THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS COME TO CHANGE, RECREATE, LEAD AND RULE THE WORLD

First Bible Lesson: Luke 9:55-56

"But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village."

Second Bible Lesson: John 14:26

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you."

Golden Text: John 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."

I want everyone to remain in complete silence. I also want everyone to open his mouth and sing this chorus. I want everyone to focus his attention on me. Do not look at any other thing or direction. The song is, "He has come, He has come, He has come to rule the world. He has come to save the world. He has come to judge the world. He has come to lead the world."

Olumba Olumba Obu, The Comforter, Being God Incarnate, Needs Not Be Taught By Any Person

Brethren, what had been mentioned in the song are the qualities of the Holy Spirit. I do not intend to be tedious unto you but I want to tell you that all the eloquent testimonies borne by our Lord Jesus Christ about this time have all come to fulfillment. It is a truism that the man you call Olumba Olumba Obu has never attended any Bible College or Seminary, neither has he attended any Church, nor has he ever read the Bible, nor has he been taught by any human being.

Every time I have to give testimony about this kingdom of God. It is not clear to you that this glory does not come from any human being. But this is the promise which God had made through the mouth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Have you not heard what he has said, "That the Comforter, even the Spirit of truth, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will bring to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you." Look around; have you seen anything different?

The Word Of God Will Not Pass Away Until All Are Fulfilled

You, who were not in the world, during the advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, you have to revise and recapitulate the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ, and then compare with what you find in the world today, whether there is anything different. That is why it is said, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but the word of God will not pass away, until all be fulfilled." (Matt 5:18,24:35/Mark 13:31).

The Teaching of Brotherhood Is The Revisitation and Recapitulation Of The Teaching Of The Christ

People refer to the teaching of Brotherhood as a new doctrine. How is it a new teaching? Brotherhood teaches you love; teaches you the truth; teaches you mercy; teaches you patience; teaches you humility, teaches you forgiving one another; teaches you meekness and temperance; teaches you long suffering and all good virtues. Because our Lord Jesus Christ himself is love; He is the truth; He is mercy; He is peace; He is humility; He is meekness and temperance; He is long suffering; He is righteousness; He is hope; He is joy; and He is everything to every man. The chorus you have heard tells you that the Holy Spirit has come to save the whole world. He has also come to teach the whole world the wisdom of the truth. He has come to protect all the inhabitants of the world. He has come to rule the whole world. He has come to save all the inhabitants of the world. He has come to recreate, and rebuild us and make us anew. He has come to love every human being. He has brought perfect peace, which will never depart from you. He has come to judge every human being. His judgement is true because he himself is the truth. With the truth He judges. He has not come to kill us; He has not come to punish us; but He has come to save us; to change and recreate us. He has brought peace and love unto us.

The Holy Spirit Is Our Guardian

He guards and protects us while we are asleep. He guards and protects us while we are walking along the street. In all ways whatever, He continues to guard and protect us. He gives us clothes. He provides us with food. He teaches us those things we did not know. He reminds us of those things we have forgotten. The Holy Spirit has in effect taught us everything.

The Holy Spirit has come to teach us everything and bring to our remembrance whatsoever our Lord Jesus Christ had commanded, so that you may walk in His footsteps.

The Christ Came To Preserve Men's Lives

And so brethren, you have to look around, whether you have not seen all those things being fulfilled. As we have been told in our first lesson, that the Son of man has not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. When the disciples asked, "Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?" (Luke 9:54). Our Lord Jesus Christ replied, "Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of." His spirit is the image and likeness of God; for God is love, the truth, meekness and temperance, humility, patience, long suffering, self-control, mercy, everlasting life and peace.

Flesh and blood cannot do this work. It is only the spirit which can do it. That is why I have been telling you that you should not look at the body. The spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ was the spirit of love. That is why I say that he was God. For His spirit was love, His spirit was the truth, peace, grace, everlasting life, and all other virtues.

John The Baptist Came In The Power And Spirit Of Elijah (Luke 1:17).

All that you do are based on the type of spirit with which you come. Elijah came first; and when John the Baptist came, people sought to know him in the flesh. But John came in the spirit and the power of Elijah. Our Lord Jesus Christ came in the spirit of God. He was (and is) God. He came to save the whole world from death; and from tribulation and from affliction. That is why he said, "I did not come to judge the world, but to save it." (John 12:47)

That is why our Lord Jesus Christ also said, "The Son of man did not come to be ministered unto but to minister and to give His life a ransom for many." (Matt 20:28). It was not our Lord Jesus Christ himself, the body that people saw, which did those works. But the spirit of God in him, known by no one, was what did everything. That is why He said, "Of myself I can do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgement is true. For I seek not my own will but the will of him that sent me." (John 5:30).

The Concept Of Equality

It was said that our Lord Jesus Christ went to India to study different disciplines. He went nowhere but it was the spirit in Him which taught Him everything, and showed Him everything. When He went to India, He only went to teach the people. It was in India that He taught them about the concept of equality; that everyone should be equal. It was then that they planned to kill him for teaching them the concept of equality.

If you examine carefully, you will discover that the teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ did not come from any human being but direct from God. He taught that man should not resist an evildoer (Mt 5:39); and "if any person demands that he should walk a mile with him, walk with him two miles (Mt 5:41); and if a man will sue him at the law court to take away his coat, let him have his cloak also (Mt 5:40). Love your enemies and bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you (Mt 5:44); "that you may be the children of your Father who is in heaven: for He makes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you only love those who love you, what will be your reward?" (Matt 5:45-46). Have you seen any person who practices the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ? Have you also found a person teaching others that same lesson? But he had said, "When He, even the Spirit of truth will come, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance whatsoever He had said unto you."

The Holy Spirit Has Shown Man Everything

I am always sympathetic with you; and I also laugh you to scorn when you say that Brotherhood is not found in the Bible. What testimony did our Lord Jesus Christ bear. Our Lord Jesus Christ had borne eloquent testimony about this Kingdom of God. All the testimonies of our Lord Jesus Christ were about the happenings now invariably the work of the Holy Spirit. He said, "Whoever blasphemes against the Son of man shall be forgiven but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven, in this generation and in the generation to come." (Matt 12:32). He also said, "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." (John 16:7). He concluded by saying, "When He, even the Spirit of truth will come, He will lead you to the accurate wisdom of the 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." (John 16:13).

The Sermons Preached In Brotherhood Are The Words Of God

You are witnesses to the fact that all the teachings imparted to you do not come from any human being, nor from the wisdom of the world. They are not from an angel but simply the words of God. You have attended the University, attended Seminary; you have gone to European Countries, and other places, have you ever heard this type of teaching imparted to you? Why is it so? It is because that Spirit spoken of by our Lord Jesus Christ is the one operating here.

Many people often say that they have twenty, ten or forty certificates. I have no certificate and have never attended any school. Many others boast that they can preach. I cannot preach but it is the Comforter, even the Spirit of truth, who preaches, and teaches you everything. Because He is the spirit which will never depart from this world. He has brought peace to the whole world, to both heaven and earth. He has not come to destroy any man but to save your souls to save those who are weak and heavy laden (Mt 11:28), those who are sick, and afflicted, those who are sorrowful, those having different problems; the outcast and the rejected.

The Holy Spirit has never been exasperated. He has never quarrelled with any person. He does not tell lies. He does not deceive any person. He does not kill or destroy any person. He cannot disgrace any person. He does not steal. He does not commit fornication. He does not hate any person. When people erroneously complain that the Holy Spirit is punishing them, I have to tell them to keep quiet, because they do not understand what they are saying.

The Christ Has A Virtuous Spirit

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Heb 13:8). Do you remember when He said, "My peace give I unto you. I have brought peace into the world" (John 14:27). He is the Spirit of peace. He is the Spirit of power. He is the Spirit of mercy. He is the Spirit of truth. He is the Spirit of patience. He is the spirit of humility. He is the spirit of self-control. He is the spirit of joy. He is the spirit of everlasting life. He is the spirit of good health. He is the spirit of beauty. He is sinless.

The Holy Spirit Is A Perfect Being

Whoever comes to Brotherhood should realise that our Lord Jesus Christ does not seek for any warfare. He has come to redeem you. He has come to comfort you. He has come to give peace unto you. When you are sad, he will console you. When you are confused, he will advise you. He has come to guard and protect you. He has come to wipe away your tears. He has come to change you. He has come to cleanse you of all sins, so that you may be like him.

Do you not realise His love for us? Do you not know how He is truthful? Do you not see how He has healed you of your sickness? There has never been any point in time when the Holy Spirit came to destroy the world. The Holy Spirit has never told lies. The Holy Spirit has never deceived any person. The Holy Spirit has never quarreled with any person. The point is that when you depart from Him, you are beset with problems.

When Adam and Eve were with the Holy Spirit in the Garden of Eden, they were given instructions to eat of all the fruits of the trees in the garden except the fruit of the tree in the midst of the garden. While they had not eaten of the forbidden fruit, they were not sick, they were not poor, they were not hungry, there was no heat of the sun, nor were they drenched by the rain. Man and beasts lived together. Their trouble started right from the day they ate of the forbidden fruit, the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They were driven out of the Garden of Eden.

I want to tell you that the Holy Spirit is the Only One. I do not want to overload you. Let our first lesson be read.

First Bible Lesson: Luke 9:55-56

"But He turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of Spirit ye are of.

For the Son of Man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village."

Brethren, have you heard that? When Our Lord Jesus Christ wanted to go to Jerusalem, He passed through one of the Samaritan villages. When He was resisted by the people, the disciples asked, "Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?" (Luke 9:54). You all know who Elijah was. That is why he told them, "Ye know not the manner of spirit I am of. For the Son of man is not coming to destroy men's lives, but to save them."

Without the Holy Spirit There Is No Virtue

Our mothers cannot save us. Our fathers cannot save us. Our husbands cannot save us nor can our wives save us, we can only be saved by the Holy Spirit. Wherever the Holy Spirit is not found, neither peace can be found there, nor love nor mercy nor grace nor truth. There is no good thing which can be found at such a place.

That is why our Lord Jesus Christ said, "Except ye be born of water and spirit" which means except you have the Holy Spirit, you cannot do any good thing. The flesh has no love. The flesh has no patience. The flesh has no peace, neither does it seek for peace. The flesh does not tell the truth. It has no power. That is why our Lord Jesus Christ told his disciples, "If ye love me, keep my commandments, and I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever. 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." (John 14:15-17).

The Holy Spirit Is The Spirit of Truth

Whoever has the Holy Spirit cannot commit any sin. The Holy Spirit will never tell lies. He is the Spirit of truth. He is and will continue to be peace and the Prince of Peace ad infinitum. He will continue to live forever. He has neither the origin of days nor the end of life. He is the beginning and the end. He has no Deputy nor any opponent. He does not hate any person nor discriminate. He does not require anything from any man. He is not in lack of anything. He does not impute sins on any person. The Holy Spirit has only come to save us, and to be merciful unto us, and to wipe away all tears from our eyes. Of what use is money to the Holy Spirit? Of what use are houses to the Holy Spirit? Of what use are beautiful women to the Holy Spirit? Of what use are clothes to the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit has only come to save us, to redeem us, and to wipe away all tears from our eyes.

I always feel pity for people who say, "If God answers my request, I will give him twenty naira." I simply laugh because they have not yet understood themselves. The Holy Spirit does not want any house. He has come to save you and to save me. He has also come to regenerate us. He has come to guard and protect us. He has come to recreate us, redeem us, and lead us in the path of righteousness.

Only The Lamb Who Was Slain Could Open The Book

You have heard that when the angel took up that book, and then asked John, "Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof." (Rev 5:2). And no man in heaven nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. John wept because no man was found worthy to open and read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders said unto John, "Weep not: behold the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book and to loose the seven seals thereof; for worthy is the Lamb that was slain and has redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue and people, and nation." (Rev 5:3-9).

Where The Spirit Is There Is Liberty (2 Cor 3:17)

The Holy Spirit has not come to be ministered to but to minister to us; to make us live in peace and also have everlasting life. That is why our Lord Jesus Christ said, "...For if I go away I will send him to you. When the Comforter, even the Spirit of truth will come, He shall teach you all things and bring unto your remembrance whatsoever I have commanded you." Whoever does not have the Holy Spirit knows nothing and is unable to do anything.

Wherever you find people quarrelling amongst themselves, know that the Holy Spirit is not there. Wherever there is division and segregation, know that the Holy Spirit is not there. Where there are thieves; the Holy Spirit is not there. It is said, "God is a Spirit and where the Spirit of God is, there is liberty." (2 Cor 3:17).

The Holy Spirit does not require any praises. What song can you sing for the Holy Spirit? He has only come to save us, and to teach us His ways, and what we are to do in order to live forever.

It Is Because Of Man's Frailties That The Holy Spirit Has Come

When a teacher teaches a student any lesson and the student is unable to understand, he will be given corporal punishment. Such a thing cannot take place in this Kingdom of God because no sin is in the Kingdom. That is why every person must forsake sin. All of you who come before me, and those outside are witnesses to the fact that I have nothing to do with anything sinful. I do not see what is sinful, nor associate myself with sins. Our Lord Jesus Christ saw the weakness and frailties of human beings. That is why he said, "The Comforter which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father will send in my name will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance whatsoever I have taught you." If all of you who come to Brotherhood were to receive and practise the teachings imparted to you, by now you would have had no problems.

The Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost Bear Witness in Heaven*

Do not say again, when you have headache, that it has been caused by the Holy Spirit. Do not ever say, when you are sick, that it is because the Holy Spirit has sent you and you had refused to go, that is why you have been sick. Do not make any such statement.

It is said, "We are the children of God but the whole world lieth in wickedness." (1 John 5:19). The teachings I impart to you bring peace to you. That is why it is said that He is the Spirit of peace, Spirit of truth, Spirit of good health, Spirit of hope, Spirit of faith, Spirit of joy, Spirit of mercy, Spirit of everlasting life. That is why it is also said that three of them bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost. The three of them are one. (1 John 5:7).*

This is the end of time. The Holy Spirit has come as the controller of everything. He has come as the Father of love. He is the Father of truth. He is the Father of mercy. He is the Father of humility. He is the Father of grace. He is the Father of life. He is the Father of power. He is the Father of everlasting life.

Hail! The Reign of the Holy Spirit

Our Lord Jesus Christ had said that this generation will not pass away until all His words are fulfilled (Mt 24:34). Can you not realise that the Holy Spirit is here on earth working? If He had not come, the world would have perished. Because He is everything. Whatever is not good, be it water or something solid He will change into His form or image.

We must preach the Holy Spirit to the entire world. Whether they believe or not, we are duty-bound to preach. We must also thank the Father for the Holy Spirit because, without the Holy Spirit, the world would have perished.

The Holy Spirit guards and protects us in our sleep, while travelling, and teaches us those things we do not know. He teaches us everything; teaches the animal in the bush, birds in the air and fishes in water. The Holy Spirit is not like the Universities where you pay thousands of money to acquire knowledge. He teaches us free of charge because he has come to save us free of charge. He has come to give us everything free of charge. You have only to surrender yourself to Him, and listen to Him.

Listen to the Still Small Voice

That is a man who has neither attended the University, nor gone to any church, nor attended any prayer house, nor gone to any place in the world, nor has he initiated into any society, nor has he had any dealings with any person in the world. But all the works we see in the world are done by him.

The Holy Spirit had instructed me in my infancy, not to listen to any person, because every person in the world is a liar. He said that I should only listen to him because he alone has the wisdom. All the things done in Brotherhood are done by him. If Brotherhood were to come from man, from where is that man? Can you find this type of glory in European Countries? Can you find this type of glory in India or in America, or in Russia or in Africa, or in all other places? No matter where you go to, you can never find similar things as in Brotherhood. Brotherhood has puzzled the whole world. When you go to America, you are looked at with amazement. When you go to India, you are looked at with surprise. Any place you may go to, you are being looked at with amazement. It is the Holy Spirit which is doing everything.

The Holy Spirit Is All And In All

At your house, when children disobey their parents they are beaten up. Exactly the same thing happens between a wife and a husband; between brothers and sisters. But, here in Brotherhood, have you ever been beaten, has anyone become angry with you; has any person frowned or become fastidious? In the world, before anything is done for you, you have to pay for it. But here in Brotherhood everything is done free of charge for you. No money is got from you. What will the Holy Spirit use your money for? He is peace. He is life. He is money. He is everything. He comes with love, peace, life and every other thing.

Some of you complain that the Holy Spirit is angry with you. What have you done so that he should be angry with you? When you say that the Holy Spirit has been angry with a person due to his sin, I have to ask, what can he not do? If anything is bad, He will change it. He has come to reform and rebuild us.

Without Faith No Person Can Please The Lord

You have heard that our Lord Jesus Christ did not do great works in his home town. Why was that so? It was because of their unbelief. You have also heard that Paul, during his missionary journey, if he went to a place where the name of God was blasphemed, he would depart from that place after preaching. (Acts 13:46-51) You have also heard that man is saved by faith. Any person who has no faith cannot be saved. But who has faith amongst you? Is there anyone who has not blasphemed, even now, against the Holy Spirit? You ask him questions and smite him by the cheeks.

Despite the way human beings treat the Holy Spirit, yet has He no problems. If you have any problems, you have to search yourself. The Holy Spirit has come with love and peace, with mercy and grace. What is man? He had said, "I will wipe away all tears from their eyes." (Rev 21:4). The Holy Spirit has come to wipe away tears from your eyes and also take away death from you, in spite of the blasphemous words against him, in spite of the abuses, in spite of our doubts, in spite of the fact that we continue to tell lies, and steal, and indulge in the preparation of concoction and charms. More especially to you who are members, you continue to fight, thereby compelling those outside to remark, in spite of the teaching of that man, the members continue to quarrel and fight.

The Holy Spirit Is Tolerance

Our Lord Jesus Christ preached in the two cities of Bethsaida and Chorazin. When he went back to see whether they had repented, he found that they had not repented and so he cursed and upbraided them. (Matt 11:21). But you have been in Brotherhood for twenty years. Of what use is your twenty years stay in Brotherhood? You continue to fight, tell lies, fornicate, steal. Because the Holy Spirit is never exasperated, He has never beaten you up, He has never resisted nor reacted to your behaviour. Until eternity, the Holy Spirit has nothing to do with sins.

The Holy Spirit is holy. Everything about him is holy. Whatever any person says the Holy Spirit has no problems. Because he has come to save both the small and big; both good and evil men; to change everyone; only to love us; to guard and protect our lives; and also to remind us of all that our Lord Jesus Christ taught; and to teach us how we should live.

If each and every one of us were to listen to the prompting of the Holy Spirit, none of us would have any problems. We would no longer quarrel and fight, be angry, and commit any act of sin. If we were to count His blessings upon each and every one of us and His love for us and imputing no sin on us, we would have known exactly what to do.

The Holy Spirit Is Not Carnally Minded

Many visioners tell you that the Holy Spirit requires a soutane from you. What is the Holy Spirit going to use a soutane for? When you tell a person that the Holy Spirit has directed that you should build a house for him, realise that it is not the Holy Spirit. The person is only a liar. When you tell a person that the Holy Spirit has directed that two of you should get married. God forbid! That can never be said by the Holy Spirit. If you want to marry, go and marry. Do not lie that you have been directed by the Holy Spirit. If you beat up your child and then give as an excuse that it is the Holy Spirit which has directed you to do so, you should realise that the Holy Spirit does not beat up any person. The Holy Spirit only changes a person. His duty is to love everyone.

The Holy Spirit has come with love to save you. He has come with patience to save you. He has come with truth, mercy, meekness, and temperance, humility and peace, to save you.

By Prayer and Supplication Make Your Request Known To God

If you go to a person to beg, and then tell him that the Holy Spirit has directed you to beg from him, realise that you have not been sent by the Holy Spirit. Does the Holy Spirit not teach that you should be satisfied in your position? Does he not teach you that there is nothing in the world, and therefore you should not love the world and the things in the world? Does he not teach you, "believe not in any man, only believe in the Father, and in him also"? He does not teach that you should go to a person for prayers. He teaches that you should make your requests known to Him by prayer and supplications. (Phil 4:6).

Do not tell any person your problems. The Holy Spirit teaches us everything but because of your lust for the things of the world, you are carried away.

It is for your sake that people blaspheme against the name of God. Blasphemy is no disturbance to the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit Himself is Holy and has nothing to do with anything sinful. He has come to fulfill his will.

The Holy Spirit Is Everything To Every Man

Whenever you find a person speaking any evil about Brotherhood, simply pass by for He is not referring to Brotherhood. Brotherhood does not take injection nor drugs, it does not indulge in the preparation of concoction and charms; it is not water at Biakpan that does anything. It is only the Holy Spirit which dwells everywhere and does everything.

The Holy Spirit is in water, in water underneath; He is in the land, in the air, in the forest and everywhere. Each and every one of you should go back and ponder over this: whether any human being can do the great works you see in the world today. All sicknesses are healed free of charge by the Holy Spirit. He does not exact any money for what he does but you continue to collect money from sick people. He continues to guard and protect you free of charge, but you continue to get money from people claiming that you are the one protecting them. In spite of all the sins you commit, does the Holy Spirit bother you?

Craftiness Is No Wisdom

Remember Elisha whom God directed to go to Syria to heal Naaman, the leper. When he got there, He told Naaman to go and wash in Jordan seven times. He replied that he had just been out of water. But the servant advised that he should do what the master has bidden him. Naaman then went and dipped himself seven times in the water and was cleansed. Consequent upon his cure, he brought money and presented to Elisha. Elisha said that he needed nothing from him. He did not lust after wealth. This is to show to you the lesson about the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which is the problem of the world. When Elisha and the servant had gone a little away from Naaman, the servant told him that he was going to the market.What did Elisha suspect, as innocent as he was? Elisha permitted him to go. The servant, therefore, went to Naaman and told him that the master had sent him to collect the money from him. Naaman became happy and gave the money to Elisha's servant. When Elisha discovered that the servant had collected the money from Naaman, he became offended and cursed him, and he became leprous. (2 Kings 5:1-27).

The Law of Retributive Justice

Whatever you do, the Holy Spirit will not say anything but do not forget what the Scriptures says, that whatever you sow, the same will you reap. (Gal 6:7). Because he said, "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more." (Heb 8:12). Remember that when Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, if the Father had allowed them to go, there would have been no problem. He cursed the serpent and said, "...upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat." To the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee." God also called Adam and said, "Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake: in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life. (Gen 3:17). In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. (Gen 3:19)." It is this very God who has come back. Our Lord Jesus Christ has come back to save you. Who will be able to save you apart from him?

God Has Now Come To Lead and Rule the World

All the sins committed right from the time of Adam were all blotted out when our Lord Jesus Christ came and shed His precious blood upon the cross. When he said, "It is finished" he had forgiven men of past trespasses. That is why the Holy Spirit has come today.

That is why the Trinity God, the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost is one. At first he came to create the world. He came the second time to redeem the world. Finally He came to gather together all the children of God, teach them, lead them, save them, and rule over them.

Your problem is that you have become accustomed to old wine. When you are told to forsake tradition, you would resist. But I have to tell you that you will forsake all traditions. The teaching you receive now is the teaching which had been at the beginning, which the world received not. But now, the Holy Spirit has come to teach all men and to lead them to the accurate wisdom of the truth, so that you may no longer die, nor commit sins.

The Unification Of The People Of The World

Who is the black or the white? The Holy Spirit has come to unite all of them together. What is food to man? The Holy Spirit is everything to you. That goes to confirm what our Lord Jesus Christ said when Satan told him, "If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread." But our Lord Jesus Christ replied, "It is written, man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Matt 4:4/Luke 4:4)

You have also heard that food was made for the belly and the belly for food, but God shall destroy both it and them. (1 Cor 6:13). God did not create the body for fornication but for himself; to live in you and to live in every person. (1 Cor 6:18-19) If the Holy Spirit had not come, the whole world would have perished completely.

We should always thank our Lord Jesus Christ, for if he had not come to shed his precious blood, and promise us the Comforter, what do you think would have happened in the world? Brethren I do not want to take you further. The golden text will now be read.

Golden Text: John 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."

Brethren have you heard that? The Holy Spirit has come to teach you everything, and everything is done by the Holy Spirit. Our Lord Jesus Christ had said, "I do not speak anything of my own self." (John 5:30) Everything is spoken by the Father. It is the Holy Spirit who teaches. It is the Holy Spirit who advises.

Lust Leads To Sin And Sin Leads To Death

What brings death unto the people of the world is fornication, falsehood, stealing, murder, sorcery, indulgence in the preparation of concoction, and other evil things of the world. What brings about the sins, is the lust for the things of the world. You rather love material things of the world more than God. Why you continue to commit these sins is that you have neither received nor practised the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ.

That is why Our Lord Jesus Christ said, "Do not think that I will condemn you? Even Moses, whom you hope on, will condemn you." Our Lord Jesus Christ told the Jews who professed to have believed in Moses that if they were to believe in Moses, they would have believed in Him also, because Moses himself bore testimony about Him. (John 5:45-47). If you were to comply with the instructions of Our Lord Jesus Christ, there would have been no problems for any person; for he had taught you not to kill; "do not commit adultery; do not steal; do not have any other God before me; do not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain." That is why it is said that our Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Heb 13:8). He had said, "Do not think that I have come to destroy the law and the prophets. I have come to confirm them. Verily, verily, I say unto you, this generation will not pass away until everything be fulfilled. Whoever breaks the least of these commandments and teaches others to break them, will be called the least in the kingdom of God. But whoever keeps those commandments and teaches others to keep them will be called the greatest in the kingdom of God." (Matt 5:17-19). Today the Holy Spirit has come to teach you, and do not think that I have come to destroy all the teachings and instructions of our Lord Jesus Christ. You have heard what our Lord Jesus Christ had said, "For he shall teach you all things and bring to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you."

Righteousness Is The Only Passport To The Kingdom

The teaching imparted to you is not a new teaching but the teaching which you and the world had rejected. It is now incumbent upon you to practise the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ. That is why he said, "When he, even the Spirit of truth comes, he will lead you to the wisdom of truth for he shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he had heard, that will he speak to you." Search properly what is transpiring today, whether you will find any differences from what our Lord Jesus Christ taught to you. Right from Genesis to the Revelation of John the Divine, what else do you find apart from the word of God? Our Lord Jesus Christ said, "If you do not repent of your sins, you shall perish." He also said, "If your righteousness does not exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will also perish." (Matt 5:20).

What the Church denominations tell you is that once you are able to pay your dues, you will go to heaven. They also tell you that you have a chair, and a number of houses in heaven. When our Lord Jesus Christ was asked, "Show us the kingdom of God," what was his reply? He said, "If I tell you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe when I tell you of heavenly things." (John 3:12).

If someone who has never gone to Lagos comes to tell you stories about Lagos and you listen to such a person, it means you are a fool. The mother of the two sons of Zebedee went to our Lord Jesus Christ and knelt before him. Our Lord Jesus Christ asked her, "Woman, what do you want me to do for you?" The woman replied, "I pray that my two sons should sit with you in your father's kingdom, one on your right hand, and the other on your left." What was the reply of our Lord Jesus Christ? He asked, "Are they able to drink of the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism wherewithal I am baptized?" She replied that they are able. And our Lord Jesus Christ said, "They shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized, but to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father." (Matt 20:23).

God Does Not Know Workers Of Iniquities

But now, people will come to tell you, if you pay your dues, you will go to heaven; and if you fail to pay your dues, you will go to hell. Where have you found such conditions in the Bible? At times you say, let me pray for you, so that your father may be removed from hell to heaven. Where have you found such a passage in the Bible?

Our Lord Jesus Christ had said, "I must work the works of Him who sent me while it is day; the night cometh, when no man can work." (John 9:4). I have already told you that if you do not forsake fornication, stealing, indulgence in the preparation of concoction, hatred, murder, maliciousness, and all vices, you will not enter into the kingdom of God. That is why it is said, "Not all those who call me Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of God, but those who do the will of my Father." (Matt 7:21). Many will say on that day, "Did I not cast out demons in your name; did I not make the blind to see, lame to walk, dumb to speak in your name? But I will say, depart from me, ye workers of iniquity. I have never known you." (Matt 7:23).

Just as our Lord Jesus Christ came to confirm the words of the prophets, so has the Holy Spirit come to confirm the words of our Lord Jesus Christ; that His words are true.

Be Holy So That You Inherit The Blessing

Our Lord Jesus Christ had instructed, "Love ye one another." If you do not love one another, you will have no share in the Kingdom of God. It is not all Abraham's children who are the children of Abraham. It is not all the children of Israel that are Israelites; but the children of promise. As I will tell you now; it is not the white that matters; it is not calling yourself a Brotherhood that matters; what matters is being Brotherhood in spirit. If you are led by the Holy Spirit, you will neither indulge in the preparation of concoction, nor fornicate, nor commit murder, nor commit any sin. For it is said, "Wherefore henceforth know ye no man after the flesh." (2 Cor 5:16). I do not know you in the flesh. I only know you in the spirit. I know that you are indulging in the preparation of concoction, telling lies, committing murder, stealing, fornicating, hating one another, sacrificing to idols, consulting oracles, begrudging one another, you may choose to hide yourself, but one thing is certain and that is, unless you are holy, you cannot enter the kingdom. I know what you are. If you wish to institute any court case against any person, you may do so. If you wish to marry many wives, you may marry. If you wish to look for much money, you may do so. I know the type of spirit in you; I know you. It is said, "You should look for a black goat when it is not yet dark."

The Kingdom Of God Is Love

Our Lord Jesus Christ had borne eloquent testimony when he said, "Howbeit, when he, the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you unto the wisdom of truth." (John 16:13). I have actually led you unto the wisdom of truth. No sinner has a share in this kingdom of God. This is a kingdom of love. A lawyer will not enter; a visioner will not enter; a professor will not enter; an Apostle will not enter; Pastor will not enter; president will not enter; a Governor will not enter; a Chief will not enter into the kingdom. It is only love, truth, mercy, meekness and temperance, righteousness, humility and patience which prevail in the kingdom of God.

The Church denominations say that if you become a member of their Church, you will be saved. I do not say that if you enter Brotherhood you will be saved, because I know that everyone is Brotherhood. Except you are born of water and spirit, you cannot be saved. Why do you call our Lord Jesus Christ, "Lord," but reject his teachings? His teachings are true. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Son of man, Son of God and God Himself. It is that same spirit which created man, who personifies in Our Lord Jesus Christ. It is the same spirit who has come now. This is the end of time. He has come to rule. No other spirit will come.

The Wrath Of God Is Upon The Children Of Disobedience

The Holy Spirit is love, and therefore teaches you the concept of love. He is the truth and therefore teaches you the concept of truth. He is patience. He is humility. He is peace. Here, there is no fighting. There is no quarrelling. There is no anger. All those who commit sin have no share in this kingdom. Their share is the lake of fire. Whatever you sow, same will you reap. If you commit any sin, you will suffer as a sinner. You have heard that the wrath of God has come upon the children of disobedience. And the world is angry about his own judgement. For it is said, "And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great: and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth." (Rev 11:18).

What do you think about yourself? Human beings are empty. It is only Jehovah God and His Christ who now reigns throughout the world. It is he who created the world, heavens and earth and the fullness thereof.

Do not bow down to idols. There is no ghost. There is no mermaid. There is no witchcraft. There is no ghost. There is no human being. It is only the Holy Spirit who reigns. Only listen to him. Do only those things he bids you to do.

Have Faith In The Lord

Do not believe in any human being. Only believe in the Holy Spirit from now henceforth, let your faith be one with him alone. He is in your house. He is here. Make your request known to him. He is ever ready to help you. That is exactly what he told Philip when he asked, "Shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us." Our Lord Jesus Christ replied, "Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me had seen the Father, and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself. But the Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works. (John 14:8-11). When you see me, you see the Father." This is exactly the same thing transpiring now.

Angels Are Militant In Nature

Do not seek after the Holy Spirit in the sky. Do not seek after him in the wind. He is everywhere. Do not go to preach Olumba Olumba Obu. But preach the Holy Spirit. Do not preach about any human being. Preach the Holy Spirit for that is what has eluded many people in the world today. Do not look on me. Only look on the Holy Spirit, because personally, I only look on to the Holy Spirit. He is the only one who does all the works.

The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Truth. Whatever he says is true. There is no argument in whatever he says. And our Lord Jesus Christ had said, "At the end of time the Son of man will send out his angels." (Angels are different group of persons.) They are soldiers. It is they who kill and destroy. But the Holy Angel does not commit any atrocity. He is holy. You have to know that if you do not forsake sins, you cannot go near to the Holy Spirit. You cannot also enter into the kingdom of God. Very shortly you will not be able to enter into 34, Ambo Street. You will only stand outside the gate.

Brethren, this is the time of the Holy Spirit. Go and preach the news of the Holy Spirit to all the inhabitants of the world; whether they choose to believe or not.

To Be Carnally Minded Is Death

It has been said, "When the Comforter, even the Spirit of truth will come...." (John 14:26). Go and declare to the world that he has come. Tell them that the Holy Spirit is love, He is truth, He is mercy, He is humility, He is grace, He is peace, He is righteousness. He is meekness and temperance. He teaches us and what he teaches is the truth.

Do not argue. Do not doubt whatever the Holy Spirit teaches but practise what he has taught you. When you depart from the teachings of the Holy Spirit, then you are overshadowed with darkness. For the Holy Spirit both sees far and near. And he knows what will happen in the end. That is why you are advised to listen to your spirit. If we walk in the Spirit of God, Gal 5:16) we shall not perish. But if we walk according to the promptings of the flesh, we shall perish. (Rom 8:13).

Brethren, I do not intend to be tedious unto you. It is said, "One stroke of the cane is sufficient for the wise." Any person who has ears to hear, let him hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.
