BIBLE CLASS, WATCH AND PRAY
HOLY THURSDAY
Luk 22:7 Then came the day of unleavened bread,
when the passover must be killed.
Luk 22:8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and
prepare us the passover, that we may eat.
Luk 22:9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou
that we prepare?
Luk 22:10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye
are entered into the city, there shall a man meet
you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the
house where he entereth in.
Luk 22:11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the
house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the
guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with
my disciples?
Luk 22:12 And he shall shew you a large upper room
furnished: there make ready.

2. Luk 22:13 And they went, and found as he had said
unto them: and they made ready the passover.
Mat 26:26 And as they were eating, Jesus took
bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to
the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
Mat 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks,
and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
Mat 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament,
which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
Mat 26:29 But I say unto you, I will not drink
henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day
when I drink it new with you in my Father's
kingdom.
Mat 26:30 And when they had sung an hymn, they
went out into the mount of Olives.
Luk 22:14 And when the hour was come, he sat
down, and the twelve apostles with him.
Luk 22:15 And he said unto them, With desire I have
desired to eat this passover with you before I
suffer:
Luk 22:16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat
thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
Luk 22:17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks,
and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:
Luk 22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the
fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall
come.

3. Luk 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and
brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my
body which is given for you: this do in remembrance
of me.
Luk 22:20 Likewise also the cup after supper,
saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood,
which is shed for you.
Luk 22:21 But, behold, the hand of him that
betrayeth me is with me on the table.
Luk 22:22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was
determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is
betrayed!
Mat 26:36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a
place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the
disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
Mat 26:37 And he took with him Peter and the two
sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and
very heavy.
Mat 26:38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is
exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye
here, and watch with me.
Mat 26:39 And he went a little further, and fell on his
face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be
possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless
not as I will, but as thou wilt.

4. Mat 26:40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and
findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What,
could ye not watch with me one hour?
Mat 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into
temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh
is weak.
Mat 26:42 He went away again the second time, and
prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not
pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be
done.
Mat 26:43 And he came and found them asleep
again: for their eyes were heavy.
Mat 26:44 And he left them, and went away again,
and prayed the third time, saying the same words.
Mat 26:45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith
unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest:
behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is
betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Mat 26:46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand
that doth betray me.
Mat 26:47 And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of
the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude
with swords and staves, from the chief priests and
elders of the people.

5. THE DAY OF PASSOVER:
Mat 26:17 Now the first day of the feast of
unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus,
saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare
for thee to eat the passover?
Mat 26:18 And he said, Go into the city to such a
man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is
at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with
my disciples.
Today is that day our Lord Jesus Christ offered
that statement, this same day. THIS WAS TO
MAKE YOU KNOW THAT THIS PASSOVER WAS
NOT PREPARED IN CHURCH OR PRAYER
HOUSES NOR IN THE BUSH, BUT HE SIMPLY
TOLD THE DISCIPLES TO GO TO THE CITY AND
TO A CERTAIN MAN'S HOUSE. Bread was not
taken with them. Where do you think the bread
for the feast of Passover will come from? Again
He said “he who eats with me in the same dish,”
and I ask, do you eat bread in the dish with
people? While we are here the Passover is
being prepared and you have partaken of the
Passover with Him. He said, “whosoever
therefore shall break one of these least

6. commandments, and shall teach men so, he
shall be called the least in the Kingdom of
heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach
them, the same shall be called great in the
kingdom of heaven,” ( Matt. 5:19).
This feast is not celebrated because we have
money, or because we are worthy, it is not
performed for our well being, but it is done for a
remembrance and also for people who were not
there that day to know what happened. It is
said that when one sees the corpse, definitely
tears must come out of the eyes. You can now
see that He was not crucified on Friday but
Thursday to avoid tumult. You will also note
that this Passover was not prepared on that
Wednesday but in advance, and this further
confirms His words to be the veritable truth.
This afternoon of the Passover started and
according to the Jewish way of counting time,
Thursday started a minute after 6 p.m. of
Wednesday evening and that was the start of
His trial. If you partake of this feast at 5 p.m. or
6 p.m., it is not the Passover. If a man dies on
Monday and when you want to remember him,
you do it on Tuesday, you are wrong. That is

7. why we do exactly what happened on that day
at the appropriate time whether humanity
believes or not. This shows you that Christ is
the same today, tomorrow and forever.
The disciples asked our Lord Jesus Christ
where the Passover would be prepared and the
same question has come up today. Do not term
this question as asked by the Jews and Greeks
but regard it as asked by you now. This
question also goes to all Christendom: WHERE
ARE YOU GOING TO PREPARE THE PASSOVER?
THE SON OF MAN IS GOING INTO HIS GLORY
AND ARE WE NOT TO PREPARE THE
PASSOVER? IT IS NOT CALLING JESUS, JESUS,
LORD OF LORDS AND KING OF KINGS BUT GO
INTO THE WORLD AND ASK OF WHERE THE
PASSOVER WILL BE PREPARED? The direct
answer is that you should go into the city and
enter into a certain man's house and make him
know that the teacher wants a place prepared
for the Passover.
THE TRUTH HAS COME TO STAY
That is why Brotherhood of the Cross and Star
is called Christ Universal Spiritual School of

8. Practical Christianity. Nothing is added or
subtracted and there is no studying but a
practical demonstration of the truth of things.
As God has rightly said, any person who adds
any word to His word of prophesy will have all
the afflictions in the Bible and will have his
name removed from the book of life. Here in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star nobody adds
and subtracts and this is why our Lord Jesus
Christ said that the Comforter will reveal to you
all the truth. It is wrong to say that Leader O.O.
Obu said this or that, but say that our Lord
Jesus Christ said it. That is why when people
read through our publications, they would tell
you that the Leader has confirmed that He is
not Christ and now what are you talking about?
IT IS CHRIST THAT HAD SAID, CONTINUES TO
SAY AND WILL SAY EVERYTHING FOREVER.
The Passover will be prepared and eaten
tonight and as soon as you eat it, you have
taken on yourself the sins of the world, and you
will surrender your lives as ransom for the
salvation of the world as our Lord Jesus did.
That is why on Wednesday we have the Bible
class, watch and pray till 3 a.m. 6 a.m. on

9. Thursday starts the fasting depicting the time
He was sentenced to death and later nailed to
the cross at 9 am. We have no other work to do
but to unveil the events of that day to those
who were not there. You may have been there
when this event happened and that is why it is
always said that we of the olden times have
come back again.(JOHN 15:27)
IF YOU WERE NOT THERE THEN, HOW DO YOU
COME BY THESE NAMES, PASTOR, PROPHET,
APOSTLE AND EVANGELIST. MANY OF YOU DO
NOT KNOW WHY YOU ARE PLACED IN THESE
POSITIONS. IT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED IN
THE PAST THAT IS RE-ESTABLISHED AND A
FULFILLMENT OF THE PROCLAMATION OF OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST WHEN HE SAID THAT THE
COMFORTER SHALL TEACH YOU ALL THINGS,
AND BRING ALL THINGS TO YOUR
REMEMBRANCE, WHATSOEVER I HAVE SAID
UNTO YOU. "And God had set some in the
Church, first Apostles, second Prophets, thirdly
Teachers, after these miracles, then gifts of
healing, helpers of governments, diversities of
tongues 1st Corinthians (12:28) and this is what
you are seeing today done in Brotherhood of the

10. Cross and Star, falling in line with what our Lord
Jesus Christ had said when He said that the
Comforter will open to you all the truth. ALL
THAT YOU HAVE SEEN IS THE REVELATION OF
THE GLORY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, NOT
THE GLORY OF ANYBODY ELSE. YOU SHOULD
NOT LOOK FOR YOUR PERSONAL GLORIES BUT
THAT OF CHRIST.
What is done here in Brotherhood of the Cross
and Star is what had been done, it is what we
have to do and will be done forever. It is
sorrowful that many members of the
Brotherhood do not partake of the watch and
pray and the feast we conduct daily but they
rather say that God dwells in their hearts.
Have you not heard what he has said? He said
whoever does drink of my blood and eats of my
flesh will have eternal life. Again Jesus said to
His disciples: IF YOU WATCH WITH ME FOR AN
HOUR AND IF YOU WATCH AND PRAY YOU WILL
NOT ENTER INTO TEMPTATION. WATCH OUT
AND PRAY SO THAT YOU WILL NOT ENTER INTO
TEMPTATION.
Did the disciples not enter into temptation? Yes,
they did because they did not watch and pray.

11. Our Lord Jesus Christ was arrested at 3 a.m. on
Thursday, this is the reason we observe a vigil
night every Wednesday to watch and pray, until
3 a.m. on the following day.
From 3 a.m. until 6 a.m. Our Lord Jesus Christ
was tortured, This is exactly how we conduct
our system so that nothing is added nor
subtracted. At 9 a.m. He was nailed on the Cross
and at 3 p.m., He shouted and gave up His Ghost
and finally at 6 p.m. His body was removed by
Joseph of Arimathaea.
IF YOU TAKE STOCK OF WHAT HAPPENED TO
HIM ON THE CROSS YOU WILL REALIZE THAT
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST DESERVES TO BE
WORSHIPED, HONORED AND RESPECTED AND
WE SHOULD WORSHIP HIM WITH REVERENCE
BY REFRAINING FROM SINS. HERE IN THE
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
PEOPLE SAY THAT WE ARE WORSHIPING MAN.
WE WORSHIP GOD, WE HONOR GOD.
If you say you are a Brotherhood member and
this night you are not here, what Brotherhood
are you? If you say that you were here for the
Pentecostal Assembly and today you are not
partaking in the great feast which type of

12. Pentecostal were you coming to attend? Can
you now see people claiming to be in
Brotherhood for twenty years without deriving
any benefit? If you preach and teach others to
practice same you are the highest.
SOME BETHELS DO NOT KEEP WATCH AND
PRAY AT ALL, WHILE IN OTHERS THEY DO IT
AND STOP AT 1 A.M. IS THAT WATCH AND
PRAY? SOME BETHELS DO IT WITHOUT FEAST.
IS THAT WHAT I TEACH YOU? IS THAT WATCH
AND PRAY? EVEN HERE BEFORE ME SOME
PASTORS, APOSTLES ETC., DO NOT COME TO
WATCH AND PRAY. IS THAT THE WAY YOU CAN
REWARD CHRIST?
THIS MANNER OF KEEPING WATCH AND PRAY
AND OBSERVING HOLY THURSDAY WILL
CONTINUE FOREVER.
Dear brethren, I do not want to be tedious unto
you, those who have ears let them heat. May
God add blessings to His Holy words - Amen.

13. ORDER OF OBSERVANCES ON WEDNESDAY
EVENINGS
Everything we do in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is
exactly as was done by our Lord Jesus Christ. Our Lord knew
that the jews had conspired to arrest and kill him on Thurs­
day. He then decided to eat the last supper with his disciples
on Wednesday night, Before He did, he gathered them and
instructed and taught them This we do till today. The
greatest experience anyone can have is attending a EHbie
class lecture given by the Supernatural Teacher (Leader
0.0. Obu) himself. It is in these lectu res that secrets of
heaven and earth and the true meaning of the scriptures
are revealed by Him.
The Sole Spiritual Head has decreed that Bible Class
and Watch and Pray be conducted in all bethels on Wed­
nesdays evenings and fasting on Thursdays no matter the
attendance. Bible class should also hold on Saturday even­
ings.

15. ORDER OF WATCH AND PRAY
After Our Lord Jesus Christ finished admonishing, instruc­
ting and teaching his disciples, he washed their feet and
ate the last supper with them. He knew the hour of his betra­
yal was at hand and he began to be sorrowful and heavy at
heart. He then started to keep virgil and pray. This lasted,for
three hours from midnight to 3 a.m.. and he asked his disci­
ples to watch and pray with him. At 3 a.m. the jews (led by
Judas) came and arrested him. Till this day we observe
watch and pray and the Holy Spirit has directed that bre­
thren who, for any reason, cannot be physically in atten­
dance in the bethel, may observe watch and pray in their
homes by staying awake between midnight and 3 a.m.
Wednesday night is a very important night in Brotherhood
because it was on this night our Lord drank the cup of woe.
All brethren must therefore observe Bible class and watch
pray.

evening except that John 17 is read instead of Psalm 51.
If for any reason Bible class is not held on Wednesday
in any bethel, full service should be conducted. In this
case John 17 is the first Bibte reading. Thereafter the first
lesson and then golden text. If a service is held as first part
on Wednesday instead of Bible classs, then during watch and
pray John 17 is no longer read but Matthew 26: 1 - end.
Some people still read John 17 and it is still perfectly in
order.
