This document is a sermon about the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. It discusses several Bible passages from the Gospels describing Jesus' resurrection and appearances to his disciples. It emphasizes that Jesus said he would not leave his followers as orphans, but would remain with them, and challenges the idea that Jesus will return in the future rather than having remained present since his resurrection. The sermon encourages living by the Spirit rather than the flesh, and trusting that through faith in Jesus, one can overcome death.
One of the greatest miracles that Christ performed on this earth was the resurrection of Lazarus from the grave, depicted in the gospel of John Chapter 11. By doing so, many of the people’s eyes were opened and they believed that Christ was in fact God. So who was this Lazarus?

God's back road of heartache can be excruciatingly painful. Sometimes is involves human betrayal, lying, deception, rejection or even being replaced. Yet, God can use even this pain redemptively. We'll look at a woman who had failed in five marriages, yet found the love and acceptance her heart had always craved.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

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.

ASCENCION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
BIBLE WITNESS
JOHN 20:14-18
Joh 20:14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself
back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was
Jesus.
Joh 20:15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou?
whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the
gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him
hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take
him away.
Joh 20:16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself,
and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
Joh 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for
I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my
brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my
Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your
God.
Joh 20:18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that
she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these
things unto her.

CERTAIN ALSO OF YOUR OWN POETS HAVE SAID, FOR
WE ARE ALSO HIS OFFSPRING. ACT 17:28
Gal 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet
not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live
in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved
me, and gave himself for me.
Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if
righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in
vain.

ROMANS 8:9-11
Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be
that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have
not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Rom 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because
of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from
the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead
shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that
dwelleth in you.

SOME MOCKED
Act 17:29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God,
we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold,
or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
Act 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at;
but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
5. Act 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he
will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom
he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto
all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
Act 17:32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the

7. DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE RESURRECTION OF OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST?
*THERE IS THE DIVISION OF LABOUR AND NO PERSON
ENCROACHES ON THE POSITION OF OTHERS.
Who Believes In The Resurrection?
Our Lord Jesus Christ has advised that when you
make a feast, you should invite the poor, the
maimed, the lame and the blind, in order that you
would be blessed, for they cannot compensate you.
You would be compensated at the resurrection of the
just.
About 99 percent of the population of the world does
not believe in the resurrection. If you were to hope
on resurrection then you would not have pitied
yourself about death because death does not exist.
But do what is good knowing that whatever you do,
you are sowing for yourself.
THE DISCIPLES STRUGGLED AMONG THEMSELVES WHO
WOULD BE THE GREATEST AMONGST THEM. BUT SINCE
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST TOOK HIS PHYSICAL EXISTENCE
FROM THIS EARTH PLAIN, WHICH OF THEM STEPPED INTO
HIS SHOES? NO PERSON TOOK OVER FROM HIM. EACH
PERSON IS OCCUPYING HIS OWN POSITION. THERE IS THE
DIVISION OF LABOUR AND NO PERSON ENCROACHES ON
THE POSITION OF OTHERS. THE GOLDEN TEXT SHOULD
NOW BE READ.
8. Golden Text: John 14:18
"I will not leave you comfortless; I am coming unto you".
WHAT IS READ TO YOU IS QUITE PLAIN. BUT OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST WAS SPEAKING IN THE PRESENT
CONTINUOUS TENSE. "I AM COMING BACK TO YOU." HE DID
NOT SAY THAT HE WILL COME BACK TO YOU. IT IS
THEREFORE, ERRONEOUS FOR YOU TO PRAY THAT OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST SHOULD COME BACK AGAIN. TO
WHERE DID HE GO? HE SAYS, "I AM COMING BACK." HE
HAS NOT INDICATED HIS RETURN IN THE FUTURE.
A CHALLENGE TO THE WORLD BY PROCLAIMINGTHAT
CHRIST HAS NOT GONE ANYWHERE SINCE HIS
RESURRECTION:
READ THE THREE TEXTS TO THE IGNORANT AND THE
FOOLS. SHOW THEM TO ALL THE INHABITANTS OF THE
WORLD BECAUSE I DECLARE THIS FROM HIGH HEAVENS.
WHEN THEY HOLD THE BELIEF THAT HE WILL COME BACK
AGAIN, I CHALLENGE THEM.
He says it was expedient that He went away, because if He
did not go away, the Comforter would not come to you; but if
He went away, He would send the Comforter unto you. He
says again: "except a grain of corn falls on the ground and
dies, it remains alone. But if it dies it brings forth much fruit.
He says finally in the golden text: "I will not leave you
comfortless, I am coming unto you". This means that our
Lord Jesus Christ has not left us to even one inch. He has
been with mankind since His resurrection and the Father is
9. doing His work. However, a great many people still feel that
He is in the sky, while others say until He comes back again.
And I ask you where has He ever been to?
Apart From Our Lord Jesus Christ, No Person Grants Your
Request
HAS HE NOT ADVISED THAT WHATEVER WE ASK THE
FATHER THROUGH HIS NAME, HE WILL SURELY DO IT FOR
US. HAS HE EVER ADVISED YOU TO ASK THROUGH ANY
OTHER NAME OR THROUGH ANY OTHER THING? BUT HE
SAYS, "IF YOU SHALL ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL
DO IT." (JOHN 14:13). CAN SUCH A STATEMENT BE MADE
BY A DEAD PERSON OR SOMEBODY WHO TRAVELS TO A
DISTANT PLACE? Ask your carnal father for anything
whether he will do it for you. Ask the government for
anything you like, whether it will be done for you. But ask
Him, He is a living person, and He will grant your request.
You do not read your Bible, and if even you read, you do not
understand it. Our Lord Jesus Christ does not die forever. Do
you also know that His ascension means descent? The day
He ascended into heaven was the day He came down to the
earth. Similarly, when He descended to the earth in His
carnal manifestation, He ascended into heaven.
The story of our Lord Jesus Christ is not a simple one. The
time of his birth was the time of his death and the time of
His death was the time He regenerated, full of power,
endowed with wisdom and powers, having power to rule the
world.
By The Obedience Of One Shall Many Be Made Righteous.
(Rom 5:19)
10. Can you notice the folly of man? Caiaphas had told the
people that they knew nothing at all or would they consider
that it was expedient for us, that one man should die for the
people than the whole world to perish. (John 11:49-54).
Our Lord Jesus Christ was of the opinion that it was
expedient that He should die because that meant coming up
again. Brethren, examine critically which of the actions
taken against our Lord Jesus Christ was evil. That of
Caiaphas or that of those who arrested Him and His death.
Because if these things did not take place, Our Lord Jesus
Christ could not have come into the world.
Regeneration: To Save It Means Liberty
When you are in the flesh you are in a confinement, like
somebody's movement being restricted by the four walls of a
prison cell. There are certain places you cannot go or reach.
But when you resurrect and become regenerated, you travel
to any place at all without a passport and visa.
You can enter the flesh as well as the Spirit; enter water and
the fire also. It is quite easy to enter everywhere. Can you
not realize that He is the doer of the work at this end of time
in the world? When I tell you that I am not the doer but He,
you always laugh.
DO NOT GAZE AT THE SUN NOR ON THE MOON; DO NOT GO
TO INDIA OR BRITAIN. IF SOMEBODY TELLS YOU THAT HE
IS IN THE MOON, DO NOT GO BECAUSE HE HAS COME
BACK, SINCE THEN; AND HE HAS BEEN HERE DOING HIS
11. WORK EVERY TIME, EVERYWHERE. HE IS NEVER SICK,
DOES NOT EXPERIENCE PAINS, HAS NO PROBLEMS.
Christ Is Omnipresent
Even the three days He was supposed to have been in the
grave, He did not rest. He spent the three days destroying
death and pains of death, collecting the keys of hades and of
death and taking complete dominion over hades as the King
of heaven. He also released all the members bound.
Do you say again that our Lord Jesus Christ is in the sky,
because He is always in the sky. He is in the sun, the moon,
in the forest, inside water. He is in your heart; He is in your
house walking majestically and boldly. CALL EVERY TIME
WITHOUT GETTING TIRED. HE IS HUMAN, HE IS THE SPIRIT,
HE IS FIRE AND AIR AND WATER, HE IS ALL AND IN ALL.
Flesh And Blood Cannot Serve God. (1 Cor 15:50/ Matt 16:17)
Do not be proud that you are doing the work. It is our Lord
Jesus Christ who does the work. Do not be conceited that
somebody is capable of doing everything. No flesh and blood
can do the work apart from our Lord Jesus Christ. That is
why you are advised to mortify the flesh and live by the
spirit. If you mortify the flesh, you will be one Spirit with
Him. THOUGH WE HAVE KNOWN OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
AFTER THE FLESH, YET NOW AND HENCEFORTH WE KNOW
HIM NO MORE LIKE THAT. (2 COR 5:16)
You only need to refrain from drinking, fornication, adultery,
falsehood, theft and the rest of the vices and surrender
yourself to Him, see Him, serve Him and dwell with Him and
12. He will gain dominion over all and He will be seen lavishly
everywhere.
Brotherhood Is The Kingdom Of God!
Do you not remember that people in the world address you
as witches and wizards? This is based on the little faith you
have, because you are being seen physically everywhere.
Two or three persons confess they see you at the same
time, in their houses, at the hospital, you converse with
them, whether they close their eyes or not and so they
conclude that yours is not a church but one of the most
powerful witchcraft cults. They see you both physically and
spiritually; you are being seen in the moon and in the stars,
in water and everywhere. That is why no matter what
explanations you put forward, they do not seem convinced
that yours is not a secret society but insist that you belong
to a very powerful cult.
You Work Harder After Regeneration!
Many of you argue that you have gone overseas. I tell you,
you have been travelling down there; you are entering inside
water and loosening those that are bound in chains, you are
climbing to great heights and loosening the ropes. You are
entering everywhere and releasing all those who are
chained; and liberating all those in bondage. You go to the
hospitals and liberate those affected by the machinations of
the evil ones. That is why they conclude that your witchcraft
is the most powerful in the world.
Those who are Christ's have crucified their flesh with the
13. affections and lusts, and are now living in the spirit. (Gal
5:24). This is a spiritual warfare. You need no candle or
incense or perfume or any other thing. But wherever you go
to, people are always petrified with such fear and
astonishment that they openly say that the wizards and
witches have arrived again. The spirits will reveal to the
people what you are; and the elemental spirits of the
universe will bow down to you.
Mortify The Flesh With Its Lusts And Affections! (Rom 8:13).
Have you not been confronted with the question, to what
society do you belong? As small as you are, if you are seen
in the spirit, people would be bamboozled. One person alone
to enter Calabar would ward off all evils and render all
charms useless. That is why it sounds unbelievable to them
that you should be a man of God. The world does not believe
but insist that you are a witch or a wizard. For the flesh lusts
against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh, and these
are contradictory to the other, so that you cannot do the
things that you should. (Rom 8:5-8). If, therefore, you mortify
the flesh, you will live in the spirit.
THE DOCTRINES DELIVERED TO YOU, HAVE NEVER
EXISTED ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD. THIS MARKS
THE END OF THE PERIOD WHEN EVER-LASTING GOSPELS
ARE GIVEN TO YOU.
Brethren, I do not intend to be tedious unto you, one stroke
of the cane is sufficient for the wise. Those who have ears,
let them hear. May God bless His Words. Amen.
THANK YOU HOLY FATHER

Head Of The Universe, on:-"THE MYSTERY OF DEATH"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….……
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME
YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.
(HEBREWS13:8)
Because it is said: HE CAME UNTO HIS OWN BUT HIS OWN
RECEIVED HIM NOT. Did His brothers receive Him? DID
THEY NOT REJECT 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.
15. 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. 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).
AFTER BAPTISM HE BESTOWS THE HOLY SPIRIT ON YOU
AND YOU 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?
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.
16. 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, “Rise,
take up thy bed and walk.” And immediately the man
was made whole. Who else could do that work?
Since then, who else 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?
17. 2.
HIS CHILDREN ARE THERE TO DO THESE
THINGS. IT IS AN INSULT FOR HIM TO DO
THAT KIND OF 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
18. 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
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
19. 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 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.

ASCENSION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
ASCENSION: WHERE IS THE FATHER? HE DWELLS WITH
MANKIND ALWAYS.
BIBLE WITNESS:
Saul, Saul why persecutest thou me? Paul answered , “who
art thou Lord? And He said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth,
whom thou persecutest. And they that were with me saw
the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of
him that spoke to me.” (Acts9:3-5)
2. John16:27-28
For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved
me, and have believed that I came out from God. I came
from the Father into the world :again I leave the world and
go to the Father.
THE PROMISED COMFORTER
3. JOHN 16:7
"NEVERTHELESS I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, IT IS EXPEDIENT FOR YOU
THAT I GO AWAY: FOR IF I DO NOT GO AWAY, THE COMFORTER WILL
NOT COME UNTO YOU, BUT IF I DEPART, I WILL SEND HIM UNTO
YOU."
AND UNDERSTAND THIS, IT IS ONLY THE KING WHO KNOWS THE
SECRET OF HIS KINGDOM.. IF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST DID NOT
DEPART UNTO THE FATHER, THE COMFORTER COULD NOT HAVE
BEEN SENT.
21. NOW THE QUESTIONS ARE: WHO IS THE CHRIST? WHO IS THE
COMFORTER? AND WHO IS THE HOLY SPIRIT? THEY ARE THE SAME.
THEY, THROUGH REINCARNATION EXIST AS THE SAME BEING,
THOUGH WITH DIFFERENT NAMES. CHRIST IS THE COMFORTER AND
ALSO IS THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHO IS THE FATHER.
IN THE ERA OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, IT WAS NEITHER PETER,
PAUL, NOR JOHN WHO PREACHED THE GOSPEL, BUT OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST. TO DAY HE IS THE DOING ALL THE WORKS IN THIS
ADVENT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
AND, LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAY, EVEN UNTO
THE END OF THE WORLD. AMEN.
*** HE NEVER ASCENDED TO THE SKY AS PROFESSED. HE ONLY
INFORMED THE APOSTLES THAT HE WAS GOING TO THE
FATHER. WHERE IS THE FATHER? HE DWELLS WITH
MANKIND ALWAYS.
READ:John 18:28/Mark 16:19:20/Matthew
28:18-20
IN TIMES PAST, THE NAME OF GOD WAS NOT MENTIONED AT WILL.
THIS IS BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT WAS SAID TO COME AND
LEAD MAN TO THE ACCURATE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH (JOHN 16:
12-15), HAD NOT YET MANIFESTED. TODAY WITH THE
MANIFESTATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT (THE FATHER), EVERYTHING IS
DIRECTLY CONTROLLED BY HIM..

WATER FROM THE FRIDGE IS POISONOUS FOR YOUR BODY.
THIS SERMON IS GOING TO SHAKE THE WORLD.
24. THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL
THE ABODE OF GOD
FIRST BIBLE LESSON: 1 CORINTHIANS 6:14
“And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up
us by his own power.”
SECOND BIBLE LESSON: JOHN 17:2
“As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should
give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.”
GOLDEN TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 3:9
“For we are laborers together with God: ye are God’s
husbandry, ye are God’s building.”
THE REAL HOUSE OF GOD:
Dear Brethren, I am giving you this sermon with all amounts
of pity, and my eyes are filled with tears. There is much
complaint and murmuring everywhere. Sadness has so much
increased. What we are going to reveal has eaten up the
very existence of all human beings. Nobody in the entire
world has realized this truth. This situation is really
pathetic. NO ONE HAS PRACTICALLY REALIZED THAT
HUMAN BEINGS ARE THE HOUSES OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD.
HE HAS BUILT YOU AS HIS RESIDENCE. ADAM WAS THE
PHYSICAL HOUSE OF GOD WHICH HE BUILT FOR HIMSELF,
25. BUT ADAM DEFILED THIS HOUSE. So God had to abandon it.
Adam was that Garden of Eden which was also abandoned.
Right now, God has no place of abode among men. This
is because from the oldest to the youngest persons, all men
are defiled. After Adam and Eve had defiled the house of God
on earth, God decided never to visit the earth again. AS A
RESULT OF THIS, HUMAN BEINGS SUFFERED FROM
PLAGUES, AND TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS UNTIL THE
ADVENT OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WHO CAME TO SHED
HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD FOR THE TOTAL REMISSION OF OUR
SINS. IT WAS AFTER THIS PURIFICATION OF THE HOUSE OF
GOD THAT THE ALMIGHTY DECIDED TO COME DOWN.
Even our Lord Jesus Christ had no house because every
human being was defiled. That was why when He, Christ,
was confronted by a man who wanted to follow Him, He
reminded the man that: “Foxes have holes, and birds have
their nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his
head.” (Luke 9:58).
THIS SERMON HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MONEY, WEALTH,
WISDOM, OR ANY OTHER MUNDANE ACQUISITION, BUT THE
HOUSE OF GOD. IT ALSO PORTRAYS HUMAN BEINGS AS
THE DWELLING PLACE OF GOD, THE GARDEN OF EDEN.
MAN IS ALSO GOD’S HUSBANDRY. He did not create Adam
and Eve for fornication or for any other sin. He built them
just as we human beings build our houses. A house therefore
cannot decide for its own self because you build it for a
special purpose, and that is to live in it. It is in your house
26. that you stay to plan on what to do. Unfortunately, Adam and
Eve deprived God of His dwelling place by defiling the house
that God built. Before they defiled the house of God, God
used to perform wonders through them. They were not
aware of the fact that God was using them to accomplish
many things. When they derailed by eating the forbidden
fruit, the abode of God in them was lost. Upon all the
pleading and crying of Adam, God never went into the house
again. God does not dwell in a filthy environment. He has
nothing to do with such a place.
Now who would have told Adam that he was the house of
God when He, God, had abandoned him. Who would have
told Cain and Abel not to commit fornication since they were
empty buildings? What about Enoch, Melchizedec and others
who came along later. They were all victims of
circumstances because they did not know.
Have you seen how THE GREAT FALL OF HUMANITY
happened? This is why I give you this gospel with tears in
my eyes. I do not know what to do with this world anymore,
because it seems all that man is out to do is to defile God’s
abode.
This is shown in the rate at which even little children get
involved in fornication and adultery, thereby defiling the
house of God. WHERE THEN DO YOU WANT GOD TO DWELL?
HE HAS COME; BUT NO HOUSE IS WORTHY FOR HIM TO
SETTLE IN. SOME OF YOU WHO WISH TO DO THIS OR THAT
FOR GOD KNOW THAT YOU HAVE NOTHING TO DO THAN TO
27. PURIFY HIS HOUSE FOR HIM TO DWELL IN. YOU ARE GOD’S
HOUSE. YOU ARE GOD’S HUSBANDRY AND GOD’S
DWELLING PLACE. YOUR ONLY WORK THEREFORE IS TO
KEEP HIS HOUSE CLEAN. IF YOU KEEP HIS HOUSE CLEAN,
HE ENTERS INTO YOU AND ACCOMPLISHES GREAT WORKS
THROUGH YOU AND FOR YOU. YOU ARE HIS TOOL WITH
WHICH HE WORKS.
THE SITUATION COULD BE COMPARED TO A TORTOISE
WHICH MOVES ABOUT WITH ITS OWN HOUSE. MAN IS THE
HOUSE WHERE THE HOLY SPIRIT DWELLS AND MOVES
ABOUT. THE MOMENT YOU DEFILE THAT HOUSE OF GOD
YOU ARE FINISHED. YOU ARE WORTHLESS. I AM WEEPING
SERIOUSLY FOR THIS GENERATION.
SINCE 1954 THE TRUE TEACHINGS OF OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST HAS CONTINUOUSLY BEEN
PREACHED IN THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS
AND STAR WORLD.
IF THE PARENTS OF THE CHILDREN BORN SINCE THEN
HAD COME BY THIS TRUTH AND PRACTICED THESE
TEACHINGS, THE CHILDREN WOULD NOW BE WORTHY
VESSELS OF GOD.
GOD WOULD HAVE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE AND HOUSES BY
NOW. All parents are busy training their children
for higher education, business, and marriage.
Nothing is considered about keeping the house of
28. God clean. For that reason, people are defiled from
childhood to adulthood. THEN, THE QUESTION IS WHERE
IS THE GARDEN OF EDEN? YOU ARE ALL WITNESSES THAT
ANY PLACE A MAN VISITS, THE FIRST THING HE REQUEST
FOR IS WHERE TO STAY DURING THE PERIOD OF HIS STAY.
YOU ALWAYS HAVE A PLAN TO GET A DWELLING PLACE AS
A TOP PRIORITY IN YOUR LIFE. IF YOU AS AN ORDINARY
HUMAN BEING CAN HAVE SUCH A PLAN FOR YOURSELF,
HOW MUCH MORE GOD?
Have you stopped for one second to ask
yourself where God dwells? Is God not worthy of a
dwelling place? YOU ARE HIS HOUSE, GARDEN AND
HUSBANDRY. ALL THAT GOD HAS AS HIS PROPERTY IS
VESTED IN YOU. NOW THAT YOU HAVE DEFILED THE
HOUSE OF GOD WHERE DO YOU WANT HIM TO DWELL
WHEN YOU KNOW QUITE WELL THAT HE ABHORS FILTH?
WHERE DO YOU WANT HIM TO STORE HIS TOOLS? WHAT
DO YOU EXPECT GOD TO DO?
He instructed Adam and Eve to eat of every other
fruit except the forbidden fruit. When Adam and Eve
disobeyed God, we blame them, and we boast that
we would have done better if given the opportunity.
Is the whole thing not repeating itself in this
generation? It is even worse today. Right now
children, five years old have already been defiled. At
29. the age of ten such children have already graduated
into real filth and worthlessness. Since God did not
condone Adam and Eve, do you think He can
condone those of you in this generation? Have you
not seen God’s anger displayed in the rate of deaths,
sufferings, sicknesses, poverty and diverse
tribulations all over the world. These are the direct
results of man’s pollution of God’s house.
The people today say that God does not exist; or that
He does not love them. This is so because all His houses
have been defiled by them. God has no place to dwell. So,
because of this they neither see His presence nor
experience His love.
GOD HAS NO OTHER PARTNER BUT MAN. HE DOES
NOT LIVE IN ANY OTHER THING BUT IN HUMAN BEINGS.
HOW THEN CAN YOU FEEL HIS PRESENCE OR HIS LOVE,
WHEN YOU HAVE DRIVEN HIM OUT OF YOUR BODY WHICH
IS HIS HOUSE? GOD MOVES WITH US TO ANY PLACE WE
MAY GO TO. HE DOES NOT EXIST IN VACUUM. IN A
SITUATION IN WHICH THERE IS NO REAL HOUSE (BODY) TO
ACCOMMODATE GOD, IT APPEARS AS IF GOD DOES NOT
EXIST. WHENEVER A MAN IS PRESENT, THE WORK OF GOD
WILL SURELY MANIFEST.
I am only consoled in the sense that the situation is
even better than in the era of Elijah who lamented of
30. loneliness. In this era, there are still many virgins
existing on the earth plane. HOWEVER MY EMPHASIS IS
ON THE MEMBERS OF THIS FOLD OF BROTHERHOOD OF
THE CROSS AND STAR WHO HAVE HEARD DAILY FROM THE
FATHER THAT MAN IS THE ONLY HOUSE THAT GOD HAS. I
PITY YOU MEMBERS SO MUCH; FOR WHEN YOU HEAR
THESE INSTRUCTIONS YOU LAUGH OVER THEM. YOUR
FLESH WAS MADE FOR GOD TO RULE OVER. YOUR FLESH,
BLOOD, BONES, LIFE AND, IN FACT, YOUR ENTIRE BODY, IS
FOR GOD. IN THIS WAY, EVERLASTING LIFE COULD REACH
ALL OTHER HUMAN BEINGS IN THE UNIVERSE. THAT IS
WHY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SAID: “I AM THE VINE, YE
ARE THE BRANCHES; HE THAT ABIDETH IN ME AND I IN
HIM, THE SAME BRINGETH FORTH MUCH FRUIT: FOR
WITHOUT ME YE CAN DO NOTHING.” (John 15:5).
In churches, schools, towns, market squares and
all over the world fornication is at its peak. The
entire world is filled with fornicators. Where do you
expect God to live? Remember what Our Lord Jesus
Christ said: “As thou hast given him power over all
flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as
thou hast given him.” (John 17:2).
Where is the flesh that He has to rule over in
order to change man for His divine purpose? Can you
now see that these things that make you to laugh,
31. rejoice, and be happy are the very cause of God’s
sadness? That same thing is the cause of all your
sufferings. Whenever you mate with a woman, both
of you are defiled before God. His house is therefore
soiled. THIS IS WHY THE WHOLE WORLD IS LAMENTING
ABOUT THE ABSENCE OF GOD. YOU ARE GOD’S OFFICE,
AND HOUSE. HE MADE IT TO SUIT HIS PURPOSE FOR
CREATING MAN. THAT WAS WHY HE SAID: “LET US MAKE
MAN IN OUR OWN IMAGE AFTER OUR OWN LIKENESS: AND
LET THEM HAVE DOMINION OVER THE FISH OF THE SEA,
AND OVER THE FOWL OF THE AIR, AND OVER THE CATTLE,
AND OVER ALL THE EARTH, AND OVER EVERY CREEPING
THING THAT CREEPETH UPON THE EARTH.”
(Genesis 1:26).
On the contrary, man has hopelessly defiled and
destroyed the house of God. When Adam and Eve
committed fornication there was no other sacrifice
acceptable to God to atone for this act. ONLY THE
PRECIOUS BLOOD OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS TO BE
USED TO WASH AWAY THEIR SIN. NOW THAT YOU ARE
STILL COMMITTING FORNICATION WHAT ELSE WOULD BE
USED TO WASH YOUR SIN?
YOU CAN RECALL THAT WHEN JOHN THE BAPTIST CAME
HE NEITHER MARRIED NOR COMMITTED FORNICATION. HE
ATE NOTHING COOKED NOR DRANK ANY STRONG DRINK.
HE KEPT HIMSELF AS THE HOUSE OF GOD, AND THE
32. GARDEN OF EDEN. ALL THE WORKS DONE WERE ACTUALLY
NOT DONE BY JOHN BUT BY GOD, WHO DID ALL HIS WORK
THROUGH JOHN. SINCE JOHN ALLOWED HIMSELF TO BE
USED BY GOD, HE WAS USED BY GOD TO WROUGHT GREAT
DEEDS. THAT IS WHY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SAID:
“VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, AMONG THEM THAT ARE BORN
OF WOMEN, THERE HATH NOT RISEN A GREATER THAN
JOHN THE BAPTIST: NOTWITHSTANDING HE THAT IS
LEAST IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS GREATER THAN
HE.” (Matthew 11:11).
SINCE HE IS A MERCIFUL MASTER, THOSE TWELVE
APOSTLES WHO FOLLOWED HIM FORSOOK THEIR WIVES
FOR THREE AND A HALF YEARS. BY THAT SINGLE ACT
THEY WERE CONSECRATED. THAT WAS WHY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THE RESURRECTION THEY WERE BAPTIZED IN THE
HOLY SPIRIT. FROM THE DAY THEY RECEIVED THE HOLY
GHOST NONE OF THEM DEFILED HIMSELF AGAIN. FOR
THAT REASON GOD USED THEM TO ACCOMPLISH GREAT
WORKS; AND WHATEVER THEY COMMANDED IN THE NAME
OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, CAME TO MANIFESTATION.
Even Paul who did not see Our Lord Jesus Christ
physically refrained from fornication, adultery, and
other sins from the day the Spirit caught him on the
way to Damascus. Unfortunately, after Peter and the
other Apostles died, fornication continued among the
unbelievers. So, once again, there was no more, even
33. a single house, clean enough for God to dwell among
men. That is why many claim that the Holy Spirit
ceased to exist with the exit of the Apostles of
Christ. Where do you want Him to live, when all His
houses are defiled? I HAVE NOT MADE MENTION OF
THOSE RELIGIONS WHICH BELIEVE IN MARRYING SEVERAL
WIVES THEREBY LEGALIZING FORNICATION AND
ADULTERY. SUCH PEOPLE ARE ONLY SEEKING FOR DEATH
AND PERDITION.
THE GENERATION OF REVELATION:
When these religions started, the Holy Spirit was not
yet personified. It was the era of other personalities.
NOW IS THE ERA OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND WHAT WOULD
YOU GIVE AS YOUR EXCUSE?
THIS IS THE GENERATION OF REVELATIONS AND THE LAST
ADVENT. THIS IS THE ERA IN WHICH GOD HAS COME TO
REVEAL HIS GLORY AND HIS KINGDOM.
IF A FORNICATOR TELLS YOU HE CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING
GOOD, DO NOT BELIEVE HIM. A FORNICATOR HAD DEFILED
THE HOUSE OF GOD, AND IS THEREFORE, AN ABANDONED
PROPERTY. NOTHING GOOD CAN COME FROM SUCH A
PERSON. ALL HE DOES IS TO PERPETUATE EVIL. ALL THE
EVIL SPIRITS DWELL IN HIM. THEY USE HIM TO TELL LIES
AND COMMIT ALL OTHER VICES. NOW IT IS NOT TOO LATE
TO CHANGE.
34. AS HE, GOD, THE OWNER OF THE HOUSE HAS COME,
REPENT, AND PURIFY HIS HOUSE FOR HIM TO COME AND
DWELL IN. THE SITUATION IS REALLY PATHETIC. THE
FATHER IS THE CONTROLLER OF THE KEY; AND IF HE DOES
NOT DO ANYTHING, NO PERSON CAN DO IT. WE HAVE EYES
BUT WE CANNOT SEE, AND EARS BUT WE CANNOT HEAR.
HOWEVER WHENEVER HE ENTERS INTO THE HOUSE, HE
ACTIVATES ALL THE AREAS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. AS
FAR AS HE IS NOT RESIDING IN YOU ALL YOUR EFFORTS
ARE USELESS AND VOID.
ALL YOUR THOUGHTS AND PLANS ABOUT BUILDING A
CATHEDRAL, BUYING A CAR AND BUYING CLOTHES FOR
GOD ARE NOT NECESSARY, SO LONG AS YOU ARE FILTHY.
FIRST OF ALL, SANCTIFY AND PURIFY YOUR BODY FOR
GOD TO DWELL IN BEFORE YOU CAN THINK OF OTHER
THINGS. ALL THE ANGELS ARE LIVING IN MAN, AND THEY
WORK THROUGH MAN. ALL POWERS, WISDOM AND OTHER
CREATIONS OF GOD ARE IN MAN. NOW HAS MAN NOT
DEFILED THE DWELLING PLACE OF GOD?
When God did not detect black spots in Adam and
Eve, they were allowed to inhabit the Garden of
Eden. I know a lot of members in here in Brotherhood
of the Cross and Star have started understanding
themselves. THE ONLY WAY TO SERVE GOD IS BY
ABSTAINING FROM FORNICATION, AND ANY OTHER ACT
WHICH CAN DEFILE YOU. DO YOU THINK THERE IS
ANYTHING WHICH YOU CAN DO FOR GOD? YOU HAVE NO
35. POWER TO DO ANYTHING EXCEPT GOD DWELLS IN YOU.
GOD IS THE ONLY ONE DOING ALL THE WORK ALL OVER
THE WORLD. IT IS ONLY THE KING WHO KNOWS THE
SECRET OF HIS KINGDOM.
Upon all the churches, universities, scientist, and
others who claim to be wise and knowledgeable in
all things, have you known this fact that man is the
house and farm of God, and this house must be kept
completely clean? In spite of the dramatic increase
in the population of the whole world, they are all
defiled. All the churches are doing nothing good
because all the people are defiled. MAN AND GOD
MOVE TOGETHER TO WROUGHT GREAT WORKS WHEN THE
BODY OF THE MAN IS NOT DEFILED. IF MANKIND HAD
KNOWN THIS AND SANCTIFIED HIMSELF, THEN PEACE,
LOVE, PROSPERITY, AND GOODNESS WOULD HAVE
DESCENDED ON ALL THE CREATIONS OF GOD.
AN EVIL BODY BEGETS EVIL:
ALL YOUR THOUGHTS AND WORDS ARE HOLY WHEN
GOD IS DWELLING IN YOU. IF YOU ARE SANCTIFIED YOU
WOULD ALWAYS BE HEALTHY. THOSE WHO HAVE DEFILED
THEIR BODIES ARE ALWAYS THINKING AND SPEAKING
EVIL BECAUSE WHAT IS IN THEM IS THE EVIL SPIRIT. SUCH
PEOPLE CAN NEVER SEE NOR BELIEVE THAT GOD EXISTS
ANYWHERE. THEY WOULD ALWAYS SEE DEATH, MERMAIDS,
GHOSTS, AND DEMONS AT ALL TIMES EVEN IN THEIR
36. SLEEP BECAUSE THEIR BODIES ARE DEFILED. SO GOD HAS
DEPARTED FROM SUCH HOUSES, AND NOTHING GODLY
CAN COME OUT FROM THERE.
THE SOLUTION:
Anyway, it is very easy for you to invite God back into
you by forsaking the act of fornication. The only thing God
wants from you is His house which is your body. He does not
need your cars, houses, money, or any form of mundane
wealth. Have you not seen the position of the world due to
its ignorance? God does not want you to sing, dance, preach
or do anything in His name as far as you are still defiled and
filthy. Purify yourself first. When God comes in, and lives in
you, you will surely bear fruits of repentance. You will be
joyous at all times. God has kept all things in their proper
positions. He does His things at the appropriate time.
Wherever God places you,
be content with such a position because you cannot change
the situation, and you cannot make any suggestion to God.
THAT IS WHY I HAVE COMMANDED THAT THE WONDERFUL
CHILD IN ZAIRE BE BROUGHT TO ME WITHOUT DELAY. ANY
PERSON WHO HAS GIVEN HIS BODY TO GOD IS ABOVE ALL
HUMAN BEING. NO HUMAN BEING CAN COMPARE HIMSELF
TO SUCH A PERSON BECAUSE GOD IS IN HIM.
IN THE ERA OF JOHN THE BAPTIST, WHO WAS LIKE
HIM? ALSO NO ONE COULD COMPARE HIMSELF
WITH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. THIS IS BECAUSE
37. GOD WAS IN THEM, AND HE DID ALL THE
WONDERFUL WORKS.
YOU HAVE PROBLEMS AFTER YOU HAVE PRAYED BECAUSE
YOUR BODY WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE GOD’S HOUSE IS
EMPTY. IF GOD DWELLS IN YOU, YOU WOULD NOT LACK
ANY GOOD THING.
You can see that the entire world is blind. Can you
not see that the entire world is ignorant and stupid?
Has it not dawned on you now that nobody knows
the way of truth in the world? Their doctrine has it
that God is a Spirit in the sky and in the high
heavens. Well, you blind teacher, know right now
that
GOD IS DWELLING IN MAN. SO LONG AS YOU GIVE YOUR
BODY TO HIM YOU HAVE AUTOMATICALLY BECOME THE
GARDEN OF EDEN AND THE ABODE OF GOD WHO DWELLS
IN YOU. WHATEVER IS DONE WITHOUT GOD IS
COUNTERFEIT. ALL THE WORKS OF THE WORLD, WITHOUT
GOD, ARE CONDEMNED. WITHOUT GOD NONE CAN BE
SAVED. NO PEACE, NO RIGHTEOUSNESS, OR NO GOODNESS
IS FOUND ON EARTH WITHOUT GOD. THIS IS BECAUSE IT IS
WRITTEN: “Except the Lord build the house, they labor in
vain that build
it, and except the Lord watches over the city, the watchman
waketh but in vain.” (Psalm 127:1).
38. STOP BLEACHING YOUR SKIN WITH ALL SORTS OF
COSMETICS. IT IS SAID: “HOWBEIT, THE MOST HIGH
DWELLETH NOT IN TEMPLES BUILT BY HANDS; AS SAITH
THE PROPHET, “HEAVEN IS MY THRONE AND THE EARTH IS
MY FOOTSTOOL; WHAT HOUSE WILL YE BUILD ME? SAITH
THE LORD: OR WHAT IS THE PLACE OF MY REST? HATH
NOT MY HAND MADE ALL THESE THINGS?” (Acts 7:48-50).
GOD DOES NOT DWELL IN A HOUSE BUILT BY MAN.
THE HEAVENS IS GOD’S THRONE WHILE THE EARTH IS HIS
FOOTSTOOL. THEREFORE WHAT TYPE OF HOUSE CAN YOU
BUILD FOR THE ALMIGHTY GOD? WERE ALL THESE THINGS
NOT MADE BY HIM? YOU STUBBORN AND UNCIRCUMCISED
IN THE HEART. YOU REFUSE TO OPEN YOUR EARS TO
LISTEN, AND YOU HAVE HARDENED YOUR HEART AS YOU
CONTINUALLY FIGHT AGAINST THE WILL OF GOD.
This sermon is a lamentation for the inhabitants of the
world. Repeat the First Bible Lesson.
FIRST BIBLE LESSON: 1 CORINTHIANS 6:14
“And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up
us by his own power.”
God did not make this flesh for fornication and
adultery but for Him to dwell and rule. If God is
possessing and leading you, you cannot be old. You
would neither be in lack, suffer from hunger, nor
perish, for God will take you to the land of Promise.
39. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST DID NOT HAVE PROBLEMS
BECAUSE HE WAS ONE WITH THE FATHER. HE EVEN MADE
THIS KNOWN TO PEOPLE:
“I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE.” (John 10:30).
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS THE GARDEN OF EDEN
WHERE EVERYTHING WAS IN ABUNDANCE. THAT WAS WHY
EVERY WORD HE SAID MANIFESTED. DID PEOPLE KNOW
THAT HE WAS GOD? HE ALSO MADE IT CLEAR THAT EVERY
WORD SPOKEN BY HIM WAS ACTUALLY SPOKEN BY GOD,
AND THAT HE COULD DO NOTHING OF HIMSELF. THAT IS
TRUE, AND IT WAS HOW GOD PLANNED FOR ALL HUMAN
BEINGS.
Even as He told Adam that since they defiled
the house He would reduce them to the dust, and
they would be disgraced. Have you not seen how the
world is suffering, the world is disgraced and the
world is being demoted? No matter the status of a
person, he is in the end disgraced by forces beyond
his control.
When you have defiled the temple of God (your
body), and you are consequently disgraced, do not
turn around to weep because you are good for
nothing.
40. I HAVE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE THAT MY MISSION ON
EARTH IS REALLY GREAT, AND THAT I HAVE NOT STARTED
TO UNFOLD IT TO THE WORLD. MY WORDS ARE TRUE AND
ANYONE WHO PRACTICES MY WORDS IS SAVED. ANYONE
WHO REJECTS MY WORDS IS SURELY HEADING FOR
DAMNATION AND PERDITION.
IF YOU HAD KNOWN THAT GOD DWELLS IN YOUR
CHILDREN, YOU WOULD HAVE BROUGHT THEM UP IN THE
WAY OF THE LORD SO THAT THEY WOULD BE GREAT IN
SPIRIT.
Instead you are solely concerned with their
academic qualification. Is that what they came into
this world to do? The moment the spirit of error
takes possession of you, all that you do becomes
evil. There were many who were strictly restricted
from committing fornication and immorality. In the
olden days, in Israel anyone caught in the act was
stoned to death instantly. In those days the
consequence for fornication was not explained to
them as it is done today. It was not the tradition of
God to communicate to them in plain terms but to
teach them in parables. This is the fullness of time,
and this is also a very lucky generation.
It was written of this era that when the
Comforter, even the Holy Spirit whom the Father will
41. send in my name, He shall teach you all things and
bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I
have said unto you,” (John 14:26).
YOU ARE THE KINGDOM OF GOD. THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE
AND ALL THE CREATIONS OF GOD ARE IN YOU. ALL THE
COUNTRIES AND THEIR INHABITANTS ARE IN MAN. GOD
HAS NO OTHER BANK; FOR ALL HIS TREASURES ARE
HIDDEN IN MAN. THE WEALTH, WISDOM, AND EVERY
OTHER THING YOU NEED ARE STORED IN YOU BY GOD. DO
NOT BE SURPRISED TO HEAR THIS BECAUSE HUMAN
BEINGS ARE THE GARDEN OF EDEN. YOU DO NOT ACQUIRE
WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE BECAUSE THESE DWELL WITHIN
YOU AND YOU ARE WITH GOD ALWAYS.
It is said that half baked education is very dangerous; for if
Adam had known this fact, he would not have suffered. He
would have taught the others who came after him. People
claim that man is suffering like the animals. Is man not an
animal? What does man know? What do you think the whites
know in the real sense of it?
THE RETURN O F MAN TO THE GARDEN OF EDEN:
THIS SERMON WILL BE PRINTED IN SEVERAL MILLION
COPIES, AND CIRCULATED THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE.
WE ARE NOW IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN. HAVE YOU EVER
SEEN ME PUTTING WATER IN THE FRIDGE? THE COLD
WATER FROM THE FRIDGE IS POISONOUS FOR YOUR BODY.
THIS SERMON IS GOING TO SHAKE THE WORLD.
42. CAN YOU IMAGINE SOMEONE WHO HAS NOT BEEN TO
COLLEGE, THE UNIVERSITY, AND HE HAS NOT EVEN
TRAVELED TO THE CITIES OF THE WORLD YET HE CAN
GIVE THIS TYPE OF A LECTURE? THAT IS WHY I SAY THAT I
AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THAT YOU WITNESS BUT
THE HOLY FATHER IS DOING HIS WORK. WHEN YOU SAY,
“OLUMBA IS DOING THE WORK,” I DENY IT OUTRIGHT.
INSTEAD, I WOULD SAY THAT IT IS THE FATHER WHO IS
RESPONSIBLE.
What you are seeing is just His house, the Garden of
Eden. A Reverend gentleman testified that he has
books in his library covering religion, philosophy; and
these books are worth thousands of Naira, yet he
does not know how to worship God. So, I asked him
of what good the books are to him? He still eats
meat and fish and he wants to marry. Out of
ignorance, people pray to God to save them. From
where will he help you if you have defiled His house?
DURING THE ADVENT OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, HE
WAS ACCUSED OF RATING HIMSELF WITH GOD. THIS WAS
DUE TO THE MIGHTY WORKS GOD WROUGHT THROUGH
HIM. NOW WHY CAN ANY PERSON NOT DO THE SAME
WORKS OR EVEN MORE? YOU MEMBERS GO ABOUT
SINGING AND PREACHING THAT LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA
OBU IS DOING THESE WONDERFUL WORKS. I DO NOT
AGREE WITH YOU. RATHER I CONTINUE TO SAY THAT IT IS
43. THE FATHER WHO IS RESPONSIBLE. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN
OR HEARD OF ANY HUMAN BEING WHO HAD DONE SUCH
WORKS AS WITNESSED IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS
AND STAR? I AM ALSO A WITNESS TO THE DOER OF THESE
WORKS, WHO IS THE FATHER.
ONCE THE FATHER ENTERS THE HOUSE HE IS PEACE,
LOVE, MERCY, ENDURANCE, PATIENCE, MEEKNESS,
WEALTH, LIFE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND THE GOOD THINGS.
HE IS THE ONE WHO CAN GIVE YOU ETERNAL LIFE. I HAVE
SAID THAT MY WORK IS TO CHANGE YOU FROM EVIL TO
RIGHTEOUSNESS. ONCE THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS TAKEN
POSSESSION OF YOUR BODY YOU DO NOT GO BACK TO
ENGAGE IN EVIL ANYMORE.
If you dare do that, all evil plans and acts would
manifest in you. You would equally be disgraced.
That is why He said that those of the world marry
and are given in marriage but those of the kingdom
neither marry nor are given in marriage. Our Lord
Jesus Christ expressly stated those qualified to
inherit the kingdom of God as supported by the
biblical passage below: “And Jesus said unto them,
The children of this world marry and are given in
marriage. But they which shall be accounted worthy
to obtain the kingdom and the resurrection from the
dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage.
44. Neither can they die any more for they are equal
unto the angels and are the children of God being the
children of the resurrection.” (Luke 20:34-36). Such
are like the angels. This statement is fulfilled in our
era.
AND SO DO NOT WORRY YOURSELF ANYMORE ABOUT
WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR GOD BECAUSE YOU ARE AN EMPTY
CASE WHICH CANNOT HELP ITSELF. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS TO REFRAIN FROM ANY ACT WHICH CAN DEFILE YOU.
SANCTIFY YOUR BODY SO THAT GOD CAN DWELL IN YOU.
IT IS THE SAME GOD WHO USED PETER AND OTHER
APOSTLES. THEY DID NOT PERFORM THOSE WORKS
THEMSELVES BUT GOD USED THEM AS TOOLS TO DO ALL
THE WORKS.
So anyone who comes here and continues to
commit fornication will suffer greatly. Anyone who
fornicates does not love his life. God alone knows
the true way. So as He made Our Lord Jesus Christ
to rise, He would also
raise us up with Christ. See the Second Bible Lesson
below.
45. SECOND BIBLE LESSON: JOHN 17:2
“As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he
should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given
him.”
When you have defiled yourselves where else can
you derive eternal life? What is your gain? Christ was
given power over all flesh. God did not create human
flesh for the purpose of fornication but He created
man as God’s dwelling place.
CHRIST ALONE HAS TOTAL POWER OVER YOUR BODY.
FROM YOUR TOE TO THE HEAD, EVERYTHING IN YOU IS
OWNED BY CHRIST. THEREFORE GIVE CHRIST ROOM TO
DWELL IN YOU AND ALLOW HIM TO HAVE DOMINION OVER
YOUR LIFE.
Christ said: “Let not your heart ever be troubled. Ye
believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s
house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would
have told you. I go to prepare a place for you, I will
come back again and receive you unto myself that
where I am there ye may be also.” (John 14:1-3).
From the beginning of the world who was able to
save himself? Who had known his left from his right?
46. Who had life or peace? Who was able to please God
in his manner? But God gave Himself to the whole
world, especially those who are prepared to meet
Him. Unfortunately, you are going back to the sins of
Adam and Eve. You complain that you have been in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star but God does not
save you. Have you not defiled God’s home? JUST AS
HE WAS GIVEN THE POWER OVER ALL FLESH SO IS HE A
SAVIOR FOR MANY WHO ARE READY TO HAVE HIM. HE DIED
JUST ONCE AND WILL NOT DIE AGAIN BECAUSE NOW THE
SON, AND THE FATHER HAS COME TO LIVE WITH YOU.
Therefore if you have defiled His home you have
yourself to blame. This is because there is no other
way of salvation except for you to confess your sins
and refrain from all sinful acts. Have you seen the
cause of your problems? Have you seen the reason
for your tears? This is why people have continued to
suffer from the time of Adam till date, even after
Christ has come to shed His precious blood to save
us from our sufferings. We now experience more
suffering because fornication, stealing and other sins
are on the increase. Before the advent of the Holy
Spirit, fornication and other vices had overtaken the
world. This was due to the ignorance of the people.
47. PEOPLE QUERY WHY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, PETER,
AND MOSES ALL WALKED FROM ONE PLACE TO THE OTHER
TO PROPAGATE THE SCRIPTURES, BUT WHY IS IT THAT
OLUMBA IS NOT WALKING AROUND? HOWEVER I AM NOT
TROUBLED BY SUCH REMARKS.
But then, have I walked in the streets when people
shout on the name of Olumba and write the
inscription O.O.O. everywhere, even on their shirts?
If you give your life to God today, what will you lose?
What do you think is particular about this world?
What type of food do you have here? What type of
enjoyment do you experience? I have not seen
anything fascinating about this world.
GOD LIVES IN YOU, YOU HAVE YOUR HEART’S DESIRE. GO
BACK TO THE GARDEN OF EDEN; FOR ALL GOOD THINGS
ABOUND THERE.
For instance, if somebody stays in Zaire and he is
given everything free of charge, will he have the
need of buying food? The children of God have no
problem because they are neither beaten by rain nor
are they scorched from the sun. None of them is
deprived of his or her rights.
IS THAT NOT A WONDERFUL THING? IN ZAIRE, A ONE
MONTH OLD CHILD BORN RECENTLY TESTIFIED ABOUT
48. LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU, AND HE INSTRUCTS
EVERYBODY TO BAPTIZE INTO BROTHERHOOD OF THE
CROSS AND STAR.
If we handover our entire body to Him, He would
empower us. All power comes from God. Where else
can we have our wealth? If not from God, where can
we derive real life?
THERE ARE STRIKING SIMILARITIES BETWEEN WHAT IS
HAPPENING HERE IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND
STAR, AND WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE LITTLE
COMMUNITY IN ZAIRE. THE FLOWERS, THE GARDEN OF
EDEN, AND IN FACT, THE MODE OF LIFE IN BROTHERHOOD
OF THE CROSS AND STAR IS EQUALLY PRACTICED THERE
IN ZAIRE. WHY ARE YOU DIFFERENT FROM THEM IN SPITE
OF THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT?
Even while the sermon is on, you are absent minded. Your
mind is far away from the gospel before you. THIS IS
BECAUSE THE HOLY FATHER IS NOT IN YOU, AND IT IS
ONLY THE FATHER WHO TEACHES ALL THINGS. WHAT IS
IMPOSSIBLE BEFORE GOD? HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ME WITH
A BIBLE, A PEN OR A PAPER? WHAT DO I NEED THESE
THINGS FOR?
When you are advised to refrain from fornication, you
feel disappointed, and you look at it as an impossible
situation. You even blame yourself for being a
49. member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Were
you created by fornication? The scripture says that:
“While I was with them in the world, I kept them in
thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and
none of them is lost but the son of perdition; that the
scripture might
be fulfilled.” (John 17:12). Those who have been
saved by the Father are saved indeed.
THIS IS A PERIOD TO OPEN YOUR EYES TO KNOW THAT
YOU ARE THE GARDEN OF EDEN. WHEN ADAM AND EVE
WERE IN THE GARDEN, AND THEY DID NOT DEFILE
THEMSELVES, GOD WAS INDEED WITH THEM. THEY WERE
GIVEN EVERYTHING THEY NEEDED.
When they defiled themselves, God withdrew His
services from them. That was the beginning of the
suffering of mankind till today. God created man; and
He knows what man is made up of, and what to use
man for. Jesus, Our Lord, was not conceived in the
flesh but God knew how He did everything about Him
to come to this world.
IT IS NOT YOUR PLACE TO TEACH GOD WHAT TO DO. YOU
ARE NOT GOD BUT YOU ARE HIS HOUSE. GOD LIVES IN
YOU AND YOU ALSO LIVE IN GOD. GOD AND MAN ARE ONE.
GOD AND MAN ARE ONE IN THE PROMOTION OF HIS DIVINE
50. WORK. WHEREVER YOU GO, GOD IS THERE WITH YOU. HE
STAYS WITH YOU EVERYWHERE. YOU ARE THE HOUSE OF
GOD, YOU ARE GOD’S VILLAGE, HIS VINEYARD AND
EVERYTHING FOR GOD.
That is why it is said, “If a man says I love God, and
hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not
his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God
whom he hath not seen?” (1 John 4:20). You and I
are the house of God, and we must keep God’s house
holy. As an empty house cannot be useful to itself,
so it is with you. You cannot accomplish anything on
your own without God in you.
Read the Golden Text.
GOLDEN TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 3:9
“For we are laborers together with God: ye are God’s
husbandry, ye are God’s building.”
Have you now seen why I am weeping for you? You claim to
be a member of Duke Town Church or Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star, of what use are these churches? You are the
church of God. You claim to be a Christian or a Moslem, how
far have you honored your claim? WE ARE ALL GOD’S
PEOPLE, WE ARE HIS VINEYARD AND HIS HOUSE. GOD HAS
NO OTHER VILLAGE, BUILDING, OR FARM EXCEPT HUMAN
BEINGS. WHATEVER YOU DEMAND FROM GOD, YOU WILL
GET, PROVIDED YOU ARE SANCTIFIED. THAT IS WHY IT IS
51. SAID THAT WHATEVER WE WANT, WE SHOULD KNEEL
DOWN, AND PRAY. YOU ONLY NEED TO THANK THE
FATHER FOR ANYTHING AND ALL WILL BE SUPPLIED
ACCORDINGLY. WHEN YOU PRONOUNCE A WORD IT MUST
SURELY COME TO PASS. FOR INSTANCE, WHEN THE HOLY
SPIRIT PRONOUNCES LIFE, THE PEOPLE HAVE IT IN
ABUNDANCE. IF IT IS MONEY WHICH IS PRONOUNCED, THE
PERSON WOULD START COUNTING IN MILLIONS.
UNFORTUNATELY, YOU HAVE NOT PURIFIED THE HOUSE
FOR HIM TO COME AND DWELL IN.
The question now is: Are you a house built by God to
dwell in? Do you realize that fact that you are God’s
husbandry, the Garden of Eden? You who defile the
temple of God, can you now see how desolate you
are? If a house is deserted for several years by its
owner, do you still regard such a house worthy for
habitation? What do you think would happen to such
a house? It is exposed to various hazzards. That is
the cause of human suffering all over the world. And
that explains why people keep on struggling from
January to December, year in and year out, yet they
are exposed to adversities and suffering. They face
ill-health, lack, anguish, and even death.
Once the owner of a given property abandons it, it is
left unprotected. That is why life is so hard with the
52. children, men and women. This is because the owner
of these houses has abandoned them. How can
things be well with you when you have refused the
owner his place of abode.
God is the owner of the kingdom, city, vineyard, and
house. He has arranged everything in their proper
places. No one can alter His arrangement. So it is
high time you stopped that foolishness.
THE TIME IS SO CLOSE AS THE TONGUE IS TO THE TEETH.
IF GOD DID NOT LOVE US, THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN
THE SHEDDING OF THE BLOOD BY OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION OF OUR SINS.
YOU MUST BE INHABITED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT:
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SHED HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD ON
THE CROSS AT CALVARY FOR THE REMISSION OF OUR
SINS SO AS TO LEAD US TO THE PROMISED LAND.
IF SOMEBODY ASKS YOU TO BUILD A CHURCH FOR
GOD TELL HIM THAT IT IS NOT IMPORTANT. WHAT IS
NEEDED IS TO SANCTIFY YOURSELF FOR GOD TO DWELL IN
YOU. YOU MUST PURIFY YOURSELF. LIKE A PREGNANT
WOMAN WHO EATS ONLY WHAT THE FETUS IN HER WOMB
DICTATES, YOU SHOULD BE SELECTIVE IN YOUR FOOD. IN
OTHER WORDS, IF THE HOLY SPIRIT ABIDES IN YOU, YOU
SHOULD LISTEN TO HIM, AND COMPLY WITH HIS
53. DIRECTIVES. BY SO DOING YOU WOULD NOT THINK OR
SPEAK EVIL.
THE TRINITY
Your actions and utterances would be directed by
the Holy Spirit. This explains why He says, “Either
make the tree good and its fruits good, or else make
the tree corrupt; for a tree is known by his fruits.”
(Matthew 12:33).
This implies that if you surrender yourself completely
unto God, the Holy Spirit will abide in you. Then you
will not be given to anger, evil communication,
falsehood, theft, fornication, illness, death, among
other vicissitudes of life.
In as much as we are opportuned to receive this
wisdom that we are the house of God, we should not
repeat the same mistake committed by Adam and
Eve which compelled God to desert them. Could you
imagine the sufferings which Adam and Eve
experienced when the owner of the house deserted
them? We are duty-bound to purify ourselves for God
to dwell in us. And when God takes His abode in you
then you will be problem free. Today, has God not
regained His abode? Or else who is responsible for
54. these mighty works in our midst? Or how would you
explain the subjugation of the powers and
principalities? Yes, celestial might had subdued all
human inventions.
YOU NO LONGER HEAR OF SUCH NAMES LIKE NAPOLEON,
HITLER, AMONG OTHERS. NOW THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS
TAKEN DOMINION OVER THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.
EVERYWHERE YOU GO TO, THE GLORY OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS MANIFESTED.
ARE YOU NOT EVEN SURPRISED AT THIS WONDERFUL
SERMON? THIS IS THE MOTHER OF ALL SERMONS. IT IS
UNIQUE.
This sermon has nullified the advice of Apostle Paul in 1
Corinthians 7:4 that: “THE WIFE HATH NOT POWER OF HER
OWN BODY, BUT THE HUSBAND; AND LIKEWISE ALSO THE
HUSBAND HATH NOT POWER OF HIS OWN BODY BUT THE
WIFE.”
IN THIS ERA, THE ABOVE EXCERPT STANDS REVOKED
FOREVER.
Right now, the Father alone exercises complete control over
everything seen and unseen. The Father alone abides in you,
in me, in all and sundry. Nothing else can rear its ugly head.
May God bless His Holy Word. Amen.
THANK YOU HOLY FATHER.

56. DO NOT BE CARNALLY MINDED:
BIBLE WITNESS:
1Jn 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he
loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our
sins.
1Jn 4:11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love
one another.
1Jn 4:12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one
another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in
us.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Rom 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things
of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of
the Spirit.
Rom 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be
spiritually minded is life and peace.
Rom 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for
it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
Rom 8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please
God.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Col 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things
which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of
God.
Col 3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on
the earth.
Col 3:3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in
God.
Col 3:4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall
ye also appear with him in glory.
57. Col 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the
earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil
concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
Col 3:6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on
the children of disobedience:
Col 3:7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye
lived in them.
HE ASKED HER TO REQUEST FOR LIVING WATERS:
WHAT DID OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST TELL THE
SAMARITAN WOMAN. HE WANTED HER TO REQUEST FOR
LIVING WATERS SO THAT SHE MIGHT NOT THIRST AGAIN.
I want to give you a tale about a certain woman. No person
ever knows God or loves God, only God loves us and loves
us. Since God has created you and revealed Himself to you
at this end of time, rest assured and be happy. Everything
will manifest according to the way He wants. Recall how our
Lord revealed Himself to the eleven disciples after His
resurrection and Thomas who was not in their midst said
unless he put his hand into the wounded side be would not
believe that the Lord had resurrected and visited them. After
eight days the Lord appeared and asked Thomas to come
forth and put his hand into His pierced side. First He
revealed Himself to the other disciples, without showing
them the pierced side. Thomas said "Master I now believe."
The master said, "you believe because you saw, blessed are
those who do not see but believe." Well I am saying that it is
not going to be like the former arrangement — the Jews
58. wanted signs and wisdom, and if you want signs and
wisdom, He will show you, but this will not profit you. If you
want Him to bestow great powers on you so you can cause
the dead to rise and wrought other miracles, He will do it but
that will not help you. God is perfect; He can do whatever He
wants to do. As long as He has called you into this Kingdom,
whether you are Adam, a filthy person, that should not
disturb you. Stop making requests to Him. What does He not
know? The Father knows your thoughts; you are after the
carnal things of this world. That is why things are taking this
shape. Like I have said quite often, if God did not come by
Himself, no angel or spirit or man could accomplish or fulfill
the manner of things as they are now.
NO LACK IS WITH GOD:
MY ADVICE TO YOU IS THAT YOU SHOULD NOT TAKE
INSTRUCTIONS FROM ANYONE; NEITHER SHOULD YOU
LISTEN TO ANYONE FOR THIS IS NOT THE TIME FOR SUCH
WORKS. YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THAT GOD HAS COME AND
THAT HE CAN DO EVERYTHING.
Believe that if your carnal Father or mother has a share in
this Kingdom the Father will call them here but if you do not
see them here forget it. God lacks nothing, and no lack is
with God. No mistakes are recorded against Him. You are
arguing from whence does death come? It is from the
worldly plane of manifest. Remember, when the Jews came
to tempt our Lord Jesus Christ, they asked about a woman
who had married seven husbands, and that in the
59. resurrection of the dead, whose wife would she be? Our
Father said He would tell us in truth that there is no wisdom
in placing a mirror before a blind person. That is why our
Lord said "I have many things to tell you but you will not
understand; But when that spirit of truth comes, He will
teach you all things and shall take you to the accurate
knowledge of truth.”
Now I have instructed you to abstain from fornication, lying.
How many people have refrained from these? You have been
told that the wages of sin is death. Obedience, it is written
is better than sacrifice. If you call on O.O.O. my Father, help
me, that is having a little bit, but if you obey His voice, this
avails you much. He will open the gateway to you to
understand the recondite wisdom of God. THERE ARE
THINGS THAT SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN TO YOU BUT DO YOU
PLACE YOUR PRECIOUS GEMS BEFORE THE PIGS OR DOGS?
Any time I speak to you like this, you laugh me to scorn, and
you say that I do not speak like a human being. YOU
PROFESS THAT THE FATHER IS GOD, BUT DO YOU
UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HIS STATEMENTS. IF
YOU KNOW HIM, BUT DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE
SIGNIFICANCE OF HIS STATEMENTS, CAN IT BE
CONSTRUED THAT YOU KNOW HIM?
HE ASKED HER TO REQUEST FOR LIVING WATERS:
Ninety-nine percent of you want God to give you children,
houses, the material things of this world. If this is true, can
you say you are in the Kingdom of heaven and what then is
60. the difference between you and those in the world. The
wealth and affluence of this mundane world cannot satisfy
you. WHAT DID OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST TELL THE
SAMARITAN WOMAN. HE WANTED HER TO REQUEST FOR
LIVING WATERS SO THAT SHE MIGHT NOT THIRST AGAIN.
If God were to concern Himself with wife, houses, cars, He
would not have done the great works that He accomplished.
Have you ever heard that since Peter was called into the
ministry, he married a wife and had children? Paul Apostle,
was a lawyer who left his law practice, his wealth, and
followed our Lord. The Apostles surrendered themselves
completely to God. They served Him wholeheartedly. That
was why Peter asked those of them that had left everything
and followed our Lord, what their reward would be. You see
vanity constitutes hindrances to you. You have heard the
statement made by Christ Student Ukpong. His statements
from the first day he was called here have been advanced
and deep in meaning. YOU HAVE OBSERVED THE
DEMARCATION IN THIS HALL, THE DEMARCATION
BETWEEN THE CONGREGATION AND THE FATHER'S ALTER
AND THEN THE PULPIT. MANY OF US SEE THE
ARRANGEMENTS IN THIS KINGDOM AS A SHADOW
BECAUSE THE CARNAL THINGS OF THIS WORLD BLIND US.
DRAW A LESSON FROM YOUR LEADER. HE HAS NEITHER
SHOES, NOR A WRIST WATCH, NOR A CAR, BICYCLE, AND
HE DOES NOT EAT. DOES IT MEAN HE IS NOT IN HEAVEN
AGAIN? People are speaking disdainfully about Brotherhood
of the Cross and Star. They say that Brotherhood is
61. cannibalistic, and it sucks blood. Do their sayings affect me?
But when they speak this to you, you are affected, you get
angry because you are still in the world. The Father is in
another Kingdom; He is in Heaven, while you are on other
side. You are yet to understand this. When Peter ate animals
sacrificed to idols and Barnabas followed his line of action,
Paul on the other hand stood before the crowd and rebuked
Peter so that he (Peter) might refrain from such acts.
Our Lord Jesus rebuked His disciples when they were
admiring the magnificent buildings of the Synagogue. He
told them that one stone would not be left on another until
all are demolished. GOD IS NOT IN JERUSALEM OR IN 34
AMBO STREET ALONE BUT HE DWELLS IN US. GOD IS
NEARER TO YOU THAN YOUR TONGUE IS TO YOUR TEETH,
BUT WHEN YOU HEAR HIS INJUNCTIONS AND YOU DO NOT
PRACTICE THEM, HE IS FARTHER FROM YOU JUST AS THE
EARTH IS FAR FROM HEAVEN.
Moses said at the fulness of time God will raise up a
Prophet who shall be like unto Himself and you shall
hearken to his voice. And those who do not submit to Him
shall be wiped away from the face of the earth.
NOT HE WHO WILLS OR RUNS THE RACE:
What is the first commandment in the Kingdom of God? Now,
when you are instructed not to do this or that, you refuse: IF
GOD WERE MAN OR ANGEL, IF HE DID NOT COME HIMSELF,
WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD HAVE BEFALLEN MAN? THAT
62. IS WHY YOU SHOULD KEEP YOUR PEACE BECAUSE GOD
DOES HIS THINGS SLOWLY, KNOWING THE NATURE OF
MAN. DO NOT DISTURB YOURSELF BY QUARRELING WITH
YOUR BROTHER OVER THIS KINGDOM. DO NOT FORCE ANY
ONE INTO THIS KINGDOM. REMEMBER WHAT OUR LORD
SAID, "NO PERSON CAN COME AFTER ME EXCEPT MY
FATHER CALLS HIM." IT WAS WRITTEN TWO PERSONS WILL
SLEEP ON A BED AND ONE IS TAKEN AND THE OTHER LEFT.
TWO PERSONS WILL BE AT A MILL AND ONE IS TAKEN AND
THE OTHER ABANDONED. IT IS NOT HE WHO WILLS OR
WHO RUNS THE RACE BUT, GOD WHO HAS MERCY.
You are yet to understand where you are. You bring in your
children, brothers and sisters, yet you cannot enter. The
kingdom of heaven is different from the kingdom at this
world. The way that leads to heaven is wide open and none
has entered yet. Anybody who says he has seen God face to
face is a liar, leave Him alone. Think of yourself, whether
you are worthy. Check yourself, think of all the teachings
you have received and practice them. A city you have never
entered, how can you go there with a load; flesh and blood
cannot inherit this kingdom.
