THE HOLY SPIRIT


Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or
whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
(1Co_10:31 )
I HAVE GIVEN YOU THIS TRUTH THAT GOD IS THE ONE
YOU MUST WORSHIP; AND ALL GLORY MUST BE GIVEN
TO HIM DIRECT, AND NOT TO ANY MAN.

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.

THIS TIME HE IS COMING AS A KING AND YOU


KNOW THAT A KING DOES NOT MOVE AROUND
BECAUSE HIS WORKERS ARE THERE.

GO AND TELL THE WORLD THAT CHRIST, ANGELS,


PROPHETS, AND THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE HERE
TO WITNESS THE RULE OF GOD OVER THE UNIVERSE.
GODS WORDS NEVER GO UNFULFILLED.

*** IF YOU TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT THE THREE


LESSONS, YOU WILL SEE THAT EACH IS THE
SECOND VERSE OF THE CHAPTERS CHOSEN. THIS
IS QUITE VERY SIGNIFICANT. IT MEANS SOMETHING
GREAT AND SPLENDID.
Recall when He declared that all powers in
heaven and on the earth have been given to Him.
(Matthew 28:18). This shows that He was equipped
even before He was born on earth. In the first
instance, Our Lord Jesus Christ instructed His
disciples not to go the way of the Gentiles but to go
only to the lost sheep of Israel (Matthew 10:5-6).
That time He was only the King of the Jews.
However after His resurrection, having
conquered hell and hades, and having been given the
kingship over the angels, men and all kings, both

spiritual and physical, He instructed them to go and


make disciples of all nations for Him, by preaching
and baptizing all those who believe. (Mark 16:1518). THIS TIME HE WAS SPEAKING AS THE KING OF
KINGS. NO MATTER WHAT RELIGIOUS BELIEF YOU
HAVE, HE MUST RULE OVER YOU, AND HE IS INDEED
RULING OVER YOU.
In the former times, men of old ordained people
by favoritism and tribalism. IN THIS ERA ALL THINGS
ARE DONE BY GRACE. HE HAS INSTRUCTED THAT
WHOSOEVER BELIEVES AND IS BAPTIZED WILL BE
SAVED. SO THAT IF YOU DO NOT POSSESS THE
HOLY SPIRIT, THEN YOU DO NOT BELONG TO OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST. IT IS ONLY BY THIS BAPTISM
THAT YOU WILL BE GIVEN THE GIFT OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT.
THE KING OF KINGS MEANS THE ONE WHO
RULES OVER ALL OTHER KINGS . Now you are all
kings, not the celebrated mundane ones but HE HAS
ELECTED YOU BY GRACE, AND HE HAS GIVEN YOU
CROWNS. That is why at times when the Holy Spirit
moves in you, you feel a sensation in your head, for
it is your crown and it shines like the bright stars.
What do you mean by such terms as governor,
chairman, or royal highness? ALL THESE ARE
MEANINGLESS IF YOU ARE NOT ELECTED A KING
UNDER THE KING OF KINGS. Let the First Bible
Lesson be read.
3

Heb 7:24 But this man, because he continueth


ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
Heb 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save
them to the uttermost that come unto God by
him, seeing he ever liveth to make
intercession for them.
Heb 7:26 For such an high priest became us,
who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate
from sinners, and made higher than the
heavens;
Heb 7:27 Who needeth not daily, as those high
priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own
sins, and then for the people's: for this he did
once, when he offered up himself.
1 Corinthians 15:28.
"And when all things shall be subdued unto
Him, then shall the Son also be subject
unto Him that put all things under Him, that
God may be all in all."

MENTAL ARITMETICS
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.
Brethren I do not intend to take you further than
this. A stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the
wise. He who has ears let him hear. May the Lord
bless His Holy words, Amen. THANK YOU HOLY
FATHER.

You may have the ability to say a word and a


mountain is transplanted to a distant place or you
may be able to heal the sick and raise the dead but if
you are not that KING OF OTHER KINGS YOU ARE
NOWHERE, YOU ARE NOT THE ONE. THE ANOINTED
ONE IS THE ONLY ONE TO RULE OVER ALL FLESH,
SOULS, SPIRITS AND OTHER CREATURES.
Now a lot of people are worried over the sermon
on one world. They are doubting the possibility of
the entire world being united under one king and one
kingdom. If I may ask, when Adam was in the garden
of Eden, were there two kings and two kingdoms?
There is a spiritual song whose wording says: IF A
MAN WAS DESTINED TO RULE, HE MUST RULE THE
WORLD. It was destined for Adam to rule over human
beings, animals, fishes, waters, trees and all other
creatures. However, from the moment he was
removed, confusion, commotion, and problems set in
and everything scattered. The garden of Eden has
since been scattered with every inmate acting his
own way.
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS DESTINED TO
RULE ALL PEOPLE AND SO WHATEVER YOU LIKE TO
DO, WHETHER PRAYING, FASTING, OR LAMENTING,
CANNOT STOP CHRIST FROM RULING AND
6

REIGNING OVER THE ENTIRE WORLD. HE IS NOW


RULING OVER ALL THINGS, IN HEAVEN, THE EARTH
AND ALL OTHER PLANES OF MANIFEST. WHAT WE
LACK ON EARTH IS NOT MONEY, WEALTH, WISDOM,
LIFE NOR POWER, BUT A TRUE KING.
We do not have a king We do not know the KING
OF KINGS AND NEITHER DO WE RECOGNIZE HIM..
That is why it is said in Luke 19:27 that those his
enemies who do not wish that he should rule over
them bring them hither and slay them. THAT IS THE
ARMAGEDDON WAR YOU ARE TOLD WILL TAKE
PLACE. ALL THOSE WHO DISAGREE WITH HIS RULE
WILL BE SLAIN. THOSE WHO CALL THEMSELVES
QUEENS AND KING ARE ALL PSEUDO KINGS AND
QUEENS. THEY ARE NOT RECOGNIZED BY A MERE
HOUSEFLY OR EVEN THE ANTS.
THEREFORE ANYBODY WHO DOES NOT KNOW
OR RECOGNIZE CHRIST WILL PERISH. FIRE,
ANIMALS, TREES, SPIRITS OR ANYTHING
CREATED, VISIBLE OR INVISIBLE THAT DOES
NOT RECOGNIZE HIS RULE WILL PERISH. OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS NEITHER NOMINATED
NOR ELECTED BY EITHER MAN, ANIMAL,
ANGELS, OR ANY OTHER CREATURE BUT IT WAS
PREDETERMINED FROM THE BEGINNING BY THE
FATHER THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST SHOULD
RULE.

I HAVE GIVEN YOU THIS TRUTH THAT GOD IS


THE ONE YOU MUST WORSHIP; AND ALL GLORY
MUST BE GIVEN TO HIM DIRECT, AND NOT TO
ANY MAN.
TO CALL ME A LEADER IS CORRECT BECAUSE
GOD HAS PROVIDED A LIVING EXAMPLE FOR YOU
IN ME IN ORDER TO LEAD YOU TO GOD'S
KINGDOM. THE QUALITIES YOU SEE IN ME ARE
FOR YOU TO EMULATE. BUT TO CALL ME GOD,
NO PLEASE, I AM NOT THE ONE. THE REASON I
DO NOT WORRY MYSELF TO MOVE FROM ONE
PLACE TO ANOTHER TO PREACH IS BECAUSE
THE FATHER IS HERE, AND ALL THINGS HAVE
BEEN SUBJECTED TO HIM, AND HE IS THE ONE
DOING ALL THINGS. HE IS THE ONE TO
RECONCILE THE WHOLE WORLD TO HIMSELF.
UNDER HIM I AM FREE, JUST AS YOU ARE.
All gifts that you receive are from Him; and all
that you give out are also from Him. I have taught
you all these things. I HAVE GIVEN YOU THIS
TRUTH THAT GOD IS THE ONE YOU MUST

WORSHIP; AND ALL GLORY MUST BE GIVEN TO


HIM DIRECT, AND NOT TO ANY MAN.

THE TOOLS OF LEADERSHIP


Here, equality is the order of the day and peace
reigns supreme. The opposite is the case in the
worldly kingdom. They fight, quarrel, cheat, oppress,
dictate, victimize and embezzle. IN THIS KINGDOM,
THE TOOLS OF LEADERSHIP USED BY THE FATHER
ARE HUMILITY, LOVE, PEACE, MEEKNESS,
GENTLENESS, LONG SUFFERING, PATIENCE,
GOODNESS AMONG OTHER VIRTUES. HE DOES NOT
DISCRIMINATE AGAINST ANYBODY. ALL ARE GIVEN
EQUAL AND FAIR TREATMENT. THE BLIND, DEAF,
DUMB, LAME, POOR, NEEDY, OPPRESSED ARE ALL
INVITED TO SHARE IN THE JOY OF THIS KINGDOM.
An end has been brought to war, anger, hunger,
mourning, division and indeed suffering or hardship
of any form. And since you have hearkened to this
call, you are expected to be charitable in everything
you do as your token of love for one another; and you
should take after your Father. A deviation from this
love accounts for the problems of mankind .
YOU ARE DUTY BOUND TO SPREAD THE GOOD
TIDINGS OF THIS KINGDOM TO EVERY NOOK AND
CRANNY OF THE WORLD. FAILURE TO SPREAD THE
GOSPELS ACCOUNTS FOR THE REASON WHY YOU
FAIL GENERALLY IN LIFE. IN DISSEMINATING THE
10

WORD OF GOD, DO NOT PREACH ABOUT MAN,


MONEY, CHURCH, WEALTH, JUJU; RATHER YOU ARE
TO PREACH ABOUT THE KINGDOM OF GOD. TELL
THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD THAT THE KINGDOMS
OF THIS WORLD HAVE BECOME THE KINGDOMS OF
OUR GOD AND OF HIS CHRIST, THUS PUTTING AN
END TO ALL FORMS OF DIVISION, RANCOR,
VIOLENCE, ENMITY, WAR, OPPRESSION,
DICTATORSHIP, FRAUD AND HARDSHIP.
This marks an end to sin. No one should commit
sin any more. In this kingdom, we are preaching love
and, indeed, oneness. We must not only preach but
we must practice what we preach. This therefore
calls for us to live up to God's desire for mankind. A
local adage states that it is easy to aim but difficult
to shoot. You may say that you are in the kingdom
but are you sure that you have done all that is
required of you before you qualify to inherit this
kingdom?
You are supposed to practice love which is
the will of God for all those who should inherit this
kingdom. Aside from this you are deceiving yourself.
This love should not be projected as a church,
prayer-house, school, club, market, etc. Rather it
should be made to form a perfect patch of our
lifestyle. It should be clearly seen in us so that all
they that see us or hear about us, or even come by
us, may truly know us as children of God.
11

WE SHOULD ALL CRAVE TO BE LIKE OUR


FATHER SO THAT THE SCRIPTURES MIGHT BE
FULFILLED; FOR IT IS RECORDED IN (1 JOHN 3:2)
BELOVED, NOW ARE WE THE SONS OF GOD, AND IT
DOTH NOT YET APPEAR WHAT WE SHALL BE: BUT
WE KNOW THAT, WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE
SHALL BE LIKE HIM; FOR WE SHALL SEE HIM AS HE
IS.
Today have you seen Him? Is He not an
embodiment of love? If indeed He is; are you like
Him? Have you revealed Him as love, peace, charity,
mercy, truth, meekness, humility, and goodness to
the people of the world?
EXCEPT YOU REVEAL YOUR FATHER TO THE
PEOPLE OF THE WORLD, THEY WILL NOT KNOW
HIM. DIFFERENTLY PUT, LET YOUR LIFESTYLE
REVEAL GOD TO THE WORLD. IF YOU HAVE NOT
DONE THIS THEN YOU ARE TOYING WITH YOUR
MANDATE.
In this kingdom, you are told that PEACE is used
in greeting one another. How can this peace reign
when many have not known nor heard about God?
Let the people know God as love, peace, joy, oneness
and the veritable truth.
Brotherhood is unique. It is different from the
things and gathering or associations you have known
before.

12

Recall that the church, healing homes; healing,


prophesying, and preaching the gospel had long
existed before this period or even before this present
time. Even the payment of tithes and freewill offering
have since been done.
BUT THE WAY THESE THINGS ARE DONE IN
THIS KINGDOM IS QUITE DIFFERENT FROM HOW
THEY WERE DONE BEFORE. BROTHERHOOD OF THE
CROSS AND STAR IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND HIS
CHRIST, IN CONFIRMATION OF THE SCRIPTURE AS
RECORDED AT HEBREWS 8:8-12.
IN THIS KINGDOM WE DO NOT PLAY WITH WORDS
BUT IT IS A KINGDOM WHERE PRACTICALITY IS THE
ORDER OF THE DAY. HERE WE SPREAD THE WORD
OF GOD AND WE ALSO PRACTICE WHAT WE TEACH.
THE PROPHETS OF OLD WERE KNOWN TO BE
PREACHING THE GOSPEL BUT THEY COULD NOT
PRACTICE THOSE THINGS THEY TEACH. BUT TODAY,
THE REVERSE IS THE CASE. WE TEACH THE WORD
OF GOD. AND IF THE LOVE AS PRACTICED HERE IS
NOT SEEN IN YOU, THEN YOU DO NOT BELONG
HERE.
In this kingdom, we have nothing to do any more
with the flesh. We no more fornicate, quarrel, fight,
hate, kill or indulge in idolatry. All we do and rejoice
in is righteousness. You do not have to do that which
contradicts the Word of God. Love, and indeed true

13

love, must glaringly be seen in everything you do.

GOD'S WORDS NEVER GO


UNFULFILLED .
*GO AND TELL THE WORLD THAT CHRIST,
ANGELS, PROPHETS, AND THE CHILDREN OF
GOD ARE HERE TO WITNESS THE RULE OF GOD
OVER THE UNIVERSE. GOD'S WORDS NEVER GO
UNFULFILLED.
God who is now on earth has instructed us to
love one another just as He loves us. YOU MUST
OBEY HIS VOICE. WE MUST LOVE HIM BECAUSE
HE LOVES US, AND CALLS US HIS CHILDREN.
OUR BEING GODS IS ALSO BECAUSE HE WISHES
US TO BE THUS, ALL TO HIS GLORY. TODAY HE
HAS INFORMED US THAT ALL THINGS HAVE
BEEN SUBJECTED TO HIM, AND THAT ALL GLORY
SHOULD BE GIVEN TO HIM. GOD HAS COME
DOWN TO RULE THIS WORLD FOR ETERNITY. GO
AND TELL THE WORLD THAT CHRIST, ANGELS,

14

PROPHETS, AND THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE


HERE TO WITNESS THE RULE OF GOD OVER THE
UNIVERSE. GOD'S WORDS NEVER GO
UNFULFILLED.
It was prophesied that a virgin will conceive and
bear a male child. This was so. (Isa 7:14).
Another prophesy had it that a woman will
conceive and bear a male child, and that this
child will rule the whole world (Isa 9:6) with an
iron rod (Rev 12:5). This has also been fulfilled.
Another prophesy said that God will, at His
appointed time, make His dwelling among men
(Lev 26:11-12). Today, this prophesy is fulfilled.
(Rev 21:3). "God is here now to take control over
all things. Give glory to God, the Father, always."
When Jesus Christ was on the Cross He cried
with a loud voice: "My God, my God, why hast
thou forsaken me?" (Matt 27:46 / Mark 15:34). If
God did not get out from Him, He would not have
been killed. SO TODAY THAT GOD HAS COME TO
DWELL WITH YOU. WHAT CAN A MAN DO TO
YOU? WHY DO YOU PANIC AND FEAR? YOU HAVE
MAXIMUM PROTECTION, SECURITY AND
SATISFACTION. FOR AGES NOW MAN HAS TRIED
BY HIS OWN EFFORTS TO FORSAKE SIN. BUT HE
15

HAS BEEN UNABLE. BUT NOW GOD HAS COME TO


CHANGE PEOPLE, AND SANCTIFY THEM FOR
HIMSELF. LET ALL THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE
IN THE EXISTENCE OF GOD WEEP; FOR THEY
MUST SEE GOD IN HIS FULL GLORY AND
MAJESTY NOW. May we hear the golden text.

THE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.
BY OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU

HEED GODS WORDS:


God has never deceived any person and he
will never deceive any one forever and forever.
That is why it is said that the testimonies of two
people will always confirm a fact. The first and
second lessons are the direct words from God
and the Golden Text constitutes the reward for
keeping to terms the demands in the two
lessons.

16

You may realize that it is impossible for


anybody to give another eternal life, but here
God has promised that whoever believes in Him
has eternal life. Your father cannot give you
eternal life. Your mother cannot give you eternal
life. Your local government cannot give you
eternal life, and your state cannot provide you
eternal life. Do what you may to any person on
earth, that person cannot give you eternal life.
Your local government does not have eternal life.
God is the only who has promised to give you
eternal life because he is the only person with
eternal and can give eternal life. The Scripture
confirms this as it states that the wages of sin is
death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ
Jesus. That is why He has instructed that you
should not labor for the food which perishes.
Labor for food that will endure till eternity which
the son of man will give you because He was the
one who was sealed for the day of redemption.
Can you realize now that you have erred? You
pray that God should give you money, wife, and
motor cars. Is that eternal life? When you thank
God that you have passed an examination, you

17

thank him for the good health He has bestowed


on you; you thank him because you have been
able to erect a storey building, are these all that
He promised to give you? He has said, Whoever
believes in me has eternal life.
You do not know what is meant by eternal
life. It is a pathetic situation to find some people
who say they are looking for money so they go to
the kingdom of Satan where they can have
money, marry a wife and have what to eat. Such
people are abominable people. It is pitiful to find
somebody saying, I want to continue in the
church of my forefathers because I am holding a
big position there. I cannot relinquish that
position to attend another church. The gospel
does not say that when you go to church, you will
have eternal life. It does not say that when you
become a bishop you will have eternal life. It
says, Whoever believes in me has eternal life.
There is no prophet who can give you eternal
life. There is no church which can give you
eternal life; and there is no pastor who can give
you eternal life. If you believe in Our Lord Jesus
Christ and you practice His teachings then you
18

will have eternal life. As at now all the church


denominations have failed. There is no church
that believes in Him. The very name church will
remind you that Our Lord Jesus Christ did not
form any church denomination. Even though
people name various church denominations that
they have founded as The Church of Christ,
Church of the Lord, tell me, which church did
Our Lord Jesus Christ found? Which church did
He say if you attend you have everlasting life?
Christ was a crusader. He is the head of the
Crusaders. Whoever believes in Him and walks in
His footsteps and does the work which Christ
did, such a person has eternal life.
Many people are questioning the need for
them to refrain from fornication, theft, as well as
denouncing secret societies. It become
necessary to forsake these vices and follow Our
Lord Jesus Christ because if you do so will gain
eternal life. He has said, If any man comes to
me and hates not his father, and mother, and
wife, and children, and brethren, and sister, yea
his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And
whoever does not bear his cross and come after

19

me, cannot be my disciple. He has added that


whoever does not forsake all that he has cannot
be His disciple. Who are those who have eternal
life? They are those who comply with the
statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Because if
you do not hate your life, your father, your
mother, your brethren, you cannot be his disciple.
And if you do not forsake these relations, it
means you do not believe in Him.
If you do not carry your cross and follow
after Him, if you do not go from house to house
and from street to street to tell others about
Him, how would you hope to be His disciple? If
you do not forsake all that you do, fornication,
robbery, diabolism, the thoughts of things of this
world, how can you become the disciple of Our
Lord Jesus Christ? Remember that lawyer who
went to Our Lord Jesus Christ and told him,
Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal
life? He told him, Thou knowest the
commandments, do not commit adultery, do not
kill, do not steal, do not bear false witness;
honor thy father and thy mother. And the man
said, All these have I kept from my youth up.

20

Jesus said unto him, Yet lackest thou thing, sell


all that thou hast and distribute unto the poor
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and
come and follow me.
Keeping the word of God and following after
him are exactly like going into a primary school
before you proceed to the secondary school and
the university levels. It is also like when you
want to count the numerals. You have to start
with zero(0). The teaching God started with
Adam and Eve and later with Cain and Abel was
laying the foundation lesson which was delivered
to them and which still continues till today.
Whatever God tells you to do, if you believe
and practice it, you will have eternal life. GOD
DOES NOT HAVE TWO TEACHINGS. THERE IS
ONLY ONE TEACHING AND IT IS THAT WHOEVER
BELIEVES IN ME, WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. He
told Adam and Eve, Eat of all the fruits in this
garden except the one at the center, else the day
you eat of it you will die. That was the tree of
the knowledge of good and evil. You cannot
attest to the fact that if Adam had eaten all the
fruits and had complied with the order of God by
21

not eating of the forbidden fruit, they would not


have died. This would imply that they did believe
in Him. Why did they die? They were given a
definite instruction that they should not eat that
forbidden fruit but because they did not believe
in Him, they went ahead to eat the forbidden
fruit. Ipso facto, the scripture that the wages of
sin is death got fulfilled. They died from that day.
If they had not eaten the fruit till today, they
would still be here and there would be no death
for us today. Can you see the commencement of
this word about eternal life? Cain and Abel were
born into the instruction to go and sacrifice to
God. Abel took the fattest of all his rams to
sacrifice to God. Cain went and used a little yam
in sacrificing, saying that God did not need
anything other than the heart. It was for that
reason that it was counted unto Abel as
righteousness and he was given eternal life
because Abel believed in God. And that is exactly
what happened up to the time of Abraham.
God instructed that Abraham should take his only
begotten son to sacrifice unto Him. If you believe
in God you will have eternal life. At any time you

22

have a sincere belief in God, and you do


whatever He tells you to do, you will have eternal
life. Eternal life is not derived from building a
structure and calling it a church. Before the
advent of the Christian churches, people had
already known God better than the people of
today know God.
There has never been a time when God was
not in existence and there has never been a time
when God did not have people. During the time of
Noah, there were no churches. During the time of
Abraham, there were no church denominations.
The establishment of Church denominations
came in recent times. You may be a witness to
the fact that even during the time of David there
were no churches. It was the fact that the ark of
covenant was carried about from place to place,
which made David decide to build a permanent
place for it. When he saw lack of a permanent
place for the ark, he said he was going to build a
house for God. But God told him not to build Him
a house because Davids hands were defiled with
blood but that his son would build the house.
Solomon built a house for God but God does not

23

live in houses built by the hand of men. Building


houses is nothing and that is not what God
requires primarily. Building of houses cannot
take you into the kingdom of God.
THE IMPORTANT THING IS TO OBEY THE
VOICE OF GOD. IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE
WORD, AND GOD IS THE WORD. When God says
stand here and you stand, do not stand there,
and you heed to that advice, you are free.
God is the Spirit and the Truth. If you believe
in Him, you will do whatever He tells you and you
will have eternal life. What made Abraham the
friend of God was that Abraham obeyed the voice
of God. Abraham heeded all the instructions
given to him by God and he walked according to
the footsteps of God. When he was seventy-five
years old, God ordered that he should pack from
his homeland to another place and he obeyed.
Whatever God told Abraham to do, Abraham
obeyed. That is worshiping God in spirit and in
truth. If therefore we believe in God, we should
put into practice what God tells us and that
obedience attracts eternal life.

24

STAGES OF TEACHINGS:
God passed through an angel to give Moses
the ten commandments. Those were the
elementary part of the doctrine. Abraham was
examined by God when He was told that his
descendants shall be in bondage for four hundred
years. But after the period of bondage and
servitude, He would bring them out so as to
serve God. That was the beginning of the primary
element of the present day principle. Exactly the
same principle was given to Adam when God told
him to, Eat of all the trees in the garden, except
one. If the Israelites had kept to the laws by not
having another God, they would not have died.
When they received the ten commandments, they
rejoiced a great deal. It is said, The fear of the
Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and so God was
testing them to see if they would obey Him. If
they had obeyed God would have followed and we
would have benefitted today. But because of the
fact that they went after other gods, they were
destroyed by the destroyer. They committed
fornication and they were killed by the serpents.

25

They also murmured against God and they were


slain in the desert. They did not believe in God.
When Jesus the Christ came He had His own
principle. His teachings were great but they were
merely the means to an end. They were not really
the end. John told the people that there was one
who had been before him and who was greater
than him, John, whose shoe latchet he was not
worthy to untie. He further told them that he was
baptizing them with water but the one who was
before him would baptize people with the Holy
Spirit. John did not eat nor did he drink anything.
That was another teaching which has roots to
ours now. JOHN BROUGHT FORTH THE
TEACHING OF PURIFICATION AND
SANCTIFICATION SO THAT ONE MAY BE ABLE TO
SEE THE CHRIST AND BELIEVE IN HIM. That was
why Our Lord Jesus Christ said, Of all the
people born of women, none is greater than John
except he that is least in the kingdom of God.
From time immemorial God has been living
with men on earth but if one is not clean and
pure, one cannot see Him; one cannot know Him
or walk with Him. But that does not stop God
26

from being God. Since it has pleased God to


reveal himself through the son, He sent John as a
forerunner to come and turn the hearts of the
fathers unto the children and to make the people
ready to receive Him. The greatest thing is
FAITH. If you do not have faith in someone, how
will you do what the person tells you? IF YOU
REJECT GOD AND HIS WORD WHAT WILL
ACTUALLY SAVE YOU? This is the downfall of
Israel and indeed the downfall of the entire
world. They reject Our Lord Jesus Christ and His
teachings. That is why Christ said, Whoever
believes in me has eternal life. It was on
account of the teachings of John the Baptist to
the people that made them believe in Our Lord
Jesus Christ.
Most church denominations do not bother about
the importance of faith. They only ask if
someone believes in Our Lord Jesus Christ. If the
person answers yes, they will tell the person he
can gain entry into Gods kingdom, oblivious of
the fact that there are other very important
virtues which are required. IT WAS THE FOR
BELIEF IN THE DEITY OF OUR LORD JESUS AS

27

THE CHRIST OF GOD THAT DISCIPLES OF OUR


LORD JESUS CHRIST WERE KILLED. To the
churches, whether one refrained from sin or not
does not matter. That was the secondary stage
of the doctrine of Christ. The real thing, being
the university teaching is what we now have in
Brother hood of the Cross and Star.
At that particular time however, faith was
very significant because there had been an
announcement everywhere and people had
promulgated edicts and laws that God has no
child. Even though it was written in Psalm 82: 6
I have said ye are gods and all of you are the
children of the Most High, the Jews had decreed
that any day a person would call himself a son of
God, such a person would be killed. Many people
do not know why Our Lord Jesus Christ was
actually killed. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS
KILLED BECAUSE HE CALLED HIMSELF THE SON
OF GOD. The people were inflamed and they
asked why a human being should equate himself
with God.
*The greatest work of God is for you to stand
up and point to a person and say, This man
28

standing here is the son of God. It us the


greatest assignment you can perform. It is the
foundation of our faith. THAT IS WHY THE
SCRIPTURE QUERIES WHO THE ANTICHRIST IS
BUT THE PERSON WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT
JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH. Right
now people are bothering themselves that
somebody should be called Christ. Was Our Lord
Jesus Christ not a man? If people actually
worshiped Him then, what is the difference? You
have now been afforded with the greatest
opportunity to see God face to face. If somebody
is known as the Son of God then the way is paved
for the Father to be known. That is why he said,
For this is the covenant that I will make with the
house of Israel after those days. I will put my
laws in their minds and write them in their
hearts; and I will be to them a God and they shall
be to me a people. And they shall not teach every
man his neighbor, and every man his brother
saying know the Lord, for all shall know me (Not
the Son), from the least to the greatest. For I will
be merciful unto their unrighteousness, and their
sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

29

DO NOT BE SURPRISED BECAUSE THIS IS


THE FULLNESS OF TIME. AT FIRST PEOPLE WERE
TALKING OF SEEING THE SON OF GOD BUT NOW
THE FATHER HAS REVEALED HIMSELF TO EVERY
PERSON ON EARTH. AND THIS IS THE FULLNESS
OF TIME THAT HE SHOULD REVEAL HIMSELF TO
ALL. BECAUSE WHOEVER BELIEVES IN THE SON
HAS THE FATHER. THE ETERNAL PROMISE
IMPLIES THAT YOU MUST KNOW THE FATHER
AND ALSO KNOW THE SON WHO IS OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST.(JOHN 17:3 And this is life
eternal, that they might know thee the only true
God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent).

THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER, AND
SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
Excerpt from the gospel: PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE

CHRIST MUST SUBJECT EVERYTHING TO


THE FATHER
Second Bible Lesson: 1 Corinthians 15:28.
30

And when all things shall be subdued unto


Him, then shall the Son also be subject
unto Him that put all things under Him, that
God may be all in all.
IT IS TRUE THAT GOD SUBJECTED
EVERYTHING TO CHRIST. BUT NOW CHRIST
MUST SUBJECT EVERYTHING TO THE
FATHER SO THAT THE FATHER MAY BE ALL
THINGS, AND DO ALL THINGS. NOW IS THE
FULLNESS OF TIME. NOW IS THE TIME FOR
THE GLORY TO BE GIVEN TO THE FATHER
SINCE JESUS CHRIST HAS NOW
SUBJECTED ALL THINGS TO HIM. If you say
that all things are done by the Father, it
means that the Son, the angels and the
children of God are inclusive. But if you say
you are the one doing the work, or that the
work is either done by the Son or the
angels, you have disgraced God.
Where then is God? And where were you
when the Son was sent? Did you not hear
the Son crying with a loud voice on the
31

cross, saying: "My God, my God, why hast


thou forsaken me?" That is why the worldly
people say that there must be something
hidden underneath in Brotherhood. Why?
Because even Jesus, the Son of God, came
and died; and at times when they plot
against you, and fail woefully, they wonder
what force should have overcome their plot.
Or when in your place of work a termination
paper is made for you, but later turns out to
be your promotion, they become bloodstilled. Or even when they spend sleepless
nights planning evil against you, and you
are enjoying an undisturbed sleep, they
wonder. These and many other surprises
give the world food for thought, that there
must be something underneath here in
Brotherhood. Are these evidences not
enough for you to give glory to God?
If in your office you are promoted, and you
attributed the promotion to God by saying:
"I thank God for promoting me, "your boss
32

will be mad at you, and may most likely


withdraw your promotion because you do
not give him the glory. If I had not told you
this thing then you would be correct to say
that I am the one doing the work, but now
that I have told you that God is the one
doing all the works, you are inexcusable.
Therefore anyone saying that Leader Obu is
the one doing the work is a liar, and if
Leader Obu says he is the one doing these
works, it is false. God forbid! I HAVE NEVER
SAID SO, BUT RATHER THAT ALL PRAISES
AND GLORY SHOULD BE GIVEN TO GOD
THE FATHER THE DOER OF THESE THINGS.
ALL THAT YOU DO HERE, WHETHER YOU
KNEEL DOWN, KNOCK YOUR FOREHEADS
ON THE GROUND, OR ADDRESS A LETTER
TO ME, YOU ARE IN FACT DOING THESE
THINGS NOT TO ME BUT TO GOD THE
FATHER.
Brethren, I have examined myself very well.
I do not have any power of my own. I have
33

no wisdom of my own. I am not a preacher


neither am I the doer of anything. You must
know that EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE GODS,
YOU ARE NOT GOD. AND ALTHOUGH YOU
ARE SONS, YOU ARE NOT THE SON. YOU
MUST KNOW THAT THIS IS THE TIME TO
GIVE GOD HIS DUE GLORY. DO NOT SEEK
ANY GLORY AGAIN BECAUSE THE ONE
THAT HAS THE LEGAL RIGHT HAS COME TO
RULE.
Those who charge money for the powerful
works they perform do so because they
perceive that power belongs to them. This
is false. ALL OF YOU ARE GOD'S VESSELS
AND TOOLS. THEREFORE GIVE GLORY TO
GOD IN ALL THAT HE DOES FROM DAY TO
DAY. BRETHREN, PUT THIS GOSPEL INTO
PRACTICE BECAUSE THE SON HAS
SURRENDERED ALL THINGS TO THE
FATHER, AND THE FATHER HAS BECOME
ALL THINGS.

34

TO CALL ME A LEADER IS CORRECT


BECAUSE GOD HAS PROVIDED A LIVING
EXAMPLE FOR YOU IN ME IN ORDER TO
LEAD YOU TO GOD'S KINGDOM. THE
QUALITIES YOU SEE IN ME ARE FOR YOU
TO EMULATE. BUT TO CALL ME GOD, NO
PLEASE, I AM NOT THE ONE. THE REASON I
DO NOT WORRY MYSELF TO MOVE FROM
ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER TO PREACH IS
BECAUSE THE FATHER IS HERE, AND ALL
THINGS HAVE BEEN SUBJECTED TO HIM,
AND HE IS THE ONE DOING ALL THINGS. HE
IS THE ONE TO RECONCILE THE WHOLE
WORLD TO HIMSELF. UNDER HIM I AM
FREE, JUST AS YOU ARE.
All gifts that you receive are from Him; and
all that you give out are also from Him. I
have taught you all these things. I HAVE
GIVEN YOU THIS TRUTH THAT GOD IS THE
ONE YOU MUST WORSHIP; AND ALL GLORY
MUST BE GIVEN TO HIM DIRECT, AND NOT
TO ANY MAN.
35

God who is now on earth has instructed us


to love one another just as He loves us.
YOU MUST OBEY HIS VOICE. WE MUST
LOVE HIM BECAUSE HE LOVES US, AND
CALLS US HIS CHILDREN. OUR BEING GODS
IS ALSO BECAUSE HE WISHES US TO BE
THUS, ALL TO HIS GLORY. Today He has
informed us that all things have been
subjected to Him, and that all glory should
be given to Him. God has come down to rule
this world for eternity. Go and tell the world
that Christ, angels, prophets, and the
children of God are here to witness the rule
of God over the universe. God's words never
go unfulfilled.
It was prophesied that a virgin will
conceive and bear a male child. This was
so. (Isa 7:14). Another prophesy had it that
a woman will conceive and bear a male
child, and that this child will rule the whole
world (Isa 9:6) with an iron rod (Rev 12:5).
This has also been fulfilled.
36

Another prophesy said that God will, at His


appointed time, make His dwelling among
men (Lev 26:11-12). Today, this prophesy is
fulfilled. (Rev 21:3). "God is here now to
take control over all things. Give glory to
God, the Father, always."
When Jesus Christ was on the Cross He
cried with a loud voice: "My God, my God,
why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matt 27:46 /
Mark 15:34). If God did not get out from
Him, He would not have been killed. SO
TODAY THAT GOD HAS COME TO DWELL
WITH YOU. WHAT CAN A MAN DO TO YOU?
WHY DO YOU PANIC AND FEAR? YOU HAVE
MAXIMUM PROTECTION, SECURITY AND
SATISFACTION. FOR AGES NOW MAN HAS
TRIED BY HIS OWN EFFORTS TO FORSAKE
SIN. BUT HE HAS BEEN UNABLE. BUT NOW
GOD HAS COME TO CHANGE PEOPLE, AND
SANCTIFY THEM FOR HIMSELF. LET ALL
THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE
EXISTENCE OF GOD WEEP; FOR THEY MUST
37

SEE GOD IN HIS FULL GLORY AND


MAJESTY NOW. May we hear the golden
text.

BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU


THE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.
EXCERPT FROM : I AM NOT GOD BUT OLUMBA OLUMBA
OBU

THE HOLY SPIRIT


Our Lord Jesus Christ is the beginning and
the end. He existed even before the
foundation of the world was laid. This is
why he had the boldness to say that He
existed before Abraham was. See the Bible
Text below: Verily, verily, I say unto you,
before Abraham was. I am. (John 8:58). In
John 17:5 He also resounded His earlier
existence as He said: And now, 0 Father,
glorify thou me with thy own self with the

38

glory which I had with thee before the


world was. (John 17:5).
This is food for thought for the inhabitants
of the world. Ponder over this excerpt. To
whom do you think such magnifying glory
(that which was kept from the beginning of
the world) would be given? Note that this is
not the era when God should be revealed to
another by his neighbor or brother.
(Hebrews 8:11). We have been referring to
God as God of Abraham, Isaac Jacob and
other patriarchs, yet this same personality
has authoritatively declared that he
existed even before Abraham. Who then is
this personality ? HE IS THE WORD OF GOD.
HE IS THE POWER OF GOD. HE IS THE
TRUTH. HE IS THE HOLY SPIRIT AND
ETERNAL LIFE. He received the greatest
tribulation and suffering. He suffered a
series of humiliations and deprivations. But

39

today, He is the one to be glorified, above


every other person in the world.
Of all the people that have ever existed,
Our Lord Jesus Christ is the only one who
exemplified humility in its true form. He
subjected Himself to crucifixion the most
disgraceful of all deaths. Consider a
situation where Peter, one of His disciples
wanted to defend Him with a sword, and He
scolded Him as recorded in Matthew 26:52
54 Put up again thy sword into its place:
for all they that take the sword shall perish
with the sword.
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my
Father, and He shall give me more than
twelve legions of angels? But how then can
the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must
be?
In fact His goodness is without comparison.
In leadership, patience, longsuffering,
among other virtues, there is none to
40

compete with Him. His recondite wisdom


confounds the whole world. If your
preaching centers on Moses, Abraham, and
other patriarchs, know that you are
preaching about human beings. It is said
that whatever has a beginning must surely
have an end. Accordingly, your preaching
will come to an end. However if you preach
about Our Lord Jesus Christ you are
invariably preaching about the Holy Spirit
and your preaching will endure forever.
PREACH THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS
THE SON OF MAN, THE SON OF GOD, AND
GOD HIMSELF. HE IS THE PROPHET, THE
HIGH PRIEST, THE LORD AND KING WHO
LIVES FOREVER. HIS KINGDOM HAS
NEITHER A BEGINNING NOR AN END. This
is the full witness about Our Lord Jesus
Christ. However, from Adam, nobody knew
or recognized Him as Christ, only the
Almighty God who formed the heaven and
the earth and the fullness thereof.
41

If you preach about Christ, you are


invariably preaching about God and His
whole creation.
Those who claim that Christ was the son of
Joseph and Mary are advised to consider
the Biblical excerpt below:
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thy
own self with the glory which I had with
thee before the world was. (John 17:5)
The question now is, did Joseph and Mary
exist before the foundation of the world
was laid? Another school of thought refers
to Christ as the son of David. This class
should be directed to this authority: He
saith unto them, How then doth David in
Spirit call Him Lord, saying, The Lord said
unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till
I make thine enemies thy footstool? If David
then call Him Lord. how is he his son?
(Matt 22: 43 45)

42

ANOTHER GROUP OF PEOPLE CALL HIM


JESUS OF NAZARETH. THIS GROUP HAVE
ALSO ERRED BECAUSE NAZARETH OF
YESTERDAY DID NOT EXIT BEFORE THE
FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD WAS LAID.
THOSE WHO REFER TO HIM AS AN
ISRAELITE ARE ALSO MISTAKEN. WHEN
THE WORLD WAS VOID AND WITHOUT
FORM, WAS THERE ANY COUNTRY OR
NATION LIKE ISRAEL? All these are men's
folly. HENCEFORTH LET IT BE KNOWN THAT
OUR CHRIST IS THE FATHER, THE SON,
AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. Your ignorance
about the deity of Christ constitute the
problem of the entire world. This is so
because, if you do not know a person, you
are bound to give a false witness or report
about such a person.
In Brotherhood of the Cross and Star from
January first to December thirty first of
every year, we preach and bear witness

43

about Our Lord Jesus Christ. Our songs and


testimonies are also about Him and His
glory. IT IS ERRONEOUS TO REFER TO HIM
AS JESUS; LIKE HE IS JUST ANOTHER
HUMAN BEING. THE TRUTH IS THAT HE IS
GOD, THE CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND
EARTH. HE IS THE I AM THAT I AM, THE
EVER EXISTING GOD. MANY PEOPLE ARGUE
THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT CANNOT MANIFEST
AS MAN AND THAT THE SPIRIT IS NOT
HUMAN. THIS IS A TERRIBLE
MISCONCEPTION. WHAT ABOUT OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST? DID HE NOT MANIFEST IN
THE FORM OF
A HUMAN BEING? THOSE WHO ARGUE
THAT GOD CANNOT BE SEEN BY MORTAL
EYES ARE ALSO MISTAKEN. WAS JESUS
THE CHRIST NOT GOD; AND WAS, HE NOT
SEEN? ANOTHER CLASS OF PEOPLE CLAIM
THAT GOD IS SUSPENDED UP THERE IN
HEAVEN, ABOVE THE SKY. WHAT ABOUT

44

JESUS WHO MANIFESTED AMONG MEN AND


WAS SEEN BY ALL AND SUNDRY? IF YOU
ARE NOW CONVINCED THAT JESUS CHRIST
WAS GOD IN HUMAN FORM YOU MUST TELL
OTHERS THAT GOD HIMSELF IS NOW ON
EARTH.
In accordance with the scriptures He was
to be called Emmanuel, i.e. God with us.
However, at his birth, the angel changed
His name to Jesus.
THE TRIUNE GOD HAS REEMERGED:
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST CONSTITUTES
THE TRINITY GODHEAD. WHY IS HE CALLED
THE TRINITY ? IT IS BECAUSE HE HAD
EXISTED EVEN WHEN
THERE WAS NO WORLD. HE MANIFESTED
AS THE FATHER IN DIFFERENT ASPECTS TO
FORM THE WORLD AND THE FULLNESS
THEREOF. THIS WAS HIS FIRST ADVENT.

45

WHEN HE CAME BACK TO RECONCILE MAN


BACK TO THE FATHER. HE ASSUMED
ANOTHER TITLE, THE SON OF GOD, TO
ENABLE HIM EXECUTE THAT SPECIAL
ASSIGNMENT. THIS WAS HIS SECOND
ADVENT. IN THIS THIRD AND FINAL
ADVENT, SINCE HE HAS ALREADY
SUCCESSFULLY RECONCILED MAN WITH
THE FATHER, HE HAS COME BACK AS THE
HOLY SPIRIT. IN THESE THREE ADVENTS
OF THE TRINITY'S MANIFESTATION, LET IT
BE KNOWN THAT IT IS JUST ONE PERSON
WHO HAS BEEN COMING WITH DIFFERENT
NAMES FOR THESE SPECIAL
ASSIGNMENTS.
WHY DOES THE WHOLE WORLD LACK THIS
WISDOM? OF COURSE, IT IS GOD WHO
DEPRIVES US OF THE ABILITY TO
COMPREHEND THAT HE ALONE EXISTS. As
a matter of fact it is erroneous to believe in
the existence of ghost, mermaid, incubus.

46

juju or any diabolical substance. God alone


exists, and nothing else is in existence
beside Him. It is however
pathetic that the entire people of world the
world, being in darkness are ignorant of
this.
BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU
THE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR

THIS TIME HE IS COMING AS A KING AND YOU

KNOW THAT A KING DOES NOT MOVE


AROUND BECAUSE HIS WORKERS ARE THERE.

GOLDEN TEXT: JOHN 1: 11


He came unto his own, and his own
received him not. To whom does this refer?
Who is that person who goes to his own but
his own received him not? Do you not argue
47

that God is not man? But God said, ALET US


MAKE MAN IN OUR OWN IMAGE AFTER OUR
LIKENESS. THE US REFERS TO THE
FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. But
now you argue that God is not man. Is he an
animal or a rock? Is he an angel? Answer
me, you wise men. HE CAME IN HIS OWN
LIKENESS. HIS LIKENESS IS MAN. HE
COMES AS A MAN AND ON EVERY 25TH DAY
OF DECEMBER EVERYBODY EATS AND
REJOICES THAT THE VIRGIN MARY HAS
GIVEN BIRTH TO A BABY BOY. BUT NO
PERSON BELIEVES IN HIM. And so the
above scripture refers to Our Lord Jesus
Christ, He came in the manger as a man.
But did you receive Him? Who received
Him? If he did not fill the boat of Peter with
fishes, Peter would not have followed Him.
When He told His disciples how he must go
to Jerusalem and Chief Priest and Scribes,
and be killed and raised again on the third

48

day, Peter took Him aside and began to


rebuke Him: This shall not be unto thee.
Peter said this because he had read that
Christ would not die, forever he will not die
and so if Jesus was going to face death
now it would mean that he, Peter, had made
a mistake in following Him. Can you say
that he knew or understood Our Lord Jesus
Christ? That is one. Another thing is that all
that Jesus spoke to them in public when
they were alone, with Him, they would ask
Him to explain to them. At another time,
Peter said: We have left everything and
followed you, what shall be our gain? Does
that question show that Peter believed in
Him? I can continue to cite instances to
you to convince you that no person believed
in Him; but He can use anything to manifest
His own glory. THEY WERE FOLLOWING HIM
BECAUSE HE WILLED IT SO; IT WAS NOT
OUT OF THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF HIM THAT
THEY FOLLOWED HIM. TAKE THE CASE OF
49

JOHN THE BAPTIST WHO REVEALED HIM


TO THE WHOLE OF ISRAEL AS THE CHRIST;
DID HE NOT DENY CHRIST? Did he know
Him? When he was put in prison by Herod,
he remembered that the scriptures had said
that when Christ came He would deliver the
captives and set at liberty those that are
bruised and so John consoled himself that
Christ would come and remove him from
prison immediately. But as he waited no
person came; and so he sent two of his
disciples unto Christ to find out if He was
the expected one or they were to wait for
another. Did John believe in Him? Do not
joke with the Word of God.
When you hear that a great multitude
followed Jesus it was because of the bread
and fish He used to feed them with. There
was no person who followed Him with the
conviction that He was God, or the Christ.
UNLESS HE INJECTS HIS SPIRIT INTO YOU

50

SO THAT YOU CAN PERCEIVE THIS TRUTH,


YOU CANNOT KNOW HIM. HE CAN ENTER
INTO YOU IN A MOMENT AND YOUR EYES
WILL BECOME CLEAR AND HE WILL
IMMEDIATELY CLOSE IT UP. HE CHANGES
INTO ANOTHER FORM AND YOU WILL FALL
BACK INTO YOUR DOUBT. GOD IS TERRIBLY
WONDERFUL.
Earthly things are used to illustrate
heavenly things. If he did not make bread
for the people to eat who would have
listened to Him? His creature will follow
Him. You have heard what He said: NO MAN
KNOWS THE FATHER, EXCEPT HE SON, AND
NO MAN KNOWS THE SON, EXCEPT THE
FATHER AND TO WHOM HE WOULD REVEAL
HIM. That is where the whole thing hangs.
JESUS CHRIST IS HERE WITH THE FATHER.
THEY ARE EATING AND WORKING WITH
YOU BUT CAN YOU SEE THEM? You cannot
see them, you do what you must do, as you

51

have always done. Because it is said: HE


CAME UNTO HIS OWN BUT HIS OWN
RECEIVED HIM NOT. Did His brothers
receive Him? DID THEY NOT REJECT 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

52

YOU HAVE THAT SPIRIT YOU WILL


RESURRECT.
WHEN THE SOLDIERS PIERCED HIS SIDE,
THERE CAME OUT WATER AND BLOOD
FROM HIM, AND THAT WATER IS THE
CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD. THE BLOOD IS
MAN, AND SO HE WAS THE SON OF MAN,
SON OF GOD AND GOD HIMSELF. THAT WAS
THE REASON JOHN WAS TOLD TO BAPTIZE
WITH WATER. THE WATER IS CHRIST. AND
CHRIST HIMSELF SAYS THAT EXCEPT YOU
ARE BORN OF WATER AND SPIRIT, YOU
CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD. THAT
IS WHY IT IS SAID THAT AS MANY AS HAVE
BEEN BURIED WITH HIM IN SPIRIT IN
BAPTISM HAVE PUT ON CHRIST. (Gal.3:27).
YOU HAVE BEEN READING THE BIBLE BUT
HAVE YOU EVER HAD THIS REVELATION
GIVEN UNTO YOU NOW? AFTER BAPTISM
HE BESTOWS THE HOLY SPIRIT ON YOU
AND YOU THEN HAVE THE FATHER, THE

53

SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. EVERYTHING


IS CONSUMMATED. HE IS THE SON OF MAN,
THE SON OF GOD AND HE IS HERE RIGHT
NOW BUT CAN YOU SEE HIM? DO YOU
BELIEVE IN HIM?
In the Book of Revelation 12:5 it is written
that a woman brought forth a man child
who was to rule all nations with a rod of
iron. When hunting a strong or large animal
one needs an exceptionally matching
powerful bullet. Man is not a single
creature and so He has to rule all nations
with a rod of iron. You wonder why I always
laugh when I say these things, but why
should I not laugh? I have to laugh. On that
fateful day, He told His disciples that they
would all deny Him and forsake Him. But
Peter said that even if all forsook Him, I will
never forsake you. But when the time came
he was the first person to deny Him. THIS
WILL SHOW YOU THAT THIS ELECTION IS

54

EXTENDED TO US FREE OF CHARGE. IT IS


NOT BECAUSE OF YOUR GOODNESS OR
YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS; IT IS NOT
BECAUSE OF YOUR FAITH OR YOUR
DESIRE. BUT HE IS LOVE, HE IS FAITH, HE
IS TRUTH, AND EVERYTHING. HE CALLED
US OUT OF GRACE AND YOU DO NOT KNOW
HOW HE CALLED YOU. HE HAS CHOSEN TO
GIVE THIS KINGDOM TO THOSE HE LOVES.
What man loves, God does not love; and
what God loves man does not love. IT IS
NOT THE PERSON WHO COMMENDS
HIMSELF THAT IS APPROVED BUT IT IS THE
PERSON WHO GOD COMMENDS THAT IS
APPROVED. The world does not receive
Christ neither do they know Him; they
disgrace Him and despise Him; BUT GOD
HAS GIVEN HIM A NAME WHICH IS ABOVE
EVERY OTHER NAME, AS THE RULER OF
HEAVEN AND EARTH. AND THE VERY
PERSON THE WORLD HAS DISCLAIMED IS

55

APPOINTED BY GOD TO BE THE KING OF


KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WHO IS TO
JUDGE EVERY CREATURE IN HEAVEN AND
ON EARTH. SINCE GOD HAS DECLARED HIM
AS HIS BELOVED SON, YOU CAN WEEP IF
YOU WANT TO WEEP. IF YOU LIKE YOU CAN
REJOICE. YOU CLAIM THAT YOU DO NOT
KNOW HIM BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT
HE IS THE RULER IN HEAVEN AND ON
EARTH.
When Christ was killed, did Peter not go
back to his fishing? Our Lord Jesus Christ
said that He would resurrect on the third
day; but since they did not have the Spirit
of God they did not hear Him. When you do
not have the Spirit of God, everything here
is like cinema. After you have heard and
seen, everything then passes away, and you
cannot remember them again. HE SAYS I
HAVE COME IN MY FATHERS NAME AND
YOU DO NOT RECEIVE ME BUT WHEN

56

ANOTHER SHALL COME IN HIS OWN NAME


YOU WILL RECEIVE HIM AND PROCLAIM
HIM AS A WONDERFUL MAN. Can you not
see the coming of another person and how
you have rejoiced in Him? Do you think that
at this time He will again go about calling
people to follow Him? The time He came
and called people to follow Him who
obeyed? This time he is not asking you to
come, He is using a rod of iron to rule. HE
DOES NOT TELL YOU THAT HE IS JESUS OR
GOD, THAT IS CHILDS PLAY. THE ROD OF
IRON SIGNIFIES HIS GLORY. THIS TIME HE
IS COMING AS A KING AND YOU KNOW
THAT A KING DOES NOT MOVE AROUND
BECAUSE HIS WORKERS ARE THERE. YOU
ARGUE THAT WHEN HE CAME, HE WENT
FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE PRAYING FOR
PEOPLE AND WASHING THEIR FEET, BUT
THAT IS NOT WHAT HE IS COMING AGAIN
TO PERFORM. HIS CHILDREN ARE THERE
TO DO THESE THINGS. IT IS AN INSULT
57

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

58

EVER. HE HAS NOT COME TO CLEANSE THE


LEPERS AND RAISE THE DEAD BUT HE HAS
A LONG LEG. HE PASSES THROUGH A THIEF
AND RAISES THE DEAD AND YOU WILL
RUSH AND PROCLAIM THE THIEF AS THE
TRUE GOD; AND SO YOU FAIL. He can use a
murderer to raise the dead AND DIVIDE THE
SUN INTO TWO AND YOU WILL BE
ASTONISHED, IT IS THE SAME ONE. But you
will rush to see wonders, you will accept
the murderer as the real Jesus. He passes
on and you cannot see Him and so you fail
by calling the murderer Jesus. WHEN YOU
WANT TO IDENTIFY HIM BY POWER AND
MIRACLES YOU FAIL. WHEN YOU BEGIN TO
COMMEND A PERSON BEING VERY
POWERFUL, DO YOU KNOW THE SOURCE OF
THAT POWER? He has come to take
dominion and rulership. ALL ANGELS HAVE
TO SERVE HIM. BRETHREN, CAN YOU SEE
THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS
REJECTED?
59

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
60

IS PEACE, HE IS PATIENCE, MERCY,


HUMILITY, RIGHTEOUSNESS, SELFCONTROL, GLORY, JOY, AND ALL GOOD
VIRTUES. It does not involve only raising
the dead and going about from house to
house. Go to any part of the world if there
is anywhere you can find these virtues
apart from in Him.

Healing, miracles, are the old style and


they are still operating on their own scale.
It is the same old thing which is regarded
as new when they arrive in Africa. And so
all the signs and wonders are meant to
deceive the unbelievers. I do not want to
say more than this. I want everybody to get
back home and ponder over this statement.
It is mental arithmetic and you can either
have the answer right or wrong. The fact
remains that God has never repeated his
own thing. If somebody comes to tell you

61

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.
Brethren I do not intend to take you further
than this. A stroke of the cane is sufficient
unto the wise. He who has ears let him
hear. May the Lord bless His Holy words,
Amen. THANK YOU HOLY FATHER.

EXCERPT FROM : THE REJECTEDMESSIAH

Heb 7:22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a


better testament.

62

Heb 7:23 And they truly were many priests, because


they were not suffered to continue by reason of
death:
Heb 7:24 But this man, because he continueth ever,
hath an unchangeable priesthood.
Heb 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to
the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing
he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
Heb 7:26 For such an high priest became us, who is
holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners,
and made higher than the heavens;
Heb 7:27 Who needeth not daily, as those high
priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins,
and then for the people's: for this he did once,
when he offered up himself.
Heb 7:28 For the law maketh men high priests which
have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was
since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated
for evermore.

AN IMPOSTOR IS UNACCEPTABLE
IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS
AND STAR.
Heb 7:26 For such an high priest became us, who is
holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners,
and made higher than the heavens;

63

Heb 7:27 Who needeth not daily, as those high


priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins,
and then for the people's: for this he did once,
when he offered up himself.

Today you will witness the truth. Our First


witness is from Matthew 1: 20-25
BUT WHILE HE THOUGHT ON THESE THINGS,
BEHOLD AN ANGEL OF THE LORD APPEARED UNTO HIM
IN A DREAM, SAYING, JOSEPH, THOU SON OF DAVID,
FEAR NOT TO TAKE UNTO THEE MARY THY WIFE: FOR
THAT WHICH IS CONCEIVED OF HER IS OF THE HOLY
GHOST. AND SHE SHALL BRING FORTH A SON, AND
THOU SHALT CALL HIS NAME JESUS: FOR HE SHALL
SAVE HIS PEOPLE FROM THEIR SINS. NOW ALL THIS
WAS DONE, THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED WHICH WAS
SPOKEN OF THE LORD BY THE PROPHET, SAYING,
BEHOLD A VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD, AND SHALL
BRING FORTH A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME
EMMANUEL, WHICH BEING INTERPRETED IS, GOD WITH
US. THEN JOSEPH BEING RAISED FROM SLEEP DID AS
THE ANGEL OF THE LORD HAD BIDDEN HIM, AND TOOK
UNTO HIM HIS WIFE: AND KNEW HER NOT TILL SHE HAD
BROUGHT FORTH HER FIRST BORN SON: AND HE
CALLED HIS NAME JESUS.
PERFECTION IS THE ULTIMATE:

64

Who knows exactly what we are driving


at? Something has happened. When the
priesthood is changed, the law of necessity
is changed. Have you seen what is written
there? It said: YOUR WIFE SHALL
CONCEIVE AND SHALL GIVE BIRTH TO A
BABY BOY AND HIS NAME SHALL BE
CALLED EMMANUEL, MEANING GOD IS
HERE IN OUR MIDST." Have you seen God
here? Has anybody know this? It is said,
you were: CONCEIVED IN INIQUITY AND
DELIVERED IN SIN(PSALM 51).

With what

was Christ conceived? HIS MOTHER WAS A


VIRGIN BUT GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT
OVERSHADOWED HER. IT WAS THE
PREGNANCY WHICH WAS CAUSED BY THE
HOLY SPIRIT, BECAUSE HE WAS A PERFECT
MAN AND HE WAS ALSO SPOTLESS. This is
to let you know who God is. There were
many dignitaries with their exalted
positions in Israel at that time, why was He
not born to them? Were they holy? Were
65

they good? Were they worthy? THE ONLY


REQUIREMENT WAS A HOLY AND SPOTLESS
PERSON THAT IS, G-O-O-D. TO BE GOD,
THIS IS THE REQUIREMENT. Do not be
offended, please.
Have you now seen that? Did they know
this? Like it is written: A VIRGIN SHALL
CONCEIVE, SHE WILL GIVE BIRTH TO A
BABY BOY WHOSE NAME SHALL BE
EMMANUEL." That is the perfection of the
of God Almighty. HE IS A PERFECT GOD
AND PERFECTION HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH CARS, MONEY, AND EARTHLY
POSSESSIONS.
Mary had not carnal relationship;
imagine a virgin giving birth to a baby boy
who shall eventually redeem His own
people. If He Christ were not perfect, do
you think Israel would have been saved?
What then would have happened to our
present generation? Nigeria would have
long perished, Africa would have perished,
66

and indeed, the whole world would have


perished.
The whites are now bragging of their heavy
weaponry, artillery, and scientific
knowhow. Little do they know about the
real source of what has taken place in the
world. Even those of you in Nigeria, and
even right here in Brotherhood, do you
know the real source of who is
responsible? IT IS THE PERFECT MASTER.
GOD DESIRES PERFECTION BECAUSE HE IS
PERFECT. Our journey is gradually taking
shape.
our Second Bible Witness is taken from
Luke 2:5-15
TO BE TAXED WITH MARY HIS ESPOUSED
WIFE, BEING GREAT WITH CHILD. AND SO
IT WAS, THAT WHILE THEY WERE THERE,
THE DAYS WERE ACCOMPLISHED THAT SHE
SHOULD BE DELIVERED. AND SHE
BROUGHT FORTH HERE FIRST-BORN SON,
AND WRAPPED HIM SWADDLING CLOTHES
67

AND LAID HIM IN A MANGER, BECAUSE


THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR THEM IN THE
INN.
...GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST, AND
PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD WILL TOWARD
MEN. AND IT CAME TO PASS, AS THE
ANGELS WERE GONE AWAY FROM THEM
INTO HEAVEN, THE SHEPHERDS SAID ONE
TO ANOTHER, LET US NOW GO EVEN UNTO
BETHLEHEM, AND SEE THIS THING WHICH
IS COME TO PASS, WHICH THE LORD HATH
MADE KNOWN UNTO US.
OUR THIRD BIBLE WITNESS IS TAKEN
FROM LUKE 1:30-37
AND THE ANGEL SAID UNTO HER, FEAR
NOT, MARY: FOR THOU HAST FOUND FAVOR
WITH GOD. AND BEHOLD, THOU SHALT
CONCEIVE IN THY WOMB, AND BRING
FORTH A SON, AND SHALT CALL HIS NAME
JESUS....FOR WITH GOD NOTHING SHALL
BE IMPOSSIBLE.
68

THE ONLY KING AND LEADER:


There is none of you who is aware of
where you are being led to, apart from the
Father alone. Has God not revealed Himself
in this text? Has it not been revealed to
you? You who said, "I want to be this or
that, with what were you conceived of?
What is your father's name? What is your
mothers name? Do you think this kingdom
consists of those things which you are fond
of doing? YOU LOOT MONEY INTO YOUR
POCKETS, BUY EXPENSIVE CARS, AND
WITH THAT YOU THINK YOU ARE CHRIST.
With what were you conceived of and what
is your life history? Have you seen that? He
has no carnal knowledge of a woman or a
man. And take David for instance, he was
said to be one who served God diligently.
OUR FORTH BIBLE WITNESS IS FROM
PHILIPPIANS 2:1-12:
69

IF THERE BE THEREFORE ANY


CONSOLATION IN CHRIST; IF ANY
COMFORT OF LOVE, IF ANY FELLOWSHIP OF
THE SPIRIT, IF ANY BOWELS OF MERCIES,
FULFILL YE MY JOY, THAT YE BE LIKE
MINDED, HAVING THE SAME LOVE, BEING
OF ONE ACCORD, OF ONE MIND....
WHEREFORE, MY BELOVED, AS YE HAVE
ALWAYS OBEYED, NOT AS IN MY PRESENCE
ONLY, BUT NOW MUCH MORE IN MY
ABSENCE, WORK OUT YOUR OWN
SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING.
AN IMPOSTOR IS UNACCEPTABLE IN
BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.
Have you seen what causes a prolonged
story? What is read there is a story. It is
the history that follows a teaching which
prolongs it and it is the practical side of
the teaching. Whatever you see here on the
earth plane, do not think that it originates
here. It is not from the plane. There is
70

nothing that is from this earth plane. Have


you seen how God prepared Him, Christ,
before His coming? It is said in a local
adage that the soil must be well prepared
to have good yield. Have you seen how
Christ was born? WHEN HE IS REFERRED
TO AS THE HOLY SON OF GOD, IS IT
BECAUSE EVEN HIS BIRTH TOOK PLACE IN
A SEMINARY? NO. HE HAS NO
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE MUNDANE
WORLD. HE DOES NOT QUARREL NOR
FIGHT.
I told you repeatedly that when John the
Baptist was asked if he was the expected
one, he denied outright. He rather told the
people that he was merely the voice crying
the wilderness, to prepare the way. IN
YOUR CASE, WITH YOUR LOAD OF
PROBLEMS AND EARTHLY DESIRE, YOU
REMAIN HERE TO CAUSE TROUBLE AND
CONFUSION. TOMORROW AFTER LOOTING
MONEY FROM THE TREASURY YOU CLAIM
71

YOU ARE THE CHRIST. DO YOU THINK I


WANT SUCH A PERSON IN THIS KINGDOM?
IS HE THE HOLY ONE OF GOD? THE
REQUIREMENT IS A HOLY PERSON, ONE
WHO IS WITHOUT BLEMISH. It is not as a
result of money, knowledge, or Father-son
relationship. If Christ was conceived
through carnal relationship, WOULD HE BE
CALLED THE HOLY SON OF GOD? IF MARY
HAD ANY CARNAL RELATIONSHIP BEFORE
BEING CONCEIVED WOULD HE CHRIST
HAVE BEEN THE EXPECTED ONE? WOULD
WE HAVE GOTTEN SALVATION? (Heave a
sigh of relief).

Excerpt from the gospel: PERFECT MASTER

72

DO NOT BE ARROGANT BUT THANK


GOD
Second Bible Lesson: Hebrews 1:6-9
And again, when he bringeth in the first
begotten into the world, he saith, And let
all the angels of God worship him. And of
the angels he saith, who maketh his angels
spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O
God, is forever and ever: a septre of
righteousness is the septre of thy
kingdom.Thou hast loved righteousness,
and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy
God hath, anointed thee with the oil of
gladness above thy fellows.
I have to tell you in confidence that no
person should be pompous and arrogant,
but should thank the Father that God has
spared your life to share in this glory of
God. It is not your father or the Leader or
any person who has done this job. Do not
73

praise any person or yourself. Do not


disturb yourself. Keep calm, and do not ask
for anything but remain in the fear of God
and comfort yourself. Remember the last
prayer of Our Lord Jesus Christ (John 17:45) when He said: "I have glorified thee on
earth, having finished the Work which thou
gave me to do. And now, O Father, glorify
thou me with thine own self with the glory
which I had with thee before the world
was." Can you realize the glory of God? It is
said when he brings back the first begotten
of God into the world, He will say: "let all
the angels of God worship Him." If all the
angels will worship Him, be it as it were,
what will the first begotten do Himself?
Whom will He worship? IF IT WAS
APPOINTED THAT ALL ANGELS SHOULD
BOW DOWN TO WORSHIP MAN, IF ALL
MINISTER UNTO MAN, FOR WHAT REASON
DOES THE FIRST BEGOTTEN NEED TO
MOVE OUT? IT IS THE ANGELS WHO HAVE
74

TO MINISTER TO PEOPLE, THEY KNOW


THEIR ARRANGEMENTS AND HE HAS TO
SIT ON THE GLORY OF HIS FATHER.
Do Not Be Forgetful In Entertaining
Strangers
Right now angels are in your homes. If you
speak evil they hear. If you do evil they
know. If you do anything they see you. They
are in your house, in water, in the air, and in
all parts of the world. Has He not given us
advice when He said: "let brotherly love
continue?" Be not forgetful in entertaining
strangers for by so doing many have
entertained angels unawares. (Heb 13:2)
Celebrate the feast everywhere. Fruits
should not be lacking in your house, in your
offices, in your cars, and everywhere. Now
people do not eat alone. All eat with angels.
Let us have our golden text.

BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.


EXCERPT FROM : RETURN OF THE FIRST BEGOTTEN IN
THE FLESH

THE MYSTERY OF MAN IN RELATION


TO THE TRINITY GOD.
What was the sign that revealed Christ as the
Son of God? As our Lord Jesus Christ was
crucified on the Cross, a soldier pierced His side
with a sword and there came down blood and
water, and thus Christ was revealed as the Son of
Man. When he shouted to His Father, saying,
"Into thy hand I commend my Spirit" at that point
the spirit, which is God, went out of Him. There
you are. Who could say categorically that Christ
was nailed to the cross? From the statement He
made, you can realize that it is only the earthly
house of sand which was nailed on the cross.
When Our Lord Jesus Christ was in the world,
three things bore witness of Him: THE WATER
AND THE BLOOD AND THE SPIRIT. That is why if
there is no more water in you, (that is if you
become dehydrated) you will die. Also, if you run
76

short of blood, (if you become anemic), that


condition is death. Equally, if the spirit is out of
you, there comes the end of your life. Hence Our
Lord Jesus Christ is called: THE SON OF MAN,
THE SON OF GOD AND GOD HIMSELF. Who is the
son of man? Is it not the Blood? Who is the Son
of God, is it not the Water? Who is God, is God
not the SPIRIT?
Today, you all look at a fellow human being, you
beat and point accusing finger at your neighbor,
but you forget that the whole world is one. We
are foolish; we bear grudges against each other.
Do you know that Christ is a human being? Why
do you not begrudge an animal in the bush, but
Christ? Have you seen the present state of man,
he says, "I do not worship man, but I worship the
true God." If you do not love your brethren whom
you see with your naked eyes, how can you love
God whom you cannot see?
It is said that God has no Son, what about all of
you, are you not the children of God?
EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD IS A CHILD OF GOD
AND THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD WHO IS DWELLING
IN ALL OF YOU. BRETHREN DO YOU REALIZE THE
77

BLINDNESS THAT YOU ARE SUFFERING FROM?


YOUR BODY AND YOUR ENTIRE SELF IS GOD.
HAVE YOU NOT SEEN THE LIKENESS OF CHRIST
IN YOU, THE LIKENESS OF GOD? IT IS SAID THAT
YOUR OWN HEART IS THE TABERNACLE OF GOD
AND THAT GOD DWELLS INSIDE YOU. That is why
you are advised not to defile the temple of God
that is within you. Do you believe that whatever
you do to man, you are doing it to God? HAVE
YOU NOT KNOWN THAT ALL THE HUMAN RACE
HAS ONE GOD AS THE FATHER. IT IS TO THIS
EFFECT THAT CHRIST ADVISED US TO LOVE ONE
ANOTHER EVEN AS HE HAS LOVED US. HENCE
WE ARE ALL BRETHREN. Can you tell where
blood comes from and where it goes back to?
If you are operated upon right now, the water, the
blood, the spirit will fill two basins each. But do
you know where the water and the Spirit come
from and where they return? THE WATER, THE
BLOOD AND THE SPIRIT ALL COME FROM THE
TRINITY GOD AND THEY ALL RETURN TO THE
TRINITY GOD. Why do you keep enmity with the
children of God? Why do you vow to retaliate
your wife, even to the point of making her go

78

naked? You say, "That my brother and the child I


never forgive them." Did Christ not teach you that
we are the children of God, and that Christ is the
first-born Son, the king of kings and Lord of
Lords. He takes dominion over everything in the
world. Do you not see that since God created us
in His own image and likeness, and since God
does not die, none of us will die? Let the Golden
Text be read.
EXCERPT FROM :BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS I AM
CHRIST WAS NOT BORN ON CHRISTMAS DAY

SUCCESSOR:
WHO BELIEVES IN 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.

79

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 LABOR
AND NO PERSON ENCROACHES ON THE
POSITION OF OTHERS. (1 st Corinth. 12:18).
The Golden Text should now be read.
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 THAT CHRIST HAS
NOT GONE ANYWHERE SINCE HIS RESURRECTION:
80

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
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,

81

"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)
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).
82

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: 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 WORK
EVERY TIME, EVERYWHERE. HE IS NEVER SICK,

83

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).
84

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 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;
85

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 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 societydo 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

86

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 EVERLASTING 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

Olumba Obu, The Sole Spiritual Head Of The Universe, on:-"THE
MYSTERY OF DEATH"

I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE


LIFE.
THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST WILL LEAD US
TO ETERNAL LIFE.
Now the Moslems believe the Father.
Buddhist, Hindus etc, everybody in would
all over believe that there is ONE GOD AND
FATHER RULING OVERALL. Now that

87

everybody has accepted that God has a


son, and that the Father, the Son and the
Holy Spirit is now on earth, we have to open
the door to another chapter of our teaching.
What is this chapter? IT IS THAT THE
WHOLE WORLD IS BROTHERHOOD. This is
what people have been eagerly waiting to
know. The world has been seriously shaken.
People are waiting to see the manifestation
of the children of God and now all the
inhabitants of the whole world have been
revealed as the children of God. Romans
8:19 says: For the earnest expectation of
the creature waiteth for the manifestation
of the sons of God. And today, the whole
world and all of us have been revealed as
children of God and we are indeed the
children of God. Since you realized
yourselves as the children of God you
should live up to the injunction that we
should love your enemies, bless them that
curse you and do good to them that hate
88

you, and pray for those who despitefully


use you and persecute you. That ye may be
children of your Father which is in heaven
for He maketh his sun to rise on the just an
unjust and he maketh the rain to fall on the
good and the evil. As a last injunction He
told us, Be thou perfect even as your
Father which is heaven is perfect. Now
that you have realized yourself as a child of
God, you have to be perfect even as your
heavenly Father is perfect. This will lead
you to that which Peter said when he
proclaimed, We are waiting for a new
heaven and a new earth for therein
dwelleth righteousness. That is the
wisdom of truth.
Our Lord Jesus Christ had said, I am
the way, the truth and the life. This means
that the Doctrine of Christ will lead us to
eternal life. All those who commit sin are
slaves to sin, and the slave does not dwell
in the house forever but the Son lives in the
89

house forever. If you comply with the


instructions given you by God and you try to
be as perfect as He is, walking in His
footsteps and loving God with all your
heart, strength and soul, and you obey the
Father and the Son, then we will have
eternal life.

AMERICAN JUDGE:
Second Bible Lesson: Acts 2:17-21
And it shall come to pass in the last
days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit
upon all flesh: and your sons and your
daughters shall prophesy, and your young
men shall see visions, and your old men
shall dream dreams: And on my servants
and on my handmaidens I will pour out in
those days of my Spirit; and they shall
prophesy: And I will shew wonders in
heaven above, and signs in the earth
beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of
smoke: The sun shall be turned into
darkness, and the moon into blood, before
that great and notable day of the Lord
come: And it shall come to pass, that
whosoever shall call on the name of the
Lord shall be saved.

91

Beloved, have you not seen these things


coming to pass in our time? THE WILL OF
GOD FOR THIS WORLD IS TO UNITE THE
WHOLE WORLD INTO ONE FOLD TO BE
CONTROLLED BY ONE SHEPHERD.
WITHOUT THE SPIRIT OF GOD COMING
UPON YOU, YOU CANNOT ALLOW THE WILL
OF GOD TO PREVAIL IN YOUR LIFE. EVEN
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST COULD NOT
PERFORM ANY TASK UNTIL THE HOLY
SPIRIT DESCENDED UPON HIM LIKE A DOVE
ON THE DAY OF BAPTISM. THE DISCIPLES
COULD NOT ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING UNTIL
THEY RECEIVED THE HOLY SPIRIT ON THE
DAY OF PENTECOST. TODAY YOU HAVE
BEEN ENDOWED WITH POWER OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT TO PROPAGATE THE WORD OF GOD.
NO MORE ARE WE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF ANY OTHER POWER BUT
THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Have you
not seen the extensive work which God has

92

used mankind to accomplish? But it is


rather unfortunate that man attributes the
glory of the work which God has used us to
accomplish to himself. This to a large
extent amounts to ingratitude.
We have failed in our duties of giving
thanks to God for all that He has done for
us where as God has not failed in any of His
promises to us.
RECALL THAT IT WAS SAID THAT THOSE
WHO CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD
SHALL BE SAVED. IS THIS NOT THE CASE
TODAY? HAVE YOU MET DISAPPOINTMENT
HAVING CALLED UPON THE NAME OF THE
LORD? YET HE HAS NEVER CHARGED A FEE
FOR THE THINGS HE HAS BEEN DOING FOR
US.
The problems facing mankind
emanate from the fact that we do things
which are at variance with the injunctions
of God. We have to love everybody even as
93

Our Lord Jesus Christ loves us. Failure to


do this means that we have failed in our
duties.
Here in this kingdom, WE HAVE JUST
ONE BEING LEADING, TEACHING,
CHANGING AND DIRECTING. He is THE
HOLY SPIRIT HIMSELF; AND NONE OTHER
THAN THE HOLY SPIRIT IS EXPECTED TO
PERFORM THESE FUNCTIONS; AND IF YOU
DO, THEN YOU ARE ENCROACHING ON HIS
TERRITORY.
IN AMERICA ALMOST EVERYBODY IS
ENDOWED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. Like I
had earlier told you, when Brotherhood of
the Cross and Star was newly registered in
America, the Americans were of the belief
that BCS originated from there. And as time
went on, a lot of people started embracing
Brotherhood. But at a point when the need
arose that the members should come to the

94

Headquarters here in Calabar(Africa), they


were surprised.
Upon enquiry, they were reliably told
that the Headquarters of Brotherhood of
the Cross and Star is in Nigeria. They then
sought to know if there is Brotherhood
registered in other developed countries of
the World. On finding out that BCS was
newly registered in America, the Americans
protested and sought that Brotherhood
should not be registered in their country;
and that if that is done, it will appear as if
America was a very insignificant country in
the world.
In the process the case was taken to
court. The case was a very serious one. It
lasted for a very long time. BUT AT THE
APPOINTED TIME, THE FATHER RULED
THAT THE CASE SHOULD BE DECIDED IN
FAVOR OF BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS
AND STAR.
95

TO PROVE TO YOU THAT ALMOST ALL


AMERICANS HAVE THE SPIRIT, ONE OUT OF
THE SIXTEEN JUDGES; IN FACT, THE
PRESIDING JUDGE OF THE CASE
CONFESSED THAT THERE IS A MAN WHO
KEPT TELLING HIM TO ALLOW
BROTHERHOOD TO OPERATE IN AMERICA;
AND THAT THERE IS A VERY IMPORTANT
MISSION THAT THE FOLD IS TO
ACCOMPLISH IN AMERICA.
Who was this judge referring to?
Was it not the Holy Spirit? From that day,
the case was decided in favor of
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; and up
till now, Brotherhood remains registered in
America. EVEN THEN, BUT FOR GOD BEING
THE DOER OF EVERYTHING IN THIS
KINGDOM, BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS
AND STAR WOULD HAVE BEEN BANNED IN
AMERICA DUE TO THE ACTIVITIES OF SOME
BRETHREN. THIS HAS NOT BEEN THE CASE

96

BECAUSE THE FATHER HAS TAKEN FULL


CHARGE OF EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD.
Brotherhood is enjoyed in America so
much that the whites sent an emissary to
come and take me to America. They did not
just want me to visit America but that I
should come and establish my
Headquarters there. They promised to give
me money houses and the glory I deserve.
They added that it is very shameful that the
headquarters of Brotherhood of the Cross
and Star, the new Kingdom of God, should
be in Africa and not in America, in spite of
the fact that they brought Christianity to
Africa.
Having listened to all their pleas I told
them that I cannot go with them to
establish this Kingdom in America, and that
this is Africas turn to host the Holy Spirit. I
told them that I have no need for the cars,
money and in fact, all the things they
97

promised me. I told them that I cannot


mortgage Africa's turn of hosting the Holy
Spirit to America for sentiment. I then
advised them that they should be coming;
and in fact, partake fully in the activities of
the kingdom, being that Brotherhood is a
universal kingdom.
Today there is no gainsaying that the
Americans know Brotherhood much more
than the Blacks. The whites do not toy with
this fold.
HAVING BEEN GIVEN THIS CHANCE TO
HOST THE FATHER, IT IS THE DUTY OF THE
BLACKS AND INDEED THAT OF ALL AND
SUNDRY THAT HAVE HAD THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HEARKEN TO THIS CALL
TO SPREAD THE GOOD TIDINGS OF THIS
KINGDOM WHICH BORDERS ON LOVE AND
ONENESS. The blacks, hitherto, were
viewed as an inferior race such that nothing
good was expected to originate from it; but
98

today events have been reversed, the black


is now a very serious race to reckon with. I
HAVE EXALTED THE BLACK RACE. And for
the whites, they must team up to do this
work. They are billed to finance the
activities of this kingdom.
I know that the blacks do not have the
means to sponsor the growth of the works
in the kingdom but the Father, at the
appointed time will bring the whites to
sponsor it. This notwithstanding, do not sit
at a place with your hands folded, waiting
for the whites to come and do everything
for you. Wake up from your slumber and do
something in appreciation of what the
Father has done for mankind. Rise up to the
challenge of taking this gospel of love to all
the nooks and crannies of the world .
Reference should be made to the Golden
Text.
Golden Text Revelation: 11:15
99

And the seventh angel sounded; and


there were great voices in heaven, saying,
The kingdoms of this world are become the
kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and
he shall reign for ever and ever.
THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS ON EARTH
Are you not a living witness to the fact
that the kingdoms of this world have
become the kingdom of our Lord and His
Christ? Take what is happening in the
United Kingdom as an instance. Who on
earth would believe that a religion founded
by A BLACK MAN could gain such
recognition in United Kingdom? Today in
the United Kingdom, Brotherhood is of the
Cross and Star is held in high esteem under
THE FATHERS LEADERSHIP.
The Fathers son, Bishop Goring is the
Leaders Representative there; and he has
gone into full time service into the Fathers
vineyard. He now spreads these good
100

tidings of love on a full time basis. In the


United Kingdom, Brotherhood is taking new
dimensions to the Fathers glory. SO IT WAS
IN AMERICA. BUT OF LATE THE MEMBERS
HAVE STARTED EMBEZZLING MONEY. THEY
HAVE NOW FASHIONED OUT A SYSTEM OF
DIVERTING FUNDS FOR THEIR PRIVATE
USE. This is not what is expected of you. It
is rather a complete deviation from the
injunctions of God. Whenever you engage in
this kind of life you are subjecting yourself
to destruction.
The moment you place money and the
material things of this world above God,
you are bound to fall. I have this to say that
in no distant time, all the man-made
structures, government, kingdoms, etc. will
be brought to an abrupt end; and the
kingdom of God will replace them all.
There will be one central government in
the world. This you should note has
101

actually gone into play. This is because the


kingdoms of this world have become the
kingdom of Our Lord and His Christ. All
forms of hatred, fighting, wars, lack and
rancor have ceased. It is rather
disheartening to note that even when God
has forgiven your sins, and He has promised
to remember them no more, you are still
imputing sins on others.
The kingdom that Our Lord Jesus
Christ talked about in the Lords prayer has
manifested in our time. Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star is the much talked about
kingdom of God.
It baffles me to know that in spite
of the fact that you are opportuned to be in
this kingdom, you still engage in diabology
and other sinful acts. This kingdom, you
should note, has no need for sinners.
It is said that a stroke of the cane is
sufficient

for the wise. Let those who have


102

ears hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted


to the whole world. May God bless His Holy
words. Amen
THANK YOU HOLY FATHER

Excerpt from the gospel: THE NEW ERA

THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL

THE REIGN OF CHRIST


First Bible Lesson: John 17:2
As thou has given him power over all flesh
that he should give eternal life to as many
as thou hast given him.

103

Second Bible Lesson: Revelation 21:2


And I John saw the holy city, new
Jerusalem, coming down from God out of
heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her
husband.
Golden Text: 2 Corinthians 11:2
For I am jealous over you with godly
jealousy, for I have espoused you to one
husband, that I may present you as a
chaste virgin to Christ.
You have read the secret of Gods
kingdom as revealed above. When the people
complained to Our Lord Jesus Christ that His
disciples had gone to someones corn farm and
stolen some corn, He made a certain
statement to them that if they had known that
what He prefers is mercy and not sacrifice,
they would not have accused the innocent. He
also told them that the Son of man is king of
the Sabbath.
Up till today the world has not been able to
see the light because the people of the world
are blind. They cannot hear because their ears
are sealed up. Now if the head of anything is
104

cut off what can the other helpless half do?


The entire world cannot effect any good work
because they constitute a mere body without a
head. The world is just a bundle of flesh
without a head. They have hung their head.
You are aware that God created a man and
a woman and the two of them shall become
one flesh. (Matthew 19:5). It was also stated
that the woman shall be under the man and the
man shall be a head to her. The man shall
submit to Christ who will be the head to the
man and to every other creature of God.
(1 Corinthians 11:3). Why the entire world is
empty and void of power and goodness is that
it is mere flesh. The whole vegetation, waters,
humanity, birds, animals, soil and every other
thing in the world added together is but one
bunch of flesh which has no head.
Any town which has no head is dead. A
church is a body of people who believe and
follow a pattern of worship. Unfortunately the
churches have rejected their head, and so are
lifeless and without a head.
Our Lord Jesus Christ is the head of all
existence in the universe. The situation can be
105

compared to a ship which has been boarded


with all the passengers and the staff and crew
but the ship has no captain. That ship could be
all fired up and steaming and ready to move
but it cannot move because the head who is
the captain is not there. OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST IS THAT CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP AND
WITHOUT HIM, THE SHIP CANNOT SAIL. IN
THE SAME MANNER WITHOUT OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST, NO GOVERNMENT, BUSINESS,
FAMILY, ORGANIZATION, OR RELIGION CAN
GROW PROPERLY OR ACHIEVE ANY GOOD
WORK. That is why it is written in the Bible
that the shepherd shall be slain and the sheep
will scatter.
Yes, if your head is cut off from the body,
the remaining part of the body becomes
useless. This is just the true state of the
world. Upon all the numerous people who
were followers of Our Lord Jesus Christ, when
He was caught, they all run away with the
exception of Peter.
Recall when Lazarus died, He went
majestically to the grave and revived him, but
106

none was there to do the same to Him, in the


entire world. THAT SHOWS THAT OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST IS GREATER THAN ANY OTHER
PERSON IN THE WORLD. When He got to the
grave side He spoke(prayed silently to the
Father) without uttering a word, but He had to
call out Lazarus for the sake of those present
that they may be witnesses. At that instance
Lazarus rose from the dead.(John11:30-44)
Our Lord Jesus Christ is greater than
billions of men. Without a head the affairs of
the body will lack coordination, and so the
body will not be rational. That was why when
the Israelites got to their promised land the
first thing they demanded was a king. They
realized that a town or city without a head
cannot achieve anything good. Take for
instance the coup that was attempted on the
regime of President Babangida. If the
President had been killed by any means, his
death would have resulted in the demise of
that government. Though his aide de camp was
killed, since he was not killed, the government
continued to stand.
There was a lot of destruction of houses,
107

lives, and properties just to make sure one


person was killed. This important personality
was the President of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria, yet he was not hurt..You can therefore
see the position of the head in any nation or
kingdom. That is why in the instance of a war,
each side will always hide its king or head
because if the head is killed or captured by the
other group it means you have been defeated.
You can see that in the entire world,
England is the luckiest country for they alone
have a head in the personality of the Queen or
King of England. When one king dies he is
replaced by another one from the same family.
The Queen or King of England must be of the
English Royal Family. This is the essence of a
natural king or queen. It is not by vote or
election.
In Nigeria and other nations of the world,
they vote before they choose their temporal
heads. In reality, all the nations that contest
the position of the rulers, be it the position of
a king or queen have no such headship at all.
Even the queen and king of England cannot be
regarded as universal kings or queens as such
108

because their powers are limited to the few


cities within their royal domain.
The king or queen of England cannot rule
India, America, Germany, to mention a few.
Fishes, snakes, trees, waters, stars planets,
etc. do not recognize him/her as king or queen.
Such rulership is of the earth and therefore of
the flesh. Spiritually, they are not recognized.
The problem is really serious and it will take a
lot to normalize this situation. What do you
think is the headache of the entire world
today?
The afflictions, tribulations, persecutions
and problems besetting the world are the
direct result of the absence of a head; and it is
a pity they do not know that they have no head,
and neither do they seek after one. They have
not recognized the only king of kings , even our
Lord Jesus Christ.
WHEN OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS
BORN, HE STUNNED THE WORLD BY
DISPLAYING WONDERFUL POWERS. NOTHING
HAD AUTHORITY OVER HIM, YET HE CAME TO
LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR SEVENTY- TWO
HOURS (THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS:
109

Matthew 12:40/Jonah1:17). SO THAT THE


ENTIRE HUMANITY WOULD BE SAVED AND BE
UNITED INTO ONE KINGDOM.
After that He has now come to rule over all
powers, principalities and persons. He is now
sitting on top of all human beings and He is the
only head of all men. At the former time he
was only a proposed king. That was why He
was only referred to as the king of the Jews,
and you know the Jewish land is only a small
part of the world. It was only after He had
finished the assignment of His crucifixion on
the Cross for the remission of our sin, He
returned, so that this statement in Revelation
12:5 is fulfilled in this era, And she brought
forth a man child, who was to rule all
nations with an iron rod and her child was
caught up to God and His throne.
The entire world does not know that it has
missed the rulership which was given to Adam.
Adam was given the authority to superintend
over all creations of God but due to his
disobedience, he was thrown out of the throne.
Since Adam left the post, man has no head
again and so man has no director. And for that
110

reason, the behavior of man resulted in


multiplicities of diseases, death, and a myriad
of problems. Now everybody wants to be a king
and no one accepts the rulership of another.
Recall when the disciples of Our Lord Jesus
Christ asked Him to teach them to pray even
as John the Baptist did to his disciples, Our
Lord Jesus Christ taught them the Lords
prayer as recorded in Matthew 6:9-13 Our
Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy
name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on
earth as it is done in heaven.......For thine is
the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever
and ever... Amen
NOW THAT THE KINGDOM HAS COME JUST AS
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST PRAYED, WE MUST
KNOW THAT WHAT EVER OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST SAYS OR PRAYS ABOUT MUST
MANIFEST, BECAUSE HE IS THE KING OF
KINGS AND LORD OF LORD. That is why I say
you can take the whole world and give me Our
Lord Jesus Christ alone for He alone is
sufficient for me. THE KING OF KINGS IS IN
THE WORLD AND YET THE WORLD DOES
NOT KNOW HIM, AND NEITHER CAN THE
111

WORLD SEE HIM BECAUSE THE WORLD


DOES NOT WANT HIM. Everybody likes to
behave the way they desire and no one wants
to be ruled by another person since each
individual wants to be his own king or king
over others.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said that He is the
true vine and the rest of the entire world are
mere branches. If you abide in Him, you will
remain fresh and bear fruit, but if you are
detached from Him who is the true vine, then
your supply will dry up and you will bear no
fruit. (John 15:5).
ANY DAY YOU RECOGNIZE THE KING YOUR
PROBLEMS ARE GONE FOREVER. What is
called Christ does not mean Jesus, Messiah, or
any other mundane position. CHRIST MEANS
THE ONE ANOINTED BY THE ALMIGHTY
FATHER AS THE KING OF KINGS. SUCH A
ONE IS TO RULE OVER ALL CREATED THINGS,
BE THEY VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE. HE WAS
ANOINTED BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE
WORLD. EVERYTHING OBEYS HIS COMMAND,
THE WIND OBEYS HIM BECAUSE HE RULES
OVER ALL THINGS.
112

You may have the ability to say a word and


a mountain is transplanted to a distant place
or you may be able to heal the sick and raise
the dead but if you are not that KING OF
OTHER KINGS YOU ARE NOWHERE, YOU ARE
NOT THE ONE. THE ANOINTED ONE IS THE
ONLY ONE TO RULE OVER ALL FLESH, SOULS,
SPIRITS AND OTHER CREATURES.
Now a lot of people are worried over the
sermon on one world. They are doubting the
possibility of the entire world being united
under one king and one kingdom. If I may ask,
when Adam was in the garden of Eden, were
there two kings and two kingdoms? There is a
spiritual song whose wording says: IF A MAN
WAS DESTINED TO RULE, HE MUST RULE THE
WORLD. It was destined for Adam to rule over
human beings, animals, fishes, waters, trees
and all other creatures. However, from the
moment he was removed, confusion,
commotion, and problems set in and
everything scattered. The garden of Eden has
since been scattered with every inmate acting
his own way.

113

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS DESTINED


TO RULE ALL PEOPLE AND SO WHATEVER YOU
LIKE TO DO, WHETHER PRAYING, FASTING, OR
LAMENTING, CANNOT STOP CHRIST FROM
RULING AND REIGNING OVER THE ENTIRE
WORLD. HE IS NOW RULING OVER ALL
THINGS, IN HEAVEN, THE EARTH AND ALL
OTHER PLANES OF MANIFEST. WHAT WE LACK
ON EARTH IS NOT MONEY, WEALTH, WISDOM,
LIFE NOR POWER, BUT A TRUE KING.
We do not have a king We do not know the
KING OF KINGS AND NEITHER DO WE
RECOGNIZE HIM.. That is why it is said in Luke
19:27 that those his enemies who do not wish
that he should rule over them bring them hither
and slay them. THAT IS THE ARMAGEDDON
WAR YOU ARE TOLD WILL TAKE PLACE. ALL
THOSE WHO DISAGREE WITH HIS RULE WILL
BE SLAIN. THOSE WHO CALL THEMSELVES
QUEENS AND KING ARE ALL PSEUDO KINGS
AND QUEENS. THEY ARE NOT RECOGNIZED
BY A MERE HOUSEFLY OR EVEN THE ANTS.
THEREFORE ANYBODY WHO DOES NOT
KNOW OR RECOGNIZE CHRIST WILL
PERISH. FIRE, ANIMALS, TREES, SPIRITS
114

OR ANYTHING CREATED, VISIBLE OR


INVISIBLE THAT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE HIS
RULE WILL PERISH. OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST WAS NEITHER NOMINATED NOR
ELECTED BY EITHER MAN, ANIMAL,
ANGELS, OR ANY OTHER CREATURE BUT IT
WAS PREDETERMINED FROM THE
BEGINNING BY THE FATHER THAT OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST SHOULD RULE.
For anyone to come and protest now that
Our Lord Jesus Christ should not come to rule
over him, it is too late. Whether you say that as
a none-Israelite, or a Nigerian, or an American,
or you think Our Lord Jesus will not rule over
you, you are merely deceiving yourself. Now
you are still saying that when Our Lord Jesus
Christ comes, He will heal your sickness,
preach from house to house, raise the dead
and so on. You have erred. You have made a
terrible mistake by that statement, for He has
come to rule over all powers and principalities,
including the elements, visible and invisible,
spiritual and physical beings. For this very
reason, He gives the injunction that you should
make all nations his disciples and you should
115

preach to them and only those who believe


shall be baptized IN THE NAME OF THE
FATHER, THE SON AND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
Recall when He declared that all powers in
heaven and on the earth have been given to
Him. (Matthew 28:18). This shows that He
was equipped even before He was born on
earth. In the first instance, Our Lord Jesus
Christ instructed His disciples not to go the
way of the Gentiles but to go only to the lost
sheep of Israel (Matthew 10:5-6). That time
He was only the King of the Jews.
However after His resurrection, having
conquered hell and hades, and having been
given the kingship over the angels, men and all
kings, both spiritual and physical, He
instructed them to go and make disciples of all
nations for Him, by preaching and baptizing all
those who believe. (Mark 16:15-18). THIS
TIME HE WAS SPEAKING AS THE KING OF
KINGS. NO MATTER WHAT RELIGIOUS BELIEF
YOU HAVE, HE MUST RULE OVER YOU, AND HE
IS INDEED RULING OVER YOU.
In the former times, men of old ordained
people by favoritism and tribalism. IN THIS
116

ERA ALL THINGS ARE DONE BY GRACE. HE


HAS INSTRUCTED THAT WHOSOEVER
BELIEVES AND IS BAPTIZED WILL BE SAVED.
SO THAT IF YOU DO NOT POSSESS THE HOLY
SPIRIT, THEN YOU DO NOT BELONG TO OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST. IT IS ONLY BY THIS
BAPTISM THAT YOU WILL BE GIVEN THE GIFT
OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THE KING OF KINGS MEANS THE ONE WHO
RULES OVER ALL OTHER KINGS . Now you are
all kings, not the celebrated mundane ones but
HE HAS ELECTED YOU BY GRACE, AND HE
HAS GIVEN YOU CROWNS. That is why at
times when the Holy Spirit moves in you, you
feel a sensation in your head, for it is your
crown and it shines like the bright stars. What
do you mean by such terms as governor,
chairman, or royal highness? ALL THESE ARE
MEANINGLESS IF YOU ARE NOT ELECTED A
KING UNDER THE KING OF KINGS. Let the
First Bible Lesson be read.
First Bible Lesson: John 17:2
As thou has given him power over all flesh
that he should give eternal life to as many
117

as thou hast given him.


Is what is written in the First Lesson
spiritual or carnal word? Are the words spoken
in the first Bible lessons spiritual or carnal
words? You have been told not to despise the
prophesy of God because they all must come
to fulfilment. You can recall that statement in
the First Bible Lesson which means that all
powers have been given to Our Lord Jesus
Christ to rule all humanity. He is the only one
who gives you eternal life and peace. He was
given the power and authority to rule all
creations of God and overrule all powers that
be, whether it be of water, thunder, wind, rain,
fire, trees, rocks, stars, moon, planets, sun,
and all other elements who are angels. All
human being are His prophets, both men and
women, the poor the rich, adults, children, the
dull one and the intelligent ones are all His
prophets.
You cannot do anything without His
authority. We breath and talk and live and move
and have our being in him. HE IS THE KING OF
EVERYTHING , ALL THINGS INCLUDING EVEN
118

THE MICROSCOPIC ORGANISMS. The world


does not recognize Him as the head of all
governments, and for that reason no
government can succeed in their policies.
All kingdoms have failed because they refused
to embrace the king of kings in their midst. All
churches and religions have failed because
they refuse to embrace the king of kings in
their midst. Every thing else will fail for the
above stated reason.
The entire world is in problems and
confusion because it has no head, having
despised its own head which is the King of
kings. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the sole and
only head of the world. He as the King of
kings and Lord of Lords has not come to heal
the sick, raise the dead, preach or to die, but
to reign and rule over all creations of God and
over men and angels too. For that reason He
has come with powerful angels who minister
unto Him.
All human beings are to serve Him and both
created and uncreated being are to serve
under Him. He has a myriad of workers to
attend to Him, therefore what He does is to
119

give instructions for whatever He likes. All


angels take direct instructions from Him, and
they carry out His instructions promptly,
without any delay. ALL THOSE WHO WILL
RULE WITH HIM ARE PREDESTINED, CALLED,
BAPTIZED AFTER REPENTANCE, AND THEY
ARE BESTOWED WITH THE GIFT OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT.
Recall what is written in Revelation 14:1-5
that John saw a white lamb and one hundred
and forty-four thousand 144,000 virgins. He
heard a voice of harpers harping with their
harps. These 144,000 are they which are not
defiled with women, and these are those who
will follow the lamb wherever he goes and they
shall reign as kings under the King of kings.
It is better for one to be a servant in the
kingdom of God than to be a king in the
kingdom of Satan. It is also better for one to
be a poor person in the kingdom of God than a
millionaire in the kingdom of the devil, which is
the world. Someone may say that if he is not
among the 144,000, what then is he going
there for? I am making it clear to you that
though you are not among the 144,000 you are
120

going there for something. Wherever you are,


as long as you are in the kingdom, you have
your own duties, and you will be rewarded
adequately for that. Your ultimate reward is
the Eternal Life which He will crown you with.
He guides you, guards you and He rules over
you and supplies all your needs throughout
your life. All beings and existing powers
recognize Our Lord Jesus Christ as the King of
kings, but human beings are the only
exception.
Recall when His disciples requested to know
the sign of His coming, He answered and said
they should be careful, for many shall come
claiming to be the Christ and shall lead many
astray, and there shall be wars and rumors of
war but they should not be frightened, for
these things must take place. But it was still
not the end , for nation shall rise against
nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and
there will be famines and earthquakes in place
after place, all this is but the beginning of
labor pains. They will hand you over to suffer
affliction and tribulation and put you to death,
121

and you will be hated by many nations for My


names sake.
Many will be offended and repelled, and
many will begin to distrust and desert Christ
whom they ought to trust and obey. Many will
stumble and fall away and betray one another
and pursue one another with hatred. Many
false prophets will arise and deceive many, and
the love of many people will grow cold
because of the multiplied iniquity and but he
who endures to the end will be saved and the
good news of the kingdom shall be preached
throughout the world, then will the end come.
(Matthew 24:4-14).
You have been warned not to call any
person king or master on earth, for you are all
brethren. You either say brother or sister. The
only reigning king is THE CHRIST. HE HAS NO
DEPUTY, HE IS THE KING OF KINGS AND HE
REIGNS ETERNALLY.
As it was impossible for any other person to
open and read the book in heaven or in the
earth, except Our Lord Jesus Christ (Rev. 5:15), why must it be Him alone who could do
that? He was the one who died in order to save
122

the world and to Him is given power over all


mysteries. From the time of Adam have you
seen any other person who has practiced the
simple commandment of LOVE YE ONE
ANOTHER? NO PERSON HAS EVER LOVED HIS
NEIGHBOR IN THE TRUE PERSPECTIVE AS
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST DID, AND NO SUCH
PERSON WILL EVER EXIST. HE GAVE HIS LIFE
TO FREE US SO THAT HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD
WILL WASH AWAY OUR SINS AND CLEANSE US
AND SO SALVATION IS GRANTED TO ALL WHO
WILL BELIEVE IN HIM.. THAT IS WHY HE
ALONE COULD OPEN AND READ THE BOOK.
HE HAS NOT COME TO BEG THE WORLD TO
LET HIM RULE. NO MATTER YOUR
RELIGION, OR YOUR BELIEF OR YOUR
STATURE AND YOUR STATUS, OUR LORD
JESUS CHRIST HAS COME TO RULE AND
REIGN OVER YOU. SOME RELIGIOUS GROUPS
MAY CLAIM TO HAVE ONE SAVIOR OR
ANOTHER, LET IT BE KNOW TO THEM THAT
THEY ARE WASTING THEIR TIME, FOR ALL
POWERS , HUMAN BEINGS, ALL CREATURES
OF GOD ARE RULED BY OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST.
123

*** IF YOU TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT THE


THREE LESSONS, YOU WILL SEE THAT EACH
IS THE SECOND VERSE OF THE CHAPTERS
CHOSEN. THIS IS QUITE VERY SIGNIFICANT. IT
MEANS SOMETHING GREAT AND SPLENDID.
Let the Second Lesson be read.

Second Bible Lesson: Revelation 21:2


And I John saw the holy city, new
Jerusalem, coming down from God out of
heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her
husband.
What is meant by adorning in the Bible
verse is not the outward adornment of the
physical body. It is the spiritual preparation of
the body by abstaining from sinful acts. All
along I have been adorning you in anticipation
of the great husband of all. Do not call any
other man a husband for he alone is the great
husband. If you are calling any person a
husband be careful for the angels may twist
your lips. You are all brothers and sisters in
124

Christ Jesus. If you watch the number of


divorced women in the world you will believe
that those they call husbands are nothing but
fakes.
NO MARITAL HOME IS IN PEACE EXCEPT
THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST AND REGARD THEMSELVES AS
BROTHERS AND SISTERS. For those who say
this is my wife and so I must command her to
do my wishes, the fire is burning in their
families. Such a wife can even cut off the head
of the so-called husband while he is asleep.
The new heaven and the new earth, the
new Jerusalem IS THE KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS. THE ARRIVAL OF THE NEW
JERUSALEM MEANS THE ARRIVAL OF THE
KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE KING OF KINGS
AND THE LORD OF LORDS. HE HAS BEEN
LAVISHLY ADORNED WITH POWERS OF THE
MOST HIGH TO CONQUER, RULE, AND REIGN
OVER ALL THINGS. HE HAS COME TO RULE
WITH ALL IT TAKES TO BE THE SUPREME
KING OF ALL KINGS AND LORD OF ALL LORDS.
HE HAS NOT COME AS JESUS, SAVIOR,
125

CHRIST BUT HE HAS COME AS THE NEW


JERUSALEM , THE KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS. He has not come to pray for
people or preach from house to house. You can
see that He has not come as the Son, Pope,
Bishop, Pastor or as person holding any such
titles, but He has come as the King of Kings
and Lord of Lords. He came with love, peace,
mercy, truth, power, and all virtues of
righteousness and holiness. He also has come
with the great iron rod to rule all nations.
Remember His answer when His disciples
asked what was going to be their reward for
forsaking everything to follow Him, He replied
that in the regeneration, when all things shall
be made anew, and the son of man sits on
throne of his glory, whatever you have forsaken
to follow Him you will gain back a hundredfold.
(Matthew 19:27-29). Now that He is sitting on
the throne of His Father, have you recognized
Him? He is now in His power and glory, not to
be molested again. He even promised Peter
that they who have forsaken everything to
follow Him will sit on the throne of His glory
with Him to judge the twelve tribes of Israel.
126

This prophecy of Our Lord Jesus Christ has


been made manifest in our time.
John the Baptist cleared the air regarding
who shall baptize with the Holy Spirit and
with Fire. (Matthew 3:11). You are witnesses
to the testimony of the world president of the
witches and wizards that since Leader Olumba
Olumba Obu has changed him he can also
change people. This is a very serious matter
because only the Holy Spirit can change
people. No matter the state of your body, no
matter how sinful and spiritually dirty you may
be He uses the Fire to burn off your iniquities,
and you become pure again.
If you have ever witnessed a bulldozer
bulldozing and felling huge trees to create
wide roads in the thick, virgin forest, then you
will have a slight understanding of what the
King of kings and Lord of Lords is doing
throughout the universe. He destroys your old
self and creates a new spirit within you. That
is why at times you cannot even understand
why you behave in a certain way. What has
brought about the drastic change?

127

A lot of persons see and acknowledge the


changes they see in their brothers and sisters
who previously were very stubborn and evil but
now they have turned a new leaf from the
moment they came into Brotherhood of the
Cross and Stars as members. A brother from
Imo State, Nigeria testified that before His
baptism into the fold he was an extremely, very
stubborn person but it did not take the Holy
Spirit a long time to change him into a gentle,
affable person. He also said that he used to be
very chauvinistic minded because he wanted
to prove that he was a man. But now the Holy
Spirit has changed him to be kind and gentle
like a woman.
The reason why people attend churches
and religious worship services without being
changed is because the so-called leaders and
masters of these churches and religious
organizations do not possess the fire and
spirit to change people. The act of changing
people is not done with mere empty words.
Recall when some young men met a demon
possessed man and they tried to rebuke and
cast the demons out of him in the name of Our
128

Lord Jesus Christ whom Paul preached? The


evil spirits answered and said to those young
men, Jesus I know and Paul I know, but who
are you? The demons then leapt on them,
overcame them and wounded them. The seven
then ran away from the house, naked and
seriously wounded. (Acts 19:13-16).
The churches and religions of the world
and even the governments cannot change any
person. The evil spirit cannot obey them
because they are in bondage of sin, and they
do not have the fire to burn evil. To further
stress the authenticity of the sermon, see the
Golden Text
Golden Text: 2 Corinthians 11:2
For I am jealous over you with godly
jealousy, for I have espoused you to one
husband, that I may present you as a
chaste virgin to Christ.
By reading through the Golden Text, I
hope the sermon is very much clear to you
now. That was why Our Lord Jesus Christ said
those who are counted to be worthy of the
129

new kingdom neither marry nor are given in


marriage (Luke 20:34-35). We are all His
wives and we have put on the marriage ring as
a symbol of our marriage to Him as our
Husband. For the billions and billions of people
in the world and all the other creatures of God
including the angels, Our Lord Jesus Christ is
the only husband .
You all are only brothers and sisters in
Christ. All the instructions which I give you,
regarding repentance and refraining from all
sinful acts, I do all that so as to make you
ready for Him. If you obey my injunctions and
you forsake stealing, fornication, adultery,
idolatry, and other sinful acts, and you trust
that Our Lord Jesus Christ is the only husband,
you will have peace. If the entire humanity
accepts Our Lord Jesus Christ as the only
husband, King of kings and Lord of Lords, then
peace will descend on all of you.
He also had a few names in Sardis who
have not defiled their garments, and they shall
walk with Him in white, being made worthy by
the Lamb. Do not be dumbfounded and
surprised by what you witness here daily.
130

People come here with different intentions:


some come for wealth, others come for
husbands, wives, healing etc. However, He
called all of you before you could get to Him.
Some people say if God does not want
marriage, why then does Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star bless marriage? In actual
sense, what is done in Brotherhood of the
Cross and Star is that of handing both the
brother and sister to Our Lord Jesus Christ.
If a house is divided against itself, it cannot
stand, so all the brothers and sisters who
desire to stay together have to be handed over
to the King of kings who is the only husband.
All the instructions given here in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star concerning
chastity, celibacy, are to make you well
adorned enough to meet Our Lord Jesus Christ,
the King of kings and the Lord of Lords. He is
the New Jerusalem and those who must enter
must be properly adorned in righteousness and
holiness. He has been completely so well
equipped that immediately you are handed over
to Him as your only Husband, all your problems
131

are over, gone forever, and your life is now


secure. So Brethren, that is the mystery of the
teachings and the Marriage Blessing of
Brotherhood.
All these teachings as given in His sermons
are necessary because the Holy Spirit has to
adorn you to meet the satisfaction and the
acceptable taste of the King of kings and Lord
of Lords, the New Jerusalem.
The entire world including all the churches
and religions of the world and the various
religious bodies do not know Him as the one
and only true husband, but I know Him as such.
For that reason, all along I work hard to
prepare you so that you can meet all His
requirements, and be acceptable to Him.
The whole world is suffering because it has
not known Him as the only husband King of
kings and Lord of Lords. As many as know and
rejoice with Him, He gives them everlasting life
and entrance into His Fathers Kingdom.
Many of you are still arguing about what
makes the eating of fish and meat bad, and
why having sexual relations is wrong. You
132

therefore continue to eat meat and fish,


engage in fornication and adultery and many
other sins to your own detriment. Most of the
people who have blessed their marriages are a
hundred times better than some of the Christ
Students. They are even more righteous and
pure than some of the Christ Students.
So beloved Brethren, a stroke of the cane
is sufficient for the wise. Let those who have
ears hear. May the Holy God Bless His Holy
Words. Amen
THANK YOU FATHER.
