TOTAL POWER IN BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.

 

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: JOHN 4:23

"But the hour cometh and now is when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father seeketh such to worship him."

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: 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."

Brethren, the three Bible texts read to you constitute our revelation. You could recall when Our Lord Jesus Christ asked His disciples about the opinion of the people of the world about Him, they told Him that some believed that he was John the Baptist, others said Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets. Then He asked the disciples saying, "And who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter, in a quick reaction said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God." It was at this point that Christ told him, "Blessed are you Simon Barjonah! For flesh and blood hath not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven." Matt 16:13-17. And I tell you, you are Peter and on this rock I will build my church and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. I will give you the key of the kingdom of heaven and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth shall be loose in heaven." (Matthew 16:17-19). Thereafter, He, Christ, warned His disciples not to tell anyone that He was the Christ, until all the things meant to be fulfilled, were fulfilled. Right from the time Our Lord Jesus Christ died and resurrected, He was no longer known as Jesus but as the Christ. So Brethren, the great and wonderful works accomplished by Peter, were not done by him, but by the Holy Spirit through him. Right from that time no one is known to have performed any task except the Holy Spirit. Therefore we can rightly affirm that the Holy Spirit is the only accomplisher of all things.

You should also recall that it was on that fateful Pentecostal day that the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles. It was on that occasion that the apostles spoke in tongues. Right from that time, such people are no longer in the flesh, but in the spirit. It is very unfortunate that the world does not recognize Our Lord Jesus Christ as the one doing all the things taking place in the world today. It is because of this ignorance of His presence on earth that the people of the world erroneously believe that He is in the sky with His Mother and Father.

ANYONE WITHOUT THE SPIRIT CANNOT HEAR AND UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD. The works done in the gospels of Matthew and that of John are quite different from the works done in the Acts of the Apostles to Jude. But all the said works were done solely by Him in the Spirit. There is no word of God which is yet to be made manifest. What is written in John 4:23 has been made manifest today.

"But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in truth, for the Father seeketh such to worship him."

In fact it is a result of our understanding of the presence of the Holy Spirit here on earth that we often sing that "The Holy Spirit should come and lead us, for it was so written." So Brethren, I want you to understand that He is no longer operating in the flesh but in spirit. As such you should stop seeking for Christ in the flesh.

The cause of the trouble in the world is that people are still seeking for Christ in the flesh when He is in the Spirit. Also people have abstained from praying and fasting. However Our Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever, as it is written in the scriptures (Heb 13:8). You can address Christ with any name that pleases you, but the fact remains that He does not change and will never change.

If all the members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star were to be in spirit, they would not have experienced any problem. What we are witnessing now is the fulfillment of the word of God which says that though we knew Christ in the flesh, but right from then, none is known in the flesh anymore. The statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in John 16:7 is quite true. He said:

"Nevertheless, I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you."

The above statement is a confirmation of the fact that His first advent on earth was in the flesh. He is no longer known in the flesh but in the spirit. Whoever develops a strong dislike for spiritual churches is indirectly hating God. OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS HERE ON EARTH, BUT PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR WHEN HE WILL CRASH LAND FROM THE SKY. The question is who is this spiritual being accomplishing all these things here in the world? Again, what do people think is responsible for what is taking place in the world? Is it not the same Christ? We have been enjoined not to ascribe the works done by God through us to ourselves.

All the works done here on earth are performed by Christ in the spirit, but made through us. If you are advised to go to a certain place you should know that He is already there waiting for you. Also note that He is the only one that leads, secures and directs you in all your endeavors. In fact, He is the sole healer of infirmities. It is for this reason that the present generation is said to be the luckiest of all generations. Christ Himself assured us that:... "Except a corn of wheat falls to the ground and die, it abideth alone, but if it dies it bringeth forth much fruit." (JOHN 12:24).

Taking the above text into consideration, have you not seen the extent to which the works He did became greater after His death?

In fact, after His resurrection, He was known everywhere. But now, most people are waiting for His second coming. Those who fall within this group should really put themselves into prayer. If people did not lack the accurate knowledge of the truth, they would have regarded the statement of Our Lord Jesus Christ when He assured us thus: "When I go to prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to myself, that where I am you may be also." (JOHN 14:3). So beloved, if he did not come as promised, who do you think would have done these works seen daily?

John the Baptist baptized people with water; as such they did not receive the Holy Spirit. John himself gave eloquent testimony about the baptism of the Holy Spirit and also bore witness about Christ thus: "I baptize you with water unto repentance, but he that cometh after me, whose shoelace I am not worthy to unlatch, he shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire." (MATT 3:11).

Our Lord Jesus Christ has also testified that unless one is born of water and of spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God (JOHN 3:5). So this confirms the fact that the Son, the Father and the Holy Spirit are present in our midst. This is the time for the true worshippers to worship God in spirit and in truth. It is not a time for people to go to Mecca, Jerusalem, mountain, among other places, to seek for God; for, behold, He is within your reach.

We are also taught not to call anyone teacher, for we are all brethren and we have just one teacher, who is Christ. (Matt 23:8). Have you not seen this thing happening in this kingdom today? You have also been told that God shall teach you all things and those who will receive His teachings, will follow Him. (John 14:23). This is exactly what is going on in the kingdom today. He Christ has enjoined his disciples that blessed is he that does not see yet he believes. (John 20:29). This is what we are witnessing here in the kingdom.

Many people often claim that they cannot be defeated by anybody, not to talk of their mates. But today, He is defeating whoever He wishes at ease. Yet you do not accept His existence on earth. Do you want to be defeated by one who you do not see and touch? He (The Holy Spirit) was in existence before the foundation of the world earth was laid. So, note that there is no time he ceased to exist. But the Father has assigned appropriate time for everything. In the past, great and marvelous works were done in secret but now everything is done in the open.

The time when people used to know Him in the flesh has passed, giving way to the spirit. You should recall the period when King Saul and David fought. When Saul was informed that David was in Sammuel's house, Saul instructed three of his soldiers to go to Sammuel's house and kill David and bring his head to him. When the soldiers got there and they saw David, they could not carry out their assignment. Instead, they were very friendly with David and chatted with him. It was during their conversation that the soldiers told David their mission.

After that the soldiers left. Have you seen the work of the Holy Spirit? This is a proof to you that the Holy Spirit has never ceased to exist. He is ever before and behind, beside, and all around you. He is in fact existing in every nook and cranny of the world, doing His work. When the messengers of Saul arrived, they chatted, and dined with him. And that David even saw them off. Saul, on hearing this, decided to put on his armour of war to go to Sammuel's house to behead David.

Brethren, when King Saul arrived where David was, the spirit of God overwhelmed him and he started to prophesy. When people saw him, they were astonished and they started to ask when King Saul became a prophet. (1 Sam 19:20-24). King Saul in this case was rendered powerless and defeated by Christ. So there is nothing impossible in the hands of Christ. Imagine Saul who had gone there with the sole aim of beheading David, turning round to ask David of when he would return in a very peaceful manner. Indeed, Saul was overpowered by the Spirit of God to the extent that he started to plead with David to forgive him. They even ate and drank together before he left peacefully to his destination. Now the question is who was responsible for this event? Is it the Holy Spirit which you erroneously address as ghost, mermaid, Beelzebub and charm? Have you now seen the Beelzebub, ghost, mermaid, and witch which people often claim exist in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star? It is as a result of the existence of the Holy Spirit in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and our fervent belief in Him that people find it difficult to harm us.

One of our sisters who lives in Ogoi-Ibami in Cross River State testified to how the entire villagers unsuccessfully planned to kill her, for the mere fact that she is a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Their hatred for the sister was so much that they attributed the death of her brother to her. In order to kill her, she was ordered to come and bury the dead body of the brother. Before she arrived there, the villagers had prepared charms and placed them on the seat she was to sit on. Quite unknown to her, when she got there she sat on the seat quite comfortably and nothing happened to her. When the people discovered that the woman was not hurt, they were astonished about the power in the sister. Since these villagers were bent on killing the woman, they went ahead to arrange with a hired assassin to kill her. What I am imparting to you is not a dream but a reality, so take note. One morning, the hired assassin went to hide along the path leading to the bethel which the sister used to follow while going to morning prayers so as to execute his evil plan. But as this woman was approaching him with her lamp, the hired killer fell into a gutter and the sister even went there to rescue him. Inside the gutter, the sister saw a loaded pistol which the man was to use in killing her. She handed it to him and he returned without carrying out his evil plans. With this the villagers who had sent the hired assassin were amazed. It was at this point that they started blaming the hired killer for having drunk before he went to execute the plan. As if that was not enough lesson for them, another man, a son to the dead brother of the sister was drafted for the assignment in the sense that he was a member of Ecankar and as such he was capable of killing the sister with ease.

So he went and hid in a very strategic spot which would enable him to kill her. As she approached, he shot at her three times but nothing happened to her. To his greatest shock, he came out of his hideout to address the woman. He said, "Arit (The sister's name) are you not the one I am shooting at? What do you use to protect yourself against bullets?" In apparent surprise, she asked the man what had happened. She asked the offense she had committed to warrant him to shoot at her. That person also failed and his efforts proved abortive. In fact all those who embarked on the evil plan have completely stopped because they discovered that they could not harm her at all. Owing to this most of the evil planners have baptized into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star in order to be blessed with such power. Now the question is, in your estimation, who was responsible for this event? Do you know that you are an embodiment of this power which people address as Beelzebub, witch, ghost and mermaid?

You should understand that from the day you accept baptism, you have put on Christ as your armour. You automatically become one with Christ. Therefore it is needless for you to segregate, hate, kill, fornicate, or commit any other vice. For being one with Christ, you are equally counted among the children of Abraham, the heirs of the kingdom.

So Brethren, the spoken words of Christ have been manifested at the fullness of time. The mermaid, Beelzebub, witch, and other foul spirits which people claim exist in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the Christ in you. Such things like juju, witchcraft, soothsaying and works of necromancers have all been rendered impotent, and they are no longer effective. Why then should the members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star with the power in them seek for help from these things? Do you not know that the power possessed by members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star often renders all evil forces useless at any place and at any point in time a member passes along. It is for this reason that most necromancers have resorted to banning members of Brotherhood from coming near their shrines so that their juju will not be useless. You have to be made to understand this fact today.

The Holy Spirit has come to live on earth and He has entered into all the creations of God to take control of their affairs. All the so-called world powers, the native doctors, necromancers, wizards, juju priest, among others, have been deprived of their powers. They are no longer active. Christ alone is the only reigning force and power in the whole universe. "All powers are given unto me in heaven and on earth." (MATT 28:18). This accounts for the unpredictable happenings in the world today. The children of God now have the right and privilege to go round every nook and cranny of the world to propagate the word of God to all creation of the Father. Now the blacks, quite unlike before can boldly go to the whites and preach the word of God and pray for them. If the Holy Spirit were not to take control of human affairs, man could have seen himself in a worse situation than what is existing now.

And there is no man who can effect these types of changes in the world. Imagine the type of spiritual work that the Father is using Christ Witness Mary Obu to accomplish abroad. If the Father was not the one using her, who is she to preach the gospel to the whites.

When the Father liberated Ghana, they said they did not have the need for a preacher, because they felt they knew so much. They resisted all attempts for a preacher or a full-time worker to be sent to them from here. As such they could not achieve any reasonable thing. In line with the Father's pronouncement, during the king of kings visit to Ghana, it was disclosed to them it is only the ordained preachers, students, or Christ's servants that are authorized to serve and train others on the teachings of the Father. It was only then that they accepted to have a full-time worker, Christ Student Bernard, sent to them. It was when Brother Bernard arrived that the Father used him to accomplish the onerous task of demolishing all undesirable things in Ghana. Hitherto, Brotherhood did not make any impact in Ghana. But today everybody has an idea about Brotherhood there. Who else has done these if not the Father Himself. And so you make a mistake when you say that Christ is yet to come. HE IS HERE IN OUR MIDST TODAY. HE IS THE ONE DOING EVERYTHING HEREIN OBTAINED. Read the First Lesson again.

FIRST BIBLE LESSON: JOHN 4:23

"But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him."

It is said that obedience is better than sacrifice (1 Sam 22:15). This is the mode of worship God desires from those that are willing to worship Him, and so you must worship Him in spirit and in truth. You are to heed his divine instructions at all times.

You should recall when the people sought to know from Christ why His disciples did not fast whereas the disciples of John did fast. He told them that so long as he was with them, they had no cause to fast, but that they would fast when he was no longer with them. (Matt 9:14-15). Have you not fasted today? FASTING STARTED THE MOMENT HE WAS HANGED ON THAT AWFUL TREE. TODAY FASTING IS A VERY RELIABLE SOURCE OF EARNING FAVOR FROM GOD. These things I keep revealing to you are consequent upon the fact that even till today those of you who claim to be members of this fold are still doubting the person responsible for the works in this kingdom.

Do you think your improved condition of living and freedom are a result of your hardwork? Somebody must have been responsible for this and many more. Then ask yourself, who is that person? Who is He? When you are confronted with a question such as, "What is in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star?" you will be bereft of words. At times, you say nothing. What do you mean by: "there is nothing in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star." Where else can you hear the word of God which you have here? And where have you seen a worse condition changed for the better one? Within seconds, by pronouncing "Let" the bad condition then gives room for a better one. Even at gun point, grave yard, sick bed, the scene of a fatal accident, in abject poverty, lack and extreme frustration many have found life, grace, peace, comfort, and indeed, a new lease of life at the pronouncement of "LET" and O.O.O. Is this not unique?

With these experiences, can a right thinking person not believe that there is something in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star? You have not yet told the world the truth about this kingdom of God. Again you tell the world that it is Leader Olumba Olumba Obu who is doing this work. What evidence is there that He is the one doing this work? What equipment, charms, etc, have you seen me use? I HAVE NEVER TAKEN YOU TO ANY SHRINE OR RIVER BANK ETC. TO PERFORM ANY FORM OF RITUALS. What then qualifies me as the one doing this work? I am permanently stationed at 34 Ambo Street, Calabar. How come people say they see the Father lavishly in all countries of the world? Do not attribute the glory of this work to any man. The Holy Spirit is responsible for everything in this kingdom.

CHRIST IS AT THE HELM OF EVERYTHING DONE HERE. THAT IS WHY EVERYTHING IS NAMED AFTER HIM IN THIS KINGDOM. WE HAVE SUCH NAMES AS CHRIST STUDENT, CHRIST SERVANT, CHRIST WITNESS, CHRIST UNIVERSAL SPIRITUAL SCHOOL OF PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY. Call a spade a spade. Tell the world that Jehovah God and His Christ are responsible for all the works in this kingdom. He is everywhere monitoring the affairs of the entire world and He is aware of every comment made by any man.

You could recall that Thomas did not believe that Christ had resurrected when he was informed; and unknown to him, Christ was spiritually present in their midst. And so, when after eight days, Christ appeared in their midst, and called upon Thomas to put his hand in His pierced side, Thomas then believed that Christ had resurrected. This he believed because he had seen the wounded side. Our Lord Jesus Christ said to him, "Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen and yet have believed." (JOHN 20:19-29).

THE DEATH OF CHRIST ON THE AWFUL TREE OF CALVARY MAKES FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS, HENCE YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT TO CONFESS YOUR SINS, ACCEPT BAPTISM AND COMPLETELY REFRAIN FROM ALL MANNER OF SINS IF YOU MUST HAVE LIFE, BUT MANY CHURCHES OF THE WORLD DO NOT KNOW THIS. THOUGH MANY OF THEM UNDERGO BAPTISM BY IMMERSION, THEY DO NOT CONFESS THEIR SINS BEFORE SUCH BAPTISM. THAT IS WHY WHEN YOU COME HERE, YOUR PREVIOUS BAPTISM NOTWITHSTANDING, YOU HAVE TO BE BAPTIZED AGAIN INTO THIS KINGDOM. AND YOU HAVE TO CONFESS YOUR SINS AND ACCEPT BAPTISM IN THIS KINGDOM EVEN IF YOU ARE A POPE OR A FOUNDER OF YOUR CHURCH.

THE FIRST STAGE OF BAPTISM IS THE CONFESSION OF SINS AND REFRAINING FROM IT. AFTER THAT IS THE RECEPTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. YOU CANNOT RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT UNLESS YOU HAVE CONFESSED AND REFRAINED FROM ALL MANNER OF SINS. The orthodox worldly churches do not have this wisdom. It is only here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star that this secret is unveiled. THIS IS SO BECAUSE THE KEY TO THE SECRET OF THE KINGDOM IS CUSTODIED HERE. ONCE YOU CONFESS AND REFRAIN FROM SINS, AND YOU ACCEPT BAPTISM, YOU ARE BLESSED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND WITH THIS CHRIST INDWELLS YOU. HE WILL ASSUME RULERSHIP OF YOUR ENTIRE BODY AND DO EVERYTHING FOR YOU. YOU WILL NO LONGER LACK PEACE, LOVE, JOY, AND IN FACT ALL GOOD THINGS WILL ABOUND IN YOUR LIFE.

The wisdom of God is unique. It cannot be compared to the wisdom of man. During the 1914 World War, crude weapons were used. During the 1939 war, more sophisticated weapons were manufactured and used. As time went on, the so-called world super-powers manufactured missiles, jets, chemical weapons, atomic bombs and computerized nuclear warheads that were better than those of past years. They now boast that these weapons, if put to use, can destroy a whole country in a matter of minutes. These are the handiwork of man. If man has gone this far, it then implies that God cannot be reached. And so, you will believe me that as the heavens are higher than the earth so has the wisdom of God surpassed that of man. (Isa 55:9).

Ever since man started to investigate Brotherhood, have they come up with any useful information? Even you members of Brotherhood, have you got anything to say with regard to the nature of Brotherhood? You too are confused about what Brotherhood is all about. You cannot deny the fact that you came here to seek for protection. Some of you came here for charms. Having thought that Brotherhood is a secret cult, you came to be initiated into it so that you might command influence in the society. You never for once thought it to be the Kingdom of God.

IF YOU WERE TO PRACTISE WHAT YOU ARE TAUGHT IN THIS KINGDOM, YOU WOULD HAVE WITNESSED GOD'S PHYSICAL PRESENCE IN YOU. THE WISDOM OF GOD THAT HAS SINCE ELUDED YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN REVEALED TO YOU AND YOU WOULD NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN. It is because you have not totally surrendered yourself completely to God that you continue to attribute the glory of the works of this kingdom to man. You err by saying that Olumba is the one doing the work in this kingdom. Let it be known that God and Christ are responsible for all the things done here. Read the Second Lesson again.

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 to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you."

Is it Olumba Olumba Obu who was promised in the above scriptural text? It is none other than the Holy Spirit. He is the one operating in the whole world today. God cannot promise white and give black. His promise is unchangeable and is ever sure. He promised the world a Comforter, the Holy Spirit of truth and today, the same Comforter, the Holy Spirit of truth is the active force in our midst.

The promise of Our Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in John 14:15-17 has today manifested. For you to qualify to reap the fruit of the divine promise, you need to love one another. Love is the key to open all doors in the kingdom of God. If you practise universal love, the Holy Spirit will come down and indwell you and accomplish all tasks for you. You cannot do anything. He is the one doing everything. You err whenever you say the Father is using you. He cannot use you because you are not fit for use. He is the one doing everything in this kingdom and in the entire world.

The Holy Spirit is life, power, and everything to the world. Have you heard or read from any book that juju, mermaid, apparition, etc., is lavishly seen everywhere performing great and commendable feats? None has this unique quality of omnipresence except the Holy Spirit. If you worship Him in spirit and in truth, you would not have any need for Him to be shown to you or His injunctions to be spelt out for you. But if you worship Him correctly, you will know Him and hear His voice and heed His instructions, and above all, He will assume rulership over you and you will not be the same again.

When next you are asked who is responsible for the work in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, or whose power operate herein, tell them that it is the Holy Spirit that is at work. And again if you find anyone seeking for ways of getting the Holy Spirit, tell such a person to confess his sins and refrain from all manners of sins and accept baptism by immersion, after which the Holy Spirit will indwell the person and do everything for him.

There is no point consulting any man to do anything for you. Do not seek for any man to teach you. The Holy Spirit is the only Teacher and Lord. Do not rely on any man anymore. Gone are the days when God operated as man. That was when you killed Him on the Cross. That was when He came to invite people to follow Him and they told Him to wait until they bade farewell to their parents and relations at home. Till today, such people have not returned to follow Christ.

This is an indication that man had no value for God when He came as a man. Now he has come as the Holy Spirit. He does not need your consent before He calls you. Once the invitation is extended to you, you have to let go all you had and abandon everything that you had been doing and follow Him sheepishly. As a spirit, His invitation is irresistible. This is the era of the Holy Spirit, as such no man is known in the flesh any longer, but everyone is known in the spirit. And for you to be known in the spirit you have to live a sin free life.

You will not be subjected to questioning if you tell somebody that it is the Holy Spirit that is doing everything in this kingdom. If you tell somebody this but he refuses to believe leave him alone for Christ will definitely approach and tell him that everything is done by the Holy Spirit, and he will eventually realize the truth and accept it. After all many have testified that before they ever came into the fold, they had no knowledge of Brotherhood, but the Father appeared to them and told them about Brotherhood and even brought them into this fold.

No doubt you are likely to find difficulty seeking the Holy Spirit, but the reverse is the case when He seeks for you. Once He has need for you, He will condition your mind and you will go to him without any form of resistance. Many have spent sleepless nights, and others, their fortunes, to work against Brotherhood, all with the intention of destroying the kingdom, yet they could not achieve their aims. And so, you should not doubt the fact that if Brotherhood were to be man-made, it would have since been destroyed. To be frank and sincere, Brotherhood members would have destroyed it by now. However, after all the efforts towards destroying it having failed, you should therefore be convinced that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not a man-made kingdom but the kingdom of God.

The Holy Spirit is capable of doing everything and so for you to benefit from Him, flee from sin. The world suffers mishap and lack because they have rejected the Holy Spirit and His words. If you heed His words and accept Him as He who was to come to lead the world to the accurate knowledge of the truth, you will have no problems whatsoever.

OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BORE WITNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND SO ALSO DID THE PROPHET MOHAMMED. This is so because they know that what is impossible before man is quite possible with God. (Luke 18:27). No other power can survive the pressure mounted on this kingdom. But because of the presence of the Holy Spirit in our midst, all the juju that people bring here, the prayers against Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, the campaign of calumny against the members have been rendered useless.

The more you investigate the Holy Spirit, the less you understand Him. Many have met their Waterloo in trying to fight against the Holy Spirit. No man can compete with nor successfully fight against God. But whatsoever is done by man or juju could also be done by another man or juju. But whatever is done by God cannot be contested by either man or juju. He is the doer of all things you hear of, read of, and witness in the whole world and not I. How can I do it when physically, I stay in Calabar but the work is done all over the world and virtually at the same time. What manner of man do you think can do this? None other but God, for He is an all capable God.

You do recall that Our Lord Jesus Christ was condemned to death because of the misunderstanding the Jews had about Him. They believed Him to be the sole doer of the works, then, even when He had told them many times that the Father was the doer of the works. The Jews condemned Him to death with the hope that when he must have died, the work will cease. Far be it from that. The work continued after His death, and even after His death, much more remarkable works are done up to this day. Just as Our Lord Jesus Christ said, I reiterate that I am not the doer of the works you are witnessing in this kingdom, rather, I am bearing testimony to the Holy Spirit, the doer of the works.

THE ONE PROMISED BY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST HAS ARRIVED IN YOUR MIDST. THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS ARRIVED AND HE IS CURRENTLY DOING ALL THAT WAS DESIGNED AND PREPLANNED FOR HIM TO DO. You contradict the issues when you say that man is the one doing all the works in this kingdom. You should know that no man wants another man to rule. Any attempt by a man from one tribe to rule the world would be faced with serious problems, and indeed deadly resistance from the people of the other tribes. God knows this, hence He decided to come by Himself to do the work alone. However, the same God who is rejected all over the world is the one doing the wonderful works in our midst. HIS RULE IS EVERLASTING. NO COUP CAN SUCCEED HIM TILL ETERNITY.

Mysterious as the work of God is, if you mention a particular person as the doer of these works, you have automatically named that person as a witch or a wizard. Compare the works in this kingdom to a shop located somewhere in the outskirts of a town.

The store which is fully stocked with wares has no one to attend to customers, yet people buy from the shop. The question is who renders these services? If you tell somebody that the shop which belongs to Mr. Okon is managed by the man, then you are indirectly saying that he is a witch. You therefore are responsible for anything he encounters as a result of your information.

Brethren, do not attribute the glory of God to any man. The Holy Spirit is the operational force in the world today. The Father came and manifested His share of work and went back. The Son came, fulfilled His assignment and left. This is the reign of the Holy Spirit and He shall reign forever and ever. Read the Golden Text again.

GOLDEN TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away, behold all things are become new."

Have you not witnessed a change in your life? All the mundane things of this world have been destroyed completely. The Holy Spirit alone is the operational force. It has made all things new in your life. All inventions are useless. Medicines, roots, herbs, drugs, etc. have ceased to function as before. All powers on earth and in heaven have been subdued, leaving the Holy Spirit alone to prevail. The whites, blacks, and indeed all creations have gathered to research into the source of this power, yet they have not come up with any useful information. Unknown to them, the flesh had long ceased to exist. This accounts for the reason you are dreaded by the people of the world. All efforts to harm you have failed because you have been made a new creature in Christ. You are free to go to any place, anytime, because the Holy Spirit has taken full control of you. No plan against you can succeed. This is why you have been given every derogatory name. When the people of the world brag about harming you, you need not be bothered. Instead, continue in your joy, dance, sing and glorify your Father's kingdom because no matter the evil they plan against you they will never succeed.

Brotherhood of the Cross and Star could be likened to an aircraft flying in the sky without any negative thought of its safety. On the other hand, the people of the world could be likened to people on the ground watching the aircraft flying. In their folly, they are filled with negative thoughts of whether or not the aircraft would crash and fall on them. You who are here do not realize the extent to which your power has overcome the people of the world. Rather it is the outsiders who realize how effective your power is. The people of the world have now been conquered by the Father. This is because at the first instance, he sent the prophets into the world and they were killed. Secondly, He sent His angels and they were killed. Thirdly, He decided to send His only begotten son, and He was killed by the people of the world.

But now that the Holy Spirit has rendered the governments, powerful people, churches, individuals and groups useless and ineffective. In fact, He alone has conquered all and sundry. It is for this reason that the entire inhabitants of the world are now panic-stricken. When people speak ill of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, and attribute its power to evil forces without evidence, to support their allegations, they do that out of ignorance. But the Comforter sent to us by the Father to teach us all things has been proved beyond all reasonable doubts. In the same vein, whoever is in the spirit is a new creation in Christ, because all the old things, (flesh) have passed away. So for us to be one with Christ, we need to purge all those acts which defile the body.

Now in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, the rate at which people involved in sinful acts such as drunkenness, flesh eating, segregation, fornication, etc. have been drastically reduced. But if you were to be told that there shall come a time for such things to take place, would you have believed? What you are seeing and experiencing here in this kingdom are in line with what John saw. When the angel of the Lord asked John a certain question, he also gave a certain answer, which has confirmed what is happening in Brotherhood. For details read Revelation 7:9-16. So Brethren, we are in Christ. For that reason we need to forgo all forms of materialism and the old lifestyles. We get entangled into problems once we indulge in any sinful acts.

The old life styles that were controlled by sinfulness have been ejected from the surface of the earth. Therefore it is incumbent on us to embrace the new lifestyle which is righteousness if we wish to remain problem free. Have you not heard what Revelation 11:15 says: "And the seventh angel sounded: and there were great voices in heaven, saying, the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdom of Our Lord and his Christ; and he shall reign forever and ever."

From what is written in the text you would realize that the kingdom you are in today is the one referred to. The kingdoms of the world have become the kingdom of God and His Christ. The situation could be likened to the house of a necromancer being automatically changed to a place for worshipping God. And the former customers of such necromancers on arriving there, would join in worshipping God, thereby, avoiding the preparation of juju. This is why Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is capable of converting to God all the great sinners of the world. It is the existence of the Holy Spirit in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star that is responsible for every marvelous work done. Therefore it is erroneous for you to tell people that there is nothing in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star when asked about Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.

When people say openly that you do not know the Father, it is a veritable truth. This is because you continue to wallow in sin. Let those who have ears hear. May the Lord bless His Holy Words. Amen.

THANK YOU FATHER.
