1. BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
THE TENETS OF BROTHERHOOD
Spread these teachings
This address is centered on the principles of Brotherhood of
the Cross and Star. I will enumerate all the salient points. It
is important that you take adequate note of them, that you
may not be deceived. The extent of your ignorance about the
tenets of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is rather
surprising. This work qualifies as direct and verbatim report
on this issue. Therefore, it is mandatory for all workers and
children of God to acquire a copy of this publication. It is
important that they study it carefully.
A lot of people profess to be God's own children, yet the
field is white but the harvesters are very few. Equally, so
many are eager to join the fold of Brotherhood of the Cross
and Star, but what they lack is the physical connection. How
will they be converted without people? This becomes a
pertinent question which must be tackled. I will liken this
problem to the situation recorded in:
2. Acts of the Apostle 8:30-31.
And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet
Isaiah, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me?
And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with
him.
A lot of souls are prepared to accept the teachings of
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, but how can they, if there
is nobody to direct them? That is why I charge you all to
spread the gospel of this Kingdom.
Ordination
Ordination in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star can be
likened to the admission and registration into the Christ's
Universal Spiritual School of Practical Christianity. As a
student in a school, you will not be awarded a certificate
except you satisfy the necessary requirements of your
course work. Similarly, except an ordained one submits to
the teachings and injunctions of this Kingdom, his boast and
pride, are in vain. You will notice that I ordained you even as
"green horns". You need not mistake this solemn enrolment
as an opportunity to ride on others or trample on the toes of
3. others. If you do, you are misguided. Your ignorance is
willful. Purge yourself of all excesses now, imbibe and
practice my injunctions.
The reference below is a proper guide to the conduct
required of the ordained ones.
Matthew 20:25-28
But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the
princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and
they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall
not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among
you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief
among you, let him be your servant. Even as the Son of man
came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give
his life a ransom for many.
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the new Kingdom of
God, not one of the nominal churches. You need not receive
formal Bible or seminary training to be ordained. The text
above also should serve as a guiding compass for you, most
especially, as you perform your functions in the Kingdom.
4. The Virtues Of A Good Steward
Pastors(now Bishops) Ejedawe, Okpala Williams, A.E.O.
Ekanem among others have contributed marvelously to the
growth of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. They have built
Bethels, Secretariats and Quarters to provide
accommodation for others. Also, facilities such as
generating plants, boreholes and other conveniences have
been provided by them. A tastefully furnished apartment has
been built for the Sole Spiritual Head, Leader Olumba
Olumba Obu among other accomplishments. All these are
donated freely and willingly. This is the Brotherhood spirit
which I want you to emulate and display.
You should promote at all times selfless services and shun
discrimination, duping, extortion, egotism, stealing,
intrigues, and chaos in all its ramifications. Put in your best
to work in the Kingdom. An honest steward is humble,
simple and loyal. He undertakes wide evangelical journeys.
He is also obedient and shows complete reverence to God.
He depends completely on the Father for spiritual
instructions and guidance. A dishonest steward is he who
places premium on visions, Holy Oil, Biakpan water etc. He
sells Father's inscription and His gospels. He abides in
vices.
5. Power of the Kingdom
God has endowed you with powers. These powers are so
tremendous that you need not fear death, sickness; poverty
or hunger. Show appreciation and gratitude to God at all
times. Remit all tithes, charity and freewill offerings to the
Father.
All monies raised in this Kingdom belong of God. Do not
arrogate to yourself the right to spend them. Such monies
include, first and second offerings (blessings), tithe and
charity.
Many brethren have suffered the wrath of God for diverting
these monies into their private use. You do not have to
tamper with these monies because, once you raise money in
the name of God, it becomes a direct offering unto Him.
Some of the problems you encounter are as a result of
diverting God's fund for other purposes.
Some of these problems include:
Loss of God's blessing,
6. Loss of prosperity,
Plagues, like disease, famine and flood and
other natural disasters.
Do not render services in this Kingdom for money. This is so
because this offense carries similar penalty as stated above.
You are fond of directing all monies like tithe, free-will
offerings, and charity through people to the Father and as
such, these monies do not get to their destination. You
should desist from this action. Secondly, people from time to
time, extort money from you. The truth is simple. They use
my name (the Sole Spiritual Head, Leader Olumba Olumba
Obu) to deceive you. Take note of this simple fact today.
When they approach you, please turn them down. Read the
text outlined below for a thorough conviction.
Matthew 10:7-10
And as ye go, preach, saying, The Kingdom of heaven is at
hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast
7. out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Provide
neither gold nor silver nor brass in your purses; Nor scrip for
your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet
staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
This text also goes to buttress the daily practice in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Every service is rendered
free. Some of these free services include:
(a) Baptism,
(b) Healing
(c) Feasting,
(d) Holy oil,
(e) Prayers,
(f) Holy water
8. (g) Sermons and
(h) Songs, among others.
All these items are your right and entitlement. I therefore,
urge you to pay no fee for these services. To be more
explicit:
(a) Healing should be done free.
(b) Feast which is strictly celebrated by another member in
a Bethel must be eaten free.
(c) Holy oil and water must be distributed free without
adding any other form of concoction to it and
(d) Sermons and visions must be delivered free
Now that you are aware of these facts, do not give your
money out to anybody. To this end, be sufficiently warned
about the deceitful visionaries and those who operate
Spiritual Hospitals. Their activities are scandalous. Keep
9. them off. Consequently, this address will disabuse your
minds about the lies these so-called visionaries and spiritual
hospitals' operators tell you. They claim to have diverse
inborn powers, just to instill fear into their victims. They are
all false prophets.
The word "vision" has now been substituted with another
word called "Spiritual X-ray." This is because the Father has
condemned charging fees for vision, so the charlatans now
call it "X-ray," so that they may still charge fees. They do not
call whatever money they charge you as fees but as
payment for feast. Take note of this fact. Do not be forced to
cough out all you have for a feast. Feast must be celebrated
according to your means. They also collect huge sums of
money from their victims, claiming that the Father has need
for them. It should be known henceforth that I do not
request anything from any person. I do not also authorize
anybody to collect money or any other item on my behalf.
This practice is common in spiritual hospitals (Healing
Homes). So you are warned. Deal with them with tact and
wisdom.
Those of you who take undue advantage of the generosity
available in Brotherhood are just wasting your time in the
fold. You cannot enjoy the good things that radiate out of
the Kingdom, because you have come only for the bread and
10. fish. To this group, I urge them to turn a new leaf. To be
more explicit, let me elaborate and repeat these facts once
again. All the spiritual hospitals so far established are for
commercial purposes. They register patients and charge
them fees. The services rendered are not free. They are all
hirelings and not shepherds. A true Spiritual Hospital must
cater for the in-mates and take care of them gratis because
the Father called you into this Kingdom free of charge. Your
money, beauty or status cannot afford you a place in the
Kingdom. Therefore, since you were called into the Kingdom
free of charge you have to glorify God. It is not proper for
you to indulge in fornication, adultery, deceit and other
forms of vices.
Protect jealously, your position(s) in the Kingdom. Your
prominence, status and wealth cannot afford you a chance
in the Kingdom. The purpose of your call is strictly for the
glorification of God and not for fish and bread. It is wrong for
you to have forgotten about the purpose of your call, that is,
to glorify God. Instead of indulging in all forms of vices,
glorify God. If you want to overcome these vices in you, pay
your tithe directly to the Father. It could be in the form of
cash or kind; provided it represents one-tenth of your profit.
Rely on the Holy Spirit
11. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not a worshipper's
house; like the shrines, temples, mosque and church. It is
the Kingdom of God. Here, our Lord Jesus Christ is the
teacher, sustainer and guardian. He plans and executes your
daily activities. In Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, when
you are baptized, you will receive the Holy Spirit. When you
receive the Holy Spirit, you will be able to practice the
injunctions of our Lord Jesus Christ and then He will be your
Lord and Saviour. I mandate you all to spread these good
tidings that the Holy Spirit is here on earth.
Illustration
This is an earthly situation, that will explain a heavenly one.
There was a certain man who established a church. In his
church, the man preached about confession, repentance,
baptism, and righteousness but the people refused to heed.
Instead, the congregation stayed in the church to quarrel,
commit fornication, sow seed of discord, and commit all
forms of vices. Despite the abominable life of the members,
at the end of the day, the founder of the church would tell
the members that God has blessed them all. The members,
on hearing that, would leap for joy and proclaim that the
church was the best for them and they reaffirmed their
continuous membership.
12. The Pastor never suspended or dismissed any person from
his church; rather, he willingly accepted whosoever opted
for membership. The members were so happy with the
Pastor for not imputing sins on them. The Pastor was never
angry with his congregation; he never hated any of them. He
did not relent in his effort to preach to them. He also
admonished them against quarrelling, fighting and
fornication. He discouraged them from imputing sins upon
their fellow men. They were all urged to keep away from evil
practices. In spite of all these, the members never took him
seriously. They continued in their ways. At the end of every
worship, the Pastor would pronounce God's blessings on all
the members.
On a particular occasion, right inside the church, fighting
ensued. A man sustained injury. A policeman was invited
and he arrested some members, while others escaped. The
whole place went topsy-turvy. At this juncture, everybody
thought that it was finished with the church. However, the
event was only to fulfill the statement that, "when all hope
is gone, the redeemer appears."
Surprisingly, the following Sunday, the church was filled to
its capacity. All the members assembled with penitent and
obedient hearts. They determined to practice every bit of
13. the gospel preached by the Pastor. The church was purged
of iniquities and only righteousness reigned supreme.
The story is told in order to strengthen your faith and
enhance your awareness. It explains why it is said that, "all
things work together for good to them that love God, to them
who are the called according to His purpose." (Rom 8:28).
When you fall sick, you are apt to say that God is not in
existence otherwise, you would not have fallen sick. The
fact that you are sick does not mean that God does not
exist. When you claim that God does not exist because of
your temptation and affliction, you are only displaying your
ignorance. God has always been and shall ever be. When the
going is tough, know that at the end of the experience, there
will be progress and prosperity. It is also my fervent belief
that one day, the tide will change and all of you will also
change for good.
The Motive of Christ's Students/Servants
The Christ's Students and Christ's Servants were assembled
to serve the Father, receive His teachings and practice
same. They were supposed to emulate Him and abide in
righteousness, but the reverse was the case. They
14. constituted themselves into pressure groups and internal
'Police`. They neglected in its entirety, all the teachings and
directives of the Holy Spirit. However, the wind of change
blew across Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and they
were not exempted. Now, they are sober, meek and humble.
They are ever ready to render services to God gratis.
Righteousness and self-control are their watchwords.
I predict, at all times, the future of this Kingdom; but you
doubt me. However, these predictions have manifested in
several occasions. For instance, some years ago, I told you
that the various fellowships were established only as a
matter of convention and that individuals will initiate and
execute projects in this Kingdom. That has come to pass. I
also told you that a time shall come when brethren shall go
abroad on evangelism. That also has been fulfilled.
The students have always been in the forefront to introduce
new ideas in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; some of
which were vehemently objected to by others. For instance,
the inscription `Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, the Sole
Spiritual Head' was introduced by the Christ's Students. This
idea met with tough resistance from members. The situation
would have resulted into something else but for the
intervention of the Father. The statement in the Bible which
15. states: "But he that shall endure unto the end, the same
shall be saved" (Matthew 24:13) has been fulfilled.
Christ's Students Commissioned as Teachers
Those who were regarded as slaves and house-helps are
now my representatives. Having left their parents and
material things to serve the Father, the Father has now
exalted them. Accordingly, the Christ's Students should be
accorded the respect they deserve. This is the time they
should occupy their rightful position. Christ's Students
Udofia and Mary have now been fully accredited as the
Father's mouthpiece in their respective countries. Other
Christ's Students have been given the full authority to go
round the world and teach members the truth and direct
them on the affairs of the Kingdom. Whoever does not
recognize God hates himself.
Christ`s Students have left their parents, relations, the world
and everything therein and followed the Father for twenty-two
(22) years now. They are therefore, the only group that
is properly versed with the correct way by which things are
done in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. They alone
resemble the Father because they came here to learn and
have graduated. Whosoever receives them receives me and
whosoever rejects them rejects me. Things that group(s)
16. and fellowship(s) cannot do, the Christ's students have been
able to do with ease. This is therefore, the time for them to
be obeyed, loved and rewarded. For those who were able to
withstand the storm and stand firm, now is the time for them
to be crowned.
Read Romans 8:16-17:
The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirits, that we are
the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God,
and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him,
that we may be also glorified together.
The above passage goes further to confirm that there can be
no crown without a cross. In other words, there is no regret
in rendering services to the Most High.
There can be no Crown without Cross
The lesson you should learn is that without cross, there can
be no crown. Brotherhood of the cross and Star is not a
place one can operate with pride. You have to humble
yourself and put into practice all the teachings delivered by
the Father in the Kingdom. You have to pass through
17. tribulation, hatred, hunger and various denials in order to
inherit this Kingdom. The Christ's students have passed
through all that and even more. That is why I have now sent
them into the world as teachers and counsellors. When you
see them, you have seen the Holy Father. Whatever your
position, you have to listen to them because they represent
the Father. The Christ's students love the Father so much.
There is interplay of love between the Father and the
Christ's students. Therefore, whatever the Holy Father tells
them to do, they do not argue.
In order to inherit the Kingdom of God, one has to tread the
narrow path. The narrow path leads to eternal life. When you
are disgraced and debased, rejoice because it accords you
exaltation. When you are rejected by the world, rejoice, for
God has received you. Therefore, in this Kingdom, if you are
despitefully used and persecuted, rejoice. Do not rejoice in
wealth, carnal position or in anything that is material.
Everybody should be ready to carry the cross. This
constitutes the fundamental requirement towards your
graduation. Refer to Luke 14:26-27 for detailed explanation:
If any man come to me, and hate not his Father, and mother,
and wife, and children, and brethren and sister, yea, and his
own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And whosoever doth
18. not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my
disciple.
Be Benevolent To The Christ's Students
There is a spiritual song which has it that you should `sell all
you have and follow the Lord.' Except you surrender
everything that you had and follow the Lord, you cannot
inherit the Kingdom of God. That is exactly worthy of
emulating. Hence, our Lord Jesus Christ enjoined:
"Verily, verily I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever
I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him
that sent me." (John 13:20).
It is wrong for you to think that you are being compelled to
be generous to Christ's students. Anything given under such
understanding is not recorded to your credit. Your
generosity should be voluntary and with joy. After-all, they
are not paid servants. Whatever you do to them, you are
doing unto me. I am visiting the world in a secret way
(through the Christ's students) just as I have said.
Whosoever conquers shall be crowned. That is exactly what
has happened with the students.
19. Classification Of Membership
The students will not say anything of their own. Whatever
they hear from the Father, same shall they declare unto you.
Any person or Bethel that obeys them shall have peace and
progress, and God shall not depart from them. The Christ's
students are now peace-makers.
The different names: the Christ's Students, Christ's
Servants, Christ's Practical Students and the rest of the
groupings, have different meanings and assignments.
Facts about Brotherhood of the Cross and Star
The first important thing that must be known and noted in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is that all tithe, freewill
offering, and charity belong to the Father. Such monies must
not be used for any administrative or other purposes. If your
Bethel organizes a launching, from the amount realized, one
tenth of it should be forwarded to the Father as tithe.
Whatever God has blessed you with: crops, animals or
children, etc, you have to surrender the tenth of it to God as
tithe. This is not, in any way, done through compulsion. It is
20. a means of expressing a thankful heart. This is not the kind
of tithe which a visioner mandates you to pay. Supposing
somebody earns N20.00 a month, if a visioner directs that he
pays a tithe of N20.00; is that one tenth of that amount, or is
God a Father of confusion? This goes to prove how heartless
some of these visioners are. Tithe is nothing but a covenant
reached between an individual and God. No other person
should know about it. See (Malachi 3:10).
Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be
meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the
Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven,
and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room
enough to receive it.
Whosoever does not practice Brotherhood according to its
tenets and rules, cannot experience its beauty; and the
blessings of God elude him. What God has done to mankind
is so great that we should not hesitate to show appreciation
to Him.
Mutual Co-operation, Love and Understanding
Here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, there should be
co-existence, mutual co-existence, love, oneness, and
21. mutual understanding. It has been said that the duty of the
servants of God is to seek for the good of others, as written
in Matthew 23:11: `But he that is greatest among you shall
be your servant.
Judging from the above reason, I choose you so that you will
serve and not to be served. If you do this, then the world
would see the glory of God.
In Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, nobody would have
been sick, no person should have lacked and there should
have been no lamentation, if the Word of God were to be
practiced. All of you have rejected the Word of God. I have
brought you these teachings so that you may change. If you
endeavor to pay your tithe regularly and promptly with
whatever God has given you, then you will have peace of
mind, and the glory of God will be manifested in you.
Other Facts About Brotherhood of the Cross and Star
In Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, there is no
orchestration, no burning of candles and incenses, no
incantation, no perfumery, no bathing at midnight, no
offering of prayers at designated places and no invocation.
22. Once you believe and get baptized, our Lord Jesus Christ
abides in you, and you have therefore, obtained salvation.
Baptism in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star has no
specific time. Once a person is ready for it, arrangement
should be made to get him baptized. A baptized member of
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, whether man or woman
is free and have been authorized to baptize another.
Many members have circumvented these guidelines and
have delegated authority to themselves to baptize in their
bethels, such people fixed time which is favorable to them.
This is wrong, as this arrangement creates avenue for them
to charge a fee. A handful of persons will not be able to
baptize the entire world. That is why all baptized
Brotherhood have the mandate to convert and baptize
others.
Mark 16:16
"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that
believeth not shall be damned."
23. This is the judgement. In this wise, baptism should not be
restricted. As many people as possible should get into the
world and baptize people, so that they may evade the
judgement. Once a person is baptized, he receives the Holy
Spirit; and it is this Spirit that will teach him everything.
You are living witnesses to the happenings in this Kingdom.
Accordingly, you are charged to go out and teach the world
how to love one another.
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star Decries Idleness
Nobody should be idle or lazy. Every person should be
gainfully employed . This Kingdom does not permit idleness,
stealing, laziness and begging. You are free to engage in
farming, trading, fishing, or any other profession.
God has healed you of your infirmities and has already fed
you. You have to appreciate and compliment that gesture. In
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, we neither drink, nor
offer same to anybody. We do not go to the hospital or
consult oracles. Neither do we snuff nor indulge in any form
of vice. Whatever your problems, if you confess your sins
and knock your head on the ground, your problems will
surely be taken away.
24. God dwells in everything and this is the time of
transformation. Mankind will be removed from sinfulness to
sinlessness. Therefore, whatever happens to you, know that
it has a particular purpose to fulfill.
How Do I Solve My Problems?
The solution to all your problems lies in the following:
(a) Confession of sins,
(b) Fasting,
(c) Praying,
(d) Feasting and evangelical work (Ministry work and
Preaching).
The charge that is given to all of you now is to go out and
preach the gospel to the world. That does not stop you from
engaging in your normal profession or trade. If you are a
25. farmer, a trader, a civil servant or fisherman, continue with
your work. After each day's job, endeavour to go out and
preach to the world to forsake sins and convert them unto
God. Do not force any person to repent because there is not
force in Brotherhood. Everything is done willingly and in
love. Whosoever does not want to repent and serve God,
leave him alone for he has not erred. Whoever does not want
to fast and pray, do not force him as well.
God Requires a Thankful Heart
If all the members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star were
to love one another, all problems would have been subjected
to them. If you were to appreciate the love of God towards
you, and His protection at all times, you would not fail to
show a thankful heart - by paying your tithes regularly. All
along, you had been consulting oracles, taking drugs
(modern or native) and preparing charms, you paid heavily
for all these, yet you had no peace. In Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star, all problems are subjected to you. Poverty
and afflictions are all forgotten issues, yet you do not praise
God, why?
You cannot claim to love God, if you do not love your
brethren. (1 John 4:20). If you show benevolence to your
26. fellow brother, you will be rewarded accordingly. This is
confirmed in:
Matthew 10:41-42:
He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall
receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a
righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward. And
whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a
cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say
unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
Success Through Obedience
Now, everybody has got to emulate the Father and resemble
Him. You have to refrain from fornication, anger, hatred and
other vices. Do not imitate any member. If you emulate the
Father and practice His injunctions, you will surely witness
the glory of God in you.
Your wife, your husband, your children, your relations and all
your friends shall disappoint you but the Father will never
disappoint you forever. In any case, it is not the pleasure of
your parents, friends or relations to disappoint you. They,
27. being slaves, cannot liberate you. They cannot therefore,
help you because they themselves are afflicted and in need
of salvation. They definitely cannot offer you what they do
not possess (Nemo dat quot non habiet). The Father has
come to liberate you and to remove you from bondage.
This is a new world where everything is new. No one should
live according to the dictates of the flesh. Always listen to
the spirit. If you do whatever the Father does not sanction, it
will not work out well. Whatever the Father tells you to do,
do not hesitate. Do not toy with the words of the Father. Re-educate
others on these facts. Your problem is that you do
not heed to the Father's instruction. You stand, when he
charges you to sit; and when He tells you to stand, you start
moving. Note very well that, all things shall pass away but
not a jot of the words of God shall pass away without being
fulfilled. (Matt 5:18).
Decentralization of Pentecostal Centres
There should be no division or discrimination no matter the
multitude. You all are sheep under one shepherd. The
decentralization of Pentecostal Centres is done so that
those who cannot pay their fares to Calabar can equally
enjoy the activities in their localities. This is also to fulfill
28. the words of the Scriptures which states : "Go ye therefore,
and teach all nations..." (Matt 28:19).
The Pentecostal Centres are, therefore, no Kingdoms or
empires carved out for certain persons. Everything belongs
to the Father. You are at liberty to attend any Pentecostal
Centre.
If your spirit tells you to commit fornication or adultery or
any other vice at all, do not obey such a spirit; for it comes
from the flesh. Any instruction that does not conform with
the teachings in this Kingdom should be shunned. No person
should claim superiority due to his wealth, knowledge or
status. We are one in the Lord. The Holy Spirit is the
greatest and yet, the most humble. We should, therefore,
emulate Him.
Nobody should disobey the Leader's Representatives, or any
other person kept in a position of authority. Whosoever
receives and obeys them, receives and obeys me. If you love
any person, it is the Father you love. If you curse and abuse
any person, know that you are doing same to the Father.
There should be no quarrel, discrimination and hatred in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, because we are
Brethren.
29. Do not charge for any spiritual work
Your problem is that you charge a fee for whatever service
you render. A hired (paid) servant is not a good servant but a
laborer. Those who know what they are doing in the
Kingdom do not receive any form of gratification, nor charge
a fee or allowance. If you work for money, you are not a
good shepherd and your sheep will not hearken to your
instructions. This is so because, they will regard you as their
servant and paid laborer. That is why the Bible has
instructed us to carry nothing while on evangelical tour; for
the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house
(See Luke 10:4 & 7).
If anybody should have faith and believe in God, and practice
the injunction above, such a person will surely experience
the manifestation of the glory of God in him. Try God, for He
will prove Himself. If you serve God diligently, He will also
serve you conscientiously. If you doubt Him, He will depart
from you. If you present yourself as the mouthpiece of God
but collect money from people, you have mortgaged your
respect. I am giving you this training so that you will go out
and teach the world.
30. A Functional Body
Our Lord Jesus Christ had only twelve disciples, who went
about propagating His name by preaching the Gospel.
Similarly, this is what you are supposed to do. You were not
meant to be stationed in one place and force people to
accept God and serve Him. One would not repent because of
the amount of Gospel that is preached to him or because of
the service that you render to him. You could be benevolent
to somebody and would endeavour to render services to him,
yet he would not repent. The person who would repent
needs very little Gospel, and within a twinkle of an eye, he
would repent.
You err when you say that there is no ordained person in
your Bethel or town. The whole of Israel had Samuel as the
only prophet. Before Samuel, Eli was the only prophet in
Israel. The ordination you witness here is just a matter of
formality. The only thing you have to hold fast is the Word of
God. That is the key to salvation and eternal life.
It is My desire that professionals from various fields should
form themselves into organized fellowships where they will
perform their roles to the society as a body. So far, the
doctors, the accountants, the lawyers, and even the
traditional rulers have formed their functional bodies. All
31. others who have not formed theirs should do so.
Accordingly, these fellowships should work as a functional
body for the purpose of good governance.
Reward The Preachers:
Since creation this is the first time the Father has come by
Himself to change mankind!!!
It is stated in Galatians 6:6 that: Let him that is taught in the
word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good
things.
It is good to serve God rather than Satan. If you are kind and
obedient to the Christ's Students, you will be rewarded.
Most of you show appreciation to the visioners and leave the
preachers and their words. You fail to reason that
whosoever gives you the word of God, gives you eternal life.
All the bethels have to do things the way they are done in
the Headquarters. Learn from the Christ's Students for they
are the ones to teach.
32. Matthew chapter 10 verse 37 states that:
He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy
of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is
not worthy of me.
In order to be worthy of Him, you have to "hate" yourself,
your parents, your friends, and every mundane thing. The
greatest of all things is to surrender one's self for the
service of God.
Whatever group you belong, practice the sermon. Do not
demand a fee for your service. Do not crave to be a Christ's
Student. But love and obey them. Romans 5:19 confirms this
fact as it states: For as by one man's disobedience many
were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many
be made righteous.
Equally, by loving the Christ's Students, you stand blessed
by the Father. Whatever you have, and can do for them, do it;
for some rewards await you.
The Christ's Students have fulfilled the necessary
requirements in this Kingdom. They have to reap their
33. reward. Henceforth, I beseech you to behave as people who
have received the recondite wisdom from The Sole Spiritual
Head, Leader Olumba Olumba Obu.
The Word Of God Supersedes All Things:
If you reject the teachings given by the Holy Father, you are
a rebel. It is said that you should be kind and benevolent to
the preachers. Whatever you give unto them is not too much.
Your gift could only be accepted by the preacher as a form
of appreciation, not a fee. Do not allow the Christ's Students
to suffer just as the disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ did.
Since the disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ were not
properly catered for, they had to go into peoples fields and
pluck corn for their meals. (Refer to Matthew 12:1 for
confirmation.) It is therefore your duty to support them all.
Christ's Students should be respected and cared for
whenever they come to your respective Bethels. May the
Lord Bless His Holy Words. A-men!
