BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
First Bible Lesson: Matthew 19:28
"And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you. That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
Second Bible Lesson: Revelation 19:16
"And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."
Golden Text: Philippians 2:9-10
"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name; That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven and things in earth, and things under the earth;"
BRETHREN, these lessons read to you will explain what revelations we have to make to you. The world does not know the meaning of Christ and Jesus. Even the members of Brotherhood do not know the meaning of Christ. Most churches are expecting him to be born in their midst, to be one of their Bishops or Popes or Priests. Who rules now, Churches or Government? We are witnesses that the authority and the ruler of the town is the Government. When a new denomination is to be established in any town, the chief or Government is consulted for permission to establish.
Men Of God Are Not Honoured
The ecclesiastical men are not recognized nor honoured but rather the Anti-Christs, called kings, are feared, honoured and worshipped. Only the kings and queens of the world have the royal prerogative over others, even the millionaires. The king is greater than his other subjects. The question is this - Are these kings known by the angels, spirits and the celestial bodies? If they are not recognized they are fake kings because God did not give them the status they usurp. The only King is Christ, and He is the one kept by God.
People wonder why Jesus Christ chose to suffer on earth and even be crucified as a Sacrificial Lamb. The answer is that he wanted the Kingship from God which is everlasting Jesus. Christ is the King, Christ is the Hebrew name meaning the anointed King of the visible and the invisible world.
You can be the Son of God, and not a King. You can be a king of the moon or sun but not of the whole universe. The (144,000) one hundred forty four thousand followers of Christ are Kings who must rule under him. (Rev 14:3-4) For he is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Jesus was a common Hebrew name and Christ means King; his name is, therefore, Jesus the King.
Jesus Christ, Son of God, means a repetition like saying Jehovah God which means nothing more than God of Gods. The Efiks call a King, Obong. In the Hebrew language it is Christ, and all languages have their own name for King.
Christ The King Rules Everything
This particular King is not elected by man but by God Himself. This King must rule the whole world of terrestrial and celestial bodies, visible and invisible. He is not coming as a Pope or Bishop but as a King to rule the whole world. Anyone therefore who believes that Christ is the King is saved. The earthly Kings cannot rule the flesh and the Spirit. There is no other King but Jesus Christ. God has not ordained any other King but Jesus Christ. God has not ordained any other one to be King and that was why he said, "I have not received my glory from man!" (John 5:41)
The earthly kings appointed by men are the causes of the tribulations, sorrows, hatred and envy, wars and covetousness which have filled the world today. All these kings are Anti-christs perverting the cause of nature for their own interest.
Now is the appointed time for the Son of man to reign in the world. If people were to believe that Jesus Christ is King of the world they could have obeyed him and could have been happy about it. No one will be cheated and oppressed in his Kingdom.
Where will you be if you reject him as your King? Romans 10:9 says, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
The kings of the earth are not happy to hear that there is another King. They don't mind about the Popes and Bishops; for they know those are still under them.
Why Herod Massacred The Babies
If the three wise men had asked Herod of a Bishop or Pope born to preach to the Jews, he wouldn't have ordered the massacre of babies but to hear that a king had been born to rule the Jews was an unpardonable offence. It was treason of the highest order. (Matt 2:1-2) The Apostles were killed because they preached that Jesus was King. James was killed because he preached that Jesus Christ was king and no other. Anyone can be called Jesus for it is a common name but Christ is king, Jesus Christ is King.
Jesus Christ has come to take the kingship reserved for Him from the beginning of the world. He has come to select His followers who will reign with Him forever and ever. The Moslems and the Hindus do not know the meaning of Christ, and so cannot give Him the respect and honour due unto Him. People who know Him forsake sins so as to be with Him and to reign with Him.
First Bible Lesson: Matthew 19:28
"And Jesus said unto them, verily I say unto you, that ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
Brethren you can see why no earthly kingdom can stand. God's kingdom is at hand and so no other kingdom will stand. All churches, kingdoms, kings and juju priests are under a king. The earthly king receives the honour of men; and even the holy communion is served in his room. The secret society members honour their head or leader. What then do you think of Christ?
He is coming to rule the world and to reign forever with his selected ones. The one hundred and forty four thousand members will rule with him in his kingdom. There will be confusion and deaths in the world, so accept Christ as the King.
The Name That Is So Powerful
Which king's name is powerful enough to raise the dead, heal the sick and drive away evil spirits? In whose name can Lucifer and his evil angels tremble? You are not a king then if you can't rule yourself and the world of man and spirit.
When we pray, "Thy Kingdom come," it means Christ should reign. (Matt 6:10) The children of Israel asked for a King because they knew they had no king. The earthly king is tormented by illness, ants, beasts, spirits and angels. He is powerless and helpless. He cannot control the wind, the sea or the ocean. This is true because he is a self-made king.
Anyone who regards an earthly king as Christ is as stupid as the king he worships. Christ rules at will and rules forever. He is not dictated to and not dethroned at will. He came as a slave at his first advent but in his second advent he comes as a king.
The Earthly Kingdom Will Be Smashed
Every man will see the glory of God, every ear will hear him and every tongue will confess Him as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He will arrange all things in order and will rule over all. When Christ appears, all earthly kings will be smashed and He will rule with His chosen ones. Expect him soon.
Second Bible Lesson: Revelation 19:16
"And he hath on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS."
Brethren, you can now see that His coming is with majesty and power to rule in His dominion which has no beginning and no end. Who are you to disobey Him and not do His will? There is no other government but his own.
The sun, moon and stars will not shine without His permission. All the wrong things done will be righted. The Son of Man is coming to reign as was ordained for Him. He will elect His officers, establish new churches and His government. New people will be created who will be stainless and His name will be worshipped. At His name every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess Him as King of kings and Lord of Lords. (Philippians 2:10-11)
Adam was first created to rule everything. (Ge 1:28). An angel will not rule and a spirit will not rule. Man must rule. Christ must rule and all things must obey Him. Death and Hades must obey Him. Let us now use the power He has given us to work for Him. Serve Him so as to be elected by Him.
Soon His Influence Will Be Felt Everywhere
The King of kings, the Lord of lords is on earth but has not yet been revealed. If you want to reign with Him, make yourself clean. Christ's election does not need money, position or birth or knowledge but holiness. Tell the kings of the earth to humble themselves for the King of kings is coming. Tell those living in other planets, the beasts of the field and the birds of the air to be ready to receive Him. Tell the angels and the spirits to humble themselves for the King is coming.
Very soon His influence will be felt in heaven and on earth and all things will tremble at His coming. All creation will seek for shelter; for the King is coming. Behold all things will be made new. Churches, schools and universities will have a new start. Governments built on fraud, greed and cheating will be pulled down. Houses built with corrupt money and government on blood will be pulled down to pieces and a new start made.
A family built on fornication and blood will be pulled down. All satanic parents and children will be destroyed. A new King cometh with a new law. A new King has been born into the world but the world does not know.
Golden Text: Philippians 2:9-10
"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him and given Him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things on earth, and things under the earth."
He Is The King Of Kings
What name is greater than the name of Jesus Christ? You all are christs, meaning kings. But Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Those who are playing the fool in the world should be serious, for the King is coming to inspect their work and will not spare.
The name governs all things created by God, and his name is exalted above all names. Death bows to Him. He is the flesh and the spirit. There is no other way of salvation except through the Lord Jesus Christ. Why do you go back to the world when the Lord is going to destroy it? His scepter is love, sympathy, humility, patience and goodness. Any disobedient child will be cut off from the earth. Where will you make your appeal when He is the Judge? Everything created is in fear of Him. Let us therefore be prepared to receive Him with joy and serve Him equitably.
There is no way of escape. He rules all the earth, heaven and Hades. Whether His name is James or Okon, the one ordained by God will rule everything, and so all must obey Him.
Those who have ears to hear let them hear. May the Lord bless the preaching of His Holy Word. Amen.
