THE WORD CENTERPRESENTS

THE MANTLE OF LEADERESHIP OF

THE NEW ERA

WHO WOULD NOT FEAR THEE, O KING OF NATIONS?

JER 10:7

Rev 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

Mat 2:1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

Mat 2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his STAR in the east, and are come to worship him.

Rev 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

Rev 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I

will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Rev 21:7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

Psa_47:6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises. Psa_89:18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king. Isa_33:22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.

Rev 22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

Rev 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

Rev 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Rev 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called THE WORD OF GOD.

Rev 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Rev 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and MORNING STAR.

Act 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

Act 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

Eph 2:11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

Eph 2:14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Eph 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

Rev 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Rev 19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

Rev 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

Rev 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Rev 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

Rev 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

Joh 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

Joh 16:8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

Joh 16:9 Of sin, because they believe not on me; Joh 16:10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father,

and ye see me no more; Joh 16:11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world

is judged. Joh 16:12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye

cannot bear them now. Joh 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come,

he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of

himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Joh 16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Joh 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Joh 16:16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. Joh 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give

you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

Joh 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

Joh 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

Joh 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

Joh 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

Act 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

Act 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

Act 10:36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)

Act 10:37 That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

Act 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

Act 10:39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:

Act 10:40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;

Act 10:41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

Act 10:42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.

Act 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Act 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.

Act 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Act 10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

Act 10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

Act 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

PAUL’S SPEECH AT MARS HILL, ATHENS

Act 17:22 Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.

Act 17:23 For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.

Act 17:24 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

Act 17:25 Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;

Act 17:26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;

Act 17:27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:

Act 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

Act 17:29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like

unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

Act 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Act 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

Act 17:32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.

Act 17:33 So Paul departed from among them. Act 17:34 Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and

believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

THE ONLY HOPE FOR MAN

Joh 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Joh 3:9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

Joh 3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

Joh 3:11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

Joh 3:12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?

Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

JOH 3:14 AND AS MOSES LIFTED UP THE SERPENT IN THE WILDERNESS, EVEN SO MUST THE SON OF MAN BE LIFTED UP:

JOH 3:15 THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE.

Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Recall that when Moses moulded a serpent and hung it on a tree for the people to look upon whenever they were bitten by the deadly snakes, it was only those who

obeyed that were saved and those who did not were destroyed. THEREFORE, IN THIS PRESENT AGE, OF THE MULTITUDE OF PEOPLE WHO WILL LISTEN TO THIS GOSPEL AND COMPLY WITH IT ARE SAVED AND THE LIGHT OF GOD SHALL SHINE UPON THEM.

WHEREVER YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE LIES YOUR MIND. IT IS FOR THIS REASON THAT YOUR DAILY SUBJECT OF DISCUSSION AND INTEREST REST ON MONEY, JUJU, CHARMS, WOMEN, POLITICS, CARS, CLOTHING, FOOD, AND OTHER MATERIAL THINGS. HOW THEN WILL GOD BE PLEASED?

Excerpt from: HE WHO IS TO RULE

DO NOT BE DECEIVED BY ANYBODY WHO MAY RISE TOMORROW AND CLAIM TO BE THE CHIEF PRIEST.

Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. Joh 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you

another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Joh 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot

receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

Joh 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

Col 1:26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

Col 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; WHICH IS CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY:

*STOP GAZING AT THE SKY, IMAGINING HIS LIKENESS. HAVE YOU NOT SEEN HIS LIKENESS WITHIN YOU.

So He alone is worthy, and He is the only Chief Priest. And forever He remains the only Chief Priest, and none will ever emerge again. SO YOU SHOULD NOT BE DECEIVED BY ANYBODY WHO MAY RISE TOMORROW AND CLAIM TO BE THE CHIEF PRIEST. For Our Lord Jesus Christ has taken His glorious throne, and His glory has neither beginning nor an end. He is the Great Teacher who has taken everybody to His Father.

I have been telling you to stop gazing at the sky, imagining His likeness. HAVE YOU NOT SEEN HIS LIKENESS WITHIN YOU. EVEN IN YOUR BEDROOM HE IS ALWAYS CONVERSING DEEPLY WITH YOU. IN

THE PAST, MANY PEOPLE DID NOT SEE HIM, TALK LESS OF CONVERSING WITH HIM. But now you have seen Him, you do not see Him while sailing on the river or flying in the sky alone, but you see Him wherever you go. Then what is the sense of doubting Him?




EXCERPT FROM: HE WHO IS TO RULE

THE AFRICAN STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE

When the whites came to Africa they saw our people and everything they did as crude and uncivilized. Therefore they had to replace all the indigenous governments and institutions with theirs. Before long, Africans began to protest against the colonialist and their system. They agitated for independence. The struggle to free themselves from the yoke of colonialism and bondage intensified and many African countries were later granted political independence. THE QUESTION NOW IS, HAS THAT INDEPENDENCE BROUGHT PEACE AND PROGRESS TO THE AFRICANS? HAS THE STRUGGLE FOR LIBERATION AND DOMINATION CEASED?

There are coups and counter coups, secessions and tribal wars in Africa in particular and in the world in general. Those either appointed or voted into the various political offices have never lived up to expectation. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY NEITHER KNOW GOD NOR HIS LAWS. THEY DO NOT LOVE

HIM. WHEN A BLIND MAN LEADS ANOTHER BLIND MAN, BOTH WILL FALL INTO A DITCH.

WE HAVE A FATHER AND A RULER WHO IS JUST AND CARING, YET MAN HAS REJECTED HIM. HE IS THE ONE WHO HAS ENJOINED YOU NOT CALL ANYBODY FATHER OR LORD FOR HE IS THE ONLY FATHER AND LORD. WE ARE BRETHREN AND DERIVE OUR ORIGIN

FROM HIM. Christ said, "I am the vine, and my Father is the husband man. Every branch in me that beareth not the fruit he taketh away; and every branch that bearth fruit he purgeth it that it may bring forth more fruit." (John 15:1-2).

ONE OF OUR SPIRITUAL CHORUSES RENDERED IN IGBO HAS IT THAT A TREE THAT BLOSSOMS AND YIELDS GOOD FRUIT IS BEING WATERED BY SOMEONE. THEREFORE ANYBODY WHO REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE HIS CREATOR IS CONDEMNED.

Right from the time of Adam and Eve man has never accepted God. Man has always given high regards and recognition to material things. THAT IS A GREAT INSULT TO GOD. WHOEVER ADVISES YOU NOW TO PUT YOUR FAITH AND TRUST IN MAN IS ILL ADVISING YOU AND SUCH A PERSON

SHOULD PRAY FERVENTLY FOR HIMSELF. The scripture has said that: NONE SHOULD HAVE FAITH IN A MAN WHO BREATHS THROUGH HIS NOSTRILS. IS IT NOT A GOOD TIME FOR MANKIND TO LOVE GOD, TO OBEY AND ADORE HIM SO THAT PEACE MAY ABOUND?

There is nothing anybody can do for his fellow man. When Pilate asked Christ a series of questions before His crucifixion, He rebuffed when Pilate told Him that he had power to either set Him free or condemn Him. He retorted

that Pilate himself had no authority to do anything except such power was given to him from above.


LET YOUR LIFESTYLE REVEAL GOD TO THE WORLD.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 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 KINGDOM 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.

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. 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. BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU

AFRICA’S TURN TO HOST THE HOLY SPIRIT

Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Eph 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

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 Africa’s 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 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 WHO 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 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.BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU

I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN, AND WILL HEAL THEIR LAND.

Jer 10:23 O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

Jer 10:24 O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.

2Ch 7:13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;

2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

2Ch 7:15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attend unto the prayer that is made in this place.

1Pe 3:8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

1Pe 3:9 Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

1Pe 3:10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

1Pe 3:11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

1Pe 3:12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

1Pe 3:13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?

1Pe 3:14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;

1Pe 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that

asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

1Pe 3:16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

1Pe 3:17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.

1Pe 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

LEADERSHIP BY EXAMPLE

Luk 22:22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

Luk 22:23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

Luk 22:24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

Luk 22:25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

Luk 22:26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

Luk 22:27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

Luk 22:28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

Luk 22:29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;

Luk 22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

THE TOOLS OF LEADERSHIP USED BY THE FATHER

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.BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………...

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 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 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.BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS SPIRIT IT MEANS YOU HAVE NO GOD

*NO MATTER WHAT YOU MAY DO, IF YOU ARE NOT BORN OF WATER, BLOOD AND SPIRIT, YOU HAVE NO SALVATION. OR SIMPLY PUT, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY ONE CAN BE SAVED EXCEPT HE IS BORN OF WATER, BLOOD AND SPIRIT.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE 23:46

"And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost."

THE SPIRIT IDENTIFIES ONE AS GOD:

WHO IS GOD AND WHO IS THE SON? GOD IS SPIRIT AND THE SON IS THAT SPIRIT AS WELL. IN THEIR IGNORANCE, THE JEWS THREW STONES AT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WHEN HE SAID, "I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE." THIS EXPLAINS THAT THOUGH JESUS CAME AS THE CHRIST, HE WAS ALSO THE FATHER, FOR THE SPIRIT IS ONE. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS SPIRIT IT MEANS YOU HAVE NO GOD. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCOMPLISHED HIS ASSIGNMENT BECAUSE HE HAD THIS SPIRIT IN HIM. WITHOUT THIS SPIRIT HE WOULD NOT HAVE DONE HIS WORK SUCCESSFULLY.

UNFORTUNATELY, THIS SPIRIT IS NOT MEANT FOR ALL THE PEOPLE TO POSSESS. IT IS ONLY FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD. THIS IS WHY THEY ACCOMPLISH THEIR ASSIGNMENT SUCCESSFULLY. THE WORLDLY PEOPLE CANNOT ACCOMPLISH THE WORK OF GOD. THE SPIRIT POSSESSED BY THE WORLDLY PEOPLE IS THE ADAMIC SPIRIT. THIS IS THE SPIRIT OF DISOBEDIENCE. THE POSSESSION OF THIS SPIRIT IS THE CAUSE OF THE WHOLE PROBLEM FACING HUMANITY TODAY.

The worldly people are insisting that the power in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not from God. BUT THEY HAVE FAILED TO REALIZE THAT GOD IS THE ONLY POWER THAT RULES ALL BEINGS. THEY DO NOT KNOW THAT WHEN GOD COMES TO DWELL WITH MAN, HE BECOMES A MAN BUT HE IS HIDDEN FROM THE

ORDINARY EYES. THE ONLY WAY OF IDENTIFYING GOD IS BY THE SPIRIT. Even when Andrew told his brother Simon Peter that they have found the Messiah, even the Christ, it was the spirit that revealed him.

"One of the two which heard John speak and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. He first findeth his own brother Simon and saith unto him, we have found the Messiah, which is being interpreted, the Christ." (JOHN 1:40-41).

It is written that: "AND THERE ARE THREE THAT BEAR WITNESS IN THE EARTH, THE SPIRIT, THE WATER AND THE BLOOD: AND THESE THREE AGREE IN ONE." (1 JOHN 5:8).

In heaven there are three that also unite to become one: "FOR THERE ARE THREE THAT BEAR RECORD IN HEAVEN, THE FATHER, THE WORD AND THE HOLY GHOST: AND THESE THREE ARE ONE. AND THERE ARE THREE THAT BEAR WITNESS ON EARTH, THE SPIRIT, THE WATER AND THE BLOOD: AND THESE THREE AGREE IN ONE." (1 JOHN 5:7-8).

WHOEVER HAS THESE QUALITIES IS TRULY GOD. DO NOT BOTHER TO VISIT MECCA, JERUSALEM, AMERICA OR ANY OTHER PLANE OR CONTINENT IN SEARCH OF GOD; FOR IF THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS NOT IN YOU, YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING. HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN USE YOU TO FULFILL ANY ASSIGNMENT.

Everything that happened to Our Lord Jesus Christ was a fulfillment of all the prophesies about Him. Even as Simon prophesied that a sword shall pierce through Him, it happened accordingly.

It was said that water and blood shall gush out of his side. It also came to pass. The fulfillment of these prophesies proved Him as Christ. It should be noted that if the water and blood did not pass out of His side, our iniquities could not have been washed away. THE DEATH OF CHRIST HAS THEREFORE LEFT A FOUNTAIN OF WATER WHEREBY WE ALL BATHE FOR THE REMISSION OF OUR SINS. IT MAY BE INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT IT WAS ALSO FOR THIS REASON THAT JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS ASKED TO BAPTIZE WITH WATER.

THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER BAPTISM STRESSED:

Henceforth, do not have the erroneous belief that baptism shall cease to be. BAPTISM BY IMMERSION SHALL REMAIN FOREVER. It is a source of salvation for humanity. If your sins and iniquities are not washed away, then you will die with your sins intact. Through faith and baptism, your sins are forgiven and having been washed with the blood of Christ, the Holy Spirit which is life comes into you.

Water and blood and spirit are one. When you are dipped in water by way of baptism, it means you are buried with Christ and when you emerge, you are emerging with life.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU MAY DO, IF YOU ARE NOT BORN OF WATER, BLOOD AND SPIRIT, YOU HAVE NO SALVATION. OR SIMPLY PUT, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY ONE CAN BE SAVED EXCEPT HE IS BORN OF WATER, BLOOD AND SPIRIT. A LOT OF PEOPLE DO NOT TAKE THIS BAPTISM SERIOUSLY. THEY DO NOT EVEN REGARD THE CONFESSION OF SINS AS ANYTHING IMPORTANT IN LIFE. THE CHURCHES DO NOT STRESS THIS EXERCISE AS

A VERY IMPORTANT ASPECT OF WORSHIP. HOWEVER, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST EMPHASIZED ON ITS IMPORTANCE BY SAYING THAT UNLESS ONE IS BORN OF WATER AND OF SPIRIT, SUCH CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

WHEREVER YOU MAY GO, IF THE WORD OF GOD IS NOT DISCUSSED AND BAPTISM IS NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY, AS WELL AS CONFESSION OF SINS, THEN DEPART FROM SUCH A PLACED FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT DWELL THEREIN.

EVEN WHEN YOU ENTER A BETHEL, IF YOU FIND NO HOLY OIL, AND WATER THERE, THEN KNOW THAT GOD IS NOT IN SUCH A BETHEL. WHEREVER YOU GO AND YOU DO NOT FIND THE WORD OF GOD, WATER AND HOLY OIL, THEN DEPART FROM THAT PLACE FOR THE PEOPLE THERE DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THESE THREE THINGS BEAR WITNESS TO THE FACT THAT GOD IS PRESENT IN SUCH A PLACE.

These three things are the main weapon used in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. THE HOLY OIL SIGNIFIES THE BLOOD OF GOD (CHRIST). THIS IS WHAT IS USED IN FORGIVING ALL YOUR SINS AND INIQUITIES. THE WATER IS USED IN WASHING AND CLEANING ALL FILTHINESS AND ONE BECOMES SANCTIFIED.

BAPTISM IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THE CHURCHES AND CULTS DO ALL OVER THE WORLD. FOR THIS REASON ONE MUST BE BAPTISED AGAIN INTO BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR THOUGH ONE MAY HAVE BEEN BAPTISED SEVERAL

TIMES ELSEWHERE. HERE YOU MUST CONFESS AND REPENT OF ALL YOUR SINS BEFORE BAPTISM. ONCE YOU CONFESS, REPENT AND YOU ARE BAPTISED YOU HAVE BECOME A DIFFERENT PERSON. YOUR SALVATION HERE STARTS THE VERY DAY YOU ARE BAPTISED. THIS IS SO BECAUSE YOU ARE FIRST GIVEN THE WORDS OF GOD BEFORE YOUR CONFESSION. WITHOUT PASSING THROUGH THIS WAY, YOU ARE WASTING YOUR TIME. THAT IS WHY THE CHURCHES ARE NOW EMPTY. THEY DO NOT PASS THROUGH THE RIGHT WAY TO GOD AND SO THEY SCATTER BECAUSE OF NOT HAVING RECEIVED THE HOLY SPIRIT, THEY HAVE NO LIFE

There are very many persons in the world who have their shares in this kingdom but they cannot receive them yet because they are not born of water, blood, and Holy Spirit. There are many others who claim to be baptized but have neither their sins remitted nor the Holy Spirit in them. Their baptism is just like having an ordinary bath in the stream or river. It can only become meaningful only when they are anointed with the Holy Oil which signifies the blood of Christ. Once you are anointed after baptism, the Holy Spirit takes possession of your body and you are admitted into the kingdom of God.

SOMETIMES YOU FAST AND PRAY YET THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT MANIFEST. THIS IS BECAUSE YOU DID NOT START WITH CONFESSION OF SINS AND THE SPRINKLING OF WATER AND HOLY OIL.


EXCERPT FROM MYSTERY OF PROPAGATION

THE AFRICANS:AFRICA IS THE FIRST SON, (GENESIS 27:1). AFRICA IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD* TILL THE WORLD COMES TO AN END, NO BLACK MAN WILL BE APPOINTED THE POPE OR THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY BECAUSE THE BLACKS DO NOT COMPREHEND WHAT THEY DO. CAN YOU BECOME THE PROPHET OF MECCA? TILL THE END OF YOUR DAYS YOU WILL NEVER BECOME THE PROPHET.* SO THE SEARCH FOR THE REAL CHRIST CONTINUES. If you go to meet the Pope he will issue you with instructions about his doctrines. Are you not still under his yoke? Africa, are you not under a foreign yoke?*Our Lord Jesus Christ has kindly set us free knowing that we worshipped what we did not know.* IS THERE NO PERSON IN AFRICA WHO HAS FOUND FAVOR WITH GOD? I WANT YOU AFRICANS TO QUESTION YOURSELVES ON THIS ISSUE.* Brethren, do you observe your relative position? It is for this reason that I shed tears when I look at you. Any good thing that emerges from amongst you is down-trodden. What do you want God to do for you? God is born for us. The promised Comforter, the Holy Spirit originates from here. He is everything, He is love, and truth.* The Holy Spirit has arrived in Africa, He dwells in Africa. Africa is the first Son, Africa is the Kingdom

of God where there is joy, which is rich in natural resources, full of honey and milk. * The one that originates from Africa is not known, and which is also easily dismissed with a wave of the hand. SO THE SEARCH FOR THE REAL CHRIST CONTINUES. If you go to meet the Pope he will issue you with instructions about his doctrines. Are you not still under his yoke? Africa, are you not under a foreign yoke?*Our Lord Jesus Christ has kindly set us free knowing that we worshipped what we did not know.*YOU SHOULD GO FORTH TO INFORM THE WHOLE WORLD. But till today, the Africans are quarrelling among themselves, and they cannot decipher the mind of the white man, who indoctrinated them that what they have which is indigenous, is not good enough and so they stand separated. Can you boast of attaining the republicanism?King James I of England Broke With RomeYou are aware of the fact that hitherto, England owed her loyalty to Rome and the Pope, and had to consult with Rome for whatever the people intended to do. Whoever was to be crowned the King of England must have the approval of Rome. But when King James I ascended the throne of England in 1603, he found himself heir to the religious turmoil and confusion that characterized the entire country. He knew that if he continued to be loyal to Rome, he would continue to remain

under the Roman hegemony. King James I, therefore, broke with Rome and founded the Church of England under the leadership of the Archbishop of Canterbury. With the new set up, there was no longer any foreign domination. It is such a country which has attained the real republican status. Go to China today, the people are independent of other countries, they are self-sufficient. The same thing happens in other countries. But all countries in Africa are dependent on others for religion, government, economy and other socio-political and economic institutions because they do not know what they worship.Upon your claim to high attainment in education, upon the number of you who study in foreign countries, the Africans generally have no ideology. I speak this to your shame. However, the Holy Spirit has arrived in Africa, He dwells in Africa. Africa is the first Son, Africa is the Kingdom of God where there is joy, which is rich in natural resources, full of honey and milk. You should go forth to inform the whole world. But till today, the Africans are quarrelling among themselves, and they cannot decipher the mind of the white man, who indoctrinated them that what they have which is indigenous, is not good enough and so they stand separated. Can you boast of attaining the republicanism? DO YOU MEAN TO ARGUE THAT IT IS NOT THE GOD WHO CREATED THE RUSSIANS, THE AMERICANS,

THE BRITONS, THE ISRAELITES AND THE ARABIANS WHO CREATED YOU IN AFRICA? DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER GOD? HAVE YOU SWORN NOT TO BE INDEPENDENT? DO YOU NOT WANT TO FIND YOUR FEET ON THE GROUND? IT IS INCUMBENT UPON YOU TO WORSHIP GOD IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.What Religion Is Indigenous to Nigeria?Our Lord Jesus Christ has kindly set us free knowing that we worshipped what we did not know. What does it mean to God for your attending church services? What actually do you go there to do? THE SO-CALLED BIG MEN sit down there and quarrel and fight, indulging in all forms of diabology and committing murder. It therefore stands to reason that, you do not know what you are worshipping. You find a few persons founding their church denominations, others are doing a similar thing and others are complaining that they have toured around all the church denominations. Must you continue to move from one church denomination to the other? The church denominations always expect that an important person must come to inspect their churches from United States of America, or India or Britain or from any other country. No church denomination has ever originated from Nigeria. No important person has ever gone from Africa to the United States of America to inspect his church denomination there, because the people are very pessimistic, feeling that God has rejected Africa. Is

there no person in Africa who has found favor with God? I want you Africans to question yourselves on this issue.Africa Must AwakeCan the blind lead the blind? If the blind lead the blind, will the two of them not fall into a pit? Can you observe the love which Africans once had with themselves. Now is the era of diplomacy, where craftiness, party spirit, robbery, oppression, grudge are the order of the day. At present, a brother rebels against a brother and warns that if he is not a Roman Catholic, or a Mount Zion, or Apostolic, or Moslem, he should no longer visit his house. Did your father ever establish Mohammedanism? Do you know what obtains in Roman Catholic or Mount Zion, or Apostolic? Do you not realize that freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom of religion were enshrined in the Nigerian constitution for your benefit? What happens now? Three religious organizations are purportedly recognized in Nigeria. They are: Roman Catholicism which originates from Rome, Islam which originates from Mecca, and the Protestant churches which also originate from Europe. Which is the Nigerian indigenous religion? The one that originates from Africa is not known, and which is also easily dismissed with a wave of the hand. SO THE SEARCH FOR THE REAL CHRIST CONTINUES. If you go to meet the Pope he will issue you with

instructions about his doctrines. Are you not still under his yoke? Africa, are you not under a foreign yoke? Do you know what you are worshipping? Do you understand what your masters are doing? Is the Catholic headquarters established here? Whatever instructions are passed down by the Prophet or Archbishop of Canterbury or Pope must be carried out, but we remain without a religion and an ideology. Since you started attending these foreign church denominations, has any black man ever been appointed a Pope? TILL THE WORLD COMES TO AN END, NO BLACK MAN WILL BE APPOINTED THE POPE OR THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY BECAUSE THE BLACKS DO NOT COMPREHEND WHAT THEY DO. CAN YOU BECOME THE PROPHET OF MECCA? TILL THE END OF YOUR DAYS YOU WILL NEVER BECOME THE PROPHET.The Blacks Despise Themselves And What They HaveBrethren, do you observe your relative position? It is for this reason that I shed tears when I look at you. Any good thing that emerges from amongst you is down-trodden. What do you want God to do for you? God is born for us. The promised Comforter, the Holy Spirit originates from here. He is everything, He is love, and truth. Food and every other thing is found in abundance. Here there is oneness which is Brotherhood. Brotherhood regards all the whites, blacks, coloured, and indeed all the inhabitants of the world as one.

It is a common thing in the present age to find the white loving only what is theirs, not minding its worthlessness but despising what belongs to the blacks even if it is of a superlative degree. But the blacks on the other hand love whatever is foreign no matter how ugly, and despise what is indigenous no matter how pretty. Is that how to live?BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBUTHE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSEBROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.Excerpt from: WHITHER AFRICA………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

POLITICS: GLOBAL UNREST

* FROM 1992, THERE IS GOING TO BE HARDSHIP, TROUBLE IN THE WORLD BUT THE CHILDREN OF GOD WILL NOT BE TOUCHED. PUT THE WORD OF GOD FIRST AND FOREMOST INTO PRACTICE.

GLOBAL POLICE ACTION:

Women now want to become Royal Highneses. Have you not heard about wars between cities and countries? The kind of famine that is in the world has never been witnessed. Orange is now sold for one naira each; gari sells at one naira a cup. The rate of sinfulness is very alarming indeed. There is unemployment, and no matter what you do, no one appreciates the work or meaning of love. You are trying to render help and instead of you receiving thanks you are paid back with a bad coin. No one can control the rate of crime wave any longer.

The white brethren who claimed to be the best in knowledge, character and style are now very empty. There is no money, no work, nothing anywhere. It is even worse in the European countries once considered to be advanced and self sufficient.

There is a state of confusion all over the universe. Who do you think is responsible of all these happenings?

EVERYDAY, YOU SING, "FATHER SEND DOWN THY POWER," AND THEY FATHER SAYS GO ALL IS WELL..." WHEN YOU GO NOTHING IS WELL. WHY IS THIS SO? PRACTICE THE WORD OF GOD AND ALL WILL BE WELL-(REV.3:7-12).

SO LONG AS YOU CONTINUE TO WALLOW IN SIN, WHEN YOU SAY AMEN- WHERE WILL YOU FIND THIS AMEN? IS THE TRUTH HIDDEN? DO THESE THINGS TAKE YOU UNAWARE?

A LOT OF THINGS ARE STILL TO BE REVEALED TO YOU. WHAT IS PREVALENT IN THE WORLD IS MERE POLICE ACTION ALL OVER THE WORLD.(HEBREWS 12:25-END; LUKE 17:22-24 2PETER 3:8-13).

REAL UNTOLD HARDSHIP:

FROM 1992, THERE IS GOING TO BE HARDSHIP, TROUBLE IN THE WORLD BUT THE CHILDREN OF GOD WILL NOT BE TOUCHED. PUT THE WORD OF GOD FIRST AND FOREMOST INTO PRACTICE.

CAN YOU SEE NOW THAT PEOPLE ARE SEEING THE WHOLE TRUTH: HERE WE NEITHER BURN INCENSE NOR SPRAY PERFUME, YET ALL IS WELL. ***WE DO NOT GO TO THE WATERSIDE TO WORSHIP.***

All these period that you have been doing these fetish things, of what gain have they been to you? The reason why you overcome the world is because the Holy Spirit is here, the Son is here, and the Father is also here.

YOU ARE RICH IN THE WORD OF GOD AND IF YOU ARE ASKED WHAT HAS THIS FATHER OF YOURS GIVEN YOU, TELL THEM HE HAS GIVEN YOU THE WORD OF GOD.

What is great to you this day is very small but what you have witnessed this day is greater. I want you to put this into practice and make it your garment. NO PHENOMENON CAN EXERCISE AUTHORITY AGAIN OVER THIS WORLD. You heard that majority of Indians are now embracing BCS. You are enjoined to give money to

people and you are asked to go and practice the word of God.

As you pray that God should take away temptation from you, if the temptation is taken from you where will you get your crown? Instead of you to strive to overcome temptation, you shout

"Oh Father, take away temptation because it is great. When you are in school you sit for examination, when you pass a certificate will be awarded to you.



BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR

EXCERPT FROM: FAREWELL ADDRESS

....................................................................................... POLITICS

DEMOCRACY

A NEW WORLD WITH A NEW ORDER:

It is said that when the priesthood is changed the law of necessity must be changed. The whole world is falling. Everybody is falling one after the other because of their disobedience. The Kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdoms of Jehovah God and His Christ. The Kingdoms of this world have therefore been destroyed.

HENCEFORTH, IF A GROUP OF PEOPLE VOTE FOR AND DECLARE A PARTICULAR PERSON THE PRESIDENT, GOVERNOR, OR ROYAL HIGHNESS, SUCH ELECTED

PERSON WILL NOT BE SWORN INTO OFFICE, EXCEPT HE IS RIGHTEOUS.

God alone shall appoint the right people into various offices, be they political, civil, or religious. This explains why Our Lord Jesus Christ said that only those who kept His words were His parents, brethren, and friends.

THE REIGN OF THE HOLY SPIRIT:

POLITICS, HUMAN GOVERNANCE OR WHATEVER NAME YOU CALL IT, DEMOCRACY IS DEAD AND GONE FOREVER. NOW IS THE TIME FOR THE MANIFESTATION OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND HIS CHRIST, WHERE HE REIGNS FOREVER WITH LOVE, PEACE, HUMILITY, TRUTH, AND ALL GOOD VIRTUES.

All the problems and confusion in the world today are caused by God, thus signaling the end of human activities. Liars, oppressors, cheats, fornicators, murderers and swindlers are playing for time. Their activities are gradually coming to an end thus giving way to the reign of God and His elects.

It is only the complete take-over of governance of the world affairs by God that will bring about world peace, love, oneness, and prosperity to mankind. And nobody can oppose the appointment of those God chooses into political, civil or religious offices.

HE IS THE ONLY WORTHY PROTECTOR:

In His Kingdom, there is no police, no courts, no cheating, no oppression, no looting of the treasury, no dishonesty among other vices. The events in and around the world today indicate the end of human activities. Human beings are so wicked, fraudulent, and satanic. The Truth has come to reign with His righteous children because God rules in truth and uses truth and love to judge. Let the Golden Text be read.




Excerpt from: A GUIDE TO MANKIND

……………………………………………………………………………………….

GOD SYMPATHIZES WITH THE BLACKS

Eph 2:1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

Eph 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Eph 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

Eph 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

Eph 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

Eph 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

Eph 2:7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

* IT DOES NOT SERVE ANY USEFUL PURPOSE TO GAZE AT THE SKY AND SAY UNTIL JESUS CHRIST COME AGAIN. HE SAYS I USE THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD TO BEGET YOU AND YOU BECOME THE CHILDREN OF GOD.

* Without the Holy Spirit what is capable of driving out lying, greed, death, sickness and every haphazard spirit from your body?

You can see how merciful God is with the Black man. And you see how God is merciful to the poor. He is so compassionate with the orphans, the blind and the lame. See how God is sympathetic with the afflicted, with those in tribulation and all those who suffer. A spiritual chorus says the afflicted should weep no more because the Savior is not on the way; He is already here with us. God knows that if He had started His operation in the white man's country then the black man would have perished. If this work were to start with the whites how many of you here would be there? Not very long from now you will see the whites flying in airplanes and landing here. And the cost means nothing to

them. That is why God has chosen to begin this work with the poor blacks. Those who were not His People are now His Beloved.

Notice that some of you have been here for the past twenty years but your twenty years are of no effect to you. IF A WHITE MAN COMES IN HERE FOR ONE DAY, HE WILL ASSIMILATE AND BEGIN TO PRACTICE ALL THAT HE HAS LEARNT. BUT YOUR TWENTY YEARS HAVE NOT DONE ANY GOOD THING TO YOU. ONE THING IS SURE; GOD HAS NEVER FORGOTTEN HIS PROMISE. AS IT WAS WRITTEN IN HOSEA "THOSE WHO WERE NOT MY PEOPLE SHALL BE CALLED MY PEOPLE AND SHE THAT WAS NOT LOVED SHALL BE CALLED MY BELOVED." THE WHITE MAN HAS NO REGARD FOR THE BLACK MAN. THE OTHER COLORED PEOPLE HAVE NO REGARD FOR THE BLACK MAN. NOT TO TALK ABOUT AFRICA, NOT TO TALK ABOUT NIGERIA. YOU WOULD NOT EVEN MENTION THE CROSS RIVER STATE, BUT TODAY GOD HAS LOOKED KINDLY ON YOU AND HE HAS SALVAGED YOU FROM YOUR RUIN INTO HIS GREAT GLORY.

We are all begotten of God by His Words:

How many people now realize that they are the children of God? Up till today you are still claiming that you are human. Have you heard what the first lesson has told you? He says I use the Holy Spirit to drive away the evil spirit from you and then you become the children of God.

I have used the Word of God to beget all of you sitting down here as the real children of God. There is no other thing which can be used in begetting you apart from the Word of God. WHAT QUALIFIES YOU AS A SON IS THE WORD OF GOD WHICH DWELLS RICHLY IN YOU. WHAT MAKES HIM THE FATHER IS THAT HE USES THE WORD TO BEGET YOU.

It is a thing of great joy for all the inhabitants of the world to come to the realization that we are all the children of God. WE ARE NOT ADOPTED CHILDREN BUT THE TRUE SONS OF GOD. THERE IS NO OTHER MEDIUM THROUGH WHICH A MAN CAN BE BEGOTTEN WITH THE IMAGE AND LIKENESS OF GOD EXCEPT THAT GOD HAS TO BEGET SUCH A PERSON.

The New Covenant:

And that is why it should be very expedient for all the children of God to come in here to accept Him. It is a great fortune for all of you here, not to you alone but to the entire mankind. Because He has said this is the New Covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord. "I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people. And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, know the Lord: for all shall know

me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more." Are these Words not made manifest within you today?

All of you sitting down here and all the inhabitants of the world, I use the Word of God to beget you. As you enslaved yourself to sin from now on you must enslave yourself to the Holy Spirit. REALIZE THAT THESE WORDS HAVE BEEN FULFILLED IN YOU: THE KINGDOM OF THIS WORLD HAVE BECOME THE KINGDOM

OF JEHOVAH GOD AND HIS CHRIST. It is not such a thing that you should begin to ask if you are the child of God. You are the child of God because God dwells in you. IT DOES NOT SERVE ANY USEFUL PURPOSE TO GAZE AT THE SKY AND SAY UNTIL JESUS CHRIST COME AGAIN. HE SAYS I USE THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD TO BEGET YOU AND YOU BECOME THE CHILDREN OF GOD.

Without the Holy Spirit what is capable of driving out lying, greed, death, sickness and every haphazard spirit from your body? The first lesson will now be read.

AFRICANS: POST CHRIST’S RESURRECTION ATTROCITIES AGAINST THE AFRICANS.

Eph 2:11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

Eph 2:14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

When the whites came to Africa they saw our people and everything they did as crude and uncivilized. Therefore they had to replace all the indigenous governments and institutions with theirs. Before long, Africans began to protest against the colonialist and their system. They agitated for independence. The struggle to free themselves from the yoke of colonialism and bondage intensified and many African countries were later granted political independence. THE QUESTION NOW IS, HAS THAT INDEPENDENCE BROUGHT PEACE AND PROGRESS TO THE AFRICANS? HAS THE STRUGGLE FOR LIBERATION AND DOMINATION CEASED?

There are coups and counter coups, secessions and tribal wars in Africa in particular and in the world in general.

Those either appointed or voted into the various political offices have never lived up to expectation. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY NEITHER KNOW GOD NOR HIS LAWS. THEY DO NOT LOVE HIM. WHEN A BLIND MAN LEADS ANOTHER BLIND MAN, BOTH WILL FALL INTO A DITCH.

WE HAVE A FATHER AND A RULER WHO IS JUST AND CARING, YET MAN HAS REJECTED HIM. HE IS THE ONE WHO HAS ENJOINED YOU NOT CALL ANYBODY FATHER OR LORD FOR HE IS THE ONLY FATHER AND LORD. WE ARE BRETHREN AND DERIVE OUR ORIGIN FROM HIM. Christ said, "I am the vine, and my Father is the husband man. Every branch in me that beareth not the fruit he taketh away; and every branch that bearth fruit he purgeth it that it may bring forth more fruit." (John 15:1-2).

ONE OF OUR SPIRITUAL CHORUSES RENDERED IN IGBO HAS IT THAT A TREE THAT BLOSSOMS AND YIELDS GOOD FRUIT IS BEING WATERED BY SOMEONE. THEREFORE ANYBODY WHO REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE HIS CREATOR IS CONDEMNED.

Right from the time of Adam and Eve man has never accepted God. Man has always given high regards and recognition to material things. THAT IS A GREAT INSULT TO GOD. WHOEVER ADVISES YOU NOW TO PUT YOUR FAITH AND TRUST IN MAN IS ILL ADVISING YOU AND SUCH A PERSON SHOULD PRAY FERVENTLY FOR HIMSELF. The scripture has said that: NONE SHOULD HAVE FAITH IN A MAN WHO BREATHS THROUGH HIS NOSTRILS. IS IT NOT A GOOD TIME FOR MANKIND TO LOVE GOD, TO OBEY AND ADORE HIM SO THAT PEACE MAY ABOUND?

There is nothing anybody can do for his fellow man. When Pilate asked Christ a series of questions before His crucifixion, He rebuffed when Pilate told Him that he had power to either set Him free or condemn Him. He retorted that Pilate himself had no authority to do anything except such power was given to him from above.

The Jews regarded Christ as an evil man and troublemaker. BUT GOD SAID HE WAS HIS BELOVED SON IN WHOM HE WAS WELL PLEASED AND THAT THE WORLD SHOULD LISTEN TO HIM (CHRIST). Of the two, the world and God, who is a liar? On another occasion when they were well fed with bread and fish by the Lord, the Jews were so pleased that they wanted to crown Him their king. Knowing their plans, He departed from the area because such exercise did not bring glory to God. HE WENT AWAY TO ADVANCE THE GLORY OF HIS FATHER. Let reference be made to the second lesson.




Excerpt from: HE WHO IS TO RULE

THE AFRICANS

BLACK ON BLACK ATTROCITIES:

RESTORE YOUR BRETHREN TO THEIR PREVIOUS STATE

If you go to the prison overseas, you will discover that prisoners are not tortured and humiliated as

done in Nigeria. Prisoners are not punished and they are paid salary, and also they wear what they like. But in this part of the globe prisoners are tied to stakes, and shot to death. Others are punished in various ways. Until now, are you fed up in this atrocious act of yours? I want you to listen to our second lesson as it is going to be read. That is your homework: Take a record of your wickedness from Adam, and since you started killing, disgracing, defiling, drinking, fornicating, indulging in diabolical practices and doing other unseemly things, yet to no avail. Now the whites have come to their wits end. They have seen their ignorance, the Germans are not left out in this issue of eye opening. You have been fighting, quarrelling and killing. Do you eat the corpse of those you kill? And even though you may eat it, will it satisfy you? If somebody dies, will somebody not be born? What indeed is relatively new? We look for a new thing now. This is the new heaven and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. That is the new thing which we yearn for.

SECOND LESSON: GALATIANS 6:1

"Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. "

RESTORE YOUR BRETHREN TO THEIR PREVIOUS STATE

Have you heard that? Realize that in overseas, if you are reported to the police the police will not come and arrest you indiscriminately. Your telephone number will be taken and somebody will dial your number and advise you to report at the police station and then will you go there. If any policeman attempts to arrest you, without following this protocol he will be charged for assault. That is the case over there. They have realized that all this time they have been beating mankind, punishing and torturing him, no benefit has come out of that. And all this time that you have been bullying, cheating, beating up people and bearing malice against others, discriminating and charging others to court; you have imprisoned, killed and tortured the rest, what good has come to your family? Have you lived long? Where are your parents and great-grand-parents? Are you not fed up with this act of gross sinfulness? OVER HERE THERE IS A DEATH PENALTY FOR WHOEVER COMMITS MURDER, BUT IN THE WESTERN WORLD SUCH A THING DOES NOT ARISE. THE CULPRIT WILL BE GIVEN LIFE IMPRISONMENT OVER THERE. HE LIVES THERE PERMANENTLY WITHOUT GOING OUT AGAIN. But logically, if somebody kills and you kill him, don't you know you will be killed? If you condemn somebody to death, note that you are also dead. THE WHITES HAVE STARTED TO REALIZE THINGS WHICH THEY DID NOT KNOW IN THE PAST BECAUSE THEY LACKED THE HOLY SPIRIT. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ILLUMINATING THEIR PATH NOW. BUT IMAGINE A LARGE CONTINENT LIKE AFRICA, INSTEAD FOR YOU TO UNITE IN ONE AND FORM A FORMIDABLE FRONT, YOU TEND TO SEGREGATE AND AVENGE YOURSELVES.

Over here, if you happen to be the driver of a vehicle involved in an accident, and you have knocked somebody down, if you don't run away the inhabitants of that area will surround you with sticks, clubs, matches and guns, set your vehicle ablaze and finally kill you. At times it does not even concern them in any way, and if you were up to two people, both of you will be killed, making the number of corpses three. What profit is there in doing such a thing? In other words, you cause somebody you suspected to have stolen your property to be apprehended and jailed. By so doing, have you retrieved your property? Is that thief in the prison for your own good? What really is your gain? Combat does not terminate at throwing down an opponent. The family of the person imprisoned and their community members will challenge that act and it will not be that easy for you. That trouble caused by the two families or communities will raise dust. What goes on in the world is "tit for tat." A GREAT MANY MISHAPS WE HAVE HEARD ABOUT IN THE WESTERN WORLD OCCURRED ACCIDENTALLY, BUT THAT OF THE BLACKS, THEY ACT DEVILISHLY AND UNJUSTLY. YOU ARE RULED BY SINS AND EVILS. SIN HAS EATEN DEEP INTO YOU AS A CANKERWORM. THE INFANT, ADULT, YOUNG, OLD, MAN OR WOMAN COMMITS EVILS. THERE IS NOBODY WHO IS READY TO DO ANYTHING GOOD. YOU MOVE ABOUT WITH YOUR KNIFE TIED ROUND YOUR WAIST. AND THE BLACK MAN DOES NOT BELIEVE IN THE WORD

"ACCIDENT." That is why our second lesson says: "If a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted." But if we beat such a person, or punish him in what ever way necessary, it means we

have committed the worst crime. Who has not offended amongst us? Right now as we are seated here listening to the gospel, should anybody now disturb either by shouting, or misbehaving anyhow, everybody will run to his direction. He will be captured; and before you know it he has been tied legs and hands and thrown on the ground, his legs twisted and his neck squeezed. He will be beaten and dealt with ruthlessly. When you act in this way, don't you know that your punishment is greater than his? As children of God if somebody does something which is not good admonish him peacefully and gradually he will change. And in the end you will show to him his fault without hurting his feelings and yours too.

If somebody steals your property don't broadcast it. But get closer the culprit and exhort him peacefully and gently, in the end you will successfully make him realize his fault without being angry with you. If you report a thief to the police and he is arrested don't you know that your sin is greater than his? If you take him to the soothsayer, juju priest, or witch doctor to cast lots and know the truth, don't you think that your offence is greater than his? If you curse and beat him up, don't you know that you have also offended? That is why you are asked to "take heed lest you fall." That is the constituent of the teaching I impart to you. Whoever says he stands should take heed lest he falls. When you curse people, get angry, beat somebody up and punish others, don't you fall by so doing? You give your car to somebody but incidentally he got involved in an accident and possibly

damaged your car. You become so infuriated that you demand a new car as compensation from him. What happens if you were the one driving the car and had the car damaged? Would you not have said it was an accident? Why tell the driver to buy you a new car?

LEAVE VENGEANCE FOR GOD, HE WILL REPAY:

You must have heard the testimony of that chief magistrate who said he had a case of manslaughter in court; it is because of that type of situation. He said his nephew was intimate with his daughter in his house the first time and he pardoned him. As if that was not enough, the nephew repeated that shabby act and because of that the chief magistrate admitted he sent the boy home and refused him education. But when the magistrate went home on one occasion he discovered that his nephew was still there. He was angry and he drove him away and got him seriously smacked. Along the line the young man died. When the boy died he was charged for manslaughter. BRETHREN, IF YOU ARE OBSERVANT AND THOUGHTFUL, YOU WILL REALIZE THAT THE TEACHING I IMPART UNTO YOU IS EXCELLENT.

* This is in consonance with the action of someone who has missed his brother for a long time. Of course, he will readily assume or even embrace any person who resembles or bears any semblance of that brother.

IN SEARCH OF CHRIST:

First Bible Lesson: Hebrews 7:24-26

"But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. 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. For such a high priest becomes us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens."

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."

Golden Text: Hebrews 13:7-8 "Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation. Jesus Christ the same, yesterday, and today, and forever."

INTRODUCTORY SONG: I AM THAT PERSON SAVED BY THE LORD.

DID CHRIST DIE?

Act 3:13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.

Act 3:14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;

Act 3:15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.

Act 10:39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:

Act 10:40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;

Act 10:41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

Act 10:42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.

Act 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Act 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.

When Our Lord Jesus Christ was in the world, and even after His death and resurrection, no one understood His ways. At times He appeared, may be, in the midst of two or three persons, and before they knew it, He disappeared. He appeared before Peter and the rest of them, and disappeared in like manner. All these took place to

confirm the local adage which says cocoyam is cooked in accordance with its specie. This is in consonance with the action of someone who has missed his brother for a long time. Of course, he will readily assume or even embrace any person who resembles or bears any semblance of that brother. There is a high probability that his assumption is right, especially when the person presumed to be his brother begins to exhibit some familiar actions, such as asking about the family and other personal matters. IN LIKE MANNER SHALL ALL BELIEVERS RECOGNIZE OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ON HIS SECOND COMING. ALREADY YOU HAVE HEARD THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND SHALL, FOREVER, REMAIN SO. Also the content of our First Bible Lesson in Hebrews 7:24-26, has made Him clear to us. So you have the duty of going home with today's message and meditate over it.

I am only reminding you because if you recall the type of life led by Our Lord Jesus Christ during His manifestation on earth, and then compare it to what is now going on in the world, you will only draw conclusions by yourself without waiting for somebody else to reveal it to you. Even the First Lesson has revealed that He is not dead even though people claim that He is dead. Peter was a very powerful disciple yet he argued that Our Lord Jesus Christ would not die. That was when Our Lord

Jesus Christ informed them that He would die but resurrect on the third day. Peter's argument was based on the fact the fact that it is written from the beginning that Christ will not taste of death forever. (Matt 16:21-24). So as human, when he heard Christ pronounce that He would die, he became confused and even doubted whether Jesus was the real Christ or the Promised Messiah. Thus, Peter contemplated within himself, "It was written that He will not die, and if it happens that this very one will die it means he is not the one. I have derailed from the right path and my soul shall not be at peace."

What happened is that He died, and resurrected on the third day. And the logic in the statement has to do with THE TRANSFORMATION FROM THE FLESH TO THE SPIRIT. And you could now hear what has been told us this day that He lives forever. But all other churches believe and proclaim that He is dead. The question is when did He die? Have they not been seeing that portion in the scripture? Since you continue to claim that Jesus Christ is beneath the earth, or in the sky etc. have you not seen His work going on? Have you ever seen the work of a dead man in the world going on as smoothly as when he was alive? Once you die, all your belongings are dead because the people you left behind will misuse and mismanage them.

Who united the world? Recall that even when Our Lord Jesus was born the world did not recognize Him but now has the world not recognized Him? Many still do not believe in Him. HERE IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR WE BELIEVE IN CHRIST, IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. SO WHENEVER YOU ARE TALKING TO HIM, ADDRESS HIM AS IF HE IS FACING YOU DIRECTLY AT THAT POINT IN TIME. WHENEVER YOU WANT TO HAVE ANY DEALINGS WITH HIM, DO IT RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE YOU HAVE SEEN HIM PHYSICALLY. DO NOT FEAR.

Even now, He still appears at any time and any where He likes. He is still healing the sick. That is why by singing songs and rebuking the sickness, the sick get healed right. This shows that He is the doer of all the activities carried on here, the singing, dancing, praying etc. HE IS THE TEACHER AND THE ADVISER.

If you doubt it, then I ask you, have you ever gone on any workshop to train as a preacher? Have you ever gone to India, America, Israel, or anywhere in the world to be trained as a preacher? If no, then where did you acquire the wisdom and truth with which most of you preach? Meanwhile, have you ever seen a priest who is truthful? So He alone is worthy, and He is the only Chief Priest. And forever He remains the only Chief Priest, and none will ever emerge again. SO YOU SHOULD NOT BE

DECEIVED BY ANYBODY WHO MAY RISE TOMORROW AND CLAIM TO BE THE CHIEF PRIEST. For Our Lord Jesus Christ has taken His glorious throne, and His glory has neither beginning nor an end. He is the Great Teacher who has taken everybody to His Father.

I have been telling you to stop gazing at the sky, imagining His likeness. Have you not seen His likeness within you. Even in your bedroom He is always conversing deeply with you. In the past, many people did not see Him, talk less of conversing with Him. But now you have seen Him, you do not see Him while sailing on the river or flying in the sky alone, but you see Him wherever you go. Then what is the sense of doubting Him?

CHRIST'S CRUCIFIXION MARKS THE BEGINNING OF NEW LIFE :* IN THE PAST, THERE WAS NO AEROPLANE; AND ALL THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENT AND ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE NOW SEEING, INCLUDING CIVILIZATION STARTED ON THAT VERY DAY.

And the 'He' stands for a human being. Hence it is said: when He shall come. SO HE IS NOW GOING ABOUT EVERYWHERE AND AT THE SAME TIME ACCOMPLISHING

HIS WORK. That is why whenever you want to go on ministry work, and you invite Him to follow you along, He does not hesitate to go before and behind you.* If the whites are capable of going to the moon, as well as carrying out many acts to the amazement of many, then how much more God? What do you think He cannot do? HE HAS COME IN A HIDDEN WAY,

HENCE NONE COULD SEE HIM. The people of the world have tried to wage war against Him but they have failed, so they restrict their move.*THAT IS WHY I AM TELLING YOU THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS RIGHT HERE AND WHENEVER YOU WANT TO DISCUSS WITH HIM, DO SO WITH ALL AMOUNT OF ASSURANCE THAT YOU ARE DISCUSSING FACE TO FACE WITH HIM. IF HE WERE NOT HERE NO ONE WOULD HAVE LED YOU INTO THIS KINGDOM.

I have been telling you to stop gazing at the sky, imagining His likeness. Have you not seen His likeness within you. Even in your bedroom He is always conversing deeply with you. In the past, many people did not see Him, talk less of conversing with Him. But now you have seen Him, you do not see Him while sailing on the river or

flying in the sky alone, but you see Him wherever you go. Then what is the sense of doubting Him?SPIRITUAL CHORUS:HE IS THE KING OF KINGS. HE IS THE LORD OF LORDS. JESUS CHRIST THE FIRST AND THE LAST NO ONE IS LIKE HIM. HE MADE THE LAME TO WALK, HE MADE THE BLIND TO SEE, HE MADE THE DEAD TO RISE, NO ONE IS LIKE HIM.CHRIST'S CRUCIFIXION MARKS THE BEGINNING OF NEW

LIFE : Brethren, this is now His time; hence none can withstand Him. The Spirit which descended on Him during His baptism was a sign. That was why it was said that whoever the spirit shall descend upon is the one who shall baptize with spirit and with fire. The purpose of the Spirit that descended upon Him was in order for people to say or declare that He is the one. It is unlike when one declares or proclaims that when you see some one putting on red, black or immaculate white garment that he is the one. BUT THE SIGN YOU ARE BEING TOLD IS A SPECIAL ONE THAT WAS REVEALED TO JOHN TO ENABLE

HIM TO IDENTIFY HIM. (John 1:32-34). Remember when Our Lord Jesus Christ was led into the wilderness to be tempted? But what was the outcome of the temptations? Were they able to overcome Him? Did He not overcome the temptations? THEN WHO IN THE

WORLD CAN WITHSTAND HIM? He walked freely on the seas, He could appear before two or three persons, and even greet them.On the first day of His crucifixion, a mere calling on the name of His Father around 3 p.m. something miraculous happened. This is because it is said

when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of Man they shall all rise. That amongst them the righteous shall live in peace while the sinners shall remain in judgement. Before this time, there was no spirit because everybody ranging from Adam was still on earth. They were taken by death and tortured by Hades. That is why He came in order to go and gather them unto salvation. (Heb 2:14-15/Eph 4:8)IN THE PAST, THERE WAS NO AEROPLANE; AND ALL THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENT AND ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE NOW SEEING, INCLUDING CIVILIZATION STARTED ON THAT VERY DAY. HE DID REDEEM EVERYBODY HENCE THERE EXISTS NO MORE DEATH, GNASHING OF TEETH ETC., AND HE LIVES FOREVER. HE IS PRESENT EVEN RIGHT HERE. HE IS IN YOU,

IN OUR MIDST, HE IS BOTH PHYSICAL AND INVISIBLE. You can see that HE is referred to as 'HE' and not 'she' or 'it.' And the 'He' stands for a human being. Hence it is said: when He shall come. SO HE IS NOW GOING ABOUT EVERYWHERE AND AT THE SAME TIME

ACCOMPLISHING HIS WORK. That is why whenever you want to go on ministry work, and you invite Him to follow you along, He does not hesitate to go before and behind you. Do you think Peter was responsible for all the work he did? Or do you think he was going about alone? It was even after the crucifixion of Our Lord Jesus Christ that Peter and even Paul became very famous as far as the work of God is concerned. This shows that He was the person accomplishing those works. Recall how

Peter was imprisoned and an angel came and set him free by loosing the band on his hands and legs, as well as opening the gate for him to go out? (Acts 12:3-11).WHO DO YOU THINK WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE THINGS? THERE IS NOTHING THAT MAN CAN DO TO HIM. DEATH ITSELF HAS NO DOMINION OVER HIM. RATHER HE CAN EVEN KICK DEATH AS ONE KICKS A FOOTBALL. The parable which referred to the kingdom as the likeness of a grain of mustard seed signified Him. In fact He was referring to Himself. Thus he said... (See Matt 13:31-32)BRETHREN, IS IT NOT WHAT YOU ARE NOW SEEING? DO YOU THINK HE CAN AT THIS MOMENT ENTER INTO A WOMAN'S WOMB? WHO IS THAT WOMAN WHO CAN GIVE BIRTH TO HIM? WHICH COMMUNITY CAN HE LIVE IN? WHO IS CAPABLE OF ADVISING HIM? HE HAS ASSUMED HIS GLORIOUS SEAT, AND HAS GROWN TO AN UN-QUANTIFIABLE AND INDESCRIBABLE EXTENT. HIS GLORY HAS MULTIPLIED A HUNDREDFOLD. SO, NOT EVEN THE WIND, WATER, BIRD, OR MAN CAN WITHSTAND HIS POWER.If He has overcome death as well as Hades then what do you actually think about Him? Does it mean that He is now in the sky? ARE YOU AWARE OF HIS PRESENCE? IS ANYONE, THE WORLD OVER, AWARE OF HIS PRESENCE ON EARTH? I AM TELLING YOU THAT JESUS THE CHRIST IS PRESENT RIGHT HERE ON EARTH. HE IS THE PERSON GETTING EVERYTHING

PREPARED. THE PROBLEM IS THAT HE HAS NOT COME THE WAY YOU EXPECTED.

If the whites are capable of going to the moon, as well as carrying out many acts to the amazement of many, then how much more God? What do you think He cannot do? HE HAS COME IN A HIDDEN WAY,

HENCE NONE COULD SEE HIM. The people of the world have tried to wage war against Him but they have failed, so they restrict their move. THAT IS WHY I AM TELLING YOU THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS RIGHT HERE AND WHENEVER YOU WANT TO DISCUSS WITH HIM, DO SO WITH ALL AMOUNT OF ASSURANCE THAT YOU ARE DISCUSSING FACE TO FACE WITH HIM. IF HE WERE NOT HERE NO ONE WOULD HAVE LED YOU INTO THIS KINGDOM.

Even the whites who proclaim that Our Lord Jesus Christ is dead are wrong, but I pray that God should forgive them. Imagine such proclamation against somebody who is seated on His throne.As I have said earlier, this is a glorious time. That is why even the whites and the great men of this earth can no longer brag, for He is mightier than they are. We are His witnesses hence you now have the power to kick these great men of the world like professors, doctors, etc. with your foot. THIS ABILITY DOES NOT COME FROM YOU BUT FROM OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. THIS IS THE VERY COMFORTER, OF WHOM IT WAS PROPHESIED WOULD COME AND TEACH YOU ALL THINGS AND CLARIFY ALL THINGS TO YOU. But for His coming, who would have told you, or how would you know what had taken place, or what will take place

thousands of years to come? Apart from Him, who in the world is loving, powerful, and truthful? He has to accomplish His work and He is the only priest that we have hence we are witnesses to His glory. AND ALL THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN HIM HAVE RECEIVED SALVATION.SPIRITUAL CHORUS:HE HAS COME IN A HIDDEN WAY BUT THE WORLD IS STILL SEARCHING FOR HIM.WE OWE HIM A DUTY

After Christ's resurrection, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went with spices to His grave. Unknown to them, they saw someone who, they thought, was the gardener; but this was Our Lord Jesus Christ whom they went to seek. They asked Him for the corpse of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In fact, Mary Magdalene did not recognize Him as Jesus Christ. He later asked them to go and inform His disciples that He had risen. Surprisingly, before Mary could get to where His disciples were staying, He had already revealed Himself to them. He appeared before the disciples and said, "Let peace be with you." THEREFORE YOU SHOULD REALIZE THAT HE IS THE COMFORTER AS WELL AS THE REDEEMER. EVERYTHING COMES FROM HIM AND NOTHING, NOT EVEN

MAN, CAN WITHSTAND HIM. If you want to know more about Him search the scriptures and read about all that happened with the disciples, Mary Magdalene and others. So you should learn your lesson from those events. HENCEFORTH YOU SHOULD NOT CONTINUE TO SEARCH FOR HIM IN ANY OTHER WAY, FOR HE IS

EVERYWHERE. Even as you are sitting down there, He is the person sitting there with you. Even if it is a little child that you come across, He is the one that you have seen. If you see a toy standing before you, He is the person standing. He is the leaves, the birds you are seeing. Do not share the same view with the people of the world who say that Our Lord Jesus Christ is dead and buried simply because they have not seen Him. It is because they cannot see Him that prompted Him to advise that they should not search for the living among the dead. Do you not understand why He said to them, Why do you search for the living among the dead? That He is not here but you should go to Galilee, (Matt 28:8-10/Luke 24:5-6), for there you would see Him. Since then, when did He die? Who saw His corpse if really He is dead? Have you now seen how His ways elude you? So you should not doubt Him any longer for He did promise that He shall not leave you as orphans but He shall live with you for eternity.Therefore, He will neither taste of death nor sickness. He does not lack and He is without blemish. There is no sin in Him, no cunningness or craftiness in him; nothing like sacrifice, but He lives forever. So you should be proud of Him. Even before the whole world, stamp your feet on the ground and proclaim the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Whatever pronouncement you make He is ready to accomplish it for you. Recall when He fed

thousands with only five loaves and two fishes. This shows that there is nothing He cannot do. Your problem is that you are skeptical about whether He is dead or not, and whether He is coming back again. Remember what Christ said in John 14:12. He declared to us that when the Comforter shall come, He shall reveal unto us everything, and at the same time lead us to the accurate knowledge of truth. So this is our own key. We owe a duty of revealing Him to the world.SPIRITUAL CHORUS: I HAVE COME BY MYSELF, SENDING NO ONE AND I WILL REVEAL MYSELF TO THE WORLD. I HAVE COME NOT TO DIE AGAIN AS THOUGHT BY THE WORLD. THEREFORE YOU SHOULD SING AND REJOICE FOR I, THE KING, HAVE ASSUMED MY GLORY.……..

BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER, AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSE BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR Excerpt from the gospel: IN SEARCH OF CHRIST

THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL

1A NEW ERAFirst Bible Lesson: Hebrews 8:9-12

“Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.”

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.”

Golden Text Revelation: 11:15 “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.”

AN END TO SINS Beloved, the above texts form the theme of the opening sermon for THE 1994 AUGUST PENTECOSTAL ASSEMBLY. The problem with you is that even after you might have been told that the things as taught to you in this kingdom are universal and indeed the veritable truth, you have bluntly refused to spread these messages to the entire humanity. A LOT OF THE PEOPLE ARE OF THE BELIEF THAT THIS KINGDOM IS MEANT FOR NIGERIANS AND THE AFRICANS ALONE. IT IS NOT TRUE. THIS IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND INDEED A UNIVERSAL KINGDOM. THIS KINGDOM, YOU SHOULD NOTE, IS NOT MADE UP OF MAN ONLY, RATHER IT IS MADE UP OF ALL THE CREATIONS OF GOD, BOTH ANIMATE AND INANIMATE. THIS KINGDOM HERE ESTABLISHED IS IN CONFIRMATION WITH THE WORDS OF GOD THAT "THE KINGDOMS OF THIS WORLD ARE BECOME-THE KINGDOMS OF OUR LORD, AND OF HIS CHRIST; AND HE SHALL REIGN FOR EVER AND EVER." (Revelation 11:15).

Good enough, we are STARTING THE PENTECOSTAL SESSION WITH THE FATHER, and the Father means love. And where love abounds, everything is provided in

abundance. In this kingdom, everything is provided free for all.

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 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 KINGDOM 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. 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. 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 love, must glaringly be seen in everything you do. Refer to the First Bible Lesson.

First Bible Lesson: Hebrews 8:9-12

“Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.”AN ERA OF LOVEHAVE YOU NOT SEEN GOD'S PROMISES COMING TO PASS IN OUR TIME? OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST HAD FINISHED HIS ASSIGNMENT OF RECONCILING MAN TO GOD. AND NOW THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS COME AND INSTALLED FREEDOM; AND FORGIVENESS FOR MANKIND, IS NOW THE ORDER OF THE DAY. No more are your sins remembered. You are no more living in fear, war, rancor, hatred, violence, affliction and hardship of any form. Joy and peace has taken over all miseries encountered by man. THIS IS NO MORE TIME WHEN ANGELS USED TO MEDIATE BETWEEN GOD AND MAN. GOD NOW SPEAKS TO US DIRECTLY WITHOUT THE SERVICE OF AN ANGEL. It is rather awful and heart-breaking to see that man attributes the glory of the things done by God to themselves. When God heals, man would charge a fee for it, claiming he is the one that did the healing. In fact, man charges fees for anything God passes through him to

do, namely: prayers, preaching, rendering of songs etc. This is not supposed to be the case.

You are expected to change from your past life to a new one, backed by righteousness. Give love to all and sundry. Let oneness be seen to be practiced by you at all times. You should in fact be seen as new creatures. When this is done, the people of the world will not fail to praise God. One of our brothers had the need to claim his child who was staying in the northern part of Nigeria. He was advised that before he could claim the child, he would have to take a legal action. But the brother told his advisers that his faith forbids him from taking any legal action. He told the adviser that he would claim his child even without taking a legal action. As the Father would normally do His things, the brother claimed his child with ease. This particular action by the brother is highly commendable. That is exactly what is required of all the children of this kingdom.

You have to shun and abstain from evil, knowing fully well the aftermath of being evil. The people of this world have succeeded in constituting themselves into secret societies in the name of churches. This accounts for the reason why they discriminate, hate and give concessional treatment to only their members. Except you are a member in any of the churches, you cannot be fed, no matter how hungry you may be. Except you are a staunch member, you cannot share in their meetings. If they claim to be worshipping God, where in the scripture is it provided that one should love those that share the same beliefs with one? Has this not greatly contradicted the teachings of Christian universal love and oneness? I have brought to you the true teachings of the kingdom of God; and the same love as preached in this kingdom

have I practiced; and I want you to equally I practice it as I do. Except you practice this love just as I have taught you in this kingdom, people will not know that this is the kingdom of God. And you will bear the outcome of their ignorance. You have no reason whatsoever not to practice love.

AFTER ALL, IT IS ONLY HERE IN THIS KINGDOM THAT PEOPLE ARE FREE TO ENJOY THE LEADERSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO IS THE ONE DOING EVERYTHING FOR US. HE IS THE SOLE PROVIDER OF THE NEEDS OF MANKIND. HE IS THE ONLY TEACHER AND DOER OF EVERYTHING. YOU ARE THEREFORE WRONG TO ARROGATE THE GLORY OF ANYTHING DONE TO YOURSELF. THIS ACCOUNTS FOR THE REASON WHY MANKIND FACES MANY PROBLEMS TODAY. THIS IS NO MORE THE TIME FOR YOU TO BE TAUGHT BY ANY MAN.

IT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT. HE IT IS TO TEACH AND LEAD US ALL TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH. HE HAS PROMISED THAT HE WILL NO MORE REMEMBER OUR SINS AND INIQUITIES. THIS HE HAS KEPT. WHY THEN DO YOU IMPUTE SINS TO OTHERS, HATE, QUARREL, CONDEMN AND DISCRIMINATE AMONG OTHER SINS? IF YOU HAVE DONE ALL THESE THINGS, OR EVEN ONE OF IT, NOTE THAT YOU ARE NOT PRACTICING LOVE; HENCE YOU ARE NOT A TRUE BROTHERHOOD.

IT SERVES YOU NO USEFUL PURPOSE COMING IN HERE TO SCRAMBLE FOR POSITION OR CARVE OUT EMPIRE FOR YOURSELF. THIS IS A KINGDOM WHERE EQUALITY IS THE RULE; AND SAME IS THE WILL OF GOD FOR ALL THE HEIRS AND HEIRESSES OF THIS KINGDOM.

SUBMIT YOURSELF THEREFORE TO THE LEADERSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT; AND YOU WILL NOT ERR. EXCEPT YOU SUBJECT YOURSELF TO THE LEADERSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO PLEASE GOD. Let reference be made to the Second Lesson.

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.”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 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 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 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. 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 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 Africa’s 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 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 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 “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 EARTHAre 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 FATHER’S LEADERSHIP.

The Father’s son, Bishop Goring is the Leader’s Representative there; and he has gone into full time service into the Father’s vineyard. He now spreads these good tidings of love on a full time basis. In the United Kingdom, Brotherhood is taking new dimensions to the Father’s 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 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 Lord’s 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 ears hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the whole world. May God bless His Holy words. Amen THANK YOU HOLY FATHERFather’s Sermon. ( Friday morning 050895)
