THE GREATEST AMONG MEN IS A SERVANT

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 20:26

"But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you let him be your minister."

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 23:11

"But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant."

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 7:12

"Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets."

Brethren, that is the teaching of Our Lord Jesus Christ. It is not enough to shout "Jesus, Jesus" only. We have to practise His teachings. All those who are taking leadership positions but they do not stand by the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ owe the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. But all those who go by the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ, have both the Father and the Son. This is how we open this assembly of ours. Then we ask, "What are the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ that we should live by, in order to have the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit?"

From Friday, Saturday and till today, I have shown you the nature of His teachings, and I have also told you that His teachings have neither a beginning nor an end, because He said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life, nobody can see the Father unless he passes through me." (John 14:6) Now, who is he that passes through Our Lord Jesus Christ, except the one who abides by His teachings.

Christ is the way, the truth, and the life, can be interpreted that if you practise His teachings, you have the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Right from the beginning of the world, from the time of Adam and Eve, His teachings have always existed. Before the foundation of the world, His teachings, taught to the angels and His other creations have been in existance.

HE TOLD ADAM TO BE ATTENTIVE TO, AND TO TAKE ALL HIS LESSONS FROM HIM ONLY,BECAUSE HE ALONE WOULD TEACH HIM ALL THE THINGS HE REQUIRED TO KNOW. It was due to listening to Lucifer, that he fell, and he was driven out from this Christ's Universal School. This is the reason it is now being re-emphasized that he who assumes leadership position, but does not abide by the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ, has not the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. This is so because when Adam was enjoined by the Father God to eat of all the fruits of the trees in the garden, except the one forbidden tree, if he had obeyed that order, he would have had the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. If he had stuck to Christ's teachings that he should not receive any advice or teaching, or orders from any angel, or man, things would not have been like that with Adam. Adam and Eve failed because they had not the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Since this is the position, who will be the leader, since the blind cannot lead the blind? Brethren, the trouble of the world rests on this and started from there.

CHRIST'S UNIVERSAL SCHOOL OF PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY IN

DIFFERENT STAGES:

It was because He is God of love and of mercy that He started His teachings again, and required Cain and Abel to offer Him sacrifices. Cain was a farmer while Abel was a shepherd. This was His elementary teaching which started again with His creation. Not that He wanted these material things as such, it is only a metaphor for teaching in the universal school. Abel made use of the fattest sheep, and offered it unto God as a sacrifice. This is the elementary school; and Abel in this action for sacrificing unto God the best of his offering, passed the test.

On the other hand Cain said that God wanted nothing but the heart, and he went and made use of dead yam tubers as an offering unto God. Do you now see how this school is? This is the reason I tell you that all these churches in the world belong to Christ. But though all these churches belong to Christ, they are in degrees and stages. Right from learning through juju as you find people practise, they are all parts of this same Christ's Universal School of Love. However, this is not what we want to delve into today, but to examine the advice and teachings which come to us from the mouth of God our Father, which if one obeys, one has the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

YOU WILL SEE ONE CHURCH DRINKING WINE, THE OTHER SMOKING, IT ALL MEANS THE ABILITY TO GROW BEYOND THAT LEVEL HAS NOT YET REACHED THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL IN THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, IN THE RUDIMENTARY TEACHINGS. THEY ARE STILL PART OF THE UNIVERSAL SCHOOL WHICH ADVISES ONE TO GIVE WINE TO THE SICK, THE SAD, THOSE IN MISERY AND THOSE ABOUT TO DIE. If you see where people take medicine or take purgative, it is still part of the same universal school, because if you go to this elementary schools you will see infants using sticks to calculate and they are taught by singing and dancing methods, and they will be engaged in clapping and dancing, and physical objects will be used in teaching them because of their stage of development. This is because they are babies or infants. Do not be offended when you hear the churches now say "Praise the Lord" with tambourines and cymbals, because they are at the level of elementary schools.

METHOD OF BAPTISM OF THE PATRIARCHS:

You should understand this, at the time of Abraham, circumcision was the baptism, and whoever was circumcised was acknowledged as the real child of God. Then there came the time of Moses and the offering of a male child at the temple before the altar with two young pigeons. All those teachings came from this same universal school of love and from the same God but we are not now in that stage or level of school.

At the time of John the Baptist, immersing a would-be child of God in water became baptism. This was another stage and another form of baptism. He also started teaching people to repent, forsake sin, and to fast and pray. This was a more elevated school than those of Abraham and Moses. This is so in order that you may see the way, how Christ's Universal School of Love is, and since the beginning of time till now, the whole world is in this one Christ's Universal School.

ADVANCED BAPTISM AS INTRODUCED BY THE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST:

Then came a much higher teaching than the ones cited above. At the time of Christ, He instituted baptism of forgiveness of sin because until that time no sin was forgiven. This is the reason He said to the people at that time: "I have many thing to tell you but you are not able to receive them now." And why? Because the baptism of the Holy Spirit had not yet come. Also because so long as the Father had not come, they could not reach the knowledge of the truth. Our Lord Jesus Christ knew that he could not take them or lead them to the knowledge of truth, since they had not yet received the Holy Spirit, because of human weakness and frailty.

Christ knew that people were not ready for advanced teachings since they were all in elementary classes- Infant Class a, or Infant Class b, and He had not shed His blood, hence He did not introduce the teachings meant for the university level. (John 16:12)

THE ELEMENTARY TEACHINGS OF CHRIST FOR BEGINNERS:

Take for instance, when Our Lord Jesus Christ told His disciples that whosoever divorced his wife committed adultery and whosoever married the divorced woman also committed adultery. His disciples were about to run away, but He told them not to do so and He also made their hearts light by telling them to stay on, for that teaching was not meant for everybody, but for those whom the Father gives the ability to do so. They had murmured among themselves despairingly saying: "If this be so, then it is not good to marry." And they all wanted to run away. (John 6:67).

Now, Brethren, you will see that the early teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ were elementary or rudimentary teachings for beginners. You are all witnesses that when formal education started ou are newly in Nigeria and in many of Africa, people were parts hunted for, and caught, then were begged to go to they school; and at school they were educated free, and were also fed and clothedwere no school fees; gratis. There and as soon as one attained and passed standard two, at that time, he would be appointed as a headmaster. But things were not meant to continue like that, and that was not the aim and purpose of the people who brought education here. They had a greater objective here. They had greater aims and plans than they had shown initially.

At that time, people like the police, teachers, officers of government, got into big positions with the least or no qualifications; and does it mean that their plans and aims were short and shallow as that? It was only the beginning - the elementary stage.

At that time, people got into big jobs with all ease, with the least qualification, or none at all, because people with the qualifications required for such posts were not found. The early teachings of Christ can best be seen, and likened to this early colonial situation and days. At the beginning of Christ's teachings, once a person confessed that he believed in Christ, he was accepted as a child of God, not minding whether a person continued in idolatry, stealing, fornication or any other sin. This is the reason why people say they stand by the rudimentary and elementary teachings of Christ and that they are waiting for the Lord Jesus Christ. But I now tell you that the time for elementary teaching is past. People forget that our Lord Jesus Christ had promised that heaven and earth will pass away but the words right from Genesis to Revelation shall not pass away until all be fulfilled.

THE WORLDLY MINISTER CANNOT COME TO BROTHERHOOD BECAUSE HE IS IN THE ELEMENTARY TEACHING OF CHRIST:

Many people feel that to practise Christ's teachings is to use the Holy Bible as their pillow, or to read psalms, ring bells and wear long flowing garments with fantastic caps so that once they are seen by the people they will be recognized as people of God.

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WAS A WITNESS TO THE STATEMENT THAT WHEN THE COMFORTER COMES HE WILL LEAD YOU TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH. (John 15:26). NOW THAT THE COMFORTER HAS COME, WE CALL THIS SCHOOL A UNIVERSITY BECAUSE WE ARE NO MORE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

SOMETIMES A BROTHERHOOD MEMBER LEAVES FOR ANOTHER CHURCH DENOMINATION. YES, IT IS A FACT BECAUSE HE HAD NEVER COMPLETED THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND AS SUCH HE HAS TO GO BACK AND COMPLETE HIS COURSE IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. THIS IS THE REASON WHY MANY PEOPLE WITH TITLES LIKE:REVEREND, BISHOP AND OTHER STANDING MEMBERS OF OTHER CHURCHES CANNOT COME TO BROTHERHOOD BECAUSE THEY CANNOT RECEIVE THE UNIVERSITY EDUCATION WITHOUT DIFFICULTY.

The scripture says that men of this world marry and are given in marriage, but those who would inherit this kingdom do not marry, nor are they given in marriage, because they are like the angels and would not die for they are the children of God. (Luke 20:34-36). But today, marriage is highly esteemed in the whole world. In many churches of Christendom, one's claim is: "after all I am married in the church." In many churches too, when one is dead, the coffin is placed before their altar, accompanied by the ringing of heavy sounding bells. These are the only happiness people derive from attending various churches and these churches continue doing this in earnest because once they stop announcing to people the death of their members in that manner, these churches would lose their members.

From all these practices, you will now see why many people leave their various denominations to this university (Brotherhood of the Cross and Star) because they have already passed through elementary school, and they have to attain a higher learning. When you see mass movement, you need not quarrel because one has to go from one class to the other until one attains that knowledge of truth.

THE INTRODUCTION OF THE ARK OF COVENANT BY MOSES IN ALL CHURCHES OF CHRISTENDOM:

In the days of Abraham, when there was no church, God was named after Abraham because in those days it was he alone who served God. Similarly at the time of Isaac, Abraham's son, God was called God of Isaac, because Isaac served the same God. In the time of Jacob, God was called God of Jacob because Jacob alone served God. When Jacob carved out Israel, it was the God of Israel. There was no particular building called the house of God or church because you all are God's own house and He dwells in you.

The introduction of the Ark of Covenant by Moses is the bone of contention in all churches of Christendom and other places of worship all over the world. This ark of covenant consisted of incense, candle and the rest of the things, and it was regarded as sacred. In the days of David, a place was specifically provided for this ark of covenant, and it was worshipped.

This is the reason why today, when you visit any shrine to advise the juju priest and the priestesses to take to the worship of God, he or she vows never to forsake that system of worship, claiming that it was God who gave the system to Moses. Even in many churches today, this ark of covenant is fixed to the altar. The system of worship in the days of Moses and David was so absurd that it could hardly encourage anyone to worship God today. It is this very system of worship that all churches and other organizations adopt, forgetting that at the time it was constituted, Our Lord Jesus Christ had not shed His precious blood. All these practices neither lead us to salvation nor to the knowledge of truth. The scriptures in Hebrews chapter 9 confirm this.

Now Brethren, we have this problem because it is easier to destroy than to build. I say this so that it should not bother you when you see people who commit fornication or practise any manner of evil because such persons are in the elementary school of Christ.

When a child is born he has to be cared for, in all aspects of life, until he is able to fend for himself. So also are all manners of worship all over the world. But know that none of these modes of worship does us any good or can lead us to the knowledge of truth.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 20:26

"But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister."

CHRIST REBUKED THE ADOPTION OF THE WORLDLY ADMINISTRATIONS:

When Christ's disciples grumbled among themselves as to who would be the greatest with regards to the time one starts one's ministry, saying: "I was first," Christ replied that the princes of this world suppress people and deny them their rights but that is not the case with those who worship God.

You can see that in other churches it is the elders and bishops of the church who know the secrets of the church and they are catered for. But here in this new kingdom, Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, it is not so. Instead, all the so-called big people have to serve the new converts and the so-called small people.

In other Churches, elders kneel down before speaking to the bishops, and the communicants cannot for anything's sake, speak before the reverend. This is blasphemy in Brotherhood.

THE RECOGNITION OF WORLDLY TITLES ARE NOT REQUIRED IN BROTHERHOOD:

Now all those who want to be the greatest in this kingdom have to serve others. The claim to superiority extends even to the government departments, clans and families where the so-called big men remain to be served all the days of their lives. HERE WE PRACTISE NOTHING BUT THE TEACHINGS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, unlike in other churches and other places all over the world. Now the whole world refers to Brotherhood as a place for little children, destitute, and the afflicted, because everybody is treated equally in all aspects of life, regardless of status. The educated or illiterate, head of state or laborer has no special treatment nor hold any recognition. Your family members would not like to come to Brotherhood because during any celebration whereby an animal, say a cow, is slaughtered, the younger members would be denied the meat, for the elders would say that they are to eat the meat by themselves because in the days of their fathers, they were so treated, and so only the chiefs and elders would share the meat.

Our Lord Jesus Christ assured His disciples that such practices by the superiors cannot continue in this new kingdom of God. (Matt 18:1-4). Do you not see that whenever you visit any of these distinguished men of the world, they would ask, "What have you brought for me?" For years gone by, these people have been there receiving gifts but cannot give out gifts to others.

Many vow never to go to Brotherhood because as they are in the worldly organizations and churches, they are served according to merit, singly and in big ways. Even during celebrations, these dignitaries would sit comfortably, enjoying merriment of any kind while others would remain as onlookers. HERE IN THIS NEW KINGDOM

HE WHO WANTS TO BE GREATEST IS HE WHO SERVES, AND THIS IS THE TEACHING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.

THE ORDAINED ONES ARE DISAPPOINTED:

To become a big man in Brotherhood is not by appointment; and big men have no special seat. He who is greater ought to serve others, be kind and helpful to humanity; sweep the floor, dust the benches, which is the teaching of Our Lord Jesus Christ. These prophets and bishops here are very much disappointed as they imagined Brotherhood to be like the church denominations where people struggle for positions. But this type of behavior is not recognized here in Brotherhood because with all your wealth and worldly attainments, you have to serve others.

This is exactly what happened in the days of old, when studentship was introduced in Brotherhood. Then, the prophets mused and said, "What do these children want here?" When these students heard the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ that they should go to members house, and assist them with cooking and laundry work, the students became sad because they felt they were supposed to lord it over others, and they said that they were not coming to do such menial jobs. Today, these students grumble that they are not recognized. But how could the students be recognized when they do not want to serve others as taught by Our Lord Jesus Christ?

To this end, the prophets and the students blasphemed against God because they all came with the hope of lording it over others. But instead, they were given the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ which says that everyone is recognized by his work. Therefore, if you sit down claiming that as a senior person in Brotherhood, you should be served instead of serving, you are lost. Your claim as the eldest pastor is not recognized in this new kingdom.

RESERVED SEAT?

There are reserved seats in all churches, government departments, societies, families, and institutions of learning all over the world, for important visitors but there is none here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In other places, churches, societies and the rest of them, you often hear ushers ordering the commoners to vacate certain seats. Such practices are not accepted here in Brotherhood because rank, position, wealth and other qualifications are not recognized here. IF YOU WANT YOUR RANK AND QUALIFICATION TO BE RECOGNIZED, SERVE HUMANITY AND BE HUMBLE, ABIDING BY THE TEACHINGS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.

THE SYSTEM OF ADMINISTRATION IN THE NEW KINGDOM OF GOD:

People wonder how lawyers, doctors and all intellectuals in Brotherhood associate with the sick, the poor, and the children, and do everything in common. They even go on ten-toes because of the same teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Should you fail to practise this equality because of your worldly attainment, I tell you that you have no record in this kingdom. Do you know that eye service is the greatest offence before God? Should you offer a seat to a wealthy person and despise the poor, understand that you have deviated from the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Christ's teachings reveal to us that we are one in Christ. Therefore if you want to be great, serve people, visit them, be kind to them, sweep their houses, wash and iron their clothes. Even if you built a cathedral for God, you still have to serve others in order to be great. You have to use your wealth to serve God as a separate assignment because it is said that to whom much is given much is expected of him,(Luke 12:48). But that does not stop you from cleaning the chairs, sweeping the floor and serving others. Of all the institutions - churches, villages, societies, government - who call on the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ -"JESUS!JESUS!" which among them has practiced the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ that he who wants to be great should serve others?

CHRIST said that not all who call Him LORD! LORD! will enter into the kingdom of God, but those who do His Father's will. (Matt 7:21). Who are those who do His Father's will? THOSE ARE THE ONES WHO ARE WILLING TO SERVE HUMANITY, SUCH, ARE THOSE WHO DO HIS FATHER'S WILL. Let us hear our Second Bible Lesson.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: MATTHEW 23:11

"But he that is greatest among you let him be your servant."

THE GREATEST AMONG MEN IS A SERVANT:

This confirms the teaching that he who is greatest should serve others. But in your various homes, you allow your servants to serve you always. Some would shout at the top of their voices :"Anne, Ojo, Arit, have you done this or that?" By so doing you relinquish your position to those maids of yours because a servant is greater than he who is served. Do you not know that as the head of the house, you have to serve the rest by sweeping the house, cooking and running errands for yourself and all members of the family? Whether you are a Bishop, Reverend, or leader of a church, your duty is to administer unto your members, be kind to them, and visit them whenever they are sick. You should clothe and feed them. You should see about the welfare of their pastors, bishops, reverend fathers, and their leaders. These personalities are not good Christians because they do not abide by the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ

Even if you are the head of state, governor, permanent secretary or a professor, you should serve all those working under you; otherwise you are not worthy of your post. Those of you aspiring to hold responsible posts, be ready to administer unto your subjects, followers, and subordinates so that you will attain the desired posts.

A wife who does not serve the husband as she should is not a good wife. A child who cannot serve the parents as he ought to is not worthy to be a child.

Don't you know that ministers as we have in the churches and government departments are expected to be servants and messengers? Why then do you not serve others as your ranks imply? You have to quit the post if you cannot live up to expectations of the job.

Should the entire world abide by the teaching of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and should all the personalities of this world be willing to serve others, how peaceful would the world be! God has never ordained that one should be given an honorable position and be served by others throughout one's life. God Himself has never required such honour from you. He and His Christ work all the time.

(John 5:7). If one does not claim authority, it is well and good. But whatever you claim to be, be prepared to serve others. There is none who does not aspire to be great, but all you have to do when you become great is to serve all humanity.

ALL ASPIRING LEADERS MUST SERVE OTHERS:

Look around the government departments and other big establishments and you will observe that senior officers do practically nothing, except to roam around for pleasure while the junior staff members suffer. Going into the churches, you will find pastors and bishops relaxing but appointing other people to act on their behalf, even during communion services. How would you respond to such churches and government departments. All aspiring leaders and the personalities in the churches and other places all over the world, who do not abide by the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ, have not got the Father and the Son, but those leaders in the churches and other places all over the world who abide by His teachings have both the Father and the Son.

Don't you see that Our Lord Jesus Christ did not only teach but He also showed by practical example? Hence it was said that Our Lord Jesus Christ came into this world not to be served but to serve. Now that you desire to be served, who is the one you created specially to serve you here on earth? You claim to be the head of the family, a government department, who is he that ordained you to be what you are? OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST WARNED THAT NOBODY SHOULD BE CALLED A TEACHER, EXCEPT HE, FOR WE ARE ALL BRETHREN, AND NO PERSON SHOULD BE CALLED "FATHER," FOR GOD ALONE IS THE FATHER OF ALL; AND NONE SHOULD BE CALLED LORD EXCEPT ONE, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. (Matt 23:8-9).

Now you say, "I am not a Brotherhood member," what are you? Our Lord Jesus Christ in His Teachings says we all are of Brotherhood, or are you a Father or Lord? If you are not a Brotherhood, I am a Brotherhood. The teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ say: "LOVE THE BROTHERHOOD." (1 Pet 2:17). Let us hear our Golden Text.

GOLDEN TEXT: MATTHEW 7:12

"Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets."

GOD HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES:

What is the meaning of "Heaven helps those who help themselves?" It does not mean to look for juju prevention of any sort, but that whatever you want others to do for you, you should do same unto them. People serve in order to be served. Therefore, if you want people to love you, you must love others. If you want people to visit you, visit others. If you want to be trusted, trust others. If you want people to be honest to you do the same to them. People serve in order to be served. Therefore, your humility, visiting the bereaved, and the several works of mercy, are done in order that others would do the same to you.

THE LAW OF RETRIBUTIVE JUSTICE:

The ministers administer unto people so that they would be administered unto. Whatsoever that you want others to do for you, do also unto them. If you remain idle, hoping that God would meet with all your requirements you will be disappointed. If you feel that once you become wealthy that you would be recognized and loved, I assure you that you and your wealth would be disappointed, unless you love people, respect them, greet them and visit them, none would do the same to you. Do you disregard others and hate people or treat them badly simply because you are a chief or head of a clan? Sometimes you lament that people do not even pay you your due, I say, "Search yourself," whether you love others.

Some of you may say, "after all I fear nobody, I respect nobody but God." But understand that nobody in this life, even the lizard or an ant, would respect you. Some say that they cannot listen to anybody's advice except that of God, but do you not know that nobody on earth would listen to you? You keep on praying to God that people should be kind to you and love you, but if you are not kind to others and love others, nobody would do these things to you either, for it was written:"Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy." (Matt 5:7).

CHILDREN OF RICH MEN ARE NEVER COMMENDED:

It is a well known fact that children of the rich men never do well. How would they, when right from birth there is someone to wash their legs and another one to wash their hands?

They are trained at nursery schools. They put on costly shoes, eat decent food, and they are driven around in posh cars. A poor child in a local primary school who cannot even afford a term's school fees, wearing some tattered clothes would finally make a name because of the sufferings he went through. That is why Our Lord Jesus Christ said:"Should Christ not suffer so that He might pass into His glory?" Many of us do not associate with, nor visit our fellow brethren, but we expect others to come to us when there is need. One often hears the announcement, "brethren come to feast in my house."

GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS:

Understand that God is no respecter of persons, for whatsoever a man sows the same he shall reap. (Gal 6:7). If you are not respected by your children or wife, know that you do not respect yourself. This is so because whatsoever you sow is what you will reap. All the instructions are that you should love and be kind to people, and tell the truth. These are all for your own good; and this is the meaning of heaven helps those who help themselves. When you deviate from these teachings you will remain disappointed all the days of your life.

TURN A NEW LEAF:

You should now turn a new leaf. Love those who hate you, go on ministry, administer unto people, be kind to others, be truthful, be humble, and at the end you will behold God's glory. Some of you claim that people do not like Brotherhood. But I say that you are those who do not love the churches and everybody who is not a member of Brotherhood.

Most of you, before you came into Brotherhood belonged to other denominations and others came from families worshipping in juju shrines. Today why do you pray that fire should consume their shrines, or why do you tell the reverend father that he is condemned, or that he has not yet seen the light? This is not the correct way of approaching those who do not understand Brotherhood. You will often hear people say that the leader of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star practices the gospel, but it is the members who behave otherwise. For me, I preach about nobody. I preach about no church. I preach about no government. BUT I SAY THAT THOSE WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR SHOULD HEAR. IF YOU DO NOT HEAR, THEN I LEAVE YOU ALONE.

THE MISSION OF LEADER O.O. OBU ON EARTH

I DO NOT ESTABLISH A CHURCH. I DO NOT ESTABLISH A SERVICE CENTER; NOR DO I ESTABLISH A HEALING HOME, NOR A PRAYER HOUSE, NOR A HOSPITAL, BUT I IMPART THE SECRET TEACHINGS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Look around you, and you will find that all the government departments, societies, churches the world over, have deviated from the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ. NOW THE FATHER, THE SON,

AND THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS COME, YOU SHOULD THEREFORE RETURN TO YOUR GOD FOR HE IS WAITING TO RECEIVE YOU WITH OPEN ARMS. MY UTTERMOST HAPPINESS IS THAT PEOPLE, ALL OVER THE WORLD, DO REJOICE IN OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.

THE CAUSE OF DISAPPOINTMENT IN MARRIAGE:

If you want your children to respect and serve you, respect and serve them. God made a man and a woman to become one, why do you leave your wife and fornicate outside? The wife also on the other hand, prostitutes outside, because both of them do not have the fear of God in them, and as they do not respect themselves, they cannot be respected by anybody.

One often hears the husband instructing the wife that she is a wife, and that the house belongs to him, and as such, he must do as he pleases; and the wife says the same to the husband. Know that the very day you bring a little girl into the house in the name of a helper, her love for you is completely dead. Any time a man knows that his wife has another man outside the house, his love for her is dead, and the existance of the wife in the family is insignificant. Some of you lament that there is no respect of any kind for you from your husband or wife, and vice versa, but you fail to know that you did not respect yourself. If you do not want your wife to misbehave, do not misbehave; and if you do not want any other man to have an affair with your wife then never have an affair with another person's wife.

This is the trouble of the world; and whatever you want others to do unto you, do the same to them, for this is the law.

Brethren, I do not intend to be tedious with you. Those who have ears to hear, let them hear. May God bless His Holy Words.
