is necessary that we repent and return to God now. That is the

objective of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star - back to the garden through perfection.

It is only the foolish man who would want danger to get close to him before he takes

precautionary measures. But a wise man sees an evil afar and immediately, decides on

alternative options to take. If Christ had sinned, salvation would not have come to

man and we would not have had any association with God. Now is the time for us to

strive to resemble Him for it is His footsteps that we have to follow. We have to

refrain from every manner of sin and live a righteous life. Read the first lesson again.

FIRST LESSON: GALATIANS 6: 7

Be not deceive; God is not mocked for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also

reap.

EVIL BEGETS EVIL

If indeed you had known that, whatsoever a man sows, that shall he reap, why do you

continue to kill one another, why do you continue t o steal, tell lies and plan evil

against your fellow man? People explain that, the criminal tendencies prevalent

nowadays are very great. Yes, it should be so because it is what the people sowed that

has now manifested in the world. There is problem in every community, and in fact

the entire world. There are also diverse forms of persecution and people are

~ 84 ~

complaining about these problems. It should be known that they are the aftermath of our evil deeds. Whatever happens to your life, you are solely respons ible for it. You

cannot claim ignorant of it for whatever one does returns to him like a boomerang.

One does not do good for an immediate reward but he is invariably protecting himself.

Therefore, since we are aware of this fact, it behooves us then that i n this kingdom, we

should sit up and mend our ways. If you should consider all the disciples of our Lord

Jesus Christ, you would recall that Paul was the one who suffered most and none of

the disciples persecuted others as he did. There is nothing to chang e this retributive

justice. Whether you are a slave or free born, you should realize that whatever you do

will surely re-visit you. If you do that which is good and hold fast to it at all times,

you will surely reap it.

Do not do any good thing to please anyone but know that you will reap the good

things you do. In the same token every evil deed has its own reward. If you have not

done that which is evil to anybody, nothing evil can also come to you. On the other

hand, if you have not done anything good but you practice evil all the days of your

life, nothing good can come to you. If you like, you can put this law to test and you

will surely discover that, it is real. If a thief comes across another thief who had killed

and escaped with someone’s property, he will also plan on how to kill him and take

away his property. This is to steal his property and to kill him because that was

exactly what the former person sowed. But whoever does that which is good before

the Lord, even if people will lay ambush to kill him with all the dangerous weapons,

as soon as that person emerges, the enemies would forget about their wicked plans

and embrace him. This is because the person is innocent.

AN EVERLASTING GOSPEL

Brethren, there is nothing to add nor subtract from this e verlasting gospel. Nobody

can do evil to you. God created man perfectly but since you have chosen to do that

which is evil, evil will also befall you. But if you are one who is desirous of doing

good, good things will also follow you wherever you may be in all the days of your

life. The mere fact that despite the recondite teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ and

His death, we still do not witness His glory means that we have refused to do that

which is good. People in their nefarious desire to kill, steal, f ornicate and commit

every other evil will claim that they are not Jesus Christ. Whoever identifies himself

with Christ is indestructible and nothing shameful can happen to him. He can never

taste of death; he cannot have problems nor be in lack. Have you identified yourself

with Him? He presented Himself as a perfect example for us to emulate so that we

may share in his glory.

~ 85 ~

IF YOU PLANT GOOD SEED

Whoever does that which is good also receives that which is good. That was why, in

spite of the fact that Christ was often called all sorts of vilified names and rejected by

the people, He never retorted. And today, do you not see that His works have

followed after Him and ours have also followed after us?

When you complain that this person or that person harmed you, you should realize

that none has harmed you but you are only being paid back for what you did because

whatever you do, you are doing it directly to yourself. As long as you continue to kill,

tell lies, blackmail people or have sinister plans against another person, you will sit

there on your throne and reap all what you planted. Even the war that is waged all

over the world is directed not to the little children but against the presidents,

millionaires, governors and the so-called mighty men. Whenever the people revolt

against their leader, the government will lock them up in the prison or even kill them.

God is not a respecter of any person. Many people complain that the children of a

good man are often not prosperous; but the question is, are you sur e the father of the

children was truly good?

A poor man who is really good in the sight of God can never fail to raise good children

and God will always exalt such children to high positions. The people of the world

would rather say that the parents were not good but their children were. The reason is

that your works follow after you. God is not a respecter of persons. Having known

that whatever a man sows same shall he reap, you should now resolve, never to

commit evil no matter the amount of intimidation, persuasion so not allow anything

to, lure you into it. I have not taught you any other thing apart from love. Come out of

darkness into light for whatever a man sows is what he will reap.

THE FAMILY OF GOD

There are people who are categorized into the fam ily of God and there are some who

are in the family of Satan. The children of God are blessed by the Almighty Father. If

your parents are the type that reverence God and do that which is good, that family -

can rightly be called the family of God. But if the y are ungodly, it therefore means that

they are satanic and you should utilize this golden moment to save yourself. You

should always realize that, whatever a man sows is what he will reap. Do not kill

anybody, do not fornicate, and do not speak evil words ; do not tell lies nor steal, for

these vices are the causes of man’s untimely death in the world. Therefore, if you

continue to indulge in these vices, you should realize that you are sowing deadly

seeds, which you will reap soonest. In the world, a man m ay cheat but instead of being

punished, an innocent person is punished unjustly in his place. That is not the case

with God. Whether you are a slave, a freeborn, a pauper or rich man or woman,

whatever you sow, same shall you reap. Equally, whatever good t hing you do, do not

think that it is waste for you will surely reap in due season.

AN ILLUSTRATION

There was a young man whose father was sick and he did everything humanly

possible to get him healed. He took him to several hospitals and prayer houses, but the

sickness persisted. So, this young man gave up hope of his father recovering. One day,

he finally decided that he will not take care of him again but then deceived people that

he was going to take his father to a hospital somewhere. At a point, he div erted and

took the sick man to a certain forest, there he left him in a muddy spot and walked

back home, even when his father was crying. When he got home, he told the people

that he had taken his father to the hospital somewhere and that he was responding to

treatment. He never told anybody about his real act.

His father died there. As time went by, he also grew older and turned the age of his

father at the time of his abandonment. At that old age, he also was stricken with the

same type of disease which his father suffered from. His own son also took him round

all those hospitals and prayer houses but there was no improvement on his health.

This man noticed that all the hospitals and prayer houses he took his father were also

where his son was taking him to. He was always watching and monitoring what his

son was doing. At a certain point, his son also got fed up with the unrelenting

sickness. He then decided within him to bury him alive somewhere. He also lied to his

people at home by giving them false impression about his father’s whereabouts.

Surprisingly to him, the son took him to the same spot he abandoned his father. When

the son was about to depart, the sick man called the son and pleaded with him to take

him home and then told the son that where he was laying was the grave of his father.

The sick man confessed to his son that in the past, he had taken his father to that spot,

and also to all the hospitals he was taken to, the prayer houses and all he did were

also those things he did for his father. And added that at a point, he got fed up and

decided to abandon his father in the swamp to die and this was his secret. He said his

confession was not for his good but he did this to forestall the repeated occurrence of

this vicious cycle in the family. He requested the son to take him home to eschew such

unwholesome and unpleasant occurrence. He however pleaded he did not know then

what he was doing by committing such a wicked act. When he told the son this, both

of them shed tears and the son repented and took his father home. Can you see how

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is portrayed there? The effect of that curse was

eschewed from the family; Let the second lesson be read.

SECOND LESSON: EPHESIANS 6: 8

Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the

Lord, whether he be bond or free.

~ 87 ~

THE VICIOUS CYCLE OF LIFE

There is no action without a reaction. A depraved life and a good one is like a vicious

cycle (State of affairs in which a cause produces an effect which itself produces the

original cause, so continuing the whole process). What this means is that any moment

you hate someone, another person will hate you. And if you abuse someone, so mehow

along the line, another person will abuse you. This is summed up thus: anything you

do to someone, another person will do it to you. Joseph was the most honest person

among his brothers and in addition, he loved his parents. He always disapproved of

all the evil plans of the brothers. As a result, his parents dearly loved him. Joseph was

virtuous. But he got on his brothers’ nerves with his first dream, which he narrated to

his brothers who did know that interpretation. This dream aggravated their hat red for

him. To say the least, they were not happy with the dream. According to his brothers,

the eleven bundles of firewood bowing to one bundle depicted them worshipping him

(Joseph). At another time, he also had a dream, which showed stars and the moon

worshipping one star. When his older brothers learnt about this dream, they felt

deeply affronted by the dreams.

In order to forestall the manifestation of the dreams, they held a meeting, plotted

against him and sold him in order to conceal their wicked p lan; they deceived their

parents that a carnivorous animal had devoured Joseph. While they were in thy bush,

Rueben first suggested that Joseph should be killed, but Judas rather suggested that he

should be sold for money. They accepted the deal and sold J oseph out to a certain

merchant. To conceal this plot, they killed a ram and spilled the blood on his garment

and went home to tell their parents that the leopard devoured Joseph. The merchant

later sold him to Portiphar who made him to be head of his esta tes. The scripture has

made it clear that whatever a man sows, same shall he reap. Joseph was a good slave

and because of his diligence, his master elevated him. While in the household of

Portipher, the wife was keen on sleeping with Joseph but he (Joseph) would not

succumb to such love advances. And because of that, Joseph was in for real trouble

with his mistress.

As Joseph would not succumb to the love advances of Portiphar's wife, she then

contrived a plan to soil Joseph’s name. One day, Joseph was very busy doing chores

when the mistress pounced on him, seized his shirt, and she went outside and

screaming that the Hebrew boy (Joseph) made an attempt to rape her. At the initial

time, Portiphar felt too disappointed with Joseph and he was so infuriated wi th him.

He could have killed Joseph but decided to put him into the prison, meant for the

children of the kings. We all know that as far as Joseph was concerned at the moment,

his status was that of a slave but he was not, at this circumstance, treated as such.

While he was being incarcerated, he was made the director general to take charge of

other prisoners. He interpreted dreams and nothing was done without his consent. He

was not maltreated in prison. In that prison there were two former servants of

Pharaoh. They had dreams and told Joseph same which he interpreted for them. In one

~ 88 ~

of the dreams, he was able to interpret and informed one of the servants that he would be accepted back while he told the other person that he would not be accepted back

when he was discharged.

PHAROAH’S DREAM

Pharaoh had a dream and in the dream, he saw seven fat cows and eleven lean ones.

He was perturbed by this dream and looked for someone to interpret it for him.

Pharaoh was informed by his servant that while he was in prison, Joseph was very

good at interpreting dreams and so Joseph was sought for to interpret the dream. The

interpretation of this dream brought Joseph to the limelight. That is how a slave

became a freeborn. With time, he was made a governor. And that is th e handiwork of

God. Whether you are a slave or a freeborn, your good deeds or bad one would hunt

you down. As a result of his good deeds, a slave boy became a governor, as was the

case of Joseph. I always use the earthly thing to illustrate heavenly situat ion, for you.

The story of Joseph is a good example to vindicate the fact that if you steal someone’s

property yours will be stolen in the same manner. Whatever you do to people, you

should expect the same back…. And so, even when Joseph was later made a g overnor,

the problem came from the other side on how to manage food.

This is enough to demonstrate the fact that whatsoever you sow is what you shall

reap. If you tell lies to someone else, another person will tell you a lie. If the so called

world powers who spend their money and time manufacturing missiles and other

weapons of war, were to know this, they would not have done that. And the blacks

who think that they know God would have put an end to hate, bearing malice, and

doing any wrong to people. Should the world know this veritable truth of the vicious

cycle; the inhabitants of the world would be preoccupied with doing good works to

everybody at all time. This truth is laid bare for people to take stock of their deeds and

make amends. The bane of world’s problem is this fact, which is often scoffed at.

Having known that it is wrong to wallow in sin, I have always taken my time not to

have anything to do with sins. There is action and reaction to every event. I do not tell

you this because I am Jesus, God nor do I tell you this is because I am a spirit. But

what I know is analogous to what a bush rat told someone that: ‘even though I am a

fool and you set a trap with a palm fruit that I may be trapped, but I know too well

that palm fruits cannot be buried right there on the Ground, but or, the top of the palm

tree. Therefore, as stupid as I am, said the rat, I cannot be trapped there." That is

exactly what the bush rat said and is exactly what I am relaying to you.

THE LAW OF NATURE

The fact that I cannot be ensnared by any means to do anything unwholesome, I wish

you do not give in to that can decoy you. Do not hope on your father, mother, friend

but hope on the good things you can do. Let your hope be on the fact that you are able

to practice what is good because by this we will be vindicated. The good things you do

will always hunt you down and so will the evil things you do. You cannot be

~ 89 ~

overpowered by any evil, no matter the magnitude, if you know no evil. The law of nature reminds us that evil begets evil and goodness begets goodness, no more, no

less. The former president of Cameroon Ahmadu Ahlijo carved out the British

Cameroon and ruled for twenty-six years and when he felt tired, he organized

elections and the incumbent Paul Biya took over. Afterwards he planned a coup d’état

to overthrow Paul Biya and the coup was aborted. He was put on trial. Where is he

today? In Liberia what did Samuel Doe do to people and what happened to him in the

end? Brutality begot brutality. In Nigeria, a lot of things k eep manifesting which will

be vented of the perpetrators. There is nothing one can do to avert the repercussions of

one's sins. Let the Golden Text be read.

GOLDEN TEXT MATTHEW 7: 2

For with what judgment ye judge ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye mete,

it shall be measured to you again.

KARMA AT WORK

If you want to remain in this world in peace, there is no other way to live peacefully

than to practice this gospel. Many people think that when they have money they

would do this or that. When they are in exalted position they would do one thing or

the other. The truth is that no matter what you are and what you have, if you do not

do good things, your health and position, do not benefit you in any way. The

inhabitants of the world have done all sorts of unwholesome things but the world does

not improve more than this. If you do not have children, money, juju but as long as

you do what is good, you will have salvation. Our Lord Jesus Christ advises us in the

scripture to take His yoke upon us and that we should learn from Him for He would

give us rest. For someone to say he or she cannot practice a particular injunction

because he/she is human is wrong. It does not mean that only Jesus Christ can be

righteous. After all, He wants you to learn from Him, but you negate this idea when

you say that you are not like Him as such you cannot do good things. It is only

through doing good things that salvation can come your way. Therefore, do not think

evil about anyone, and do not gossip, bear malice, tell lies or deceive anyone for this is

the only way to salvation and there is no truth in sins.

Christ did not come to judge but to save us. Whoever shall learn about His life and

practice same will be saved. Imagine the woma n who was taken before our Lord Jesus

Christ and charged for adultery. The people informed Our Lord Jesus Christ that by

the Law of Moses says the woman should be stoned to death. They needed Christ’s

opinion on the issue. Our Lord Jesus Christ wrote down their names, their various

sins, and the time they committed those sins.

After, He looked up and told them that it there is any of them who had never

committed sins; he should stone the woman man to death. They knew that this was

impossible and so each one departed from the scene without casting any stones. When

they all left, Christ admonished the woman not to commit sins any longer.

~ 90 ~

BE CAUTIOUS ABOUT WHAT YOU DO

Do not take part in plotting against anyone. You should take your time not to take part

in gossips, and shun quarrels. If God guides you, you should be cautious about

anything you do. Do not be exasperated with anyone, no matter the level of

provocation, because, the moment you do this, you have gone astray. All the sinister

plans you nurse against your fellow man, someone will also be nurse same feelings

against you. The unguarded utterances and destructive comments you make about

someone will be made about you; there are no two ways about it. If you pronounce

woe on someone, another person will curse you too. If you wish someone bad luck,

you will first experience bad luck. But if you bless someone, the blessing will first

come to you. Every good thing you wish on people will first happen to you. This is

God’s injunction.

From my cradle, I have tried to walk in conformity with Christ's injunctions. This is

because non-compliance to the will of God had caused the fall of our fathers. I have

not come to compete with anybody or get involved with politics. I have not come to be

called wonderful God or wonderful leader. Christ admonished us not to call any man

a teacher because He is the only teacher. We are Brotherhood and whatever Christ

says becomes my obligation to carry out because I am nothing. Our elders say that a

child who is careful would kill the thing that caused his father's death. I do not want

to be killed by what killed my forefathers.

THE PARAGON OF VIRTUE

This informs my great challenge to the world since February 14, 1942 that whoever can

provoke me to anger in this world would have a pr ice. To practice the words of God

needs not be done by coercion. You need not wait for your wife, your child, nor your

community to assist you in doing it because in your attempt to convince them to

follow you, they might cause you to get exasperated. Anybody who seeks to do good

should forget about wife, children, family or community but should face the truth

alone. Our Lord Jesus Christ is a paragon of virtues. He is a noble example for us.

Despite the bad reports He received about how Judas squandered th e money entrusted

in His care, Christ was not interested to investigate. He never had any problem with

anybody because He knew that whatever someone sows, he would reap just that. Even

if you run to heaven, hades, hell, the good or bad things you do will v isit you there.

That is the reason you should put an end to fornication, telling of lies, eating of meat,

fish, but you would not heed this divine injunctions. If you do not want to adhere to

God's injunctions, I will not scourge you nor excommunicate you from the fold. I do

not have prison custody to incarcerate those who do scoff at God's injunctions. But I

know for certain that whatever a man sows is what he reaps. If you come to

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star to play about, you will leave with nothin g but if

you came with all seriousness, you will certainly gain. If every member comes here to

practice the words of God, there will be no trouble at all.

~ 91 ~

Be informed that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the new Heaven and the new Earth which was written about and this is where righteous alone dwells. And

righteousness is what is expected of everybody here because, that is objective. May

God bless His words Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE UNBELIEVER’S REWARD

FIRST LESSON: HEBREWS 9: 27

And as it is appointed to men once to die, but after this the judgment.

SECOND LESSON: LUKE 16: 23-24

And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and seeth Abraham afar off, and

Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried, and said, father Abraham, have Mercy on me, and

send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, And cool my tongue: for I

am tormented in this flame.

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATIONS 21: 8

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, an d murderers, and lewd men,

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.

ALL SHALL STAND BEFORE GOD'S JUDGMENT THRONE

Brethren, we want to reveal to you what will happen to those who do not believe in

the Christ. As we have told you that we know where those who are dead are now, we

want to let you know this too. Understanding a verse in the Bible is akin to looking for

the meaning of a word in a dictionary. Yo u will notice that one word has so many

meanings. Similarly, a verse in the Bible can be expounded on in different ways.

People think that as soon as a person dies, it is finished. But I want you to know that it

is not finished because each and every one o f us has to stand before God's judgment

throne to give account of all the sins we have committed. There is no judgment here in

the world, but there is judgment in the other world awaiting our souls, and that

judgment is final. When someone dies, you cry and mourn for him.

My question is; are you mourning for his death or for the judgment he is going to face?

Because if you were to know that there is judgment for all those who are recalcitrant to

God, you would yourselves have submitted to and served God, a nd in addition

refrained from all manner of sin knowing that judgment await all sinners. We are

enjoying ourselves as much as we can in the world, but as we do this let us remember

that there is judgment awaiting us all. So many say that before certain ind ividuals die,

they confessed the sins they had committed: these people think that it as a result of the

juju they worship, on the contrary. I am telling you that this is because they are

rendering account of their deeds on earth before the judgment throne. There is no

judgment for all those who believe in God; however, all the unbelievers shall face

God's judgment, and they will not have the privilege to argue out their case for

judgment has already been delivered against them, they will be thrown into

everlasting fire.

~ 93 ~

The fire that we refer to is not the kind that burns the flash, but that which burns the soul. You will realize that all the tribulations we encounter in the world is not on our

flash but on our souls. You have often seen people who sleep on costly beds and live

in well-furnished houses, who in spite of all these cannot have peaceful sleep at night;

this is because of their sins.

This explains why our Lord Jesus Christ did not retaliate to any of the ill treatment

meted on him; people spat on him, beat him, and meted out all sort of disgrace on

him; he was afraid of this very judgment. It also informs why he asked Peter to put

back his sword into the sheath, adding that all those who take up the sword shall

perish by the sword. (Matthew 26:52) All true followers of Christ are afraid of this

judgment; that is why they are afraid of committing sin and are ready to endure

disgrace, hunger, poverty, etc. that may come their way. They are uninterested in any

worldly enjoyment being afraid of the eternal fire. Dose the world really know that all

those who commit sin will enter into the great fire? So many people are now in the

lake of fire itself. Brethren, where will you be on that Day of Judgment, being that you

are still committing adultery, fornicating, telling lies, stealing, backbiting etc., can't

you see that you are now in that fire already?

You will be surprised when all the medicines you have been making and the juju you

have been keeping will bear witness against you. All those you hated o r bore malice

and backbite will be lined up before you and you will meet face to face. The time you

sleep every day is the time you go to give daily account hence some people whose

judgment is against them pass away while they sleep. I tell you that all wil l stand

before judgment both young and old. At times you see people who eat normally as

others do instead of getting healthier and healthier they grow thinner and thinner

every day; these are the sort of people whose souls are in the guard room. Why do we

then refuse to hearken unto the instructions of God so as to be able to escape

judgment? From the time of Adam and Eve till date, everyone who dies stands before

judgment and if he is found guilty is thrown into the lake of fire. Don't you see then

that there is no death; that it is not the flash and blood that will stand before the

judgment throne but our souls? It is not the house that will stand before the judgment

but the occupant of the house.

Re-examine the first Lesson.

FIRST LESSON: HEBREWS 9:27

And as it is appointed to man once to die, but after this the judgment.

A DAY OF RECKONING FOR MAN

Brethren, let us think seriously about this great Day of Judgment and forget about all

our Riches and children in the world. Do not think that being a rich man, your money

will help you on that day, or if your children are educated and are lawyers and

doctors that they can help you on the Day of Judgment? Those who do not hearken

~ 94 ~

unto God's instructions are stupid: they ought to think of their s ouls rather than earthly riches.

Anyone who puts his mind on the things of the world and refuses to serve God should

know that the only place for him is everlasting fire no matter his position in life

whether he is a king, commoner etc. There are times, when in a dream, you see

yourself standing helplessly being mercilessly beaten up by a junior person, and you

wonder how such a junior person can do so to you; I want you to know that, that is the

beginning of judgment. Re-examine the Second Lesson.

SECOND LESSON: LUKE 16:23-24

And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and seeth Abraham, afar off, and

Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried, and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and

send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue: for I

am tormented in this flame.

MAN SHALL PAY FOR HIS SINS

Brethren, note the lamentation of this very wealthy man, the picture of a great man

and millionaire tormented in great fire. You cry for death to take you away so th at you

may go and rest but I tell you that it is here (on earth) that people rest in the true sense

of it. Our duty is for us to submit ourselves to God by doing all that he instructs us to

do; if you are enabled to see where your parents and relatives who died are now, you

will regret being knee-deep in the things of the world. You have read for yourself

what the wealthy man passed through hence his begging that father Abraham should

have mercy on him and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool his

tongue, I am sure children and relatives must have, when he died thought that he had

gone to rest and was then seated at the right hand of the father; and many who

witnessed his burial must have wished to die like him. If the children and rela tives of

that man were to know that he was in the great fire, would they have accorded him

such extravagant burial ceremony where they slaughtered cows, bought drinks and

generally partied thinking that he died a noble death?

A DIVINE WARNING FROM GOD

The misery in the whole thing is that nobody can come over here to tell you what

transpires there, but you are now being told everything so it is left to you to help

yourself. If you are able to see how your parents and relatives are currently suffering,

you would have refrained from all manner of sin. God has no respect for reverend or

church gore; He knows only those who obey him. If it were possibly, I am sure that

most of you here would receive messages from your relations asking you to abstain

from sins. You can now see the meaning of that statement made by Christ that there is

no salvation in the grave. You, who are currently here, are very lucky, therefore follow

the right track and help your souls. If you like to enjoy yourselves as much as you are

doing by committing adultery, fornication, and drinking, continue to do so; but

~ 95 ~

remember that after this there is judgment and then the everlasting fire. Mark you, this fire does not darn for three months or a year or for a limited time but it burns for

eternity. The soul does not die; it is the flash that dies leaving the soul to stand before

the judgment throne of God.

Re-examine the Golden Text.

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 21:8

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and lewd men,

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."

FLEE FROM SINS

The reason why I am not bothered about any sin you commit or anybody else in the

world is because I know you will have your share in that lake of fire. All those who

commit sin will suffer a second death. What our Lord Jesus Christ came to save is our

souls; as a rule, the flash will die, but the truth is that after the death of the flesh all

those who commit sins such as fornication, stealing etc., shall be thrown into the lake

of fire. Those of you who had 70 wives thinking that you are doing a good thing, and

all other fornicators, the fearful and unbelievers are now in that everlasting fire. When

a sinner such as a fornicator, a liar etc., dies, you often say he is in heaven let me ask,

which heaven? That is why all true believers in God will prefer to have their head

chopped off rather than commit any sin. When they are ill, they prefer to die instead

of taking any form of medication. Brethren, there will be no mercy whether you are a

chorister, Pastor, prophet etc., that is why I daily, with tears in my eyes advice you to

refrain from sin to avoid being thrown into that great lake of fire. The only way out is

for you to from today take this gospel seriously and refrain from all your sinful ways

so as to be saved.

However, if you choose to hold fast to worldly things, then you have to get ready for

everlasting punishment. My teachings ar e not for the flash but for your souls because

it is your soul that will have to suffer in that fire and I believe of a truth that what I

am telling you is what a brother should tell a brother so as to help him. It is left to you

to get up and save yourself by serving your God and being submissive to him. Do not

be afraid of anybody; know that the Almighty has already laid down everlasting fire

for the unbelievers and everlasting joy and glory for the believers. If you were

thinking that when you die, you are going to eternal rest, know that it is not as you

think.

What you are suffering here on earth is just the beginning the actual judgment is there.

So many of you are now in detention your cases have been adjourned that is why you

are encountering suffering in life. Brethren, we are kept here on earth till date to see if

we can repent and refrain from our sinful ways so as to be saved. The lyric of the song

in the Church Hymnary No. 686 is a warning to each and every one of us to run away

~ 96 ~

from sins so as to be able to receive salvation. A stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. He, who has ears to hear, let him hear. May the Lord bless his Holy Words.

Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE LAST GENERATION

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: REVELATIONS 21:27

“And there shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever

worketh abomination, or maketh a lie, but they which are written in the Lamb's book

of life."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: REVELATIONS 19:8

“And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in f ine linen, clean and white, for

the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints."

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATIONS 2:14

“But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the

doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling blo ck before the children of

Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication."

PREPARATION FOR CHRIST

Brethren, since you are children of light, I want to reveal to you what this generation

has in stock for you. It is worthy to note that those who walk in the light do not

stumble and those who sleep do not see the dawn of the day. Many people in the

world had waited for this kingdom, but they made no preparation for it. All the

Christians, native doctors, governments of the different countries of the world all

longed for Our Lord Jesus Christ, but they made no preparation for Him. This could

be likened to an examination situation involving a number of predetermined

candidates. In which case there is always anxiety, tension, worries, and f ears

concerning the said examination. But in spite of this, while some candidates are

playing, others are revising their lesson, while some others merely walk about, yet, all

of them are expected to pass the examination.

When does the weeping start? It starts soon after the result of the examination is

released and those who did not pass begin to cry, weep, sigh, lament, and so on. It will

be so in this kingdom of God which many of you take for granted. The whole world

will weep and mourn because none seems prepared for this kingdom. By careful

observation, you will realize that about 99 percent of the inhabitants of this world do

not know what this kingdom is all about. That is why you should consider yourself

very fortunate to be told about this kingdom a nd to have actually witnessed its

manifestation. But then, this kingdom will elude you, if you do not abide by God's

injunctions.

PREREQUISITE FOR ENTRY INTO THE KINGDOM

Brethren, this kingdom is the manifestation of the prayer by Our Lord Jesus Christ:

"Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will

be done on earth as it is done in heaven." This is that kingdom prayed for. For entry

into the kingdom, meekness, gentleness, temperance, humility, truthfulness, and every

virtue is needed. Recall that scripture has said that this generation shall not pass away

until all things are fulfilled.

There is no begging anyone to come into the kingdom, rather it is for one to beg to be

allowed into the kingdom, for if you do not possess the needed qualities, you will not

enter into it. If you are stubborn, disposed to stealing, telling lies, fornicating,

drinking, snuffing, smoking, etc., you will not enter into it. There is no cunningness,

no violence, no quarrelling, of you have the desired qualities, you will enter into it.

Your many years in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star means nothing if you do not

possess the needed qualities. If the entry requirements were wealth, Peter, James,

John, would not have left their canoes to follow Our Lord Jesus Christ. If it were

wisdom, Paul would not have abandoned his calling and high wisdom to move bare

foot, following the way of Christ. If the criteria for entry were wealth, would Our Lord

Jesus Christ heal people's sicknesses free of charge? The Lord told them that the

kingdom is like a costly stone hidden in a vineyard, which when someone discovered,

went and sold all that he had, and bought that vineyard.

The kingdom is nothing else but love, humility, meekness, kindness and all other

virtues and you must possess these virtues to be in the kingdom. Of all the multitudes

that followed Our Lord Jesus Christ, how many followed Him to the end? Only twelve

disciples followed Him. Of these twelve, when He moved to a place, He would leave

nine there and continue His journey with three, and when He reached another

destination, He would leave the three there and move alone. Why did the thousands of

His disciples not follow Him? It was because of their refusal to abstain completely

from sin. More so he went around with only twelve disciples because of their good

spirit.

Many people swear that when Christ comes back, they will go with Him, but what

preparations have they made? From the beginning of the world, God has no business

with sin, and that was why God demanded a righteous blood for the forgiveness of the

sins of the world. What man love, God hates, what God hates man loves. Man delights

in sinning but God does not. Christ whom we confess knew that the Father does not

have anything to do with sin. He carefully avoided sin, for if He was abused or cursed,

He did not curse back. The reason I am revealing these to you is so that you may know

where you are. The problem with you is that you do not cherish what is given to you

freely. The grace by which we are saved is not valued. The gate is there but you will

not enter into the kingdom. This is because of sin.

~ 99 ~

It was only Our Lord Jesus Christ who was clean. He did not sin, fight, quarrel, and frown his face when attacked. Another person who was holy wa s Adam when he was

in the Garden of Eden. But from the time Adam fell to the time of Christ, there is none

other who could be compared to Our Lord Jesus Christ. Besides Christ can you

mention one person who will be slapped and he will not slap back? If we want to be

jealous, we should be jealous of him. You talk of Our Lord Jesus Christ yet you do not

want to identify with his behavior.

We should be like Him. Paul desired to dine with Him and be like Him hence, he was

jealous of his ways. Paul said," All these things that charm me most, I sacrifice them so

as to have Christ." You should only desire Christ and be devoted to the course of

Christ. At the moment, realize that it would be better for someone who has not seen

this kingdom to fail to enter it than for a person who has known about it to fail to

enter.

You have been informed that you do not need to light of the candles, money, wealth,

in order to be admitted, but by the qualities mentioned earlier to you. If you go with

wealth, children, wives, etc., you cannot enter this kingdom. It is common to find

members struggling in the different bethels for seats and positions, they beat someone

and push others away, and they claim to do a service to God, or work for the Father. Is

God the God of confusion? One adage says," When I see a dead person, I will shed

tears." Now that you have seen a dead body, why have you not shed tears? Beauty,

wealth or money are not required but divine qualities are required.

If you are cunning, or you prove to be cleaver, you are doing yourself harm. If you tell

lies, you are equally doing yourself more harm. The way to the kingdom of God is not

very easy, neither is it possible through violence. If it were by violence, David would

have been the first to enter. If you kill what will be your gain? Remember that when

David wanted to build a temple for God, God instructed him not to do so, for his

hands were soiled with blood. One maxim says, “Since eating of yam is a taboo to me,

it does not mean that I should drive the goat away from it."

People say that the sermons given in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star are difficult.

Do you want to go back to the orthodox churches? You may go back if you so desire.

But if you are really a child of God why do you fornicate, steal, kill, drink, sm oke,

snuff, cause division, hate, fight, and commit other vices? By doing these, what other

punishment do you need because I know that you are punished already. How many

times can an offender be punished? How many times would a man fall? He has

already fallen and you want to punish him in addition. Why? Our Lord Jesus Christ

said all those who sin are under law, meaning those who sin are under sin.

There is no wisdom in your action when one steal your property and you pray to God

to punish him. You should ask God to spare and not to punish him. If you were to take

the teachings given you here seriously, you would not fail. If you are cursed, or

~ 100 ~

abused, you should not return the abuses, otherwise you will be liable to punishment.

Christ told Peter to put back his sword for he who takes up the sword, will die by the

sword. Now if you value your life, flee from sin and you will conquer every situation.

Let the first lesson be reviewed.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: REVELATIONS 21:27

"And there shall in wise enter into it anything that defileth, neither whatsoever

worketh abominations or maketh a lie, but they which are written in the Lamb's book

of life."

NO MUNDANE THING IS REQUIRED

Do you hear that? Did Christ not tell his disciples," I will go to prepare a place for y ou, when I go I shall come back to take you unto myself, that where I am there will you

also be." Where is He? Where will He take you to? Christ is in love, patience,

meekness, humility, moral rectitude, uprightness and all those who are in Christ must

have these virtues. How is it that Christ is not a murderer, fornicator, thief, drunkard,

and yet you expect Him to take a fornicator, a drunkard, and a murderer unto

Himself? Do you see how the wisdom of this world is confounded? No sin whatsoever

shall enter there. Lying, stealing, fornicating, hatred, gossiping and all vices, will not

enter into it.

Do not struggle for wealth but struggle for righteousness, so as to pass by this gate.

This is why Christ said." If one does not hate his father, mother, childr en, and take up

his cross and follow me, he is not suitable for me. If any of the mundane things is

relevant in this kingdom, he would have said so and I would have told you.

Did Christ not have earthly father and mother and relatives? He surrendered them up

for the sake of the kingdom. It does not cost anything but self -sacrifice.

Anything that can cause your brother or yourself to fall, leave it so that you can gain

entry into the kingdom of God. No doubt food, houses, wealth, children, are all good,

but if because of these things you do not enter the kingdom what will you say? Rather

than loose the kingdom, because of clothes, children, wealth, and other mundane

things, why do you not abandon them? Know from today that the kingdom of God

requires self-denial. An experience from the children of God who tasted the kingdom

shows that people always consider them as being mad. If actually this kingdom was

revealed to you by God, you would have known that the kingdom does not need

thieves, fornicators, murderers, and evil doers. What prevents the whole world from

entering into this kingdom is that they do not want to leave sin. Christ said be keen to

be holy, else, you will not see God. Does He not say in His teachings: “Blessed are the

pure in heart, for they shall see God."

~ 101 ~

Your mind is not clean because you are always thinking of children, money, and wealth. When will you think of God? Many of us claim that Jehovah God and His

Christ have come, and we say this with our lips but without any conviction. You

profess that the Father has come, Christ has come, the Holy Spirit has come, but when

you discuss with another person you still ask, "Is it true God has come?"

John proclaimed Christ, but while in prison, he doubted if he was truly the Christ

because he thought that when Christ would come, he would set the people free from

prison. So he was never perturbed the first time he was imprisoned until after two

weeks and when he did not see Christ coming to release him he started doubting and

he sent messengers to find out whether He was the one or they were to look for

another person. You are told to look imperishable things and not for perishable things.

You should not be surprised to find someone who attacked you and snatched your car

from you coming back to you to ask you to pray for him. What about the car he got

from you? You should not be surprised too if you see someone who eloped with your

wife coming back to report to you that the same woman left him for another man. The

whites say that no condition is permanent but as far as this kingdom is concerned, I

say that once you enter into it nothing can take you out of it. When you enter into it is

forever.

The gate to this kingdom is narrow but there is no sickness, death, suffering, poverty

or any of the human problems. This path leads to eternal life as against the wide road

which leads to destruction. Thus, it is not easy to see a true Brotherhood of the Cross

and Star member who abstained from fornication, or stealing going back to them. If

you find any Brotherhood member who is not able to abstain from fornication or any

other vice, know that he is not of the kingdom of God. There is nothing as great as a

man being holy. Such is a man who has love, who does not fornicate, does not tell lies,

does not drink, does not discriminate, but regards everybody as himself.

For many thousand years, people have been taught the acts of righteousness, and now

this is the last generation, and after this the end will come. If God loved sin, He would

have listened to Adam when he fell. As he that called you is holy, be ye also holy in all

your ways. Be truthful, as you have left drinking, can you remain in a bar? If you had

left juju practices, can you stay in a compartment where there are juju priests? How do

you think that Our Lord Jesus Christ can come back to dwell with sinners? The entry

to this kingdom is not closed but there is only one gate and that is righteousness. Let

the second lesson be reviewed.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: REVELATIONS 19:8

"And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white, the

fine linen is the righteousness of the Saints."

~ 102 ~

THE SYMBOL OF THE CHILDREN OF GOD

Have you heard that? It is not shameful to hear that people still commit sin in the

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star? We need to lead good lives, provide food for

people who have no food, give clothes to those who are lacking and they will speak

good of us and thus, glorify God. The situation now could be compared to the feast

given by one king in the Bible. He invited only the rich and the opulent ones but they

did not honor his invitation. He had to invite the poor and the lame and they

immediately turned up for the feast. Now he observed that not all in attendance wore

the wedding garment and he asked that they be cast out side. So, know that if by any

means you have found yourself in this kingdom, you will leave if you do not possess

the necessary qualities because God does not delight in sin.

The kingdom of God is not mighty buildings filled with sophisticated television s ets

and other electronics or costly carpets or women or men. The word of God says that,

"Though we knew Christ in the flesh, we do not know him in the flesh again." If one

writes on his body, Jesus Christ, Jehovah-God, yet he steals, fornicates, or commits

other forms of vices, such a person is not of the kingdom of God. You may claim to be

a Reverend Father, pope or Bishop, or any other esteemed designation, but you still

fight, quarrel, fornicate, hate, bear grudge, drink, steal, and wallow in other vices , you

are not of this kingdom because the identity of every child in this kingdom is

righteousness.

Which man can fill a hall full of yams and place a goat in charge of them? Or who can

fill a hall full of goats and accept an application from a tiger to w atch over the goats?

Of course no one would do that even if the tiger would offer do the job free of charge.

You are seeking for money by all means, so you think God will call you to watch over

His treasury, or work for Him? Many of you claim to come here for the service of God

only to come and scatter the sheep. If you find a man bringing his wife and children

into this place and you take care of them without making advances to them or looking

for any favor, you are in the kingdom, but if do the contrary, you are not of this

kingdom and you must have entered through the window. Christ said anyone who

enters the house through the window is thief but he that enters through the gate is the

shepherd and the shepherd knows him. This is not the time to talk but t he time to

practice the word of God. If you are not seen fornicating, drinking, stealing, smoking,

people will admire you and follow you. Let the Golden Text be re -examined.

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATIONS 2:14

"But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the

doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumbling block before the children of

Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication."

~ 103 ~

THERE IS NO GOD IF HE IS NOT SEEN IN YOU

Now the entire United States of America, Ghana, Liberia, and the entire world have

accepted this kingdom but my question is who will go and lead them in truth,

humility, love, and all virtues? I do not mean someone who will go to these places and

demand cars and wives. Realize that you are actually being watched to see if you

practice what you preach. If you do not drink, fornicate, cause division, but love all

equally, everyone will follow you.

The work of God constitutes serving others. When people speak evil of you, do not be

offended, do not frown your face or curse, rather, bear with them and smile. Christ

said, " He who does my work to the end, I will give the power to rule over nations."

Do you not know that if a stranger comes to your house with a box and that box is

stolen by your child or your servant your claim as a man of God will mean nothing to

that stranger? If you was your linen clean, that man would be paid all that he lost. The

stranger may have had only one hundred naira to meet all his expenses, and if it is

stolen, he has nothing, and if you wash your linen clean his money must be provided

for him. He must also be comforted. Do you not know that you and I are the city and

we have to labor to clean it of weeds?

The father cannot give room to anyone who is sinful to c ome nearer this kingdom. The

politicians are struggling for nothing, only those who wash their linen clean can rule.

This is not the time to quarrel, shout, but the time righteousness must be seen in you.

Christ said, "Learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart..."(Matthew 11:29). What is the sense in saying that God is in Lagos whereas God is in you.

There is no God if God is not seen in you. You are not different from a person who

says," Do what I preach and not what I do, and the person who says that God is in

Lagos. Did Our Lord Jesus Christ not tell us that if you are told to find Him here or

there, do not go, but as the lightening passes from one end of the sky to the other, so

will the Son of man be seen? People must find righteousness in you. Bre thren, I will

not take you further than this, a stroke of the cane is sufficient onto the wise. Those

who have ears to hear should hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE JUDGMENT TIME

Everlasting Gospel delivered on 13 June 2012

FIRST LESSON: 1ST TIMOTHY 6:1-2

Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all

honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. And they that have

believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do

them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These

things teach and exhort.

SECOND LESSON: EPHESIANS 6:5-8

Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear

and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; Not with eye service, as

men pleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; With

good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: Knowing that whatsoever

good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond

or free.

GOLDEN TEXT: COLOSSIANS 3:22-25

Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eye service,

as men pleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God; And whatsoever ye do, do it

heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the inheritance: for ye

serve the Lord Christ. But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong, which he

hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

REWARD FOR DILIGENT SERVICE

When you say you do not want to attend any service in the Bethel, after going out to

steal, fornicate and do one evil thing or the other, you lie d own to sleep, you are

harming yourself. All the things people did right from the time of Adam till date; this

is the time for the reward. All the things you committed, whether they were good or

bad, you have to receive the due reward. This is clear to all and there is no cheating in

it. The idea of grumbling and murmuring of being someone's servant does not come in

here. If you live with someone and served him faithfully, you will be rewarded; your

reward is even the greatest. It is said that what a man sows, same shall he reap.

Whatever one does, one will not fail to have the reward. Even if it is a child born

today, any good thing he does, he stands to receive reward from God. If it is evil, he

stands to receive the reward.

Whether you live in a place as a stranger, any good thing you do, the reward is there

for you from God. Whether you are a servant, any good thing you do, you will

definitely receive the reward. If you have a father who is good unto you, do not use

that as a yardstick to refuse doing well to him. Serve him diligently because you will

~ 105 ~

receive the due reward from God. If you have a good master who is good in taking care of you, reciprocate his actions by being faithful unto him. Serve him day and

night because the Father will reward you.

The end of the world has come and there is no more laxity, whatever one does he

receives the reward accordingly; whether you are a small child or an old man. This is

the time all hands must be on deck, because God is around to reward everybody

according to what he has done. When you are given one thing or the other, you pray to

God to bless that person. This is not enough. Reciprocate anything somebody has done

to you so as to receive your reward from God. One only receives blessing when he is

found to have done any good thing.

When you find yourself watching over another man's estate, do this diligently. If you

are a gardener to someone, do it wholeheartedly. Whether you sell for someone or you

are a wife to someone, be faithful and do it as if you are do ing it unto God, because for

all the things you do, the reward comes back to you. Stop lamenting, stop being tricky,

stop stealing and telling lies, stop killing people because whatsoever you do, the

reward comes back to you. Engage yourself in good servic es, because God, the

rewarder is around, taking record of whatever thing you do. The children of God in

one of their renditions say the King is around with His holy men to judge the whole

world, according to what every man has done. This is the time of jud gment, a time

when God is judging and rewarding every man according to what he had done.

Whatever thing you do, whether it is good or evil, you will receive the due reward.

The time for sleep is no more; the time for evil is no more; there is no time for l aziness;

the time of gossip has gone. This is the time to do only the things, which are good.

This is not the time for a child to serve his father or the father to serve his child. This

is not the time for a husband and wife to serve each other. It is not the time for a

servant to serve the master, but this is the time when everyone has to serve God

diligently because of all the good things you do, you will be rewarded. This is the time

you are judged for what you have done.

In 1 Peter 3:3-4, it is stated that we should be examples to the world. "Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of

putting on of apparel; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that, which is not

corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God

of great price." With this advice, we should be watchful of what we do. The sheep,

which are entrusted under your care, you have to take good care of, so that when the

chief shepherd comes, you may receive a crown of glory, which fades not. This is the

time we receive praise from God for the good things we do. This is the time of

judgment. This is not the time for you to do things foolishly. It is not the time for

stealing, prostituting, neither is it the time for you to speak evil against another

person. The time for evil is over, whatever thing you do, the Lord is watching you.

~ 106 ~

This Gospel is the trumpet, which the Father is sounding to those who were asleep, those who thought they were condemned, those who thought they were saved, this is

the time for roll call.

FIRST LESSON: 1ST TIMOTHY 6:1-2

Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all

honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. An d they that have

believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do

them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These

things teach and exhort.

A CALL FOR FAITHFULNESS

What you have to teach and exhort people as you go about is that, anyone who has a

master should serve him diligently lest, because of his misdeed, someone says

something evil against God. If you abide by the Gospel I am giving you now, being

faithful to others, not stealing or telling lies, you will stand to receive the reward.

Your father does something good to you and you claim that he is your father and thus,

sits down without reciprocating what he has done. If by your actions people speak evil

against God, you will be in problem. All the time, try to do that which is good because

God is by the corner to reward everybody according to what he has done. This is the

time of judgment. All the things we do individually, we stand to receive rewards from

God. Nothing whatsoever you do is in vain. This is the time we receive reward for

whatever thing we did, whether you are a man or woman. Therefore, let us serve God

wholeheartedly without being weary, for every one of us has a gift from the hands of

God. When you use your gift to serve God, you will receive reward from Him, and if

you do evil, you will receive the reward of evil.

Heaven and earth shall pass away but the word of God will not pass away until all are

consummated. You have heard of the man who had three servants an d when he

wanted to embark on a long journey, he gave the first servant five talents; the second

two and to the third, he gave one. The one who received five talents traded and made

a gain of five more talents. The one with two talents traded and had two m ore talents

as gain, but the one who received one talent dug the ground and buried the talent.

That he did with a curse, saying his master was wicked and wanted to reap from

where he had not sow; and wanted to receive from where he never gathered, into.

Finally the master returned from the journey to reward every servant according to

what he had done in his absence. This time is likened unto that case because the owner

of the world has come to reward everyone according to what he has done. He has

come to reward you according to how you used the ability He gave you. He will

reward in line with how best you have used the wisdom, good health, power, as well

as the good things you have done. This is the time He has to reward you accordingly.

If you had hidden your talent; as that unfaithful servant, the gift will be taken away

~ 107 ~

from you and given to another person. Therefore, do not doubt what you will see in the whole world because something spectacular has happened. Re -examine the second

lesson below:

SECOND LESSON: EPHESIANS 6:5-1

Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear

and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; Not with eye service, as

men pleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; With

good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: Knowing that whatsoever

good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond

or free.

YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW

Do not come in here to struggle for positions. Do not wish to be a chairman, treasurer

or secretary here. Come in here to serve God truthfully because He is seeing all the

things that you do. And whatever you do, you will receive t he reward; for whatsoever

a man does, he will receive his due reward. Your number of years in Brotherhood of

the Cross and Star is irrelevant. The church you belong to is not the issue at stake.

What matters is the good work you can boast of because you wi ll only be rewarded for

whatever thing you do. Whatever you are, all the things you do follow after you. If

your work is good, you will receive a good reward from God and you will go home in

joy. When you come in here and are given the Feast, after eating it, you go away with

both the spoon and plate, and where a part of the rice is not cooked, you equally go

home with the remaining one. This is the time for you to receive the reward.

This is the time of judgment. While you are operating in one direction, your wife is in

another one, your children equally operate in their different directions. Do not deceive

yourself by rendering eye service here. Do not put on the white cloth to go about

deceiving people, begging for alms. You break the tithe boxes, when y ou go to

somebody's house he receives you wholeheartedly and gives his house key to you. The

moment he is out, you bolt away with all his belongings. You are surely going to be

rewarded for all those things in no distant time. You will soon see what will h appen;

all the evil ones will be eliminated from the surface of the earth. In the nearest future,

there will be no more evil, and so, even as you come in here, if you are not ready to

receive these teachings, you are not doing any person any harm but yours elf. And if

you do not practice them, will you receive the blessings meant for those who practice

these teachings? Never bother yourself over anybody's behavior. Do not compel

someone to do anything. It is said that Christ will come back to take us to His Father's

Kingdom.

~ 108 ~

This is the time. And so, He has come to judge and reward everybody according to one's deeds, and place us in the different mansions, depending on what everyone has

done. God does not consider whether you are a slave or free born, rich o r poor, small

or great, in His reward. You are aware of the scriptural nomination quoted for the

second lesson. God does not cheat anybody. Do not cheat anybody. Do not do a thing

so that people may praise you. In everything you do, make sure you do it wit h the fear

of God. Wherever you may be, serve God diligently; always render services as if you

are rendering it to Christ because He will surely reward you, irrespective of your

status quo. All the good things you do, the same will He give back to you as r eward.

That is why we work day and night, no time to sleep and we always engage in doing

good things. We do not fornicate, steal or lie; this is the time of joy for all who serve

the Lord. Do not lament again, do not be sorrowful, and do not struggle for a nything.

There is no discrimination in this Kingdom. Always engage in doing good, all those

who prepare charms, tell lies encounter a lot of problems.

Do not complain of not having money to serve God. The ability to sweep the floor is a

gift of God. The ability to fetch water for people is the work of God and so any good

thing you do, you stand to receive reward from God. One has to boast of what one has,

therefore, do not say you have money or you do not have money. Do not speak evil

about anybody but always give thanks to God in whatever circumstance you find

yourself. Be humble and meek, avoid flippancy, do not be easily exasperated, do not

gossip because God does not want or cherish trouble, what you sow, same you shall

reap.

Avoid your old ways of living because we are now in a new world; the world where

one reaps what he sows. All those who know that God is here on earth and do not fear

His presence but rather choose to commit evil acts, their time is up. God has come to

judge every man according to what he has done. He is the King of kings and Lord of

lords and so He has arrived to reward every man for what he has done. He does not

respect persons. See the golden text below:

GOLDEN TEXT: COLOSSIANS 3:22-25

Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eye service,

as men pleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God; And whatsoever ye do, do it

heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the inheritance: for ye

serve the Lord Christ. But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong, which he

hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGE

Go from house to house and preach to the people to stop stealing, fornicating, telling

lies, and committing sins because the owner of the vineyard is here to reward

everybody according to what he has done. Stop committing abortion, stop fornication,

do not harden your heart against God, this is not the time to disregard the word of

~ 109 ~

God. All those who go about committing one crime or the other, extorting money from others, trading on human beings, robbing people, committing abortion; those who tell

lies, conduct nepotistic tendencies have hard times awaiting them because the

Supreme Judge is around with His saints to judge the world and give everybody

reward according to what you have done. This is the time every child of God has to

handover himself completely to God, be humble, meek, love everybody, show mercy,

be temperate, patient and serve God with r everence and awe. The end of the world has

come; what a man sows, same shall he reap, God does not respect any person.

Whatever you may be, a governor, a president, pope or bishop, surrender yourself to

God because He is no respecter of persons. Anyone who commits evil will be

rewarded with evil. Wherever you may try to run to, you will be found and

eliminated.

Others accuse you of worshipping a man and if you were not to worship a man, would

you have existed till now amidst the oppositions from your adver saries? Wherever

you may be, the Father is right there. In the air, water, in the house, office, bush,

indeed, everywhere you go to, He is with you. Therefore, surrender yourself

completely to Him so that you will witness His glory in you. All those who en gage in

sins, realize that God is watching you and is with His reward, six days is for the thief,

but the seventh is for the owner of the vineyard, He will take you unawares. Discard

all the evil tendencies you used to exhibit so that you may receive God's salvation. All

this time you have been committing these sins, what other benefits do you derive

apart from death and diverse problems. What do you think you will lose in doing

good things? and what do you think you will benefit in committing evil? What I am

giving out now is an open letter to the entire world, to avoid the impending doom

awaiting those who commit evil.

The whole world is under the rulership of Christ and He has come to judge and

reward the world for her deeds, be it good or evil. Christ h as good rewards to give to

them that reverence and fear Him, those who obey His instructions, and those who

surrender themselves completely to Him. But to the proud and arrogant, those who do

not fear Him, people who continue in committing evil, He has equ ally come to give

them reward which is commensurate with what they have done.

It is said that God knows how to save those who reverence Him, but reserves the

wicked in punishment until judgment day. That is why you are told that it should not

be because of your action that people speak ill against God. As long as you do not

practice the word of God but engage in committing sins, you will receive punishment.

Use this last opportunity to save yourself from the impending doom, which will come

upon those who engage in evil. Always remember to pay your tithe, charity and free

will offering. Be humble and meek; avoid committing sins, for there is no salvation in

committing evil. God is the Almighty.

Recall how He hardened Pharaoh's heart so as to destroy him. He sent Moses to Pharaoh to seek the release of the Israelites. After proving His potency over Pharaoh,

he released the Israelites. After the Israelites had left Egypt, He was the very person

who made Pharaoh to seek to retrieve the Israelites. And so, Phara oh went after the

Israelites. When the unarmed Israelites saw Pharaoh and his troops of army coming

after them, they lost every hope of existence because they had the red sea as a barrier

to their escape. God however exhibited His power by commanding Moses to strike the

surface of the sea with his staff and immediately, the sea was divided into two. This

was how he saved His people. But for Pharaoh and his strong army, He buried them

inside the sea even till this day. Therefore, He knows how to salvage thos e who fear

and reverence Him but the wicked, He preserves for judgment and condemnation.

Christ is the same yesterday, today and even forever more. All the things that

happened were so made to serve as examples to those who had the intention of

committing the same thing. Therefore, this Gospel is an open letter to the inhabitants

of the world; to stop committing evil, because the owner of heaven and earth has come

to judge the world and reward everyone according to his deeds.

The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. Those who are here should go out with

this Gospel and disseminate it to others so that sinners may take stock of it and save

themselves from the impending doom awaiting those who commit evil. What is

surprising most is those who call themselves Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, yet

refuse to believe in God. They continue in committing sins. What do you think about

your life? You have been told not to be afraid of anything that can kill the flesh but

cannot harm the soul, but only fear He who is able to kill the flesh and cast the soul

into hell fire, and that of a truth is God. Are you not afraid of the presence of God on

earth? You are hearing the daily happenings on this global earth yet you do not want

to save yourself. Be informed that there is no forgiveness for the sins you have

committed after knowing the truth.

SPIRITUAL CHORUS: 'The battle is not fierce I will cross over the river with my

sheep'. 'Jesus is a Warrior; He will fight and conquer for His children'.

Beloved, it is said a stroke of cane is enough for the wise. He, who has ears, let him

hear what the Holy Spirit imparted to the world. May God bless His Holy words.

Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU TO WEAR BLACK GARMENT SOON

A divine gospel delivered Friday morning 20th day of august, 1999

FIRST LESSON: 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 his Christ; and he

shall reign forever and ever. And the four and 20 elders, which sat before God on their

seats, fell upon their faces, and worshiped 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 has 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.

SECOND LESSON: REVELATION 17:14

These shall make war with the Lamb, and the lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord

of lords, and King of Kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and

faithful.

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 19:17-END

And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all

the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, come and gather yourself together unto the

supper of the great God; that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains,

and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and

the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. And the bea st was

taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which

he deceived them that had received the Mark of the beast, and them that worship his

image. These both were Cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

FLEE FROM SINS

Brethren, this gospel will reflect what I taught you in 1974, when I showed you the

judgment equipment. It is to affirm to you that the hour of God's judgment is almost at

hand. I arm you with the word of God daily. If you up to now, some of you are still

un-repentant of your sins, then your blood will be upon you. Alternatively, if you

forsake your sins and cling to God, God will not take you by surprise because no

sinful man shall inherit the earth. This accounts from my toiling day and night w ith

tears for the salvation of your souls but you are still unconcerned but rather relish in

sinful joy. It is a very pathetic that after cleansing you with the word, you will return

to sin. But remember that the black soutane is my weapon.

Let me make it abundantly clear to you that any day I wear the black soutane, tie the

sword, and handle the shield, then start weeping. I know that, that is what you are

waiting for. That war is not for the righteous one, but a war to fulfill the war of

~ 112 ~

judgment day of God. It has nothing to do with the use of man-made bombs, using of guns nor machetes or to use man's propaganda. It has nothing to do with all these.

I WILL WEAR THE BLACK GARMENT

And let it be known that if on your coming here again, you find me adorned wi th

these war implements I drum these words of God daily into your ears but you refused

to hear. You glory and confessing your sins day in and day out. Tell all the swindlers

who are related to you, if they have never Hearkened to the word of God that the

soldiers of God are dreadful. These soldiers of God are to wage war with all those

people who do not listen to the words of God and practice same. It is indeed a fearful

thing. Only one soldier of God can destroy the whole world in a second. All these

while, I am trying to unite and save humanity especially you but you remain adamant.

You should disseminate this message to the entire world that they have no weapons of

war as only one angel can fight. Do you think that now that they have told the soldiers

to return to the barracks that they were to be use for this war, they are not the people.

I will show you these soldiers. All the sinners and those who do not want God to rule

will be destroyed. You will not have where to store the corpse of men. Men will not

die through sicknesses. You must have heard what happened in China that about 40

million people were displaced by flood, and they became helpless and homeless. India

and other places are having varied catastrophic experiences. Yet you are very lucky

but never realize this. You must realize that no matter what happens the sinners shall

never go unpunished. This is why if you are beaten by a man you should not retaliate

so that you may be absolved on that day because we are drawing near the judgment

day of God.

WHY CONTINUE IN SIN?

How many years is it from 1974 till today? There is none of you that takes pity on

himself or have any element of Mercy. You are still telling lies, fornicating, commit

murder, sue people to court and practice all other vices. Are you thinking that the

Father shall not judge this world? His judgment takes one day. Those of you who were

here in 1974 witness what happened. By only displaying the judgment equipment

daylight became darkness. The angels are on alert. You must understand that if the

father does not command nothing can happen. And you were shown these war

implements. If you had believed in what you saw nobody would have gone back to

commit evil. Inform the arm robbers who go about threatening and robbing innocent

citizens, tells them that the soldiers of God that will fight them are unseen. You will

just see corpse upon corpse of people littered everywhere.

All those who are righteous will never have anything to do with these soldiers of God.

All the sinners, and all those who blaspheme against God and accuse the children of

God falsely will suffer.

~ 113 ~

ALL SINNERS BEWARE

My heart is full of mercy and I weep for this unrepentant world. But you have no

mercy and love for yourselves. This is not a joke but the eternal truth of God . Judge

yourself from now. From our Lord Jesus Christ, his father and all the children of God

are glorified and they don't have problems. But I am talking about the hardened

sinners, the murderers, prostitutes, juju priests, thieves drunkards, eaters of al l forms

of flesh, trouble mongers etc., nobody makes trouble with you but you start to shop

for trouble with others.

I have tried to save you and if I must save you, you must desire to save yourself.

Again, from 1974 till now, how many years have elapsed? Those, judgment equipment

are still here. If not because of the mercy of God, who can wage war with God? If not

because of the mercy of God, the world could have been destroyed by now and

nobody would exist on earth.

FIRST WITNESS MATTHEW 24: 20-22

But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day, for then

shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this

time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should

no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

Without the righteous children of God, nobody would exist on earth. Every day you

commit one sin or the other. Those of you who tried to abstain from sin have now

reverted to their previous sinful nature. You believe there is nothing. But there is

something for everybody that does not fear God. The thing that awaits sinners cannot

be explained. Aside from the presence of the children of God in the world nobody

would be saved. If I reveal to you what is going on in other parts of the world like

India, Russia, Yugoslavia and other places, brethren you would be dumbfounded and

unable to enjoy a meal. Unfortunately these people are not conscious of what is

happening in the world today.

FIRST LESSON 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 his Christ; and he

shall reign forever 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

has 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.”

~ 114 ~

WARN BCS MEMBERS

Tell that to the blacks, the whites, the sinners and the entire world, tell this to those

with deaf ears and even Brotherhood members who refuse to practice righteousness.

Ask them where they will be on that day. If you must be info rmed, God is not in lack

of men, it is man who lacks men. Upon all that I have done, you see how God honors

me. Right now, if I move in now and put on the black garment, something disasters

would happen but I continue to restrain myself because I cannot be on earth and you

suffer these things. Besides, I know that you have nowhere to run to. Apart from the

father no other person can save you or stop that calamity from visiting you. The

whites have an adage that "prevention is better th an cure." Most of you are not aware of the Perilous times. You are busy struggling for money, cars, sue people to court as

well as commit all forms of vices. None of you here recognize me. You treat me with

contempt despite the fact that I impart these recondite teachings to yo u every day.

Without speaking further if I put on the black garment, the world is doomed. The

soldiers of God are ever ready. The whites have tried to do certain things but this war

has eluded them and I am frightened about it all.

SECOND LESSON REVELATION 17:14

These shall make war with the lamb, and the lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord

of lords, and King of Kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and

faithful.

PRACTICE RIGHTEOUSNESS OR BE DESTROYED

The elect of God have no other commission apart from practicing the injunction of

God. All those who practice the injunctions of God will never experience the problems

that will engulf mankind. But all those who have hardened their hearts in sin and

believe that they are great and strong man in sin shall all be destroyed in a second. All

those who claim that they are the landlords and attribute must be made abreast of this

impending war in order for them to do a re -think. It is a long time since I told you this

but you keep being licentious. Can you make a noise here now that this truth is

dawned on you? There is fear and trepidation now. Most people have changed now

and if I had worn the black garment then, it could have been disastrous. Most people

have come to terms with the situation now. I am not telling tales, neither am I giving

you visions, but I am telling you the eternal truth that must be fulfilled. You know

that I have never said a thing that must not be fulfilled. But it is sad that even the

whites and blacks are unaware of this. You also refuse to rejoice and take delight in

this God even when it costs you nothing.

YOU ARE UNFORGIVING BUT..

I have forgiving you and count no sins for you but if you go back to sin, do not be

surprised at your fate the day I put on the black garment. Do not run home for

something terrible has happened and it won't call for cries and prayers. It is almost

~ 115 ~

like what happened with King Hezekiah and the King of Assyria during the war. The king of Assyria informed Hezekiah that his God should not deceive him for as he dealt

with other nations, he will deal with him and that he will surely burn his Gods with

fire. But King Hezekiah took the letter and placed it at the altar and prayed God, to

intervene on their behalf since man who breathe through his no strils cannot defeat

God. He prayed for God's will. That night God sent only one angel to Assyria's camp

who killed everybody in the camp. The following morning he came to see corpse that

littered everywhere. He went to Nineveh and on getting there his two children

beheaded him. This is not a fairytale but a true story.

Those who continue to doubt what I am saying will experience this. You want to see it

before you believe. Despite the fact that I continue to teach you day in day out, fasting

and toiling for the salvation of your souls, none is willing to hear. Not even

Brotherhood members. All those who had changed from Brotherhood where are they

now? If you leave Brotherhood today, tomorrow you are gone. Just try to move out. I

am on top of the palm tree, telling you that the palm fruits are not ripe, but you stay

down and claim that there are 20 ripe fruits on it. Go and harvest them. Do you think

that I am playing with you? I am telling you the truth. It is stated in the scriptures that

they will fight with the lamb, but are you equal to this task? This war started in 1912

and 1918. It is still that war that is prolonged till today. But you people do not want to

embrace the joy and peace that I have bestowed on you. There is nobody who has

shown a thankful heart to God.

GOD LOVES YOU

God is really in love with this generation, otherwise God would have done his will.

All the implements of war are ready. God had indeed planned to do something in the

world, but in his love and mercy, I had already came into the world and prayed the

father to remember his word. Even as we are talking, some of you are still

exasperated, angry and you continue to keep malice. Brethren, if you leave

Brotherhood you are ready for Long ministry. That will neither be caused by a gho st

or apparition but it is the promise of God.

SECOND WITNESS: ACTS 3:22-23

For Moses truly said unto the fathers, a prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto

you of your brethren like unto me. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which

will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

The word of God is sacrosanct. There is no addition or subtraction. God loves you but

you do not love yourselves, you do not give thought to your fate. I must continue to

warn you that not even a single sinner shall be saved. I admonish you to listen to the

word of God and practice. Everything is now fine. There is no more war, no more

lamentation, no death. I want everybody to be free with each other. The love of God is

great for us. I don't want to bury people here.

~ 116 ~

GOLDEN TEXT: REVELATION 19:17-END

And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all

the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, come and gather yourself together unto the

supper of the great God; that ye may eat the flesh of Kings, and the flesh of captains,

and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and

the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. And the beast was

taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which

he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped

his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And

the remnant, were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword

proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

DO NOT CHALLENGE GOD

You know the song rendered in Biakpan language, that God has overcome the world.

If there is any doubting Thomas’s here, let such a one continue to doubt and challenge

me to act and you will see what will happen. You should be able to reciprocate the

love of God for you. If the world were to know the being in their midst, then the

things would be done with joy. Now everybody should strive to move in the righteous

path and conduct all activities with joy and understanding.

NO THREE DAYS DARKNESS FOR YOU

They talked about three days darkness, but it is not to be experienced by all true elect

of God. As I am talking now if all sinners resolved to be truly repentant, then, they

will all be saved. But if anybody persists in sin, when I adorn myself with that war

garment then the worst would happen on earth. There will be no solution to the

problems that will befall mankind as no pleas or prayers will help. This is so because

you have been earlier informed. There was a certain man God used in his days. He

demanded for a medium from God and God gave him a dog. But the dog told him that

thieves would come and steal everything from his bank and other personal effects. He

became afraid. On the night that the thieves were to come he told everybody to stop

eating and they abandoned the house, and so prevented the thieves from coming. If

that had happened what could he have done. He thought but forgot about his life.

That year passed, two years passed. The dog told him that after tomorrow your house

and property will be gutted by fire.

The man recollected that two years ago, his bank was the target and this time fire with

all his property, but no life was to be lost. The man arranged with the fire service

department to help him. He prayed the father to intervene. The father did that without

complaining. Nothing happened on that day and everybody was happy. That year

passed by. The following year, the dog said, after tomorrow you will die. Now that

you have heard this, the Hall is quiet. How about those kids that used to cry? This is

because when God makes his declarations man must shut up. On hearing the message

of the dog, he became alert, and asked for what he will do to stay alive. The dog

~ 117 ~

asked, OH! You want life? I told you that thieves will come to attack your Bank did you ask me what to do? If you had asked me, I could have advised you to let them

come. Alright after two years, I told you that fire will consume everything in the place

except human beings. If you had asked me, I could have told you to allow it. But now

it appears you love your life more than anything.

On that day, the man died. That is why you are advised to be up and doing. It is no

vision but I do not know the day that, that black garment, will be worn because I do

not own myself. On that day you will not have where to run to and no panic measures

would help. That is why most people I know towing the path o f righteousness for the

war with the lamb is on. But the lamb has overcome for he is the king of kings and

Lord of lords. The war is fought with the children of God and all his elect. Because

they are after the truth, they have also come out victorious. As many as practice the

word of God such have also overcome the world.

Just as Christ used to say that those who have ears let them hear, I also confirm that

divine saying by saying he who has ears let him hear, may God bless his holy words,

Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

THE END OF TIME

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 12:29

"Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house and spoil his goods, except he

first bind the strong man? And then he will spoil his house."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 11:28

"Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

GOLDEN TEXT: ROMANS 10:12-13

"For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is

rich unto all that call upon Him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord

shall be saved."

INTRODUCTORY CHORUS

"Call upon me in the time of trouble, Call upon me I will answer you."

YOUR REAL SOURCE OF HELP

Brethren, the above song form the theme of this gospel. Many people think that there

exist another source of salvation other than calling on the name of God. This is the end

of time that had been foretold. It is a time that had often been foretold. It is a time in

which all the inhabitants of this earth should go to God on bended knees. It is

therefore practically unprofitable and sheer waste of time, energy, and money for any

man to go to the native doctor, soothsayer, or medical doctor for cure or salvation.

Seek after God and go to him urgently and on bended knees. Go to God with all your

problems for he will not fail to answer you. Whatever diagnose a physician, a

necromancer, or a seer may come up with as regards your problem, is false; and the

solution to your problem lies not with them.

The only solution to the problem of mankind lies in seeking for God. Go to him on

bended knees and in supplication and with a penitent heart, for he will surely receive

you. You should prostrate before him and confess your sins for he alone is capable of

forgiving you. No physician or native doctor or seer, can answer you when you are

faced with problems. None of them can forgive you your transgression or change you.

Only the Holy Spirit is capable of doing this. Go to God for he alone has the answer to

all your problems. Mankind has rebelled against his creator, becoming the biblical

prodigal son. The parable of our lord Jesus Christ has thus been fulfilled this day. It is

high time we all turned to God or else it will be too late. This is not a period to request

for mundane things. Now is time for us all to present ourselves before God and ask

Him to use us in accordance with His will. This is the time of mercy, and the door of

compassion has been flung open to mankind. The end of time is drawing nigh and

repentance might be rather late for any man who failed to take this opportunity.

~ 119 ~

THE SOURCE OF YOUR PROBLEM

Your problems do not come from your parents, husband, wife, children, community,

or government, but the sins you commit and you have refused to refrain fr om. Our

Lord Jesus Christ did illustrate it well in the parable of the prodigal son. A certain

man had two sons. One day, the younger of the two sons met his father and requested

for his own share of the father's inheritance. His father obliged and gave hi m his share

accordingly. After taking it, the son departed to a strange land. There, he squandered

the whole wealth in drinking, smoking, enjoying with women generally, and living a

deplorable life. He eventually exhausted the whole money and begged to be given

remnants of food usually thrown to pigs.

One day after much suffering, he regained his senses and remembered his Father's

estate with many laborers, and how he used to feed them. So he finally resolved to

return to his father. He summed up courage to go to his father on bended knees and

with a penitent heart. He said: "I will arise and go to my father and will say unto him,

father, I have offended against heaven and before thee, I am not worthy to be called

thy son, but take me back as one of your hired servants. (Luke 15:11- 12). It is

therefore the height of insolence and disregard for anyone to ask God to give him a

child, wife, husband, money, or anything.

Man should always be praying to God for forgiveness of his sins, because man has

derailed from the path of rectitude and man has fallen short of God's grace. What we

should do daily is to confess our sins and ask God for his forgiveness. That is exactly

what is expected of all human beings irrespective of your race and color. This too is

the cause of untold hardship and suffering in the world today. The present situation of

things in the world is the result of God's presence on earth. He wants the entire

humanity to worship him with penitent hearts.

Let no man contemplate suicide as a solution to the present situation in the world. Do

not think of running away from your country to any other place because He is

everywhere. Whether you climb to the peak of a mountain, or go into the abyss, there

is no salvation for you except you come to God on bende d knees. None of these things

and places hold salvation for man. If you come to him with a penitent heart, he will

surely wipe away both your sins and tears. For he is God of mercy and compassion

and he is ever ready and willing to forgive anyone who is pe nitent. If any person

should trace your problems to juju, witchcraft, apparition, mermaid, or any evil force,

do not believe. The real source of your problem is your sinfulness. The people of the

world are so afflicted because they have forsaken God and st ood far away from Him.

As the heaven is higher than the earth, so also is God's wisdom beyond human

comprehension. (Isaiah 55:9) The first lesson states clearly that man is the architect of his fate. It is also stated in the scripture that: for whom the lord loveth he chasteneth,

and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. ( Hebrew 12:6).

~ 120 ~

No person, therefore can get into the house of a strong man and plunder his goods except he binds his hands and legs first. Therefore God has not only bound the hands

and legs of the entire inhabitants of the world, but He has also sealed their eyes and

ears. Both the white and black races claim to be wiser than God and some claim that

God does not exist at all. The question is: "Are men able to detect the source of their

affliction?" Those who claim to be God, have they been able to provide solutions to the

world's problems? Can you imagine God's patience and mercy?

The whites have tried their utmost to create a human being and other things far

beyond their knowledge. This explains why they (the whites), arrogate to themselves

the status of Gods and would not believe that God exists at all. No man takes God and

His affairs seriously. People keep on enlisting the help of secret societies and cults, in

search of powers. They research into various spheres, scientifically and spiritually, but

to no avail. These are mere exercises in futility. They can never get any meaningful

solutions to the real problem that way. Church denominations are founded all over the

world. Some are named after families that founded them. But has that provided the

solution to man's problems? All these things that men do are meant to glorify

themselves.

Neither the church denominations nor any group of people have provided any

solutions to the world's problems. When God deemed it fit to send His only begotten

Son to earth, he first of all sent John the Baptist as His forerunner. Man had fallen

short of God's glory and grace. That was why He sent His only begotten Son to come

and shed His precious blood for the remission of man's sins and to draw man close to

God.

Christ Himself did say: "Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I

will send Him unto you.”(John 16:7). He also said in another passage: "I have many

things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit, when he, the spirit of

truth is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but

whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show you things to come. He

shall glorify me; for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. All things

that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I that he shall take of mine and shall show

it unto you. "(John 16:12-15).

How many church denominations and individuals have practiced the injunctions of

Our Lord Jesus Christ? Rather, mankind is busy with learning things of the world -

carnal teachings that would lead him only to destruction. It is worthy of note that

money, knowledge of science and technology or secret societies cannot bring salvation

to mankind. This time is hard and unfavorable for anybody who wishes to continue in

disobedience and sinfulness. It is really pathetic that the inhabitants of the world have

eyes but cannot see, they have ears, but they cannot hear, and they have minds but

~ 121 ~

they cannot think. Man thus is ignorant of what is happening around him. He has failed to give a thought to the events around him and their causes.

Take this message to all the corners and to all countries of the world. Take it to the

blacks, the whites, young or old, rich or poor; take it to the weak, the strong and to the

governments all over the world. They should be informed that they themselves are the

sources of their problems; that they have forsaken God who created heaven and earth

and all the things therein. As a result of this disobedience, God has personally tied the

hands and legs of man. Man must surrender to his Creator, recognize and worship

Him. In order to have peace, it is a must that man should listen to the instructions of

God and carry them out. Man should pray fervently for himself.

THE REIGN OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

This is the reign of the Holy Spirit which is built on love, truth, peace, perse verance,

mercy, and all the virtues. People continue to steal, quarrel, fight, and kill, indulge in

idolatry and live abominably. Do you not know that now is the reign of the Holy Spirit

which is built on love? It is stated in the scripture that: Where th ere is no vision the

people perish... (Proverbs 29:18). Therefore, this is a golden opportunity for all to

hearken to His clarion call and repent. The entire world is still filled with sins.

That is why the people are now tied both hands and legs in order to bring them to

submission. Governments, business organizations, churches and indeed the entire

inhabitants of the earth are rendered weak and incapacitated. Instead of progress,

there is now retrogression as a result of the disobedience of mankind. Famin e,

diseases, wars and various pestilences are the order of the day, far beyond the

understanding of man. Nobody knows the solutions to these problems. The answer is

simple: let us all turn to God on bended knees and with pertinent hearts, for he will

save us.

Meetings and conferences are held daily the world over and decisions are taken, yet,

there is no solution. Researches are done and treatises written on various problems,

yet the problems are far from any solution. All these efforts are in vain. The onl y

solution to man's problem is God himself who gives salvation and peace. Are people

not aware of the fact that their suffering and predicaments are clear indication of

God's displeasure with human activities? For man to experience peace and joy and

prosperity, he must flee from evil and refrain from sins. The academics, the

technocrats and scientists are at their wits end. The soothsayer and seers cannot

predict or foretell anything meaningful. Industries all over the globe are folding up.

What is responsible for all these? It is a clear indication of God's hand in the affairs of

man and a manifestation of His wrath upon the world.

~ 122 ~

The only solution for man is to retrace his steps by going back to God his Creator.

Whatever man is experiencing now is the tip of the iceberg, in other words, it is a

police action because the real calamity is yet to come. Withdraw your membership of

secret societies, refrain from stealing, smoking, drinking, and other forms of vices, and

go to God with a penitent heart. Nobody should waste his time and energy

condemning another person or church denomination. That alone is like adding salt to

injury.

God has not taken the people of the world unawares with the situation they find

themselves. These are the things that have long been spoken of. If you refer to the

gospel, you will see everything clearly stated by God that, He would shake both the

heavens and the earth at the close of the age. Therefore do not go to any person,

seeking for salvation, for he, the Holy Spirit, has incapa citated everybody, and he has

rendered human knowledge useless. Re-examine your life and ways now.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 12:29

“Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he

first bind the strong man and then he will spoil his house.”

WHERE ARE THE MEN OF VALOR?

Where are the mighty men of the world today? Where are the most powerful witch -

doctors and necromancers? Where are the world's eminent scientist, astrologers, the

economists and the world leaders? Have they been able to provide any solution to the

present situation in the world? We need to go back to God with penitent hearts for he

is love and the only answer to our problems. Apart from God, there is no salvation for

mankind. Any problem that is beyond man's ability must be handed over to God.

People should now realize that all the problems which could not be solved by human

beings are directly from God as punishment. In such cases only God himself can

provide solutions.

For example, minerals are produced, crops cultivated and money minted, yet the

world continues to be in want. Inflation spirals daily, and unemployment increases by

leaps and bounds. Even in America where jobs used to be in surplus, the

unemployment rate now scares even their renowned economists. Countries embark on

deportation of both legal and illegal aliens, for the purpose of easing unemployment

and other economic burdens, yet, these problems persist. The more the foreign

nationals are repatriated, the more the problems of the economy.

The solution to these problems lies not in sacrificing to idols, spilling human blood,

sending people to prison, or struggling for parcels of land. It is also vain for people to

get involved in endless litigations. Know that except a disease is properly diagnosed,

no cure could be effected. Except the correct and most potent medicine is prescribed,

how can the disease be cured? Christ openly said: "And if any man hear my words and

~ 123 ~

believe not, I judge him not; for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words hath one that judgeth him: the

words that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day." ( John 12:47-48).

The consequences for those who disobey His voice are terrible. This is the time for all

the wanderers to return home. The world has derailed from the path of rectitude and

God wants all to return to Him now. He made it clear that he came not to judge the

world, but to save it. All His injunctions are in our own interest. For instance we are

warned to refrain from stealing, fornication, adultery, hatred and malice, all these are

aimed at uniting us with God. The condition under which man finds himself is a direct

repercussion of his transgression. You should discard every mundane teaching and

practice God's injunctions. Do not get involved in idolatry and the worship of graven

images.

Peace and unity have eluded the entire world in various governments and church

denominations. Families, communities and nations are at daggers drawn and their

problems are endless. The only source of peace, unity and prosperity is God. All the

political and economic problems faced by the world today can never be solved by

human imagination and wisdom. Resources meant t o be used in developing local

governments, states and nations are diverted to private coffers. Only a few individuals

and their immediate families benefit from such public funds. The more the number of

states and local governments the greater the dimension of the problem faced by the

people. There are cases of embezzlement of public funds all over the world. Public

officers are looting their regional treasuries.

In spite of the huge revenues received from the sale of natural resources, nothing

positively is done to alleviate the suffering of the ordinary citizen because of mal -

administration and dishonesty. The socio-economic condition of the people is far from

being improved. The reason is that no person or government agent seeks after love

and dedication but after selfish interest. The proliferation of states and local

governments as witnessed in Nigeria for instance, has not helped matters. Instead, the

exercise has brought about numerous problems and hardships. This is so because the

problem of Nigeria has nothing to do with the creation of more states and local

governments. All the nations of the world are suffering from similar problems despite

spirited efforts aimed at mass production of different products. Tell the world to

refrain from sins and turn their hearts to God for immediate solutions to the perennial

hardship and global economic crunch.

The quantity of mineral deposits beneath the earth is inexhaustible; but since they did

not bring about our problems, they can neither provide solutions to th em. We have all

denied God and deserted Him, therefore, in order to direct our attention to Him, He

has bound us hands and legs. The only solution now is for us to go to him on bended

knees for repentance of our sins. As a merciful father, he will save us and take away

~ 124 ~

our problems. He is the king of peace, the father of love and life, the greatest teacher and the fountain of mercies. Since God is merciful, let us all kneel before his feet and

He will have mercy upon us.

This is not the time for anyone to boast about anything. Whether you are a white man

or a black man, rich or poor, do not boast about your position and do not weep

because of your condition either, but turn your mind to your Creator for salvation. Of

what importance is your status as a white man or a black man? What do you gain from

the riches of the world without gaining eternal life? What do you lose if you gain

eternal life without the riches of the world? You claim to have immense power and

wisdom, and to have founded a certain church denomination. The question is, what

added advantage has that brought to you over the other person?

VIOLENCE BEGETS VIOLENCE

If you claim to be the president of a country with immense powers, the question is, of

what benefit has that been to you as regards your salvation? Or have your powers and

status enhanced the betterment of the people's predicaments? Have you not used your

position to oppress and defraud the people? You loot public treasury, embarking on

white elephant projects with little or no economic value, just to boost your ego. You

assume the mantle of leadership through bloodshed, systematically eliminating your

opponents in order to consolidate your bloody reign. Who amongst the leaders of the

world has not spilled blood in one way or the other in order to rule? What solutions

have the violent changes brought to the welfare of the people?

When Peter severed the ear of the high priest's servant, Our Lord Jesus Christ told him

to put his sword into its place, for, those who took up the sword would die by it.

(Matthew 26:52) This explains why one person is killed by another and the chain of

killings continue unabated. God has enjoined man to refrain from killing, stealing, and

other atrocious acts; for whatever a man sows, same shall he reap. ( Galatians 6:7) In

other words, whatever you do to your fellow man, same shall be done to you in

return.

This is not the time for anyone to seek for a husband, wife, children, wealth or

anything mundane for such things are worthless and unprofitable. This is the right

time to seek for Jehovah God and his Christ now on earth in order that peace and

prosperity will reign in the entire world. That is the only source of our salvation. Read

the second lesson once again.

SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 11:28

"Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest."

~ 125 ~

THE MOST HIGH IS AWARE OF THE SITUATION IN THE WORLD

Why do you not listen to the King of peace and the God of love and be saved? It does

not cost you money or anything to turn to God and have eter nal life. Does it not occur

to you that He is perfectly aware of all the things going on in the world? He has not

asked you the nature of your problems but He has solutions to them. He wants all

those who labor and are heavy laden to come to Him and obtain rest. Therefore

whatever your predicament, come to Him for He will give you rest. The whites are

thinking of disarmament. They want to put a stop to the production and sale of deadly

weapons because of their long lasting effects. But have they? Stealing, idolatry, among

other vices are part of the most destructive weapons to mankind. These are the very

things man must first of all stop in order to obtain peace and rest. It is high time we

returned to our Creator and Master. Until we practice the teaching o f Our Lord Jesus

Christ, i.e. Love one another, our problems will persist.

It would not have cost the people anything to elect their leaders into various public

offices, if they had allowed the love of God to prevail. It is because of man's deceitful

tendencies and selfish motive that people have to contest for political offices and

would do everything possible to win. If your intention is genuine, why must you force

the very people you want to serve to vote you into power? If the people had lived in

love and with the fear God, they would have elected a candidate of their choice, a

worthy and popular person to pilot their affairs with the love of God. What good thing

can a president, a governor, or a legislator without the fear of God do? Any

administration run and sustained by the force of arms can never address itself to the

problems of the people. Cases of armed robbery attacks persists in spite of executions

by firing squad to deter the bandits.

The whole world has turned away from God. But this is the time for mankind to

retrace his steps and seek after his Creator God and he will have real peace and

prosperity: It is written in the Psalms: "Except the Lord build the house they labor in

vain that build it; except the Lord keep the city the watchman watc heth but in

vain."(Psalm 127:1) You should always note the above quoted verse from the scripture.

Do not waste your time in watching and building anything for yourself because it is

only God who can watch and build a nation. Are you sure that it is God who has

mandated you to keep watch or build or conduct elections? Can you see why you fail?

In 1979, Nigeria spent a fortune to restore democracy. Ironically, the whole exercise

was brought to naught and all the resources wasted because only thieves were ele cted

into various offices. Right now the march to the third Republic is on and you find that

two brothers are fighting over one position or the other. Each of them is ready to go to

any length to prevent the other from winning. What really is the cause of this? What

good thing could be derived from such hooligans when they finally take up the mantle

of leadership? Until the world finally realizes that it is love alone that reigns and that

~ 126 ~

whoever possesses it needs not campaign for any position to be electe d, the present trend of events will persist.

The Holy Spirit is in the world but the inhabitants of the world do not know Him.

Whether the world knows Him or not, this is the reign of the Holy Spirit. In short,

God's government has fully started. In order to be on the safe side, it is expedient that

the world leaders should peacefully surrender the rulership and governance to the

owner now. If you recognize your God and cling to him, all will be well with you

because he is truth and life.

The world continues to gaze into the sky, expecting Our Lord Jesus Christ to descend;

whereas He has for long set up His Divine Administration. He has nothing to do with

killing, idolatry, division, and anything sinful. The only thing that reigns in God's

kingdom is love. A pertinent question is asked in the scripture: "For what shall it

profit a man if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his soul?" (Mark 8:36).

THE WORLD IS IN A STATE OF SQUALOR

The trend of events in the world as a result of the rush-rush attitude of people is

amazing. There is much cheating, squandering of money, and looting of public funds.

The people are exposed to a state of hopelessness and squalor. Now the situation is

that of survival of the fittest. People these days violate natural laws with im punity to

get their way. Now is the time for man to stop these wicked activities and return to

God for salvation. This is not the time to cheat, oppress or kill others. God is the

owner of everything, including man himself.

If we desire power, love and truth, we should seek after God, for in God there is no

lie, no deceit, no oppression. If you receive bribe to elect a particular candidate into

an office, do you not think that such a person would want to recover and defray all his

expenses before thinking of the general interest of the masses? It is in view of this

situation that many politicians regard politics as investment and not as service to

humanity.

Many world leaders loot public treasury and keep whatever they steal in foreign

banks. When such leaders eventually die, the money is suddenly frozen and taken

over by the foreign government, yet their people suffer at home. Except we are truly

repentant and go back to God, problems on earth will continue endlessly.

Christ has therefore called on all the inhabitants of the world, all those who labor and

are heavy laden to come to Him and have rest. He has taken over the control of

everything that causes man to be proud and disobedient. Except man returns to his

Creator, man will continue to be in trouble and in chains. We are all naked before God.

~ 127 ~

This gospel with its revelation is being given so that the entire inhabitants of the world can be duly informed of the impending doom. A city without a prophet is

ruined, and that is the more reason this gospel should be disseminated throughout the

world. I have been waiting all this while to hear who will come out with the real

solution to the problems plaguing the world. No one has come up ever since and now

I am making this declaration to the whole world that t hey should return to God if they

desire peace and prosperity.

All the afflictions that plague mankind are brought about by His angels. The ants, the

mosquitoes, flies, rain, sun, lightening, thunder, earthquake, drought, fire, and so on

are all God's angels and messengers. God can use these things to inflict disease, pain,

sickness, starvation, and death upon the earth, if mankind offends Him. All the

political, economic, social and religious problems that afflict the world are products of

man's disobedience to God. The world should have now grown to a stage where it

should be problem-free. Man should now be speaking directly with his Creator and

enjoying His goodness.

He is ready to show His abundant mercies and love to mankind. He is peace, truth,

love, patience and all the good virtues you can think of. He rules the world with His

virtues. Go to Him with your problems and He will surely answer you. We have only

one Shepherd and as a matter of necessity, there will be only one flock. Testimonies

are given by various people about the power in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star to

solve any form of problem.

Those who read this gospel and receive baptism into brotherhood of the cross and star

will have their problems solved. The soothsayers, witch doctors, phy sicians and

similar people are quite aware of the fact there is no more power in their arts. Their

source of power had for long been completely cut off. The robbers, the deceivers, the

governments, the murderers are now rendered powerless. People keep on c onsulting

them out of ignorance and fear. This is the time for everyone to help himself.

GOD ABHORS COUP D'ETAT

Within a short period of time which the Nigerian government has not been toppled,

have you not noticed a remarkable change in the country? Frequ ent and abrupt

changes of governments contribute to the woes of many countries. It is the Holy Spirit

that causes all the things on earth, including activities during the present military

regime in Nigeria. The Biblical Prodigal Son returned to his father empty handed. On

his arrival, his father did not reject him but received him warmly. He ordered his

servants to slaughter the fattest calf to celebrate his return. He was clad in new and

expensive clothes. Everything suddenly changed for him. That is exact ly what God

expects everybody to do. He is ready to receive us anytime we turn a new leaf.

~ 128 ~

Often people would say, this is nothing to which we should call the name of God; it is no God's business. If it is not God's business, whose is it? For now, the Holy Spirit

takes dominion over everything in the world. Whether you are a Jew, a Pharisee,

Gentile, Sadducee, Greek, Nigerian, British, whatever you are, you are owned by God.

God does not discriminate, He gives equal treatment to all.

THE CASE OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH

Before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, God warned them: "To what purpose

is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me?” said the Lord: I am full of the burnt

offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bull ocks,

or of lambs or of the goats. When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this

at your hand, to tread my court? Bring me more vain oblations; incense is an

abomination unto me; the new moons and Sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I

cannot, away with. It is iniquity even the solemn meeting. Your new moons and your

appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

And ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make

many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood. Wash ye, make you clean;

put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes: cease to do evil, learn to do

well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet,

they shall be white as snow; though they be red as crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye

be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land." (Isaiah 1:11-19). On the other hand he further warned: "But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with

the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it." ( Isaiah 1:20).

If Sodom and Gomorrah had accepted God's condition and gone to Him, they would

not have perished. Our Lord Jesus Christ gave an assurance before His ascension: 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 they shall cast

out devils; and they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if

they drink anything deadly it shall not hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick and

they shall recover. (Mark 16:16-18). What then does it cost you to get out of bondage

and go back to God? What would you lose?

Many people who have baptized into this kingdom have testified of good luck and

fortunes upon baptism. A certain brother who was a beneficiary of such sudden

change was so surprised that he decided to investigate Brotherhood of the Cross and

Star, its origin and activities, right from Biakpan to Calabar, its headquarters, and

finding no foul play or anything incriminating, he left and shouted for joy. Therefore,

brethren, God does not charge you any fee to come to Him. He rather flings the gate of

His mercies wide open for all those who accept Him and repent, to pass through.

~ 129 ~

Preach this gospel to the entire world and to the unbelievers, tell the so -called world powers to disengage from the production of arms and follow God, that, this is the era

of the Holy Spirit, and He has come to reign forever. Therefore, they should give peace

a chance to prevail. Read the Golden Text once again.

GOLDEN TEXT: ROMANS 10:12-13

"For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: For the same Lord over al l

is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord

shall be saved."

THE OWNER OF THE VINEYARD HAS COME

God is not for any specific group of people or nations; he is for all. The same God is

for the blacks, the whites, men, women, young, old, weak, strong, rich and poor. He is

God of all and is ever ready to help those who call upon him. Events around the world

and even here in brotherhood point to the fact that God is here on earth. All these

things provide enough evidence for you to go into the world to tell the people that the

owner of the world is here. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star does not approve

idolatry, medication of any kind, nor membership of any secret society and the rest of

the vices. This is because we are well fortified.

A TESTIMONY

A brother from Adoni once testified at 34 Ambo Street, Calabar that he suffered from

tuberculosis for twelve years and he was vomiting blood. After going round the world

in search of remedy, he was finally brought 34 Ambo Street in 1975. That as soon as

the Father placed His hands on his head, he fully recovered. Since then he is hale and

hearty. Not only this but also, this brother became very rich. He built a beautiful story

building and had so much wealth that the people in his community doubted his source

of wealth. Two people who rose against him as a result of his God given wealth

became mentally deranged in the course of their diabolical investigation. Others who

were against Him finally came back to plead for forgive ness when they found that

they could not destroy him. They told him that they did not know that his wealth was

from his God.

But about forty necromancers who had also attempted to do away with this brother

came to him and asked him to leave the community b ecause they could not contain the

power of Olumba Olumba Obu. According to this brother, he rebuffed these evil men

and even went out to the village square to announce to the whole community that all

powers from witch doctors have been rendered useless and powerless. That the only

solution to man now is to turn to the living God who is now on earth.

~ 130 ~

As a result of the overwhelming power of the Holy Father, the forty necromancers have now baptized into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and all their charms a nd

amulets burnt to ashes. So you should go into the whole world and inform the people

to run away from their former ways and turn to God for salvation.

Whoever persecutes a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star can never go scot

free. Even if a whole community should rise against you the father shall overcome

them for you. Tell the world to flee from evil and every form of unrighteousness and

follow God, for as He did to the Israelites so shall He do to the Gentiles in this

generation. Apart from members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, no other people

are commissioned and empowered to carry this divine message to the world. You are

hereby asked to come to God and He will surely forgive you. Once you surrender your

body and soul to Him, He will bless you and protect you.

Do not preach to the people that they should come to brotherhood of the cross and

star. Tell them to flee from unrighteousness and go to God with penitent hearts for he

will wipe away their tears and give them rest. A stroke of th e cane is enough for the

wise. May God bless His Holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER

~ 131 ~

LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE

GOLDEN TEXT: GALATIANS 6:5

For every man shall bear his own burden.

THE EVIL THAT MAN DO LIVES AFTER THEM

It will be good for everyone who have heard the words of God to investigate it's

authenticity. This call becomes necessary because some of us believe the words

without even finding out the truth thereof. God is the truth and all his words are

truth. Be careful therefore, every man shall bear his own burden. To attest to the fact

that, God's words are true, it is said that, any child who does not want his mother to

sleep in the night; he or she will also be awake throughout that same night. Similarly,

now that mankind has refused to keep God's instructions, as such, they cannot have

life. Now that every person is seeking his own glory, have you got such glory, Peace

or salvation? This is the bane of your life. A closer observation of the world will reveal

that the condition of mankind is bad. There is confusion, hopelessness, trouble and

problems everywhere including the churches, government and communities.

The question is, has man ever sat down to cogitate over the situation? It is a thing of

pity that man is suffering seriously due to his insubordination. And the local adage

has it that, though the two palms shall gum together, the evil doer will not go

unpunished. Now, what do you think will be the result of those who worship God?

And what will the lives of those who have vowed t hat they will never forsake sin,

what will their lives look like? What will profit those who have promised never to do

any good thing? If you read through historical books, you will realize that, the end of

those who were murderers, idolaters, adulterous, wicked people, rogues, liars, cheats

deceivers and other evildoers was really bad, then you would regret your negative

lifestyle.

The end of every evil person is always evil. This fact is not far -fetched, in your

community or family, such people and their end are always seen. This explains why

we must seek for God. We have been living our lives the way we think is good for us

and so, have suffered. Do not forget the story of the prodigal son as recorded in Luke

15:11–19: “And he said, A certain man had two sons: And the younger of them said to

his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto

them his living. And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and

took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.

And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to

be in want. And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent

him into his fields to feed swine.

~ 132 ~

And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants

of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise

and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and

before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired

servants.”

Remember that he spent all the portion of the inheritance given to him by his fathe r

with harlots and others. He became so poor and wretched that he even ate the

remnants of pig's meals. Everything wealth, life, peace and joy deserted him and so, he

was left with no choice than to go back home and plead with his father for forgiveness.

Hear what he said below:

“And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.

And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father

saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, an d kissed him.” Luke

15:19-20

God has all things to give you. He has life, peace, joy, wealth, food and every other

thing you require in life but what he is after is your lifestyle. And is said that,

everybody shall bear his burden as stated in the gold en text. Do not attribute your

problems and hard times to God for you are responsible for them all this is a result of

your stubbornness. The era of deceit and cheating has passed. This is not the time for

anybody to be directed on what to do before he does it because, every man shall bear

his own burden. All those who boast about how they can commit one evil or the other,

raising their shoulder high, what is always the end of their lives? Observe even in

your own community, what is usually the end of such people. If you see that the life of

those who behaved disorderly did not end well, why do you want to be like them?

Since, our forefathers did not walk by the instructions of God and ended their lives in

fiasco and catastrophic, we have to retrace our ste ps in time. We have to abide by the

words and injunction of God so that we may not end up like them. God has always

existed and shall exists for eternity. We have all things enough and to spare. The

trouble with man is that, he has never sought after or tr usted in God. And he is bound

to suffer as long as he does not seek, trust and follow God. Man has left God to seek

after poverty, sickness, persecution, lack and death. You, who say that death is very

powerful, have you not read what would become of death and Hades as record below:

“And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.”

Revelation 20:14

In verse 15 mention was made of those that will also be cast into the lake of fire, read

below for more clarification: “And whosoever was not found written in the book of

life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:15

~ 133 ~

Therefore, it is erroneous for one to say "I better die and have some rest" unless you were destined to rest, you cannot rest. Sincerely, those who say that Satan is very

powerful should read Revelation 12:9: “And the great dragon was cast out, that old

serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out

into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

Brethren, this is an opportunity for one to investigate the efficacy of God's words.

Investigation from community into the wide world, in the schools, business premises

and place of work. You have to study carefully the teachings of this kingdom and how

they apply to daily happenings in the world. It is said that, if you want to tread the

wrong path, the Lord will allow you to go because you are a child of perdition. You

are free to tell lies, commit fornication, and do all sorts of evils but remember that,

God does not resist and evildoer and do not also forget this advice that, whatever one

sows, same shall he reap. Let us learn from our Lord Jesus Christ who lived a life of

humility, peace, kindness, goodness and righteousness. Unfortunately, nobody in the

world is ready to follow his steps.

To the greatest surprise, humankind follows the way of Satan in stead of following the

way of our Lord Jesus Christ. God has told us that: “For the wages of sin is death; but

the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

And after knowing this therefore, why should we contin ue to commit sins? It means

that we are willing and ready to die. If human being were to be wise, no person in the

entire world would have committed sins anymore. People cheat, deceive, fight, quarrel

and cause confusion. What do you think will be the end of such people? We tell lies,

disgrace people, abuse, defame one another's characters and accuse one another. The

question is what will be the end of our life? Nebuchadnezzar, Pharaoh, King Saul,

Solomon, Goliath and many other prominent people of old suffered severely because

of the evil they committed. And in the same way, you will also bear your own burden.

Therefore, whatever you want to do, consider first the effect of such act. If you want to

elope with someone's wife or husband, first think of the aftermath of such act. Recall

what happened to Angel Lucifer when he disobeyed God by not excepting to bow to

the Son of God, Jesus the Christ.

He was powerful and closer to God yet, when he disobeyed God he was thrown away.

What is the position of Lucifer now? He (Lucifer) has been reduced to an object of

ridicule. Lucifer right now has no place of abode and so, roams about aimlessly. All

these are happening to him because he rejected the instructions of God, to worship the

first son of the most high. And our Lord Jesus Christ said that, “Then said he unto the

disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through

whom they come!” Luke 17:1 KJV

You can now see how authentic these words are for even Judas Iscariot who betrayed

him committed suicide and did not receive the salvation of God.

THE EVIL DOER CANNOT GO UNPUNISHED

I am making it categorically clear that there is no salvation for all those interested in

hindering progress of others. Anyone who plans another person's downfall shall not

receive God's salvation. Those who boast that they fear nobody, and that they have the

right to do whatsoever they like should be reminded, that every man shall bear his

burden. Recall the punishment of the snake which, up till now is crawling on its belly,

it received this everlasting punishment because he deceived the children of God and

made them commit sin. The woman was also cursed for tasting the forbidden fruit,

and giving to Adam, her husband. This account is recorded thus:

Genesis 3:1-16 KJV “Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field

which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, ye

shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We

may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in

the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it,

lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God

doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall

be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good

for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one

wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with

her; and he did eat. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they

were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day:

and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the

trees of the garden. And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, where art

thou? And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was

naked; and I hid myself. And he said, who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast tho u

eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? And the man

said, the woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did

eat. And the Lord God said unto the woman, what is this that thou hast done? And the

woman said, the serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. And the Lord God said unto the

serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every

beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of

thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed

and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Unto the woman

he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt

bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over

thee.”

That is why women suffer during conception and child delivery. They are to remain perpetually under their men, no matter how small the man may be. A curse w as

extended to the man forever accepting the forbidden fruit from the woman thereby

disobeying God. He is to suffer seriously before he can feed or progress in life. The

sand of the earth, the leaves, woods and minerals resources abound everywhere yet, it

is still very difficult for man to feed. We are only reaping what we have sewed. Each

country produces its own money yet money and property are hitting the entire

universe. There are so many hospitals and clinics yet sickness and death are at a

frightening rate. The cause is that, we are bearing our individual burdens. There is no

mercy to anyone who does not have mercy on others. There is no salvation for such a

person. Take a lesson from what happened to the people in Noah's era. Noah preached

the word of God for 120 years yet, none believed in his words. Instead they married,

drank, ate, traded, farmed, fought for money and generally enjoyed life. At the end,

what happened?

God directed Noah to make a ship (the Ark) the people turned the Ark into a publi c

laboratory and all passed feces and urine therein. Even then, God showed a sign to

them, for that particular public laboratory became a hospital of a sort. An epileptic

patient who visited the laboratory (Noah's ark) being tormented by the sickness

dropped into the feces but got healed instantly. When the news reached out, others

with diversified sicknesses also visited the Noah's (ark) laboratory, swarm in the mess

and they too received their healing. Having destroyed this, the people all came with

different diseases and rub themselves with the very feces they passed out. This did not

stop them from passing feces into the ark or stop drinking and fornicating.

They did not know that something is happening in their midst. Finally, God ask Noah

to wash the ark and gather into it all kinds of animals male and female. Noah and his

entire family also went in and then the great rain began. This rain fell for 40 days and

40 nights and the entire world submerged in flood. Consequently, everybody bore his

own burden.

In the era of Lot, he also preached to the people of Sodom and Gomorrah but they did

not listen to him. God sent message to them that they should repent, yet they were

adamant. God sent two angels in human form to them and these angels came as Lots

visitors. The people of Sodom and Gomorrah attempted to murder them even against

Lots pleadings. Lot even offered to give his daughters (virgins) to them for murder

instead of his visitors yet, they did not accept. They wanted to kill the two strangers at

all cost. However, the two young men were inside Lots house eating, after which they

told Lot not to worry himself. They told Lot to allow the people of Sodom and

Gomorrah to come in and take them (visitors).

The people of Sodom and Gomorrah went into Lots ho use but could not see these two

men eating and smiling right before them. The angels asked Lot to leave the city with

~ 136 ~

his entire household. They also instructed Lot that, as he was going, he and his household should not look back. Lots wife however looked back because of her

mundane wealth, which were left behind. Instantly she became a pillar of

salt. Remember that it was neither Lot nor his children who became the pillar of salt

but his wife who disobeyed the instruction of the Angels. You can see that e veryman

bears his, own burden. In the same way, those of you who would not abide by the

instructions of God in this era shall bear your own burdens. Our Lord Jesus Christ

said that: “Verily I say unto you, this generation shall not pass, till all these thi ngs be

fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of

that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”

Matthew 24:34-36 KJV

Let our golden text be re-examined:

GOLDEN TEXT: GALATIANS 6:5

For every man shall bear his own burden.

WHATEVER YOU SOW SAME SHALL YOU REAP

When you boast of having wealth, father, mother, brethren or children, do you think

any of them will bear your burdens? You will bear your own burden. Your wealth,

community or country of origin cannot save you neither can wealth, community or

country bear your burdens. For this reason, God is using this chance to inform us of

what we are to face; so that we may use this chance to save ourselves. You emulate

any bad act, know that you will bear your own burden. If you commit fornication,

murder or steal just for the fact that others are doing it, know that everyone shall bear

his own burden.

Recall what Jesus the Christ told the woman of Jerusalem: “But Jesus turning unto

them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for

your children. For, behold, the days are coming, in the which, they shall say, Blessed

are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.

Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, fall on us; and to the hills, and cover us.

For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?” Luke 23:28-

31 KJV

A spiritual song has it that: "you evil Child think of yourself, upon all the sufferings I received on the tree, think twice so that you would not perish." Do not think of your

father, mother, spouse, children friends or foes, but think of yourself, for each person

shall bear his own burden. There is much joy in heaven when a sinner repents.

Now, the most, high God is seeking for you, and the entire human race to follow his

ways. Let us follow him so that we may have peace and life. There is no good result or

profit from being wicked. Cheats, dupes, swindlers shall bear their own burden. Let

nothing therefore, prompt you to commit sin else, you will bear your own burden.

~ 137 ~

As it was with the people of old who did not practice the words of God, so shall it be with the people of this generation who come here to perpetuate ills and troubles. They

shall all bear their burdens. Is it not a pathetic situation to see a member of

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star complaining of lack of peace, poverty, sickness and

other ills?

Such a person should ask himself a question. Examine your activities and you would

know that you are suffering because of your burdens, which you are bearing due to

your sins. The entire world is witness to the power and peace, here in brotherhood.

Now, if you are a brother, sister, visitors, healer or a dreamer in Brotherhood of the

Cross and Star and still lack peace, good health or anything, why not ask yourself

questions? You claim to be the oldest member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star,

yet you are cunning and deceitful. Let me make it abundantly clear to you that not an

iota of sin will be allowed into the kingdom. Remember that you will bear your own

burden. The fact that some, people are living peacefully while others do not mean that,

everyone will bear his own burdens due to his sin.

Brethren, I will not take you further. A stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise.

Those who have ears to hear; let them hear. May the Lord bless his holy words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER
