HOLY THURSDAY
THE ADVENT OF TRUTH:
Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king
then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am
a king. To this end was I born, and for this
cause came I into the world, that I should
bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is
of the truth heareth my voice. Joh 18:37
Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when
he had said this, he went out again unto the
Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no
fault at all. John 18:38
But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at
the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the
King of the Jews? Joh 18:39
Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but
Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber. Joh 18:40
2. GOD HATH MADE THAT SAME JESUS, WHOM YE HAVE
CRUCIFIED, BOTH LORD AND CHRIST.
Act 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know
assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye
have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Act 2:37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in
their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the
apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
Act 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be
baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy
Ghost.
Act 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children,
and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God
shall call.

Psa 68:31 Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall
soon stretch out her hands unto God.

praises unto the Lord; Selah:
3. THE ADVENT OF TRUTH:
BELOVED, THERE WAS NO IOTA OF TRUTH IN THE WORLD
UNTIL THE ADVENT OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. All the
Patriarchs in the Old Testament like Moses, Enoch,
Melchizedec, etc. whom people praise, did nothing. The
entire world was like a peninsular and none was sure of
getting any mineral reserves from it. But as it was gradually
explored, suddenly, the mineral reserve was discovered. SO
ALSO WAS THE WORLD IN DARKNESS UNTIL OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST MANIFESTED. IT WAS ONLY AT THE TIME OF
CHRIST THAT THE TRUTH EMBEDDED IN THE SCRIPTURES
STARTED MANIFESTING. ONE ARMY OFFICER TESTIFIED
THAT AFTER THE HOLY FATHER HAD BAPTIZED HIM, THE
FATHER ENJOINED HIM NEVER TO BE WORRIED OVER
ANYTHING, AND THAT WHENEVER HE HAD A PROBLEM HE
SHOULD NOT TROUBLE HIMSELF ABOUT COMING TO 34
AMBO, RATHER HE SHOULD GO ON HIS KNEES AND PRAY
TO THE FATHER AND ALL WILL BE WELL. HE WAS ASSURED
OF THE OMNIPRESENCE OF THE FATHER. SINCE HIS
BAPTISM MANY YEARS AGO, THE FATHER’S
PRONOUNCEMENT OF HIS OMNIPRESENT NATURE HAS
BEEN THE BROTHER’S WATCH WORD. THUS HE HAS MADE
IT A POINT OF DUTY TO GO ON HIS KNEES ANYTIME HE
HAS PROBLEMS, AND HE HAS BEEN HAVING POSITIVE
RESULTS.
I marvel at the situation where you come in here, and keep
receiving His teachings daily, yet you engage in sin, what is
4. your stance? Having seen this truth, why do you still indulge
in sin? It profits you nothing, rather it leads you astray. The
scripture at Malachi 4:1-end is a typical text of the Old
Testament. This explains why in this fold we do not rely on
the Old Testament. Refer to Luke 1:7-end.
THE FATHER HAS A SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT:
The prophets of old times were ignorant of the truth
because there was none to enlighten them of the truth. BUT
ON THE ADVENT OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE WHOLE
WORLD BECAME ENLIGHTENED. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
PROVED HIS IDENTITY AS THE SON OF MAN AND
PROPHESIED OF HIS DEATH. HE ALSO PROMISED TO COME
BACK AND TAKE US AFTER PREPARING A PLACE FOR US IN
HEAVEN SO THAT WHERE HE IS THERE ALSO MAY WE BE
WITH HIM THEREFORE ON HIS SECOND ADVENT, SHOULD
HE BE TEACHING, BUILDING MANSIONS, OR SETTLING
DISPUTES BETWEEN COUPLES? HE IS COMING FOR THOSE
WHO HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR HIM AND HE IS READY TO
ADORN THEM WITH THE GLORY OF THIS NEW KINGDOM.
THUS THERE SHALL BE NO MORE AFFLICTIONS.
You have heard that a total number of one hundred and
forty-four thousand shall dwell with God and serve Him day
and night. But when you come here you start complaining of
aches and pains and request that the Father should make
pronouncement over your needs like husbands, children, etc.
But this is never the nature of the work the Father has come
to do. Many request for promotion and other forms of carnal
5. request and materialism. The question is why do you need
these things? Do you know that those who have acquired
them already do not find any of these things beneficial?
When you still seek to procreate children, what importance
is attached to the ones you already have? You must reason
steadfastly, for this is never a time for ignorance and such
acts associated with it. This is the time that is destined for
the children of God to see and enjoy God’s glory.

FALSE DOCTRINES: I WILL NOT ALLOW ANY FALSE
DOCTRINE TO BE SPREAD AGAIN IN THE WORLD
HOLY THURSDAY: *I WILL NOT ALLOW ANY FALSE
DOCTRINE TO BE SPREAD AGAIN IN THE WORLD, AND IT IS
AGAINST THIS BACKGROUND THAT I AM ADVOCATING
THAT NOTHING SHOULD BE ADDED OR SUBTRACTED AT
ALL IN THIS CASE.
*THAT IS WHY THIS GOSPEL MUST BE DOCUMENTED FOR
THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND THE SALVATION OF MANKIND.
THEIR DELIBERATE ATTEMPT TO FALSIFY A GENUINE
TRUTH AND TO THROW DUST INTO THE EYES OF THE
ENTIRE WORLD MUST BE EXPOSED. WE WILL CONTINUE TO
EXPOSE THE TRUTH UNTIL SATAN AND HIS AGENTS
VACATE THEIR THRONE.
6. * DID OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST NOT SAY, "EVERY PLANT
WHICH MY HEAVENLY FATHER HATH NOT PLANTED SHALL
BE ROOTED UP?" (MATTHEW 15:13). THAT IS WHY ALL
FALSE AND MISLEADING OBSERVANCES ABOUT HIS DEATH
AND OTHER ISSUES MUST BE CRUSHED.
Second Bible Lesson: John 2:19
"And Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this
temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
THE TRUTH HAS COME:
Brethren, have you heard that text? The Bible says "In the
mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word of truth be
established." (2 Corinthians 13:1). The second lesson
confirms the three days and three nights death bid and its
unique essence. He said, "Destroy this temple, and I will
build it after three days." It also serves as a releasing factor,
setting free those who were in spiritual as well as mental
bondage. Those who were condemned have been freed, and
those who were sick in the hospitals are now permanently
healed.
It is said, "He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own
glory, but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same
is true, and no unrighteousness is in him." (John
7:18). Those servants who speak and seek for their glory,
there is not even an iota of truth in them. They are fraught
with falsehood.
7. I want the conventional churches to prove their case with
regards to the timing and calculation of the number of days
Our Lord Jesus the Christ was in the heart of the earth. WE
IN BROTHERHOOD HAVE PROVED OUR CASE
MATHEMATICALLY, WITH BIBLICAL SUPPORT. The orthodox
churches claim that theirs was on Friday. God had allowed
them to falsify the event for so long until they prove
themselves wrong. The Spirit of Truth has come to unfold all
things for the salvation of mankind.
SOME PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT IT DOES NOT MATTER. TO
ASSUME SUCH A POSITION IS WRONG. THIS IS A UNIQUE
AND IMPORTANT MATTER WHICH BOARDERS ON THE
FOUNDATION OF HUMANITY, SO IT IS WRONG TO TREAT
THE MATTER SO LIGHTLY. Their calculation from Friday will
land them on two days and two nights during which time Our
Lord Jesus Christ would still have been in the heart of the
earth. This is wrong and we cannot compromise or condone
this satanic and misleading assumption.
THAT IS WHY THIS GOSPEL MUST BE DOCUMENTED FOR
THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND THE SALVATION OF MANKIND.
THEIR DELIBERATE ATTEMPT TO FALSIFY A GENUINE
TRUTH AND TO THROW DUST INTO THE EYES OF THE
ENTIRE WORLD MUST BE EXPOSED. WE WILL CONTINUE TO
EXPOSE THE TRUTH UNTIL SATAN AND HIS AGENTS
VACATE THEIR THRONE.
A member, through false vision, told a brother to reject his
real wife (sister) with children and to take a new wife,
8. claiming that the Father ordered him to give such a vision.
But the poser is: why should the Father do a thing like that?
WHICH FATHER IN THE FIRST PLACE? SUCH A THING IS
OUTRAGEOUS AND QUESTIONABLE. It is equally blackmail
and blasphemy. I AM OPPOSED TO ANY FALSEHOOD IN THE
WORLD, INCLUDING THE JESUS CHRIST'S DEATH SAGA.
The calculation is misleading. The case of His birth, which
has been fixed for convenience, could be tolerable, but for
His death, upon which the salvation of the generality of
mankind depends, nobody should toy or falsify it on any
account.
I WILL NOT ALLOW ANY FALSE DOCTRINE TO BE SPREAD
AGAIN IN THE WORLD, AND IT IS AGAINST THIS
BACKGROUND THAT I AM ADVOCATING THAT NOTHING
SHOULD BE ADDED OR SUBTRACTED AT ALL IN THIS CASE.
It is said that if a tree does not fall, the axe shall not rest.
Right now a greater number of the conventional churches
have begun to adopt the Brotherhood mode of worship. This
is indeed welcome news. Man or Satan is prone to sin,
falsehood, and blunders. But God is truthful and all his
actions are true and just. This should help us to realize that
sooner or later His words must be fulfilled.
DID OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST NOT SAY, "EVERY PLANT
WHICH MY HEAVENLY FATHER HATH NOT PLANTED SHALL
BE ROOTED UP?" (MATTHEW 15:13). THAT IS WHY ALL
FALSE AND MISLEADING OBSERVANCES ABOUT HIS DEATH
AND OTHER ISSUES MUST BE CRUSHED.
9. His death and resurrection form the foundation which must
be celebrated with pomp and joy. His death has been the
last covenanted arrangement, and that was why He said, " It
is finished, " (John 19:30) as He allowed His precious blood
to be spilled for atonement of the sins of men. This supreme
sacrifice has superseded other sacrifices of goats, sheep or
rams, and has wiped away all sinfulness. To this end,
nobody has the right to impute sin on other people. The sins
of Adam had condemned the entire human race to death, but
his unique and supreme sacrifice has come to redeem
humanity from the bondage and the clutches of Satan.
THEREFORE IF ANY PASTOR SAYS HE SUFFERS FOR
ANYONE'S SAKE, HE IS A BLATANT LIAR. IT IS OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST WHO HAD REALLY SUFFERED FOR ALL
MANKIND. IT IS SAID THAT THE TESTIMONIES FROM TWO
OR THREE PEOPLE CONFIRM THE TRUTH. Brethren let our
golden text be read.

BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAREXCERPT FROM : MATHEMATICS OF
GOOD FRIDAY
10. EVERLASTING GOSPEL
THE DEATH OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
UNITES THE WORLD
First Bible Lesson: Matthew 27:24-26
"When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that
rather a tumult was made, he took water and washed his
hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the
blood of this just person: see ye to it. Then answered all the
people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had
scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified."
Second Bible Lesson: Mark 15:24-25
"And when they had crucified him, they parted his garment,
casting lots upon them, what every man should take. And it
was the third hour, and they crucified him."
Golden Text: Luke 23:50-53
"And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor;
and he was a good man, and a just: (The same had not
consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of
Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for
the Kingdom of God. This man went unto Pilate, and begged
the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in
linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone,
wherein never man before was laid."
11. Brethren, the texts summarize the theme of our revelation.
We can preach a verse of each of the texts for twenty years
because each passage contains its peculiar teachings and
revelations. However, we will not spend our time in detailed
explanation. We are doing a little sketch, summarizing
everything in a nutshell. Other occasions will provide the
opportunity for detailed explanation.
This gospel is premised on the fact that it was on Thursday,
at 6 a.m. that our Lord Jesus Christ was condemned to
death. At 6 a.m. on Thursday, Pilate condemned him to
death, and at 9 a.m. he was crucified. The scripture reveals
how Pilate himself tried to set Him free. He kept four
hundred soldiers on guard to quell any riot, should he
release the Christ. Since it was the will of God, the Jews
mounted great pressure on Pilate and kept shouting that Our
Lord Jesus Christ should be crucified. In order to forestall
any possible riot, Pilate scourged and delivered the Lord
Jesus to them to sacrifice. In response to what Pilate said
to disassociate himself from their desire to crucify Him, the
Jews shouted that His blood should be upon them, and upon
their children, and their children's children. Go today and
see the pathetic state of Israel. When you argue that you
want to do what the Israelites did, go and see their
condition today. THE RULER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH WAS
BORN TO LEAD AND RULE OVER THEM, BUT THEY
REJECTED AND KILLED HIM. Until doomsday such an
opportunity will never offer itself to them again. Their
repentance today means nothing because they had
pronounced that his blood should be upon them and upon
their children and upon their children's children. This should
12. be a great lesson for you and me and all the inhabitants of
the world.
Israel was the nation that God loved above all other nations.
The Bible was written by them. Abraham was of that stock.
They were the chosen people of God. But what is the
position of Israel now? This will show you that "though hand
be joined together in prayer the wicked shall not go
unpunished" (Prov 11:21). If we were to be wise, we would
have learnt a great lesson from what had happened to the
Israelites. If you come across a man of God, leave Him
alone, no matter what he has done. Leave everyman to his
way because you do not know what that person is. It does
not pay any person to commit any evil or ever think of it.
Because whatever you sow the same you will reap. (Gal 6:7).
In his judgement, Pilate admitted he found no fault in Him.
(Luke 23:14). Have you ever seen a governor who finds no
guilt or fault in someone and yet condemns the person? It
was because he was seeking for the glory of the world. He
wanted to release Him but they told him that if he released
Him, he would not be a friend to Caesar. For that reason, he
was afraid. Think of a situation where someone is brought
before the court and he is not found guilty. On what grounds
will he be convicted by the court? The quest for the things of
the world carries the people of the world into destruction.
Pilate's wife went by herself and told her husband that her
soul had suffered terribly that night because of that man.
She warned Pilate to have nothing to do with His death.
When Judas Iscariot saw that Christ was condemned, he
took the thirty pieces of silver and threw it at them, saying
that he had betrayed an innocent Blood. (Matt 27:4). That
was another testimony to Christ's innocence.
13. Pilate himself, who was the governor, admitted that he saw
no evil in Him. WHO IS THE PERSON IN WHOM NO FAULT IS
FOUND EXCEPT GOD? THINK OF ANY PERSON IN THE
WORLD, IN WHOM NO FAULT IS FOUND? OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST HAD NO FAULT, AND PILATE CONFIRMED THIS.
Why then was he crucified? He died for your sake and mine;
for the sake of all the inhabitants of the world. His death
was to redeem all the inhabitants of the world from their
sins. The question is: has man realized his position? If we
were to understand what he has done for us, there would be
no person in the world who would not rejoice today. SINCE
HE IS OUR CREATOR, HE CAME AND SHED HIS BLOOD TO
TAKE AWAY OUR SINS. HE IS THE ONE WHO WILL CHANGE
US UNTO HIMSELF.
This gospel is meant to strengthen your faith so that when
people make a statute of the crucifixion and tell you that
that is the Lord Jesus, you know what to say. By their
action, they still assert that Our Lord Jesus Christ is still
hanging on the cross. But he did not hang on the cross for
more than nine hours. To portray that Our Lord Jesus Christ
is still on the cross is a source of confusion for so many
people. If you tell people that he is on the cross, those with
weak minds will question the rationale behind following
someone who is perpetually on the cross. THE DEATH
CONTRACT WAS FOR SEVENTY-TWO HOURS ONLY.
FOREVER AND EVER SUCH A CONTRACT WILL NEVER BE
SIGNED AGAIN.
14. This gospel will concentrate on the time he was condemned,
and when he was taken into the grave. It will convince you
that he was really killed. Having been convinced of his
death, you will also understand what is meant by his
resurrection. Moreso, you should note with this that God is
able to do everything and thus allay your fears about death.
You are advised not to fear death, because as Our Lord
Jesus Christ demonstrated that there is no death. The
promise of conquering death is not for Him alone, but for you
and me and for all creations throughout eternity who believe
in Him. He came to reveal his power and glory, that He is the
I AM THAT I AM. It is not meant to instill fear into someone
to serve God. It does not call for indecision. I HAVE ALWAYS
TOLD YOU THAT IF YOU DO NOT PREACH ABOUT OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST, YOU HAVE NOT PREACHED THE WORD OF
GOD.
The word of God is Our Lord Jesus Christ. When you talk
about other things, besides Him, you are talking carnally and
your words are vain. We shall explain each of these tests at
other times and emphasize what they stand for. The lesson
today shows us that we have boldness because He has
taken away from us death, tribulation, sorrows and all kinds
of weaknesses on one hand. On the other hand, the doubts
we have been entertaining about God are cleared. It
provides us a golden opportunity to rejoice fully in Him. Take
the action of Joseph of Arimathea as an example. Did any of
the twelve disciples do what he did? When you argue that
you are the only Brotherhood in your family, how do you
know that you are the only one?
15. Every person has his specific work and service to God.
Joseph of Arimathea had nothing to do with the decision of
the Council to crucify our Lord Jesus Christ. The decision
was taken by a handful of persons. It is common to find that
a few disgruntled persons would take a decision in the name
of the whole village. Joseph of Arimathea was not among
them and he knew nothing about their evil plans. I want you
to think about a person like Joseph of Arimathea who took
that course of action. How do you regard him? He was not
associated with Our Lord Jesus Christ physically during
such a critical time, yet he went straight to Pilate and asked
for his body and Pilate gave it to him. Where have you ever
seen such a man? Do you not realize that this was planned
by God? Joseph of Arimathea laid Him in a sepulchre
prepared for himself, where no one had ever before been
laid. Who made such arrangements except God Himself?
It is good for us to preach the life of our Lord Jesus Christ
from His birth. This will give you joy, consolation, faith and
boldness. This will brighten your eyes to see more and more
that there is God. Right before his coming up till the time he
finally did, all that was written about him were words of
God. As I had already told you, from Genesis to Revelation
contain His story alone. If you have the Bible, believe in its
message. If you do not believe in the writings of the Bible
that is entirely your problem. All that happened, including
the action of Joseph of Arimathea are written in the Bible.
His sufferings, death and resurrection were all prophesied in
the scriptures. These events occurred so that your faith may
be strenghtened; that you may know that God exists. THERE
HAS NEVER BEEN A TIME WHEN GOD WAS NOT WITH HIS
CHILDREN. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A TIME WHEN GOD
16. FORSOOK HIS CHILDREN. God does not save you because
you serve Him or because you love Him. He does everything
just to manifest His own glory.
It was on Thursday 3 p.m. that Our Lord Jesus Christ
gave up the ghost. You are aware that if He did not give up
the ghost, He would not have been taken to the sepulcher. If
He did not die, the soldier would have broken his legs. If He
did not die, He would not have resurrected on the third day.
He has told us that "unless a grain of corn falls to the ground
and dies, it remains alone: but when it dies, it brings forth
much fruit." (John 12:24). It should have been a great
surprise for our Creator to die and remain in the grave
forever. On the third day God caused Him to resurrect. If you
were to believe in Him, would you not also believe that there
is no death for you? For this reason, he died and now lives,
that all those who believe in Him should not perish but have
everlasting life. (John 3:16). Our first lesson will now be
read.
First Bible Lesson: Matthew 27:24-26
"When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that
rather a tumult was made, he took water and washed his
hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the
blood of this just person: see ye to it. Then answered all the
people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had
scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified."
Do not forget that the Jews' feast of the Passover was
coming up. Is it on Thursday that the Passover was kept? I
have already told you that they had agreed that He should
17. not be arrested on the feast day so that there may not be a
tumult. That was why they arrested Him at 3:00 a.m. on
Thursday. At 6:00 a.m. on that Thursday, he was
condemned. At 9:00 a.m. He was crucified. If the event took
place on the Sabbath, was Friday the Sabbath day? WE ARE
FEEDING YOU WITH THIS KNOWLEDGE SO THAT THE
THOMASES WHO WERE LED ASTRAY IN THEIR BELIEF MAY
KNOW THAT WE ARE OBSERVING THE EVENTS AS THEY
HAPPENED. It explains why we fast from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m. on Thursday to commemorate his death. Since he had
mentioned three days and three nights, Pilate condemned
Him at 6:00 a.m. on Thursday and from that time, He was
regarded as a dead man. At 9:00 a.m. he was crucified. At
12:00 noon he was still on the cross. At 3:00 p.m. he
committed His Spirit into the Father's hands and fainted. At
exactly 6:00 p.m. Joseph took down his body, and took it to
the grave.
That is why we always commemorate the crucifixion every
Thursday by fasting from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. We hold the
Bible Class every Wednesday. After the Bible Class we
conduct Watch and pray until 3:00 a.m. when he was
arrested; after which we eat the Last Supper at that time we
can disperse.
What was done to the Israelites will be done to the Gentiles.
This is the time of the Gentiles and what was done to the
Israelites must also be done to them. It is not surprising that
Isaac had two children, and when Rebecca did not yet
conceive, the word of prophecy came that the elder shall
serve the younger. (Gen 25:23). Rebecca conceived two
nations in her womb. Since it was written that the elder
18. should serve the younger, that is why it is said that it is not
of him who wills nor of him who runs the race but of God
who shows mercy. (Roman 9:16). That is why I tell you that
you should not make any comment over what you see
because everything is wrought by the fingers of God. People
argue that Jacob used tricks to usurp the position of Esau;
that is not true.
If you are hated, it is an act of God. It is also an act of
God, if someone loves you. When the children had done
neither good nor evil, and were not yet born, it was written
that the elder shall serve the younger. Jacob I loved but
Esau I hated. (Rom 9:13). This is so that the will of God may
be fulfilled. Esau did not know why he struggled to come out
first of his mother's womb. You can see how the blacks push
and force their way in anything they want to do. But the
whites are calm and calculating in their ways.
This is attributable to one's nature. You cannot depart from
the nature that God has given to you. Since it was written
that the elder shall serve the younger, (Genesis 25:23). That
was why things occurred the way they did. Since God is
impartial and omnipotent, Jacob received the blessing.
Isaac became blind in order that the will of God may be
fulfilled. When it was time for the blessing, everybody knew
that Esau was the first born, and that he should inherit the
blessing. He was hard-working and obedient to his father.
The mother loved Jacob. Jacob was like a daughter to her,
and he served her. But the father loved Esau because he
was his first-born, and he also ministered to him in the
19. house. If Isaac had his sight, nothing would have induced
him to bless Jacob.
God caused Isaac to be blind and he blessed Jacob in order
that the will of God may be made manifest. IT WILL NOT BE
SURPRISING IF ESAU ASSUMES HIS RIGHTFUL PLACE
TODAY; HE HAD FOR LONG ACCOMPLISHED HIS WORK, AND
HE IS ENTITLED TO HIS REWARD. ESAU HAS NO
PROBLEMS.
WHATEVER YOU HAVE BELONGS TO YOU. DO NOT BE
SURPRISED IF YOU DO NOT FIND MANY WHITES IN THIS
KINGDOM. NO ONE IS RESPONSIBLE. IT IS THE FATHER
DOING HIS WORK. IF YOU PREACH TO THE WHITES AND
THEY LISTEN TO YOU WITH RAPT ATTENTION, IT IS NOT
DONE BY YOU NEITHER ARE THEY RESPONSIBLE. IT IS
WHAT HAS BEEN WRITTEN DOWN. ESAU IS THE
FIRSTBORN.
Do not compel any white man to come here. Allow him to his
own will because before the foundations of the world were
laid, God had already arranged everything in its shipshape
order.
As you have already been told, you have to clear the bush,
and He will set fire to it. God does not cheat anyone. What
you sow is what you reap. (Gal 6:7) AND WHATEVER GOD
PLANTS HAS TO STAND. AFTER BLESSING JACOB, ESAU
LATER APPEARED, AND ISAAC TOLD HIM THAT THERE WAS
NO OTHER BLESSING. ESAU WAS THE RIGHTFUL OWNER
OF THE POSITION. But because of the prediction that the
elder shall serve the younger, that vision had to be allowed
20. to fulfill itself. After its fulfillment, it was put aside. As you
have been told, visions will pass away. After each vision has
been fulfilled it has to pass away for what was instituted
from the beginning to be made manifest. The whites know
that the black man is the firstborn. They have no doubts
over this as you do. You complain that you have neither
money nor wisdom. Is this a matter of money? What wisdom
did Jacob possess? Did any work qualify him for the
blessings? It was Esau who laboured while Jacob ate gratis.
That is exactly the situation now. ETHIOPIA SHALL RISE.
If somebody had told you that in this world, a black man will
pick up the Bible, travel to the white man's country, and
preach to him, nobody would have believed. Today, they are
looking for you. When you go there, they ask for your
permission to touch your garment. They are weeping and
searching for you. They are not responsible neither are you
responsible. They are the fingers of God, as this is the
appointed time. Whenever the time appointed for a
particular thing is ripe, it must be manifested. You can see
that man can of himself do nothing. In the end Isaac prayed
that God should remember Esau. He said to Esau, "by the
sword shalt thou live, and shall serve thy brother, and it
shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that
thou shalt break his yoke from thy neck". (Genesis 27:40).
Right now Esau has broken Jacob's yoke from his neck.
THIS IS WHY ALL THE BLACK SHOULD SHOUT OUT FOR
JOY.
It is not a question of he has healed my sickness or given
me money. THIS IS THE GLORY OF GOD WHICH HAS COME
TO AFRICA AND TO THE ENTIRE WORLD. THIS IS THE
21. FULLNESS OF TIME AND YOU WILL NOTICE THE JOY ALL
OVER THE WORLD. PEACE WILL FLOW AND ABOUND
BECAUSE THE BLACK MAN HAS A DIFFERENT LIFESTYLE.
Whoever argues that God does not love the blacks should
pray for himself because he has not read the scriptures.
Abraham begot Isaac. Isaac begot Esau and Jacob. Rebecca
gave birth to twins, who represented the blacks and the
whites. If everything had worked according to our
expectations, the whole world would have been one. If the
first had taken his position, there would be no problem in
this world.
The saying that the first shall be last and the last shall be
first, and also that he who laughs last laughs best, has been
fulfilled with the blacks. The Father has given us the
boldness to do this work. He has strengthened us. He is the
one who does everything. We have to go to the white man's
land and to every part of the world and preach the good
news of this kingdom. The Father is before and behind us.
This is the work that lies before us. The ability does not
reside with man. Whether you like it or not, you will find
yourself where you least expected, and you will work until
every person sees and believes. There will be no division
between the Jews and the Greeks, there will be no wars,
quarrelling and problems again.
Let the second lesson be read so that you may realize that
Christ died for the whole world in order that there may be no
division. He had accomplished everything when He said, "It
is finished." (John 19:30). He has rearranged everything in
22. the world. His garment was divided according to the four
corners of the world and so everything has been brought
together.
Second Bible Lesson: Mark 15:24-25
"And when they had crucified Him, they parted his garments,
casting lots upon them, what every man should take. And it
was the third hour, and they crucified Him."
IF THE SITUATION WAS NOT THE FULFILLMENT OF
PROPHECY HAVE YOU GUNS, OR MONEY, OR WISDOM TO
HAVE ATTAINED A REPUBLICAN STATUS OF YOUR OWN?
THAT IS WHAT THE DEATH OF CHRIST ACCOMPLISHED FOR
US. RIGHT NOW YOU ARE FREE. EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE
NO MONEY, YOU HAVE THE FATHER.
In 1940, and up till 1950, you were slaves to colonialists. All
the land was Crown Land. You had no say whatever in the
running of the government. You remember that when Dr.
Nnamdi Azikiwe said that Nigeria, and the whole of Africa,
should fight for their independence, people argued that we
were not ripe for self-government.
Today, we have attained a Republic of our own. South Africa
is on its way to liberation. If you were a slave, your master
would not allow you to do anything. THE WISDOM
POSSESSED BY ONE BLACK MAN CANNOT BE COMPARED
WITH THAT OF TWENTY WHITE MAN. GOD HAS MADE THE
BLACK MAN SUPERIOR IN WISDOM, POWER AND
INTELLIGENCE. YOU WILL WITNESS WHAT THE BLACK MAN
WILL ACCOMPLISH.
23. A certain white man from Canada came to 34 Ambo Street,
Calabar and asked me if I will accept Him if He practices
some of the gospels of God. Another white man came and
told me that they do not practice all the words of God. They
only select those they practice. They do not want anything
that will disturb them. But the blacks are trying to practice
all the words of God. Even in university, a white man
specializes in only one subject. If he specializes in history
he holds on to that until his graduation. But the black man is
made to take all the subjects, yet he passes them all. We
have people here who have been to Europe. If somebody
tells you that the whites have wisdom or money, that is not
true. WHAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST HAS DONE FOR US IS
THAT THE WHOLE WORLD MAY BE UNITED. IF WE ARE ALL
UNITED THERE WILL BE NO PROBLEMS AGAIN.
It was God who said that the elder shall serve the
younger. Right now the elder and the younger are one. If He
did not die, nothing would have made the elder and the
younger to unite again, nor will the world be united. SINCE
HE CREATED MAN, HE CAME AND DIED SO THAT HE MAY
GATHER INTO ONE ALL THAT WAS DIVIDED. THE WHITES
AND THE BLACKS ARE NOW ONE. MALE AND FEMALE ARE
NOW ONE. SMALL AND GREAT ARE NOW ONE. DO NOT
CAUSE DIVISIONS AGAIN BECAUSE WE ARE ALL ONE.
It is good for one to first suffer under servitude than to
be a lord before becoming a slave. Do you realize that if
somebody who is born with a silver spoon in his mouth, that
is he has everything he needs, exhausted his wealth, he can
commit suicide. The person who starts life in poverty, lack,
deprivation, without relations, when he prospers, he will
continue to go onward.
24. The blacks are going onward, there is no going back. That is
why I have invited Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe to come and have a
dialogue with me. The wealth, prosperity and peace which
are in Africa will never be exhausted. You are walking on top
of wealth. The whites are finding all possible ways to come
over here. The whole world knows this but a crafty person
will not disclose it to you.
That is why it has been said in the scriptures that you have
been placed where all precious stones and wealth was
found. You have gold and diamond, and emerald, and all
precious stones and minerals. This refers to Africa. The
wealth and mineral resources we have in Africa will never
be exhausted.
Right now you are struggling so that the whites may not
come and share in your wealth. Let them come in because
our Lord Jesus Christ died to unite all of us. THERE WILL BE
NO WARS, QUARRELLING AND HUNGER. IT IS HUNGER
WHICH BRINGS ABOUT WAR. DO NOT FOLD YOUR ARMS.
HOWBEIT, WHETHER YOU FOLD YOUR ARMS OR NOT,
SINCE IT HAS BEEN ORDAINED THAT THE BLACKS WILL
SERVE GOD, THIS HAS TO BE SO.
The whites will also serve Him and together we shall
join hands in lifting the glory of God. The whites and the
blacks will be here, and hunger, famine and wars shall be no
more. All that we see today does not come from man. It is
the death of Our Lord Jesus Christ which has brought
everything. They are all words of prophecy and the
manifestation of the will of God for mankind. The darkest
hour precedes the dawn. That is all that we are seeing now.
25. You complain that things are very tough. I want you to be
rest assured that all is well.
The only thing is that you should not learn the ways of the
whites because they have failed. Listen to the Holy Spirit. If
we listen to the Holy Spirit, we will help them. They have
failed by using the wisdom of the world. They are all walking
corpses because they are living an artificial life. Millions of
them have no homes. They live in hotels. They teach you all
kinds of abominable ways of life.
When you return from Europe, you live abominably here;
thinking that it is the best way of life. It is not the best life.
You have to go and straighten all that was crooked. These
infiltrations of foreign cultures have done great harm to our
country. Whoever returns from Europe behaves like an
European. You fornicate by the roadside, and can commit
any vice in the open because that is what you learnt from
the whites. I thank God because Africa is a jungle. We shall
start to hew down our big trees and start building our own
cities.
It is for this reason that we must always listen to the Spirit.
Do not listen to any white man or to any person for that
matter. Live a new life because this is the new world for
which our Lord Jesus Christ died and resurrected so that it
may be built again. This is the New Jerusalem, the New
World. What you see here has baffled the white man because
he has introduced the cinema, he has manufactured the
airplane, the submarine and many other things, thinking that
that is the way. But when you say "LET" and sickness goes
away and many other things happen, they find this wonderful
26. because it is not within the limits of their wisdom. For this
reason they become frightened.
And so brethren, every human invention is counterfeit; but
what is made by God is genuine. That is why He came and
gave up His life. Even though Pilate tried to save Him, He
could not because there is no crown without a cross. Since
the world has perished, He came to redeem the whole world
unto Himself. We all have to rise up.
DO NOT PUT ON TIES AND COATS AND HATS. IF CHRIST
CAME AND DRESSED WITH SHOES AND HATS, WE WOULD
NOT HAVE BEEN SAVED. HE WAS DISGRACED AND KILLED,
AND HE ENDURED ALL IN ORDER THAT WE MAY BE SAVED.
The whites have a great work to do in this Kingdom. Do not
say that they are not here, they are. All those who are in this
country have work to do in this Kingdom of God. Take the
case of Joseph of Arimathea as an example. He did not walk
with our Lord Jesus Christ but see what he did. Those who
are working hard for Brotherhood are outside doing the
same work.
Let our golden text be read so that you may know that all of
us have work to do in this Kingdom. The whites have work
to do. The blacks, children, young and old, all have work to
do. All you have to do is to face your duty.
Golden Text: Luke 23:50-53
"And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counselor,
and he was a good man, and a just: (The same had not
consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of
27. Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for
the Kingdom of God. This man went unto Pilate, and begged
the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in
linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone,
wherein never man before was laid."
If I want to explain this text, we will not exhaust it in twenty
years. That is why it is said that Elijah prayed God to take
his life because people had killed all the prophets of God
leaving him alone; and even then they sought after his life.
What did God answer him? God said, "I have left 7,000 men
who have not bowed to Baal." Have you heard that?
Do you know that the whites and all the inhabitants of the
world are waiting for this glory? All the wealth in the world
will be used in building this Kingdom. All the rich men in
Nigeria and in Africa, the governments and companies and
all their wealth will be used in uplifting this glory. There is
no problem because God has already prepared everything.
Do not worry yourself that you have no money.
If we were to be the only Brotherhood, we would not exist
up till today. There are others outside fighting the cause of
Brotherhood; among the whites and the blacks. THE HIDDEN
DISCIPLES ARE MORE NUMEROUS. IF THEY DECLARE THAT
THEY ARE BROTHERHOOD THEY WOULD BE STONED. THAT
IS WHY THEY ARE HIDING. IF YOU WANT TO STAGE AN
OPPOSITION TO BROTHERHOOD, THEY WILL INTERVENE.
SHOULD YOU ASK THEM, THEY WILL ARGUE THAT THEY
ARE NOT BROTHERHOOD BUT ARE ONLY DOING IT, FOR
DOING'S SAKE.
28. You can realize how God does his work. A certain brother
has said that every person is Brotherhood but not every
person will come here. Most of those you find here are not
the real Brotherhood. THOSE OUTSIDE, THE HIDDEN
DISCIPLES, ARE THERE TO DEFEND BROTHERHOOD. YOU
ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE DOING THIS WORK. IT INVOLVES
THE WHOLE WORLD.
In Sierra Leone, the house we are using for worship was
given by a Moslem. Right now, the government is protecting
the interest of Brotherhood. In Ndon Ebom, when there was
a dispute, it was the government which defended
Brotherhood.
Do not speak evil words against any person. Do not
discriminate that one person is Brotherhood and the other
person is not Brotherhood. You do not know who is a
Brotherhood and who is not a Brotherhood. Take the case of
Joseph of Arimathea, the disciples and even the mother of
Our Lord Jesus Christ ran away but he went and asked for
the body of Our Lord Jesus. Stop speaking evil words
against any person because you do not know who is a
Brotherhood and who is not a Brotherhood.
God is the God of hosts. He has very many people. He owns
heaven and earth and all the inhabitants of the world. You
will see what will happen among the whites. All the money
they have in their big banks will be used in the service of
God. All their wisdom will be used in the service of God. With
this, you will not complain that you have nothing. It is the
Father who owns everything.
29. If it were not the fullness of time, these things would not
have happened. God had planned and completed everything
for the manifestation of His glory. Right now, He has taught
people to learn other languages. He has taught people the
manufacturing of airplanes and cars for quick
transportation. This will prove to you that he has finished
everything.
It is not an easy thing to unify the whole world. That is why
he said that this generation should not pass away until
everything is fulfilled. This generation has not passed away;
it is about eleven years more. He has finished everything
and the whole world is now one. Do not cause any divisions
again.
Most of the kindness that we receive are not from
Brotherhood but from others who are not in Brotherhood. It
is your Brotherhood brother who wants to kill you. All the
inhabitants of the world are waiting for this Kingdom. Even
Satan himself is waiting for this Kingdom. Each person has
his own work to do. Whether somebody comes here or not,
he is in Brotherhood.
The disciples were walking with our Lord Jesus Christ
always but Joseph of Arimathea was not. When He died, it
was Joseph who went and asked Pilate for the body, and
laid Him in his personal sepulchre. Which is the greater
work?
It was the Commercial Manager of NTA Calabar who, when
he returned from Europe, stamped his feet that the
Brotherhood Pulpit should be aired. They wrote to Lagos
30. that he should be sacked. He said that even if they sacked
him, they had to air the programme. That was one man and
at that time he was not baptized. Was it done by you who
call yourself members?
Those who carry Brotherhood on their heads are not here.
They are outside and you do not know them. Even among the
whites, if you go there you will realize that God keeps
everything in its place. Do not bother about somebody's
color or race because the Father is doing His work.
When you swim, you have to dive and later on resurface.
That is full swimming. Do not praise yourself but praise
JEHOVAH GOD AND HIS CHRIST WHO DID HANG ON THE
TREE. HE IS THE ONE DOING THESE THINGS. NEITHER YOU
NOR I NOR ANY PERSON CAN CLAIM TO BE RESPONSIBLE.
One stroke of the cane is sufficient for the wise. Those who
have ears let them hear. May God Bless His Holy Words. A-
men!
