LOVE THE CHILDREN
FOR CHILDREN ARE THE LEADERS OF TOMORROW
Then were there brought unto him little children, that he
should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples
rebuked them.
But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to
Come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. And he
laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
MATTHEW 19:13-15:

THE TEACHING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
My concern is to draw your attention to the teaching
of Our Lord Jesus Christ with regards to a child's
upbringing. All along, you have been praying and
fasting, do you know that, if you receive the little
children, that you have equally received Christ?
Anyone, who is charitable to the little children, does
same to Christ. Such a person is saved and has his
ways made opened.
You claim to be a Christian while you still indulge in
scolding, shunning and treating the children with
disdain. What sort of Christianity do you profess?
Where have you learned such from? The question is,
do you know that, the little children you scold,
punish and shun are more powerful and
knowledgeable than you? Do you also know that they
posses more love, peace, humility and other
heavenly attitudes than you? If we were to know
that, the children are our saviors we should have
refrained from punishing them at random. And we
would have equally been free from suffering.
BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU

THE GREATEST SET OF PEOPLE:
The little children of this world are the greatest set
of people. The children of certain parents are
commissioners, governors and great people.
Sometime, their parents may not be high placed but
the children would occupy exalted positions. This is
a veritable truth that, anyone who, receives and
embraces a little child, has equally received and
embraced God. Scolding, cursing and beating of
children, do not constitute the needed lessons for
children. Therefore, we should refrain from such
attitudes completely. If you indulge in such vices it
means you are encouraging them to indulge in evil.
And by so doing, you have waged war against God
and you are bound to encounter series of problems.

LOVE THE CHILDREN:
THIS GOSPEL SHOULD BE DISSEMINATED TO ALL
AND SUNDRY IN EVERY PART OF THE WORLD.
INFACT, THE GOSPEL IS GOING TO REVEAL TO YOU
WHAT REALLY CONSTITUTES THE DOWNFALL OF
MAN. EVERY SPIRIT AND ANGEL OF GOD CAN BE
FOUND TO BE PRESENT IN THIS KINGDOM. SO,
THERE IS GREAT JOY FOR THOSE WHO
BEHOLD THE HOLY SPIRIT PERSONIFIED.
TREAT CHILDREN WITH LOVE:
An adage has it that a good beginning makes for a
good end. It is also said that "charity begins from
home." Now, if we fail to embrace the children and
give them equal right how would things go well with
us? The salvation of the world is in the hands of the
little ones. The children today are the future leaders,
those to occupy all important positions in the world.
But if we fail to tolerate, love and lead them by
showing good examples to them, how then would
they, perform the role expected of them?
Have you now seen the cause of the suffering faced
by the world? This gospel is also directed to those
who are fond of speaking ills so as to correct them.

To the elderly people, they should equally read this
gospel to correct their false impression that they are
often being treated like children. Some would say,
"do not treat me like for a child for I am an adult."
When you take delight in punishing children and
treating them without respect, you should realize
that, you have, failed woefully. By so doing, what do
you think you have succeeded in doing? Do you want
them to copy your violent attitude?
Have you ever read and understood the three main
texts of this gospel? From any observation, you do
not deserve any work at all, in fact, you score zero
by maltreating children. You are easily provoked
whenever children do one particular thing or the
other. It is a thing of pity to see some parents
maltreating their very children, at the same time
they believe that such strict attitude is corrective to
enhance the proper growth of the child.
You may have read what Our Lord Jesus Christ said
with regards to our bad attitudes towards the
Children in our first bible lesson. The little children
deserve mercy and love from the adults regarding
the suffering they are subjected to, in the hands of
some adults. Really, your attitude towards the
children, leaves much to be desired.

Instead of providing them with leadership roles, you
instead give them bad training that tends to harden
them. They have been thought to be stubborn and
insulting. It is quite true that, the children are not
born into the world with stubbornness. Rather, it is
our attitude of punishing them, depriving them of
good and other right, that hardened them. It is the
cause of children's stubbornness and insult.
What do you think of their behaviour in their youth
after being subjected to all forms of ill-treatments.
You do not know anything yet you claim to know so
much. Have you now seen the reason why the
children are placed in the most exalted position
here. Here in this kingdom, one could afford to toy
with any group of people but not the children. So,
they (children) need to be properly taken care of, for
they are those at the apex of this very kingdom.

UNIVERSAL LOVE FOR CHILDREN ALL OVER THE WORLD
CHILDREN, THE HOPE OF MANKIND:
In the entire world, there is no one who would say that
he/she cares for children apart from the ones he/she bears.
And whoever cares, loves and receives the little children,
along with his/hers deserves God's blessing.
THE INJUNCTION WHICH IS CONTAINED IN THE SECOND
LESSON CALLS FOR A UNIVERSAL LOVE FOR CHILDREN
ALL OVER THE WORLD. DO NOT BE HARSH WITH LITTLE
CHILDREN, RATHER TREAT THEM KINDLY, RECEIVE AND
CARE FOR THEM, FOR IN SO DOING YOU HAVE RECEIVED
CHRIST. I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT IF YOU DO THIS WITH
HONESTY, YOU WILL HAVE YOUR WAYS OPENED AND
GOOD THINGS OF LIFE WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU.
The little, children do not lie, steal, murder, bear malice etc.
They do not commit sin. And so if you receive and love them,
it invariably means that you love Christ. Whosoever does not
sin is Christ and so any child who does not commit any sin is
Christ.
I personally do not toy with the little children, I want them
first in everything here in the kingdom. This is so, because
they are the future leaders and above all they are the
kingdom of God. If you were to understand the importance of
the children of God in this kingdom, you would not toy with
them.

THIS IS WHAT MAKES BROTHERHOOD OF THE
CROSS AND STAR UNIQUE.
*It is very easy to teach a child something provided
your teachings do not deviate, from the Father's
teachings. If you teach any child what the Father
teaches, he will never hesitate to learn from you.
Be it known to you that the expansion and
remarkable growth of this kingdom is connected to
the way children are treated in this kingdom. I do not
toy with them and they too, do not toy with me. One
brother once testified that whenever he does not
want his child to do a particular thing, he detests, he
will tell the child that if he attempts to do that again,
he will not take him (the child) to the Fathers
presence anymore. And with that, he said the child
will never do that thing no matter what happens. He
went on further to say that it is the child that forced
him to come to hall every time for he is always
worrying him to bring him (the child) to the Holy
Father's a presence.
Children know that the Father loves them and they
love Him too. They do not rejoice in any instruction
that is geared towards stopping them from having
physical assess to the Father. When I said that
people should not come to see the Father in the

vestry, they were not happy. They were sad and
looked awful.
I want you to start to condition your minds towards
treating the little ones with love and care, as is the
will of God for all men. Avoid doing anything to hurt
the little, ones.
If you hurt a child with the pretext of correcting him,
put yourself into fervent prayer. Whenever you beat
up a child, you have done same to Christ.
It is very easy to teach a child something provided
It is wrong and indeed a serious crime for a sinner or
somebody with evil tendency to go near a child for
anything sake. THIS IS SO BECAUSE THEY ARE LIKE
THE MIRROR, REFLECTING EXACTLY WHAT IS
PLACED BEFORE IT. THAT IS THE REASON WHY, IF
YOU HANG A VERY UGLY MASK OR PHOTOGRAPH
IN A ROOM WHERE A PREGNANT WOMAN CAN
ALWAYS SEE, WHEN EVENTUALLY SHE PUTS TO
BIRTH THE FACE OF BABY WILL LOOK MORE LIKE
THE MASK.
Whatever you do in the presence of a child, He is
bound to imitate and even do it more than you. They

learn from the elders and indiscriminately too.
Children are not selective when they are learning.
Fighting and quarrelling everyday with your wife or
husband in the same house where your children live
is extremely dangerous, because they will certainly
exhibit those wild traits the see in you and I be you,
they will do it even worse than you taught them.
WHATEVER YOU DO WITH YOUR WIFE OR HUSBAND
DURING PREGNANCY IS NOTED BY THE CHILD
INSIDE HER. DO NOT DOUBT THE BABY REPEATING
SAME AT BIRTH.
FOR THIS CAUSE MUST YOU LIVE PEACEABLY WITH
ALL MEN AND LIVE AN EXEMPLARY LIFE, WORTHY
OF EMULATION BY THE CHILDREN. WHEN THIS IS
DONE THE WORLD WILL CERTAINLY WITNESS A
REMARKABLE CHANGE.
PUT THIS SERMON TO TEST AND SEE THE
ACCOMPANYING BLESSING FROM IT. IF YOU
RECEIVE THE CHILDREN, YOU WILL SURELY BE
BLESSED AND ALL YOUR PROBLEMS, SOLVED.
CHILDREN ARE SPIRITUALLY VERY POWERFUL.
EVEN THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE VERY
POWERFUL. YOU MAY PRAY FOR DONKEY YEARS,
REQUESTING GOD TO GIVE YOU ONE THING OR THE
OTHER, OR THAT YOUR SICKNESS MAY GO, BUT
ALL TO NO AVAIL. SURPRISINGLY, YOU MAY ONE

DAY DISCOVER THAT YOUR SICKNESS IS GONE AS
A RESULT OF THE CHILDREN OF GOD PASSING BY
YOU AND YOU APPRECIATE THEM.
JUST LIKE CHRIST DID NOT TOY WITH THOSE
LITTLE CHILDREN, YOU TOO, SHOULD NOT TOY
WITH LITTLE CHILDREN. HAVE YOU SEEN ME
TOYING WITH THEM? I DO NOT. THIS IS WHAT
MAKES BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
UNIQUE.
THE CHILDREN ARE IN THE WORLD TO
REPRESENT THE TRUTH
The little children of this world are the greatest set of
people. The children of certain parents are commissioners,
governors and great people.
Sometime, their parents may not be high placed but the
children would occupy exalted positions. This is a veritable
truth that, anyone who, receives and embraces a little child,
has equally received and embraced God. Scolding, cursing
and beating of children, do not constitute the needed
lessons to children. Therefore, we should refrain from such
attitudes completely. If you indulge in such vices it means
you are encouraging them to indulge in evil. And by so doing,

you have waged war against God and you are bound to
encounter Series of problems.
The children are in the world to represent the truth. They are
truthful they teach the adults how to speak the truth, honor
God and to do what is desirable before God. Therefore, it is
incumbent on us to express the virtues of God in us to the
children because it is what we do, that they emulate. If the
little children are not ill-treated, scolded at and cursed,
where would they learn such from? Do you not know that, it
is what you demonstrate before them that they easily pick
up and grow with?
I do not focus my attention on the children you beget only
but also to the entire children in the world. This gospel has
to do with teaching Brotherhood by example. The moment
you receive and embrace the little children, you have
received Christ. The second lesson has advised that:
Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me,
but whoever causes one of them who believes in me to sin,
it would be better for him to have a millstone fastened round
his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
So when you see people attributing their plights to the work
of witches, ghosts, juju etc, you should not believe such
because problems are as a result of maltreatment to
children. Read the second lesson again.

UNIVERSAL LOVE FOR CHILDREN ALL OVER THE WORLD
*I do not focus my attention on the children you
beget only, but also to the entire children in the
world. This gospel has to do with teaching
Brotherhood by example. The moment you receive
and embrace the little children, you have received
Christ. The second lesson has advised that:
Whoever receives one such child in my name
receives me, but whoever causes one of them who
believes in me to sin, it would be better for him to
have a millstone fastened round his neck and to be

ILLUSTRATION:
There once lived a very wealthy king who had no
child. He tried everything within his capability to see
that his wife was pregnant and give birth to a child,
but all to no avail. He then took a challenge to the
whole world that whosoever shall cause his wife to
give birth to child will get a handsome reward from
him.
He even promised to make such a one a millionaire.
One day, the wife of the rich king (the queen) was
standing at the balcony of her storied building and as
she turned to look down, she saw a young man
parading the compound, she then called on him to

come up. The young man complied. On inquiry about
his background the man told the Queen that he had
four children, and had since been living in someone's
veranda but that the owner of the house has ordered
him out with his children. He went further to intimate
the queen that one of his sons came by an envelope
containing five pounds as they were roaming the
street in search of shelter, and that he is using the
five pounds to buy empty bottles and cans for resale
so that he might use the proceeds there from to feed
his family. On hearing this story, the queen was
moved with pity. She ordered that the stewards,
cooks gardeners and all those concerned with house
keeping in the kings compound should be supplying
the young man with empty bottles and similar
containers as a way of assisting the young man to
fend for his family.
After this, it was not long the young man returned to
the king's compound for containers. This second
time the queen gave him money and ordered that he
should go and bring his four children live in the king's
palace. And so when the young man finally brought
children, the queen went and narrated the story to
the king and solicited for maximum care for them.
She told the king that it is God that has given them
those children. She condemned the thousands of
pounds they had spent going to native doctors and
others in the name of looking for children. She then

decided to devote her whole time and fortune for the
training of those children. From then, the queen saw
herself as not having the need for her own children
anymore. Rather she claimed those children to be
hers forever.
The King also consented to this. The children had no
alternative but to become part and parcel of the
king's household. The last born of the four was still a
baby and the queen took the baby as her newborn
baby. This baby slept with the queen, soiled her bed
and yet, received the necessary care from the queen.
In spite of this, people started telling the queen that
they can help her give birth to her personal child, but
the queen was always shunning them. She made
them understand that she had no need for any other
child and that she has gotten the children she
needed. She stood her ground that nobody can
deceive her and dupe her in the name of helping her
to get pregnant anymore. She was contented and
happy with these four children and as such, had no
need for more.
As God would have it, the following month, she
discovered that she had missed her menstruation but
she did not take it for pregnancy. After a few
months, the family doctor was called in to examine
the queen. The doctor, having carried out a

comprehensive test, told the queen that she was
pregnant.
This report did not bother her at all instead, she saw
her state as sickness. A couple of months passed,
the situation remained the same. At the expiration of
nine months, she gave birth to a male child. This was
the time she became, convinced that she was truly
pregnant. And she counted her first child as the fifth
child she had. As the years passed by, she personally
gave birth to four children; two boys and two girls,
just as the ones she adopted. Even after giving birth
to four children, she did not alter the seniority rank.
The first of the adopted children remained the most
senior heir-of the family. The second, third, forth to
the last born from her womb remained the last. She
did not discriminate or treat any of the children with
concession. All the children enjoyed equal love from
the queen.
Note that only four children were collected from the
young man. He was given money to go and feed
himself and his wife. But when eventually things
turned out this way, the queen reminded the king of
the need for the young man and the wife to be
accommodated and cared for too. This was done.
Have you now realized the reward of receiving and
caring (or children? In spite of the fact that the king

was rich, was he able to get children with the aid of
his position in the society and money? No, He had
those children because he received other children
and cared for them.
I want you to note that the problems of the world
emanate from the worlds' neglect and indeed, out
right disregard for children.
If you practise this gospel, your life will definitely
change for the better. Try it.
The good luck, wealth, protection, influence and
power that you want are constituted herein. If you
love and receive the little children, all those and
many more good things will come to you. Read the
golden text again.

THESE ARE THE CHILDREN OF GOD, THE
CHRISTS OF GOD.
This gospel is not a simple one that one can
easily understand and practice, especially
when it comes to the question of proper care
for the children. Look at a situation where
mothers were taking their children to Our Lord
Jesus Christ for blessing, but His disciples
prevented them and ordered them to be taken
away. Unless you begin to change your
attitude towards children, things will never be
good in the world.
Here is an illustration: There is a huge tree
which needs to be cut down and you have an
old blunt axe as well as knives which are no
more useful. You are like these blunt
implements. When God sends these little
children, who are like sharp axes and knives,
capable of cutting down a tree, you reject
them and mistreat them. How foolish are you?

THE WORD OF GOD PREACHED TO YOU
ENABLE YOU TO KNOW HOW TO HANDLE
LITTLE CHILDREN, HOW TO NURTURE THEM
WHEN THEY ARE GROWING UP AND AT
DIFFERENT TIMES. IT IS ONLY WHEN YOU
KNOW THE WORD OF GOD YOU ARE ABLE TO
BRING UP YOUR CHILDREN IN THE FEAR AND
KNOWLEDGE OF GOD.
You say you want to serve God and that if you
were to see God that you would do everything
for Him, but, the little children sent to you are
the likeness of God, therefore whatever
services you would have rendered to God, if
you had seen Him, render to these children. If
you want to prostrate to God, prostrate to
these children. If you want this world to be
good, you have to develop good attitudes
towards the children and bring up children with
good attitudes. Do not curse them, but always
bless them, be simple, tolerant, loving and
show merciful and peaceful attitudes. Use

humility to lead them to the type of life God
wants them to live.
Do you realize that whatever you do to a child,
he will grow up with that upbringing? If you
beat, curse or torture him, he will apply the
same attitude and when he becomes a parent,
he will behave the same way you behaved
towards him. If we continue with such
attitudes, when do you think the world will be
reformed? Is it because you regard them as
defenseless and that no person would ask you
questions?
Most of the times, you abuse your children
because you feel they have not sufficiently
provided for you. What have you done yourself,
upon all the blessing of God for you? Are you
not ashamed of yourself when you cannot
provide for your children and you rather turn
around to ask the children to provide for you. It
is not the children who should provide for the
parents but the reverse should be the case.

Where would the children get these things
from in order to supply to the parents. If you
serve and provide, you will receive blessing
from God. These are the Children of God, the
Christs of God, they therefore need to be cared
for properly. From now on, do everything as if
you are doing unto God and this goes with
blessings.
The father of Abraham did not know that the
son he bore will be the father of many nations.
Was he himself the Father of many nations?
When the mother of Moses delivered Moses,
did she know that Moses would be the person
to deliver the Children of Israel from Egypt?
WHEN MARY DELIVERED JESUS, DID SHE
KNOW THAT JESUS WOULD BE THE CHRIST,
THE MESSIAH, AND THE SUPREME RULER OF
THE UNIVERSE?
I CANNOT ENUMERATE ALL THE GOOD
THINGS WHICH HAVE BEEN DONE BY MEN
BORN OF GOOD PARENTS. DO YOU REALIZE

THAT ANY GOOD THING YOU DO FOR THESE
CHILDREN, YOU DO SAME FOR GOD? We
should help the children, we should supply
their lack. The attention of the parents should
be focused on the nurturing of children, speak
good of them, care for them, provide for them,
whether you know them or not, whether black
or white. It is only in this way that you can be
blessed. Do not order them about, let them be
free to speak and do not hush them up. Do not
starve them and do not be difficult with them.
The whole world should stop maltreating
children.

Excerpt from: CHILDREN

CHILDREN ARE SENT TO DO WHAT YOU CANNOT DO
EVERY PERSON IS EQUAL
Most people do not also regard the children as
anything. Animals in the bush are regarded as
being better than them. I want somebody to
give me the reason the adults not have regard
for their children. Do you not see them with
two eyes and two legs and a human head as
you have? Do you know where that child
comes from? Your Father is his own Father and
you are all equal. Does it mean that when one
is a child, one is not a human being? Do you
know what he has come to do in this world? Do
you know whether the child is not greater than
you? Do you know whether his own knot is not
even bigger than yours? The child has a
specific assignment, to do the work of the
Father as you also have. What he is sent to do,
you cannot do, and what you are sent to do, he
cannot do. Therefore, what you have to do is to
co-operate; try to build and accomplish all that

you have lost. You must not regard him as
small child even if he is one month old.
Even the child in the womb knows what you do
not know because God who dwells in you also
dwells in him. Do you love or regard your child
as yourself? For these things I came to the
world so that there will be no difference
between "A" and "B" or "0" and "M", and to
remove the barrier between all men. If one is
missing, you cannot get a complete set. You
should not joke with whatever is called "MAN".
You are a man, that child is a man, and the
other person is also a man. We should not have
any disregard for any other human being. Do
not cause disintegration and division among
yourselves because if you do, you cannot stand
firm. If you continue to quarrel, fight and hurt
yourselves, you cannot stand. For regarding
the small child as a small person, you go and
buy a bowl of meat and eat it all without giving
any to him. When he goes out, he tells people

that his father is a bad man and that he has
eaten a bowl of meat without giving him. He
will decide that when he grows up, he would
buy his own meat and would not give it to him.
Do you know the reason why at any time you
send your child to go and buy something for
N1.00 he uses 50 Kobo to buy what you want
and the other 50 kobo for his meat, and will
come back to tell you that your article costs
N1.00?
Your child is more powerful than you. It is said:
"New broom sweeps well." It is a new axe that
cuts down a big tree. If you have a big tree to
cut down and you try to use an old blunt axe, it
will take longer time or days to cut. Why not
use a new one, which is sharp and can cut it
easily? Your child is the new sharp axe that
can cut down the tree. Why do you begin to
punish yourself and cause division between
yourselves? Try to tell children that you are all
equal.

CHILDREN, THE FOUNDATION OF THIS KINGDOM:
GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 19:13-15:
Then were there brought unto him little children, that
he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the
disciples rebuked them.
But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them
not, to Come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of
heaven. And he laid his hands on them, and departed
thence.
How else do you want to be told about the
importance of little children in the kingdom of God
and the blessings derivable from receiving and loving
them? Having read this statement of our Lord Jesus
Christ, in fact, His view on this issue, you have no
cause whatsoever to claim ignorance of the extent
to which children are rated in the kingdom of God.
Jesus the Christ spared nothing rebuking the

disciples for sending the little children away from his
presence, for He regarded them as the owners of the
kingdom of God.
The statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ, "...suffer
little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me;
for of such is the kingdom of heaven," demonstrated
practical brotherhood. He says the little children
should be received and loved and having said so, He
took them by their little hands and strolled with
them. Have you not seen this action in this kingdom
today? This accounts for the reason why
Brotherhood is often referred to as the church for the
little children. In this kingdom, we have no
alternative than to practise the words of Christ
hence, we value the little children and treat them
fine because they can do everything in this kingdom.
They can pray, sing read the bible, even conduct a
full service.
Most members of this kingdom were brought into
this kingdom by their children. Most of your
testimonies and in fact the most sensitive and
interesting ones are at the instance of your children.
They are the ones that know what this kingdom
stands for. Their joy and faith in this kingdom
surpasses that of the grownups in the fold. The
children are the ones that actually and truly rejoice
in Christ and Christ is always with them. Based on

this fact, you are at liberty to get whatever you want
from God provided you receive these little ones and
love them.
went further to say that it is the child that forced him
to come to hall every time for he is always worrying
him to bring him (the child) to the Holy Father's a
presence.
looked awful.

will of God for all men. Avoid doing anything to hurt
the little, ones.
If you hurt a child with the pretext of correcting him,
put yourself into fervent prayer. Whenever you beat
up a child, you have done same to Christ.
It is very easy to teach a child something provided
It is wrong and indeed a serious crime for a sinner or
somebody with evil tendency to go near a child for
anything sake. This is so because they are like the
mirror, reflecting exactly what is placed before it.
That is the reason why, if you hang a very ugly mask
or photograph in a room where a pregnant woman
can always see, when eventually she puts to birth
the face of baby will look more like the mask.
Whatever you do in the presence of a child, He is
bound to imitate and even do it more than you. They
learn from the elders and indiscriminately too.
Children are not selective when they are learning.
Fighting and quarrelling everyday with your wife or
husband in the same house where your children live
is extremely dangerous, because they will certainly
exhibit those wild traits the see in you and I be you,

they will do it even worse than you taught them.
Whatever you do with your wife or husband during
pregnancy is noted by the child inside her. Do not
doubt the baby repeating same at birth.
For this cause must you live peaceably with all men
and live an exemplary life, worthy of emulation by
the children. When this is done the world will
certainly witness a remarkable change.
Put this sermon to test and see the accompanying
blessing from it. If you receive the children, you will
surely be blessed and all your problems, solved.
Children are spiritually very powerful. Even the
children of God are very powerful. You may pray for
donkey years, requesting God to give you one thing
or the other, or that your sickness may go, but all to
no avail. Surprisingly, you may one day discover that
your sickness is gone as a result of the children of
God passing by you and you appreciate them.
Just like Christ did not toy with those little children,
you too, should not toy with little children. Have you
seen me toying with them? I do not. This is what
makes Brotherhood of the Cross and Star unique.
We need to give the young ones a chance to enjoy
equal rights.

Besides, depriving them of their God given right does
not avail us anything at all. For you to gain prosperity
it is necessary that you avoid depriving the children
of their rights.
You need to honour and respect them.
The gospel is a demonstration of what is meant by
leadership by example, as taught and practised by
Our Lord Jesus Christ. The act of depriving the young
ones, is what has constituted much problems to the
whole world.
The Father has brought this lesson today so that the
ignorance and problems faced by you might be
brought to an end. This is because it is this act of
depriving the young ones that also deprives us of the
glory of God.
It is for this reason that the Father finds it imperative
to reveal this secret to us.
Let those who have ears hear. May the Lord bless
His words for us. Amen.

THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL:
CHILDREN: THE LEADERS OF TOMORROW
FIRST LESSON: LUKE 9:47-48:
And Jesus perceiving the thought of their heart, took
a child, and set him by him,
And said unto them, whosoever shall receive this
child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall
receive me receiveth him that sent me for he that is
least among you all, the same shall be great.
SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 18:5-6:
And whose shall receive one such little child in my
name receiveth me.
But whosoever shall offend one of these little ones
which believes in me, it were better for him that a
mill stone were hanged about his neck, and that he
were drowned in the depth of the sea.

thence.
LOVE THE CHILDREN:
THIS GOSPEL SHOULD BE DISSEMINATED TO ALL
AND SUNDRY IN EVERY PART OF THE WORLD.
INFACT, THE GOSPEL IS GOING TO REVEAL TO YOU
WHAT REALLY CONSTITUTES THE DOWNFALL OF
MAN. EVERY SPIRIT AND ANGEL OF GOD CAN BE
FOUND TO BE PRESENT IN THIS KINGDOM. SO,
THERE IS GREAT JOY FOR THOSE WHO
BEHOLD THE HOLY SPIRIT PERSONIFIED.
TREAT CHILDREN WITH LOVE:
An adage has it that a good beginning makes for a
good end. It is also said that "charity begins from
home." Now, if we fail to embrace the children and
give them equal right how would things go well with
us? The salvation of the world is in the hands of the
little ones. The children today are the future leaders,
those to occupy all important positions in the world.
But if we fail to tolerate, love and lead them by
showing good examples to them, how then would
they, perform the role expected of them?

Have you now seen the cause of the suffering faced
by the world? This gospel is also directed to those
who are fond of speaking ills so as to correct them.
To the elderly people, they should equally read this
gospel to correct their false impression that they are
often being treated like children. Some would say,
"do not treat me like for a child for I am an adult."
When you take delight in punishing children and
treating them without respect, you should realize
that, you have, failed woefully. By so doing, what do
you think you have succeeded in doing? Do you want
them to copy your violent attitude?
Have you ever read and understood the three main
texts of this gospel? From any observation, you do
not deserve any work at all, in fact, you score zero
by maltreating children. You are easily provoked
whenever children do one particular thing or the
other. It is a thing of pity to see some parents
maltreating their very children, at the same time
they believe that such strict attitude is corrective to
enhance the proper growth of the child.
You may have read what Our Lord Jesus Christ said
with regards to our bad attitudes towards the
Children in our first bible lesson. The little children
deserve mercy and love from the adults regarding
the suffering they are subjected to, in the hands of

some adults. Really, your attitude towards the
children, leaves much to be desired.
Instead of providing them with leadership roles, you
instead give them bad training that tends to harden
them. They have been thought to be stubborn and
insulting. It is quite true that, the children are not
born into the world with stubbornness. Rather, it is
our attitude of punishing them, depriving them of
good and other right, that hardened them. It is the
cause of children's stubbornness and insult.
What do you think of their behavior in their youth
after being subjected to all forms of ill-treatments?
You do not know anything yet you claim to know so
much. Have you now seen the reason why the
children are placed in the most exalted position
here? Here in this kingdom, one could afford to toy
with any group of people but not the children. So,
they (children) need to be properly taken care of, for
they are those at the apex of this very kingdom.
When you do not avoid deprivation and maltreatment
of the little ones, you are indirectly maltreating Our
Lord Jesus Christ. But if you maltreat them, it means
inviting suffering and untold hardship to yourself.
This is the cause, of the suffering in the world. So
many, who have turned robbers today could be
traced to the family upbringing. Some were

subjected to harsh conditions. Some forget the rate
at which they prayed for just a single child but as
soon as their prayers are answered they start to
maltreat their offspring.
The question is, who has taught you such an
attitude? Some adults deny their involvement in
illicit affairs resulting in pregnancy of some
schoolgirls. Others go the extent of aborting the
pregnancy.
My concern is to draw your attention to the teaching
of Our Lord Jesus Christ with regards to a child's
upbringing. All along, you have been praying and
fasting, do you know that, if you receive the little
children, that you have equally received Christ?
Anyone, who is charitable to the little children, does
same to Christ. Such a person is saved and has his
ways made opened.
You claim to be a Christian while you still indulge in
scolding, shunning and treating the children with
disdain. What sort of Christianity do you profess?
Where have you learned such from? The question is,
do you know that, the little children you scold,
punish and shun are more powerful and
knowledgeable than you? Do you also know that they
posses more love, peace, humility and other
heavenly attitudes than you? If we were to know

that, the children are our saviors we should have
refrained from punishing them at random. And we
would have equally been free from suffering.
How can God save the world if mankind continues to
sin thereby exhibiting uncultured attitude to the
children. Our characters depict (show clearly) that
we are not interested in entering into the kingdom of
God and do not also wish that, the children should
enter. This is because, you have bluntly refused to
provide the children with good leadership role
expected of you. For instance, if a child is directed
by his father to inform a visitor that, he is out,
whereas he is in the house, but the child refuses to
lie, such a child would be beaten when the visitor
must have gone.
So, judging from this point of view, I am sure you
have now realized the extent to which you have
made the children to derail from the path of
rectitude. It is because of your attitude towards the
little children that you encounter many problems
that would have been averted. When we hate the
children, it means we are hating God and do not
regard or count Him for anything. It is recorded in
our old hymn book that: "You the little children give
me your heart, you the aged people, you are needing
me in life." This shows that, the aged have all died
away, remaining the children as such God has

nothing to do with them but the children. But today,
you have so decided to hate and look down on the
children.
BE KIND TO CHILDREN:
You would recall that, often I use vivid examples to
teach any lessons. Right from the inception of
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, I have always
been advising you not to drive, maltreat or hate the
children, rather you should always embrace them
and also be kind to them.
Once you receive the children and also rejoice with
them, you have also rejoiced with God. We should try
all our best to embrace and receive little children.
THE FUTURE OF THE WORLD:
The children are our future, saviour and leaders.
Read our first lesson again:
FIRST LESSON: LUKE 9:47-48:
And Jesus perceiving the thought of their heart, took
a child, and set him by him,
And said unto them, whosoever shall receive this
child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall
receive me receiveth him that sent me for he that is
least among you all, the same shall be great.

The little children of this world are the greatest set
of people. The children of certain parents are
commissioners, governors and great people.
Sometime, their parents may not be high placed but
the children would occupy exalted positions. This is
a veritable truth that, anyone who, receives and
embraces a little child, has equally received and
embraced God. Scolding, cursing and beating of
children, do not constitute the needed lessons for
children. Therefore, we should refrain from such
attitudes completely. If you indulge in such vices it
means you are encouraging them to indulge in evil.
And by so doing, you have waged war against God
and you are bound to encounter series of problems.
The children are in the world to represent the truth.
They are truthful they teach the adults how to speak
the truth, honor God and to do what is desirable
before God. Therefore, it is incumbent on us to
express the virtues of God in us to the children
because it is what we do, that they emulate. If the
little children are not ill-treated, scolded at and
cursed, where would they learn such from? Do you
not know that, it is what you demonstrate before
them that they easily pick up and grow with?

I do not focus my attention on the children you beget
only, but to the entire children in the world also. This
gospel has to do with teaching Brotherhood by
example. The moment you receive and embrace the
little children, you have received Christ. The second
lesson has advised that:
Whoever receives one such child in my name
receives me, but whoever causes one of them who
believes in me to sin, it would be better for him to
have a millstone fastened round his neck and to be
drowned in the depth of the sea.
So when you see people attributing their plights to
the work of witches, ghosts, juju etc, you should not
believe such because problems are as a result of
maltreatment to children. Read the second lesson
again.
SECOND LESSON: MATTHEW 18:5-6:
And whose shall receive one such little child in my
name receiveth me.
But whosoever shall offend one of these little ones
which believes in me, it were better for him that a
mill stone were hanged about his neck, and that he
were drowned in the depth of the sea.

CHILDREN THE HOPE OF MANKIND:
In the entire world, there is no one who would say
that he/she cares for children apart from the ones
he/she bears. And whoever cares, loves and receives
the little children, along with his/hers deserves God's
blessing.
The injunction which is contained in the second
lesson calls for a universal love for children all over
the world. Do not be harsh to little children rather
treat them fine, receive and care for them, for in so
doing you have received Christ. I want you to know
that if you do this with honesty, you will have your
ways opened and good things of life will be given to
you.
The little, children do not lie, steal, murder, bear
malice etc. They do not commit sin. And so if you
receive and love them, it invariably means that you
love Christ. Whosoever does not sin is Christ and so
any child who does not commit any sin is Christ.
I personally do not toy with the little children, I want
them first in everything here in the kingdom. This is
so, because they are the future leaders and above all
they are the kingdom of God. If you were to
understand the importance of the children of God in
this kingdom, you would not toy with them.

It is quite normal to use earthly things to illustrate
the heavenly ones; hence, this illustration.
ILLUSTRATION:
There once lived a very wealthy king who had no
child. He tried everything within his capability to see
that his wife was pregnant and give birth to a child,
but all to no avail. He then took a challenge to the
whole world that whosoever shall cause his wife to
give birth to child will get a handsome reward from
him.
He even promised to make such a one a millionaire.
One day, the wife of the rich king (the queen) was
standing at the balcony of her storied building and as
she turned to look down, she saw a young man
parading the compound, she then called on him to
come up. The young man complied. On inquiry about
his background the man told the Queen that he had
four children, and had since been living in someone's
veranda but that the owner of the house has ordered
him out with his children. He went further to intimate
the queen that one of his sons came by an envelope
containing five pounds as they were roaming the
street in search of shelter, and that he is using the
five pounds to buy empty bottles and cans for resale
so that he might use the proceeds there from to feed
his family. On hearing this story, the queen was

moved with pity. She ordered that the stewards,
cooks gardeners and all those concerned with house
keeping in the kings compound should be supplying
the young man with empty bottles and similar
containers as a way of assisting the young man to
fend for his family.
After this, it was not long the young man returned to
the king's compound for containers. This second
time the queen gave him money and ordered that he
should go and bring his four children live in the king's
palace. And so when the young man finally brought
children, the queen went and narrated the story to
the king and solicited for maximum care for them.
She told the king that it is God that has given them
those children. She condemned the thousands of
pounds they had spent going to native doctors and
others in the name of looking for children. She then
decided to devote her whole time and fortune for the
training of those children. From then, the queen saw
herself as not having the need for her own children
anymore. Rather she claimed those children to be
hers forever.
The King also consented to this. The children had no
alternative but to become part and parcel of the
king's household. The last born of the four was still a
baby and the queen took the baby as her newborn
baby. This baby slept with the queen, soiled her bed

and yet, received the necessary care from the queen.
In spite of this, people started telling the queen that
they can help her give birth to her personal child, but
the queen was always shunning them. She made
them understand that she had no need for any other
child and that she has gotten the children she
needed. She stood her ground that nobody can
deceive her and dupe her in the name of helping her
to get pregnant anymore. She was contented and
happy with these four children and as such, had no
need for more.
As God would have it, the following month, she
discovered that she had missed her menstruation but
she did not take it for pregnancy. After a few
months, the family doctor was called in to examine
the queen. The doctor, having carried out a
comprehensive test, told the queen that she was
pregnant.
This report did not bother her at all instead, she saw
her state as sickness. A couple of months passed,
the situation remained the same. At the expiration of
nine months, she gave birth to a male child. This was
the time she became, convinced that she was truly
pregnant. And she counted her first child as the fifth
child she had. As the years passed by, she personally
gave birth to four children; two boys and two girls,

just as the ones she adopted. Even after giving birth
to four children, she did not alter the seniority rank.
The first of the adopted children remained the most
senior heir-of the family. The second, third, forth to
the last born from her womb remained the last. She
did not discriminate or treat any of the children with
concession. All the children enjoyed equal love from
the queen.
Note that only four children were collected from the
young man. He was given money to go and feed
himself and his wife. But when eventually things
turned out this way, the queen reminded the king of
the need for the young man and the wife to be
accommodated and cared for too. This was done.
Have you now realized the reward of receiving and
caring (or children? In spite of the fact that the king
was rich, was he able to get children with the aid of
his position in the society and money? No, He had
those children because he received other children
and cared for them.
I want you to note that the problems of the world
emanate from the worlds' neglect and indeed, out
right disregard for children.
If you practise this gospel, your life will definitely
change for the better. Try it.

The good luck, wealth, protection, influence and
power that you want are constituted herein. If you
love and receive the little children, all those and
many more good things will come to you,
Read the golden text again.
thence.
How else do you want to be told about the
importance of little children in the kingdom of God
and the blessings derivable from receiving and loving
them? Having read this statement of our Lord Jesus
Christ, in fact, His view on this issue, you have no
cause whatsoever to claim ignorance of the extent
to which children are rated in the kingdom of God.
Jesus the Christ spared nothing rebuking the
disciples for sending the little children away from his

presence, for He regarded them as the owners of the
kingdom of God.
The statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ, "...suffer
little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me;
for of such is the kingdom of heaven," demonstrated
practical brotherhood. He says the little children
should be received and loved and having said so, He
took them by their little hands and strolled with
them. Have you not seen this action in this kingdom
today? This accounts for the reason why
Brotherhood is often referred to as the church for the
little children. In this kingdom, we have no
alternative than to practice the words of Christ
hence, we value the little children and treat them
fine because they can do everything in this kingdom.
They can pray, sing read the bible, even conduct a
full service.
Most members of this kingdom were brought into
this kingdom by their children. Most of your
testimonies and in fact the most sensitive and
interesting ones are at the instance of your children.
They are the ones that know what this kingdom
stands for. Their joy and faith in this kingdom
surpasses that of the grownups in the fold. The
children are the ones that actually and truly rejoice
in Christ and Christ is always with them. Based on
this fact, you are at liberty to get whatever you want

from God provided you receive these little ones and
love them.
went further to say that it is the child that forced him
to come to hall every time for he is always worrying
him to bring him (the child) to the Holy Father's a
presence.
