- The document discusses how Jesus Christ, the Messiah, was rejected by the world despite being the stone the builders rejected and the king of kings.
- It describes how previous prophets like Moses, Elijah, and John the Baptist were also rejected, with John the Baptist being killed by Herod.
- The key point is that the world has continually rejected God and his messengers, with Jesus Christ being the ultimate example as the rejected Messiah despite his miracles and message of salvation.
Ezekiel lived among the Exiles in Babylon. He received an overwhelm vision of God who commissioned him to be His messenger to the the people living in exile. The first 24 chapters concern the coming destruction of Jerusalem as God's judgment on Israel's unfaithfulness. The second half contain promises of restoration.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. HIGHLIGHTS
*
Let our second lesson be read. I KNOW THE T.V. WILL
DIVIDE THIS GOSPEL INTO SECTIONS BECAUSE WHEN
THEY GET TO TOPICS WHICH CONVICT THEM HARD, THERE
HAS TO BE ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE AND
SUBSEQUENT BREAK IN TRANSMISSION OF THE
BROADCAST. BUT IF IT IS A SATANIC PROGRAM, THEY
WILL SHOW IT TILL THE END WITHOUT ANY TRANSMISSION
INTERRUPTION.
*
The fact remains that God has never repeated his own
thing. If somebody comes to tell you that he is Christ, leave
him alone, and pass on. Christ is not coming to walk from
place to place. HE IS COMING AS THE KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS. WHERE DOES HE HAVE TO MOVE TO? HE
IS EVERYWHERE AND IT IS EITHER YOU SEE HIM OR YOU
DO NOT SEE HIM. ANY KING WHO CARRIES HIS OWN CHAIR
IS NOT A KING. A KING HAS HIS CHAIR AND THRONE AND
EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR HIM
*
All the words you find from the book of Genesis down to
the book of Revelation are spoken by Him. There is no other
person apart from Him right from Genesis through
Revelation. David called Him My LORD,@ Moses called Him
JEHOVAH.@ He was given different names at all times.
*
What evil thing has he done that you reject him? He alone
loves us. HE IS OUR LEADER, HE IS THE KING OF
KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO HAS LIFE, AND IN WHOSE
3. HANDS ARE THE KEYS OF DEATH. HE RULES OVER THE
HADES. HE IS JUDGE AND RULER. BUT HAS THE WORLD
NOT REJECTED HIM?
*
Because of giving sight to the blind and healing the sick,
the Chief Priest and the Pharisees, those who claimed they
had seen God face to face, said they knew Abraham and
Moses and NOT Jesus. Those were the people who said that
He should be crucified because He was a sinner. THE
GOVERNMENT DOES NOT MAKE TROUBLE, THEY SEEK
PEACE. RIGHT FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL THE PEOPLE WHO
WAGED WAR AGAINST GOD ARE THOSE WHO PROFESS TO
KNOW HIM. AND SO IT WAS WITH OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST. PILATE TRIED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO RELEASE
HIM BUT THE JEWS INSISTED ON HAVING HIM KILLED.
PILATE SET UP OVER HIS HEAD HIS ACCUSATION
WRITTEN: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS. THEN
SAID THE CHIEF PRIEST OF THE JEWS TO PILATE, WRITE
NOT THE KING OF THE JEWS, BUT THAT HE SAID I AM KING
OF THE JEWS. PILATE ANSWERED AND SAID, AWHAT I HAVE
WRITTEN, I HAVE WRITTEN.
4. THE REJECTED MESSIAH
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME
YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER. (HEBREWS13:8)
FIRST BIBLE LESSON:
MATTHEW 21:42
Jesus said unto them, Did ye never read in the
scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected,
the same is become the head of the corner: this is
the Lord's doing and it is marvelous in our eyes?
SECOND BIBLE LESSON:
LUKE 17: 25 But first must he suffer many things,
and be rejected of this generation.
GOLDEN TEXT: JOHN 1: 11
He came unto his own, and his own received him
not.
Hear the Word of God! Whenever the texts are read out,
people have to agitate within their minds what is coming up
for the day. It is said that only the king knows the secrets of
his kingdom. So what he shuts none can open; what he
opens no one can shut. Even if you pray, you cannot know
what is going to be preached. Even if you are a visioner, you
cannot see into this. All of you have got the Bible but do you
read those texts? It is today that I want to reveal them to
you and the meaning of these portions. Listen attentively
5. and pray in spirit.
Fix your gaze steadfastly on the red garment. Since the
Father does not want us to perish, He has set aside this Holy
week so that we may change over, so that He can use us in
manifesting his glory. I am sure that the revelation of
today's scriptures is going to save a great number of souls
who would otherwise, have perished throughout the entire
world. It will also remove the thought of the things of this
world from the hearts of many and will make them think
about the things of this kingdom. This revelation will also
cause all those who came here to joke to reorder their
thinking. Many people, angels and men, will repent of their
sins because of today's gospel. All those who are proud and
who regard themselves as good, righteous and the only
exalted ones, this gospel will humble all of them.
Brethren what was being referred to in the three texts read?
Of whom were they prophesying? Our Lord Jesus Christ
asked them, Have you not heard what is written in the
Scripture, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is
become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing and
it is marvelous in our eyes. To whom were the prophets
referring when they spoke that prophesy mentioned by Our
Lord Jesus Christ? Has this prophesy been fulfilled or not?
The stone which the builders rejected has become the head
of the corner. Brethren I groan with pain and tears in my
eyes for the whole of this generation. It is said that heaven
and earth shall pass away but the Word of God will never
pass away until they are fulfilled. What was done to the
Jews will also be done to the Gentiles. OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.
Can you not see that Jesus is the stone which builders have
6. rejected? You are looking for help from Him and you are
praying that God should come and save you from tribulation
and death, that there are too many sins and suffering; but
Our Lord Jesus Christ is the stone which the world has
rejected. Until this day, has the whole world not rejected
Him? But you continue to shout Jesus, Jesus.
HE IS THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO WAS
IN EXISTENCE BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD
WAS LAID. HE CAME DOWN ON EARTH TO SAVE US BUT
THE WORLD REJECTED HIM. THIS STONE IS NO OTHER
PERSON THAN HIM. NO OTHER PERSON HAS BECOME THE
CORNERSTONE, HE ALONE IS THE CORNERSTONE.
The church has rejected Him. Even the afflicted, the sick,
and the poor have rejected Him. But we are looking for help.
We want Him to come and change us, we want him to come
and lead us, we want Him to come and guide us, we want
Him to come and teach us about His kingdom. We want Him
to rule, but we reject Him: we have rejected the ruler of the
whole world. That alone accounts for the position you now
find yourself in. HE IS THE MEDIATOR OF THE NEW
COVENANT. HE IS THE LEADER OF THE GOVERNMENT
FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION. THERE IS NO OTHER
KING IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH APART FROM HIM. HE
ALONE HAS TO RULE, BUT HAS THE WORLD NOT REJECTED
HIM? HE SPOKE FROM HEAVEN TO YOU BUT YOU
WONDERED WHY HE ALWAYS SENT HIS VOICE FROM
ABOVE THROUGH THE PROPHETS; COULD HE NOT COME
DOWN THAT YOU MAY SEE HIM?
All the words you find from the book of Genesis down to the
book of Revelation are spoken by Him. There is no other
person apart from Him right from Genesis through
Revelation. David called Him My LORD, Moses called Him
7. JEHOVAH.He was given different names at all times. In the
time of Moses, the Israelites asked Him every time you
continue telling us, Thus says the Lord, can He not come
down so that we may also see Him? They said they were fed
up with hearing thus said the Lord everyday. One day Moses
told them to get prepared and follow him to see God. When
they went to ascend the mountain, the heaven merged with
the earth, there were thunder and lightening, thick clouds of
darkness emerged and there was a terrible earthquake.
They told Moses to go alone and come back to report to
them because they could not bear the sight of God. After all
these, did they obey or hear His voice? Did they observe the
commandments which they were given? No person believed
Moses. The laws were given to them not to kill, not to steal,
not to commit adultery, not to bear false witness, not to
have any other gods, but these were the very things they did
to perfection. For this reason, twenty-three thousand
Israelites died in one day for the sin of fornication.
Christ told them, do not think that I will accuse you before
God. Even Moses whom you claim to know, he has passed
judgement on you. If you believed what Moses wrote, you
would also believe me, because Moses bore testimony of
me. As long as you do not believe in Moses, how will you
believe in me? You will see that upon all the mighty works
which God did through Moses, they did not believe in Him. It
was not long after he went to the mountain to
receive the laws, when the Israelites asked Aaron to
make them a god who will go before them because
they did not know what had happened to Moses.
Think of that situation. Moses brought them out of
Egypt to the place they were but as he went to
8. collect the laws, they said they did not know what
was wrong with his head; they called on Aaron to
make them a god. Did they not reject Moses? Aaron
was his brother and he went ahead and made a
golden calf and they danced and rejoiced over it.
They acclaimed that the golden calf was the god who was to
go before them. By the time Moses came back, they were
singing to another deity.
Moses in anger threw down the tablets of commandments
and they were broken. Can you see the stone which the
builders rejected? It was God Himself who sent Moses to
them but they went and made for themselves a golden calf
with eyes that could not see and ears that could not hear.
They exchanged the living God for a lifeless object. It was
said that Elijah would come before the Messiah and they
were waiting for Him, but when He arrived they sought to kill
Him until he had to ask God on three occasions to take away
his life. There is nothing they did not do to Elijah. They
destroyed all the altars of God and killed all His prophets.
The world has done these things to all the prophets of God
right from Abel until today.
THE WORLD DOES NOT WANT TO HEAR OF ANY PERSON
WHO SPEAKS OF GOD. THEY HAVE ALL REJECTED GOD.
When you read First Kings 19:10-18 you will see how Elijah
prayed that they had killed all of God's prophets and he
alone was left and they were seeking his life. That will prove
what the world is to you. Throughout the whole world, right
from the time of Adam, no one wants Jehovah God and his
Christ. Upon all that, they feign righteousness. The moment
they hear anything pertaining to God, a fight will start. But
he is the stone which the builders have rejected. No person
believed in Elijah and so God took him up finally before their
9. eyes. They repented of their sins and started weeping, AO!
When is he coming back again? We should not have done
that to him, they lamented. But it was too late. Since they
told God that they are looking for Elijah, God told them that
he would send him again. In Malachi 4:5 And I will come
near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness
against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and
against false swearers, and against those that oppress the
hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and
that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me,
saith the LORD of hosts. It is prophesied that Elijah will
come before the Messiah arrived and they were very eager
for this to happen. They took the portrait of Elijah and
continued to look up to the sky. Until this day the
whole of Israel is still waiting for Elijah to come
again. If you go to tell them that the Messiah did come,
they will tell you to sit down because you do not know what
you are saying. They will ask you if you do not know that
Elijah will precede the Messiah. If Elijah has not come, how
can you talk about the coming of the Messiah? If you talk of
Christ to them, they will stone you to death. Did Elijah not
come? Who was John the Baptist? JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS
ELIJAH, but who believed in him?(Matthew 17:10-13). 10:
And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the
scribes that Elias must first come? 11: And Jesus answered
and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore
all things. 12: But I say unto you, That Elias is come already,
and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever
they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of
them. 13: Then the disciples understood that he spake unto
them of John the Baptist.
They expected Elijah from the sky as they held his portrait in
10. their hands, but since they could not see the facial
resemblance between John the Baptist and Elijah, they did
not believe in him. What is it that they did not do unto John?
John the Baptist taught them everything about purification.
He turned their hearts from their evil ways into believing in
God but what happened? Did Herodias not demand for the
head of John the Baptist? Was it not him who sent soldiers
to go and cut the head of John the Baptist in prison? Is it not
the very you who say you are looking for salvation? That
was the Elijah they said would come and save them but did
they know him? Let the first lesson be read.
FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 21:42
Jesus said unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures,
The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become
the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing and it is
marvelous in our eyes?
Have you heard that? THE MESSIAH WHICH THE WHOLE
WORLD HAS BEEN WAITING FOR, THAT WHEN HE CAME, HE
WOULD LEAD THEM TO THE WISDOM OF TRUTH, DID HE
NOT COME? HE IS THE KING OF KINGS; BEFORE CREATION
HE WAS KING. HIS GLORY DID NOT COME FROM MAN. HE
WAS BORN KING. WHEN MAN WAS CREATED, HE WAS
THERE. HE IS THE RULER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH.
Herod was startled by the mention of another king of the
Jews. On the same night he arranged and carried out the
murder of all infants below the age of two. Is that not the
stone which the builders rejected? Is that not the Christ
they were praying should come quickly? Do not forget that
God wanted to destroy the whole world because He was fed
up with it. No angel intervened, no man intervened, but Our
Lord Jesus Christ said: Do not destroy it, Father, I will go
and save them. THAT IS THE STONE THE BUILDERS
11. REJECTED; WE HAVE THE ONE WHO CAME TO SAVE US. HE
IS THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS; THE RULER
OF HEAVEN AND EARTH. HE CAME TO SAVE MAN FROM
DESTRUCTION AND PLACE HIM IN THE POSITION OF
GLORY, BUT HAVE WE NOT REJECTED HIM? Did we not kill
him? Do we not hate him? Have we not spat on him? Have
we not called Him Beelzebub and ghost? There is no church
denomination or individual or government or nation which
wants Him. Put it in your diary because today belongs to
Him. Look at the finger which has fed us, you not only bite it
but you chew it. Let all the world, including the angels and
men ponder over this thing. What is going to happen to man
who persists in making the same error every time? What evil
did our Lord do to you? He raised the dead, he made the
lame to walk, he made the blind to see, he cleansed the
lepers. What evil thing has he done that you reject him? He
alone loves us. HE IS OUR LEADER, HE IS THE
KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO HAS LIFE, AND
IN WHOSE HANDS ARE THE KEYS OF DEATH. HE RULES
OVER THE HADES. HE IS JUDGE AND RULER. BUT HAS THE
WORLD NOT REJECTED HIM?
Think this over: that man was lying by the pool of Bethesda
for thirty-eight years and he had no one who could put him
inside the water. Jesus came and asked him if he was
desirous to be made whole, and he answered and said that
when the angel troubled the water, he had no one to carry
him into the pool. The sick who had relations were taken
down there but he had no person to help him. Christ asked
him if he was willing to be made whole, and he asked how
that could happen. Christ commanded him to, arise, take up
thy bed and walk. And immediately the man was made
whole. Who else could do that work? Since then, who else
12. has done that kind of work? What evil thing did Christ do by
telling the man to rise up and walk, even when he did not
charge him a kobo? He did not offer any sacrifices but he
was made whole. What evil did he commit? Tell me, all of
you inhabitants of the world, what sin did Jesus commit
against you? He went on with His disciples and found
someone who was blind from his birth and His disciples
asked Him: Is it this man who sinned or his parents that he
should be born blind? Christ told them that neither this man
nor his parents sinned, but he was born so that the glory of
God might be made manifest in him. And he spat on the
ground and mixed the clay with His spittle and anointed the
eye of the blind man with the clay and said unto him, Go
wash in the pool of Siloam. The blind man went and washed
and received his sight. What sin did Christ commit in this
situation? Was He responsible for the work? The people
asked the blind man how he came to see; and he told them
that a man named Jesus made him see; there was an uproar.
But they did not do anything to help him when he was blind.
Right now they were furious because He had opened the
eyes of a blind man on the Sabbath day. That was the stone
which the builders rejected.
HE CAME TO SAVE US. HE IS THE SON OF MAN, THE SON
OF GOD AND GOD HIMSELF. BUT WE REJECTED HIM. The
war started because they argued that he would not have
healed on the Sabbath day if he came from God; in their
understanding, He was from the Devil. They called the
parents of him that had received his sight and asked them:
Is this your son who was born blind? How then does he now
see? His parents answered them and said,We know that this
is our son, and that he was born blind but by what means he
now seeth, we know not; he is of age, ask him: he shall
13. speak for himself. They gave this answer because they were
afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had agreed already that if
any man did confess that He was Christ, he should be put
out of the Synagogue. They again called the man that was
born blind, and asked him how He opened his eyes. He
answered and said to them: I have told you already and ye
did not hear; why do you want to hear it again? Will you also
be His disciples? Then they reviled him and said, thou art
His disciple, but we are Moses' disciples. We know that God
spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from
whence he is.
Let our second lesson be read. I KNOW THE T.V. WILL
DIVIDE THIS GOSPEL INTO SECTIONS BECAUSE WHEN
THEY GET TO TOPICS WHICH CONVICT THEM HARD, THERE
HAS TO BE ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE AND
SUBSEQUENT BREAK IN TRANSMISSION OF THE
BROADCAST. BUT IF IT IS A SATANIC PROGRAM, THEY
WILL SHOW IT TILL THE END WITHOUT ANY TRANSMISSION
INTERRUPTION.
Second Bible Lesson: Luke 17: 25 But first must he suffer
many things, and be rejected of this generation. Whom was
this written about? To whom does this prophecy refer? It is
said that first he must suffer many things and be rejected of
this generation; this generation must reject him.
Did they not say that it was Moses they knew? But as for
that man he was from the devil and no person should listen
to him. The whole world is shouting Jesus, Jesus, but did
they not reject Him? Did your fathers and mothers not reject
Him? Today who can show me one disciple of Our Lord
Jesus Christ? Who among you keeps His commandments?
Bring that person before me.
When Lazarus was sick, his sisters went and told Christ that
14. the friend whom he loved was sick. And he answered them
and said: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of
God, that the Son of man might be glorified. And he went
about his own business. After about four days, He said to His
disciples, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; let us go that I may
awake him out of sleep. Then said the disciples, Lord if he
sleeps, he shall wake up. He then told them plainly that
Lazarus had died; nevertheless let us go and raise him.
(John 11:14-15)
Peter was excited because that was the sort of thing he was
waiting to see. And they asked Him: Master the Jews of late
sought to stone thee, and do you want to go there
again?(John 11:7-8)
JESUS NEVER WENT OUT OPENLY TO DECLARE HE WAS
THE CHRIST. HE WENT IN THE COMPANY OF HIS
DISCIPLES, AND THEY ALL WORE THE SAME GARMENTS SO
THAT HE MAY NOT BE IDENTIFIED. WHEN HE HEALED ANY
SICK PERSON, HE WOULD WARN HIM NOT TO TELL
ANYONE. THAT IS THE REJECTED STONE. HE IS THE
ALMIGHTY GOD, THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS
WHO CAME TO SAVE YOU THIEVES AND SINNERS BUT YOU
REJECTED HIM. PUT YOURSELVES INTO FERVENT
PRAYERS. I do not want to go far into that but you know
what happened when He raised Lazarus from death. The
whole city was in an uproar. Then gathered the Chief Priest
and the Pharisees and said: If we let this continue like this,
all men would believe in him: and the Romans shall come
and take away both our place and nation. Caiaphas stood up
as the high priest and said: Ye know nothing at all, nor
consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die
for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
Because he raised Lazarus and healed the sick, the blind,
15. the lame and the deaf, because he cleansed lepers, fed the
poor and did every good thing, they said that He must die.
Can you see how the world thanked God for coming to save
them? He would first suffer many things and be rejected of
this generation and that was exactly the situation with Him.
IT WAS NOT THE GOVERNMENT THAT KILLED OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST. IT WAS NOT THE JUJU PRIESTS WHO
CLAIMED TO KNOW THE REAL GOD BETTER THAN ALL
OTHERS. IT WAS NOT THE ROMANS WHO KILLED HIM; THAT
WAS WHY PILATE ASKED HIM: AM I A JEW? WAS IT NOT
YOUR OWN PEOPLE WHO BROUGHT YOU HERE? WHAT
HAVE YOU DONE? TO DAY THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING:
THE CHURCHES WHO CLAIM TO KNOW GOD BETTER ARE
THOSE WHO ARE CONSPIRING AND ASKING WHAT THEY
ARE TO DO WITH THIS MAN BECAUSE HE IS STILL
PERFORMING WONDERS. WHEN PILATE HAD EXAMINED
HIM, HE COULD FIND NO FAULT IN HIM.
Barabbas was a murderer and at every festival a criminal
had to be freed. Pilate asked which of the two he should
release unto them, Barabbas or Jesus? They answered that
he should release Barabbas to them and crucify Jesus. They
sought for the release of Barabbas even though every person
knew that he was a murderer, a thief, and an evil doer; they
demanded that Jesus should be killed. And Pilate asked
them: What has He done? But they said crucify him. Can you
see that? It is said that first he must suffer many things and
this generation will reject Him. Because of giving sight to
the blind and healing the sick, the Chief Priest and the
Pharisees, those who claimed they had seen God face to
face, said they knew Abraham and Moses and NOT Jesus.
Those were the people who said that He should be crucified
because He was a sinner. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT
16. MAKE TROUBLE, THEY SEEK PEACE. RIGHT FROM TIME
IMMEMORIAL THE PEOPLE WHO WAGED WAR AGAINST GOD
ARE THOSE WHO PROFESS TO KNOW HIM. AND SO IT WAS
WITH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. PILATE TRIED AS MUCH
AS POSSIBLE TO RELEASE HIM BUT THE JEWS INSISTED
ON HAVING HIM KILLED. PILATE SET UP OVER HIS HEAD
HIS ACCUSATION WRITTEN: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF
THE JEWS. THEN SAID THE CHIEF PRIEST OF THE JEWS TO
PILATE, WRITE NOT THE KING OF THE JEWS, BUT THAT HE
SAID I AM KING OF THE JEWS. PILATE ANSWERED AND
SAID, AWHAT I HAVE WRITTEN, I HAVE WRITTEN.
Brethren, have you assessed the situation properly. That is
why he said, Why do you call me Lord, Lord but you do not
the things I command you? He knew that there was not one
single person who believed in Him. The work of God is not
subject to any person's decision. It is either you shoot the
gun and split the barrel rather than lose the prey. There was
not one person who believed in Our Lord Jesus Christ. If
there is such a person, mention him. If you want to mention
Peter, I will remind you that he was the first person to deny
Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Let our Golden Text be read so that when you go back
home, you will think seriously about yourself. I do not say go
beyond that. The gospel of today is like a pregnant woman,
the time for delivery is fast approaching. I am not
butchering; I am only incising with the knife.
GOLDEN TEXT: JOHN 1: 11
He came unto his own, and his own received him not. To
whom does this refer? Who is that person who goes to his
own but his own received him not? Do you not argue that
God is not man? But God said, ALET US MAKE MAN IN
OUR OWN IMAGE AFTER OUR LIKENESS. THE US
17. REFERS TO THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY
SPIRIT. But now you argue that God is not man. Is he an
animal or a rock? Is he an angel? Answer me, you wise men.
HE CAME IN HIS OWN LIKENESS. HIS LIKENESS IS MAN. HE
COMES AS A MAN AND ON EVERY 25TH DAY OF
DECEMBER EVERYBODY EATS AND REJOICES THAT THE
VIRGIN MARY HAS GIVEN BIRTH TO A BABY BOY. BUT NO
PERSON BELIEVES IN HIM. And so the above scripture
refers to Our Lord Jesus Christ, He came in the manger as a
man. But did you receive Him? Who received Him? If he did
not fill the boat of Peter with fishes, Peter would not have
followed Him.
When He told His disciples how he must go to Jerusalem
and Chief Priest and Scribes, and be killed and raised again
on the third day, Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke
Him: This shall not be unto thee. Peter said this because he
had read that Christ would not die, forever he will not die
and so if Jesus was going to face death now it would mean
that he, Peter, had made a mistake in following Him. Can
you say that he knew or understood Our Lord Jesus Christ?
That is one. Another thing is that all that Jesus spoke to
them in public when they were alone, with Him, they would
ask Him to explain to them. At another time, Peter said: We
have left everything and followed you, what shall be our
gain? Does that question show that Peter believed in Him? I
can continue to cite instances to you to convince you that
no person believed in Him; but He can use anything to
manifest His own glory. THEY WERE FOLLOWING HIM
BECAUSE HE WILLED IT SO; IT WAS NOT OUT OF THEIR
KNOWLEDGE OF HIM THAT THEY FOLLOWED HIM. TAKE
THE CASE OF JOHN THE BAPTIST WHO REVEALED HIM TO
18. THE WHOLE OF ISRAEL AS THE CHRIST; DID HE NOT DENY
CHRIST? Did he know Him? When he was put in prison by
Herod, he remembered that the scriptures had said that
when Christ came He would deliver the captives and set at
liberty those that are bruised and so John consoled himself
that Christ would come and remove him from prison
immediately. But as he waited no person came; and so he
sent two of his disciples unto Christ to find out if He was the
expected one or they were to wait for another. Did John
believe in Him? Do not joke with the Word of God.
When you hear that a great multitude followed Jesus it was
because of the bread and fish He used to feed them with.
There was no person who followed Him with the conviction
that He was God, or the Christ. UNLESS HE INJECTS HIS
SPIRIT INTO YOU SO THAT YOU CAN PERCEIVE THIS
TRUTH, YOU CANNOT KNOW HIM. HE CAN ENTER INTO YOU
IN A MOMENT AND YOUR EYES WILL BECOME CLEAR AND
HE WILL IMMEDIATELY CLOSE IT UP. HE CHANGES INTO
ANOTHER FORM AND YOU WILL FALL BACK INTO YOUR
DOUBT. GOD IS TERRIBLY WONDERFUL.
Earthly things are used to illustrate heavenly things. If he
did not make bread for the people to eat who would have
listened to Him? His creature will follow Him. You have
heard what He said: NO MAN KNOWS THE FATHER, EXCEPT
HE SON, AND NO MAN KNOWS THE SON, EXCEPT THE
FATHER AND TO WHOM HE WOULD REVEAL HIM. That is
where the whole thing hangs. JESUS CHRIST IS HERE WITH
THE FATHER. THEY ARE EATING AND WORKING WITH YOU
BUT CAN YOU SEE THEM? You cannot see them, you do
what you must do, as you have always done. Because it is
said: HE CAME UNTO HIS OWN BUT HIS OWN RECEIVED HIM
NOT. Did His brothers receive Him? DID THEY NOT REJECT
19. HIM? JEHOVAH GOD AND HIS CHRIST IS THE
REJECTED STONE. BUT IS HE NOT THE RULER OF
HEAVEN AND EARTH? HE CONTROLS HELL AND HADES; HE
CONTROLS EVERYTHING. HE IS THE SON OF MAN BECAUSE
OF THE BLOOD. THE BLOOD IS MAN. HE IS THE SON OF
GOD BECAUSE OF THE WATER; AND WATER IS GOD. SO HE
IS GOD BECAUSE HE IS SPIRIT. THAT WAS HIM BUT DID
YOU KNOW HIM? DID YOU RECEIVE HIM? TELL ME
IF YOU KNEW THAT WAS GOD WHO CAME TO SAVE
YOU? THAT IS WHAT IDENTIFIES HIM AS GOD.
ON THE CROSS HE SAID: FATHER INTO THY HANDS I
COMMEND MY SPIRIT. IT MEANS THAT THE SPIRIT
IS THE FATHER, AND IF YOU HAVE THAT SPIRIT
YOU WILL RESURRECT.
WHEN THE SOLDIERS PIERCED HIS SIDE, THERE
CAME OUT WATER AND BLOOD FROM HIM, AND
THAT WATER IS THE CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD. THE
BLOOD IS MAN, AND SO HE WAS THE SON OF MAN,
SON OF GOD AND GOD HIMSELF. THAT WAS THE
REASON JOHN WAS TOLD TO BAPTIZE WITH
WATER. THE WATER IS CHRIST. AND CHRIST
HIMSELF SAYS THAT EXCEPT YOU ARE BORN OF
WATER AND SPIRIT, YOU CANNOT SEE THE
KINGDOM OF GOD. THAT IS WHY IT IS SAID THAT
AS MANY AS HAVE BEEN BURIED WITH HIM IN
SPIRIT IN BAPTISM HAVE PUT ON CHRIST. (Gal.3:27).
YOU HAVE BEEN READING THE BIBLE BUT HAVE YOU EVER
HAD THIS REVELATION GIVEN UNTO YOU NOW? AFTER
BAPTISM HE BESTOWS THE HOLY SPIRIT ON YOU AND YOU
20. THEN HAVE THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.
EVERYTHING IS CONSUMMATED. HE IS THE SON OF MAN,
THE SON OF GOD AND HE IS HERE RIGHT NOW BUT CAN
YOU SEE HIM? DO YOU BELIEVE IN HIM?
In the Book of Revelation 12:5 it is written that a woman
brought forth a man child who was to rule all nations with a
rod of iron. When hunting a strong or large animal one needs
an exceptionally matching powerful bullet. Man is not a
single creature and so He has to rule all nations with a rod
of iron. You wonder why I always laugh when I say these
things, but why should I not laugh? I have to laugh. On that
fateful day, He told His disciples that they would all deny
Him and forsake Him. But Peter said that even if all forsook
Him, I will never forsake you. But when the time came he
was the first person to deny Him. THIS WILL SHOW YOU
THAT THIS ELECTION IS EXTENDED TO US FREE OF
CHARGE. IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF YOUR GOODNESS OR
YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS; IT IS NOT BECAUSE OF YOUR
FAITH OR YOUR DESIRE. BUT HE IS LOVE, HE IS FAITH, HE
IS TRUTH, AND EVERYTHING. HE CALLED US OUT OF
GRACE AND YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW HE CALLED YOU. HE
HAS CHOSEN TO GIVE THIS KINGDOM TO THOSE HE
LOVES.
What man loves, God does not love; and what God loves man
does not love. IT IS NOT THE PERSON WHO COMMENDS
HIMSELF THAT IS APPROVED BUT IT IS THE PERSON WHO
GOD COMMENDS THAT IS APPROVED. The world does not
receive Christ neither do they know Him; they disgrace Him
and despise Him; BUT GOD HAS GIVEN HIM A NAME WHICH
IS ABOVE EVERY OTHER NAME, AS THE RULER OF HEAVEN
AND EARTH. AND THE VERY PERSON THE WORLD HAS
DISCLAIMED IS APPOINTED BY GOD TO BE THE KING OF
21. KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO IS TO JUDGE EVERY
CREATURE IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH. SINCE GOD HAS
DECLARED HIM AS HIS BELOVED SON, YOU CAN WEEP IF
YOU WANT TO WEEP. IF YOU LIKE YOU CAN REJOICE. YOU
CLAIM THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW HIM BUT THE FACT
REMAINS THAT HE IS THE RULER IN HEAVEN AND ON
EARTH.
When Christ was killed, did Peter not go back to his fishing?
Our Lord Jesus Christ said that He would resurrect on the
third day; but since they did not have the Spirit of God they
did not hear Him. When you do not have the Spirit of God,
everything here is like cinema. After you have heard and
seen, everything then passes away, and you cannot
remember them again. HE SAYS I HAVE COME IN MY
FATHER'S NAME AND YOU DO NOT RECEIVE ME BUT WHEN
ANOTHER SHALL COME IN HIS OWN NAME YOU WILL
RECEIVE HIM AND PROCLAIM HIM AS A WONDERFUL MAN.
Can you not see the coming of another person and how you
have rejoiced in Him? Do you think that at this time He will
again go about calling people to follow Him? The time He
came and called people to follow Him who obeyed? This
time he is not asking you to come, He is using a rod of iron
to rule. HE DOES NOT TELL YOU THAT HE IS JESUS OR
GOD, THAT IS CHILD'S PLAY. THE ROD OF IRON SIGNIFIES
HIS GLORY. THIS TIME HE IS COMING AS A KING
AND YOU KNOW THAT A KING DOES NOT MOVE
AROUND BECAUSE HIS WORKERS ARE THERE.
YOU ARGUE THAT WHEN HE CAME, HE WENT FROM HOUSE
TO HOUSE PRAYING FOR PEOPLE AND WASHING THEIR
FEET, BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT HE IS COMING AGAIN TO
PERFORM. HIS CHILDREN ARE THERE TO DO THESE
THINGS. IT IS AN INSULT FOR HIM TO DO THAT KIND OF
22. WORK AGAIN.
YOU SAY THERE WAS POWER IN THOSE DAYS, -IN
JERUSALEM AND IN JERICHO, HE WENT ABOUT DOING
MIGHTY WORKS; AND THAT WAS CHILD PLAY. RIGHT NOW
HE IS IN AMERICA, IN INDIA, AND EVERYWHERE. HE IS
INSIDE YOU, IN THE AIR, IN THE WATER, IN THE SKY, AND
EVERYWHERE MAN HAS SET HIS FEET. WHAT DO YOU
THINK OF SUCH A PERSON. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF SUCH
A RULER? IT IS THE SAME PERSON YOU ARE DENYING.
YOU CLAIM THAT HE IS DEAD AND THAT HE CANNOT RULE
OVER YOU. BUT IT IS TOO LATE BECAUSE HE HAS COME
TO RULE HEAVEN AND EARTH. ALL ANGELS, BLACKS AND
WHITES AND COLORED PEOPLE ARE ALL UNDER HIS
RULERSHIP. WHETHER YOU KNOW HIM OR NOT IS
IRRELEVANT BECAUSE HIS REIGN IS FOREVER AND EVER.
HE HAS NOT COME TO CLEANSE THE LEPERS AND RAISE
THE DEAD BUT HE HAS A LONG LEG. HE PASSES THROUGH
A THIEF AND RAISES THE DEAD AND YOU WILL RUSH AND
PROCLAIM THE THIEF AS THE TRUE GOD; AND SO YOU
FAIL. He can use a murderer to raise the dead AND DIVIDE
THE SUN INTO TWO AND YOU WILL BE ASTONISHED, IT IS
THE SAME ONE. But you will rush to see wonders, you will
accept the murderer as the real Jesus. He passes on and
you cannot see Him and so you fail by calling the murderer
Jesus. WHEN YOU WANT TO IDENTIFY HIM BY POWER AND
MIRACLES YOU FAIL. WHEN YOU BEGIN TO COMMEND A
PERSON BEING VERY POWERFUL, DO YOU KNOW THE
SOURCE OF THAT POWER? He has come to take dominion
and rulership. ALL ANGELS HAVE TO SERVE HIM.
BRETHREN, CAN YOU SEE THE STONE WHICH THE
BUILDERS REJECTED?
The church denomination says they are waiting for Him but
23. none keeps His injunction of love ye one another which He
left us. The Church leader will tell you that he founded the
church and that he raised the dead and he is even greater
than Jesus. Such works are elementary. THIS TIME HE HAS
COME TO CHANGE MAN SO THAT WE CAN LIVE IN PEACE
AND LOVE AND JOY WITH ONE ANOTHER. RIGHT NOW
RAISING THE DEAD IS A CARNAL JOB. IF YOU PRESS ON
LOOKING FOR THIS TYPE OF SIGN YOU PERISH. He says He
will wipe off all tears from your eyes; there will be no more
death, nor sorrows, nor mourning again. There will be no
sickness nor pain again. When there are no more sicknesses
what are you going to cure? That is what he has come to do,
but instead of you waiting for Him to do His work you run to
native doctors to have your problems solved. Do you think
God does not see you? You have failed. HE IS TRUTH, HE IS
PEACE, HE IS PATIENCE, MERCY, HUMILITY,
RIGHTEOUSNESS, SELF-CONTROL, GLORY, JOY, AND ALL
GOOD VIRTUES. It does not involve only raising the dead
and going about from house to house. Go to any part of the
world if there is anywhere you can find these virtues apart
from in Him.
Healing, miracles, are the old style and they are still
operating on their own scale. It is the same old thing which
is regarded as new when they arrive in Africa. And so all the
signs and wonders are meant to deceive the unbelievers. I
do not want to say more than this. I want everybody to get
back home and ponder over this statement. It is mental
arithmetic and you can either have the answer right or
wrong. The fact remains that God has never repeated his
own thing. If somebody comes to tell you that he is Christ,
leave him alone, and pass on. Christ is not coming to walk
from place to place. He is coming as the king of kings and
24. Lord of lords. WHERE DOES HE HAVE TO MOVE TO? HE IS
EVERYWHERE AND IT IS EITHER YOU SEE HIM OR YOU DO
NOT SEE HIM. ANY KING WHO CARRIES HIS OWN CHAIR IS
NOT A KING. A KING HAS HIS CHAIR AND THRONE AND
EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR HIM.
Brethren I do not intend to take you further than this. A
stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. He who has
ears let him hear. May the Lord bless His Holy words, Amen.
THANK YOU HOLY FATHER.
25. 2.
HIGHLIGHTS:
BRETHREN, IS IT NOT A THING OF JOY FOR ALL OF US SINNERS
WHO ARE NOT DESERVING OF GOD'S GRACE, THAT GOD HAS
CHOSEN TO WRITE HIS NAME ON OUR FOREHEADS? WHEN
PEOPLE SEE YOU, THEY EVENTUALLY SEE GOD; FOR YOU AND
GOD ARE ONE. IMAGINE THIS TYPE OF LOVE, FOR A PERSON TO
BE A KING, AND HE IDENTIFIES ALL HIS SUBJECTS AS KINGS ALSO.
WHAT IS LOVE! THERE IS NO DISCRIMINATION AS TO WHO
SHOULD HAVE THIS NAME ON HIS FOREHEAD, NO PARTIALITY,
NO DIVISION.
26. EVERLASTING GOSPEL:
THE NEW NAME OF GOD
First Bible Lesson: Revelation 19:12
"His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns;
and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself."
Second Bible Lesson: Revelation 22:4
"And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads."
Golden Text: Revelation 3:12
"Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and
he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and
the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down
out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name."
What you have just heard read to you, constitutes the knowledge that I
want to fix for the whole world today. Because at this final part of the days,
God does not want anyone to perish. The Father has seen that without this
gospel many people will perish because of ignorance, that is why He has
arranged to give you this everlasting gospel of all times. Those who search the
Word of God, the Bible, will find out that the final part of God's promise is in
the Book of Revelation. All that will take place shortly, in this final part of the
days are written in the Book of Revelation. This is the new covenant that God
made with His people. From time to time God has to change His covenant
with His people in harmony with His purposes.
God's Name Remains Secret
Many people today call God by the name of Jehovah. That is a Hebrew
name. Others call God by different names. Here in the South Eastern State
we have many names that we call God. In the East Central State and other
parts of Nigeria and the whole world, this God is known by different names,
but all these names are not His name. From Genesis to the Book of
Revelation, there is no single person who has known the name of God. I have
not heard it mentioned by anyone at all. What happens is that they imagined
that the name, for the various gods worshipped should also be given to this
27. true God. He is not known or called by these names. Therefore, do not allow
anybody to mislead you by these names. Do not put your hope on the name
"Jehovah" as the name of God, wherever you see it written.
Right from the beginning of the world, many people have framed
different names for God, some call Him "Jah". He is not. It is exactly as we
have it in the world today. You may see a person, and he says that his name is
Okon, but that is not his real name. So it is with some of you here, you
probably have up to five names. The name that you are called in the office, the
family, the name you are called in friendly circles, the one you use in duping
others, and other nicknames that you use as opportunity calls for.
All these are not your true names. Especially the names that you answer
in your office, also on your certificates may be different from the names you
are known at home. The names that you answer to in a strange land
are not the ones you are known at your home. As a matter of fact the very
names given to you by your fathers are not your names. God alone is the one
who knows individual names. This is a hidden truth to the whole world from
the beginning of creation. How many of you here know your names? That is
why it is of no value to boast in names because what you bear as names are
not your names. This is what has set the whole world aflame, this is what is
robbing, cheating and even killing you today. That is what has misled the
whole world -- names! Because someone will come before you and tell you
that he is Joseph, and you may take him to be a good Christian because of that
name, but very soon you will realize that there is nothing in that name but
falsehood.
A Secret Name
God's word tells us that the one that has come to rule the whole world
has come with a new name. He has a name inscribed on his garment which no
one knows but himself alone. I am speaking to you, who are waiting for Jesus.
I am speaking to you, who are waiting for Christ. I call your attention to this,
you are waiting for Jehovah. I speak to you who are waiting for Prima. I am
addressing you, who are waiting for Jehovah, Jah. Yes, you who are waiting
for a Savior and Emmanuel. You will not see them. Of course Emmanuel
may come to you and tell you that he is that Emmanuel that you heard of but
it will be a deceit.
Beware of False Gods and Christs
Jesus said that there will be false Christs. Be on the alert, because
someone will come to you and say, I am Jesus or Christ, and you will bow
down to him. Beware, he is not. Even if you were to see in a vision Jehovah
28. written on somebody's forehead, do not worship him, he is not. That is why
you are advised to beware of names so that you may not be led astray; because
someone will come to you saying that he is the long expected one, when he is
not. Since the world's foundation, there has not been any creature who has
known the real name of God. What Christ was able to reveal to us was
that, He is a Spirit and He is the Father. We accepted this revelation of
Christ. John further revealed God as Love. Christ revealed himself as The
Way, The Truth, and The Life. Therefore do not follow after any other
names, but follow, Love, Truth and Life for this will give you salvation. Do
not look for names anymore for they are deceitful and detrimental.
If someone calls on you do not ask him what denominations he belongs
to or what position he occupies in his Church, this brings inevitable rancor.
Do not be led astray by the robes of Pastors, Bishops, Reverends, Prophets,
Popes, Evangelists or Apostles. Have you not read of false Pastors, Prophets,
and Apostles. And what of this name Christian? This name has depraved the
entire world today. All the troubles in the world, all the crimes committed in
the world today are committed by those who say that they are Christians.
Christendom has failed. I say this because some of you, your fathers are
Pastors or Reverends. You are quite aware of the ways they use these names.
They use these titles for dishonest gains.
But the name of God is wonderful. It is a Holy Name, that nobody
knows. He has now come to rule both the heavens and the earth and there is
no one in heaven and on earth who knows the secret name that He is called by,
except Himself. Since the Scripture has told us that nobody else knows this
secret Name written or inscribed on His garment, it is then futile for any
person to waste his time investigating or imagining what should be His name.
More so, there has never been a time that any part of the Scriptures goes
unfulfilled, because God's Word must always come true. If this name were
Christ, it would present no difficulty for we all know Christ. If it were to be
Enoch, Moses, or John the Baptist, there would be no trouble, but this is a
secret name that He alone knows.
In the world today, you would see many Churches with different names,
some are called Church of Christ, Church of the Lord, Church of Jehovah,
what have they done? The use of these names does not change these others
that have chosen to be called, Abasi, Chukwu, Chineke, Allah, Olorun and
other names but these names have no effect on them. Therefore remove your
minds from names; but let us pursue truth and love which shall lead us to
salvation. For there is nobody on this earth who will know that Name. It is a
secret name known only by the one who has it. Let us no more waste our time
in trying to presume what this name may be, or try to work out the name in
29. the way you work out mathematics. It is a secret Name, do not worry
yourselves. For as the heaven is higher than the earth so also the knowledge of
God is higher than the wisdom of mankind.(Isa 55:9).
JESUS CHRIST HAS A NEW NAME
PEOPLE KNEW JESUS, AS THE SAVIOUR, AND CHRIST AS THE
ANOINTED OF GOD. BUT IT IS WRITTEN THAT HE WILL COME
BACK, AND WHEN HE COMES HE WILL HAVE NO SHARE WITH SIN,
THAT MEANS HIS NAME IS CHANGED. In your secular employment
there are ranks and grades. For instance, in the Police Force, there is the
Constable rank, Corporal, Sergeant, Inspector, Commissioner and finally the
Inspector General of Police. THEREFORE, IT IS MOST STUPID TO
BELIEVE THAT WHEN CHRIST COMES AGAIN HE WILL BE CALLED
CHRIST. DOES IT MEAN THAT CHRIST MUST RETAIN HIS FORMER
RANK INDEFINITELY? IN HIS TIME CHRIST WAS THE LAST
DEGREE OR IN OTHER WORDS, THE MASTER DEGREE. HE
FAITHFULLY PERFORMED HIS ASSIGNMENT AND OBTAINED THIS
MASTER DEGREE AND WAS PROMOTED AND ALL POWERS AND
AUTHORITY IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH WERE HANDED OVER TO
HIM TO RULE. HOW THEN WILL HE COME BACK TO ANSWER
CHRIST? IF YOU WERE HIM WOULD YOU ACCEPT SUCH A TITLE
WHICH IS CERTAINLY BELOW YOUR RANK? WHY SHOULD HE
ACCEPT SUCH NAMES AGAIN WHEN HE HAD ALREADY ATTAINED
CHRISTHOOD?
BRETHREN, DO YOU SEE HOW STUPID AND IGNORANT THE
WORLD IS? IT IS WRITTEN: WHEN THE SON OF MAN SHALL COME
IN HIS GLORY, AND ALL THE HOLY ANGELS WITH HIM, THEN
SHALL HE SIT UPON THE THRONE OF GLORY. (Matt 25:31).
CONSIDER WHAT IT MEANS! YES, THE ENTIRE WORLD WILL BE
PRESENTED TO HIM TO RULE. AND HE WILL SEPARATE THE
SHEEP FROM THE GOATS.
SINCE HE IS COMING IN HIS GLORY, HOW WILL HE AGAIN
ASSUME THE NAMES OF SHAME, SUFFERING AND DEATH ON THE
CROSS WHICH HE BORE IN HIS FIRST ADVENT? DO YOU NOT
KNOW THAT WHEN THERE IS A CHANGE IN PRIESTHOOD THERE
MUST BE A CHANGE IN THE COVENANT?(HEB 7:12) LIKEWISE
WHEN YOU ARE PROMOTED, A NEW NAME IS GIVEN TO YOU. HE
COMES TO JUDGE THE WHOLE WORLD. Therefore His coming this
time has no business with sin. And if you do not refrain from every bit of sin,
you will not see Him. He is not coming again as the friend of sinners. Why
30. then do people wait aimlessly in their homes, that when Christ will come, He
will come to their houses, walk about on the streets and cure diseases? Is this
not stupidity?
THEREFORE BRETHREN, GO AND TELL THE WHOLE WORLD,
THAT THEY SHOULD DISCARD SUCH BELIEF FROM THEIR
HEARTS; FOR IN THIS SECOND COMING HE WILL NOT BE KNOWN
BY THE FORMER NAMES AGAIN. HE COMES WITH A NEW NAME
AND IT IS A SECRET NAME, INSCRIBED ON HIS GARMENT THAT
NOBODY KNOWS EXCEPT HIMSELF ALONE. IF YOU LIKE ANSWER
'JESUS', AND ANY OTHER PERSON MAY ANSWER 'CHRIST'
BECAUSE HE HAS OPENED THE WAY FOR YOU. THOSE NAMES
HAVE BEEN SET ASIDE BY HIM. HE CANNOT ANSWER JESUS
CHRIST AGAIN. Hal-le-lu-jah. Therefore, do not know any person by
name. Do not look for Him by a name; for you do not know this name.
Moses came, people knew what Moses meant. John the Baptist came;
the world knew the meaning of John the Baptist. Jesus Christ came, the world
also knew the meaning. But no one knows the name of the one that is coming
except He himself alone. This is where your difficulty lies. 'JESUS'
MEANING THE SAVIOUR LIVED UP TO THE NAME AND WAS GIVEN
THE MASTER DEGREE WHICH IS THE DEGREE THAT EVERY MAN
OF GOD MUST ATTAIN, I.E."CHRIST". CHRISTHOOD IS THE
MASTER DEGREE THAT EVERY MAN OF GOD MUST ATTAIN.
WHAT IS BEFORE US NOW IS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF "FIRST
AND SECOND STEPS TO GOD.” THESE ARE WHAT WILL ASSIST YOU
TO ATTAIN CHRISTHOOD. SO THAT NO MATTER HOW MANY YOU
ARE, YOU ARE JUST ONE IN CHRIST; IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST.
THE FORMER NAMES HAVE PASSED AWAY NEW NAMES NOW
OPERATE
When you read the Bible, you will notice that Christ is referred to as
Love, and God is also Love. But in this case we are told that His name is
inscribed on His garment and no other person knows that name except him
alone. Therefore, it is a waste of time for any person to sit down and try to
imagine what type of name is referred to or what the name is.
THE GOD THAT IS NOW ON EARTH DOES NOT ANSWER TO
JEHOVAH, JAH, ELOHIM, OR ANY OTHER NAME YOU MAY CALL
HIM; AND ALSO THE ONE WHO IS NOW ON EARTH TO RULE WITH
AN IRON ROD, DOES NOT ANSWER JESUS CHRIST, SAVIOR OR
REDEEMER.
I AM SAYING THESE THINGS BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING INTO
31. RECORD AND IT WILL BE CIRCULATED WORLD WIDE, SO THAT IF
SOMEONE COMES TO YOU WITH TITLES AND NAMES, EITHER
JESUS OR CHRIST, MOSES, OR GOD, OR OTHER NAMES, DO NOT
LISTEN TO HIM, BECAUSE NO ONE KNOWS THIS SECRET NAME
EXCEPT HE ALONE.
We are witnesses according to the Bible that in those days the name of Jesus
was used to raise the dead, to make the lame walk. Why do so may Churches
that called on this name are not able to use the same in accomplishing these
great works today? Rather in some places if you make mention of the name
Jesus, you will be beheaded. Or if you build a house and you happen to write
all around that building the name of Jesus Christ, you would be told to
demolish that building.
And so brethren, have you not seen the truth in God's statement which says
that former things have passed away and all things have been made new?
Now, Peter, John, Abraham, Adam and Eve, and all other people of old are
here but they are not known by their former names, they now answer to new
names. The former things have passed away, all things have been made new.
Why is it that when you are told that God is now on earth, or that Jesus is
here and all other people of old, you start to look around? Do you think you
can see them physically? Read the first lesson, for I do not intend to go
further with you.
First Bible Lesson: Revelation 19:12
"His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns;
and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself."
Brethren, when you reach home, read this lesson again, and pray to
God fervently if he would reveal this secret name to you. It is of no benefit for
you to fast and pray asking God to reveal this name to you. Instead of your
searching for this name, use this privilege to love one another, practice the
Word of God, and remain faithful. The first heaven and the first earth had
passed away. The one in which you are living now is quite a new one. It is a
sure mistake for someone to say that my name is Okon, Ikwo and so on.
Many of you are singing. "Look on my forehead you will see the name of God
written." Do you know that name? It is written: "that the name of this God
will be written on your foreheads."
That is why many people in the world can easily identify you because of
the name of your God on your foreheads. How many of you here know the
name that is written on your foreheads? How many of you can tell the
meaning of that name? You members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star,
32. do you believe at all that a name has been written on your foreheads? If so,
then what is the name? The world has not come to know this. Therefore,
brethren, you can see that the wisdom of this world does not carry any weight
at all; therefore you should refrain from such course of foolishness. What do
you think is written on your foreheads? Do you think it is Okon, Ikwo,
Effiong, Moses, John, or Jesus Christ?
The Rule of God And His Christ Has Begun
Now is the time that Jehovah God and His Christ have come to rule.
Concerning that day, the Son does not know it nor the angels in heaven, only
He alone knows. That is why God that made heaven and earth has come
down to this earth according to His divine will to accomplish His divine will
by Himself. And today on earth there are evidences of His operation
worldwide. Jehovah God and the Lamb of God are now on earth, although He
does not answer to the Lamb again. You all know why He was called the
Lamb. But they have come with new names. There was also a reason why He
was called Saviour, Redeemer, Messiah. Brethren all those names have been
set aside. Former things have passed away (Rev 21:4) and now all things have
been made new. In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, A-men. Flesh and
blood cannot inherit this kingdom.(1 Cor 15:50). Let the whole world
continue to look into the sky, into the depths of the sea and to India and
Calma, they will not know this secret name. And what about you brethren, I
mean you who have been in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star for 10, 15, 20
years, have you known the meaning of what is written on your foreheads?
Why is it that when people look at your forehead, they immediately see the
symbol of light? Why then do people become terrified at seeing you and say
there is something else in Brotherhood? When God did not write His name on
your foreheads, were you not as good as a public towel to the world? But
from that day, He inscribed His wonderful Name on your foreheads, look at
yourselves now; have you not become signs and wonders to the world?
Hallelujah!
YOU ARE SIGNS AND WONDERS WITH THE SEAL OF GOD'S NAME
ON YOUR FOREHEADS
Do you sometimes think why people should be afraid of you? It is not
because of any juju, song or prayers or any power, but because God's name
has been written on your foreheads, by the one who is now ruling. He alone
knows the meaning of this name. When He wrote this name on your
foreheads did you see Him? Researchers, investigators, philosophers, I ask
you, when this name was written on your foreheads did you know? And you
33. Thomases, you who never believe unless you see, when God's name was
written on your foreheads did you see him? If you do not know the name that
is written on your foreheads, how would you be able to know the name of that
ONE, which is inscribed on His garment? Brethren, the worldly wisdom has
failed and the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. There is nothing
else that does all the mighty works here in Brotherhood than that name.
When all the creatures of God including the angels see this name of God on
your foreheads, they fall on their faces and worship God. In the name of Our
Lord Jesus Christ. Amen
It does not matter where you live or any place you may run to, or any
cloth you wear, you will be recognized as a member of Brotherhood. That
name on your foreheads is glittering and when people see it they are
magnetized, and the light from there goes into their eyes. God has come down
and He is doing His works by Himself.
I do not have any problem likewise yourselves, the white man and the black
have no more problems; in short, the world is free. Therefore do not worry
yourselves in the quest of who is who, Elijah, God, Jesus or Christ and others.
THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD. AND AS SOON AS HE HAS WRITTEN
THIS NAME ON YOUR FOREHEADS YOU AND GOD ARE ONE.
THERE IS NO MORE DIVISION, PEOPLE CAN SEE GOD IN YOU, NO
MALE OR FEMALE, NO CHILDREN; YOU ARE ALIKE IN THIS NEW
KINGDOM. Brethren, I not intend to take you further but when next you
will be here I will let you know more details about what is in this Name.
MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD TODAY, TAKE IT AS A SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY TO GO ABOUT PUBLICIZING THAT THEY HAVE
SEEN JESUS OR CHRIST SOMEWHERE. THIS IS A BYGONE WORK.
YOU DO NOT SEE JESUS OR CHRIST. HE DIED AND CONQUERED
DEATH, CONQUERED THE GRAVE AND HADES AND HE HAS BEEN
ENTHRONED AND GIVEN A NAME THAT NOBODY KNOWS EXCEPT
HE HIMSELF. In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ. A-men.
Please tell those who are now scrambling to be known by the name of
Jesus, Christ, Apostle, Prophets and so on, that all these have passed away,
that the one that has come to rule, has come with a new name inscribed on his
garment; that nobody knows except He Himself alone. May we have our
second Bible Lesson read. Pay attention to the reading.
Second Bible Lesson: Revelation 22:4
"They shall see his face, and His name shall be in their foreheads."
Brethren do you hear that? That they will see his face and that his name
34. shall be on their foreheads. The Word of God comes like fire. It is wonderful
to see this type of glory that God has manifested to sinful people like ourselves
here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Examine from any record
available, whether there has ever been a period of time similar to ours here in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.
FORGET ABOUT BEING A PROPHET, A PASTOR, A VISIONER, A
BISHOP, AND APOSTLE. ALL THESE NAMES ARE DECEPTIVE AND
FILLED WITH FALSEHOOD. ALL WHO HAVE SEEN GOD FACE TO
FACE HAVE GOT HIS NAME WRITTEN ON THEIR FOREHEADS BY
THE ONE WHO HAS THE SECRET NAME ON HIS GARMENT.
THEREFORE, YOU ARE NO LONGER KNOWN BY THOSE TITLES
BUT BY THE NAME ON YOUR FOREHEADS.
No one hears of your Names again, no one knows you by your Names,
if you like write your names all over your body, you are only known by
the NAME written on your foreheads. In the name of Our Lord Jesus
Christ. A-men.
With this new name on your foreheads, wherever you go, inside the
water, on top of the hills, in the thick forest, everything that sees this name on
your foreheads subjects and submits to you. In the name of Our Lord Jesus
Christ. A-men. You can move and travel to any part of the world fearlessly.
Nothing will rise up against you because of that name on your foreheads.
Therefore Brethren, do not seek for again any other names to answer or seek
for position, for this name on your foreheads surpasses everything in the
world. BRETHREN, IS IT NOT A THING OF JOY FOR ALL OF US
SINNERS WHO ARE NOT DESERVING OF GOD'S GRACE, THAT GOD
HAS CHOSEN TO WRITE HIS NAME ON OUR FOREHEADS? WHEN
PEOPLE SEE YOU, THEY EVENTUALLY SEE GOD; FOR YOU AND
GOD ARE ONE. IMAGINE THIS TYPE OF LOVE, FOR A PERSON TO
BE A KING, AND HE IDENTIFIES ALL HIS SUBJECTS AS KINGS ALSO.
WHAT KIND OF LOVE IS TYPE OF LOVE! THERE IS NO
DISCRIMINATION AS TO WHO SHOULD HAVE THIS NAME ON HIS
FOREHEAD, NO PARTIALITY, NO DIVISION.
Some do not want to see other members wearing the white gown, they
say it is for the prophets only. No, this is your garment of glory. Whether you
came in today or not, that name will be written on your foreheads and you
become a citizen of this new kingdom. You are no more known by any other
name, but by that One name on your foreheads. With this name on your
foreheads you are equals, unless you do not have this name on you. You
cannot hide your identity when once this name has been written on your
35. foreheads. You sinners, have you seen that name inscribed on your
foreheads? The world has rejected you, sin has rejected you. You have no one
on your side. YOU ARE THE FATHER! You are to walk fearlessly, boldly,
for there is none that can challenge you. It is this boldness that makes people
to wonder what you are given here in Brotherhood.
Every word of God is accompanied with Power. Therefore do not ask
any question of what is written on your foreheads, because all that were
written about you are now fulfilled in this final part of the time. Do not worry
yourselves to fast in order to know about the name on your foreheads. That is
contention and egotism. This will be disastrous to you. Take the words that
Christ spoke to His disciples when they returned from the ministry to heart:
"Do not rejoice because the demons have subjected themselves to you but
rejoice because your names have been written in the book of life."(Luke
10:17-20). Do not rejoice because you have children, do not rejoice of these
privileges, but rejoice because you have seen Him face to face, and He has
written His name on your foreheads.
If you look on your face in a mirror you will not see this name. If you
approach a visioner to tell you what is written on your foreheads he will not
see it, he cannot tell you. BECAUSE THAT NAME IS AN EVERLASTING
REDEMPTION FOR ALL SONS OF GOD. DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN
THE FOUR ANGELS WERE STANDING AT THE FOUR CORNERS OF
THE EARTH, HOLDING BACK THE WINDS OF THE EARTH, THAT NO
WIND MIGHT BLOW ON EARTH OR SEA OR AGAINST ANY TREE
BUT ONE OF THE ANGELS STOOD BY AND TOLD THEM TO HOLD
ON UNTIL THEY HAVE SEALED THE SERVANTS OF GOD UPON
THEIR FOREHEADS, AND THOSE SO SEALED NUMBERED
144,000.(Rev 7:3-4). These have the name of their Father written on their
foreheads and there shall be no evil, that will befall them. Since the
foundation of the world, this is the first time that the demons have been
puzzled with calculations. Because the whole world does not know the source
of the power in Brotherhood.
People ask what is the Brotherhood all about? They ask you to tell
them the truth of the secret Power in Brotherhood and your answer is always,
"I do not know." Hardly they believe you, they continue investigating and
even checking your movements, all to no avail. But it is that Name on your
foreheads that is worrying them. Because even death flees at seeing that name
on your foreheads. There is no other name in the world today than this
wonderful name. Today if you write this name `Brotherhood' on your door
post, your co-tenants will not be happy to see it. It is written that the name of
His God, the name of the city and his new name will be written on your
36. foreheads.(Rev 3:12). That is why if you call Him Jehovah, Jah, He does not
hear you, because this is not His new Name. IT IS ALSO WRITTEN THAT
HE WHO CONQUERS, I WILL MAKE HIM A PILLAR IN THE TEMPLE
AND NEVER SHALL HE GO OUT OF IT. WHAT WILL YOU CONQUER
IN ORDER TO BE MADE A PILLAR? YOU MUST CONQUER FEAR,
GOSSIPING, SLANDERING TEMPTATIONS, LOOSE CONDUCT. YES
ANYONE THAT CONQUERS THESE THINGS WILL RECEIVE THAT
INSIGNIA OF THE NEW JERUSALEM ON HIM. THE VERY NAME
THAT IS INSCRIBED ON HIS GARMENT IS WHAT HE WRITES ON
YOUR FOREHEADS IF YOU CONQUER. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF IT,
BRETHREN, THAT HE WRITES ON YOUR FOREHEADS THE EXACT
NAME THAT HE IS KNOWN BY? WHAT A WONDERFUL PRIVILEGE?
Go and tell all those now fighting to be called Jesus or Christ, angry
people, man of strife and bitterness, tell them that the former things have
passed away and now all things have been made new.
Today many people are even surprised to hear the name Brotherhood of
the Cross and Star. They say that they have heard of so many names of
Churches, but not Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Since you were born
have you yourselves heard of such a name, either in this world or in a dream?
This is an example of what I have been telling you.
Today people nurse an animosity against this name, Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star. If you visit people and say that you are from the Duke Town
Church, or Church of Christ or any other church, you will be welcomed. But
if you say that you are of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, you will be
given cold shoulder and asked to go away from their midst. Even juju priests
will be welcome, for they say that they are saving lives. Members of these
Societies will be encouraged but not those of Brotherhood. This they say is too
bad to belong to. They term it a Society of Beelzebub. Today no one in the
Brotherhood says he is going to a Church but to a BETHEL. They talk about
building new Bethels and this language is only understood by them. Yes, if
God does not teach you, you will not learn, you will never, never understand,
no matter how old you are in this world.
THE NEW CITY SPOKEN ABOUT SYMBOLIZES
YOU YOURSELVES. THE NEW JERUSALEM SPOKEN
ABOUT ALSO REFERS TO YOU. AND HIS NAME
MENTIONED THEREIN IS THE WORD OF GOD. It is said
that never shall they go out of it. Mention any Church in the whole world
where its members sleep in it always. But not so in Brotherhood of the Cross
and Star. This is the house of our God where all those who come in will not go
37. out of it. May we listen to the golden text.
Golden Text: Revelation 3:12
"Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and
he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and
the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down
out of heaven from God: and I will write upon him my new name."
Do you hear what this portion of the Scripture says? Yes, they shall
never go out of it. If you are a Brotherhood member, you prefer to sleep on
the mere floor in the Bethel than on your beds at home. That is why people
say there is something in that place, for they cannot understand why you
prefer to sleep on ordinary floor always. They also accuse the Leader of
giving you something that makes you to forget your parents and relatives.
This is false. But Brethren, just listen to this statement! "He that conquers, I
will make him a pillar in the temples of my God; NEVER SHALL HE GO
OUT OF IT." That is the point.
YOUR WHITE RAIMENT IS ANOTHER CONQUEST FOR YOU
BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED TO SEE YOU IN THIS
WONDERFUL GARMENT OF GLORY. Mention any Church where you
see lawyers, doctors, people of high position in life going to sleep on the floor
like we have in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In fact many of the
decorated Cathedrals are kept empty for the demons to dwell while the
members are driven home after a limited time of meetings.
PUT ON THE NEW PERSONALITY
You are welcome to any Bethel of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.
Bethel is a city, a place of refuge. It is a Hebrew word. Therefore, Brethren,
do not be surprised at anything that you see here in Brotherhood of the Cross
and Star. The former things have passed away, and all things are made
brand new. Do not come here with your former ways of doing things, which
you learned when you were in other churches because it will not fit in this new
system of things. Rather, put on the new personality which was created
according to God's will in true righteousness and loyalty.
THE NAME OF GOD IS LOVE. THE NEW JERUSALEM IS LOVE.
AND THE CITY OF GOD IS LOVE. THAT MEANS EVERY ONE MUST
MANIFEST LOVE. LOVE ALONE RULES. CHRIST SAID, "I AND THE
FATHER ARE ONE." (JOHN 10:30). YES, THEY ARE ONE IN LOVE.
LOVE ALONE REMAINS. THERE IS NO ROOM FOR ANGER, WRATH,
BITTERNESS, INJURIOUSNESS, FALSEHOOD, IDOLATRY, OR ANY
UNFRUITFUL WORK THAT BELONGS TO DARKNESS, BUT TO
38. REMAIN IN LOVE.
Let every one of us know that the former things have passed away, and
all things have become new.
Remember what happened to the Israelites because of their
stubbornness. They sinned against their God by desiring injurious things and
practiced fornication only to die twenty-three thousands of them in one day.
Neither let us put God to test, as some of them put Him to the test, only
to perish by the serpents. Neither be murmurers, just as some of them
murmured, only to perish by the destroyer. The same thing happened to
those who did not obey what Christ taught. They were cursed. You
remember how he drove those money changers from the temple. They acted
contrary to His Father's will. But now all these actions have passed away,
because you have been transformed into the Kingdom of God and His Christ.
THIS IS A TIME OF JOY. THERE IS NO MORE DIVISION OR
HATRED; DO NOT SAY "THIS IS MY OWN, OR WE STARTED THIS OR
THAT BETHEL, YOU ARE A STRANGER BUT I AM A CITIZEN." NO!
ALL GLORY BELONGS TO GOD, AND HE OWNS EVERYTHING AND
DOES EVERYTHING BY HIMSELF. In the name of Our Lord Jesus
Christ. A-men. Accordingly, as God's chosen ones, clothe yourselves with
love; for it is a perfect bond of union. Do not remember the former things
again. Forget the things behind; and stretch forward to the things ahead,
which are all made new.
Brethren, let us not go further. Those who have ears to hear, let them
hear. May God bless His Holy Word. A-men.

"THE NEW NAME OF GOD" Pages: 6-16.
39. THE ERA OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
First Bible Lesson: John 16:7
"Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that
I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come
unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you."
Second Bible Lesson: John 15:26
"But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you
from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth
from the Father, he shall testify of me."
Golden Text: Matthew 12:32
"And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it
shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the
Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world,
neither in the world to come."
Brethren, the texts read to you constitute the revelation of
our lesson. I have already told you that this generation is the
luckiest of all generations. Also, our Lord Jesus Christ said
that this generation shall not pass away until all these
things, his prophecies, be fulfilled. (Matt 24:34). And he
added that the end of the world shall not come until the
gospel of the Kingdom has reached all the nooks and
corners of the world. (Matt 24:14).
Therefore, our Lord Jesus Christ bore witness about the
Holy Spirit. Our Lord Jesus Christ was the first person to
bear witness of the Holy Spirit. All other prophets testified
40. about Our Lord Jesus Christ, but Our Lord Jesus Christ bore
witness about the Holy Spirit whom you said you do not
know. Our Lord Jesus Christ did not testify about John the
Baptist. He did not bear witness about Moses or Elijah or
Isaiah but He bore eloquent testimony about the Holy Spirit.
The Father, Son And The Holy Spirit
The Father had accomplished his work of creation. The Son
did accomplish his works of redemption. And now is the era
of the Holy Spirit come to glorify his children. You have
heard what he had said as contained in these texts. That is
why I am beginning to keep you informed about this and
throughout this week I will continue to expatiate on this
topic, THE HOLY SPIRIT.
I have instructed you times without number that when you
go out to preach, preach about the Holy Spirit. Do not preach
about any person, nor should you preach about any Church,
Society, Organization nor Institution. But you should
proclaim to the people that the long expected Comforter, the
Holy Spirit promised, is now on earth. This explains the reply
of Our Lord Jesus Christ when the Pharisees asked Him
when the Kingdom of God would come? He replied, "The
Kingdom of God does not come with things to be observed.
Neither will men say, "Here it is or there it is; because the
Kingdom of God is within you". (Luke 17:21) To preach and
get people informed that Christ, Moses, Elijah and others
had come, is not a new thing. If you do not preach about
Jesus the Christ it does not mean that you are against Him.
The truth is that He had come, accomplished his work, and
gone. But this is the era of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit
41. has, in person, come to reign forever.
Many people do not believe in the existence of the Holy
Spirit. On this note, if you want to preach to them about
Moses or Elijah or Isaiah and other prophets, they would
claim to know all of them. But if you tell somebody about the
Holy Spirit, this is something very strange to them. Our Lord
Jesus did not say that He had to go so that Moses would
come. Neither did He say that His departure will usher in
Abraham or Elijah or any other person. But He said, "It is for
your advantage that I go away, for if I go not away, the
Comforter will not come unto you". (John 16:7)
This is the reason our Lord Jesus Christ said that whosoever
speaks ill of the Son of man shall be forgiven but anyone
who speaks an ill word against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be
forgiven him, neither in this generation nor in the world to
come. (Matt 12:32). Now how can you reconcile these two
statements? The first, that whosoever shall blaspheme
against the son of man shall be forgiven, and the second
says whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit
shall not be forgiven neither in this world nor in the world to
come. In these two statements, the essence of the Holy
Spirit is revealed. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS GREATER THAN THE
SON.
Simon Peter Revealed The Christ:
He did not preach about any other person or being apart
from the Holy Spirit. AND HE BOLDLY DECLARED THAT THE
COMFORTER, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL COME. AND HE HAS
NOW COME AND HAS TAKEN UP THE MANTLE OF
42. RULERSHIP OF THE WHOLE WORLD. But you claim not to
know the Holy Spirit. Since you do not know the Holy Spirit,
when you go out to preach, what do you preach about. We
are duty-bound to preach about the Holy Spirit. Wherever we
go we have nothing else to preach about but the Holy Spirit.
And it is said when you are told that He is in the desert or
mountain or in the secret chambers, do not go. (Matt.
24:26 -27) For as the lightning comes from one part of the
sky to another under heaven: so also shall the Son of Man be
in His day. He said further "All things are delivered unto me
by my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father,
neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to
whomsoever the Son will reveal Him. (Matt. 11:27)
Can you also see when Our Lord Jesus Christ asked His
disciples "who do the people say that I am?" They answered
some say thou art Moses, others say you are Elijah, yet
others claim thou art one of the prophets. Then He asked
them, you who have been with me, who do you say that I
am? And Peter answered "Thou art Christ. Son of the Living
God". And our Lord Jesus Christ exclaimed, it is not flesh
and blood that has revealed this thing to you but it is my
Father who is in heaven. And He implored them not to tell
anyone that He was the Christ. (Matt 16:16-20).
It is very clear here that flesh and blood can never reveal
the Holy Spirit unto you. Flesh and blood cannot even see,
let alone recognize the Holy Spirit. In another encounter, he
also told His disciples, "Yet a little while, and the world will
see me no more; but ye see Me, because I live, ye shall live
also". (John 14:19). Can you now see the manifestation of
the above statement? The children of God are now seeing
43. Him lavishly. They know Him, talk to Him; but the people of
the world do not see Him. And this explains why you can no
longer point to any direction, saying, Go, here is the Holy
Spirit or there because he is now present in our midst.
The Comforter Has Come
On this score, we are duty-bound to go out and tell the world
that the Holy Spirit, the long-expected Comforter is now on
earth. We have to proclaim the manifestation of the Holy
Spirit in our midst. He is the one doing all these wonderful
works. And the testimonies of our Lord Jesus Christ is now
made manifest. The Holy Spirit is operating everywhere and
it is our duty to reveal Him to the whole world.
It was written that... After those days I will put my laws into
their mind, and write them in their hearts; and I will be to
them a God, and they shall be to Me a people. And they shall
not teach every man His neighbor and every man His brother
saying, know the Lord. For all shall know Me from the least
to the greatest. (Heb 8:10-11).
Again when they approached him and inquired of him to tell
them the things of heaven, He said to them, If I told you the
things of earth and you do not understand, much more shall
you not comprehend the things of heaven. (John 3:12). If the
Holy Spirit does not reveal something to you, would you
understand? Do you also think that if the Holy Spirit does not
reveal Himself to you, you will recognize Him? Therefore, we
have to go out and proclaim to the whole world that the Holy
Spirit, the promised Comforter, is now on earth. That the
Comforter whom our Lord Jesus Christ bore witness and
44. testified about, has come to teach and lead us to the
accurate knowledge of the truth. He is now here with men to
dwell.
The ignorance of the reign of the Holy Spirit has led so many
people astray. That is why it has pleased the Father to set
aside this week in order to explain unto you step by step, in
chronological order to make you understand that the Holy
Spirit whom our Lord Jesus Christ bore witness about is the
one doing all these works. All along you have been going out
to preach another thing, you preach about man and the
things of the world. From now on, when you go out to
preach, tell the people that the long awaited Holy Spirit, the
promised Comforter, is now staying with men. He has come
to lead us to the accurate knowledge of the truth. And I will
continue to emphasize on this point throughout this week.
Our Lord Jesus Christ Went Away For Our Own Good
He bore witness about the Holy Spirit; and the Holy Spirit in
turn bore witness about Him. This goes to confirm that no
man really knows the Father, but the Son and to
whomsoever the Son will reveal Him. Therefore, if He did not
go, the Comforter would not have come. His departure was
for our own good that was why He was unable to do much
work. For this reason too, He had to depart at an earlier
time. If He were to remain up till now, the Comforter would
not have come. Nothing at all would have been better for the
whole world.
This reveals to us that we have a lot of work to accomplish,
not only preaching on the altar, but wherever we go.
45. Wherever you are, preach about the Holy Spirit now dwelling
with men and that all these wonderful works are done by the
Holy Spirit. How can you tell somebody that the Holy Spirit
is here? Is it something that can be seen with the carnal
eyes? Nobody can see the Holy Spirit with the physical eyes,
but you can only see Him with the Spiritual eyes.
It was for this reason that our Lord Jesus Christ said,
"except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of
God. Except a man be born of water and of spirit, he cannot
enter the Kingdom of God. (John 3:3). IF ANYBODY
CONFRONTS YOU WITH THE QUESTION, "WHAT IS
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR". TELL HIM THAT
HE SHOULD REPENT AND GET BAPTIZED AND THEN HE
WILL RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO WILL TEACH HIM.
WHOEVER IS NOT BORN OF WATER AND OF SPIRIT, HE
CANNOT SEE BROTHERHOOD. ANYONE WHO IS NOT BORN
OF WATER AND OF SPIRIT, CANNOT REMAIN IN THIS
KINGDOM.
This is no longer the time for somebody to look unto
another. It is not the time for anyone to bother Himself or
others, nor is it the time for anyone to preach unto another. I
have repeatedly told you that this generation is the luckiest
of all. You can recall what Our Lord Jesus Christ told that
Samaritan woman. When the woman said, "Our fathers
worshipped on this mountain, and ye say, that in Jerusalem
is the place where men ought to worship. Our Lord Jesus
Christ said unto her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour cometh
when ye shall neither in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem,
worship the Father. Ye worship what ye know not, we know
what we worship for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour
46. cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall
worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father
seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit and they that
worship Him; must worship Him in Spirit and in truth. (John
4:20-24)
The above reveals that the time was not yet come during the
advent of our Lord Jesus Christ. He bore witness to the fact
that the time would come in future when this will be made
manifest. He did not mention any other person. He bore
witness about the Father that He is coming in person.
Brethren, I will not take you further than this. Let our first
lesson be read.
First Bible Lesson: John 16:7
"Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you
that I go away; for if I go not away, the Comforter will not
come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you."
The Holy Spirit Does All The Work
Brethren, can you now see that we have to express a
thankful heart unto Him? When we eat, we ought to give
thanks unto Him for giving us the food. We have to glorify
Him wherever we are. In whatever we do, we have to give
glory and honor unto Him because though we do not see Him
with our physical eyes, yet we believe that He exists. He is
living in our hearts and He is the one doing all these
wonderful works.
Those who bore witness about Abraham, Moses,
47. Melchizedek and other prophets of old had short-lived
testimonies whereas those who bore witness about Our Lord
Jesus Christ are called the Apostles. Those opportuned to
bear witness about the Holy Spirit in this generation are the
luckiest. They are called the children of God.
Recall that portion which says that "A neighbor shall not
teach a neighbor; neither shall a brother teach his fellow
brother, saying know the Lord. (Hebrew 8:11). Right now can
you remember or tell who has taught you of God? Now you
have known this. Somebody may approach you and ask for
where the God you are claiming to know is. If you point to a
geographical location as the abode of God, you have failed.
If you are confronted with such questions, do not tell
anybody any other thing. Tell them to become fully
repentant, to confess their sins and get baptized. The
moment they believe and are baptized, they will receive the
Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit will further reveal Himself
unto them. He will reveal Himself unto them. Now the Holy
Spirit has come in person sending no one. He is the one and
only supernatural teacher. He is the one doing all these
works. The Son loves the Father and the Father who loves
the son, has revealed all things unto him. Our Lord Jesus
Christ said, "If you were to understand, you would have
rejoiced because I go to the Father and the Father is greater
than I." (John 14:28).
And now you can precisely understand that the Father, even
the Holy Spirit, has come in person and He is the one doing
all the works. No person is responsible for these works,
except the Holy Spirit. You cannot attribute these works
done to any other person. The Holy Spirit Himself has come
48. to reveal Himself to every person. The Son witnessed about
the Father and the Father has come. The Father is the Holy
Spirit. He is the one doing all the work around us. Our work
is to go forth, proclaim and reveal Him unto the world that
He has now come. You cannot attribute all these works to
any other person. He has come to reveal Himself and to
finalize his works. None other than Him is responsible for all
the works around us.
The Holy Spirit Is God
The Holy Spirit has come in person. He is the one who calls
you. He is God. He is the Lord and King. He is the Teacher.
He is the Leader, and all the works are done only by Him.
What prevents you from preaching to the people that the
Holy Spirit has come, and that He is the Supernatural
Teacher and Doctor who heals and gives good health and
life? Do not attribute these works to any other person. Do
not preach any other doctrine to the people but rather tell
them to repent and be baptized and then they shall be
imbued with the Holy Spirit. And He shall reveal Himself to
you for He is responsible for all these works. This is neither
the era of men, nor of prophet, nor apostle, nor angel, nor
son. This is precisely the reign of the Holy Spirit and those
who bear witness about Him are the children of God.
You can now see what distinguishes the Holy Spirit from all
those who came before Him. Adam, Enoch, Abraham,
Melchizedek, Moses, Elijah and our Lord Jesus Christ and
His disciples all came at their respective times, but their
power was not so feint among men. There is none to
compare with the Holy Spirit. But now the Holy Spirit has
49. come in person and the whole world feels and testifies of
the wonderful power in Brotherhood. However, the source of
this power is what confuses the world. There is power in
Brotherhood. They always confess, yet speculate that it is
not from God. My question is, if it is not from God, is it from
you? If it is from you, let us watch you demonstrate it.
Right from today and throughout this week, I am going to
analyze this topic because this is wholly a new gospel. I
enjoin everyone of you to note and commit this sermon to
memory. You can just imagine how I started it. I have
presented to you the general frames, analyzing the promises
of our Lord Jesus Christ concerning the coming of the Holy
Spirit who is the Comforter, to teach and lead every man
unto the accurate knowledge of the truth. I now conclude
that the Holy Spirit, that promised Comforter, which our Lord
Jesus Christ testified about is now manifested. The
Comforter has come in person and we are duty-bound to
testify about the Holy Spirit. Our testimonies should not be
about any prophets or angels or man. We should testify and
bear witness about the Holy Spirit who has come in person
to rule the world.
Why His Name Was Changed From Emmanuel To Jesus
It was said that a virgin shall bring forth a Son and His name
shall be called Emmanuel, meaning God with us. (Isa 7:14)
But when He was born an angel appeared and instructed
that He should be called Jesus, thereby changing it from
what was formerly revealed and believed by many. It was
that same angel who revealed that the one to be born shall
be called the Holy Son of God. Have you heard that? Can you
50. now see the great lesson to be drawn from this? Jeremiah
prophesied that a virgin shall give birth to God. Those who
heard the prophecy were indifferent since they never
believed that God could be born of a woman. And if He is
called God, how will you explain it? Would it not be casting
your precious pearls before the swine.
The name, God, is very strange. Then came another
prophecy, the child to be born shall be called the Holy Son of
God. Yet the situation was still as beclouded as the previous
one. It was yet another strange name, since the people did
not believe in the possibility of the Holy Son of God being
born of a woman. When the child was born, if He was called
the Holy Son of God, how would the people understand?
They would have turned it into a thing of mockery and
ridicule and every attempt could have been made to destroy
the child at a very tender age. That explains the timely
intervention of angel Gabriel asking for a change of name.
The child was named Jesus to avoid the untimely death that
could have prevailed. Jesus is a common name among the
Jewish society. Just like among the Efiks where we have
Okon, Etim, Effiong, Bassey and so forth.
Our Lord Jesus Christ Prophesied About The Coming Of The
Holy Spirit
God is a perfect arranger. He also revealed to Simon Peter
that Jesus the Christ was the Son of the living God. (Matt
16:16) God revealed to Abraham that to his seed shall the
Son of God be born. This promise of God was fulfilled and
made manifest in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son. When the
Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, came, He bore witness about the
51. Holy Spirit. This clearly points out to us that this is the era
of the Holy Spirit.
This gospel should be put in black and white and
disseminated to all parts of the world. It will help to educate
people about the Holy Spirit, even the Comforter. This is a
typical, significant and novel lesson, which attempts to
make us understand that the Holy Spirit has come to stay
and rule till eternity. Therefore, do not preach about any
other person, except this unique phenomenon, the Holy
Spirit.
If you are asked to show where the Holy Spirit stations, just
tell them to repent, confess their sins, accept baptism and
they shall be imbued with the Holy Spirit. Mention to them
that the Holy Spirit has come in person and does all the
works around us. Do not engage in unnecessary arguments.
Refer to Bible portions containing the promises made by our
Lord Jesus Christ concerning the coming of the Holy Spirit.
When this truth is quoted to them, they will repent. If they
get baptized, they will receive the Holy Spirit. Tell them that
the Holy Spirit is the doer of all the works of healing,
prayers, songs, testimonies and every work that we see
around us.
This explains why our Lord Jesus Christ forbade his
disciples to tell anyone that He was the Christ until His
departure. The disciples complied with the instructions and
never did. He was called Jesus, a name which was common
and could not arouse any speculations as regards His deity.
The World Does Not Believe In The Holy Spirit
52. How can you present a mirror to a blind man? It amounts to
ridicule and mockery since he cannot behold his face in the
mirror. Give not that which is holy unto dogs. Neither cast
your pearls unto the swine, lest they trample them under
their feet and turn again to attack you. If the Holy Spirit had
not revealed Himself to you, would you have known Him? If
you tell somebody that the Holy Spirit is here, they will ask
for what you mean by the Holy Spirit? He will think that you
are trying to introduce a new doctrine. Even among the
whites, they will be baffled when you speak about the
concept of the Holy Spirit.
If you ask the orthodox churches about the Holy Spirit who
is now on earth, they will tell you that the Holy Spirit ended
on the day of Pentecost. They will tell you to go away with
your doctrine of the Holy Spirit. They will also argue that
what they are doing is the real Church of God. When you tell
these Churches about Spiritual songs, they will retort that
they do not need Spiritual songs, and that your Holy Spirit
and your Spiritual songs are demonic.
He Has Revealed Himself To All
But now the reverse is the case. Everybody now knows the
Holy Spirit, because he has come in person and dwells with
men. He has revealed Himself to you. That is why you are
able to know Him, and rejoice with Him. You are now able to
tell people about Him. But if He did not reveal Himself to
you, and anybody came to you and talked about the Holy
Spirit, you would have quarreled with such a person.
I want to use the whole of the week to preach about the
53. Holy Spirit. I will preach in the same direction, throughout
the week. Tomorrow we will also focus on the Holy Spirit
until Sunday when I will reveal and expatiate on the advent
of the Holy Spirit that you all may understand and realize
that He has come in person to reveal Himself and make the
testimony of Christ fulfilled. If He did not reveal Himself to
you, you will not know Him nor will you be able to tell any
person about Him and explain that all that Our Lord Jesus
Christ spoke about has been fulfilled. The promised
Comforter, the Holy Spirit, has come to dwell with men.
A certain Indian Sister of the Hare Krishna faith came here
to pay homage to the Holy Father after reading through the
pamphlet titled "My Mission." As she came to see the Holy
Father, she asked to pay her tithe and to know about the
Holy Spirit. But I told her that I was not in the position nor
was it my duty to tell her about the Holy Spirit. I advised her
to become truly repentant and get baptized and then she will
receive the Holy Spirit who should reveal Himself to her.
Because of the kind of pride associated with the whites over
things believed to originate from the blacks, she did not
want to admit. As a white woman she gave a second thought
to it and became confused. She returned to her home only to
be directed again by the spirit to comply with the
instructions given to her, to learn about Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star and its Holy Spirit leadership.
When she could resist no further, she had to come down and
submit for baptism. After her baptism, she dared not ask any
more questions again. She no longer doubted Brotherhood
and the Holy Spirit. Even when I administered the Holy oil
54. into her eyes, ears, mouth and anointed her head with the
Holy water, she remained very quiet and never asked any
more questions.
The Blind Cannot Lead The Blind
I am blind and you are also blind. All of us are handicapped
and incapable of doing anything. Neither can we
comprehend anything. It is the Holy Spirit alone who knows
and comprehends everything. He has come and has
assumed the rulership of the world. The task ahead of you
and me is to go forth to the people of the world and preach
that the Holy Spirit has come to lead every man unto the
accurate knowledge of the truth. We are to bear witness
about no other thing than the Holy Spirit.
Moses, Adam, all the Angels and prophets had come and
gone but the Holy Spirit who has now come is the greatest
of them all. That is the reason I have told you that all of us
should go and preach only but one thing. Hold fast and
conceal in your heart that which has been revealed to you.
Whatever had been revealed to you, conceal in your heart
and tell it to no other person. If God so loves any other
person in the world, He will also reveal Himself to such a
person who will come to the same understanding as you do.
If He does not like to reveal Himself to anyone, do not bother
yourself, do not be disturbed. Let us all rise in concert and
preach the same thing.
His Name Is The Holy Spirit
He is not Jehovah. He is not the Father. He is not the Son.
55. He is the Holy Spirit who is doing all the work. Take note,
draw your ears and understand fully that His name is THE
HOLY SPIRIT and that is all you have to call Him.
Whom do you think the Father was? Who was the Son? Who
is the Holy Spirit? It is the same God. Did you know that it is
only this one being who manifests differently with new
names and at various periods?
A lot of you think that if you call Him the Holy Spirit, you
have abused Him. You think that the name Holy Spirit is too
demeaning and will not suit the mightiness and greatness
He has assumed. If you deviate from calling Him the Holy
Spirit, the testimonies borne about Him by our Lord Jesus
Christ that He will be called the Holy Spirit, will not be made
manifest. We have to call Him the Holy Spirit to fulfill the
testimony of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit Is The Doer Of All Things
The trouble with many people is that they want to know who
is directly responsible for these works, in our midst. If you
claim that these works are done by a prophet, we will fall
casualties of incoherent logic if it is asked, did the prophets
of old ever accomplish this type of work? If you claim that it
is the Son who is doing the works, can you refer to an
instance when the Son was able to do this type of work? Or
if you arrogate these mighty works to man, since the
creation of man, has any man been able to do any part of
this work? No man, no prophet, no Son had been able to do
this work except the Holy Spirit. He is the Lord of Lords and
56. Kings of Kings. Thus, the new name ascribed to Him, is Holy
Spirit. If you claim that these works are done by man, let us
ponder over it thus. "How can this same man be seen in
Calabar, Lagos, the United States, United Kingdom, India,
Germany and all other places simultaneously?" In spite of
this, many people argue that the whole affair has demonic
tendencies and influences. Contemporary happenings have
confounded human wisdom and the nakedness of the
prudent has been exposed. In their futile attempt to
comprehend, they concluded that it is beyond the realm of
human knowledge. If these works were done by man, how
will this confusion set in among the human race? Can the
wisdom of one man surpass that of the totality of the human
race?
If you claim that those works are done by man. Mention one
man who had been able to attain this omnipresent status.
Can you find the power of what you are doing? It is just like
giving seven million naira to a little child of seven and
advising him to bank it. When the child eventually appears in
the bank with such a fabulous amount, will the bank officials
not question where he had taken the money? And even if he
explains that it is his own money, they will never believe.
Further investigation will prove the true ownership of that
money.
Similarly, if you claim that it is man who does these works,
people will not let your statement go unquestioned. They
would like to verify the reliability of that assertion. How can
it be that the same person is seen simultaneously and
lavishly at all places. If you argue that these works are done
by man, how can this same man possess the traits of being
57. present in the sun, in water, in the stars and in all planes?
The same man is found doing the same works and even in
greater dimension, displaying the same supernatural
powers, in all these places.
For this reason when you claim that these works are done
by man, the world wonders what manner of man he should
be. It is for this reason that you are told to call a spade a
spade. That is also the reason why I have presented this
lesson to you in sequential order, starting with the promises
made by our Lord Jesus Christ that the Holy Spirit, even the
Comforter, will come, to teach and guide us to the accurate
knowledge of the truth. The Comforter is the name of the
Holy Spirit. Let our second lesson be read once again.
Second Bible Lesson: John 15:26
"But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send to you
from the Father, even the Spirit of truth which proceedeth
from the Father, He shall testify of Me."
Brethren, how do you find that text? It is said, "No man
speaking by the Spirit of God will ever say Jesus be cursed
and no man can say that Jesus is Lord but by the Holy
Spirit". (1 Cor 12:3). Therefore, nobody can ever call God
Father except the Son. It is only the Son who has ever called
God Father. Also no one can ever call the Son of God my Son
excepting the Father. (Matt 11:27 / Luke 10:22).You can now
see the prevalent situation in the world. If you go to these
churches inundating the world and tell them the Father has
sent me, they will ask to know who that your Father is and
58. how the Father gets to know about you. And there is no
church denomination that would ever address the Son as
Our Lord Jesus Christ, but they call Him Jesus. This explains
why the Jews demanded that the inscription "The King of
the Jews" hung above his head as He hung on the Cross,
should be changed to, "but He said, He is the King of the
Jews." Pilate insisted that what had been written had been
written, and no alteration whatsoever would be made. (John
19:22)
You Are All Christs Of God
Can you see that God Himself dwells with man. He declared
"this is my beloved Son." (Matt 3:17) And the Son, Our Lord
Jesus Christ declared, "This is my Father". That is why He
said, the Comforter whom the Father will send, when He
comes He will bear witness about me. Who had ever known,
even amongst you before now, that he is a child of God.
There had never been a time when you knew that you were
children of God until now that the Father has revealed that
ye are all Christs of God.
Hitherto, did you not claim that you were a man, who comes
from Oron or Ogoja or Ugep or Cameroon or Europe? But
today has your mouth not been shut up by the revelation of
the Father through this wonderful sermon that you are all
Christs.
What is the meaning of Brotherhood? Does Brotherhood not
mean the children of God? Brotherhood means the children
of God. Brotherhood is the unity of the children of God. That
is, oneness with God and all creations. Did you not say that
