Resurrection revival Part 1 Preached ON Sunday 6th October, 2024 AT THE VOICE OF GOD STUDIO Bridal Lodge, Nsugbe Anambra State, Nigeria BY Apostle Peter Odoemena THE SON OF MAN The Resurrection and Life
Transcribed by Bishop David Mbah, Students’ Fellowship, MOUAU, Abia State, Nigeria
11For both He that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause He is not ashamed to call them Brethren, 12saying, I will declare Thy Name unto My Brethren, in the midst of the Church will I sing praise unto Thee. 13And again, I will put My trust in Him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given Me. 14Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15and deliver them, who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. 16For verily He took not on Him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the Seed of Abraham. 17Wherefore in all things it behooved Him to be made like unto His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. 18For in that He Himself hath suffered being tempted, He is able to succour them that are tempted.
Hebrews 2:11-18, KJV
4For He spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all His works. 5And in this place again, If they shall enter into My rest. 6Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: 7again, He limiteth a certain day, saying in David, Today, after so long a time; as it is said, Today if ye will hear His Voice, harden not your hearts. 8For if Jesus had given them rest, then would He not afterward have spoken of another day. 9There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. 10For he that is entered into His rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from His. 11Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.12For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him with Whom we have to do.
Hebrews 4: 4-13, KJV
51Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58Therefore, my beloved Brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
1 Corinthians 15:51-58, KJV.
19Having therefore, Brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20by a new and living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh; 21and having a High Priest over the House of God;22let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. 23Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for He is faithful that promised; 24and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. 26For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 26but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
Hebrews 10:19-26, KJV
Christ is the owner of His Church and He cannot share His Glory with any man. He is the administrator of His Church and He has commanded His Ministers to be very careful the way they handle the affairs of His Kingdom. You are administrators God has approved to look after His own Heritage. At the end, you will have a reward from the Man that appointed you. And Ministers! You know it is a privilege, not a merit. Do you know that?

INTRODUCTION
PSALMS
- Psalms 92, The Living Bible. [1]It is good to say thank you to the Lord, to sing praises to the God who is above all gods.[2]Every morning tell Him, “Thank you for your kindness,” and every evening rejoice in all His faithfulness.
- [3]Sing His praises, accompanied by music from the harp and lute and lyre.[4]You have done so much for me, O Lord. No wonder I am glad! I sing for joy.
[5]O Lord, what miracles you do! And how deep are your thoughts! - [6]Unthinking people do not understand them! No fool can comprehend this:[7]that although the wicked flourish like weeds, there is only eternal destruction ahead of them.
- [8]But the Lord continues forever, exalted in the heavens,
[9]while His enemies—all evildoers—shall be scattered.[10]But you have made me as strong as a wild bull. How refreshed I am by your blessings!
[11]I have heard the doom of my enemies announced and seen them destroyed. - [12]But the godly shall flourish like palm trees and grow tall as the cedars of Lebanon.[13]For they are transplanted into the Lord’s own garden and are under His personal care.
- [14]Even in old age they will still produce fruit and be vital and green.[15]This honours the Lord and exhibits his faithful care. He is my shelter. There is nothing but goodness in him! Amen!
PRAYER
- Our Holy and Righteous Holy Spirit, any other reverend father is an impersonated one, for the Scriptures have told us that holy and reverend is Your Name, and will remain Your Name also, for we address You by Your attributes.
- We address You by Your manifestations. We address You by any Name You revealed to us in our own day. Yet, You Have Your own exclusive Name, reserved for Yourself which has become Your Key.
- And that is the Key You do not give out anyhow, that unlocks everything. It is the Key that opens everything as well. It unlocks the gate of hell. It closes and locks the gate of hell. It unlocks the gate of Paradise. It opens and locks up the gate of Paradise.
- You reserved that Key to Yourself. You sparingly give it out and, at the same time, collect it from the recipient without allowing him or her to come back and testify to the living of what happened.
- You are indeed a mysterious God, an awesome God, a Paradox, a Sage, an Enigma. You are an incomprehensible God. Who can understand your ways? Nobody! Who can fathom out Your doings from the beginning to the end? Father, nobody!
- You exist alone. You live for Yourself. You do that which is made right in Your sight without counsel from anybody. You oversee and superintend all the activities of men on earth. Yet, they knoweth it not.
- You have been sojourning with mankind here on earth, and they know it not. No man knoweth Who You are but Your Son. No man has identified Your Son but You, and to whomsoever Your Son will choose to reveal Who You are and Who He is.
- We are a privileged people. We are enjoying Your unmerited favour. It is not ordinary grace, but marvelous grace – abundant grace without doubt and sin.
- SONG: [Give us grace to follow. We need Your grace to follow. Give us grace to follow. Your grace is enough for us.]
- If we must boast, we must boast on our weakness. We boast on those things we cannot afford to do. Those things we have tried to attempt and we failed woefully– that is where our boast is, for You are made strong even in our weakness.
- Therefore, we boast on our weaknesses and not on our strength so that Your strength will be transferred to us [O God] in the time of need.
- Each time we pray, we hear the Voice that will comfort us saying, “Do not give up! Your victory is sure. Do not give up! Your victory is on the way. Do not give up, for My grace is sufficient for you.”
- Father, we are not relying on our strength anymore. We are no longer counting on what we can do or what we cannot do. We are depending on Your grace and on Your grace alone.
- He that worketh and he is paid for his labour was not given any gift. But he that did not work, and at the end of the day, he is given a gift as a reward even for not doing anything, even rewarded more than those who laboured, to him is grace applied.
- SONG: [Glory to Your Name, Almighty God. Glory to Your Name. There to my life was the grace applied. Glory to Your Name.
- Glory to Your Name, Almighty God. Glory to Your Name. There to my heart was the blood applied. Glory to Your Name.]
- Even when we were yet sinners, You never asked us to repent. You decided to die in our place. A sinless God, Christ in human form.
- You assumed the human flesh to pay the penalty for sin once and for all– a supreme price we could not pay so that we might remain the righteousness of God through Your resurrection from the dead [LORD] that a sinless Man – God – could lay down His life for His fellow human being– Sinful men that ought to be crucified like us.
- LORD, that is why we joined in Your crucifixion. On the cross of Calvary where You were crucified for our sins, there we were crucified. In that tomb, the valley of death, where You were laid down, there we were laid down.
- On that resurrection morning, when You conquered death, then we resurrected with You. We triumphed with You.
- Heavenly Father! In You, we live. In You, we move. In You, we exercise our being. The life we now live is not our own. It is Your life. Anything You do not want us to indulge in, You know how to restrain us from it, for no man can break away from Your grip.
- Thank You O LORD that we are not numbered among those people that are worshipping You sensationally, emotionally or by human impulse. We are worshipping You by revelation of Who You are, not by the imaginations and the thoughts of our hearts, and not by the feelings of our heart, for You came down and revealed Yourself.
- We saw you. We captured You in our visions and dreams. You came down and with our naked eyes, we saw You.
- In diverse places and at various times, You manifested Yourself in a great Light. Father, You quenched every artificial light, and the Light of Your presence illuminated the whole Camp. Father, we saw the whole thing with our naked eyes.
- We were there when You came as a thick darkness and enveloped all of us to the point that we could not see ourselves but we were hearing our voices. Few minutes, the thick darkness vanished.
- Father, with our eyes we saw the lilies there, standing before our pulpit like cassava stems with leaves. Before we knew it, the whole thing turned out to be a being clad in a white raiment. And then, we heard Your Voice from the Excellent Glory.
- What is more? The heaven and earth stood silent when the revelation of the seven thunders were opened to the sixth seal. You came down immediately in a pillar of fire and in a pillar of light and quenched everything including the PA system.
- Your Light we used. We used Your supernatural Light before many witnesses for over 10 minutes. You withdrew it, and light came abruptly. Father, we are living witnesses of all these things.
- What is more? We were there when You, in the form of a man – the son of man – made a promise in 1993 that You were going to speak a dove into existence before many witnesses.
- As we journeyed along, we received testimony from Aba of how they saw a dream of dove that flew down and rested on the palms of the son of man. He lifted it up amidst witnesses and said, “So shall it be.”
- As we continued to worship, one day, He saw it in the Revelation of the Seven Seals. Father, what happened? He spoke that dove into existence, and the dove became a mysterious dove till today.
- The dove became His best friend in the office and from the office, it was taken down home. Nobody tied the dove. The dove was a big dove like a pigeon. After hovering and hovering, the dove would still come back and still perched on His shoulder.
- And the dove waited from morning. From 11o’clock in the morning till 6.30pm, until almost all the Elders came. Neighbours came. Street members came on hearing what was happening. They saw the dove jumping from that soursop tree down to the shoulders of THE SON OF MAN continually.
- At a point, the dove was told, “You were given grains to eat, but you fused. You were given granules of Garri, but it refused. You were given feed meant for birds, for our neighbour was raising chickens [fowls], but you refused to eat the feed. Yet you remained healthy and friendly. You were commanded to go, but you left and came back again. You flew over about seven buildings. Everybody saw that you were a living bird. There was no rope on your neck or your wings, but you still came back here, which made the pastor of Grace of God to shout, ‘This is the greatest occult man in the yard.’ ”
- But the landlord repelled him, “How can He be an occult man performing. You that believe in God, He has done His own. Do your own! And stop the allegation.” He was chilled.
- After some time, we beckoned it to go. I threw it into the air, but it came back again. It then waved the two wings before the Elders, flew and did not come back.
- That same night, the same man who called it occult knocked at My door to tell Me that his wife was in coma. He said that the wife collapsed at midnight, near unto death and there was no vehicle to take her to any hospital.
- That same occult man went there with a bottle of Olive oil, poured it on the head of the woman, tapped on her chest and she sprang up and began dancing, and narrated her experience of how the Almighty God came and touched her lips and warned her to keep her mouth shut.
- Father, too many received serious warnings, for human beings are guilty of speaking evil of things they know not as if they are the repository of all knowledge because they do not know Your ways. They do not know that You are Paradox.
- Anybody You want to know You, will know You. Anybody You do not want, will never know You. No wonder You have chosen to hide Yourself. From of old till today, You have remained in hiding, only revealing Yourself to the handpicked minority You called Your Elect.
- Father, THANK YOU for counting us worthy to be in that number– the heavenly-bound group.
- Father, we THANK YOU this first day of the week. What a wonderful privilege we are enjoying by Your grace and not by our power. It is not by our merit.
- We are not, in any other way, better than any other human being. We have not done anything appreciable, only that You decided aforetime to include us in the number You will save by grace.
- [Oh!] You decided to raise a people You will not input any sin upon. A people You will justify by their faith in You. A people You will have strong hold around and will never let them go.
- Father, please maintain Your firm grip on us. Never permit our ears, our eyes, our senses to deceive us. Help us learn to believe in You, for when You speak, Your Word goes forth and whatever You say goes forth and can never come back to You void [Father] until it has accomplished the purpose for which You spoke that Word.
- You have already spoken good concerning your children. You have decreed woe to the hypocrites among us. You have brought us to a point where we cannot veer off the track again, for we are more than convinced.
- We are convicted even by our consciences, for any attempt to say no or try to deny the truth, our consciences will never set us free.
- Father, we are sure and certain that we have met the only one and true God. The Deity is in our midst, and He has become our righteousness, the Almighty God, the only righteous God.
- In Your righteousness, we stand and not in our own because You have removed the accuser of the Brethren which is that written law of Moses, and which our consciences can never erase if not by Your enabling help. Our minds, our consciences and our senses cannot erase it.
- And that is why we plead with You. If there be any human being drawn from among Your people, who is desirous of serving you in spirit and in truth, but is still hounded about by the spirit of that ancient serpent– the brazen serpent, tell the person that you are no longer there and that you are now in THE SON OF MAN, for as that serpent was lifted up in the wilderness, and the time for it expired when Christ appeared, tell that person that is holding something that is expired and is likely to take him to hell, for the son of man has been lifted up. There is none like Him.
- Hence, we say alleluia to His Holy Name. That is the promised Messiah of the end time. That is He that was promised that will ride this trail for the last time, uniting all the loose ends, presenting Christ, the only one and supreme God to the entire human race.
- No matter the denomination you belong to and no matter what you think you are, You never brought yourself into existence. You belong to God and God belongs to you. He formed you in your mother’s womb. He brought you into existence.
- Do not allow the talent He gave you to deceive you. There is no salvation in the talent, but there is salvation [eternal life] in obeying the truth and in living according to His commands.
- To God be the glory now and forever more.
- Father, we bow down as we reverence You this day, as we honour and adore you.
- All we have been testifying, they are all we witnessed. Just in part, we cannot testify of all from the beginning till the end. No! You have done great things among us that no human being born of a woman can stand and enumerate all. Never!
- Our testimonies concerning You are according to truth. We do not exaggerate. Neither do we lie. What does it profit us to tell lies? Are we seeking converts? Are we seeking disciples? Are we seeking followership? Are we seeking popularity?
- If we seek popularity, we would not be locking up our gates and our doors and staying as small as we are.
- We are a favoured group to have been given that grace to belong to Your Super Family – the Invisible Union of the Bride drawn from the four corners of the earth.
- Father, we say THANK YOU. If we have anything to offer than THANK YOU, Father, we will offer it from our hearts. We are rejoicing that our sins have been taken care of.
- SONG: [The grace of God has set me free from sins and sorrows. The grace of God has set me free.]
- Sure! It is by Your grace, for the Holy Qur’an made it clear by our Prophet Muhammad Raheem [pbuh], “Allah will forgive anyone He wants to forgive. Anybody he does not want to forgive, He will never forgive”, and nobody drags Him to court.
- In the same way, Allah will save anyone He wants to save. If He does not want to save, he will not save. Nobody drags Him to court. Complaining and murmuring and grumbling and demonstrating against Him means mere dissipation of your human energy.
- If you drag Him to court, who will arrest the Almighty God? Who will prosecute His case? Who will be your witness that will testify against Him and succeed?
- We make noise because He has permitted us to stay alive. What if we slept and we did not rise up this morning? Will we be complaining? Will we be murmuring? Will we be grumbling. Will you remember you lived yesterday? Never!
- Where is Brother James Nnaemeka? Can he remember anything? Memories are gone. They are past. All references to him are now past. We can now say, “Once upon a time, we had a precious Brother, an Elder like Him, but it is all a testimony.”
- But we are happy. We are saying THANK YOU LORD, for You took him home as a Saint not as a sinner. You cleansed him. You washed him. You sanctified him. You marked him with Your mark of ownership.
- He worshipped You in spirit and in truth. He revered Your Most Holy Name. He was always obedient, age notwithstanding. He was never rebellious. Never! A happy worshipper. A self-sacrificing worshipper. For Your sake, he is being hated by his people, the heathens.
- Father, what can we say if not, may all glory, honour, praise, adoration be ascribed to You alone for giving him eternal rest in the Cave of Shelters. Father, we say THANK YOU.
- Death does not move us. Our major concern is our state when we are dying. Grant O LORD that in life or in death, we shall be found in You, not holding our own self-achieved or acclaimed or supposed righteousness which is just false, for we are as guilty as any other man on the street, but You have decided to show us unmerited favour.
- Hence, we do not boast. Since it is a gift You will give to anybody You want to give, nobody forces You to give him a gift. So may we never boast of what we think we are. May we boast of what You have decided to make us, for You have decided to make us holy in Your own eyes without a single fault because of what Christ will do for us.
- And Christ has been revealed in our day, bearing our infirmities in His flesh and in His spirit.
- Hence, in the Godhead where You connected all that belong to You, we saw no other person but the Deity. Only one person. When You revealed Your Majesty, we saw only one person. You revealed the Shekinah, Father, Your Deity, the Adonai, we saw one Man, not two.
- When you revealed the wife, we saw one woman, not two in the Congregation. What else can we say? She has become the ambassador for the women and their children. And the man has become Your ambassador, Your representative for all men. What else do we need?
- Father, we say THANK YOU. This morning, we are only here to celebrate You as we commit into Your holy hands, Your nation Israel.
- Of all the nations in the world, only Israel You made Your own nation. To the rest, you gave them supervising angels or Ministers, governors, presidents and so on. But to Israel, You are their Superintendent.
- You entered into an everlasting covenant with Israel using their fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, not excluding [O God] the first son, Ishmael who served in Kaaba. Together with Father Abraham, they built that Mosque in Mecca. And there they served You 18 years before Isaac was born.
- You were also in his own Mosque as he was in Your own. He made a mistake in marriage. You told him to divorce those women and he did. You gave him the wife that served him.
- You blessed him. You blessed his brother Isaac. The two never quarreled for one day. When You died, the Bible said, “The first son of Abraham – Ishmael and his junior brother – Isaac joined hands and gave him a befitting burial under the oak of Mamre” as recorded clearly O God.
- We are not among those that misplace the truth and distort the truth for base gain.
- THANK YOU, O Father of all Creations. The same way You blessed Isaac in Jacob and blessed Jacob in Isaac, You crossed your hands the same way we know You for a man, the only God that is an expert in crossing Your hands.
- You taught Jacob to cross his hands. If Jacob never crossed his hands, we would not be Israelis in the Gentiles. To Your Name belongeth the glory, the honour and the praise.
- There was no way the first son of Joseph would have crossed over to the Gentiles if You had not crossed Your hands. Your left hand became Your right hand, and Your right hand became Your left. Oh no!
- What if You never crossed Your hands between Esau and Jacob when You had already said, “Esau I hate; Jacob I love that My main purpose and election might stand sure”?
- If You never crossed Your hands, there would not be Edom. There would not be anything Esau, but because You crossed Your hands, Esau became a blessing in Jacob, and Jacob became a blessing in Esau. Father, we give You the glory, for without Esau, there are no Gentiles. Father, we thank You.
- You are now visiting Israel again. You saw the war, You went there and You saw things for Yourself. You came back and announced it to the remnant of Your people here.
- Now it has become evidently clear that all Your children – the Jews – In all the countries have been perfectly besieged with perfect hatred and even discriminated against.
- Even here in Nigeria, there is no exemption. We know we are the children of Eri. We are the children of Eri. We are the Schecken igbo. We know what we are passing through.
- Even our brother there, Nnamdi Kanu, is suffering persecution. He is being persecuted because of his tribe and because of his belief. So all of us are. Yes! This is because we are sure and certain of what is happening.
- And now, You are no longer keeping quiet. Father, You have risen up from Your Throne. Continue to rise up everyday. Let Your enemies be scattered, discomfited, confounded and defeated.
- Never hand over Your nation [Father] to heathens that know You not, who boast in their arms and ammunition, who boast in their power, who boast in their wealth, who boast in their connection to the rest of the world, but Israel is boasting with the Name of Jehovah – the God of Israel.
- The entire world is afraid of Israel because of the God they have. The God of Israel is not a secret God. He has been fighting battles and winning battles.
- You tortured Egypt. You tortured Babylon. You tortured Persia. You tortured all the countries that afflicted your people. Nobody has ever defeated Your people. You have always been there.
- Now, the die is cast. The long-awaited Armageddon is here at last. No going back! Stand up O God. Sit down no more. Marshal out Your Hosts of angels. Make a speedy riddance upon the whole earth and upon all the inhabitant of the earth. Let them feel the indignation of Your fury and Your wrath as You defend Your Name.
- You said You must save them – all that belong to Israel. For Your Name’s sake, do not forget Your Israel in the Gentiles, for which cause the son of man came to bring them back, that there be one Fold and one Shepherd. Join the two together and they will be one stick in Your hand. Ephraim and Manasseh and all their descendants are here.
- Dan is here. Even Zebulun is here. Father, gather them wherever You scattered them. Some have gone back, while some are still here. Remember all for good and not for evil.
- Remember, we have taken our own fair share of the troubles here. Now that it is raging there because they forsook You. They hated the truth in You. They crucified You. They forced You out of their borders. And from that day, peace eluded all the borders of Israel.
- And right now, peace is about to be restored. Why? When we were excommunicated from the Garden of Eden, we were in the loins of our forefather Adam and our foremother Eve.
- Now that they are going to be restored, we are going to be restored in them together with all that proceeded from them from their righteous branch.
- LORD! Rise up! Equip Yourself. Equip Your soldiers. Equip all that are fighting the cause of Christ.
- Others are fighting for their own political gains. Israel is fighting for the promise God made unto them long long time ago, covenanted it with their fathers.
- Stand behind Your people as You have always been doing. Even if there is one man left there, let him remain there standing without denying You. Victory is assured.
- You will remain our God, for You said in the Scriptures, “Blessed is any nation, blessed is any human being, any family that has the God of Israel as their God.”
- By the Shekinah presence [Father] in our midst, we do not need a Prophet to tell us who we are. The ancient Cloud is here. We know Who is with us. You are with us. Victory is assured.
- Strengthen Your people by day and by night. Forestall all the moves from the heathens. Do not allow the daughters of the heathen, the Philistines or the Palestine’s to go on the streets to rejoice over Your people. Never permit it to happen. The uncircumcised to begin to shout with joy that they have won Your people? Never permit it to happen.
- Save Your people for Your Name’s sake. Go all out for war. Let nothing restrain Your hands again. A speedy riddance is what You promised to make upon the earth. And when You start it, You will put an end to it, that the residue of men that will survive will say, “Of a truth, this is the finger of the Almighty LORD.”
- Father, therein we make our case this morning. And we would not like to pray again concerning this. The Word that goeth forth and the prayer goeth forth, making intercession from no other person but the Chosen Vessel bearing Your Name in this generation – the Hidden Messiah.
- THANK YOU because I know You have given Me a listening ear. Throughout this week, You know what has occupied My mind as My prayers. SAVE ALL YOUR CHILDREN TO THE UTMOST.
- Restore all backsliders in the spirit. Are there some that are on the brink of falling away, steady them with Your steady staff which is Your Word.
- Let every family [O God] blossom. Even in the time of this hardship, may they never complain of hunger. May they live in plenty in the time of scarcity. Prove to the entire world [Father] that we belong to You and to You alone.
- This morning, a Word from You is enough. All we need from You is to create more faith in us. Create abiding faith in us. Explain what faith is all about so that with the knowledge we acquire, our faith will rest there, not on creed; not on dogma; not on money and not on anything, but the engrafted Word of God that will never fail and will never disappoint.
- To the glory and honour of Your most Holy Name, we give the praise for hearing and answering us, for to You alone belongeth [O God] the Cloud which is the Shekinah – the Divinity.
- To You alone [O LORD Of hosts] belongeth the Godhead which is the Deity. To You alone belongeth the Original Body – the fullness of the Deity which is the Majesty.
- With these three indisputable attributes and even more present in all the Assemblies of Your Saints, we say, “You are welcome. Have Your way in us.”
- THANK YOU for answering our prayers. As You promised that there shall be a canopy of Cloud in every Assembly of Your people throughout the whole world – throughout all the Ages, let it be according to Your Word of promise.
- Whether that person is standing alone as an individual in that foreign land, in that high sea, in the air, beneath the earth– wherever they are found as individuals, as families, as friends clustering together, praying together, for the sake of that Elect, let that Shekinah be there.
- Let the Shekinah make a demarcation, a difference between those that belong to You and those that belong to the world.
- To the glory and honour of Your Most Holy Name, we pray. Amen.
26Our eyes are now on the Net, to see if there be a woman, if there be a family that will be privileged to have one, bearing the sign. If there be a woman, a Church, a family, kingdom having a man who is holding the word, bearing the sign, one who is holding the voice, one who is here, although we are seeing Him as a man, He is being wrapped around with something which eyes cannot see. 27Any moment we succeed in getting a family, a Church, a group of people having this man, who cannot be found in sin, who cannot play with His words, who is vindicated with this Shekinah Cloud around Him, who is not taking us back to the old genealogy, but opening our eyes to something we can call new doctrines, One we can still look back on the scene, all we have to do is to say glory be to God, for our problem is solved. 28If anybody is perishing, it is because he does not want to hear Him. If any man is going to hell, it is because he does not want to hear Him. But all that will be saved must surely be gladdened.

BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH, Preached on 8th June 1997 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 61 vs. 26-28

LET US EMULATE CHRIST
SONG: [Who can be likened unto Thee? No one! No one! Who can be likened unto Thee. No one like You.]
- We cannot thank God enough. I say, be seated. We cannot thank God enough. We can never thank God enough for saving us from His wrath and from the wrath of men.
- That we are still matching in faith without staggering and without falling, that goes to show the abundance of revelation we have received from Him. Hence, what others will see and stop, we see it and continue our journey. What moves people does not move us.
- If you have not come to that particular level, up till this morning, let Me say that this morning is for you because of the sake of the infants here and the parents that are still dangling.
- It is not the number of years you have stayed in the fellowship that determines the level of your faith. You may be here from December 30, 1992, but uptill this day, you have never acquired faith from God– Faith for salvation– Faith for healing– Faith for anything.
- Instead of your faith resting on God, your faith is resting on signs because maybe you think you have acquired education. Can you acquire education more than Sigmund Mowinckel?
- I mean, the man who conducted are search and concluded that there is Almighty God, and that Almighty God is the son of man. A professor of theology, starting from ancient manuscripts. That was the conclusion.
- Watch the number of people, commentaries and those that were countering and supporting and everything. Opinions were many based on researches, but at the end of the day, all of them collectively came together to give a summary of their findings. Go there and see. So there is no need beating about the bush.
- Let us now summarize everything. It boils down to the fact that God exists. And in our own generation, He is the son of man. So He has chosen, to rig away all human intellect.
- So, Prophet Elijah Muhammad was right and is still right and will remain right. You better not expect the corporal coming of the LORD Jesus Christ again. Rather expect the coming of the person He promised that will come after Him. And He is no other person but the son of man.
- References: [1] MESSAGE TO THE BLACK MAN IN AMERICA by Prophet Elijah Muhammad as published in 1965; Chapter 1 verse 11 through 13. 11… For the past 6,000 years, the prophets have been predicting the coming of God who would be just and righteous. This righteous God would appear at the end of the world (the world of the white race).
- 12Today, the God of Truth and Righteousness is making Himself manifest, that He is not anymore a mystery (unknown), but is known and can be seen and heard the earth over. This teaching of a mystery God enslaves the minds of the ignorant. My poor people are victims of every robbery.
- They are so pitifully blind, deaf and dumb that it hurts, but I am going to prove to them that I am with Allah (God) and that Allah is with me, in spite of their ignorance of Allah and myself, whom He has sent.
- For I am not self-sent and the world shall soon know who it is that has sent me. Allah (God) loves us, the so-called Negroes (Tribe of Shabazz,) so that He will give lives for our sake today.
- Fear not, you are no more forsaken. God is in person, and stop looking for a dead Jesus for help, but pray to Him whom Jesus prophesied would come after Him. He who is alive and not a spook.
- Do you hate me because I represent Allah, the Living God, your Lord and my Lord? Can you, who believe in a mystery God (unknown), trust your Mystery to bring you bread or to defend you against your open enemies? If so, on what occasion did He help you?
- 13If God is a mystery, you are lying to the world when you say that you know Him. He wants to be known, it is His enemy (the devil) who does not want God to be known to you and me. Do you refer to God as He, Him! These pronouns refer to a man. Do you say that you want to be like Him. Surely, you don’t want to be a spirit without form, as spirits have no material form. Your God and my God is a material Being-the Supreme of Beings.
- Chapter 6 verses 2 through 4. 2You must forget about ever seeing the return of Jesus, Who was here 2,000 years ago. Set your heart on seeing the One that He prophesied would come at the end of the present world’s time (the white race’s time). 3He is called the “Son of Man,” the “Christ,” the “Comforter.”
- You are really foolish to be looking to see the return of the Prophet Jesus. It is the same as looking for the return of Abraham, Moses and Muhammad. All of these prophets prophesied the coming of Allah or one with equal power, under many names.
- You must remember that Jesus could not have been referring to Himself as returning to the people in the last days. He prophesied of another’s coming who was much greater than He. Jesus even acknowledged that He did not know when the hour would come in these words; “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” (Matt. 24:36).
- 4If He were the one to return at the end of the world, surely He would have had knowledge of the time of His return, the knowledge of the hour. But He left Himself out of that knowledge and placed it where it belonged, as all the other prophets had done.
- No one has been able to tell us the hour of the judgment. No one but He, the great all wise God, Allah. He is called the “Son of Man,” the “Mahdi”, the “Christ”. The prophets, Jesus included, could only foretell those things which would serve as signs, signs that would precede such a great one’s coming to judge the world. The knowledge of the hour of judgment is with the Executor only.
- [2]Tafsir Araisul Bayan, Vol. 1, p. 262.Before pondering over these traditions of the Holy Prophet, peace be upon him, regarding the advent of the Messiah and Mahdi, it must be kept in view that the Holy Quran as well as the traditions of the Holy Prophet are unanimous in their verdict that Jesus, son of Mary, has died his natural death. Further, the Holy Quran and the traditions of the Holy Prophet both are in unison that the dead never return to life in this transitory world of ours. Hence, when it is narrated in the traditions that Jesus son of Mary will come, it should not be taken literally but rather to be understood in the metaphorical sense as has been interpreted by a scholar of great repute and regenerator of his century, Mohyyud Din Ibn Arabi, when he says: “His descent in later ages will be with a DIFFERENT body.”
- [3] KNOWING YOUR STATUS IN CHRIST; Preached by THE VERY SON OF MAN on Sunday 9th September 2010 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 62 vs. 2 & Pg. 65 vs. 5. If you do not know where we are, better know it now. We are talking about the Resurrected Body. I believe that it is the same Resurrected body that is still in our midst, talking to us and giving us the Word of life. ……. Of a truth, we have seen nothing yet. Remember the Message we are considering is THE RESURRECTED BODY. Have I not been telling you that I do not preach the crucified Christ? I am preaching the Christ that arose from death and not the one that was crucified and He will remain alive forever and ever for He holds the key to Hell and Heaven.
- If you have not come to the revelation that God is in our midst, you are a mocker. YOU ARE A SCOFFER. You are here to hide your wickedness. And what is on right now must expose you and take you to where you belong to.
- That is why the only spirit that governs the children of God is the Spirit of Christ and not the spirit of their community.
- If you are here being governed and administered by your community spirit, the spirit of Christ can never be in you. And it is the spirit of Christ in you that makes you a child of God, for if any does not have the spirit of Christ, he or she does not belong to God.
- No Scripture, no manuscript – ancient or new – ever said that it is the spirit of Christ plus the spirit of your community. It does not exist anywhere. It is not the Spirit of Christ plus the spirit of human being or your own spirit? No!
- Rather, He said that your spirit must be in agreement with the spirit of Christ in You, bearing witness in you that you belong to God and to God alone because you have already sworn your oath of allegiance like Elder James did.
- REFERENCE: Romans 9:1, AMP.I AM speaking the truth in Christ. I am not lying; my conscience [enlightened and prompted] by the Holy Spirit bearing witness with me
- Look at Elder James and see the testimony following his death. His life first. Life first before death. I say, life came first. Death came to bring him back. Then in the end, life will manifest eternally.
- Watch the testimonies following his departure. No negative confessions. Was he in the pulpit? No! was he a Pastor in charge? No! Tell Me anything you can say he contributed.
- By your own assessment, you see nothing, but the son of man saw great contributions. A motivator but people could not emulate him. A self-sacrificing worshipper.
- Ordinary kolanut he offered was valued more than more millions of naira you receive from this and that with impure hearts.
- Often times you give because you know you have for you to give or because you do not want to be ridiculed. People know you have. And because of that if you do not give they will be talking evil of you. They better be talking evil of you. Withhold it. Do not give it out, and then go to hell with it.
- When you go to hell, begin there to invest it. Share it in hell to those who will be willing to collect it from you in hell where you will see nobody and nobody will see you. Gross darkness will envelope all of you. You hear voices only. You do not see any human being. Nobody sees you. You do not see anybody. You are all under torment.
- That which is difficult for you to forfeit it here, you will forfeit it in hell. Did you get the Message?
- No child of God forfeits right living here. And that right living ushers you into Paradise where right living will be till eternity because he has already inculcated a habit, a norm and a culture that cannot be denied of him.
- Are you hearing Me? We better speak the truth in love.
- If you do not inculcate the spirit of worship – spiritual worship –in spirt and in truth here, and you die, you will not get it in hell. You are perishing.
- If you have a religious spirit – that is political spirit –I say, political spirit, always liking to showcase yourself and making yourself public, you will be popular here and popular in hell. And in hell, nobody will notice your popularity, for you are existing alone.
- So, whatever you want to be is what you are here. If you know that thing which you want to be in the hereafter, begin now to be that thing this morning because you do not know where you are stopping your journey and how.
- You may know everything but do you know how many days God has arranged for you to enjoy? Do you know?
- That morning Elder James went to work. In the evening, while he was coming back, he felt hungry. He purchased a small loaf of bread with a bottle of Coke. He took all of them together in that shop.
- By the time he got to his yard, his stomach was swollen. He started losing strength. He ate to have energy, but after eating, the energy drained. Even the energy he had drained. He could not breathe in and out again. He started struggling with breathing.
- Has he satisfied the hunger? Yes! The hunger is satisfied and he lost his life. Would it not have been better for him to have continued going home to drink water at home and live than to eat that small loaf of bread which is maybe about fifty-naira worth with a bottle of Coke? And that was the end of the journey.
- You may know every thing but you would not know where you will die, and you would not know what will kill you.
- Did anybody poison him? No! If there was anything that poisoned him, it was his desire to eat and the money he used to buy the bread and Coke.
- Be very careful. We have had two incidents. Remember what happened to our late Elder, Paul Agubalu. Although it was kept secret, but it was revealed at last.
- From that time it was revealed, the wife was having difficulty staying with us because she could have avoided it.
- Remember what happened to Deacon Joshua Akpe. Although it was a secret, the wife came and revealed the secret and asked the daughter to stay away. The daughter left My house, and she knelt down and opened up to My wife then.
- My wife cried out her eyes and then asked her, “Sister, why did you do that? And all along we have been talking and you had the effrontery to be moving about, collecting money from people as if your husband died. Why?”
- And when she left, evil spirit possessed her the more. She became more and more murderous.
- Be very careful everybody. Where you think you will go and live is where you will go and die. That thing which you think is life will turn out to be death. Did you get the Message?
- Let us be very careful. If I say, be very careful, what do I mean? Let us emulate Christ fully – total surrender. That is Islam – total submission to God.
- Do not submit totally when you die. If you never submitted totally to God when you are alive, and you die, you were submitting to the devil when you were alive. In death, devil will lay claim over you whether you like it or not, for you served his interest in the name of Christ.
- You can be here calling the Name of God, but fulfilling the wishes of the devil. You are calling the Name of Christ so that we know you as oneof us.
- When you die or when trouble comes, we come your way, but you know who you are.You know whose interest you are serving.
- This is why I severed a handpicked minority that will be with Me here to reduce My headache to the barest minimum. But unfortunately, I have not succeeded. I am still seeing figments of unbelief. What they do not believe is what beats My imagination.
- If you have come to the point where you believe that which suits your convenience, you believe in yourself, in your money and in your everything, you are doomed.
- you will receive the greatest curse from this family worship because the elohim himself is here. you are the greatest mocker and scoffer.
- If coming to God, you claim to be good when you are inwardly bad and out there in your families, you are still giving sanctions contrary to the will of God, even sanctions that God never authorized, give yourself a name.
- Get me that Living Bible, Amplified version and others. Let Me read the Scripture I read to the Elders yesterday, but I know that the Elders I mean are those that are here with Me here now.
- I think I have two of them here now, but the remaining two are in their families battling like Ifeanyi Eze battled. And battled till he died. For they are having the same problem Ifeanyi Eze had.
- Pray that you will not have that type of a problem, for nobody has that problem and remains steadfast with his belief. Only amazing grace saved Ifeanyi Eze the Bishop.
Who had a close insight into the hour? The Resurrected Body. Who is feeding us with this Truth? The Resurrected Body. Who has the ability to fish out criminals from amongst us? The Resurrected Body. Who has the Power to separate the sheep from the goat? The Resurrected Body. Who knows who is who in the Bride? The Resurrected Body. ……. Why not behave like The Son of Man. I never prepared My wife for one day. Rather, I helped her to know the Truth by subjecting her to lifestyles that were alien to her, to teachings that were unknown to her, aiming at getting her roughly grounded, knowing that I was making a far journey with her, so that her real colour must come out. I knew nothing about The Bridal Faith. I knew nothing about the End-time. BUT I WAS HIGHER THAN ALL THE PENTECOSTALS. I never wanted her to suffer the Pentecostal level because that was a rubbish level.

IF YOU ARE FOR CHRIST, BE FOR CHRIST ALONE
- When we are reading, pay attention to the version we are reading until we come to your own version. Open your own. Keep it open, but do not read it.
- Pay attention to the version of the Scripture we are reading. When we come to your own, you join us, but give your ear, your heart and your mind to what we are reading.
- Romans 2:1-3, TLB. [1]“Well,” you may be saying, “what terrible people you have been talking about!” … You may be saying so.
- …But wait a minute! You are just as bad. … You yourself, you are just as bad as those people we are referring to.…When you say they are wicked and should be punished, you are talking about yourselves,… You are doing what? You are talking about yourself because you are also wicked and should be punished.
- …for you do these very same things.[2]And we know that God, in justice, will punish anyone who does such things as these.[3]Do you think that God will judge and condemn others for doing them and overlook you when you do them, too?
- Romans 2:1-3, AMP.1THEREFORE YOU have no excuse or defense or justification, O man, whoever you are who judges and condemns another. For in posing as judge and passing sentence on another, you condemn yourself, because you who judge are habitually practicing the very same things…
- Not only practicing, but you are habitually practicing the same things for which you are judging and condemning others.
- …you who judge are habitually practicing the very same things [that you censure and denounce]. …
- Censure and denounce because you have seen it in others. But you do not censure yourself. You do not denounce it in yourself and in your life.
- Check the reason why Jesus was crucified. Was it not because he was censured by the law of the Jews? The Jews who found Him guilty of their law and worthy of death, was there anyone that obeyed it?
- They did not obey it, but they were all out looking for somebody who will disobey it because they were Pharisees and Sadducees and Scribes – Teachers of the law.
- What did they use to crucify Him? Was it not their law? What was the accusation? By our law you refused to obey, you ought to die.
- What are you using today to accuse people of sin? Find out. If you are not using the religious law, you are using your customary law – your traditional law, your village law which the LORD Jesus Christ met in the Book of Mark chapter 7 from verse 7.
- He saw it also. He said full well, “You know how to set aside the Word of God so that you can flaunt, disregard and flagrantly disobey the Word of God, so that the customs and traditions of your people will be exalted.
- A clever way of elevating and using the customs of your people, their culture and their tradition against the people. Even if they are not resident or members of your own community, you will like to use the laws of your community against foreigners.
- Foreigners that should be completely excluded from the laws, cultures and traditions of a people. Why should you use it on them again?
- If you must use it on them, it then means that they must inherit every right and privilege of members, residents and owners of that community.
- You deny them their rights of inheritance, right of heritage to your property, to your land, to your wives and so on, but you punish them using the same laws of your people. Injustice!
- If I am from Nsukka, the laws of Nsukka will affect Me. But if I am from Mbaise and resident in Nsukka, the laws are not for Me. They were not meant for Me.
- That is why the Bible said, “All these laws of Moses were not meant for us whom Christ has saved. We are in Christ. They are not for us anymore.”
- To those who have denied the cross of Christ because of its offence, the law still holds sway over them. Their traditional heritage– they inherit property. They inherit assets. They will inherit liabilities.
- That is why anybody who says that he is in Christ and in the faith of the son of man, but he is afraid of flaunting his village tradition is still in the hand of the devil. I say, he is still in the hand of the devil. I say, he is still a hypocrite! He may not profess it with his mouth, but with his spirit.
- As we worship God in spirit and in truth, so he obeys his village tradition, rules and regulations in his spirit. If he has the opportunity to step out, he will then faze out.
- Otherwise, that person would have gone home to condemn it before his people as Brother James did. I mean, Elder James did it.
- I do not need to talk of Myself. I am naked before all of you. Can anybody think of bringing back that old, useless, carnal nonsense for idolatry?
- To many people, they see it as something impossible. But have they, for one day, fought against it? Many have their faith only when they are in the township. When they get home, they are a part of their people.
- Look at the testimony following Elder James. Their people said they denounced them, denied them and embraced his faith in Christ.
- Have you denounced your people? Have you denied them? Have you come to the point where you will say, “Even if they do not want to bury me when I die, government will bury me anyhow” like the son of man.
- Have you ever sat them down, lashed them, even those that are hardening them with political and religious junks. Have you ever [I mean] written something credited to you and signed by you like we were told to write when we were at Amazu?
- We wrote to our people through the traditional rulers and village heads. James Nnaemeka did it. That was what the boy was quoting, that he wrote them a letter denouncing them, telling them what he will do and what he will not do. I did it. Kelechi Uwakwe and so on, we all did it.
- We told them our limitations, but concerningthe development of our communities, we will help within our capacities like building of schools and colleges, construction of roads, building of town halls, electricity and water projects.
- Anything rural amenities, we will do that, but anything that has to do with the worshipping of their gods, shrines or building of their churches, count us out. We documented all.
- My own was stamped by His Royal Highness Eze R. U. Mbalewe who is now late, but former General Manager SCOA Motors West Africa, Ezeoha 1 Uvuru Ikedinairi.
- He stamped My own and stamped that of My wife. And he issued us our marriage certificate which I tendered to all of you. They are there with you. When I went to Awka probate, I went with a copy. Pastor Chizoba, you saw it. I tendered it. I am not a hypocrite. I live by My Faith. What I preach is what I practice.
- I say like saint Paul, “Because I believe, so I preach. Follow Me as I follow Christ. Imitate Me.”
- I am harbouring too many hypocrites who believe in their traditions and cultures. In this era and 21st century, people are still going to native doctor’s house to ask about things and to foretell things for them – fortune-tellers, necromancers.
- They are people going for divinations. Is it not a shameful thing for somebody to be consulting mediums, divinations, necromancers, magicians, soothsayers, and still holding the Bible and professing godliness? Who are you deceiving?
- Some will even empower their parents in their homes to do those things for them. I am telling you the truth. They will tell you, “Our Father went to one shrine in our community, and he told us what the shrine told him.”
- You now believe your father. You believe the shrine. You now believe the devil. Can the devil give a good record or account about God?
- Present a child of God to the shrine, the shrine will like to own that child. The shrine will tell you, “Ah! She is my daughter; She is Ogbanje” so that you bring money, bring goat and bring this and that.
- How dare you go to the devil to enquire about who a child of God is and who is not, what God should do and what God should not do. And you believe that person?
- Many of you are guilty. I am not owing you any apology. Though you are small here, you are mighty. You know who you are. You know the various ways you are doing your own.
- What is the modern idolatry? It has shifted away from shrines to science. God knew that a day is coming when knowledge and science will increase, and people’s allegiance will move away from God to science because it is attached to academic education.
- REFERENCE: Daniel 12:4, TLB.[4]“But Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal it up so that it will not be understood until the end times, when travel and education shall be vastly increased!”
- They now believe science more than God. And that is why it is failing them. Yet, they cannot see it. How many aero planes are crashing because of failure in science? How many trains are crashing? How many human beings are we losing everyday?
- What can you say about the computer age? People now think that computer is God. Some call it wizard. Whatever you like, call it. Computer was a handiwork of one man.
- One man invented it, which is knowledge. One man put the microchips together. Then, the rest came and began expanding it. Is it not what is happening?
- How can it replace God? Today, whatever computer says, they believe it to be true, but there are too many things computer cannot show you. Is there any lie greater than computer?
- The one you can use is your handset. The lying instrument that is fooling the world today is your handset. True or false? Small in appearance but mighty in action.
- If you do not know all these things, you will fool yourself. I am telling you God’s truth. If you rely on science, you are perishing. This is because God had earlier warned about science before you came into existence.
- REFERENCE: 1 Timothy 6:20-21, KJV. O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: which some professing have erred concerning the faith.
- So, knowledge can destroy you because you do not belong to Christ. When you belong to Christ, you surrender everything you are made of into Christ’s hands. He knows how to use them, put them in order and in a way and manner that will not be destructive to you and to people around you.
- There are many that have already concluded to go to hell, but the problem they are having is that they do not want to go to hell alone. They want their wives, their children and every member of their family to join them to hell.
- Do you not know that what I am saying is true. I know too many pastors that insisted that their father, their mother and everybody must follow them to the church.
- Go to Assemblies of God in My hometown. They baptize even a dead man today. Somebody died in the morning, and pastor came and baptized him so that they will claim ownership of that person, conduct the burial and collect the money thereof, now announce him as a saint heading to hell. They will be rejoicing that pastor blessed him with olive oil.
- Madness everywhere! I want you to see the stage where we are.
- If you are for Christ, be for Christ alone. Do not look back. I say, do not look back. do not have a second thought. Do not have a second thought.
- There is nothing in this life that has a guarantee of eternal life other than strict obedience to the Word of God. Finish! It is not obeying God, plus. It is not obeying God, minus.
- How can you obey God and obey the devil? How can you be serving God and be serving the devil?
- Let Me tell you. Until your faith is made known to your people, you are not liberated.
- There are too many people among us today. What they call the Faith of Christ is that they have avoided their communities for many years. They do not go home. Yet, the thing that made them to stay has not been declared totally.
- Many are riding on the back of one who introduced them to the Faith like Pastor Chizoba. He has never for one day obtained permission from Me from his youth to go and wage the war – spiritual war – in his community.
- You know what I call spiritual war. Spiritual war! Ready to die! Stand like Okechukwu John at the village square and condemn the evils of your community.
- Stand at the village square. Use your megaphone. Call them out because you are their saviour. Otherwise, you are going to be held accountable.
- Okechukwu John stood at the village square every morning with megaphone, shouting on top of his voice and condemning their murderous acts.
- He narrated how he was joining them in killing and eating human flesh and how he denounced it. He continued shouting, condemning them.
- One day, while he stood up after prayer, the first statement he made, he heard a Voice, “Stop talking to them, for they will not believe you again.”
- Did your father not tell you this?[Bro FearGod Okechukwu replied, “He told me.”]
- It is Scriptures. A time came when the LORD told Jeremiah to stop. Declare, “O heaven and earth hear me”, and then go your way. To Ezekiel, the same thing. You think God will remain chiding forever. No!
- He [John Okechukwu] has already passed judgment, but what if at last, he becomes guilty of that sin? What will become of him? Will God spare him? He condemned them. He is guilty of it.
- Liberation spiritually is the greatest. Until you are liberatedspiritually, you can never serve God rightly. When you are liberated spiritually, all your actions will be right.
- When you do that one which is not right, your spirit will hold you guilty. It will strike you and query you, “Why?” This is because you are acting contrary to your faith, for anything that is not done according to the revelation of the Faith of Christ is sin. It is evil.
- Something is good because God said it is good. It is approved of God. it is evil because God disapproved of it.
- We have too many crafty people in our Faith. They have their cunning ways of expressing their feelings. When you begin to express your feelings as “Thus saith the LORD”, you are doomed.
- Because you want to win somebody to your side, you begin to tell lies using feelings as “Thus saith the LORD” and using feelings as revelation.
- Revelations are not feelings. Feelings are not revelations. Let us be very careful about it.
- Yesterday, many of you were here when Apostle Ojiakor came. I had already announced the birth of a new baby that was born in his family by Brother Victor Nnachor and the daughter. I announced it. A baby boy!
- I rejoiced and told Brethren that I got a news that Victor Nnachor is blessed with another baby boy. We rejoiced and thanked God.
- About two months later, they said that the wife of Victor Nnachor gave birth to a baby boy. I asked before the Brethren when we got the phone call, “How many times will she deliver?”
- They said, “This is the only one.” I had already announced this birth before Elders. Is it another one? They said, “No. As at that time, she was still pregnant.” That is what we call revelation.
- When the revelation was given to saith Paul, he was not disobedient. He did not confer with flesh and blood. Did I confer with flesh and blood? I only announced it, for it was real. Real!
- When eventually I heard that she was still pregnant, and that she has now delivered, what did she deliver? A baby boy. And the same way I got the message was the same way that news of delivery came.
- I want you to differentiate between the feelings of your mind and revelation because the devil will use your feelings to paint an apparition for you. Non-existent things will become existent because the devil has captured your feelings.
- And that is where God will say come, but the devil will tell you go. God will say come, but you will hear go. God will say, “Bring Me cup”, but you will hear, “Throw away the cup.”
- What you will hear will be countering the truth, for the devil is an expert in countering truth. When God speaks, the devil will talk to you contrary. And you will be acting contrary habitually thinking you are doing the will of God until God will prove you guilty.
- Even when He is proving you guilty, you will be annoyed. You will feel sad. A sure sign that you never proceeded from God. Sometimes, God is struggling to get you out of the hand of the devil, but you are taking delight in continuing that way.
- Stop your craftiness. Stop your subtility. If you want to serve God, serve Him in spirit and in truth. if you want to abandon Him, abandon Him in spirit and in truth.
Are you not highly favoured? Have you heard it from the Son of Man? Do not expect another second coming. It is all over. The Last Sign is on the land. I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. The Resurrected Body is here. The Original Body is here. The Artificial Body is here. The pest house is the artificial body. This is the Original Body. This is the Resurrected Body and He told you that that time He resurrected, only those that were predestinated to see Him saw Him. On the day He was caught up in the Clouds, how many people were there in the mountain? Only those that were predestinated to be at Mount Olives. When He resurrected, only a few that were destined for that purpose saw Him. Thus He said, “Now, this is your day.” Do you expect the whole world to see Him? To know that He is here. Only for the Elects. Amen.

WHO MADE YOU LORD OVER GOD’S OWN HERITAGE?
- Romans 2:1-3, AMP. 1THEREFORE YOU have no excuse or defense or justification, O man, whoever you are who judges and condemns another. For in posing as judge and passing sentence on another, you condemn yourself,…
- You see why I have always told you and I have maintained it. I take every Brother and every Sister the way I see you until I prove you otherwise. I cannot begin now to preempt what Brother will door what Sister will do. No! it is not in My blood. I am not brought up that way. I accept you for what you are to Me until you will tell Me, “Stop that. Do not take Me that way.”
- If I take you as an honest fellow, all My dealings with you will be in honesty and in love. If I begin to prove you to be a habitual liar, you are a deceiver. You are painting a false picture of what you are by making Me believe that you are a good Brother. Do you not see that My confidence has been eroded. No more!
- Each time you come before Me, I will look at you suspiciously because I have gotten you on several occasions promoting the cause of the heathens, promoting your village traditions, culture and everything above the Word of God and still embrace Me as Daddy. Are you not ridiculing Me.
- I know when you are judging Me. I know when you are ridiculing Me. I know when you have already taken some steps or decision on what you will do just to humiliate Me. I know those things.
- But you know My joy. Along the way, you will be humiliated, and your humiliation will be reported to the son of man.
- You see, that is why the Bible said, “You think you are wronging God, but you are wronging yourself.” Man’s attempt to discredit God has always ended in discrediting himself. Is it not scriptural? Have you not been witnessing it happen? Thank you!
- Romans 2:1-3, AMP. 1THEREFORE YOU have no excuse or defense or justification, O man, whoever you are who judges and condemns another. For in posing as judge and passing sentence on another, you condemn yourself, because you who judge are habitually practicing the very same things…
- You who judge, you are habitually practicing the same thing of which you are accusing your Brother and your Sister, for which cause you are bringing them under your own court – under your condemnation.
- Remember what God said. Every hypocrite establishes a court in his heart where children of God are tried.
- At GTC, did you not hear it? You have established a court in your heart where children of God will be tried. You are sitting there as a judge trying the children of God and trying God.
- That is your pre-occupation. Anybody you justify is justified. Anybody you condemn, is condemned. Who made you judge over God and over His children?
- You see! People arrogating to themselves power and authority they do not possess simply because they are gifted with the knowledge or maybe talent. They take that that is life. It is no life.
- Nobody has power and talent more than the devil. No matter your talent, you cannot be much more talented than Genun. You cannot be more knowledgeable or more inventive than Genun.
- Are you hearing Me? Elijoe! Can you hear Me. Good.
- …you condemn yourself, because you who judge are habitually practicing the very same things that you censure and denounce].
- 2[But] we know that the judgment (adverse verdict, sentence) of God falls justly and in accordance with truth upon those who practice such things.
- 3And do you think or imagine, O man, when you judge and condemn those who practice such things and yet do them yourself, that you will escape God’s judgment and elude His sentence and adverse verdict?
- Yes! It is a big question you have to answer to yourself. Is it not verse 3? Verse 4 supplied the answer. I want you to supply your own. I do not want you to go to that reply in the Bible.
- It is not the question you ask yourself that will determine what your action will be, but the answer you supply. If I allow you to read the answer that is supplied by someone else, have you supplied your own? The question is for all of us.
- Let us read from another translation. Man and woman, you are free to read, even from the Complete Jewish Bible.
- Romans 2:1-3, MSG. 1-2Those people are on a dark spiral downward. But if you think that lifts you on the high ground where you can point your fingers on others, think again. … Think again!
- An Igbo adage says that when one is pointing to another with one finger, the rest of the fingers are pointing back at him.
- …Every time you criticize someone,… Every time, anytime, anywhere you are criticizing someone,…you condemn yourself. You do what? …you condemn yourself.
- You see why God warned ahead of time on what you must meditate on. He warned that you should circumcise your tongue. Bridle your tongue. Do not be foul-mouthed. Think aright and act aright. Think aright, behave aright. Let your heart be pure.
- Anybody who is an expert in criticizing others can never have a pure heart towards God and towards men, for he is a faultfinder. Am i making sense?
- The only person that has the supreme right to find fault is God, for He alone knows what is good and what is bad.
- To you, you may be faulting your Brother or your Sister, for things that are non-existent. They exist in your brain, in your mind and in your feelings, but it is not so with those people.
- People use their feelings and imaginations against others. Do you believe it to be true? Is it not the basis of false accusation?
- And you think you have escaped, maybe because you are a Minister or you are son of man or Apostle or this and that. That is why God does not accuse any man falsely. He is a just and upright Judge. He places the cards before that person.
- Every time you criticize someone, you condemn yourself. It takes one to know one.Judgmental criticism of others is a well-known way of escaping detection in your own crimes… Have you heard it?
- Judgmental criticisms of others is a sure sign of escaping your own so that people will not know that you are doing the same thing.
- Before you know it, the accuser will bring cutlass calling for the head of the person he is falsely accusing. What has he achieved in our congregation? In short, this is the type of persons that spoil our gathering. And you think that this brazen accuser is in any way innocent.
- One of your Elders who is guilty of it has never been having rest with Me. He comes here every morning with them, but not to enjoy his meeting with Me. He comes joyfully, but he leaves sorrowfully. So it will be until he amends his ways and then puts his family in order, for he is the one deceiving his family and accusing them of unbelief.
- I have accused him before the Elders. I minced no words. You do not tell Me that your wife is this and that. You are worse than your wife. You misled your wife.
- When you give a misleading impression, have you not misled the person? But you are giving Me the impression that your hands are clean, your arms clean, your legs clean and your buttocks clean, when you are the dirtiest human being outside. And you know you are dirty.
- It is better you respect yourself. I say, better respect yourself, knowing that we have only but one God – one Judge – who is father of us all and who does not judge with respect of persons.
- But when you kneel down, you make confessions to God. You tell God that you are guilty. You tell God everything you have done in secret because He caught you.
- But when you come before your family, before your friends and well-wishers, you pretend that you have never tasted sugar before when sugar is melting in your mouth on a daily basis. Is there any hypocrisy greater than that?
- Remember, I am running a purged Church. This is a purged Church. You must purge yourself of every unbelief and every sign of wickedness. It is a sign of wickedness for Me to condemn somebody who is better than Me.
- Look at Judah. Judah impregnated his first son’s wife and came out to condemn the woman for she flouted their law. He never knew the woman had evidence against him.
- But Judah was upright in the sight of God, in that when the elders had gathered to stone the woman to death, she presented the evidence.
- Judah stood up, being a king, he said, “Oh! My people, I am sorry. I cannot lie against my conscience. This thing belongs to me. I have been looking for it. Look at where I lost it. She is right in all she said. I am sorry to have condemned one who is better than me. Please spare her and spare me.”
- This is what God wants. This is what God wants. And not when you do that, you secretly confess, “God, I am a sinner. I am not worthy to be called a son. I am not even worthy to go to Fellowship”, but before your family, you will still mount the pulpit and hold them guilty of those crimes you committed. Who will take you seriously?
- Oftentimes, you do not believe that what God revealed to you, He revealed to others. If God wants to reveal you, He will not reveal you to yourself. He will reveal you to someone else. is it a lie brethren? Is it a lie Brethren?
- You know, a foolish fellow believes that he is the only one that dreams dream. When he dreams, he makes it real. He does not know that some other person equally dreams.
- Sometimes, he may not dream. He will frame up a dream. He will frame up a hypothetical situation and call it “A dream I had last night”.
- What I am telling you is pure truth. Framed up dream! Framed up vision! Some will even frame up voice and say, “The Lord spoke to me”, thereby lying against God in other to achieve selfish reasons. Selfish reasons!
- Such lies always come up when the liar wants to put his fellow human being into bondage. When you want to put a chain on the legs and hands and neck and eyes of somebody, you frame up dreams, you frame up vision and frame up audible voice.
- Some will even frame up something they will be crediting to THE SON OF MAN which I never uttered with My mouth. I might not have seen that fellow for that week, but it will be spread because he has seen a prey [victim] who will be so stupid– a slave who will believe in him or her even without verification.
- I am the Urim Thummim of the Bride. It is in the son of man that truth is verified. He that has the right to set somebody free and another, He holds guilty. He has the right to hold somebody guilty and nobody can set him free.
- If the son of man shall set you free, you are free indeed. If He holds you captive, let the whole world come to your rescue. You are doomed. Why can men not fear God?
- The Scripture said, “How men and women ought to fear God. He is an awesome God.” He is not what you think He is.
- All that usurped authority over their subordinates and over their children, maidservants and so on, do you not know that they are going to be held accountable for it?
- That is why, for every misbehaviour of My boys here, you know them, I report them to you. I bring them before you because they are entitled to fair hearing.
- I cannot just wake up and begin to slaughter them. Many times I take decisions to send them packing. Many times, I change My mind.
- Even yesterday, I called the two again and said, “You are forcing Me to do that which I hate. Your parents are weeping. They are crying because of you. And now, I will not volunteer to be killed because of you. You have decided to be a murderer by killing for no just cause. And I committed a crime for bringing you to My house to help you succeed in life– help you to be a man reasonable to yourself, your family and society. Is it My crime? Are you fending for Me? Is there anything I am gaining from you? Simply because I came all out to help out your parents, is that the crime I have committed?”
- I have read a letter this morning from one who I helped even till this day, though he paid Me back with evil, which he regretted and is still regretting. His joy is not full. He equally told Me that. He is there in the youth Fellowship.
- Every hour, he tells Me that his joy is not full until he is restored to where he was cast away, for without Me, he would not know where Onitsha is.
- I brought him. I nurtured him when he did nothing for Me. I sponsored him, sent him to the university according to My promise. Today, he is a graduate.
- I assisted in training the younger sister. Today, she is also a graduate. And she wrote it down that something they never imagined has happened.
- The reason why I tear all packages open in your presence is so that you will see whether there is time bomb there. There is no package that come shere which I will not order that it should be opened before everybody, even if it is the one you call a foolish one. It will be opened
- A sister was coming here the other day, and it fell down there and poured out so that those who were thinking she was coming in maybe to bring it to sister Amarachi or Me what we will drink or eat in Paradise, they saw what poured out.
- And it marveled them, but to Me, I received it. It poured out in My compound before many witnesses. The hand of God was there. Though the Sister was weeping, I said, “Weep not, for it is for your own good.”
- For people had already misinterpreted that act, not even weighing the smallness of the flask to know whether that flask will be enough for four persons as stew or anything inside
- Let Me tell you. A thief can steal a stick of match. He can steal a single matchstick and he will feel that he has stolen something of worth. So it is.
- An evil man thinks that everybody is as evil as himself. A crafty fellow does not trust anybody. A hypocrite thinks that everybody is like him. So that is why they are the most foolish human beings on earth.
- They do not prosper. They run around. They can never move forward because for every step they take, they are looking back. If you are looking back, are you marching forward? That is what hypocrites do.
- I am not talking to men alone. I am talking to women as well. Remember, as you make your bed, so shall you lie on that bed. So, take note of what I am saying.
Those who thought that the Man (The Resurrected Body) was An impersonator, hence they left, talking nonsense, writing petitions, and the Man kept quiet; Have you wondered why He does not reply any accusations? Rather, He told you ahead of time, “You must hear many disturbing accusations against the Son of Man. Do not defend Him. It is the mark of His calling.” He went further, “Criticize Me, if you can. I welcome both constructive and destructive criticisms. I welcome all. I do not destroy any document. Write whatever you want to write, either in favour or against Him, I will file it for you. I do not defend a lie for I know I add credibility to a lie by defending it. TIME AND EVENT WILL VINDICATE WHO I AM.” Has it come to pass? Yes sir! Time and event vindicated Him! I remember there was a Message. The Voice said, “I KNOW WHERE I AM STANDING AND MAKING THIS PROCLAMATION FOR I AM STANDING ON A ROCK THAT CAN NEVER DISAPPOINT. STANDING BEFORE ME IS SOMETHING YOUR EYES CANNOT BEHOLD.” But today, you are no longer in doubt. Are you in doubt?

INVESTIGATION COMES BEFORE JUDGMENT
- Romans 2:1-3, MSG. 1-2Those people are on a dark spiral downward. But if you think that leaves you on the high ground where you can point your finger at others, think again.[Sure!!!]
- Every time you criticize someone, you condemn yourself. It takes one to know one. Judgmental criticism of others is a well-known way of escaping detection in your own crimes and misdemeanors. … Yes!
- That is your own way– Your own thinking that if I do not stand for this like hypocritical preaching in the pulpit, thinking they are pleasing the son of man to believe that they are on His side, but they never knew that the son of man had already cast them away. They never knew.
- Some thought they will bribe the son of man with gifts, but they never knew that the gifts were thrown to the dogs and that a good number of them ended in the dustbins.
- …But God isn’t so easily diverted. … But is He diverted at all? God can never be diverted. If you think it is easy, it is not easy. You may be persistent, thinking that persistence or pressure will break resistance. That is not to God.
- There is no amount of pressure you will mount on God that will make Him to bulge. I told you that I am the solid Rock. I do not bulge. Nothing will bulge Me. I have seen 99. 100 means nothing.
- That which you will use to hold Me hostage does not exist. If it exists, it is in your mind. And that is why when you try and fail, the next thing is to fail out. When you try and fail, what will follow? You fail out. I will capitalize on your failure and throw you away and forget you completely.
- …He sees right through all such smoke screens…What?…He sees right through all such smoke screens…
- God sees right through all such smoke screens – cover-ups. All those makeups and cover-ups? God sees through them.
- Just like this morning, I was talking to FearGod. You were there. I called the two of you – Pastor Chizoba and you, Deacon Chibuko and told you, “Come and look through this window. Can you see anybody?”they said no.
- But I saw something. And the person acknowledged it. He acknowledged that I saw him because I was investigating a case.
- So, there is no amount of smoke screen you will use to cover yourself where God will not penetrate, for darkness is as bright as the day before the LORD God Almighty. Then, where will I hide myself that He will not search me out? Is there anything in me that is hidden from Him?
- The words I expressed with my mouth existed in my mind before I uttered them, but while they were there, He captured all.
- …He sees right through all such smoke screens and holds you to what you’ve done.
- You didn’t think, did you, that just by pointing your finger at others you would distract God from seeing all your misdoings and from coming down on you hard? Or did you think that because He’s such a nice God, He’d let you off the hook. Amen!!!
- It is a question. The answer is in the next verse. The answer is No! He will capture it. He will punish you for doing those things.
- Otherwise, He will tender apology to those He punished in times past. But the way of punishment He will determine for you will beat your imagination.
- IT IS IN THE POWER OF A HUMAN BEING TO SIN AGAINST GOD AND TO ERR, BUT IT IS IN THE POWER OF GOD TO GIVE HIM JUST RECOMPENSE FOR THAT SIN IN A WAY AND MANNER THAT IS PLEASING TO HIM. YOU CANNOT WRONG ME AND TELL ME HOW TO VISIT YOU IN RETALIATION. DID YOU GET THE MESSAGE?
- Iran had wronged the people of the Most High God – Israel. And they have used the whole nations including UN to know whether they can find out from Israel the way they are going to retaliate, for they know that Israel will not set them free. They will never go unpunished, but the way they are going to receive this punishment beats their imagination.
- REFERENCE:BBC News “WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT ISRAEL’S ATTACK ON IRAN” reported by Tom BennettfromLondon on 26 October 2024 and Updated 28 October 2024. Israel carried out what it described as “precise and targeted” airstrikes on Iran on Saturday, in retaliation for the barrage of strikes launched by Tehran against Israel earlier this month. …….
- Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it targeted military sites in several regions, with subsequent reports suggesting an Iranian missile production site had been hit. One civilian and four soldiers were killed in the attacks, the Iranian military said.It marks the latest in a series of attacks between the two regional foes that for months have raised fears of an all-out war. …….
- Targets comprised Iran’s air defences, missile and drone production, and launch facilities. Two researchers, analysing satellite imagery, told Reuters news agency that Israel had struck buildings in Parchin, a military complex near Tehran, and may have “significantly hampered Iran’s ability to mass produce missiles”.
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – who followed the operation from the IDF’s command and control centre in Tel Aviv – said Israel had “severely damaged Iran’s defence capability and its ability to produce missiles”.”This regime must understand a simple principle: whoever hurts us, we hurt him,” he added.”
- So it happened on October 7th last year. Hamas took it upon themselves to slaughter a people that were celebrating the exodus from Egypt in a happy merriment.
- They swooped on them and killed over 420, man and woman, young and old. UN did not even mention that. They do not regard it. Whatever that happens to the Jews, they regard as something that happened to ordinary ant. Am I making sense?
- Nobody regards children of God. we are greatly despised and rejected by this generation. True or false? But we are never forsaken by God.
- We are not forsaken by God. We are the people of the Most High God. we do those things that please Him. He is in our midst. So He is there. And so He is here. He superintends the Jews. I have joined the two [Jews and Gentiles] to the Godhead. So superintending over the Godhead is made easy.
- Watch where we are emerging at the end. The world must surely stand up for Christ. There is going to be a shout and a loud ovation for the victory of Christ. I can see the victory of Christ in the making. Let us continue to watch.
- Now, UN has been judged according to My Word. First case in the General Assembly. It is going to be judged again in the UN Security Council. That is final.
- Remember, the prophecy went forth, “This is the final final of UN. UN Assembly will never exist after this one.”
- Do you know what they have in mind? Do you know what God has already put in place? I announced it to you, “Get ready for Armageddon.” It has started unfolding gradually.
- The next thing you will see is that it will burst out in full swing.A speedy riddance will the LORD God Almighty make upon this earth, and empties it in righteous. Am I pleading with any flesh?
- Romans 2:1-3, GNB.1Do you, my friend, pass judgment on others? You have no excuse at all, whoever you are. …
- If you are guilty, simply condemn yourself inside and make it right. If there is no other Message I am passing to you today, let this be My salutation for this first worship service in the month of October 2024. This is the first day of the week.
- Take this Scripture into your heart. I have never failed from giving you memorable Scriptures every first worship of the month.
- …For when you judge others and then do the same things which they do, you condemn yourself. … Yes!
- Doing the same thing they do means that you think the way they think. You reason the way they reason. You behave the way they behave. And you exclude yourself because you thing you have authority over them. You bought slaves.
- They are no longer human beings. The master will think they are mere houseboys and house girls. They have become slaves. So, being master, I have the right to clamp down on them. Woe unto that master.
- Job said, “Far be it from me. cursed be upon me if I will not give my own maidservant a fair hearing. After all, she is a human being created by God the same way He created me, for He will hold me guilty for not giving her fair hearing.”
- That is why for every evil action, the perpetrator must be ready to explain. What is causing the trouble? Is it guilt?It is when the perpetrator begins to deny and begins to tell lies or impose it on someone whose hands are clean like we are seeing here as regards the guilt between Okwuchukwu and FearGod.
- Okwuchukwu will like to dominate because he has a flippant tongue. He has a very smooth and sweet tongue. He knows that FearGod has his own weakness in speech.
- So, whenever he denies what he did, he will shift it to FearGod. FearGod will use age on Okwuchukwu and push the blame.
- But being the Master, I will be stupid if I do not investigate it by bringing the two together. Through fair investigations, I will know the truth about the matter.
- A wise man does not punish people before knowing the truth. Investigation before judgment. Investigation, judgment, then punishment.
- Find out the person that committed the crime to know whether it is one or two. In judgment, find out the reasons for committing that crime and why such a person could do such a thing.
- In punishment, punish him as a correction and not as death so that he will learn his lessons and never go that way again. If he deserves warning, warn him.
- If he does not change, use punitive measures. If punitive measures cannot work, send him away because you cannot kill him.
- 2 We know that God is right when he judges the people who do such things as these. 3 But you, my friend, do those very things for which you pass judgment on others! Do you think you will escape God’s judgment?
- Romans 2:1-3, Complete Jewish Bible.1Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, passing judgment; for when you judge someone else, you are passing judgment against yourself; since you who are judging do the same things he does.
- 2 We know that God’s judgment lands impartially on those who do such things;… lands impartially on those who do those things and judge them.
- 3 do you think that you, a mere man passing judgment on others who do such things, yet doing them yourself, will escape the judgment of God?Amen!!!
- Take note! You who punish people for telling lies, do you tell lies. You punish them for stealing, do you steal?
- I am bringing it down so that you know exactly what God is saying. You that are disobedient to your parents, do you criticize disobedient children?
- You punish your children for being disobedient to you, do you disobey God. you punish your family members, your wife and everybody saying that they are unfaithful to you. Are you faithful to God?
- We are trying to talk to ourselves. We are laying a background for faith in Christ that bringeth salvation. Faith that bringeth salvation is pure. It is holy. It is never suspicious. It believeth all things.
- James, explaining it said, “Hold not the faith of our LORD Jesus Christ with respect of persons.” Faith that brings salvation of pure, holy and undefiled in all respect. Faith holds the Word of God to a very high esteem. Faith does not condemn others and justify himself. Faith is very merciful, very compassionate, love, full of appreciation and thanksgiving, and believeth all things.
- We want to touch on that thing. The Book of James said, “If you obey all the laws but you are guilty of one, you are guilty of all.”
- REFERENCE: James 2:1, 8-10, KJV.1My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. ……. 8If ye fulfil the royal law according to the Scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 9but if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.10For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
- For that reason– For that reason, let the only law that will rule your life be the law of love – liberty – made for free men. Christ has set you free.
- Live youR lives as free people,not to witch-hunt others, backbiting, fighting, finding faults and things like that, for where these things exist, truly speaking, trouble exists there. the devil exists there. faith vanishes.
- Lack of faith in oneself brings about lack of faith in another. Is it not true? A man that does not trust himself, can he trust another? Thank you!
- On this note, I invite Pastor Chizoba to the pulpit to help our faith. This is the original version. Quote the date it was handled. It was handled before it was explained.

FAITH EXPLAINED
BY
THE SON OF MAN
If He (Christ, the Apostle) never resurrected, our faith is useless. We are worshipping in vain. Remember He resurrected for our sanctification. My Christ is not in the grave. He really resurrected. He has presented Himself through the Son of Man. Hence, we call Him the Resurrected Body.
THE SON OF MAN
I AM THE WORD EXPLAINED VOL 1; Preached on Sunday 27 April 2014 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 73 vs. 30

LET MY NAME HELP PEOPLE TO IDENTIFY MY GOD
Moderated by THE SON OF MAN
- The Message titled FAITH was handled on 12th March 1993.
- Take note of that date immediately.
- It was handled at the Household of God Onitsha by Apostle Peter Odoemena, THE SON OF MAN, The Supreme Intelligence.
- And explained when?
- It was explained on 6th September2015, but originally handled on 12th March 1993.
- FAITH EXPLAINED was handled by the Almighty God Himself at the Household of God on 6th September 2015.
- If your name is Faith, does it mean you have faith in God? Faith is abstract. Faith is made real when the name is associated with faith.
- Faith may be faith in your culture, faith in your tradition, faith in your people, faith in the shrine in your village. Is it a lie Brethren? Faith? What is that which you believe? Whose Faith is that?
- Your name as faith is useless if Christ is not attached to it. If it is not Christ’s Faith, it is devilish faith. Is it a lie Brethren? It is destructive faith.
- So, tell us the faith that brought about your name so that we will watch you. We will watch you from your name.
- If you tell Me your faith is in the devil, “I do not believe in God”, I know where your faith is. Whenever I come into contact with you, I do not expect anything good, for no good thing, no honest gift or good deed can come from the devil.
- Every good and honest gift comes from God, but dishonest and destructive gifts, they come from the devil. Did you get the Message.
- Let your name help people to identify your God. Do you understand My Message? Let my name help people to identify My God.
- Chapter 1 – UNBELIEF: from verse 3. 3There is something that attracts you to His Presence.[Sure!!!] If I see you writing, I will deal with youmercilessly! You have written enough, but you have believed a little. …
- It has fulfilled again o. You see, God is the same yesterday, today and forever. The Word of God has eyes. Has it not caught all of you now? Everybody is vigorously writing with his or her Biro®
- 6I know from the onset that it is a tough thing to save a human being. Watch? …I know from the onset… From the onset.
- 7He believes in enjoying this world in his own way, whatever he sees beyond this world, he will take it anyhow. Elijoe’s faith.
- 8While another category is of the opinion that whatever that lies ahead is there for the generality of the people, So his own cannot be an exception. … Elijoe’s faith.
- … Whatever might be the fate of others that he would bear with them. So, no panic. Well, I reserve My comments there.
- God reserved His comments then. Has He made His comment today? In 2015, He reserved His comments. In 2024, has He made His comments on those issues? Has He cleared all doubts that God exists? That hell exists? And that heaven exists?
- 9The reason we shout and leap for joy, making your experiences with the Deity always your testimonies that the Deity is in your midst, is because you are believing the reports of the heathen and rejecting the reports of the Deity. What?
- 9The reason we shout and leap for joy, making your experiences with the Deity always your testimonies that the Deity is in your midst, is because you are believing the reports of the heathen and rejecting the reports of the Deity. 10In other words, you are learning from the devil. Satan is now helping you more than your Creator. …
- 16His eyes went to the calendar, he asked, “So, this man is here? I know Him. I know Him and this is how we meet. You do not know Him, but I know Him. Who do you think he is for which cause you hung this thing there? For He is hidden. He does not make noise.
- He is what? Hidden. If you sleep, you are to blame yourself in the end, for you do not know what this month holds for you.
- Do you know that your Faith makes you an overcomer. Do you know that all that you are requiring from God will be given to you by your faith? Do you know that?
- What if that real Faith is not in there, but they exist in your mind and in your brain. You do not know that you have knowledge without faith which is the worst – having knowledge without faith – which means that you know the truth and you can balance the truth. You can preach and things like that, but you do not have faith.
- The Jews had it that way. The reason why many did not possess Canaan, was it not because of lack of Faith? Was it not what happened? Is it not this same Message you are hearing that they heard? Is it not the same God? Is it not contained in Hebrews 4?
- What hindered them? They taught they had faith, but they did not know that they had not the faith of Moses. They were following Moses with their knowledge.
- Reference: Hebrews 4:1-2, TLB.[1]Although God’s promise still stands—his promise that all may enter his place of rest—we ought to tremble with fear because some of you may be on the verge of failing to get there after all.[2]For this wonderful news—the message that God wants to save us—has been given to us just as it was to those who lived in the time of Moses. But it didn’t do them any good because they didn’t believe it. They didn’t mix it with faith.
- Following someone with your knowledge is different from following Him by faith. Faith makes one a foolish fellow before those who have knowledge. Faith makes one to look foolish.
- To those who are knowledgeable in the affairs of this present world, he that is walking by faith is considered to be foolish, unreasonable and unwise.
- So, do not think that faith is the easiest thing you can acquire. No! Faith is revelation. Anyway, let Me stop.
- REFERENCE: [1] 1 Corinthians 1:21, TLB.[21]For God in his wisdom saw to it that the world would never find God through human brilliance, and then he stepped in and saved all those who believed his message, which the world calls foolish and silly.
- [2] Ephesians 2:8-9, AMP.8For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favour) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God; 9Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]
- 21BECAUSE OF THE DEVELOPMENT AROUND YOU, BEFORE I WILL CONCLUDE MY JUDGEMENT AGAINST THE BRIDAL FAITH, I WANT TO TOUCH ON SOMETHING. AND I AM BEING LED OF ALL TO LAY HAND ON THIS.
- 22Let Me see whether there will be somebody that will be saved from among you. Young and old, there is no exception. Because you do not believe, how can your children believe? It is what you have that you will pass unto your children. True or false?
- 26THIS IS WHAT IS LACKING IN ALL OF YOU. AND WITHOUT IT, YOU ARE WASTING YOUR TIME.
- What is that thing lacking? Faith. Without faith, you are wasting your time, for anything that is not done by faith is sin.
- Hear Me very well. Faith does not condemn one that needs help by Faith. We are living by Faith. Even right now, are we not living by Faith? Faith in Christ. Faith expressed in the Word of God. there is no condemnation in it.
- Whatever that brings condemnation to you has nothing to do with faith. It has to do with carnality. It has to do with what? Carnality!
- 28I want this Message to permeate into the fabrics of everybody. When was this message handled? March 12th.
- … As many as were with Me from the very official beginning, will bear witness to this truth: the summary was, Mixed Multitude Part 1, Part 2, Part 3; Jerusalem to Jericho; then Faith. …
- Highlights of what we shall meet as we journey along. Faith will be the last thing that will usher us into Paradise, for Faith is grace.
- William Branham said that the last Message that will be on earth before the catching away of the Saints is the Message of grace. Abdrushin said, “The coming son of man will come to restore Grace, and then make heaven [Paradise] a possibility.
- What can we say about the Professor, Sigmund Mowinckel. He said, “He is the Bringer of Grace and truth.”We are talking about the son of man.
- Remember, when there was a departure from the faith of Christ totally grace and truth vanished. There was no grace, and there was no truth. What filled the whole earth? Junk food! Religious and political junks.
- Where there was no food, anybody can eat bread and die. Drink anything drinkable and die. This is because where the real food is not available, poison will replace food. Is it a lie Brethren? The whole aim is to have something in the stomach.
- Quality does not count where there is hunger and starvation. Quantity counts. Quantity has meaning in the time of hardship. Then quality is thrown away. And that is a foolish man.
- I better eat quality food very exorbitantly and live than to eat cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap. Cheap things! Cheap poison. You eat cheap poison and die a painful death. Am I making sense?
- It is better I eat quality food that is expensive and live expensive life. That is all! Do you understand what I am saying?
- There are still bread in the market. When you want to eat bread, search for hygienic bread. Some are sold for ₦1,800, ₦2,500, ₦3,000. It is better that you buy such bread and eat.
- If you want to drink tea, drink quality tea. Tea that is approved for human health. Tea that is meant for human consumption. Do not buy quantity because it is cheaper. You can distribute it in sachets. You drink from sachet and die of diarrhoea.
- Better buy that expensive milk than to buy the one that is already poison. Buy expensive sugar. Do not buy industrial sugar. Do not buy icing sugar. They are meant for industrial use.
- If you want to cook your food as industrial, be very careful God will judge you. Better cook quality food and charge very high. People that love their lives will patronize you.
- You maintain your good record than to sell cheaper food which is poison so that the popularity will be there that your food is the cheapest. Yet, it is the greatest killer. The greatest destroyer. Do you understand what I am saying?
- If you want to live, anything that is packaged in sachet, run away from it. anything that is packaged in a sachet, be very careful the way you patronize it.
- Watch what is damaging the liver and the hearts of our youth. It is very cheap. Ethanol. It is not ethanol because you cannot prove it. It is already enclosed in a sachet.
- But if it is in a bottle, we can prove it. We can prove it, taste the thing and tell the person that this is rubbish. But it is in a sachet, one spoon inside a sachet. Sealed! Once you tear it open, it is already in your mouth. Whether it is good or bad, you must swallow it.
- But if it is the bottled one, you open it and it gives you another taste, you cork it and say, “My friend, return this thing. This is not what I bargained for. This is adulterated.”
- So it is with everything that is inside a container this days including vegetable oil. I say, including what? Vegetable oil.
- Be it known to you now that people use chemical they manufactured in making women’s hair as vegetable oil. They use that dangerous chemical because it is fatty acid to adulterate palm kernel oil that is bleached. Some adulterate olive oil especially the sunflower olive.
- So, be very very careful the way you are using those things. That is why cancer is now ravaging everybody. Ulcer is ravaging everybody. The immune system is going down everyday.
- This is because your life is a matter of what you eat and what you drink. What am I saying? Go back to nature. Go back to nature. That’s all!
…..[Whether] you like it or not, believe it because I am the One telling you. Here, I am the Resurrection and the Life. I do nothing of My own will. ……. I thank God that I am not even your Messenger. Do not call Me your Messenger, otherwise you make a mistake. You have a Messenger of your day. I am not the one. I am alone. That is why I do not preach so that you believe. Know I preach the truth I know in love and I leave it there. If you want to believe it, you believe. If you do not want to believe, leave it there. In the end, you will know that I am He.

WITHOUT FAITH, THERE IS NO TRANSLATION
- FAITH EXPLAINED preached on 6th September 2015, Page 22 from verse 28. 28… As many as were with Me from the very official beginning, will bear witness to this truth: the summary was, Mixed Multitude Part 1, Part 2, Part 3; Jerusalem to Jericho; then Faith.
- 29And there was not even one that was not confirmed with the Supernatural Sign.[Sure!!!] The wind that confirmed this message kept us in the fellowship for many hours. …
- Have you not heard the testimony before? The wind– mighty wind that confirmed this Message of Faith, for the Word went forth ahead of time that this Message must be crowned and confirmed by God in a supernatural way this evening like previous Messages. And it fulfilled to the letter.
- … There was no rain. There was no sunshine. There was no cloudy atmosphere. And we were told about it before themessage opened. …
- 31Remember, it was the opening of the message titled, “Mixed Multitude” , that we heard the first audible voice. We heard speaking in tongues, we heard the interpretation, we heard prophecies that sustained us till today.[Sure!!!] Not even one ever disappointed us.
- For the Scriptures said that the Apostles were preaching the Message with signs and wonders following. It said they were handling the Word of God in truth and God confirming what they were preaching with signs and wonders following. Acts of the Apostles.
- REFERENCES: [1] Acts 5:12, KJV. And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
- [2] Hebrews 2:4, KJV. God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to His own will?
- Signs and wonders confirm and follow preaching the truth, not signs and wonders before preaching. Did you get what I am saying? Signs and wonders follow a child of God. Mark chapter 16 verse 17. Check it there.
- Signs and wonders will follow them that believe. Not when you do not believe, you will be going for signs and wonders. If you say you have believed, you do not go for signs and wonders, for you have believed the Word of God.
- And your belief will now cause signs and wonders to be following you wherever you go.
- Mark 16:16-17, KJV. 16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
- 16He who believes [who adheres to and trusts in and relies on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] and is baptized will be saved [ from the penalty of eternal death]; but he who does not believe [who does not adhere to and trust in and rely on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] will be condemned.
- 17And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe:… These attesting signs will accompany those that believe, which means that a believer does not run to and fro looking for signs and wonders. They are for unbelievers.
- You believe the Word of God, and then, God will attest to your belief with supernatural things following. William Branham said, “Wherever the Word of God is preached unadulterated, God must vindicate it with supernatural signs.” Is it not true? Are they not happening among you?
- So, let us be very very careful. Those who run helter-skelter.“A great man of God has come”, and they will run there. This and that will come and they will run there. Today, they are tired. They have proved all of them to be liars. Fake!
- The LORD Jesus said “All that went forth before Me were liars and criminals – wolves.”
- 31Remember, it was the opening of the message titled, “Mixed Multitude”, that we heard the first audible voice. We heard speaking in tongues, we heard the interpretation, we heard prophecies that sustained us till today. Amen!!!
- 32And He said, “All I am going to say, all you will meet in this pilgrim journey are summarized in these three packages: [1] Mixed Multitude, [2] Jerusalem to Jericho and [3] Faith. For Faith is the last message that will take you to rapture. …
- Have you heard it? Have you heard it? Do you know where you are? RESURRECTION TIME.
- Is it any wonder why I have decided to upload the five concluding Messages – the summary of the Faith. I uploaded against 2025. Did you get the Message?
- I write history before events. I and the children God has given to Me, we are for signs, we are for wonders in this generation.
- … For Faith is the last message that will take you to rapture.Without it, there is no translation for anybody. What?
- Without it, there is no translation for anybody. Faith in Who? Faith in the revealed Christ of your day in Whom is your righteousness. Faith in the Righteous Branch. Did you get the Message?
- You MUST have faith in Him Whom the LORD has sent in your day. Unshakable faith. Unquestionable faith.
- … Without it, there is no translation for anybody. Inside it, you will see what is called peace.
- Look at somebody who you may say did not know anything about our faith or is trying to know. Look at her own confession.
- She confessed that she made a trip during horrible hour and then, she was led on the way to call on My line saying that if I should pick the call, that was all she needed.
- Fortunately, I picked that call and began to interview her, “Where are you heading to? Why? Where is your husband? Who permitted you? What is the reason for this trip?”Then, the line went off. I did not hear the call again.
- When eventually, she came back and called Me, I interviewed her again, and she said, “I knew no evil would befall me because I got you along the line. You would never permit that evil.”
- I asked, “Were you not afraid of kidnappers?”for it was raining heavily by 8 o’clock in the night in the forest. You were not even afraid of hoodlums and bandits – Fulani herdsmen. You were not even afraid of people capturing you and raping you to death. You knew not where you were heading to. What would you have done if you were besieged?
- She said, “You will never permit that to happen to me. I had already exercised my faith that night, that come what may, I must get to my destination safe and secured, for I got you on the line.” And she was on the highway, and it dawned on her to call on Me. I told the Elders.
- When she came back, I told the Elders, look at her confession. I said, “So, you have this type of a faith.” She said, “Ah ah! I do not border myself. All I know is that I have believed in you. And as you said, so shall it happen to me. Finish! If you do not permit it, it will not happen. Well, I do not know about another person.” That was all.
- I do not know about another person. I only know about myself. Can you see?
- Trust women for one thing. Trust them for one thing. Check your Scriptures. If they have believed, they have believed. They are not like men. Men are chameleons. Men are bats. I am telling you. Men are worse than women. That is why women receive the greater favour than men.Check the history everywhere. Women!
- Reference: Sarah, Rahab, Manoah’s wife, Hannah, Ruth, the woman of Zarephath, the Shunammite woman, Elizabeth, Mary the mother of Jesus, Mary Magdalene, Joanna the wife of Chuza, Susanna, Rhoda, Dorcas [Tabitha], Lydia etc.
- 33I read quotes, Prophet William Branham said, “The last message that will be on earth before the catching away of the saint is the message of grace. Faith and grace are one.” …
- So, all I said are there. You know how I did it today. You were all there. You saw Bon Diuka’s messages brought before Me. I threw all of them back. I did not take any.
- I called Okwuchukwu who was standing there, “Enter the library. This is what I want you to give Me” for God knows what you need at all times.
- You now have knowledge. You have enough knowledge. If knowledge can save, your knowledge will save you. But knowledge will never save you without faith in that knowledge. Knowing God alone can never save anybody. The devil knows God. Knowing the truth can never save anybody. The devil knows the truth, but he does not live according to the truth.
- So, if you know the truth, and you do not live according to the truth, you are a devil. I say, you are a devil. The devil believes in God, but does not have faith in Him. That is why he could not live the life of God. he saw obedience to God as belittling himself.
- That is why he is puffed up with pride, envy and jealousy, full of suspicion and hate, for wherever suspicion exists, hate exists there.
- Why do people hate each other? Is it not because of suspicion? Check among men and women, married and unmarried. Wherever there is suspicion, hate is there.
- The moment you suspect your wife or your husband, you must hate one another. Do you know that sisters hate their fellow sisters – Blood line! Blood line!– because of suspicion. This is true. So it is with brothers.
- Have you seen whyChrist said, “LET YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST RISE ABOVE YOUR FEAR, above your suspicion and above your unbelief.”
- Let faith take care of you. Live by faith, for the righteous shall live by faith.The righteous does not live by the works of the law. He lives by faith.
- He went further to say, “Any time it shall be revealed, the works of law shall cease. What? “Any time it shall be revealed, the works of law shall cease. …
- Has faith been revealed? Who came to reveal Faith? When the son of man shall come, shall He find faith? He came. There was total departure. He restored the faith revealed to Him. The faith that bringeth salvation. The faith that changes human life, if they will believe.
- I have come to reveal faith, not ordinary faith, but the faith that changes human life, if they will believe and act on their faith.
- When you believe and act on your belief, it becomes your faith. Mere believing is not faith, but acting on what you believe is faith. DID YOU GET THE MESSAGE?
- Moses believed God. When God said, “Stretch out that rod you have in your hand towards the Red Sea”, He stretched it out, and the Red Sea parted. What if, when the Red Sea parted, they stood there watching? Do you not think that Pharaoh would have captured them?
- What if they were afraid to step into the valley because they were looking at the water that parted on both sides – very high? If they were walking by sight, do you not think that faith would have disappointed everybody.
- If they walked by sight, nobody would have stepped into the valley burying himself upon the bedrocks of the river. And upon the river, there were many fishes. God parted the sea into very high walls.
- Anyone walking in between the two high walls, water will be touching the person’s hands. And they were walking in a single file. When we read this experience, it will seem as fairy tales, but it is real.
- Benjamin Netanyahu rehearsed it. The Israeli ambassador to the UN rehearsed it. 3,025 years ago. With this, we know that we are about to open the Gate.
- If that day they were celebrating it marked 3,025 years, where are we? Where are we today? Did you get the Message?
- 33… He went further to say, “Any time it shall be revealed, the works of law shall cease. Grace will take over.”
- What are the works of law? The works of the flesh. The strength of sin is the law. Is it not true? The strength of sin, is it not the law? Take away the law, sin loses its strength. Sin loses its power. Flesh loses its power. Is it a lie Brethren?
- So, death is still reigning in the hearts of men, because up till today, Christ has not been revealed in their hearts. THE SON OF MAN is yet to be revealed in the hearts of many. Many are not yet convinced and convicted.
- Deacon Anselm (Protected by God) handled a Message, I AM CONVINCED: ARE YOU CONVINCED? So, take note of what I am saying.
- All of you, from now see yourselves as people who were there on 12th March 1993. Apart from Myself here, there is nobody sitting down here now who was there.
- But there are too many people who are still alive who were there. Some are outside like Kelechi Uwakwe, Amankem and so on. But many are still in the Faith fighting. Many are still fighting. Some are dead.
- This Message came to resurrect many that died spiritually. Take note of what I am saying. This Message will resurrect many that died spiritually, especially in Mbaise, Ngwa and Aba, even Owerri.
- This Message will revive them. Otherwise, no hope of eternal life for all of them. So it is to those at Opi and some other places. For Enugu, this is their last hope.
I know you are expecting Me to preach a Message. I am here to arouse Translation consciousness in you. You have already believed that God sent Me. You have heard much of My Messages. You have all of them. I have nothing to tell you than to say that you should continue in the Message you have received, knowing the Person who gave you the Message. You know the Source of the Message. My duty is to encourage you to continue there. That is why I am here. There is no other reason why. But if you are expecting a great sermon, you will be disappointed. I will raise things that will help you believe that you do not know God, but God knows you.

YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST ATTRACTS HIM TO YOU [1]
- FAITH EXPLAINED preached on 6th September 2015, Page 24 from verse 34.34What is more? Isaiah the prophet saw it: a time when God will begin to justify people not by works but by faith – by grace. And he wondered who would live on earth to be the possible beneficiaries.
- 35The Voice said, “It is not unto you, it is your people that are yet to come. It is not for you.”Future generation!
- 36They enquired about the manner of people that will be here, to be beneficiaries of the grace which you have already abused. You have grossly abused it. And you are suffering it, you will suffer it more here.
- This one is for you people. Yes! 2015. Those who abused it before, did God spare them? Those that are spurning grace now when they could not live right under the law, what is their hope?
- You spurned the law. You spurned grace. What is your hope? Under the law, were you perfect? If you say you were perfect, you are telling lies against God, for the law maketh nothing perfect. Did you get the Message.
- I am He. I say, I am He. Go up, come down, you will be pointed back to the son of man.
- 38I was prying into the message handled by our former Bishop Okechukwu Nwankpa. I have it here. I will challenge all of you to go and read it and finish it. Take note of it.
- 39 … He declared the beginning and ending of his ministry. That was at the beginning. A good number of you are not here. He warned everybody seriously.
- 40Unfortunately, he became the victim of his warning. He vowed against Himself and he broke his vow. He placed curses even upon himself. Amen.
- So it is with all of them. Have you not heard that of Kelechi Uwakwe and Amankem. That is why they are hiding in shame. They have resorted to sending their wives to mediate on their behalf, But can that work? Can it work?
- Chapter 2: HAVE FAITH IN GOD. Page 26 from verse 1.Faith, preached 12th March, 1993 at Amazu Oil.“I told you the other time that we are building a spiritual house. You see the foundation has been laid. What is the foundation? Look at the “Stature of a Perfect man”.
- See it there. Look at the pyramid. Was it not where we read this morning? Faith. That is saint Paul – First Church age Messenger, the Messenger God sent to Rome, where He handled the Message found in Romans chapter 2.
- 4 … Without faith, it is impossible for a man to please God. Why? A human being will like to add his own that will be credited to him. Give him the original Message, he will twist it and give it his own interpretation, “Am I a robot? Will I be paying attention without saying something?”That which he will add will mark everybody out.
- 5“…From here now, we are going to erect a very fine house, a spiritual house which I am one of them and you are one of them…” It is not a carnal house.
- 9Their inability to do the works of the master was an eloquent testimony that they had no faith in whatever their master taught them. … That is pure truth.
- 11 … Watch! As long as Peter focused his attention on Him–As long as Peter anchored his faith on that Word, ‘come’, Peter walked on the sea. Doubting nothing and without looking at the sea.
- River Niger is small. It is ordinary river and not a sea. The son of man was walking on top of the sea. You enquired of who is walking on the sea and He tells you that He is the one.
- You went further to tell Him that if He is truly the son of man that He should beckon on you to come, and He told you, “Come!”You over look the sea and walk courageously as if you are walking on a bridge.”
- What is it? The faith he had in the master that even he sinks, that he shall be rescued. His faith was not for him to swim. As long as he was not considering the sea, but was considering that Word, “Come”, he was walking.
- But immediately he walked by sight– by sight, he recognized that he was on top of water, saying, “Can this be a dream”, immediately, he sank. Did you get it?
- That is why faith does not operate with reasoning. Faith does not operate by sight. Faith makes impossibility possible.
- 12Read that scripture, the scripture said, “Immediately Peter looked away from Him, Peter started sinking.
”13Immediately he looked away from the Master, there was no other thing left before his eyes… Did you get the Message?
- He looked away from He that called him and started gauging the possibility of one standing on the surface of water. He sank.
- When you look away from the Master, the LORD Christ, Who called you to share with you in His glory and honour– you look away from Him, you are going to crash. You are going to crash. You must make a shipwreck, for that reasoning that entered your mind and brought you out of His presence has destroyed you.
- 15At another point, he told them “Let us cross to Bethany.” He deliberately slept in the boat. …Note! He deliberately slept. Can God sleep?
- 15 … He deliberately dozed off. Immediately he did it, the tempest came. Water started surging into the boat uncontrollably. The tempest rose.
- The devil saw it as an opportunity to destroy Him, now that He has slept, “I will finish Him here together with His disciples.”The devil knew it not that He that keepeth watch over Israel does not sleep, neither does He slumber.
- 18A time came when they approached Him and said, “Master, increase our faith.” He did not listen to them. He rather made a statement, “If you have faith just like the size of a mustard seed”, it is not a big thing. There is no mother that uses spices who cannot testify that a mustard seed is the tiniest seed visible with human eyes. Is it a lie Brethren?
- Do you not use mustard seed in cooking? It is sold in the market. It is available. It comes in packets or sachets. It cleanses the body system. It also helps and supports the children. It improves the immune system, though it is very scarce now. There was a time it was rampant.
- It is the best spice you can use in cooking be it stew, soup and so on. It is from Israel, but now, you cannot get it anyhow because of the war.
- 20REMEMBER THAT THERE WAS NO OTHER REASON, WHY GOD DESTROYED HIS PEOPLE FROM THE TIME OF OLD TILL TODAY IF NOT FOR UNBELIEF,…Lack of faith.
- William Branham the Prophet said it. The Prophet Muhammad Raheem equally amplified it by saying, “Whatever you say you believe and you cannot put it into practice, you do not believe it.” He said, “it is your action that justifies your faith.”
- It is your faith that is being reflected in all your actions, which is “action is faith expressed.”
- There are people that say that they believe. It is also the Scriptures there, “They say they believe, but in every work reprobate. In practice, they deny Christ.”
- In preaching, they can preach down this building, but in the application of that which they preach[their teachings and doctrines], they weigh zero. Then who do you want to believe and practice?
- If you are a believer and not a practitioner, you are deceiving yourself.
- The Book of James said, “Be not hearers only, deceiving yourself. Be also doers of the Word.” Only then shall you receive praise from God. Only then shall your faith give you the needed salvation.
- How dare you say you believe that it is not wrong for people to drink Coke, and when Coke is presented, you say, “No, it is in keeping with My faith.” Which faith did you preach to others.
- A leader should stay in front. If you believe in your teachings and in your doctrines, you will find no fault with your Brother and with your Sister who is acting in accordance with his or her faith in Christ– in accordance with the teachings.
- If the person is acting contrary, that is when you will call that person to order because you know more than that person. Is it not true?
- But today, the reverse is the case. All we have are modern Pharisees, modern Sadducees, modern Herodians. That is what we have in our midst. Teachers and preachers of grace and truth, but doers of the law.
- They preach because they know it is what THE SON OF MAN is preaching, but not that they believe and practice it. This is why in the families, it is difficult to have a believer, for the headman [the hypocrite] says, “Believe in my preaching and not in my action.” Is this person in the Faith of Christ?
- When you are teaching someone to believe, do you tell the person to believe without practicing the Message? You that are teaching, do you practice the doctrine? The answer is yes. Why are you doing it in secret?
- Are you now a secret disciple of Christin action and open disciple in preaching to others. In other words, you are preaching to impress others, but not to save your soul.
- That is why God [Paul] enjoined Timothy to preach that which is truth and see to it that it is implemented. By so doing, he saves his life and the life of those who hear and follow you.
- 26 … Maybe you did not know that He did not even punish those that sinned in time past,[Sure!!!] they were all kept there waiting for Me.[Sure!!!]
- 27LET ME TELL YOU, WITHOUT MY APPEARANCE, NO FLESH WILL BE DECLARED PERFECT. EXACTLY!
- 28Abraham was a friend of God, but what perfected him? FAITH! It was his implicit, unshakable faith in Christ that made him to sacrifice Isaac without considering anything. Not even what the wife would say moved him. …
- Is it not that same faith we possess? If you do not possess that faith, you do not belong to Abraham, and the promises do not belong to you. You are an evangelist evangelizing the world, telling them about promises that do not belong to you.
- What will it profit me to help people to get saved and I will get lost? This is for our individual consideration. You help others to get into the Kingdom of Heaven [Paradise], but you now enter into hellfire.
- 3312th March, 1993. If you happened to be here that time man and woman, even infants that accompanied us; they were minors, today, they are grown-ups. If you are here, show by raising your hands. 1993, 12th
- 34You were not there! Are you sure you heard Me? You were not there! 1993! Your husband was not there. By 1993, you were in Zoë Ministry doing deliverance with your husband. Thank you!
- Referring to sister Florence Chukwuemeka [the wife of late Deacon Dan Chukwuemeka of Owerri Household of God].
Brethren, The Resurrected Body is in the Bride. Who will speak and it will come to pass? God! Remember that is the One Still Small Voice speaking in the midst of many Voices, but His own is distinct, hidden in simplicity somewhere in the wilderness. A Voice away from all! The Message of the Son of Man can be summarized in a statement titled, “Heaven made possible.” Do you know that He was born under the law? And lived under the law? Do you know that? But having a Ministry to liberate as many as were in bondage to those laws

YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST ATTRACTS HIM TO YOU [2]
- FAITH EXPLAINED preached on 6th September 2015, Page 41 from verse 20.20 … Faith will move us into the immortal body.[Amen!!!]“Faith is the only thing that can hold God’s Word…”Do you believe that?The only thing that can hold God’s word, Faith! “Faith brings Christ on the scene…”What? “Faith brings Christ on the scene…”
- Wherever you are, your faith attracts Christ to you. Your faith in Him attracts Him to you.
- 22“…Faith cannot be present until love comes first…” Note! “…Faith is the only thing God recognizes…” Faith is the only thing that God recognizes.
- 22“…Faith cannot be present until love comes first…” Love comes first. Faith accompanies it. “…Faith is the only thing God recognizes…”
- 23Faith is the only thing God will recognize. TELL ME IF THERE BE ANY OTHER THING THAT WILL BE MORE ESSENTIAL THAN FAITH. …
- If God will see you today, what will He see in you? Faith. Is it not what the son of man appeared to look for? Faith. And it does not exist anywhere. Total falling away! Faith was replaced by counterfeits.
- He started all over again with the restoration of the Faith of Christ — the Faith of our fathers. Immediately He concluded it, the ancient Cloud came down to confirm it.
- 24Pause a little and begin to see why Christ was really very uncomfortable with people milling around Him. Not even one ever believed him by faith,[Sure!!!]except the Roman centurion.[Sure!!!]
- 25A heathen believed Christ more than the people to whom Christ was sent. A heathen so much believed [to the extent] that he could declare that he was unworthy for Christ to come into his house. And believed so much in Him that if He could speak only but a word from that stand point, that, that word would travel, find its way into his house and administer healing to his dying servant. Is it a lie?
- 27That is why the Bible said, “If a Roman, a Gentile can meet the standard of God, God’s requirements, he will be made acceptable to God as a result of his faith.[Yes!!!] While a Jew who paid lips service, but only claims salvation by heritage, in the end time will be disappointed.” [Sure!!!]
- 28 … SOME ARE ONLY HAVING WHAT I WILL CALL HISTORICAL ASSURANCE– … God is in our midst.…THEORETICAL ASSURANCE, WITHOUT HAVING A PRACTICAL ASSURANCE.Amen!!!
- 29YOU MUST BE SURE AND CERTAIN, YOU MUST HAVE A PRACTICAL, AND PERSONALEXPERIENCEWHEREIN YOU CAN STAND AND THEN TELL YOURSELF THAT YOU ARE SAVED BY ELECTION OF GRACE. True or false?
- You must be personally and practically acquainted with God. Only then can you begin to talk of eternal life.
- 30NOT EVERY PREACHING YOU HEAR, YOU CLAIM IT. WHATEVER YOU HEAR, YOU CLAIM IT AND JUMP UP. BUT THERE IS NO PRACTICAL EVIDENCE IN YOUR LIFE AS YOUR ENCOUNTER WITH GOD FOR ONE DAY. …
- Such a person’s name is Leeyi. Every time, he will be shouting, “We are already there.” He will jump over a bench even the person seated on the bench, becoming another Mike Udor – Ah ya yaa!
- 32“…Faith waters the seed in your heart…”What? “…Faith waters the seed in your heart…”What is the seed? The Word of God. Amen!
- 35Faith has no substitute because it is based on truth. What? Faith has no substitute because it is based on truth.
- 39How can you call upon Him whom you have not believed? How then do you think you can do the will of God when you find it difficult to believe in Him whom He has sent? You do not have the faith that is in Him.
- No matter how you prepare your food with valuable ingredients and everything, only one thing makes its taste good. Only one thing brings out the taste. What is that thing? Salt.
- Does it require one bag of salt? A little quantity [I mean] brings out the taste of the food. Did you get the Message? Fine.
- Do you know that you are the salt of the earth? You are the salt of the earth. If that salt loses its value [savour]… Do you understand Me? It is easier to drink tea without sugar than to eat food without salt.
- 39How can you call upon Him whom you have not believed? How then do you think you can do the will of God when you find it difficult to believe in Him whom He has sent? You do not have the faith that is in Him.
- 40He is operating differently. He is on one side and you are on another side. He is operating with the sixth-sense, you are operating in the fifth sense.
- Not that He has not revealed Himself to you; He has fully revealed Himself both His invisible and the visible attributes have been made known to you. … True or false? True or false?
- I have confirmed it through ancient documents, manuscript, reserved works. THIS IS YOUR DEPARTURE REVIVAL. THIS IS RESURRECTION REVIVAL.
- Then, what is the basis for the unbelief? What is the basis for the lack of faith? It then means you have a substitute.
- Lack of faith means that what you are looking for is not found in the person you are believing. if what you are looking for is found in him– you are sure and certain, that is your sure anchor.
- If you are looking for eternal life, and it is in no other name or person, and that person or name is revealed to you, is He not your final bus stop? You have reached your destination. You have found what you are looking for.
- One that has not reached his or her destination, continues the journey. Did you get the Message? That is why we have a sure anchor.
- 40 … He has fully revealed Himself both His invisible and the visible attributes have been made known to you. Then, what is the basis for the unbelief? What is the basis for the lack of faith? …
- Are we telling stories? Are we not with everything? Was it not in this very position I am now, while Chika was in the other place and Elijoe in another position as we sat differently, while My wife was seated there and the supernatural appeared on 29 August 2021. (Pointing at the positions where they all sat on August 29th)
- It happened in the day and amidst all these witnesses who saw with their eyes, making Me and others to believe that you enter your house out of fear and you close your door so that evil spirit will not come or so that no spirit will enter into your house. You are fooling yourself.
- Locking your doors will not hinder that which will afflict you from afflicting you. Did we not lock up everywhere? We were in the Fellowship. Did it stop God from coming in?
- First, He went directly there at the dining. My wife saw the whole thing. We all saw it. The final time was the last notice. It was not like spark of light or lightning. No! It was a beam of light up there.
- Nobody could believe that we were not going to perish that day except THE SON OF MAN, for I know what took place, but how to gather the people together became a problem. I used Messages. I continued, but I know what took place.
- 40 … Not that He has not revealed Himself to you. He has fully revealed Himself. Both His invisible and the visible attributes have been made known to you. Then, what is the basis for the unbelief? What is the basis for the lack of faith? It then means you have a substitute. Sure!!! Sure!!!
- You have your eyes and heart some other place. Is it a lie Brethren? You are not yet sure as to whether where you are is the right place and as to whether you have met the right person or not.
- No matter the supernatural vindications and the Word vindications, you are not satisfied. Why? You are not meant for Him. He is not meant for you.
- You have not discovered He that is sent to you. You might be thinking that the son of man is sent to you, but you do not know that you have no part in Him.
- If you have part in Him, nobody will tell you to believe in Him, for what is in Him is in you. He is all you are looking for. That’s all.
- 43Our actions prove to the Son of Man that we are not with Him. If there was a time we were looking unto Him, that time is over. Compare and contrast,…
- Now, we have come to the end, where is your spiritual standpoint? If by 2015 you happened to be here that time and you cannot compare, where are you in 2024?
- Are you still standing on that sinking sand or have you changed your location? Otherwise, all these parchments, histories and everything– all these supernaturals will turn out to be your condemnation in the end, for you read. You saw. You heard.
- 44There is nobody sitting down in this most holy Faith who is an adult who doesn’t know the time he or she was fixing his or her eyes on Christ and the time he or she looked away. True or false?
- Let Me tell you the remedy to this type of evil– destructive evil that operates silently in the heart of people. Lack of faith means unbelief. Only one thing has the cure.
- Sit down and ask yourself these questions. [1] From the beginning– From the time I embraced this Faith till now, what aspect of the faith is not clear to me?
- [2] By manifestation, what is the manifestation of the son of man that is not godly– that is not an attribute of God– that God is not known for it. See if you can find any. If you discover any, you are not in the Faith.
- If after your research works, you come to the conclusion like Sigmund Mowinckel [a professor]with his team of researchers, after the whole thing, your conclusion is justifying all the attributes of the Deity in THE SON OF MAN, then you have His Faith. You belong to Him. Paradise is for you. He came for your sake.
- I have given you the way out. You do not need to go to university for it.
- [1] I want to find out for myself the aspects of the teachings or doctrines of the son of man I can fault– that I think are not truth.
- [2] I equally want to see the aspect of His character or what He is manifesting that are devilish– that are not Christ’s character.
- If the answer is, “I have found none”, you belong to Christ. Be sincere in your assessment. That is what it means to re-examine, evaluate, scrutinize yourself.
May be we are becoming foolish in our own day or we want to assume that we know more than them. If we have known or have the understanding of all that this Man, the Apostle, the High Priest, the Comforter, the Elohim, the Resurrected Body, the Christ of our day has been teaching us all these years, do you think, by now, we will be shouting at anybody? By now, everybody must have mastered how to walk orderly so that the gift of God will be blessings to us.

THE STATE OF THE NATION
- When I said to the Elders on Saturday, “Be on the alert”, I explained what I meant. And this is exactly where I drove them to.
- You do not need to finish the whole sermon books you have or finish the whole Bible before you discover the truth, for everything is spiritually oriented.
- Since yesterday, I have been attacking the Elders on their spiritual standpoint, knowing that Armageddon has opened up. The fountain has opened. And the Bible said, “Not fountain of life, but fountain of death.” Fountain for destruction has been opened. No going back.
- And the LORD God Almighty has decided to bring both the natural, the unnatural, the supernatural, the mechanical and everything that will ensure the final destruction of the earth into being.
- Bombing will be going on, strafing going on, insurgence going on, flooding going on, earthquake going on, diseases going on. You cannot escape all. Except you are found in Christ.
- All those things God said they were signs but not the end, he did not withdraw any. Thunder will be striking people now. Lightning will be setting bushes and buildings ablaze. Everything!
- You know, inside a bomb, many things are there. It has exploded and will be exploding now every minute.
- Mark My Word. I say, mark My Word. The end of this world has come against men. Mark My Word. The world is nearest to its extinction together with the ungodly therein.
- At the end, we are going to see those marked as His own and declared righteous by their faith in Him. Your faith is your victory from now.
- By faith, they crossed the Red Sea. By faith, they sojourned in the wilderness. By faith, they crossed River Jordan. By faith, they won all the battles. By faith, they survived all hardships.
- You will know where we are. We took off there, we are landing there. By this, we know we have come to the end of all things.
- I have been silent over this matter for sometime because all that I placed before My eyes were gradually coming until this one has come.
- The greatest deceivers of the whole world have been judged. Number one is the seat of Rome. That is Caesar’s seat.
- Number two is this manmade devil who came into existence by act of parliament to save the world from impending holocaust after the second world war.
- United Nations came as a charter. It came as an act of parliament. Then, by convention, nations started subscribing to it, and then, indirectly gave it power. But the LORD said it is a toothless bulldog – rotten!
- Why is it a court when it ends its work by giving advisory judgment? Common advice. If it were a court, the Israeli ambassador to the UN would not have lambasted them, placing curses upon them and the General Secretary who was there, calling them names. Nobody called him to order. Who dared try it?
- Can you imagine? A defendant became a judge, judging the court where he was arraigned. The Prime Minister and all of them prophesied “Thus saith the LORD”, quoting the Torah for them and interpreting it.
- Where are we Brethren. Were they not the people that were declared wanted, dead or alive? What stopped them from arresting them there. Nobody dared to lay hands on them. Try and see.
- Rather, he will tell them, “The time for your extinction has come. Mark my words.”
- REFERENCE: Special Speech by MK Dan Danon, the Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations during the 79th General Assembly session [September 10 – 28, 2024] as transcribed, documented and preserved in the son of man’s library.
- “Today, the UN is a haven for terrorists, for tyrants, for dictators, a Laundromat to whitewash the crimes while shifting the focus to the vibrant democracy of Israel. And the root of all the UN’s evil is this very room – the General Assembly with its political makeup.
- This is the body where the human rights abusers have the same voice as law-abiding democracies. And it is in this hall, through distorted politics, that everybody enrolled in the UN system is decided. This is the begebenheit of the UN’s impotence.
- It multilateralism’s original sin here, the General Assembly. It is only politics and interests that are behind who sits on the Security Council. You chose to have Iran chair a human right forum. You elect judges from Lebanon and Somalia to the international court of justice. You put human rights abusers like Cuba on the human rights council. This is what the UN is.
- And you all continue playing this charade as if this institution holds any value whatsoever. This organization burns over $70 billion a year, and what conflict have the UN resolved? Which human right violations has it ended? Almost zero. The UN is only escalating wars and human right violations.
- You can continue this game of make-belief, but the UN’s clock is ticking. I’m telling you it’s ticking because soon, the world will wake up and see the disaster that the UN has become.
- In the future, remember my words. Students will study the fall of the UN. They will learn of this organization’s moral bankruptcy and blindness. They will be taught that your indifference and hypocrisy is what brought the UN crashing down.
- But this is also what will prompt the establishment of a new world institution. A force for good. One with a strong moral compass, democratic values. A body that will refuse to give dictators a free pass and terrorists, a life line. Mark my words. The UN’s days are numbered.”
- Let us continue with the Message. This Message is the Message that will see you through. It is so simple that the whites bypass it. So simple that professors bypass it. Philosophers and all of them bypass it. Astrologers bypass it because of its simplicity.
- But the simple-minded people like us, we are there already. We are there already, for God hides Himself in simplicity.
Because you have believed, it shall be unto you according to your faith. You have believed that I am HE, that I proceeded from the Father and no man is sent to judge the world but He that is talking to you now, through this very Message that you are holding. No other person! Having brought you thus far, I want to make it clear to all and sundry that the Son of Man, FROM THIS MOMENT, LEFT THE MERCY SEAT TO ENABLE ME ACCOMPLISH MY MISSION QUICKLY AND THEN SETTLE DOWN ONCE AND FOR ALL. I AM NOW OUT TO DISCOMFORT AND DISTRESS ALL THE NATIONS ON EARTH, FOR IT IS IN THE MIDST OF THE TROUBLE THAT YOU WILL BE THERE. FROM NOW, THE ENTIRE WORLD WILL HEAR, “HE HAS COME, HE HAS GONE.”

NOTHING CARRIES DIVERSE TEMPTATIONS MORE THAN MONEY
- FAITH EXPLAINED preached on 6th September 2015, Page 47 from verse 44.44There is nobody sitting down in this most holy Faith who is an adult who doesn’t know the time he or she was fixing his or her eyes on Christ and the time he or she looked away.[Sure!!!]If you cannot separate the two, you are a liar. If you say you do not know, come before Me and speak to Me,… But nobody came.…tell Me you do not know or deny that you never looked away.
- 45I am not mentioning any name but your names are there. You are in the 99.5 percent. THIS IS FAITH, THE KEY THAT UNLOCKS THE GATE OF HEAVEN. THIS IS THE KEY TO THE TRANSLATION. THIS IS THE KEY TO EVERYTHING.
- Page 58 from verse 3. [Excerpt from the Message, “The personality we are having dealings with.” Preached on the 1st day of November, 1998 by Bishop Okey Paul.]3Let me tell you what helped me from the very onset, from the day I heard the voice, “I have anointed you with my spirit.” That statement from Almighty alone vanished every unbelief in me. For I know what it means for God to anoint a man with His Spirit.
- 4I RECOGNIZED THE LANGUAGE VERY WELL THAT THIS MAN DWELLING AMONG US HAS BECOME NO OTHER THING BUT CHRIST IN OUR OWN DAY. For there was nothing that made Jesus a different man if not that same anointing, for Christ means no other thing but the Anointed One.
- 5When did that anointing leave? Did it come and stay a while and leave? No! That was the day God spoke to me direct saying, “Tell my servant who is in charge of this church to purge himself now and in 7 days.”
- 6I never understood it until later. That I have to purge myself of the old leaven, of the old idea, of the old doctrine for it is my (God’s) power among my (His) people.
- I have been hearing. I have been hearing. Has he not judged himself? Are we not at the end? It is all over.
- Before I decided not to work with him, God had already marked him bad, but I used him for a long time to achieve My own purpose. He cannot enjoy My gifts of life and everything and go without doing something.
- Will I freely feed you, protect you, use My money to help you get married and even sponsored post-natal care and you just go away like that? You must pay for all.
- 7In other words, this is the hand of God in the camp. “My servant, get ready! Line up!” The message is THE PERSONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINS WITH, handled by Okey Nwamkpa.
- … THEN HOW CAN THAT GOD LEAD US AND WE COME HERE AND SEE HIM AS A MAN?”He is the one saying it o. Bishop! From Pastor to Bishop.
- 8“My wife was warning Me, she said, “Leave this oyibo people alone o-o-o.” You see! He was communicating with Ewald Frank, begging money together with Malachy Osuagwu, sending photographs of the congregation so that they will get dollars.
- 11LET ME TELL YOU, GOD DECIDED TO PRESERVE THIS FAITH. FOR YOU TO BE A MAN OF GOD AND RUN THIS RACE SUCCESSFULLY, GET READY. YOUR FAITH MUST BE TESTED. AND THE GREATEST TEST IS MONEY TEST WHEN YOU ARE IN NEED AND AT A TIME YOU ARE GREATLY IN NEED OF MONEY.
- 14If I am poor, I am poor for your sake. I have all it takes to be where every other person should be. … Sure!!! … I do not joke with that, I know that very well. I know that God took His time specially and specifically and molded Me for a purpose. And I know that very well. I do not learn anything before practicing it. At all.
- 15If I say I am learning, I know what I am learning. I am studying the people not that thing. By the people, I mean, the system to know whether it will be fitting to Me and to My belief. Sure!!!
- 16How many can resist the sight of naira and kobo today? … Nobody! Nobody! When one sees money, he or she has seen his or her god. Money had taken the place of God. One who is been urged to be patient will not listen.
- See where it is leading them. Money! Naira and kobo, dollars, Euro. Nobody hears, “Wait! Be patient with God.”You see them running helter-skelter, killing themselves.
- Oftentimes venturing outside and coming back empty-handed. Some come back in casket. Those who are here with us, not even one can earn honest living again. All of them are now indulging in yahoo and other forms of criminalities. Yet, holding Bible.
- Cheating has become a way of life. Whatever contract they want to engage in– anything they want to do with any man, cheating must be chipped in there.
- Instead of looking for a way to add value, they will be looking for a way to devalue themselves and devalue their output. This is true. This is pure truth.
- Give them a little contract. They will charge you. They will write “Made in England”, but they will buy “China”. Go to the mechanics and see what is happening there.
- Yet, it is found from among us. It is found from among us. I became a victim to the Apostle I trusted. I handed My vehicle to him over the years. You were witnesses.
- He was buying time and was collecting money for original from Me until one was returned when the engine knocked and the man they were buying the things from nearly killed him before us.
- The mechanic now told me the truth. He called him face to face. When we got to Iweka Road, we saw two different places. Yet, in our midst. That is just the little he knows.
- The same person was the person who carried goods to Aba, sold to a man and collected money when the man himself went to the warehouse and carried the goods and sold to another person, claiming to be innocent also and a stranger.
- The same person started his life by faking certificates. He was placing certificates for sale – WAEC School Certificates and every other thing.
- He started organizing non-existing seminars for industrialists and so on. This is one who did not go to secondary school, but always wearing suit. I am talking about John Abazie. And they aligned themselves with the churches. Criminal syndicate!
- That of Isiala-Ngwa, all of them were ophthalmologists and damaged people’s eyes. Wherever they went to, it will be noised that an expert came all the way from Singapore and that he is giving out free eyeglasses, carries out eye surgeries, this and that. This is somebody who does not have a primary six certificate.
- He will be going about with a big bag and tables until luck ran against two of them. Yet, they were in this Faith of Christ, claiming to be our members at Isiala-Ngwa. Nwabueze and Ngozi.
- A cheat is a cheat. The moment you mention one, you have mentioned the two. They know it is true. What caused the fight? They came to fight in My house. Did I fight with anybody?
- Was it not Okey Nwamkpa fighting Chikezie Ukasanya over My money? My money I volunteered to help Bro Chikezie Ukasanya. I invited him. He slept in My house. We were taking care of him. We wanted to establish him. A familied man without any occupation. Then, the Pastor drove in and war took off.
- I am not preaching human beings. I am preaching Myself.
- 16How many resist the sight of naira and kobo today? Nobody! What is pushing you about, forcing you to deny your faith? Money! What is making you to be unfaithful? Is it not the pursuit of naira and kobo?
- Beware of covetousness which is idolatry. Nobody is self-satisfied. Nobody is contented with what he or she has.
- 17Have you ever paused one day, have you ever prayed your own personal prayer with a view to finding out how the Son of Man is being sustained financially, with His enormous financial responsibilities which He can never dodge? Alleluia!
- This is the matter at stake. This is 2016 o. Is it not the matter at stake today, even yesterday? Remember that as at that time, I was living in this house. By 2015, I was already here. I packed in on October 01, 2014.
- I was in my full-time business. Did it stop Me? When I was even a civil servant, it did not stop Me. I started financing everybody from the beginning.
- 18“What is more, the Lord starved Me from morning till night. No food. No water. Just thinking of worldly things. I am giving you true testimony. I am not exaggerating. I have witnesses.”
- To those who will believe. But My joy is that many saw Me live. Many saw all these things. Some volunteered to help, but I told them I needed no help. Go and help yourselves.
- 18 … I have witnesses.” Thank you!19Some of them are still here. Pastor Christian is still here and many others. So, this thing I am saying is contained in the Message.
- 20“They came with thousands, and seeing that the Lord has manifested His gift, everywhere was money. … Money, money, money everywhere.
- 22“They said, Brother, come and work for us. Tell us how much we would pay you every month. Money is not the problem here,…”Brethren were witnesses.
- 24This was the testimony I was sharing with My wife last night. We were deliberating about this faith and all we have been passing through. … Sure!!!
- 25 … I was wondering whether they could give Me chance to run this Ministry and how much they will be paying Me as a price for your souls. … At the price for what? Your souls.
- 26IN EVERY TEMPTATION, THE EYES OF THE LORD ARE THERE. … The eyes of the LORD are there.… IN EVERY TRIALS THAT COME YOUR WAY, CHECK BY YOUR SIDE, THERE IS GOD THERE. …Amen!!! During the storms of life, He is there. When the tempest is rising, He is there.… IF YOU CAN ONLY LOOK UP, A VOICE WILL SPEAK.
- 34 … It pays to be patient with God. Amen!!! For faith is patient. Faith is patient. Faith is what? Patient. A patient dog eats the fattest bone.
- 44Brother Mike came. He was among the Brethren that came to My house. He reminded Me of it immediately, “Brother, do not forget what happened before. This is the devil.”Sure!!!
- If there is any good advise he has given Me, it is that one because pressure was on Me from both sides.
- The contract was a mouth-watering contract, but the money, to Me, was nothing to compare with human souls. I decided to take the wisest counsel, and there is no regret whatsoever.
- That which I lacked in the beginning, they are with Me here. Now, I lack nothing.
- 45“Pilgrims, pilgrims, stranger! What is this journey costing you? Let me tell you, you will not know what is in you until you get money. You will not know what you hate and what you love until you have the means to be rich.”Is there truth in it?
- Sister Faith, you have become quiet. Did you hear the Message? You do not know the spirit that controls you. You do not yet know the things you hate and the things you like until you become rich with money.
- Nothing carries diverse temptations more than money. I hope you are hearing it. If you do not have money, it has its own different temptation. If you have that money, it comes with its own temptation. That is why the Bible calls it unrighteous mammon.
- 48The person will become uncontrollably bad. Unless you are filled with the Holy Spirit before money comes. … Is it a lie Brethren?… If it is not that way, that money will publish your spiritual obituary. … Amen!!! And even physical.
- … You might be hanging on the faith, it is a mere cover so that whenever you die, you will be buried as one that served God.
- 49Yes, the so-called children of God can gather around your corpse,… “the so-called”…give you more than befitting burial only to say bye-bye to hell. We better be careful. We are talking about faith.
- 52Now, if God refuses to be with this church through grace of God, through justification by faith, which other way do you think you are going to obtain your own salvation?… The same person speaking.
- 53Can it be in our own age when He became a man… When God became a man. Brethren, what then drove this person away? Struggle for leadership. Is it not clear? Give Me Alpha and take Omega.
- 53Can it be in our own age when He became a man that that one should blind us because He speaks with us, plays with us, talks with us?”
- 56If believing God as a human being hinders all of us from obtaining salvation, the Bishop as at that time, filled with the Holy Spirit, made it clear that it should be known to us that we are all elected not unto salvation but to doom. Amen!!!
- GOD IS A HUMAN BEING – Did it stumble us? But it stumbled those who do not belong to God. But is God a human being? Has He been a human being from Creation?
- Who is stumbled? Who is stumbled. Those that did not proceed from Him. The unrighteous descendants of Adam. They are the people that are stumbled. They are the people that specialize in asking God unnecessary questions, “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
- 57“You can be elected unto doom, equally, you can be elected unto eternal salvation. Because all that were saved by grace of God, they were saved when God was a man.
- Who spoke? The then Bishop. Please search out that Message. what is the title of that Message? THE PERSONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH by Okey Nwamkpa [1998].Search for it in the Library. I have My own – KNOWING the personality we are having dealings with. Seach for that Message. Brethren, is it not good to be read?
- 58If in your own age we want God to bring the old way of salvation, when the word of God said that God has brought out a different way of salvation, different from the way of old, different from the law; if this church will close their eyes and then keep on bringing unbelief and doubt, the moment grace of God is removed from this church, let it be known to you that no flesh can be saved.
- Brethren, have you seen it now? Which means, he was sure he was perishing. No wonder he announced it.
- You that are here, have you heard? Have you heard? Okay o! 1993, 1998 and 2015.
- 59 … ONE FOOLISH THING IS THAT, WHEN WE FALL INTO MESS, WE BECOME BLIND. WE FORGET OUR EXPERIENCES. … What? … ONE FOOLISH THING IS THAT, WHEN WE FALL INTO MESS, WE BECOME BLIND. WE FORGET OUR EXPERIENCES.
- Do you think he is mad saying all these things I mean – knowing that he will fulfill them? I do not think he knew he must fulfill them. He should be pitied.
- 59 … WE WILL EVEN FORGET THE VISION WE HAD BEFORE WE EVEN MEET THE BADGER SKIN. … The Badger skin is the personality. The vision we had before we came into contact with Him. That is, when we fall into a mess, we forget all our experiences. Everything! Our mouths will be open to talk nonsense.
- Instead of seeking solution for the problems we created for ourselves, we will try to say things so that people will take sides with us. Brethren, are these things not happening?
- Let me say it so that people will take sides with me so that it will seem as if you are been afflicted, even when you know that what you are saying are all lies.
- You see why your faith should not rest on any other person but Christ revealed in your day.
- Anybody whose faith rested on him [Okey Nwamkpa] do you not see that the person has met his doom?
- 59… WE WILL EVEN FORGET HE THAT IS DWELLING AMONG US.60WE WILL EVEN FORGET THE MIRACLES WE WERE PARTAKERS OF AND GREATTHINGS THAT HAVE VINDICATED HIS CALLING. OUR HEARTS WILL BE BIASED, FACED ONLY ON THAT THING THAT HAS FILLED OUR HEARTS.”
- Brethren, did it fulfill? Is there any confession of a dying evil man greater than this one? Someone prophesied about his death wrote obituary notice, wrote the funeral oration, sang funeral hymns, attended his own burial, feasted, fired funeral gunshots and danced to his own funeral song.
- Have you seen why God called him a fugitive and a vagabond? And so shall he remain until he will go back to the dust. That he will not die. He will liveto see the end of this Ministry and what will become of the son of man.
- Is it not where I am now? He is filled with fear now because he knows the truth. He knows what is happening. And he knows where we are heading to. Yes!
- Is Kelechi not in the cooler? Has he not abandoned Isiala-Ngwa and run back to Onitsha, but refused to walk on the streets? Have any of you ever met him on the street? But his wife told you that he is here in Onitsha.
- Why did he detail his wife to come here to see Me. Is he mad? He should come here himself.
Brethren, The Resurrected Body is in the Bride. Who will speak and it will come to pass? God! Remember that is the One Still Small Voice speaking in the midst of many Voices, but His own is distinct, hidden in simplicity somewhere in the wilderness. A Voice away from all! The Message of the Son of Man can be summarized in a statement titled, “Heaven made possible.” Do you know that He was born under the law? And lived under the law? Do you know that? But having a Ministry to liberate as many as were in bondage to those laws

IT IS ALL OVER
- FAITH EXPLAINED preached on 6th September 2015, Chapter 6 [Look into the state of your family] Page 75 from verse 2.
- 2REMEMBER WE ARE DISCUSSING THE ORIGINAL BATON, THE FOUNDATION FAITH. FOR WHAT YOU TOOK OFF WITH IS FAITH, WHAT YOU WILL PRESENT AT THE END IS FAITH. YOU WILL NEVER PRESENT ANY OTHER THING. What?
- Are we at the end? You see why God said, “Go home! Go and take a second look at yourself to see whether you are still holding unto that Faith and progressively manifesting it, lest it turns out that you are holding the Faith in your brain, in your mouth and in your heart, but not in your action.”
- You do not have the practical side of the Faith. You are holding the theoretical side – the paper side. Go and think about it. It is all over. Mark what I am saying here today.
- Nobody has asked Me a question why I have decided to upload the Message meant for April 03, 2025. I uploaded it ahead of time. But I have been saying it because from the look of things, nobody can predict what is about to take place.
- But one thing is certain. Armageddon has opened and no going back. I told My family members, “Get ready! You are leaving the scene anytime from now.” That was My salutation to all of them.“Get ready! You are leaving the scene. Everybody, the stage is set.” That is what I am saying to My Family.
- If you are a member of My Family, am I not talking to you? Maybe when I talk about Family, you think I have somebody somewhere. Who is taking care of Me here? Is it not My Family? Where are you? Are you not in My Family? Your trouble is My trouble, but you do not know. You are only laying claims to this Family with your mouth but not with your heart.
- 2REMEMBER WE ARE DISCUSSING THE ORIGINAL BATON, THE FOUNDATION FAITH,… The original Baton!…FOR WHAT YOU TOOK OFF WITH IS FAITH, WHAT YOU WILL PRESENT AT THE END IS FAITH. YOU WILL NEVER PRESENT ANY OTHER THING. FOR THIS IS THE KEY THAT OPENS THE DOOR.
- 3WHAT IS HINDERING YOU FROM HAVING FAITH IN HIM WHOM THE LORD HAS SENT IN YOUR DAY, I BELIEVE IT IS NO OTHER THING THAN THIS MESSAGE. THE SIMPLICITY IS STUMBLING MANY,… What?…THE SIMPLICITY IS STUMBLING MANY,IF NOT ALL.
- 4If He shouts and makes great noise like the thunderstorm, all knees will bow down. If He demonstrates Himself and His power in a flaming fire, every knee must bow down. True or false? If He sweeps across like a flood, all flesh will acknowledge He is the Almighty.
- 5But now He has appeared in weakness, not in His strength but in His weakness as a human being with every type of weakness that is associated with human beings, it has become the greatest stumbling block.
- 6Be very careful that you are not fulfilling dangerous prophecies. Amen!!! For before you were born, the Lord has placed on the way to Zion, the City ofGod, a stumbling block – a Rock of offence – where people stumble at His Word.
- 7ONLY THOSE THAT WILL OVERCOME THIS STUMBLING BLOCK WILL FIND THEMSELVES IN PARADISE. AND THERE IS NO OTHER INSTRUMENTS, NO OTHER EQUIPMENTS THAT CAN HELP YOU TO SURMOUNT IT IF NOT FAITH,… If not Faith.…FOR FAITH DOES NOT HAVE ANY STUMBLING BLOCK. True or false?
- 8FAITH RECOGNIZES NO OBSTACLE. FAITH CRUSHES ALL CHALLENGES. FAITH IS ALWAYS OPTIMISTIC – VERY POSITIVE. FAITH IS CONSTANTLY SAYING “I AM ABLE.” EVEN IF OTHERS WILL FAIL, FAITH WILL ALWAYS SAY, I MUST SUCCEED WHERE OTHERS FAILED. Amen!!!
- 9WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BELIEVE IN A MAN? WHATEVER IT TAKES TO BELIEVE IN A MAN IS WHAT IT TAKES TO BELIEVE IN GOD FOR GOD IS A MAN. True or false?
- 10“We stumble over the simplicity of God”, preached 9thFebruary, 2014 at the Household of God Onitsha by Apostle Peter Odoemena, the Son of Man. The Supreme Intelligence. I was still in Benjamin.
- 11“IF MY SIGNATURE IS NOT THERE, YOU WILL BE RETURNED; YOU HAVE MISSED THE WAY! ROUTE YOUR PRAYERS, ROUTE YOUR EVERYTHING, YOUR CORRESPONDENCE THROUGH THE APPROPRIATE CHANNEL. IT MUST SURELY RECEIVE ATTENTION. Sure!!!
- 12BUT WHERE YOU ROUTE IT WRONGLY, IT WILL END IN THE WASTE PAPER BASKET. FINISH! NO FILE FOR IT BECAUSE YOU DID NOT ROUTE IT VERY WELL.”
- 13You may be expecting a reply not knowing that your letter did not get to Me because it was wrongly addressed. Brethren, is there truth there.
- 14“MAKE YOUR PLEA, SUBMIT IT THROUGH THE APPROPRIATE CHANNEL, YOU MUST BE HEARD, PROVIDED YOURHEART IS RIGHT.Is your heart right with God? MAKE SURE AT ALL TIMES, YOUR HEART IS RIGHT WITH GOD AND WITH YOUR FELLOW MAN. FINISH!”
- 16“Do not allow your business to condemn you to eternal hellfire because, it is a family business. Number one partner should be your wife. Number two, your children. If you are doing any business which your wife cannot stand for, your wife does not know anything about it, your transactions with people, truly speaking, you are a criminal you are hiding many things away from her.
- It is incontestable. Who then are the reason for the business? Are they not the people to whom you take back the proceeds?
- 19“THAT THING WHICH YOU ARE HIDING FROM YOUR WIFE THAT IS THE CRIMINALITY SIDE OF YOUR BUSINESS.”Period! Is there truth there Brethren? The criminality side has always been hidden from the wife.Sure!!!
- “It is that secret side of your business which no other person should know but you that makes it a criminal business. Sure!!!
- 26This is the family of God entrusted to My care. Whether you like it or not, this is the order. Your inability to live by it marks you out of this family, [Amen!!!]for you are bringing reproach. Amen!!!
- 27If you are having the fear of the unknown, it goes to show that you do not trust your wife. Is it a lie Brethren? Fear of the unknown, “Lest she will run away with my money. Lest she will carry everything and give her people.”
- 28That goes to show that from the beginning you are still nursing the feeling that if your wife will have her way that she will kill you.
- 29For the easiest way for a woman to carry the wealth of the husband is by killing her husband. And I want to make it clear, the easiest creature to kill is a human being. It is easier to kill a human being than to kill a rat.[A fowl!] I will not tell you how but go and think about it.
- Is it a scarce commodity? Rat poison is very much available. How much is it sold? Is it not something one can purchase here in the market? Is it not a matter of taking it and then lie down in death if there is nothing protecting Me?
- Do you know how many I drank in the past? Do you know the people that have put it or the ones they put in food? They are frustrated because when I eat the food, the person that put something into my food will die first, while I live on.
- So, it is better that the person did not put it, knowing that if he or she puts it, he or she will not remain alive, for the person must die first, and nothing will happen to Me. So, let the person that wants to leave this world prematurely put something in My food.
- 30Shut up your mouth! Men now talk anyhow more than women. The days are gone when women are being feared, dreaded because of their mouth. Men are now worse. The day when women are gossips are over. Men are now gossips more than women…. Is it a lie?
- God Himself is standing farther from men. Did they see it with their eyes? Did they hear it with their ears? Are they deaf or forgetful? Have they not been hearing it?
- 32Let Me tell you. About 85 percent of families not in this faith only, worldwide are being taken care of by their wives without men caring. Is it true?
- We have a situation where married women cater for themselves and bear all their burdens. Go and see what is happening.
- If you tell the woman that this man she is about to marry already has six wives, she will tell you, “Let me be the seventh wife. I do not want money. I just want to answer a man’s name.” After the marriage she will still return to Nollywood and continue with her business.
- 35 … A MAN THAT IS A MAN PRAYS HONESTLY THAT NO RENEGADES WILL EVER EMANATE FROM HIS FAMILY. LEST, HIS INTEGRITY WILL BE DRAGGED TO THE MUD.
- That is the much we want to hear there. Let us go over to the Message, THE PERSONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH. I wanted us to go through the original book, FAITH, but now, I have changed My mind because we have shifted over to another place. You have heard enough of family messages. You will still hear it o. It is vast. Let us first of all understand ourselves.
Book review
THE PERSONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH
BY
BISHOP OKECHUKWU PAUL
……And laws are no longer for us who strive hard to be saved, transferred us from the laws of Moses into the laws of the Son of Man who is the Justifier of the living and the dead, who even the dead are even looking up to, for without Him, they have no hope of even the first resurrection, talk more of Paradise. Why? The Elohim is here, but how many believe that?
THE SON OF MAN
EVERY SIGN FROM GOD IS A STOP SIGN; Preached on Sunday 25th June 2017 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 17 vs. 6
12
RE-EXAMINE YOUR SPIRITUAL BACKGROUND (1)
- THE PERONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH preached on 1st November 1998 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Bishop Okey Paul.
- WORD IN BLOCK: From the Message, BEWARE OF ESOTERIC LANGUAGES preached on 24th April 2004 by THE SON OF MAN. Pg. 75 vs. 11-12.
- 11What people – religionists – claimed that God is, is not what God is. Junk!
- Junk god! Junk prophets! Junk pastors! Junk apostles! Junk evangelists! Junk deacons! Junk elders! Junk! Phonies!
- 12If you are in Me[THE SON OF MAN], nothing will happen to you. However, if you are in Church or religion, you will die and perish. Sure!!!
- Page 23 from verse 5. 5I know that if it was in the past–If actually it was in the past, no shirt or trousers will leave this Fellowship today without being dirty. …Crying! Weeping! Sorrow for unbelief.…No skirt and blouse, no wrapper and blouse would leave this Fellowship today without being dusty.
- 9 … Job 42:1-5, TLB.[1]Then Job replied to God:[2]“I know that you can do anything and that no one can stop you.[3]You ask who it is who has so foolishly denied your providence.
- 10It is I. I was talking about things I knew nothing about and did not understand, things far too wonderful for me.
- 11 [4]“You said, ‘Listen and I will speak! Let me put the questions to you! See if you can answer them!’[5]“But now I say, ‘I had heard about you before, but now I have seen you, …” Take this Message very seriously.
- 12There is no wise man of God or wise woman of God, no wise church can be foolish that when God raises an accusations against them, that they will rejoice over them or go ahead to put up a defense.
- 13Every wise man of God or every wise woman of God, every true Church of God knows God very well that He has the ability to destroy a man or a woman whether you are innocent or guilty.
- 14For that reason, no wise man of God or woman of God can ever wrestle with his [or her] Maker, for he knows his Maker very well that when He rises up to destroy, nobody can stop Him.
- Who handled this Message? Our former Bishop Okechukwu Paul. Are you saying it in a low tone? If you do not stand up for this truth, tomorrow, we will hear, “Once upon a time”.
- Whether you want to believe it or not, today is My day. I initiated the Message by Myself quite unlike previous weeks.
- 26Every Church of God takes God at His Word. And the mouthpiece of God in every generation had the mind of God in that generation. … Sure!!!
- … He assumes the Office of God. He does what? He appropriates to Himself the Name of God or God appropriates His Name, whichever way you look at it.
- Do you understand what we are saying here? What you are hearing today, many may not know it until we post it. They may have other Sermon Books, but concerning the ones we are considering here, it is unknown to them.
- Page 37 from verse 15. 15I am speaking with natural things, but if we cannot understand natural things, how can we understand spiritual things? If you are pleased in Onitsha Church because of this grievous iniquity that is found among us, I am not pleased with you.
- The grievous iniquity is unbelief due to over-familiarity.
- 16Rather, we have to take a stand. That was why I was happy when our Brother Chigozie said, “I want to warn all these people that are rebelling against this Ministry – this truth. They should take their time.” Brother Chigozie – Brother Chigozie Ibekwe.
- 19Sometimes, we look at Him from the flesh, even when we cannot rake up any case of reckless behaviour before us. Yet, we take him sometimes very human. I said, assuming in exercising of this faith, which every man is obligated to exercise his faith.
- 1998! The same year grace of God was fully revealed. Bench rabbis – pulpit rabbis, one side. The son of man, the other side.
- 23 … I was still talking to my family under anointing, and I said, “How do you think people will take the son of man if we really believe that a man can lie down with a woman, yet it is not a sin.”
- 24I said, “What if He rises up one day in the local church, picks up a Sister– we even see Him with that Sister. We really believe by the Word of God that it is not even sin because we are saying Amen to it.” Drinking beer and alcohol, we say Amen to it.
- 25I said that if it came to a point of picking a woman, lying with a woman, having even sexual intercourse with that woman, can anybody– any of you take Him as a Man of God again, even when you know very well that by the Scripture, He never committed any sin? 1998!
- 30If it happens to a particular Sister, will you forever at all see Him as a Man of God again? I am trying to help you. Church, listen to me. I am not joking. That was where I rested my foot. Amen.
- 1998! This is so that you re-examine again. Find out where your stumbling stone lies. Find out where your problem lies.
- Remember, this Message was not included in what we heard yesterday, but look at how God brought it in.
- Page 44 from verse 1. 1…when He has not even gone to this extent, people hardly take His Word seriously. Sometimes, people take His Word so casual. If He has acted this way, we will boldly deny that statement we make, “See no man in the flesh.” We will crown his own as another thing because deep in our hearts, somewhere yearning to find fault with Him. What?
- The same thing we heard this morning! Is there not a cause? He said, “Go to the beginning. Re-examine your spiritual background. Armageddon has opened. Only those that have that implicit, unshakable, unqueriable faith will enter. They will survive. The rest will be a part of the destruction.”
- Faith of Christ only, not faith-plus, and not faith-minus. By plus, I mean your reasoning, your thinking and your interpretation before you come to your god, your traditions, your customary rules and regulations which vary from village to village and from community to community.
- Which one will God endorse that will be universal? Which one will God adopt as the universal standard – a way of life.
- By one spirit are we baptized into one body. One God, one character, one faith, one doctrine, one baptism, one heaven or Paradise. We do not have two sons of men. One Son of Man. One Voice. Listening to the voice of more than one brings about confusion.
- … That is why people foolishly kill themselves.
- Do you know that this Message has been in the website all along? All of them are in the websites. You can browse it. And people are seeing them, going through them and balancing everything. The websites have not been destroyed. Nobody has even queried any of the contents.
- Rather, they are seeing nothing but Christ and Christ alone. Original Faith restored. Why can you not call it original Faith?
- What if you happen to be King Solomon, who although he had over a thousand women around him, his own woman friend he impregnated openly – publicly – gave birth to a son in whom he delighted so much.
- Argument arose as to who will take the child. The woman insisted that she must take the child, but Solomon said no. Did anybody make noise?
- The owner of the woman who is the King and the Emperor in Ethiopia did not find fault with the woman. Rather, he insisted that the child must be brought back and that he needed the child more than King Solomon, “After all, King Solomon has more than a thousand women. He should raise another son. But for this one? No!”
- He permitted the wife to go back. If they dare say anything, do not believe. After much argument and persuasion which lasted for two weeks, they continued pleading with him again. Solomon ended it anointing that child with olive oil. A young man!
- The woman said, “How can he be King in Ethiopia without the instrument for kingship? Please, please, please! If we have found favour and you want him to be this King, for that is your first son, you know.”
- And the ancient manuscript said that he was a carbon copy of King Solomon, for he was very tall and handsome in appearance.
- Solomon went and brought the Ark of God that was recovered and handed it over to this boy as instrument for leadership that God is with him in Ethiopia. Then what happens to you as parent of the boy?
- As at then, the woman was already on her way to Ethiopia. He has built a house for the woman in her home country and settled her.
- On coming home, the king saw what was happening and started dancing with the family saying, “At last, the God of Israel has blessed my family with a son from no less a personality than King Solomon. To crown it all, the Ark of the God of Israel is now with me.”
- Brethren, if this is the way of friendship between a man and a woman, then it is beautiful. I am saying that even that heathen had a better revelation than Solomon. Do you understand what we are saying?
The Resurrected Body is alive and will remain alive forevermore. (Selah). He is the same Voice, the same Spirit, the same Christ coming to round off the program. He is no longer walking in the midst of the seven candle sticks, but coming here, live! He never sent anybody, but He came Himself. And because He has revealed His Original Body, what else do you want?
THE SON OF MAN
FIVE-FOLD WORSHIP EXPLAINED (OFFERING IS AN ACT OF WORSHIP); Preached on Sunday 16th August 2017 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 130 vs. 9 – 10
13
RE-EXAMINE YOUR SPIRITUAL BACKGROUND (2)
- THE PERONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH preached on 1st November 1998 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Bishop Okey Paul. Page 44 from verse 3.
- 3I used to drag my family to a point where there is nothing they will see as long as God’s Word backs it up, nobody will say, “This is strange.” And there is nothing they will ever see that will make them at all, at all to deny the Deity of Christ in the Church. …
- Have you heard it? Have you heard it? Check that Message of 2015 encouraging you to look into the state of your family. Find out whether your family is following or they have already withdrawn, for your family can withdraw and you know it not because you raised no standard.
- What if the man is the one indoctrinating his family? This is because a man who is an unbeliever will indoctrinate his family so that they will not believe. They will become selective believers. They will believe the one that will favour him, but the one that he sees as evil, he will not endorse that one. True or false?
- But is there anything evil from God? A believer believeth all things, for God is totally good to all his children. I say, “TOTALLY GOOD.” Is it not in the Scriptures? Totally, absolutely good!
- REFERENCE: Romans 8:28, KJV. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
- ANY DAY YOU TRACE SOMETHING BAD IN GOD, THAT IS THE DAY YOU HAVE PUBLISHED THAT YOU DO NOT BELIEVE IN HIM. PERIOD! CAN THE ALMIGHTY GOD COMMIT INIQUITY?
- 3 … Why did I use this your common everyday great event? Everyday great event. 1998 by Bishop Okey Nwamkpa.
- 6Assuming he joined Brethren yesterday and too beer, that beer will be another story, “You know, son of man drank beer”, as if He drinking his own beer is something special. As if it is a part of the Message we are preaching.
- People will tell stories around that one, “Do you know that Brother drank beer?” As if there is something special about His taking beer, for He is a man like you.
- You must be in the faith of Christ before you fall away. True or false? Remember 1998. It was during the hot period. Look at the extent he played his own role as a Bishop, helping Brethren to understand the grace of God that bringeth salvation.
- 9There is nothing that comes out of Him that will make us to underrate the Vessel, … Amen!!! … for that has always been the way God has been operating from the very beginning.
- What then pushed him out? Brethren, have you seen it. Somebody walked in the evil forest and was captured by the spirit thereof. You had seen 99. Yet, he could not make it to hundred.
- What then pushed him out? Money! Money! Money! He became a Judas because of Justice Umezulike’s money and empty promises which never materialized.
- Be very careful about who is using you against yourself.
- What happened at last? After disappointing him, the same person invited the police to arrest him. He [Justice Umuzulike] locked up his gate and bowel of mercy against him and made him a wanderer, calling him a criminal.
- He [Okey Nwamkpa] could not get the bus promised. He could not get the money promised. He could no longer continue in the Fellowship with the Saints. And the man [Umezulike] became a politician. He joined politics, but ended his political and court life in humiliation which resulted in humiliating death.
- The moment you abandon the faith of Christ, you will be approving for your family the things God hates and then disapproving for your family whatever God has approved.You and God and your counsels will be walking in opposite direction. Crosscheck youR experience.
- Children, be on the alert! We are trying to catch you young because time is against all of you here. You are privileged children, for without this Family, I do not know whether you would have known anything called Christ, talk less of this Faith. Yet, you are all of age.
- 10GOD CANNOT TALK TO HIS PEOPLE WITHOUT USING A MAN. AND THAT MAN MUST BE 100% MAN, MANIFESTING every behaviour a man should manifest. Yet, 100% God.
- I want you to see that this man never handled false doctrine even as confirmed by ancient manuscripts. Assuming he remained in our midst until we started reading ancient documents which he did not even see one, not even the Archaeological parchments. He never saw one. If he had stayed until this one, I mean, nobody would have seen his back again.
- I was in my Pastor’s house last night…. That should be Nnamdi Ogbogu. … After talking to him with the wife on a lot of things, I closed by reading a Scripture. And that was 1st Peter chapter 2,…
- He does not visit any poor Minister. Any Brother that does not have money, Okey Nwamkpa cannot visit that person. He does not visit people where he cannot get something in return. That is why he can never visit a family without carrying empty bag on top of his motorcycle, from where he will load materials that will come from there.
- And he can never visit a family without presenting his personal problems. That was what nullified his faith. This is because he that pays the piper dictates the tune.
- 16If a matter is called up against me, and I know I did not do that thing, and knowing He that is calling me on that matter, there is no amount of pressure that will ever cause me to manifest an attribute of rebellion against that person.
- Did he not flout it? He even climbed a seat under that anointing of promised money [political money] by governor Chimaroke Nnamani through Umezulike, the chief judge.
- Are you enjoying the presence of the Cloud?
- Page 52 from verse 4. 4We know what we passed through before that photograph (of the Pillar of Cloud) was taken. Amen and Amen!
- 5Where I read in the Book of Job, Job kept on talking, talking and talking, opening his mouth carelessly, talking different different things, proving his innocence.
- 6From chapter 38 of [the Book] of Job, God started speaking. And when God kept on speaking, Job became speechless. He could not defend himself again. [Sure!!!]He could not clear his matter again. … His mouth was sealed.… He that was claiming to be innocent became dumbfounded. He was trying to prove to God that he was right,…And God was wrong. …but when God spoke, Job’s folly was made manifest. Sure!!!
- 8There is no true man of God, no true woman of God, no true child of God that can stand before his Maker and try to claim his innocence. By and by, God must rake up a case against you and destroy you. 1998! Bishop Okechukwu Nwamkpa.
- 10Like the cases that were raked up today where Brother Martin was called. …14…Brother Martin said that the son of man never said so.
- Do you know the Martin? Martins O. He was here with us along with Okey’s wife, Ijeoma.
- 17Whenever I discuss with you, whether in your bedroom or in your parlour, remember, occasion may come up one day that will cause me to say exactly all we discussed on the matter. Even from the pulpit.
- 20I have known the son of man so well that I do not believe, for any reason, that He can tell lies against any of us. I do not believe it. …
- After many years of acquaintance with Me from 1992 to the year 2003. Hear his conclusion. That is his finding. I do not know about you.
- Why should I lie against you? Am I fearing your destruction? I mean, lest you destroy me. What are you going to do to Me? I really do not know what that thing looks like.
- You know one thing with human beings. They take respect to mean fear. Respect is not fear. Fear is not respect.
- Often times, we respect ourselves, thinking that he that is involved will know that whatever that happens is in accordance with our faith and that we respect one another so that you still hold unto your integrity.
- But when you begin to give it wrong interpretation, that is the time you have already destroyed yourself, for the fullness shall be made manifest.
- 20… If He is saying something about you, it may be lies in your eyes in the sense that it is what somebody told Him. And that is not a lie because He is basing it on what somebody had told Him.
- 21If it is what God has revealed to Him, you know very well that He has never failed before and cannot fail. …
- You know very well that He has never failed before and can never fail. Though it tarries, wait for it. It must come to pass. What it will take is time.
- If you do not want it to come to pass, lie flat. Lie flat! Cry unto God again. Amend your ways. He will withdraw it.
- Otherwise, once it sets in motion, you are arriving at that thing. You are arriving at that thing.
- If Kelechi Uwakwe had taken notice of My warnings, do you think he will be where he ended? He said, “That which I hated from the beginning, has at last fallen upon me.”
- Were you not there when I was warning, “Kelechi Uwakwe, take note. If you are not careful with your ministry in the way you are comporting yourself, that thing which put you out of the Faith in the beginning must put you out in the end. If you are wise and intelligent, your prayers always should be, “O God, let the end of my life in this Faith be by far better than my beginning.”
- Did I tell him so? Look at what he wrote. He said that what he has been avoiding all these years has finally captured him.
- And what is that thing? Very clear! Very clear! A bad woman for a wife. A bad woman for a wife. Promising women marriage when you know you do not have the capacity. You know you do not mean it.
- You think that the only way you can befriend a woman is to promise her marriage? Before you know it, you have promised marriage to over 20 people. I hope you are hearing Me?
- And knowing you as a man of God, everybody showed interest. At the end of the day, you impregnated one for a wife. What happened to the rest?
- 40Let me tell you. It is the most terrible sin a man can commit. You may accuse the Church which is an unpardonable sin. …Which is what? … an unpardonable sin. If a man or a woman is accused of unpardonable sin, pray hard for you to wriggle out of it,… Do what?… pray hard for you to wriggle out of it, because automatically, you are perishing. That is the language.
The Resurrected Body is alive and will remain alive forevermore. (Selah). He is the same Voice, the same Spirit, the same Christ coming to round off the program. He is no longer walking in the midst of the seven candle sticks, but coming here, live! He never sent anybody, but He came Himself. And because He has revealed His Original Body, what else do you want?
THE SON OF MAN
FIVE-FOLD WORSHIP EXPLAINED (OFFERING IS AN ACT OF WORSHIP); Preached on Sunday 16th August 2017 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 130 vs. 9 – 10
14
RE-EXAMINE YOUR SPIRITUAL BACKGROUND (3)
- THE PERONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH preached on 1st November 1998 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Bishop Okey Paul. Page 70 from verse 4.
- 4… God spoke to him and said, “Among My people, I have found a people that cannot discern their right hand from their left hand.”Amen!
- Think about ignorant set of people, when a man cannot discern between the right hand and the left hand. Which means he cannot discern between right and wrong. Is it not true? How can you handle the case of such a human being? You see where mercy and love must project.
- 6When the Holy Ghost was telling us what the people said, He said, “When a man has missed his way to the Guide, he will be acting strange, doing things contrary to his real nature.”Is it a lie Brethren?
- 7Thus, you cannot be in your real mind and demand that your head be cut off when you know there is a way out.
- That I permitted this to be read today, this is the greatest grace God has showered on us today and tied the two Messages together.
- 8What has almost killed our Pastor is happening in his home. How I wish he will go and put his house in order…. Pastor Chizoba, have you heard it? When you hear, “You are the first Pastor God gave to Onitsha”, the rest were appointments under horrible and horrifying conditions.
- I called Pastor Dan a baby of circumstance. A Pastor of circumstance, that somebody must be in the pulpit. When Nnamdi was no longer there, Okey Nwamkpa was excommunicated as Bishop and Christian Dike was benched, must the pulpit be empty.
- You are the only one that was picked from childhood, groomed very well in the teachings and doctrines of the Body of Christ, nurtured in a family. You saw everything in the family life.
- You were nurtured to light. I helped you to attain the highest education which no Pastor that pastored Onitsha ever attained. I gave you a menu morally, spiritually and physically, established you on a firm foundation and then, ordained you a Pastor. You cannot say you were not groomed.
- Finally, you have now been given a house and a wife with the son of man telling you, “Now, your race starts. You are now on your own, but be very sure and certain that what caused others to make shipwreck is now in your house and is now living with you as a wife. Your success will be determined by the lessons you learnt from the past. Your failure will be determined by the stupidity and blindness you exhibited over the years as if you are a foreigner.”
- From the time you identified with the Faith and you were brought down to Onitsha by THE SON OF MAN Himself to the time you were ordained a Pastor, you can check the number of years. Not even one had that privilege.
- Which means that the Word that you heard is certain. “You are going to be the last. You are the first ordained by God and given to Onitsha. You are going to be the last. It is now all in your hands. Mark what I said.”
- 9For as long as you are in the Church, you remain our Sister, our Brother. Do you know that if a man is guiding you that you do not know when you have missed your way?
- 11It takes the Guide also, if he discovers that he has missed his way, it is also him that can guide you back. Except he tells you that you people are missing your way, you cannot know that you have missed your way. In other words, the Guide cannot be wrong to he that is being guided. Whichever way he leads you is right. True or false?
- He is a regular. He is not a novice. He has been plying that high way. He knows all the pitfalls on that highway. He knows every dangerous curve on that highway. If you happen to follow that Fellow, you are in a perfect hand. The perfect Guide for the perfect journey.
- 16… That is why following God is following him like a baby. … What? Having a child-like Faith. It is a Message. It is in book form. Get it. It was handled by THE SON OF MAN.[POSSESING CHILDREN’S FAITH was preached by the son of man on Sunday 21st May 2001 at the Household of God Onitsha, Nigeria.]
- We are in a zombified Faith, following Christ as if you are a zombie. If you are not a zombie, you will never smell the Kingdom of Heaven. you can never smell the Kingdom of Heaven unless you are a zombie, for the Faith is a zombified Faith where we handle truth that resembles a lie, truth that is not meant for ‘wise’ people, but for foolish and unreasonable people.
- That is why Jesus was accused of having his own preaching and dealings among the ignorant people of His day, and not among the “wise people” – the Pharisees.
- That you are here now, anybody seeing you here or seeing you going away might be thinking, “Ah! This man is wonderful. Look at the ignorant set of people he gathered who He is deceiving. He knows He cannot deceive people like us. That is why He is deceiving these ones. Who means something among them? Look at children all through. It can never be well with this man. Little children he should have allowed to enjoy life with their mates in the block rosary.”
- 16… That is why following God is following Him like a baby. If you are carrying a little baby, he is fully relying on you. Throw him up, he would not fight back. Throw him down, he cannot fight back. He is just at your own mercy. 17But today, we are behaving as if we have a way out or we have an alternative. Things that should scare us do not scare us again…. 1998!We have gone far.
- 18If God is holding me by the corner, I should not be foolish to tell God, “You have held me for too long. I think this punishment is enough.” …I am happy you were there and saw how the Books came out.
- 18… It was Cain that made such statement in the Bible. Are you doubting me? 19I think that is what is causing our problem. We try to limit God. We try to feel that His measures are too much. He is taking too much.
- He flouted all. He found himself in a mess. He denied all, including the Messages He handled and the warnings he gave so that what he preached might come to pass. I will find a way to get it across to Kelechi Uwakwe.
- 24God is sovereign. What is sovereign? He that has the right to do whatsoever seemeth right in his own eyes. He reserves the right. … 1998!
- 44The moment we start having boldness, remember, there are some boldness that kills. Cain was bold before God, but that boldness killed him. …
- Destructive boldness. Boldness without humility. Boldness with pride. That is the problem. Cain lacked humility.
- You can be polite and still remain fair and firm. In a very polite way, you make your hearer to understand you and even reason with you, for God specializes in saying, “Come, let us reason together. Whatever might be that thing, you are being pardoned and washed away and you become whiter than snow.”
- REFERENCE: Isaiah 1:18, KJV. Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
- But when you are puffed up with pride, and you arrogantly and disrespectfully approach a leader who has the power to even eliminate you, while you are ranting and not talking, He will keep quiet. At the end, He will tell you, “Okay. I have heard you.”
- Once you turn away, He will look at you from head to toe, and then check the size of your grave that will accommodate you very well. That’s all.
- He will not strike immediately. He will allow you some time. When it fizzles out of your memory, He will come. He will come, spread his arms and say, “Embrace Me.”
- Then, you will think you are embracing a human being in love. Embrace and fall down. Embrace and die. If you are a man, He will give you a handshake. Shake and go to eternal hell.
- Yet, He will be among the sympathizers o. He will sympathize more than any other fellow.
- 45… When you deal with me or any minister, remember you are dealing with dual beings. 46We have the human side and the godly side. With the godly side we will tell you the mind of God, but with the human side, we can use it to reason together, eat together and laugh together.
- And that is him o, not Me. He was using the word “We” as if God has a deputy. That was when the idea of becoming deputy started coming up. After Him, na me!
- He then created one UN Secretary’s office. But he was the one I called Baruch, and he rejected and said that he cannot be secretary to Jeremiah. Now he arrogated to himself the office of the UN secretary general.
- And if I am transferred to Jos, he will be in Jos. Anywhere I am, there he will be, giving the impression that he is the one who knows Me more than any other.
- And the LORD saw it and spoke to him directly, “If you come to the point where you tell the Brethren that you know Me more than any of them or that you believe in Me more than any other, truly speaking, I will cause you to be very rash. You will blaspheme this Faith in less than 48hours, call Me devil and call this Faith devil. You will even call it occult. You will deny everything you have preached. I will cause you to go out there in the streets and publish it so that it will be impossible for you to say, “I am sorry.” You will behave rashly, to the point that you would not even have the face to come and say, “Consider me.”If it does not happen, know that I am not the son of man.”
- The Message is there. You are in danger of being called to question. Did it happen? It happened to the letter. I said that I will make him mad, and I made him mad so that the residue of men will fear Him.
- When Pastor Dan misbehaved before the Elders in My absence, I came back and it was reported to Me. He became arrogant. I placed him in the pulpit in the evening service and pulled everybody back with an instruction, “Stay there!”
- I stripped Myself off. I became Brother Odoemena, not Apostle and not THE SON OF MAN. Address Me as others. Call Me Brother Odoemena.
- I pulled everybody back. If I talk or ask you question, answer from the pulpit. Everybody pulled back. I was at the back.
- I asked him the first question. With pride and arrogance, he started running round that question. I said, “My friend, do not be funny. I am not funny here. Pay attention as I repeat this question.”
- I repeated the question. He became calm. I said, “The third time, that is all.” Immediately I said it, something happened.
- Were you there? [Pastor Chizoba answered, “Yes sir! I was there.”] You were there? Now, complete what took place. Tell the what you saw.
- Pastor Chizoba: I saw lightning. That is flash of light. That same light you have been hearing about. It was an evening Fellowship.
- THE LORD: It was not from the window. I was there. Brethren flanked the whole place. They left their seats and flanked everywhere. Even My wife was around.
- The light went from Me direct and straight to the pulpit. He jumped out. Immediately, he jumped out from the pulpit, the Brethren and the whole Elders fell flat.
- The light went forth the second time when I had not even completed My question. I said, “Okay. Before I will complete My question, your wife has a question to answer.”
- Did your husband commit this crime for which cause the whole Elders were accusing him? She said “Yes!” Sister, you were there that day.
- What was the effort you made to discourage him? She said, “Daddy, ask him! I warned him over and over. I tried to correct him, but the pride in him could not allow him to give me attention.”
- Brethren were still crying. He was lying flat. Every Tom, Dick and Harry, every infant was lying flat. My wife was in front, holding My leg and also lying flat. It was crying everywhere. It was a very big cry because they love him, but he hated himself.
- It took Me time before I got Myself back. I recalled the light. And that last question was not asked again. I did not ask that third one again.
- Rather, I gave him the last warning, “You did not learn your lesson from Kenneth Umeh. Maybe you decided to try Me. What happened to Kenneth did not teach you a lesson. Or were you among those that said that God has left Me and entered him?”
- The more I spoke, the more the mothers and the Elders were crying, until finally, I turned My back and asked him to get up. His lips blistered. He turned black. Was it not what took place?
- Even to lead him outside became a problem. His legs were shaking. His hands were also shaking. I commanded that he should be given a glass of water. His face turned black. Fear gripped everybody.
- And from that day, instead of people to rebel openly, they now leave the Faith. This is because I gave them instruction, “Instead of you to come and die here and disgrace yourself, go home! Go home and die in your house. Let Me remain innocent of everybody’s blood.”
- You see! Let us be careful. You are still infants. And I believe I can cope with you more than any other because I deal with you according to your ages, maturity and things like that.
- I see you as ignorant set of people that do not even know their left from their right. So, it is better for Me to start from the scratch and raise these ones that are malleable. I can beat you into shape. You have not become too stiff that you cannot bend again.
Are you not highly favoured? Have you heard it from the Son of Man? Do not expect another second coming. It is all over. The Last Sign is on the land. I am the Resurrection and the Life. The Resurrected Body is here. The Original Body is here. The Artificial Body is here. The pest house is the artificial body. This is the Original Body. This is the Resurrected Body and He told you that that time He resurrected, only those that were predestinated to see Him saw Him. On the day He was caught up in the Clouds, how many people were there in the mountain? Only those that were predestinated to be at Mount Olives. When He resurrected, only a few that were destined for that purpose saw Him. Thus He said, “Now, this is your day.” Do you expect the whole world to see Him? To know that He is here. Only for the Elects. Amen.
THE SON OF MAN
I AM THE WORD EXPLAINED VOL 1; Preached on Sunday 27 April 2014 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 76 vs. 36 – 39

RE-EXAMINE YOUR SPIRITUAL BACKGROUND (4)
- THE PERONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH preached on 1st November 1998 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Bishop Okey Paul. Page 85 from verse 1.
- 1Let me read the Bible before I come down. I would want you to know the consequence of the area we are heading to now.1998!
- He said he is helping you because of where we are heading to now. It was a very sharp bend that was negotiated. There was a vision that time of how we negotiated and Nnamdi fell off. The wife fell off before we negotiated it and many others.
- 2Living Bible – Galatians 3:12-14. How different from this way of Faith is the way of law, which says that a man is saved by obeying every law without one slip. …
- That is the way of the law, “Without one slip”.
- … But Christ has brought us out from under the doom of that impossible system…
- Who is the one now pushing people into it? You will be foolish, after knowing this truth that will give you eternal life, and you allow a human being born of a man to push you back to the clutch of the law again.
- What type of love is that? When I warned My wife and everybody, I said, “I cannot, because of the love I have for My friend who does not want to live, to commit suicide and join him.” Is it ever done? I will not even attend his burial. The moment you have decided to commit suicide, go and do it alone.
- This is where I love the Sister that wrote to the husband and they brought that letter to Me. She said, “Be sure that what binds us is marriage. There is no other article of Faith that binds the two of us together if not marriage. I volunteered to marry you because you volunteered to marry me.We are living together producing the fruit of marriage. And we all married in the Faith of Christ, desirous of eternally life. Any day you make a slip off the Faith, I am gone. The marriage ends that day. We must read it before THE SON OF MAN. Put up your own article concerning me.”
- Brethren, I read the two, and the two were speaking the same thing. I laughed at them.
- I asked them, “What if all of you will volunteer to stay together in the Faith, and on that day, I decide to take one and leave one? Or do I not have that right? What if I decide to abandon the two of you? You think this decision is what I will see? The decision is binding to you. You are intelligent.”
- William Branham said, “If your husband is leading you to hell, abandon him. If your wife is leading you to hell, abandon her.”
- Jesus said, “If your hand will lead you to sin– any part of your body, no matter how important it is, do what? Cut it off straightaway. It is better you enter Paradise without them than to have them complete and go to hell.”
- Why do I delight myself in going to a place where I will never recognize My spouse? If I go to hell, I would not recognize My wife. She would not know Me. I will not even know that she is there, because we will be hearing our voices, but we would not see each other. We are under torment – everlasting torment.
- I can only embrace her if I meet her in Paradise. It has been My prayer. She is the first fruit I will see and then My heart will be filled with joy.
- My parents are gone quite alright. I know that they are coming back, but I am desirous of seeing My wife more than My parents.
- If you go to hell, you will not see anybody. Do you think that a woman who is at the point of child delivery recognizes the presence of her husband? As long as she recognizes the presence of her husband and his voice, delivery has not started. Delivery has not started.
- When delivery sets in, she would not even know that there is somebody there. She does not recognize the presence of any human being. That is when we know that the appointed time has set in.
- 4… Now, God can bless the gentiles too… What? …Now, God can bless the gentiles too with this same blessing as Christians can have the promised Holy Spirit through this faith. Through what? This Faith. Through what? This Faith.
- 17Salvation plan as far as this dispensation is concerned, God devised a different way to save us, not the old way of the law. Since the coming of Christ, He devised grace and that was why He sent forth His servant to show us that different way. If we turn around and abuse it because He told us the truth, is that not foolishness on our side? Is the person conscious of what he is doing?
- Things work according to the way God wants. If God wants to save you, He will save you. If He does not want to save you, preach more than Him, act more than Him, defend the Faith more than Him, He will still throw you out.
- 18Can the grace of God stop the holy spirit move in the Church? Can it cause Christ in our midst not to be Almighty God again? Though He is a man saying, “I am hungry”, I am saying that playing with what should not be played with is dangerous. We are very foolish.
- Somebody is playing with something that is not supposed to be played with. A sensible man does not play with fire.
- Who can believe that the noise that is causing the waves in the whole world is emanating from this little Family? See the people that are causing the waves. “Out of the mouth of suckling, God has perfected His praise.”
- 19Do you know that because Meda Branham was angry at Branham, God instantly smote her with tumour? …
- Meda, that is the second wife of William Branham.
- …That thing happened in her heart. She did not utter it out. Because she was so angry with the servant of God, God smote her with tumour. She went to the hospital. Doctors tried their best, but they could not arrest the situation. And then they decided to operate on her.
- 20Then, the woman cried out, prayed to God and said, “Forgive me. I know I did wrong. I sinned against your servant.”
- 21Then, the LORD spoke to Branham, “Go to the hospital right now. She is lying on the bed for operation. I am delaying the operation. Go there before the operation takes place. Immediately you get there, speak to her and I will remove it.”
- 22William Branham rushed. The woman was already in the theartre, about to be operated on. Right there, he spoke the Word, “Now that you have repented, tumour depart!” Miraculously, the thing departed. Doctors marveled. …
- Is there not a cause? This testimony is enough to help somebody today. Faith cometh by hearing, hearing the Word of God.
- All of you who were not there in 1993, in 1998 and in 2015, you are there today. To those who have forgotten, remember what I said.
- “THIS IS THE MESSAGE THAT WILL RESURRECT THOSE THAT DIED SPIRITUALLY AND THOSE THAT ARE AT THE BRINK OF FALLING AWAY.this is the message of resurrection.”
- Miss it today, and miss it throughout eternity, ESPECIALLY NGWA, MBAISE, OPI IN Nsukka, aba, notably owerri. I hope you have heard Me. this is with obosima and umuokanne inclusive.
- enUgu, the centre of trying to please God through intellectual conception of the faith – centre of intelligence. this is the last revival. this is thE resurrection revival.
- it is going on because armageddon has set in. only the son of man will tell you where you are now. I am not only praying. I am monitoring. I am hovering around. i am overseeing things. we are on a time bomb that will explode anytime from now. it is inescapable.
- 23…William Branham said that the LORD removed it. Meda followed him. From that day, she never took it lightly to be angry at the man of God again.
- This is the second wife when he lost Sister Hope who was a blessing. He picked one who was a thorn in his flesh until he gave way, and who brought great blasphemy to the Faith of William Branham.
- How men ought to learn their lessons. Do you not know that it would have been better for him to remain a widower than to pick the one that spoilt his record?
- Anyway, she never promised marriage because she was all out to do it so that God’s will to stand. The LORD picked William Branham immediately so that the woman can stay here with her troublesome children and suffer. And that trouble enveloped her.
- All her children denied the Faith. The trouble became too much. She went to court against her children, for her children filed law suits against her. She had trouble with all her in-laws until they started looking for the son of man from then on.
- It is only that they have decided to calm down. Otherwise, by now, you would have heard that they have come to Nigeria.
- Remember there was one that came up to Lagos in search of this Faith. He came to Onitsha, stayed for days and then went back without seeing Me. Nowhere called GTC in Onitsha.
- Many have attempted it without seeing Me. Many! They went home and then wrote back to us, telling us the attempts they made coming down. How can you see Me?
- In the Message you heard today, did you not see that it has been My joy to be hiding? That is how God made Me. You do not pry into My secrets. I am not indebted to you. I am not a popular figure. I am only popular among the Elect of God. I hope you are hearing Me. I chose to be that way.
- 25When the Pastor was talking yesterday, I knew he was not the one talking. … That was Pastor Nnamdi Ogbogu. … I know the devil has made up his mind to destroy him except salvation comes because [1] he became blind when he was talking before me – a Bishop in the Church. [2] He became blind when he was speaking concerning the son of man.
- 27For I know that our Pastor in His right mind cannot speak that way. That was why Brother Mode marveled yesterday when he was hearing his Pastor saying, “If it is excommunication, let me go on excommunication. If you keep me outside, if I am an Elect, rapturecannot take place until you bring me back.”
- And now, he is dead and buried. We attended his own burial, and we are still here. May be on the resurrection morning, he will come out, and then, enter Paradise.
- Well, let Me reserve My comments, for I spoke concerning him. Nnamdi will not perish. Nnamdi will not perish. He will resurrect.
- Throughout the period he was just hovering about, he was meeting Me and others. He was never hostile to anybody. He remained friendly, only asking for forgiveness.
- But he made a mistake, marrying a second wife that destroyed him. If he had remained a widower after losing that Jezebel, Nnamdi would have remained alive.
- He went and married a thorn in his flesh who ridiculed him and cajoled him because Nnamdi had no job again. Nnamdi was eating from the woman. The woman was dictating.
- Nnamdi became a rover and could no longer cross the gutter. Nnamdi thinned down and became dark complexioned to the extent that Brethren at the Post Office helped him on several occasions to cross the gutter. He was being led by the hand.
- Can you imagine? A young man! Evil woman is more than cancer in the bone of a man. We have seen many. We have seen many. Not outside; Many that came to this Faith, but the strength of the Word of God could not give them resting place.
- What can you say about Mrs. Joshua Akpe and many others. Remember, all of them were working together. Am I making sense.
- I am not here to call names anymore. As long as you are no longer with us, God has raised many. I say, God has raised many. This is because when we put you out of our Fellowship, whatever that happens to you, we do not care. Anywhere you want to go, go! The same way, they do not care about us, but they are always enquiring about the Faith.
- I got a message yesterday – that was Saturday from the wife of Okey Ibeh from Nasarawa calling Me and saying, “Daddy, I just want to appreciate You and to tell You that Your Word has come to pass. You prophesied many years ago to me that I should not play with my children, that I should not remarry because when I wanted to remarry, and it was reported to You, You frowned at it and told our Bishop David that I should be told never to attempt it. And that I should fix myself training my children, that by and by, all of them must come back to me.
- Daddy, I want to tell you right now. My daughter is with me and has been with me for over four months. She is learning business with me here, and she is very happy. My son, Ogonna, visits me every now and then. I am still paying his school fees and attending to himat the Anambra State University, Uli. So I am providing for others. All of them have been coming and going. Now, my daughter is saying that when I complete my house, all of them will come down.”Did you get the Message?
- She said, “Daddy, even if it is this one alone, my first daughter rejoicing with me.”I asked to know whether the father knows and she said, “Yes now. You know, his problem is poverty. He is a proud man. He does not want people to know that I am the one feeding and nurturing him. That was his problem.”
- Brethren, is there truth in this? Do you not know who he is? Is the wife not the one that has been paying for everything. Up till now, he is carrying about water-proof [polythene material]. Up till now, he is claiming that he deals on water-proof [polythene material].
- He does not even have a shop. No window. He has no shop. What he does is to collect one dozen of the packs, he will carry one bottle.
- If he had a table where he displays this water-proof, people will be purchasing them and it will be more honourable. When he meets story tellers, he will engage them for two hours and continue his movement because there is one old woman that is nurturing him at Omagba. The first has run away, and the second has come. So he will continue until he will die.
- Brethren, abandon Christ and embrace the devil. I say, embrace! Hold him tight. As he is pulling you about so you are pulling him about too.
- I say, abandon truth and destroy your future. Abandon this way of life and destroy Your future. And then, bury yourself alive.
- How can a young girl or a young boy proSper in his or her ways, attain long life and become useful to God, to himself and to humanity? GoD said it is by taking heed to obey every Word that proceeds from the lips of Christ. Amen!
- You do not know what you are gaining when you are training your children in a godly way at this very age. When they grow up, nobody can take them away from the truth. Nobody!
- Look at those little girls there in Nasarawa. They are in the same Fellowship with their mother, with their grandparents all in one home. Each time they travel there on holidays, Ogonna will be a Minister.
- So, that time of blind followership is over. He has attained the level of education his father never attained courtesy his mother.
- This woman is still sending grains to Okey. She is still sending money to enable him eat and then take care of the rest. She has been doing it o. Am I making sense.
- This is just like the wife of Emma Agu was doing in those days, buying dresses and shoes for Emma Agu. She was buying food items and depositing them in the house for Emma Agu and continued her way.
- Emma Agu was living big then. Yet, the wife said, “For marriage, no way.” Of course, what is the need for marriage again when she is playing his role helping to train the children? Is it not the essence of marriage? But she made the greatest mistake.
- Emma too should have ushered her into the road to eternal life. The only role needful is Christ.
- Now, she has become good-for-nothing and old. Men do not price her again. Nobody prices her even a kobo.
- Now, she starts begging for one-room accommodation so that she will stay alone and then begin to take care of the two she delivered outside – from Imo State and Enugu State – one boy and one girl. Emma volunteered to take all.
- I love Bro Emma o. Bro Emma loves that lady. No matter how long she lived in the hotel, Emma went there and saw her. Emma did not hate her. She came out, and Emma impregnated her and she had a child. Did it not happen before your eyes? After that, She went back again. From there to Nkpor. From Nkpor to army barracks.
- Emma loves her. Emma is ordained that way. I say, Emma is ordained that way. That is why I do not impute sin on him. Rather, if I see a way of helping him, I will do it. Yes!
- There was no other person that was adequate to live in love till this day with a notorious prostitute if not Bro Emma.
- The fulcanizer, Emma’s friend who was in the same place with Emma– He is still there now. He will carry her to his own house before Bro Emma. In the morning, she will go. She will collect her money and continue her journey. The bride price Emma paid on her head is still on her head.
- Emma said, “For that reason, even if she delivers 100 children, he will be caring for all by himself and still love her. What type of love is that? That is godly love. Pure godly love? I appreciate it.
If He (Christ, the Apostle) never resurrected, our faith is useless. We are worshipping in vain. Remember He resurrected for our sanctification. My Christ is not in the grave. He really resurrected. He has presented Himself through the Son of Man. Hence, we call Him the Resurrected body.
THE SON OF MAN
I AM THE WORD EXPLAINED VOL 1; Preached on Sunday 27 April 2014 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 73 vs. 30

Let not unbelief be found among us
- THE PERONALITY WE ARE HAVING DEALINGS WITH preached on 1st November 1998 at the Household of God, Onitsha by Bishop Okey Paul. Page 94 from verse 28.
- 28… The devil knows that if he gets the shepherd guilty, of unbelief and doubt, he has already gotten the Church of God. He knows that very well. Completely! And that is why I keep on warning Ministers’ wives, “Be very careful!” 29Ministers’ wives! Your influence matters much in the Church. …
- Do you not know that it was her influence that was directing where Nnamdi would go as a Pastor? That was why, instead of Nnamdi to be excommunicated, the wife was put out of the Church by the same Bishop. Nnamdi carried his bag and said bye! Thank you! Bye!
- 29Ministers’ wives! Your influence matters much in the Church. If you are not careful, you hook up unbelief. That was why I warned the Pastor’s wife very well. …
- Go to THE GREAT SERMON – Stand Still and I will show you the Word of God by the son of man. You will see the havoc wives have caused the Ministers who do not have the revelation of the Faith where God made them overseers. Instead of serving God, they are serving the interest of their useless unbelieving wives.
- Reference: THE GREAT SERMON AND HOLYGHOST INSPIRED REVELATIONS AND EPISTLES, Revised Edition 2019 by THE SON OF MAN: Stand Still And I Will Show You The Word Of God, Chapter 2 (warning to all servants of God) Page 92 from verse 1 through 4.
- 1THE three major things that makes a man of God to fail in his commission are (1) Women, (2) Money, (3) Popularity. 2I am going to concern myself with women in this sermon because I have taught you on these dangers before.
- 3The most powerful instrument in the hand of Satan to extinguish the ministry of any Man of God, is an ungodly woman.
- 4An ungodly woman is one that has no fear of God and yet pretends to be highly religious. Such a woman has caused the downfall of a lot of men of God in all the ages.
- 29I went further to talk to her, “No matter what comes up in the Church, do not forget your office that you are the Pastor’s wife. And then, operate from your office, for your office is more important than your personality.”
- 31It is your office that gives you the personality you are. If you are not mindful of that office, you will be in trouble. For instance, William Branham said, “A Pastor is a go-between.” When there is trouble between Brother A and Brother B, the Pastor will be in such a position to reconcile the two into Fellowship. That is the role of the Pastor, and that is the role of the Pastor’s wife.
- She [Pastor Nnamdi’s wife] was accusing even both the Bishop and Apostle Kelechi of taking counsel together against her, for there was a big problem that time between her, former Sister Joshua Akpe, Endwell and Mrs. Ike. A big problem existed between them.
- We are not trying to rehearse the past, but there is something God is trying to teach us there. We have gone back to the original condition which God predicted that will be the end.
- The baton you are returning from now is already with you. Go and check whether you are holding the original or you are holding fake. Check whether you are holding knowledge without zeal. Check whether you are holding truth without Grace. Check to know whether you are not holding anything but a mere churchgoer.
- Then check whether you are doubting any aspect of the Faith – whether you are the accuser of the Brethren. Check what you have been manifesting whether they are according to the Faith or contrary to the Faith. Check whether they are deliberate or you are insincere. Check whether something is acting on you or somebody or condition. Go and check.
- But if it is not Christ influencing you, your influence is from the devil. If it is not Christ influencing your action, there is noway your action will be of the Faith of Christ, for Christ can never influence anybody outside His Faith.
- Can God influence you to do evil? No! No! I say, No! So, whatever you are manifesting that runs contrary to the teachings and doctrines of Christ, re-examine it.
- Something is acting on you. It is either you received an anointing that is preaching another message inside you or you are hearing something outside what is being spoken.
- 32The Pastor’s wife cannot hate anybody in the Church. The Pastor’s wife cannot even stop any Sister from coming to her home. Where will she go if she stops her? If they wrong you hundred times, you are the mother of the Church. …
- This thing started when she stopped the wife of Ignatius. She took Endwell, the Sister who was posted to Pastor’s house together with our former Sister, Kosi. That was where the problem erupted.
- 32… They have no other home but your home. There is none of them you can saddle something against, 33“She did me this wrong, and for that reason, she cannot come to my house. For that reason, she cannot live in my house.” No no! …..
- That was the reason why they were attracted to Nwufo. Can you not remember the name of that lady. She is a sister to Endwell who studied in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka together with the wife of Dr. Igwe.
- 37The Bishop should not do your visitation. The Apostle should not do your visitation. It is you because without you, there is no local Church. Everything in the Local Church centres around the Pastor and the Pastor’s family. What I am telling you is the mind of God. Sure!!!
- 46Let the Church be very careful. God has provided a different way of Salvation, which has come to us and if He removes this different way and gives us a contrary way, then we are perishing. It is this different way that God has provided that I want.
- 103 from verse 1. [18]If obeying those laws could save us, then it is obvious that this would be a different way of gaining God’s favour than Abraham’s way, for he simply accepted God’s promise.[19]Well then, why were the laws given? They were added after the promise was given, to show men how guilty they are of breaking God’s laws. But this system of law was to last only until the coming of Christ,… Alleluia!!!
- Has Christ come? Can you see that this world lieth in wickedness. Christ was here before AD 70. And up till this day we are in, these laws are still holding people captive. Nobody is ready to let it go because of wickedness. Even those who are upholding it do not obey it.
- See what is happening in the websites. Did I place any law there. I am here.
- …the Child to whom God’s promise was made. (And there is this further difference. God gave his laws to angels to give to Moses, who then gave them to the people; [20]but when God gave his promise to Abraham, he did it by himself alone, without angels or Moses as go-betweens.)
- Is that so? God gave the other one to angels and angels gave to Moses. But this one was Man-to-Man. Abraham and God.
- [21]Well then, are God’s laws and God’s promises against each other? Of course not! If we could be saved by his laws, then God would not have had to give us a different way to get out of the grip of sin—for the Scriptures insist we are all its prisoners. The only way out is through faith in Jesus Christ;… Through what? …through faith in Jesus Christ the way of escape is open to all who believe him. Alleluia!!!
- [23]Until Christ came we were guarded by the law, kept in protective custody, so to speak, until we could believe in the coming Saviour.
- Numbers 14:40-45, KJV.[40]And they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which the Lord hath promised: for we have sinned. [41]And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the Lord? but it shall not prosper.
- 42Go not up, for the Lord is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies. 43For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the Lord, therefore the Lord will not be with you.
- 44But they presumed to go up unto the hilltop:… They did what? They presumed.…nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and Moses, departed not out of the camp. 45Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah.
- This was because the Ark did not go with them. Moses did not go with them.
- 19… I could remember when Bro Chimee was preaching in my family altar, how he was trying to express the sweetness of this present stage of the Ministry. 18He said that this grace– whoever that will try to take him out of this grace, that the person does not want him to enjoy life. Let the person die.
- Some said that if we move further again that they will not move. Onyema Njom said, “We are not moving anywhere. We are here.”
- 19He was only trying to express how he actually valued the present stage of the Ministry. And you know that if there is anytime people will be dying, it is now… Sure!!! …because the moment God said we are going contrary, many will walk to their doom. ….
- 20The Book of Exodus 13:17-21.And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt:
- Pastor’s wife, listen. You will hear it. They have turned it, “Why were we led through this route, leaving the short way for the other route.” She decided to take another route. Listen!
- 25When the people of God walked contrary to God, God walked contrary to them. Also in this Book of Exodus where we read, this was a setup Church. Along the line in the Book of Numbers, the Bible said that a time came when the Pillar of fire and also the Pillar of Cloud led them back, heading towards Egypt.
- 26And God was doing it for a purpose. It was so that all those enemies of God will all die. He decided the journey. The Pillar of Cloud turned, heading towards Egypt, fooling the people.
- 27If they were the guide, why did they not turn round to say, “Moses, this is not the way. You are going back to Egypt. …”
- The Cloud turned. So that they will have a terrible encounter in the wilderness. They kept moving round and round.
- 28Foolishly, God was leading them, blinding them, guiding them round and round and round until He dropped as many as He wanted to drop. … Sure!!!
- 29The Church had no role to play than to plead for God’s mercy at all times. …
- He said, “Because you have done this, you will stay here longer than necessary, until all these Elders and all the make-believers and all the mixed multitude among you are completely tired of following Me.”
- Did you not hear it? Is that not what is fulfilling now? Now, you are in your homes. Do you know how many people you have? This is where the last one took place. Then I have filtered out the few I can manage with and add to My Family. And whatever we see on the other side, we will take it that way.
- Am I insisting on saving somebody when husband and wife are still arguing concerning the Faith up till now? When the man speaks, the wife will speak contrary canceling what the man had said. Is that what I have come to listen to?
- Now we have the situation where children are still demonstrating against their father, while the man is demonstrating against his wife’s noble idea. Is that what I am going to be listening to?
- Are we talking about those who wear trousers to Fellowship? She did not have her bath. She only applied powder on her face. Before you say, listen to the Message, she has carried her little child and entered the room.
- Is that what you are going to listen to? Are we talking about those who come out in their knickers at the backyard saying that the message can go on, for they are washing clothes.
- I am telling you what is happening now. Not every family is staying under this anointing where you are, guided by God Himself under the Canopy.
- Enugu is testifying about what is happening in Enugu. And they have been pleading that I should allow Wisdom to be visiting them once in a month, but I said, “No! No! You first rejected him and Lucky. So they cannot come to you again. Stay where you are. They are comfortable where they are.” And they cannot make a move without getting permission from Me.
- 29… It is not the issue you come here and say, “I know the grace of God. I know where I am holding God. He is a father.” Yes! He is a Father. Yet, He can kill us if we are not careful. He is a Father. He has the right to show us mercy. He can still say, “I will not show you mercy.”
- What? Did we hear it earlier today? Allah will pardon if He wants to. If He does not want, you can never charge Him to court. And He does not accept anything bribe. The only bribe you can give to Him is strict obedience to His word.
- 30Church of God, a word is enough for the wise. I am trying to admonish you. This is a warning. That is why I mentioned the name of the angel of or local Church to bring the message expressly to him for his attitude, if you place yourself, assuming the way you have reacted. And that is Pastor Nnamdi Ogbogu.
- 32Let us not come to a point that we can say, “God, what can you do?” If we come to that point, He will show us what He can do. [Sure!!!] After all, He reserves the power to save and He reserves the power to destroy.
- 33Let not unbelief be found among us. … 1998! By Bishop Okechukwu Nwamkpa or Paul. Whichever! He restored the whole certificates.
- 38If you are fed up with this Ministry, why not pack your bag and leave, than finding out another way of stumbling the Camp? Amen.
- That is the end. I do not have anything to add or to subtract. Is there not a cause? Is there not a cause? Then you can pray.
