MOSES MUST ACCUSE THIS GENERATION Preached ON Friday Night 28th & Saturday Morning 29th May 2021 AT The Bridal Lodge, Nsugbe Anambra State, Nigeria BY Apostle Peter Odoemena THE SON OF MAN THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH
6We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7No, we speak of God’s secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. 8None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9However, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him” — 10but God has revealed it to us by His Spirit.

Friday Night Session 28th May, 2021
12To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth: He enlarges and restricts. The Sustenance to whom He will: for He knows full well all things. 13The same religion has He established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah – that which We have sent by inspiration to thee – and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than Allah, hard is the (way) to which thou callest them. Allah chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him).

AFTER ME COMETH NO OTHER [1]
Now we turn over to the excerpts. Pay strict attention. I deliberately decided to do it so that you can corroborate whatever we have read from the Message I handled as THE SON OF MAN in 2003 [HEALTHY LIVING IN THE FAMILY OF GOD].
2. SECTION 2: Some excerpts from THE LEGENDS OF THE JEWS Volume 3. THE INSCRUTABLE WAYS OF THE LORD. The inscrutable ways of the Almighty God.

9. 1Moses still cherished three other wishes: [1] that the Shekinah might dwell with Israel; [2] that the Shekinah might not dwell with other nations; and lastly, [3] that he might learn to know the ways of the Lord whereby He ordained good and evil in the world, sometimes causing suffering to the just and letting the unjust enjoy happiness, whereas at other times both were happy, or both were destined to suffer.
10. 2Moses laid these wishes before God in the moment of His wrath, hence God bade Moses wait until His wrath should have blown over, AND THEN HE GRANTED HIM HIS FIRST TWO WISHES IN FULL, but his third in part only.
11. He granted Him His first two wishes in full. [1] That the Shekinah, the Presence of God will not be seen anywhere else, except in God’s own nation.
12. That is why, when the Shekinah Cloud appeared in our midst, the LORD spake expressly that if you go round the whole globe, till eternity, you will never see this Shekinah Cloud around any other person. This is the exclusive preserve of the Almighty God. That is His identity.
13. When you mention the Shekinah, you are talking about the presence of the Almighty God. And two cannot appear at the same time.
14. When the Shekinah Cloud left Moses, and that was when Moses’ Ministry was over, Moses was still alive. The Shekinah now rested on Joshua, the son of Nun. Moses diminished and fizzled out. Moses became servant to Joshua, who served Him.
15. The LORD told Moses clearly that there was no way He could allow two of them to be there again. Moses pleaded and pleaded that God should allow Him time, even to stay alive and become a servant.
16. God said, “No! The people of Israel having believed in you so much to be God even you yourself will find it difficult to obey Joshua while you are still alive. I am packing you home.” Moses was troubled more and more.
17. The Shekinah came, rested on the LORD Jesus Christ. [1] Remember the Shekinah was on John the Baptist. The Shekinah left John and John fizzled out. It rested on Jesus Christ, the Messiah of that day.
18. When the Shekinah left Him, the Shekinah rested on Peter for the Jews. A little while, the Shekinah abandoned the Jews for the clock of the Jews stopped. The LORD stopped the Jewish clock.
19. The Jews were cut off that the Gentiles might be grafted in. The Shekinah now moved over to Saint Paul who became the Minister and God Almighty to the Gentiles.
20. As we journeyed along, Apostasy came and reigned on the land. There was invasion of Jerusalem and everywhere. When apostasy reigned, the anti-Christ reared its head.
21. God, in this restoration time allowed the Shekinah to come back and rest on William Marrion Branham. While William Branham was there, he foretold of the coming Messiah, for he was the forerunner and the last forerunner to forerun the second advent of the Almighty God Himself in human form.
22. He had to give way. Immediately, he announced His birth. He announced His Parousia here; His presence in one of the jungles in Africa, where they never believed there could be a soul that could believe in God.
23. He [Branham] gave way. The Shekinah moved and now rested on Apostle Peter Odoemena [Peace be unto His Most Holy Name] to conclude the relay race. And He announced, “AFTER ME COMETH NO OTHER.”
24. Now, he has been on the scene. He told you why He is here; TO GATHER ALL THE LOOSE ENDS, starting from the Garden of Eden, and that is what we are witnessing today.
25. All he promised He will do, that He has done. He has recovered all those missing books in the Bible according to His Promise. He has tied the whole loose ends, and He has presented Christ.
26. Do not worry. Let us continue. Let us read the excerpts.
27. 2…and then He granted him his first two wishes in full, but his third in part only. 3God showed him the great treasure troves in which are stored up the various rewards for the pious and the just, explaining each separated one to him in detail: in this one were the rewards of those who give alms; in that one, of those who bring up orphans.
28. 4In this way He showed him the destination of each one of the treasures, until at length they came to ONE OF GIGANTIC SIZE. “For whom is this treasure?” asked Moses, and God answered:
29. 5“Out of the treasures that I have shown thee I give rewards to those who have deserved them by their deeds; BUT OUT OF THIS TREASURE DO I GIVE TO THOSE WHO ARE NOT DESERVING,…
30. Out of these treasures I reserved, I will give to those who do not deserve Me; who do not deserve life eternal.
31. …for I am gracious to those also who may lay no claim to My graciousness,…
32. People that may not lay any claim to God’s graciousness. They never worked with God for one day, but they have very good hearts. They never had that privilege. They never had that opportunity like you are having it here, seeing me live and hearing My Voice live.
33. So, when you say, “Grace, Grace, God’s Grace”, it is not for you. You are receiving the highest Grace. God appearing to you in human form, speaking to you mouth to mouth, eye to eye, ear to ear.
34. Is it like that with people out there in other countries? Blessed are those who do not see Me, and yet they believed. These are the people God made this great provision for;
35. And not you that are abusing grace, for whosoever that is hearing from THE SON OF MAN and he is disobeying Him, is he not abusing grace?
36. The person is abusing grace. So you cannot talk of grace being extended to you anymore, for this is the grace, God becoming a human being among you, leading you in the path you should go, and you say you are not going. He tells you what to do, and you say you will not obey. It is better you never came into contact with Him at all. It is better you knew nothing about Him.
37. 5…and I am bountiful to those who are not deserving of My bounty.” 6Moses now had to content himself with the certainty that the pious were sure of their deserts; without, however, learning from God, how it sometimes comes to pass that evil doers, too, are happy.
38. 7For God merely stated that He also shows Himself kind to those who do not deserve it, but without further assigning the why and the wherefore.
39. 8But the reward to the pious, too, was only in part revealed to him, for HE BEHELD THE JOYS OF PARADISE OF WHICH THEY WERE TO PARTAKE,…
40. I told you, the translation of the Saints will spring surprises. From the very beginning, I never for one day kept you in the dark. I made it clear to all and sundry that you will see faces you have never seen in your fellowship for one day.
41. You do not know where they are coming from, but I know all of them. Out there, there are still very good people, better placed than you who will hear from God and you will not tremble. The Lion will roar and you will never tremble.
42. Over-familiarity will not allow you to humble yourself at the feet of the Almighty. That is why He is bent on replacing many people.
43. At the end of the day, the same number He has vowed to save must be complete there. Anything can be scarce for God to reach out for. It is not a human being, for there are too many good people, men and women; young and old out there, but they do not have this opportunity.
44. You that have the opportunity and you abuse it, you will be the one to regret it at the end. That is why, MOSES MUST ACCUSE THIS GENERATION.
45. I SAY, MOSES MUST STAND UP IN JUDGMENT AGAINST THIS GENERATION. Take note of what I am saying. Not only Satan will testify against this generation. Even Prophet Moses will accuse this generation of unbelief. He will testify against this generation.
46. Even as I am unveiling all these things from the ancient manuscripts, men ought to learn from what happened to them. Men ought to learn from the examples of the Patriarchs, but some are laughing at it. Some will not learn their lessons.
47. God said it and He means it. It is not him that runneth nor him that willeth but God that showeth mercy. I will show mercy to anybody I want to show mercy. Anybody I want to destroy, I will destroy, saith the LORD God Almighty. Who will query Him for His actions?
48. The highest query He will entertain will be that of Moses and Prophet Ezra. Yet, at the end, they stood humiliated.
49. When you are asking questions before the LORD, you might be hoping to get answers that will favour you. At times, some feel they are winning their case with God. Wait until God will cross-examine you. God will play back your deeds.
50. That is why everybody is claiming to be righteous, but the righteous one, God is yet to see. I am right. I am right. I am good. Has God said so? Has he confirmed it?
51. Where do you stand and make your assertion? Continue to read that excerpt. I will visit it with time.
52. 8But the reward to the pious, too, was only in part revealed to him, for HE BEHELD THE JOYS OF PARADISE OF WHICH THEY WERE TO PARTAKE, but not the real reward that is to follow the feast in Paradise; for truly “eye hath not seen, beside the Lord, what He hath prepared for him that waiteth for Him.” Sure!!!
53. 9By means of the following incident God showed Moses how little man is able to fathom the inscrutable ways of the Lord.
54. How little man is able to fathom out the inscrutable ways of the Almighty God. The All-knower and the inexhaustible Fountain of Knowledge and wisdom.
55. Have I not been telling you that no human being can know everything about God? Who can say, “I know everything about THE SON OF MAN?” If you make that statement, you are a liar.
56. THE SON OF MAN has been saying it time without number to our hearing that you will only know Him to the extent He wants you to know Him, for there are too many things in Him, which He dares not allow human beings to know.
57. I AM A PARADOX – The more you look, the less you see. Nobody can know the Son of Man unless HE wants you to know HIM; And it will be to the extent I want. Believe it if you have the heart….[BE DILIGENT TO PROTECT YOUR MINDSET; preached on Sunday 15th and Sunday 22nd April, 2007 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 3]
58. Who can understand God? We are not called to understand God. We are called to believe Him. If you wait until you understand, you will not believe. Nobody is called to understand God. You are called to believe God. Even if you do not understand, HE said, “Believe anyhow.” Is it God you cannot comprehend that you want to understand? You will only know Me the extent I want you to know Me. The extent I permit you to know Me, that you will know. If I did not tell you that I AM HE, will you know? ….[BE CAREFUL ABOUT LAST MINUTE MANIFESTATION OF UNBELIEF (FOLLOW ME AS I FOLLOW HIM [THE CLOUD] REVIEWED); preached on Sunday 8th September, 2013 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 73 vs. 19 – 21]
59. And that is what makes Him the Almighty. If the Almighty reveals everything that makes Him the Almighty, everybody will be Almighty.
60. But the little He knows you will just accommodate; that will help you to come closer to Him; at least know Him as a Divine Personality, He will give it to you. Some of His attributes. Not all! Not all!
I am saying that for you to have been adopted into this great and wonderful Family, it is a wonderful privilege. Recognize the point of your adoption into this Family. In time past, you were enemies to this Faith, you were enemies to this Family, but today you are not only friends but members of this Household, and you now share in all inheritances in this Household, why? There is one that appeared in whom you have your way into this Family. If I did not come your way, you would have remained enemy till now. All that have not come my way by the preaching of this Gospel truth, have they found themselves into this Family? Now, have you recognized the point of your adoption into this Family?

AFTER ME COMETH NO OTHER [2]
SECTION 2: Some excerpts from THE LEGENDS OF THE JEWS Volume 3. THE INSCRUTABLE WAYS OF THE LORD: 9By means of the following incident God showed Moses how little man is able to fathom the inscrutable ways of the Lord.
2. Is it not Scriptural? The ways of God are too high, and they passeth all human understanding. His ways are not our ways. Neither our thoughts His own thoughts. Hence, no human being has ever been His counselor. Nobody!
3. 8For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. 9For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. [Isaiah 55:8 – 9 KJV]
4. 13Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord, or as His counselor has taught Him? 14With whom did He take counsel, that instruction might be given Him? Who taught Him the path of justice and taught Him knowledge and showed Him the way of understanding? [Isaiah 40:13 – 14 AMP]
5. He does everything after the counsel of His own will. And whatever he declares right is right in His own eyes. If He says it is wrong it is wrong in His own eyes.
6. AND WHOSOEVER THAT WANTS TO WIN THE APPROVAL OF GOD MUST SEE THINGS WITH THE EYES OF GOD. PERCEIVE THINGS WITH THE MIND OF GOD. TRUE OR FALSE?
7. IF YOU DO NOT SEE THINGS WITH GOD’S OWN EYES, YOU ARE PERISHING. YOU SPEAK WHERE HE SPEAKS. YOU KEEP QUIET WHERE HE KEEPS QUIET.SEE EVERYTHING THROUGH THE EYES OF THE LORD, NOT YOUR OWN EYES.
8. EVERY MAN IS GOOD IN HIS OWN EYES. BUT IN THE EYES OF GOD, CAN ANY MAN BE GOOD? IMPOSSIBLE!
9. 10When Moses was on Sinai, he saw from that station a man who betook himself to a river, stooped down to drink, lost his purse, and without noticing it went his way.
10. 11Shortly after, another man came, found the money, pocketed it, and took to his heels.
11. 12When the owner of the purse became aware of his loss, he returned to the river, where he did not find his
money, but saw a man, who came there by chance to fetch water.
12. 13To him he said: “Restore to me the money that a little while ago I left here, for none can have taken it if not thou.”
13. 14When the man declared that he had found none of the money nor seen any of it, the owner slew him.
14. The owner did what? Killed him immediately.
15. 15Looking with horror and amazement on this injustice on earth, Moses said to God: “I beseech Thee, show my Thy ways.
16. 16Why has this man, who was quite innocent, been slain, and why hath the true thief gone unpunished?” God replied: “The man who found the money and kept it merely recovered his own possession,…
17. The man Moses was referring to as a thief merely recovered his own stolen money.
18. …he who had lost the purse by the river, had formerly stolen it from him; but the one who seemed to be innocently slain is only making atonement for having at one time murdered the father of his slayer.”
19. Are you really understanding what we are reading? That the man who took the money and ran away, God referred to his action as restitution.
20. God said that the same man who lost that purse by the riverside had stolen from the man that picked that purse at one time in the past. When the owner of the purse lost his purse, the same person he stole from saw the purse and took it.
21. The person who was hacked to death with the accusation that he was the one that stole the purse and who was considered innocent of the accusation, but God said no, that he merely paid for the blood he spilt in time past, for he was indebted to be slain, for he was the one that killed the father of the man that killed him.
22. Are you understanding anything there? This is so that whatever you are doing in this life, wait for your own reward. It is coming back to you.
23. If you are doing evil, evil is coming to you. If you are doing good, your goodness is coming back to you. You cannot escape it. Is it not contained in our Message? RETRIBUTIVE JUSTICE.
24. SOW TO YOURSELVES IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, REAP IN MERCY; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you. [Hosea 10:12 KJV]
25. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: FOR WHATSOEVER A MAN SOWETH, THAT SHALL HE ALSO REAP. [Galatians 6:7 KJV]
26. And I have told you time without number. Owe no man nothing but love. If you dare spill blood, you are owing blood. And you MUST pay for it sometime, someday. This is so that you be careful the way you live your life.
27. When you are doing it and thinking you are doing it against another person, little will you realize that you are doing it to yourself.
28. God is the chiefest of all the planners and All-knowing. And pays every man back in his or her own coin. He is the God of Justice and Equity. Who can fault Him?
29. 17In this way, God granted the request of Moses, “to show him His ways,” in part only. Just a little! Did He let out everything to Moses? He showed Moses just a little of that which He is known for. Just a little!
30. 18He let him look into the future, and let him see every generation and it Sages…
31. He let Him see what? He let Him see into the future and every generation that will appear here and their various Sages. Moses saw this day. The LORD permitted Him to see it, for no Messenger ever walked with God so close except THE SON OF MAN, Who Himself is in our day, God. Nobody ever walked close to the Almighty. Not even one.
32. Moses had the privilege of entering God’s own home, covered by the Cloud, where He ate nothing and he drank nothing forty days and forty nights for the presence of the Almighty nourished Moses on the mountain top several times.
33. Remember we are handling the case of the Almighty Who has revealed Himself in these last days among us. And I remember in Amazu Oil, we were warned seriously to be very careful that what has come down is not a Messenger but God Himself.
34. He said, “I am afraid. You cannot worship this God. I am afraid. This God will slaughter all of you. He will exterminate all of you.” But along the way, Grace projected. He mellowed down his temper and became the Most Compassionate, the Most Tolerant, the Most Peaceful, Most Understanding, Most Patient, Most loving, Most Caring and Most Merciful, for He understands human weakness more than previous Messengers.
35. He places Himself in the shoes of every person before handling the person’s affairs. That is the One that says He will never get tired of anybody until He has tried His best. He does not believe that somebody can spoil himself and get away like that, until He has tried that person.
36. That is why, if you are practically and personally acquainted with Him, you are a privileged fellow because if you are wise and understanding, it gives you express ticket to paradise. But if you are foolish and unreasonable, you collect express ticket to hellfire.
37. I told everybody in the beginning, whether you are going to hell or heaven, you MUST see My face. Do not try to dodge Me here now. And I will never answer anybody back, for I know where I am waiting for all.
38. After all said and done, you will arrive at My own Stand. Whether you are going to heaven or hell, you are appearing there.
39. I just have to give God the glory. I was talking to Bro Ojiakor today and I said, “Of course, you have seen everything. You have known the Scriptures. You are an Apostle. You have written. You have been preaching. You have been teaching. I have never for one day evoked My powers on anybody. I have never for one day and will never evoke My destructive powers on anybody until I am satisfied that the person is already condemned for destruction.”
40. I have never for one day used My power on anybody. What is more? God will not allow Me to use it unjustly. Do you know that you do not have any other place to run to except Me? [A SPECIAL DAY: ANOTHER GREAT DAY; Preached on Sunday 19th August, 2012; Pg. 145 vs. 8]
41. And I have never for one day, abused the powers. How can I abuse something I have not even used? I am in your midst in My lowest ebb, identifying with all human weaknesses.
42. To the weak, I became weak. To the sick, I became sick. To the broken hearted, I became sorrowful. I have not seen any I can say is strong. Not even one. So, I cannot be strong. I have chosen the path of honour, which is the path of humility and path of service.
43. For your sake, I have never assumed royalty for one day. And that is why there is no being here that can stand up and say that He has worshipped Me or that he or she has worshipped God in THE SON OF MAN, if you know the meaning of worship.
44. We interact as equals and as mere humans. I have never for one day allowed that Authority to rear up, for I know that towards the end, everybody MUST know Me. All human flesh MUST know Who THE SON OF MAN is.
45. I told you, “I am a Man of unmistakable identity. I am a Divine Force.”
46. 17In this way, God granted the request of Moses, “to show him His ways,” in part only. 18He let him look into the future, and let him see every generation and its Sages, EVERY GENERATION AND ITS PROPHETS,… Note! Every generation and its Prophets. He saw all. He saw My day and wrote concerning Me. Hence, we are reading all these things. By the time I will pen the Scriptures, you will know that he saw My day and he wrote concerning THE SON OF MAN.
47. …every generation and its expounders of the Scriptures, every generation and its leaders, every generation and its pious men.
48. 19But when Moses said: “O Lord of the world! Let me see by what law Thou dost govern the world; for I see that many a just man is lucky, but many a one is not; many a wicked man is lucky, but many a one is not; many a rich man is happy, but many a one is not; many a poor man is happy, but many a one is not;” THEN GOD ANSWERED: “THOU CANST NOT GRASP ALL THE PRINCIPLES WHICH I APPLY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF THE WORLD, BUT SOME OF THEM SHALL I IMPART TO THEE.
49. But some of them, I shall make known to thee.
50. 20When I see human beings who have no claim to expectations from Me either for their own deeds or for those of their fathers, but who pray to Me and implore Me, then do I grant their prayers and give them what they require from subsistence.”
51. 21Although God had now granted all of his wishes, still Moses received the following answer to his prayer, “I beseech Thee, show me Thy glory”: “Thou mayest not behold My glory, or else thou wouldst perish, but in consideration of My vow to grant thee all thy wishes, and in view of the fact that thou are in possession of the secret of My name, I will meet thee so far as to satisfy thy desire in part.
52. 22Lift the opening of the cave, and I will bid all the angels that serve Me pass in review before thee; but as soon as thou hearest the Name, which I have revealed to thee, know then that I am there, and bear thyself bravely and without fear.’
53. The LORD willing, tomorrow is Saturday and sanitation. And being Saturday, nobody leaves here early hours of the morning.
54. If we stay alive till tomorrow morning, which I believe we shall all stay alive, we will continue from where we stopped. We will go back to the inscrutable ways of the LORD God Almighty to enable Me show you Scriptures; and then, engrave it in such a manner that My children in extant lands will know that of a certainty, from the very beginning till this day, that THE SON OF MAN never deceived the ears and hearts of all that came into contact with Him, for I am here for full and complete salvation; and for the destruction of the disobedient ones, not only in our midst, but out there.
55. Even those who disobeyed from the days of Adam and Eve till this very day, all of them are accountable to Me, for Authority has been conferred on Me as THE SON OF MAN to execute righteous judgment to both the living and the dead. Thereunto, I am called, ordained and sent.
56. Shall we bow down our heads as we pray.
CONCLUSION
PRAYER
Our Heavenly Father, we give You the praise. We give You the honour. We give You, O God the whole reverence and adoration as we worship at Thy feet.
2. We are a privileged people indeed to have You in Person for our Teacher and Instructor; our Guide and Protector, Our Provider and our Saviour.
3. Thank You immensely, for when the world was without form. Before the world ever began, You knew us. You had already predestinated us, Father to be among those that will appear in this last generation to be Your manifested sons and daughters. You included us in that number.
4. What a wonderful loving Father You are. Help us never to pay You back with evil. Help us O God, that the knowledge of Who You are, which we are gaining more and more everyday, will make us to be much more humble than ever. You made us to respect You, worship You, honour You and adore You, more than we have done in the Past.
5. Where we erred in time past, LORD we pray You forgive us, especially the sin of ignorance. Now, we cannot say that we have not been taught or that we do not know.
6. We pray that you uphold us on this our sanctified estates until that glorious day with preaching and with encouraging words for salvation. And that is when we must have been clothed with our immortal bodies.
7. Until then, help us to remain sober and quiet as we meditate on the ways You have been dealing with us all these years.
8. While we go to our beds tonight, Father visit us once again. Drum it into our ears and into our hearts. Make it, O God so much clearer than ever, concerning the hour we are in and what we should expect next.
9. I make this solemn request on our behalf here and on the behalf of our children in distant lands, and on the behalf of every Elect of God scattered all over the world. May it be well with all of them.
10. If You are wrapping it up tonight, Father My prayer is that all of them will troop into Paradise. Let there be not even one that will be left behind.
11. LORD, we say THANK YOU once again, for hearing our prayers. For Your Name’s sake, we pray.
12. I WILL REVEAL TO YOU WITH TIME, ONE SINGLE NAME NO ANGEL EVER KNOWS.
PART 2
SATURDAY MORNING SESSION 29TH MAY, 2021
13I saw in the night visions, and behold, on the clouds of the heavens came One like A SON OF MAN, and He came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him. 14And there was given Him [the Messiah] dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away, and His kingdom is one which shall not be destroyed.

THERE MUST BE A TOKEN
Some excerpts from THE LEGENDS OF THE JEWS Volume 3: THE INSCRUTABLE WAYS OF THE LORD.
2. 21Although God had now granted all of his wishes, still Moses received the following answer to his prayer, “I beseech Thee, show me Thy glory”: “Thou mayest not behold My glory, or else thou wouldst perish, but in consideration of My vow to grant thee all thy wishes, and in view of the fact that thou are in possession of the secret of My name, I will meet thee so far as to satisfy thy desire in part.
3. 22Lift the opening of the cave, and I will bid all the angels that serve Me pass in review before thee; but as soon as thou hearest the Name, which I have revealed to thee, know then that I am there, and bear thyself bravely and without fear.’
4. God has a reason for not showing His glory to Moses. He said to him: “When I revealed Myself to thee in the burning bush, thou didst not want to look upon Me; now thou are willing, but I am not.”
5. Amen. You see, a time came when Moses thought it was a very light thing to disobey God’s instruction. Because God was talking to him as a friend, He regarded God’s statements as mere casual statements. He never knew that God meant all He said.
6. GOD IS EVER MINDFUL OF HIS WORD. HE MEANS WHAT HE SAYS. AND HE SAYS WHAT HE MEANS.
7. Now, Moses is the one looking for God and God is no longer to be found. You see why the LORD God Almighty is encouraging us to seek Him while He could be found. To call upon Him while He is still near.
8. Let the wicked forsake his wicked ways, and the unrighteous his unrighteous thoughts. Let him turn to the LORD, for He will abundantly pardon and welcome him again.
9. There is a time you will look for God and you will not see Him again. He may be around, but you will not see His face. Neither will you hear His Voice.
10. So, do not be numbered among those God will one day rise up and say, “I tell you of a certainty, while God liveth and I live, you will search for Me with lantern and you will not see Me.”
11. Do not provoke God to that extent. When you have God around you and your relationship is right with God, cement it. Cement that relationship. Do not ever strain it. For the moment you strain it, whatever might be your past record will be completely erased.
12. Who can believe that Moses of all Moses could be ignored to this extent by God in spite of all his labour from Egypt? God vowed that He must grant all his requests, but He said no to this.
13. All the people of Israel were just calling Him Jehovah, but He had a Name which nobody knew, but Moses. And that Name had remained a secret.
14. He gave Moses that secret Name so that whenever He mentions that secret name, Moses will know that the LORD was the One standing there.
15. It is just like when I give you a token and I say, “This is what you will mention. When you mention this, wherever I am, I must turn towards you.”
16. If I give it to you as a token; as a secret, you keep it to yourself. It becomes a sign of the Covenant between you and I. Any day you abuse it, I will withdraw it straight away so that it will be ineffective in your hands, because I am the LORD God Almighty.
17. If I want to give you My staff, I will give you. If I want to give you My rod I will give you. If I want to give you My flower, I will give you.
18. THERE MUST BE A TOKEN. THERE MUST BE A SIGN OF COVENANT BINDING YOU AND I, WHICH ONLY YOU KNOW. ANY DAY YOU DIVULGE THE INFORMATION, THAT IS THE END OF THE COVENANT.
19. That was what happened in Jericho, between Caleb and Joshua; and the prostitute, Rahab. They told her clearly. This is a sign of covenant between you and us. People might laugh at you when you place the red scarlet clothe there, but we understand the reason for it.
20. It is a sign which we will see and then destruction will never come near your house. All that will be privileged to take refuge in your house will be saved.
21. We swear an oath binding us that we will keep to our promise only on one condition; that you do not allow any other person to know this secret.
22. God keepeth secrets. And the Name of God had always been a secret. Let us see what He told Moses here in the same LEGENG OF THE JEWS [Volume 3].
23. They would certainly not have escaped from the hands of the giants, had not Moses given them two weapons against them, his staff and the secret of the Divine Name.
24. He was referring to the spies that went to Palestine, that is the land of Canaan, to spy the land. When they got there, they saw the Anaks. Giants were there. They were afraid. Their lives were in danger.
25. They could not have escaped the wrath of the giants in Canaan, the Anaks, if not for the secret Name the LORD gave them, and instructed them that when they get there and run into trouble with the Anaks, they should apply that secret Name immediately.
26. They would certainly not have escaped from the hands of the giants, had not Moses given them two weapons against them,… Note the two weapons the LORD gave the spies. …HIS STAFF AND THE SECRET OF THE DIVINE NAME.
27. [1] HIS STAFF; THE LORD’S STAFF. [2] THE SECRET OF HIS DIVINE NAME.
28. These two brought them salvation whenever they felt they were in danger from the giants.
29. What gave them salvation? The Staff and the secret of the Divine Name, which they kept. So, you have to be very very careful in your own day. God is identified by His characteristics.
30. In our own dispensation, we can testify that we have a secret Name. And because the secret name has been abused by many, for too many hypocrites among us; mixed multitudes among us messed up that Name.
31. They defiled My Name which I just gave them as a test. How do you think I will take Apostle Peter Odoemena [pbuh] as the secret Name? The Name that was made public, even in the Fellowship.
32. This is a Fellowship Name. I have My Name hidden in THE SON OF MAN, which is not made public. This Name is given to anybody I want to give it.
33. You can call Me Apostle Peter Odoemena [pbuh] because I am a Nigerian. There is no Odoemena there. There is no Peter there.
34. I have a Name. And My Name, no human being has ever spelt it rightly, talk less of mentioning it. I give it as a token to whosoever I want to give it. And I know, for now, nobody holds it. Not even My wife holds My secret Name.
35. But I gave you My Fellowship Name to enable us have sweet and wonderful Fellowship. So, let nobody ever go about bragging, “At last, the Name of THE SON OF MAN has been revealed.”
36. No! What was revealed is His Fellowship Name, that you may have Fellowship with Him as our Brother, drawn from our own Igbo extraction. No more. No less.
37. I know why I allowed that. In short, I injected a little power into that Name so that you can use it generally if you wish. But the warning I gave concerning it has been abused long long time ago by many individuals and families.
38. For that reason, My Name remaineth with Me. My own Name where My power and My Authority lies, I have it within Me. And I will release it. And in that name is the translation of the Saints. I say, in that Name is the translation of the Saints.
39. If I do not tell you this, know that I hate you. Any day I reveal that Name, it is all over, for that is where all you need is hidden. And it is not given to people anyhow.
40. God knew that after revealing it to Moses, that he will parcel Moses home, lest Moses will reveal it. He parceled Moses home.
41. Apart from Enoch and the holy Angels, the only other human being that was privileged to have that Name was Moses.
42. Caleb was not given the Name until he was sent to the Anaks together with Joshua. And with that Name, they prevailed.
43. IN THAT NAME, YOU WILL ALSO PREVAIL. THAT IS WHERE YOUR TOTAL VICTORY LIES.
44. People call me the Word of God. The Word of God is not a Name.
45. Page 105 Nugget: THE WHOLE SUPERNATURAL SIGNS HAVE BEEN DISPLAYED; THE WHOLE PROPHETIC WORDS HAVE COME TO PASS. WE ARE NOT MAKING ANY MISTAKE PROCLAIMING THE PERSONALITY, THE REVEALED CHRIST. WE ARE SURE AND CERTAIN.

THE THIRTEEN ATTRIBUTES OF GOD
49. Pay strict attention here, for the Almighty God does not change. And will never change. Till eternity, He remaineth the same Almighty God, holding His characteristics. THIRTEEN ATTRIBUTES OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD.
50. 1The cave in which Moses concealed himself while God passed in review before him with His celestial retinue, was the same in which Elijah lodged when God revealed Himself to him on Horeb.
51. Take note of it. I have been telling you from time to time that the same mountain in that day has been renamed. The cave may be renamed. Yet, it remains the same cave. Where Moses hid Himself and saw God, that was where Elijah lodged. Elijah came thousands of years after Moses; And that was the same cave. No mistakes about it.
52. 2If there had been in it an opening even as tiny as a needle’s point, both Moses and Elijah would have been consumed by the passing Divine light, which was of an intensity so great that Moses, although quite shut off in the cave, nevertheless caught the reflection of it, so that from its radiance his face began to shine.
53. 3Not without great danger, however, did Moses earn this distinction; for as soon as the angels heard Moses request God to show him His glory, they were greatly incensed against him, and said to God:
54. 4“We, who serve Thee night and day, may not see Thy glory, and he, who is born of woman, asks to see it!” In their anger they made ready to kill Moses, who would certainly have perished, had not God’s hand protected him from the angels. Then God appeared in the cloud. God appeared where? …IN THE CLOUD.
55. 5It was the seventh time that He appeared on earth,… It was what? …THE SEVENTH TIME HE APPEARED ON THE EARTH and taking the guise of a precentor of a congregation, He said to Moses:… Taking the guise of a human being, He joined in the Congregation, and now said to Moses;
56. 6“Whenever Israel hath sinned, and calleth Me by the following thirteen attributes, I will forgive them their sins.
57. I am the Almighty God who provides for all creatures. I am the Merciful One who restrains evil from human kind. 7I am the Gracious One who helps in time of need.
58. I am the Long-Suffering to the upright as well as to the wicked. 8I am Bountiful to those whose own deed do not entitle them to lay claim to rewards.
59. 9I am Faithful to those who have a right to expect good from Me; AND PRESERVE GRACIOUSNESS UNTO THE TWO-THOUSANDTH GENERATION.
60. Unto the what? …unto the two-thousandth generation. I do what? I preserve what? …GRACIOUSNESS…. I preserve what? …GRACIOUSNESS… Unto what? …unto the two-thousandth generation. Amen!
61. What generation are we? Are we not in the two thousandth generation? The generation THE SON OF MAN appeared.
62. I forgive misdeeds and even atrocious actions, in forgiving those who repent.”
63. When Moses heard this, and particularly that God is long-suffering with sinners, he prayed: “O forgive, then, Israel’s sin which they committed in worshipping the Golden Calf.”
64. Had Moses now prayed, “Forgive the sins of Israel unto the end of all time,” God would have granted that too, as it was a time of mercy; but as Moses asked forgiveness for this one sin only, this one only was pardoned, and God said: “I have pardoned according to thy word.”
65. The day on which God showed Himself merciful to Moses and to His people, was the tenth day of Tishri, the day on which Moses was to receive the tables of the law from God for the second time, and all Israel spent it amid prayer and fasting, that the evil spirit might not again lead them astray.
66. Their ardent tears and exhortations, joined with those of Moses, reached heaven, so that God took pity upon them and said to them: “My children, I swear by My lofty Name that these your tears shall be tears of rejoicing for you; that this day shall be a day of pardon, of forgiveness, and of the canceling of sins for you, for your children, and your children’s children to the end of all generations.”
67. This day was not set for the annual Day of Atonement, without which the world could not exist, and which will continue even in the future world when all other holy days will cease to be.
68. The Day of Atonement, however, is not only a reminiscence of the day on which God was reconciled to Israel… Amen!
69. As many as were with Me right from Amazu Oil, who are still alive spiritually and physically today, will testify to the glory of God that THE SON OF MAN woke up one day and proclaimed a particular day as a day of atonement, before the communion was given.
70. And we all came, and got reconciled with God after making our confessions made known to Him. And God said it was a day of atonement. And it was observed with fasting and prayers.
71. It was at the end of the fasting that the dry tap supplied us water. A memorable day in the history of the Bridal movement. Check our journey. Check our journey. Check the journey of the people that took off from Egypt.
72. Relate our experiences right from Ugwumba Street, to Amazu and to all the places where we went, until we arrived where we are now.
73. It takes somebody who followed us strictly and spiritually to sit down and then have a rethink about this Faith, which God said is not a church, but is a Movement; how we have been moving, until we arrived where we are now.
74. The Day of Atonement, however, is not only a reminiscence of the day on which God was reconciled to Israel and forgave them their sins, but it is also the day on which Israel finally received the Torah.
75. For after Moses has spent forty days in prayer, until God finally forgave Israel their sins, he began to reproach himself for having broken the tables of the law, saying” “Israel asked me to intercede for them before God, but who will, on account of my sin, intercede before God for my sake?”
76. Then God said to him: “Grieve not for the loss of the first two tables, which contained only the Ten Commandments. The second tables that I am now ready to give thee, shall contain Halakot, Midrash, and Haggadot.”
77. At the new moon of the month Elul, Moses had the trumpet sounded throughout the camp, announcing to the people that he would once more betake himself to God for forty days to receive the second tables from Him, so that they might be alarmed by his absence; and he stayed in heaven…
78. He stayed where? …in Heaven… Where was that Heaven? Where God was dwelling. Where God invited him to come. The people saw him as he went to the mountain to meet with the LORD. WHEREVER GOD STATIONS IS REGARDED AS HEAVEN.
79. …and he stayed in heaven until the tenth day of Tishri, on which day he returned with the Torah and delivered it to Israel. Amen!
19We know [positively] that we are of God, and the whole world [around us] is under the power of the evil one. 20And we [have seen and] know [positively] that the Son of God has [actually] come to this world and has given us understanding and insight [progressively] to perceive (recognize) and come to know better and more clearly Him Who is true; and we are in Him Who is true–in His Son Jesus Christ (the Messiah). This [Man] is the true God and Life eternal. 21Little children, keep yourselves from idols (false gods)–[from anything and everything that would occupy the place in your heart due to God, from any sort of substitute for Him that would take first place in your life]. Amen (so let it be).
1 JOHN 5:19 – 21 AMP

MOSES MUST ACCUSE THIS GENERATION [1]
Pay attention! We quoted it there that THE SON OF MAN existed. He came according to time. Get your Bibles out. I want to have Amplified, Living Bible and Good News translations. Be very fast.
2. We have been hearing it. He came according to time. He came according to prophecy. He came according to all that was written concerning Him.
3. 7Then said I, Behold, I come; in the volume of the book it is written of me; {Psalms 40:7 AMP]
4. 7Then I said, Behold, here I am, coming to do Your will, O God–[to fulfill] what is written of Me in the volume of the Book. [Hebrews 10:7 AMP]
5. I want Chiemelie to go to the pulpit with the Amplified and the Living Bible versions; even the Good News Bible. Chika, your duty will be to search and give him the portion as I will quote, while he will do the reading. Where you cannot search, you come down from there and allow Me to do the search; or you allow Chiemelie to do the searching. Anybody who is lazy in turning the scriptures cannot fulfill anything meaningful in this Faith.
6. Pay attention! I am about to tie everything to the Scriptures. We have read the parchments. We have read THE ARCHEOLOGICAL PARCHMENTS AND THALMUDS OF THE SANHEDRINS. We have read everything readable.
7. We read THE FIRST AND SECOND BOOKS OF PROPHET EZRA. We read, not only that one, we read everything. THE ETHIOPIC BOOKS OF ENOCH. THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS. We have read from the GRAIL MESSAGE.
8. We have read from everything and everything, until we came to where we are now. We have read even THE TESTAMENTS OF THE PATRIARCHS. The testimonies of the Patriarchs. And now, THE LEGENDS OF THE JEWS.
9. I am tying everything to the Scriptures. Follow Me strictly. You can put it down in your jotter as I read.
10. Since the journey took off from Egypt, Moses, being a man who was on the scene, and whose history we are following strictly, I want to leave something there.
11. DO NOT ALLOW MOSES TO ACCUSE YOU IN YOUR OWN DAY. DO NOT ALLOW MOSES TO TESTIFY AGAINST YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR UNBELIEF. LEARN FROM MOSES.
12. LEARN FROM ABRAHAM, ISHMAEL, ISAAC, JACOB AND THEIR DESCENDANTS, FOR I AM SURE AND CERTAIN THAT MOSES WILL RISE IN JUDGMENT TO TESTIFY AGAINST THIS GENERATION.
13. THIS IS BECAUSE MOSES SAW MY DAY. HE SAW THE DAYS OF THE SON OF MAN HERE, WHEN THE ELOHIM WILL BE HERE ON EARTH AS A HUMAN BEING.
14. [25]“But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and that he will stand upon the earth at last. [Job 19:25 LB]
15. The oldest Book in the Bible happens to be the Book of Job. Job saw God standing upon the earth in the last day as a human being, judging the whole world.
16. All we have been reading all this while, I want to summarize with few Scriptures. Follow Me now, strictly as we read.
17. Saint John’s Gospel chapter one verses forty-three through fifty-one. Give Me Amplified version of the Bible. John 1:43 – 51.
18. 43The next day Jesus desired and decided to go into Galilee; and He found Philip and said to him, Join Me as My attendant and follow Me.
19. 44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the same city as Andrew and Peter.
20. 45Philip sought and found Nathanael and told him, We have found (discovered) the One Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote about–Jesus from Nazareth, THE [LEGAL] SON OF JOSEPH!
21. 46Nathanael answered him, [Nazareth!] Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip replied, Come and see!
22. 47Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him and said concerning him, See! Here is an Israelite indeed [a true descendant of Jacob], in whom there is no guile nor deceit nor falsehood nor duplicity!
23. 48Nathanael said to Jesus, How do You know me? [How is it that You know these things about me?] Jesus answered him, Before [ever] Philip called you, when you were still under the fig tree, I saw you.
24. 49Nathanael answered, Teacher, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!
25. 50Jesus replied, Because I said to you, I saw you beneath the fig tree, do you believe in and rely on and trust in Me? You shall see greater things than this!
26. 51Then He said to him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you all, you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man! Amen!
27. John 1:43 – 51. Living Bible. [43]The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and told him, “Come with me.” [44](Philip was from Bethsaida, Andrew and Peter’s hometown.)
28. [45]Philip now went off to look for Nathanael and told him, “We have found the Messiah!—THE VERY PERSON MOSES AND THE PROPHETS TOLD ABOUT!… What? …His name is Jesus, the son of Joseph from Nazareth!”
29. [46]“Nazareth!” exclaimed Nathanael. “Can anything good come from there?” “Just come and see for yourself,” Philip declared. [47]As they approached, Jesus said, “Here comes an honest man—a true son of Israel.”
30. [48]“How do you know what I am like?” Nathanael demanded.
And Jesus replied, “I could see you under the fig tree before Philip found you.” [49]Nathanael replied, “Sir, you are the Son of God—the King of Israel!”
31. [50]Jesus asked him, “Do you believe all this just because I told you I had seen you under the fig tree? You will see greater proofs than this. You will see what? …greater proofs than this. [51]You will even see heaven open and the angels of God coming back and forth to me, the Messiah.” Amen!
32. Saint John’s Gospel chapter five verse thirty-three through forty-seven. Starting with the Amplified version.
33. John 5:33 – 47. 33You yourselves have sent [an inquiry] to John and he has been a witness to the truth.
34. 34But I do not receive [a mere] human witness [the evidence which I accept on My behalf is not from man]; but I simply mention all these things in order that you may be saved (made and kept safe and sound).
35. 35John was the lamp that kept on burning and shining [to show you the way], and you were willing for a while to delight (sun) yourselves in his light.
36. 36But I have as My witness something greater (weightier, higher, better) than that of John; for the works that the Father has appointed Me to accomplish and finish, the very same works that I am now doing, are a witness and proof that the Father has sent Me.
37. 37And the Father Who sent Me has Himself testified concerning Me. Not one of you has ever given ear to His voice or seen His form (His face–what He is like). [You have always been deaf to His voice and blind to the vision of Him.]
38. 38And you have not His word (His thought) living in your hearts, because you do not believe and adhere to and trust in and rely on Him Whom He has sent. [That is why you do not keep His message living in you, because you do not believe in the Messenger Whom He has sent.]
39. 39You search and investigate and pore over the Scriptures diligently, because you suppose and trust that you have eternal life through them. And these [very Scriptures] testify about Me!
40. 40And still you are not willing [but refuse] to come to Me, so that you might have life.
41. 41I receive not glory from men [I crave no human honor, I look for no mortal fame], 42But I know you and recognize and understand that you have not the love of God in you.
42. 43I have come in My Father’s name and with His power, and you do not receive Me [your hearts are not open to Me, you give Me no welcome]; but if another comes in his own name and his own power and with no other authority but himself, you will receive him and give him your approval.
43. 44How is it possible for you to believe [how can you learn to believe], you who [are content to seek and] receive praise and honor and glory from one another, and yet do not seek the praise and honor and glory which come from Him Who alone is God?
44. 45Put out of your minds the thought and do not suppose [as some of you are supposing] that I will accuse you before the Father.
45. THERE IS ONE WHO ACCUSES YOU… There is one who accuses you before the Father. …–IT IS MOSES,… Who? …–IT IS MOSES,… Who? …–IT IS MOSES, the very one on whom you have built your hopes [in whom you trust].
46. 46For if you believed and relied on Moses, you would believe and rely on Me, FOR HE WROTE ABOUT ME [PERSONALLY].
47. 47But if you do not believe and trust his writings, how then will you believe and trust My teachings? [How shall you cleave to and rely on My words?]
48. John 5:32 – 47, Living Bible. [32-33]but someone else, yes, John the Baptist, is making these claims for me too. You have gone out to listen to his preaching, and I can assure you that all he says about me is true!
49. [34]But the truest witness I have is not from a man, though I have reminded you about John’s witness so that you will believe in me and be saved.
50. Remember, John the Baptist was Elijah, who foreran the first coming.
51. 14and if you are willing to believe their Message, John is Elijah, whose coming was predicted. [Matthew 11:14 GNB]
52. 5But before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes, I will send you the Prophet Elijah. [Malachi 4:5 GNB]
53. And then, William Branham became the last Elijah that foreran the second coming, whose testimony concerning THE SON OF MAN, a good number of those who claim they are following THE SON OF MAN do not believe, for if they had believed in the Prophets, they would have believed in William Branham, thereby making their belief in THE SON OF MAN very easy.
54. But seeing that they have been disobedient to God’s Prophets [God’s Messengers], they developed a regrettable habit; a regrettable habit of unbelief towards God’s Messengers.
55. Even after enquiring and verifying about their descent, and they are satisfied that they [Messengers] proceeded from the Almighty God with infallible proofs as evidences;
56. Yet, unbelief reigns supreme in their lives, for which cause many are bound to regret their acquaintance with SON OF MAN, personally and practically for not treating Him as God. You may be personally and practically acquainted with God, not as God, but as a mere man.
57. [35]John shone brightly for a while, and you benefited and rejoiced, [36]but I have a greater witness than John. I refer to the miracles I do; these have been assigned me by the Father, and they prove that the Father has sent me.
58. [37]And the Father himself has also testified about me, though not appearing to you personally, or speaking to you directly.
59. [38]But you are not listening to him, for you refuse to believe me—the one sent to you with God’s message. [39]“You search the Scriptures, for you believe they give you eternal life. And the Scriptures point to me!
60. [40]Yet you won’t come to me so that I can give you this life eternal!
61. [41-42]“YOUR APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL MEANS NOTHING TO ME,…
62. Your approval or disapproval means nothing. Whether you approve of THE SON OF MAN to be the Messiah of this age or disapprove of Him, they are but one to Me. they mean nothing. They do not add nor subtract from what I am or what my mission is all about.
63. [41-42]“YOUR APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL MEANS NOTHING TO ME, for as I know so well, you don’t have God’s love within you. [43]I know, because I have come to you representing my Father and you refuse to welcome me, though you readily enough receive those who aren’t sent from him, but represent only themselves!
64. [44]No wonder you can’t believe! For you gladly honour each other, but you don’t care about the honour that comes from the only God!
65. [45]“YET IT IS NOT I WHO WILL ACCUSE YOU OF THIS TO THE FATHER Sure!! —MOSES WILL! Moses will surely accuse you before the Father; the Almighty God. …Moses, on whose laws you set your hopes of heaven.
66. [46]For you have refused to believe Moses. He wrote about me, but you refuse to believe him, so you refuse to believe in me. [47]And since you don’t believe what he wrote, no wonder you don’t believe me either.” Sure!!!
67. If they had believed what Moses documented concerning these last days we are in and concerning the revelation of the Messiah in these days of THE SON OF MAN, believing Him would have been easy.
68. 14Then Moses said, “In the land you are about to occupy, people follow the advice of those who practice divination and look for omens, but the Lord your God does not allow you to do this. 15INSTEAD, HE WILL SEND YOU A PROPHET LIKE ME FROM AMONG YOUR OWN PEOPLE, and you are to obey him. ……. 18I will send them a prophet like you from among their own people; I will tell him what to say, and he will tell the people everything I command. 19HE WILL SPEAK IN MY NAME, AND I WILL PUNISH ANYONE WHO REFUSES TO OBEY HIM. [Deuteronomy 18:14 – 15 & 18 – 19 GNB]
69. Do not say, “If I were there, I would have believed Moses.” This is your own day. To what extent have you believed the writings of Moses, even in your own day?
70. I decided personally to bring back to you, in this dying age, and at these closing hours of the Ministry of THE SON OF MAN here on earth, all that Moses documented concerning the Elohim, Who will be a human being on earth in the last days.
71. This is the major reason why I have decided to scoop all out, wherever they were hidden, from all museums; All Archeological Parchments and Talmuds of the Sanhedrins, even the Holy Qur’an and other Ancient manuscripts, for you to see that HE that has been having dealings with you all these years is no other personality but the Almighty God Himself, hiding Himself in simplicity in the guise of a Human Being so as to save you, for there is no other way you can be saved if God does not become a human being like one of us.
72. [14]Since we, God’s children, are human beings—made of flesh and blood—he became flesh and blood too by being born in human form; for only as a human being could he die and in dying break the power of the devil who had the power of death.
[15]Only in that way could he deliver those who through fear of death have been living all their lives as slaves to constant dread.
[16]We all know he did not come as an angel but as a human being—yes, a Jew. [Hebrews 2:14-16]
73. But it has been grossly abused by all his enemies, who have found their ways into our midst.
74. I told you that in My attempt to do a good fishing, I have fished out too many things from the waters that are not fishes.
75. Every fisherman that lowers his net inside a river and pulls it out must pull out too many creatures that are not fishes.
76. Some of them might be very fearful and horrifying. They are animals living inside the water, but they are not fishes. Although fishes are found living in water, there are so many other marine creatures that are there.
77. That is why whenever a fisherman pulls out his net, he settles down to do a separation. He is only interested in the fishes. No matter how small that fish might be, he is interested in it. It is part of the catch. He catches both small and big fishes. True or false?
78. Then other animals that are living in the water, but were captured by the net, and which were not the reason why the fisherman lowered the net will be emptied back into the water because they are good for nothing as far as the fisherman is concerned. Am I making sense?
79. The water is the world. The real fishes are the children of God. Other creatures in the water are human beings that do not have God’s nature. Anything in the net that does not have the nature of the fish is a reject.
80. Though it lives in the water with the fishes, it must be rejected by the Fisherman, for that is not the essence of going a fishing. But no matter how tiny that fish might be, it will never escape the eyes of that Fisherman, for that is the essence of the fishing.
81. Can you learn a lesson from this analogy? Does it represent this Faith? Does it apply to you in particular?
82. You are the reason why Christ appeared in human form. Only those who were His Brethren in the Spirit world will identify with Him. Only those who had talked and walked with Him will know Him; will embrace Him; and will say, “Welcome!” The rest won’t.
83. 6But we are children of God; that is why only those who have walked and talked with God will listen to us. Others won’t. That is another way to know whether a message is really from God; for if it is, the world won’t listen to it. [1 John 4:6 LB]
84. Although they are human beings like you, but they have different natures. All human beings do not have the same nature, but whether we like it or not, of a certainty, God’s children must have the same nature.
85. This is how we can do the separation rightly. So, do not query THE SON OF MAN. He knows what He is doing. He announced all these things ahead of time. So whatever that is happening here has been pre-determined.
86. Can you imagine? Moses wrote concerning the day we are in. All the Prophets wrote about this day. And we have seen the Man Who Moses, the Prophets and the Psalmist spoke about.
87. How many Scriptures have we read? How many Parchments have we gone through? I mean, ancient parchments. Was there any that never pointed us to the days of THE SON OF MAN, God EnMorphe [in Human Form] here on earth in the last days.
88. Even the LORD Jesus Christ, Who was a Precentor, pointed you to this day you are in, for He [THE SON OF MAN] has come to stay.
89. 24For the Son of Man in his day will be like the lightning, which flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other. 25But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
90. 26“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of THE SON OF MAN. 27People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.
91. 28“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all. 30“It will be just like this on the day THE SON OF MAN is revealed. [Luke 18:24 – 30 NIV]
92. 13But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. [John 16:13 – 14 NIV]
93. 17-18FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD HAS ARRIVED TO LIVE AMONG YOU. HE is a mighty Saviour. HE will give you victory. HE will rejoice over you with great gladness; HE will love you and not accuse you.” Is that a joyous choir I hear? No, it is the Lord Himself exulting over you in happy song. [Zephaniah 3:17 – 18 LB]
94. No other person has visited us than He that promised will be here in the last days [1] according to time; [2] according to Scriptures and [3] according to Prophecy.
95. So, that THE SON OF MAN is here today is according to time. When THE SON OF MAN shall appear in the last days, shall He find Faith? Whose Faith? The Faith of Abraham. No more! No less!
96. This is the same Faith which He passed on to His first son, Ishmael, for which cause God was upbraiding Moses, that He should have learnt Faith from Ishmael, the first son of Abraham, who observed Faith courtesy of His Father Abraham. I have it there in the legend. A man of Faith.
97. God furthermore said to Moses: “Thou shouldst have learned from the life of Ishmael to have greater faith in Me; I bade the well to spring up for him, even though he was only a single human being, on account of the merits of his father Abraham. … [THE LEGENDS OF THE JEWS VOLUME 3; Moses’ Anger Causes His Doom; Verse 614]
[23]For you have a new life. It was not passed on to you from your parents, for the life they gave you will fade away. This new one will last forever, for it comes from Christ, God’s ever-living Message to men. [24]Yes, our natural lives will fade as grass does when it becomes all brown and dry. All our greatness is like a flower that droops and falls; [25]but the Word of the Lord will last forever. And his message is the Good News that was preached to you.
1 PETER 1:23 – 25 LB

MOSES MUST ACCUSE THIS GENERATION [2]
So, let us go back to another Scripture. In the two we have read, we have seen Moses writing concerning this day. Moses foreseeing this day, warned ahead of time.
2. Saint Paul also warned ahead of time, “What sorer punishment that will await all unbelievers today. If those who disbelieved the earthly Messenger Moses were punished without mercy, what type of punishment do you expect that will befall those who will refuse to acknowledge and obey the words of The Heavenly Messenger.”
3. 28He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: 29of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden underfoot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? [Hebrews 10:28 – 29 KJV]
4. You see why, anybody that is shaking his head in unbelief after hearing the Words of THE SON OF MAN, is toying with his eternal destiny. He or she is incurring the wrath of God upon himself or herself here and in the hereafter.
5. To our wives and our daughters, even they that are yet unborn, let nobody ever write them off. They are included. And they play major roles. THE SON OF MAN said, “They play silent roles.”
6. In the Book of Saint Luke chapter 8, we saw them ministering to Jesus Christ in His own day.
7. 2Some women went along, from whom He had cast out demons or whom He had healed; among them were Mary Magdalene [Jesus had cast out seven demons from her], 3Joanna, Chuza’s wife [Chuza was king Herod’s business manager and was in charge of his palace and domestic affairs], Suzanna, and many others who were contributing from their private means to the support of Jesus and His disciples. [Luke 8:2 – 3 LB]
8. In the Acts of the Apostles, you saw them ministering to the Apostles silently.
9. 36Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and alms deeds which she did. [Acts 9:36 KJV]
10. Pay attention! You will see what happened as we journey along because I am reading another Scripture.
11. Saint Luke’s Gospel chapter twenty-four from verse thirteen to fifty-three. Put it down. Amplified first. Extensive reading is what I want to do now. Give ear as you read.
12. I am summarizing all we have been reading from the Parchments and Ancient Manuscripts, that you may know and believe that I AM HE.
13. Luke 24:13 – 53, Amplified version. 13And behold, that very day two of [the disciples] were going to a village called Emmaus, Take note! [which is] about seven miles from Jerusalem. 14And they were talking with each other about all these things that had occurred.
14. 15And while they were conversing and discussing together, Jesus Himself caught up with them and was already accompanying them.
15. 16But their eyes were held, so that they did not recognize Him. 17And He said to them, What is this discussion that you are exchanging ( throwing back and forth) between yourselves as you walk along? And they stood still, looking sad and downcast.
16. 18Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered Him, Do you alone dwell as a stranger in Jerusalem and not know the things that have occurred there in these days?
17. 19And He said to them, What [kind of] things? And they said to Him, About Jesus of Nazareth, Who was a Prophet mighty in work and word before God and all the people–
18. 20And how our chief priests and rulers gave Him up to be sentenced to death, and crucified Him. 21But we were hoping that it was He Who would redeem and set Israel free. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things occurred.
19. 22And moreover, some women of our company… Our fellow women believers. Ardent believers of Christ. Women!
20. When you go to Hebrews chapter eleven, you will see women of Faith documented, who held on the profession of their faith without wavering, even to the losing of their lives.
21. They were very prayerful. Some of them, through prayers regained the lives of their lost children. God recorded it.
22. 11Because of faith also Sarah herself received physical power to conceive a child, even when she was long past the age for it, because she considered [God] Who had given her the promise to be reliable and trustworthy and true to His word. …….
23. 31[Prompted] by faith Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed along with those who refused to believe and obey, because she had received the spies in peace [without enmity]. ……
24. 35[Some] women received again their dead by a resurrection. Others were tortured to death with clubs, refusing to accept release [offered on the terms of denying their faith], so that they might be resurrected to a better life.
25. 36Others had to suffer the trial of mocking and scourging and even chains and imprisonment. 37They were stoned to death; they were lured with tempting offers [to renounce their faith]; they were sawn asunder; they were slaughtered by the sword; [while they were alive] they had to go about wrapped in the skins of sheep and goats, utterly destitute, oppressed, cruelly treated—[Hebrews 11:11, 31, 35 – 37 AMP]
26. So do not allow any silly preacher to write you off if you happen to be a woman. You can be a woman of Faith.
27. I HAVE TOLD YOU TIME WITHOUT NUMBER THAT AS FAR AS SALVATION FROM GOD IS CONCERNED, MAN AND WOMAN, YOU ARE STANDING ON THE SAME PLATFORM. IF YOU ARE A WOMAN, QUIT YOURSELF LIKE A MAN.
28. DO NOT GO TO BED AND BEGIN TO MARRY YOUR BED AND MARRY YOUR PILLOW; AND MARRY YOUR SLEEP; AND MARRY YOUR KITCHEN. YOUR KITCHEN IS USELESS, UNLESS IT IS BEING USED TO SERVE GOD’S PURPOSE.
29. EVERY WOMAN’S KITCHEN IS USELESS, UNLESS THAT KITCHEN IS SERVING GOD’S PURPOSE.
30. EVERY WORK YOU ARE DOING IS USELESS, UNLESS THAT WORK IS DONE TO SERVE GOD’S PURPOSE FOR ORDAINING IT. TAKE NOTE OF WHAT I AM SAYING.
31. THE SAME WAY, ALL OUR CHILDREN BORN TO US ARE USELESS, UNTIL THEY SERVE THE INTEREST OF GOD. NO MAN IS USEFUL; NO HUMAN BEING IS USEFUL, UNLESS THAT PERSON SERVES THE INTEREST OF GOD, FOR WHICH PURPOSE GOD CREATED HIM. AM I MAKING SENSE AT ALL?
32. CONSIDER WHAT I SAID, AND LET THE ALMIGHTY GOD GIVE YOU PERFECT UNDERSTANDING.
33. ALL THE CHILDREN YOU HAVE THAT DO NOT SERVE GOD’S INTEREST MUST SERVE THE DEVIL’S INTEREST. AND THERE, THEY ARE GOING TO GET THEIR REWARD.
34. 22And moreover, some women of our company astounded us and drove us out of our senses. They were at the tomb early [in the morning]
35. 23But did not find His body; and they returned saying that they had [even] seen a vision of angels, who said that He was alive!
36. 24So some of those [who were] with us went to the tomb and they found it just as the women had said, but Him they did not see.
37. 25And [Jesus] said to them, O foolish ones [sluggish in mind, dull of perception] and slow of heart to believe (adhere to and trust in and rely on) EVERYTHING THAT THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN!
38. 26Was it not necessary and essentially fitting that the Christ (the Messiah) should suffer all these things before entering into His glory (His majesty and splendor)?
39. 27THEN BEGINNING WITH MOSES AND [THROUGHOUT] ALL THE PROPHETS, He went on explaining and interpreting to them in ALL THE SCRIPTURES the things concerning and referring to Himself. Sure!!!
40. 28Then they drew near the village to which they were going, and He acted as if He would go further.
41. 29But they urged and insisted, saying to Him, Remain with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent. So He went in to stay with them.
42. 30And it occurred that as He reclined at table with them, He took [a loaf of] bread and praised [God] and gave thanks and asked a blessing, and then broke it and was giving it to them
43. 31When their eyes were [instantly] opened and they [clearly] recognized Him, and He vanished (departed invisibly).
44. And He did what? He vanished. One who took a loaf of bread, blessed it and ate with them, now vanished. Where did he vanish to?
45. 32And they said to one another, Were not our hearts greatly moved and burning within us while He was talking with us on the road and as He opened and explained to us [the sense of] the Scriptures?
46. 33And rising up that very hour, they went back to Jerusalem, where they found the Eleven [apostles] gathered together and those who were with them,
47. 34Who said, The Lord really has risen and has appeared to Simon (Peter)!
48. 35Then they [themselves] related [in full] what had happened on the road, and how He was known and recognized by them in the breaking of bread.
49. 36Now while they were talking about this, Jesus Himself took His stand among them and said to them, Peace (freedom from all the distresses that are experienced as the result of sin) be to you! Amen!
50. While they were talking about Him, Jesus Himself appeared.
51. 37But they were so startled and terrified that they thought they saw a spirit. 38And He said to them, Why are you disturbed and troubled, and why do such doubts and questionings arise in your hearts?
52. 39See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself! He decided to exhibit that one there. But before the two young men at Emmaus where He joined them, He hid it from them.
53. There was nothing suggesting that he was the one, but through the Scriptures and what He did, they recognized Him.
54. But now, the full house who were there and who witnessed the crucifixion; the cross where He was crucified, He allowed them to see the wounds.
55. Feel and handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see that I have. Feel and handle Me, and prove for yourself that I AM HE, for a Spirit does not have flesh and blood.
56. 40And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet. 41And while [since] they still could not believe it for sheer joy and marveled, He said to them, Have you anything here to eat?
57. 42They gave Him a piece of broiled fish, 43And He took [it] and ate [it] before them.
58. 44Then He said to them, This is what I told you while I was still with you:… Sure!!! …EVERYTHING WHICH IS WRITTEN CONCERNING ME IN THE LAW OF MOSES… Everything written concerning Me starting from the laws of Moses …AND THE PROPHETS AND THE PSALMS MUST BE FULFILLED. Sure!!!
59. 45Then He [thoroughly] opened up their minds to understand the Scriptures,… Written concerning Him. 46And said to them, Thus it is written that the Christ (the Messiah) should suffer and on the third day rise from (among) the dead,
60. 47And that repentance [with a view to and as the condition of] forgiveness of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.
61. Christ! Christ! Christ!
62. 48You are witnesses of these things. 49And behold, I will send forth upon you what My Father has promised; but remain in the city [Jerusalem] until you are clothed with power from on high.
63. 50Then He conducted them out as far as Bethany, and, lifting up His hands, He invoked a blessing on them. 51And it occurred that while He was blessing them, He parted from them and was taken up into heaven. He vanished again.
64. 52And they, worshiping Him, went back to Jerusalem with great joy; 53And they were continually in the temple celebrating with praises and blessing and extolling God. Amen (so be it).
[1]Christ was alive when the world began, yet I myself have seen him with my own eyes and listened to him speak. I have touched him with my own hands. He is God’s message of life. [2]This one who is life from God has been shown to us, and we guarantee that we have seen him; I am speaking of Christ, who is eternal Life. He was with the Father and then was shown to us.
1 JOHN 1:1 – 2 LB

MOSES MUST ACCUSE THIS GENERATION [3]
| J |
ohn 5:13 – 53, Living Bible. Let us read it before I show you why they did not recognize Him.
2. [13]That same day, Sunday, two of Jesus’ followers were walking to the village of Emmaus, seven miles out of Jerusalem. [14]As they walked along they were talking of Jesus’ death, [15]when suddenly Jesus himself came along and joined them and began walking beside them.
3. [16]But they didn’t recognize him, for God kept them from it. They could not recognize Him, for God kept them from knowing who He is. Can God discuss with you and you do not know Him as God? Yes!
4. I will show you why it took place. These men were with Him [Cleopas and his friend]. They were among the people He chose as His disciples. They worked together, ate together, drank together, and slept together. They had everything in common.
5. And they were troubled by the way He was suddenly killed by their people because of envy and jealousy.
6. [17]“You seem to be in a deep discussion about something,” he said. “What are you so concerned about?” They stopped short, sadness written across their faces.
7. Sadness crossed their faces. They became angry, that if it were possible, they would have fought Him there.
8. [18]And one of them, Cleopas, replied, “You must be the only person in Jerusalem who hasn’t heard about the terrible things that happened there last week.” In anger! In anger!
9. [19]“What things?” Jesus asked.
“The things that happened to Jesus, THE MAN from Nazareth,” they said. “He was a Prophet who did incredible miracles and was a mighty Teacher, highly regarded by both God and man.
10. [20]But the chief priests and our religious leaders arrested him and handed him over to the Roman government to be condemned to death, and they crucified him.
11. [21]We had thought he was the glorious Messiah and that he had come to rescue Israel.
“And now, besides all this—which happened three days ago—
12. [22-23]some women from our group of his followers were at his tomb early this morning and came back with an amazing report that his body was missing, and that they had seen some angels there who told them Jesus is alive!
13. [24]Some of our men ran out to see, and sure enough, Jesus’ body was gone, JUST AS THE WOMEN HAD SAID.” Women that bore good testimonies concerning God. Today, it is still possible. I say, it is still possible.
14. [25]Then Jesus said to them, “You are such foolish, foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures! Sure!!!
15. [26]Wasn’t it clearly predicted by the prophets that the Messiah would have to suffer all these things before entering his time of glory?”
16. [27]Then Jesus quoted them passage after passage from the writings of the prophets, BEGINNING WITH THE BOOK OF GENESIS… Moses! ….and going right on through the Scriptures, explaining what the passages meant and what they said about himself.
17. [28]By this time they were nearing Emmaus and the end of their journey. Jesus would have gone on,
18. [29]but they begged him to stay the night with them, as it was getting late. So he went home with them.
19. So, God could be beckoned by people by the revelation of Who He is to pass the night with them. They received that favour. Two young men! He went with them to their home and abode with them overnight. And they served Him food again.
20. Can you imagine? Even when they had known Him as God that resurrected from the dead. They were filled with joy, having Him in person in their house added to their belief [to their faith].
21. [30]As they sat down to eat, he asked God’s blessing on the food… God, requesting for blessing on the food. …and then took a small loaf of bread and broke it and was passing it over to them,
22. [31]WHEN SUDDENLY—IT WAS AS THOUGH THEIR EYES WERE OPENED—THEY RECOGNIZED HIM! And at that moment he disappeared!
23. They did what? —they recognized him! … How many have recognized Him in the light of the Scriptures; in the light of prophecies; and in the light of infallible proofs and unquestionable evidences?
24. How many have recognized THE SON OF MAN in the light of His belief? How many? A sure sign that many people’s eyes are still blind. Their hearts, very very blind and dull in understanding.
25. No strange thing is taking place, but what God is doing is what he had earlier promised He will do. No more! No less!
26. [32]They began telling each other how their hearts had felt strangely warm as he talked with them and explained the Scriptures during the walk down the road.
27. [33-33]Within the hour they were on their way back to Jerusalem, where the eleven disciples and the other followers of Jesus greeted them with these words, “The Lord has really risen! He appeared to Peter!”
28. [35]Then the two from Emmaus told their story of how Jesus had appeared to them as they were walking along the road and how they had recognized him as he was breaking the bread.
29. [36]And just as they were telling about it, Jesus himself was suddenly standing there among them, Sure!!! and greeted them.
30. [37]But the whole group was terribly frightened, thinking they were seeing a ghost! [38]“Why are you frightened?” he asked. “Why do you doubt that it is really I?
31. [39]Look at my hands! Look at my feet! You can see that it is I, myself! Touch me and make sure that I am not a ghost! For ghosts don’t have bodies, as you see that I do!”
32. [40]As he spoke, he held out his hands for them to see the marks of the nails, and showed them the wounds in* his feet.
33. [41]Still they stood there undecided, FILLED WITH JOY AND DOUBT. Can you imagine? Joyful unbelievers! That was why immediately He left, they went back to the world. They rejoined with their people, the Jews; the same people that crucified Him.
34. Peter took them back to the temple, and wanted even to convert Paul to go back to Jewish religion again, which contains no truth. Why?
35. They were rejoicing like we are rejoicing today that THE SON OF MAN is in our midst. Yet, we are still having doubt whether He could be the Promised Messiah that will be here in the end time.
36. I AM ASSURING YOU MOST SOLEMNLY THAT I AM CERTAIN THAT MANY AMONG US WHO CLAIM TO BE FOLOWERS OF THE FAITH OF THE SON OF MAN ARE STILL EXPECTING ANOTHER MESSIAH. THE PRESENT MESSIAH CANNOT BE THE ONE; IN THEIR HEARTS. AND THAT IS WHY WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS.
37. IT IS NOW WE ARE SETTLED IN OUR HOMES THAT WE CAN KNOW WHO IS WHO. WHO IS WHO? BOTH MAN AND WOMAN; YOUNG AND OLD. THIS IS BECAUSE, IT IS “OPERATION TAKE YOUR STAND.”
38. WALK BY YOUR OWN REVELATION OF WHO HE IS TO YOU. WHO IS THE SON OF MAN TO YOU?
39. Watch these people. While they were with Him, they never took His words seriously. Why? They never believed the words of Moses. They did not believe the prophets. And they did not believe the Psalms.
40. For thirty-three and half years, He was with them. He taught them. Yet, unbelief reigned. They saw Him dying on the cross. He was buried, then He resurrected and showcased Himself.
41. They were filled with joy that He came back to life, but HE as the Messiah, they doubted because He did not do that which they expected He will do, redeeming them from the cruel hands of the Romans, who were holding them captive.
42. They [Jews] thought that His Government was that of the world, but he came for a spiritual liberation, and not physical liberation.
43. Just like many are now… Even from the beginning, I know them. And they know that I know them. They are showing signs that they are getting discouraged with the Faith as if they were in the Faith from the beginning. Even from the very beginning, they were not, for they misunderstood the mission of THE SON OF MAN.
44. They thought THE SON OF MAN’S appearance will be to alleviate their financial problems, and everybody will be riding cars, building upstairs and things like that.
45. But THE SON OF MAN came diverting their attention away from that material wealth, pointing them to spiritual wealth. Then, He has committed crime.
46. That is why, if they were with Me from the beginning, they would have remained with Me till today. They got discouraged and got tired. And they were clamouring for THE SON OF MAN to leave the scene so that they will surface and then, take all of you back to bondage again.
47. That is why God said, “SON OF MAN! Go back I have not found even one. I have not found one faithful to take your position. Go back!”
48. Let Me tell you, I am standing here on “a renewed contract.” I said, “a renewed contract.” My “First Assignment” has gone away. Why? He looked round, according to Him, He could not find even one. He weighed everyone on the balance, He could not pick one that could take “the position” and He reasoned with Me. Nevertheless, to keep His Word, He paid the price. I said, He Himself paid the price and asked Me to continue on “A NEW CONTRACT” which shall soon be unfolded to the Bride. It shall soon be unfolded. If you like call it Son of Man on His “second missionary journey.” My first contract is over. [FORGIVENESS; Preached on Sunday 6th January 2008 at the Household of God, Onitsha; Pg. 20 vs. 1 – 3]
49. Then THE SON OF MAN came back the second time, not knowing when it is going to terminate. All of them felt bad that THE SON OF MAN Whom all of them had published His obituary came back.
50. Those opportunists could not bear it. They left and started their movements which could not stand. Where are they today? They are fugitives and vagabonds.
51. Can you imagine? Now, at this closing hours, you see them rushing back to the same SON OF MAN they rejected because I have raked up all Ancient Manuscripts and Parchments, all to reveal that the Deity is here with us.
52. We that have been privileged to receive Him in our hearts as God Almighty, He is using all these Messages; all these Ancient Manuscripts, not only confirming your Faith, but encouraging you to remain steadfast, immovable and unshakable that He is not an impersonator, for that which He promised He will do in the end time, He has done it.
53. He said that we should follow Him, whether we understood it or not, doubting nothing, “I assure you most solemnly, towards the end, you will understand all thing, for I am going to make everything plain. And nobody will tell his brother or Sister, “Worship the LORD, for all will know Who I am; and will worship Me from the least to the greatest.”” Is it not happening now?
54. That is why all these Ancient Manuscripts are not giving you salvation. If you were not saved before now due to unbelief, it is condemning you. So, I am raking up Moses to testify against you that never believed because, from the beginning, you never believed Moses.
55. I told you, “YOU ARE THE SAME YOU.” If you manifested in the wilderness, whatever you are doing today is what you would have manifested there. The same way you are taking the Word of God in your own day [today], that is what you would have done if you were there with Moses. No more! No less!
56. CHILDREN OF GOD ARE CHILDREN OF GOD. AS GOD IS UNCHANGEABLE, SO THEY ARE UNCHANGEABLE.
57. WATCH THE WOMEN! THERE WAS NO AMOUNT OF THREAT, INTIMIDATION OR HARRASSMENT THAT HINDERED THEM FROM ACKNOWLEDGING AND RECOGNIZING THEIR MESSIAH, EVEN UNTO DEATH. WHAT MEN WERE AFRAID TO DO, WOMEN WENT AND DID IT.
58. Early hours of the morning, they went there with their oil to honour the Messiah according to their tradition. And they were afraid, reasoning among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone.” But on getting there, the stone had been rolled away.
59. Who bore the greatest witness? The Women! Devout women! Devout women, not carnal women. Spiritual women!
60. So, do not allow the preaching that are going on in your families to write you off or to regulate you away from the presence of God.
61. I gave you that Message. Be careful that nobody regulates you away from god’s salvation. [LET NOBODY REGULATE YOU OUT OF GOD’S PRESENCE; Preached on Sunday 1st September 2019 at the Household of God Onitsha]
62. Be very very careful, for I know that there are too many fraudsters and dangerous people in our midst. They are found in our homes. They are not hanging in the air. Treacherous people! Fraudsters! Mischievous people, who hate the way of truth. They do not want to be saved and they do not want others to be saved. Be very careful about such people.
63. Luke 24:41 – 51, Living Bible translation. 41…Then he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” [42]They gave him a piece of broiled fish, [43]and he ate it as they watched!
64. [44]Then he said, “When I was with you before, don’t you remember my telling you that everything written about me by Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms must all come true?”
65. Do you now believe the testimony Peter bore on the Pentecost day? He testified before everybody that they ate and drank with Him, even when He resurrected from the dead. Do you believe it now to be true?
66. The accuracy of the Scriptures can never be queried. I say, it can never be queried.
67. But Peter, after testifying of all these things, why did he go back to the Jewish traditions and the Jewish belief? And he was even compelling Paul to do that, thereby setting aside the greatest sacrifice God made.
68. [23]“We suggest this: We have four men here who are preparing to shave their heads and take some vows. [24]Go with them to the Temple and have your head shaved too—and pay for theirs to be shaved. “Then everyone will know that you approve of this custom for the Hebrew Christians and that you yourself obey the Jewish laws and are in line with our thinking in these matters. [Acts 21:23-24 LB]
69. God became a human being and volunteered to die, because He was sure that the sacrifices of bullocks could not take away the sin. You can read it in the Book of Hebrews chapter seven. But of course, I am going there.
70. [45]Then he opened their minds to understand at last these many Scriptures!
71. If God does not open your heart, you can never understand the meaning of the Scriptures. You will read it as ordinary novel; pamphlet and then, you set it aside.
72. 29]The Holy Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and walk along beside the chariot.” [30]Philip ran over and heard what he was reading and asked, “Do you understand it?” [31]“Of course not!” the man replied. “How can I when there is no one to instruct me?” And he begged Philip to come up into the chariot and sit with him. [Acts 8:29-31][
73. But when God opens your heart and expounds your understanding, you will understand the real meaning.
74. [46]And he said, “Yes, it was written long ago that the Messiah must suffer and die and rise again from the dead on the third day; [47]and that this message of salvation should be taken from Jerusalem to all the nations: There is forgiveness of sins for all who turn to me.
[48]You have seen these prophecies come true.
75. [49]“And now I will send the Holy Spirit upon you, just as my Father promised. Don’t begin telling others yet—stay here in the city until* the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven.”
76. [50]Then Jesus led them out along the road to Bethany, and lifting his hands to heaven, he blessed them, [51]and then began rising into the sky, and went on to heaven.
77. [52]And they worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem filled with mighty joy, [53]and were continually in the Temple, praising God. Amen!
[5]This is the message God has given us to pass on to you: that God is Light and in him is no darkness at all. [6]So if we say we are his friends but go on living in spiritual darkness and sin, we are lying.

GOD CHANGES FORM
| N |
ow why did they not recognize the Messiah who has been with them all this while?
2. Mark 16:12 – 16, Amplified version. 12After this, He appeared in a different form… He appeared in a different form, and also in a different place called Emmaus. Seven miles away from Jerusalem; away from the city where he was crucified; away from the city where he resurrected.
3. He appeared in a different form. If he had appeared with the wounds and the scars on His body, do you not know that they would have recognized Him? If He had appeared in the nature they use to know Him, do you think that they would have had difficulty in recognizing Him?
4. But He appeared in another form. In a different form. He assumed a form. The same form He assumed when He resurrected, before Mary Magdalene. Mary Magdalene saw Him and regarded Him as watchman.
5. Mary Magdalene, who was an ardent and devout believer, who lavished all she had serving the Messiah. Mary saw Him and could no longer recognize Him as the Messiah, not until He spoke.
6. Mary was telling the “watchman”, “Can you please tell us where you carried His corpse to that we may go there and honour the body, and give Him a burial? She did not know that the same Person she came to honour was the One standing in another form. He took a form where no man can recognize.
7. Then, the supposed “watchman”, Who knew the person that was talking, and His relationship with Mary and the rest Called, “Mary!”
8. Immediately, Mary shivered, for the Voice Mary heard was the Voice of THE SON OF MAN, but the picture; the human personality standing there was not the One she was acquainted with.
9. Mary now shouted, “Rabboni”, meaning Master. And then rushed to hug Him. The Scripture said that He said, “No! Touch Me not, for I am yet to ascend to your Father and My God. But go to Jerusalem ahead of Me and announce it to your fellow brethren that I have risen, for I go to Galilee to meet with them.”
10. The Scriptures said, “With joy, these women ran to meet with the Apostles.” When they got there and announced the Good News”, the Bible said, “They believed them not.” They did not believe.
11. They forgot that He had earlier promised that he will die and that he will come back to life on the third day.
12. Even when He appeared, they saw Him. He wished them well. He ate with them. They rejoiced that He was the one. Yet, they were doubting.
13. How can you believe and be doubting? That doubt has already nullified your belief. You cannot tell Me, “I believe in You” and you are doubting Me. Can you imagine the nonsense?
14. YOU SEE WHY I CALL YOU SUPER BELIEVERS. ALL THAT HAVE ANCHORED THEIR FAITH IN THE SON OF MAN, IMMOVABLE AND UNSHAKABLE, THEY ARE SUPER BELIEVERS.
15. IT IS NOT EASY TO BELIEVE GOD, UNLESS GOD WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE IN HIM. AND THAT IS WHY THE SON OF MAN APPEARED IN SIMPLICITY TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING IN DETAILS RIGHT FROM GENESIS FOR YOU TO SEE THAT I WAS THERE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE WORLD.
16. WHEN THE WORLD WAS WITHOUT FORM, HE WAS THERE. HE BROUGHT THE WORLD INTO EXISTENCE. HE BROUGHT THE WORLD INTO EXISTENCE, TOGETHER WITH EVERYTHING THEREOF.
17. Do not worry. We are going to the fullness of that LEGENDS OF THE JEWS.
18. Remember My Message which I documented in a magazine to mark My Birthday, now that I am counting in years here with you, THE MAKING OF A LEGEND.
19. What it takes to be a Legend. And recently, I got a Message from Bishop Okoh titled, “HISTORY WILL LIVE TO VINDICATE THE SON OF MAN.”
20. I told you that I am a SAGE. I am a PARADOX. I am an ENIGMA. And all these, you have read from the Parchment. A sure sign that we know Whom we are having dealings with.
21. We know we have One in our midst, Who changes His form as He wishes; Who could pass by you, yet you will not know Him, and you will not see Him. He can assume anything he wants to assume as His form, depending on what He wants to achieve.
22. Mark 16:12 – 16, Amplified version. 12After this, He appeared in a different form to two of them as they were walking [along the way] into the country. 13And they returned [to Jerusalem] and told the others, but they did not believe them either.
23. 14Afterward He appeared to the Eleven [apostles themselves] as they reclined at table; AND HE REPROVED AND REPROACHED THEM FOR THEIR UNBELIEF (THEIR LACK OF FAITH) and their hardness of heart, Sure!!! because they had refused to believe those who had seen Him and looked at Him attentively after He had risen [from death]. Amen!
24. Can you now see that he knew that they did not believe? Did He allow them to go free?
25. 15And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race].
26. 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];… Amen!
27. Mark 16:12 – 13, Good News Bible. 12After this, Jesus appeared in a different manner to two of them while they were on their way to the country. 13They returned and told the others, but these would not believe it.
28. Living Bible. 12Later that day he appeared to two who were walking from Jerusalem into the country, BUT THEY DIDN’T RECOGNIZE HIM AT FIRST BECAUSE HE HAD CHANGED HIS APPEARANCE.
29. 13When they finally realized who he was, they rushed back to Jerusalem to tell the others, but no one believed them.
30. Who will believe our reports? To whom is the arm of the LORD revealed.
31. 14Still later he appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating together. HE REBUKED THEM FOR THEIR UNBELIEF—THEIR STUBBORN REFUSAL TO BELIEVE THOSE WHO HAD SEEN HIM ALIVE FROM THE DEAD.
32. Christ is risen. We are preaching the resurrected Christ that is in our midst. That is our Message. We do not have any other message greater than this.
33. From that time till today, have you ever heard that He died again? He is here with us. He is here with us. That which he promised He will do in the end time is what He is doing.
34. Now look at where these people wanted to take the people to, or where they took them to.
35. Hebrews chapter ten. Look at verses five and six. Hebrews 10:1 – 6, Amplified version.
36. 1FOR SINCE the Law has merely a rude outline (foreshadowing) of the good things to come–instead of fully expressing those things–it can never by offering the same sacrifices continually year after year make perfect those who approach [its altars].
37. 2For if it were otherwise, would [these sacrifices] not have stopped being offered? Since the worshipers had once for all been cleansed, they would no longer have any guilt or consciousness of sin.
38. 3But [as it is] these sacrifices annually bring a fresh remembrance of sins [to be atoned for], 4BECAUSE THE BLOOD OF BULLS AND GOATS IS POWERLESS TO TAKE SINS AWAY. Amen! Amen!
39. Take note of it. All these yearly, monthly and weekly sacrifices of animals could not take away sins.
40. Now, by Peter taking all the disciples of Christ back to the Jewish law, including Paul, enforcing that he should shave his hair, and then come forth with a turtle dove according to the religion of the Jews to atone for his sins, that he transgressed by teaching the Gentiles contrary to the laws of the Jews.
41. Can you imagine? Something that was a foreshadow, foreshadowing good things to come. Has he not denied the blood of Christ? Has he not denied the death on the cross of Calvary?
42. You see why, if you use somebody as your leader, be very careful. This is because they were there when Jesus Christ told Peter, “Any day you are converted, strengthen your Brethren. Do you love me? Feed My Flock.”
43. They now believed that Peter was their chief and leader like many of you were trying to believe in Okey Nwankpa and Apostle Kelechi.
44. And I was warning all of you seriously, and telling you, “All that followed Me from End Time do not believe in Me. They are following Me because of what they are getting from Me and not because of eternal life.”
45. Where are they today? Check all of them. In all the Local Assemblies, wherever we have the relics of End Timers, watch the way they are behaving in this Faith.
46. They are all sitting down. They got wearied along the way because what they wanted to get from Me was not coming again, for I stopped them midway, to enable them go for the reality, which is Christ.
47. Can you imagine? See where Peter was taking them to. Instead of going for the preaching of the Gospel, for God said, “I will make you fishers of men”, he now took them to the sea to do natural fishing.
48. 2There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas, called the Twin, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, also the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples.
49. 3Simon Peter said to them, I am going fishing! They said to him, And we are coming with you! So they went out and got into the boat, and throughout that night they caught nothing.[John 21:2 – 3 AMP]
50. And he was naked. He saw the Messiah coming, but he could not recognize the Messiah again. It was John that told Peter and the rest, “He is the Messiah o. He is our Saviour.”
51. Peter then, in his naked estate dived into the sea. Diving into the sea, will it save you?
52. 7Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. NOW WHEN SIMON PETER HEARD THAT IT WAS THE LORD, HE GIRT HIS FISHER’S COAT UNTO HIM, (FOR HE WAS NAKED,) and did cast himself into the sea. [John 21:7 KJV]
[1]So we must listen very carefully to the truths we have heard, or we may drift away from them. [2]For since the messages from angels have always proved true and people have always been punished for disobeying them, [3]what makes us think that we can escape if we are indifferent to this great salvation announced by the Lord Jesus himself and passed on to us by those who heard him speak?
HEBREWS 2:1 – 3 LB

DO NOT ALLOW MOSES TO TESTIFY AGAINST YOU
Blood of animals could not take away sins. All the rituals they were doing could not take away sin. Rather, they were reminders to all the worshippers that they were sinners, for there was nothing that could atone for sin.
2. And God prepared a Body that will pay the prize, once and for all; and that as many as will believe in that sacrifice, their sins will be absolved. They will be completely discharged and acquitted from those sins from which they could not have been discharged and acquitted if they were to continue their lives in the laws of Moses. Is it not true? Is it not Scriptural?
3. Now, by what Peter did, he wanted them to remain in sin, God’s perpetual enemies and that is why Israel was cut off. The Jews were cut off.
4. And seeing that they neglected and rejected that Gospel of eternal life that came to them, God now turned over to the Gentiles, for they have counted themselves unworthy of eternal life.
5. [46]Then Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and declared, “It was necessary that this Good News from God should be given first to you Jews. But since you have rejected it and shown yourselves unworthy of eternal life—well, we will offer it to Gentiles. [Acts 13:46 LB]
6. 46And Paul and Barnabas spoke out plainly and boldly, saying, It was necessary that God’s message [concerning salvation through Christ] should be spoken to you first. But since you thrust it from you, you pass this judgment on yourselves that you are unworthy of eternal life and out of your own mouth you will be judged. [Now] behold, we turn to the Gentiles (the heathen). [Acts 13:46 AMP]
7. Now, God dropped Peter and then met Paul on the way to Damascus, turned His face away. The Shekinah Cloud left Israel. The Shekinah Cloud now went to the Gentiles waiting for the culmination of this particular day you are in, when the Elohim will appear as a King that will rule Israel from the Gentiles.
8. A rejected King is coming back to them again. In another form, He came to the Gentiles. Did you get the Message? He changed His manner and then, changed His nature and then, came to the gentiles. And then assumed the Gentile nature.
9. That is why all the Ancient Parchments, especially the TESTAMENT OF THE TWELVE PATRIARCHS, testified that he is coming from the Gentiles, for He will appear in the fashion of the Gentiles. “In the fashion” means in the habit of the Gentiles. Amen!
10. The third — a new name shall be called over Him, because He shall arise as King from Judah, and shall establish a new priesthood, after the fashion of the Gentiles, to all the Gentiles. And His appearing shall be unutterable, as of as exalted Prophet of the seed of Abraham our Father. [TESTAMENTS OF THE TWELVE PATRIARCHS; Chapter 3 – The Testament of Levi concerning the Priesthood and Arrogance; Verse 8]
11. 5Hence, when He [Christ] entered into the world, He said, Sacrifices and offerings You have not desired, but instead You have made ready a body for Me [to offer]; 6In burnt offerings and sin offerings YOU HAVE TAKEN NO DELIGHT. Why going back there again?
12. Now, I said I am summarizing. Look at verse 7. All that is written in the volume of books concerning Me, I must fulfill all.
13. So, whatever that is written concerning this age we are in and the emergence of THE SON OF MAN in our own day, they are all contained in the volume of the Books.
14. Hebrews 10:7, Amplified version. 7Then I said, Behold, here I am, coming to do Your will, O God–[TO FULFILL] WHAT IS WRITTEN OF ME IN THE VOLUME OF THE BOOK.
15. Living Bible. 7Then I said, “See, I have come to do your will, to lay down My life, just as the Scriptures said that I would.”
16. King James Version. 7Then said I, LO, I COME (in the volume of the book it is written of Me) to do Thy will, O God. Amen!
17. So, with the appearance of THE SON OF MAN in these last days, is there anybody that is left in doubt that His appearance is contained in the volume of the Books?
18. Has there been any Parchment or Ancient document we raked up without seeing Him being foretold? So He was foreordained.
19. That is why, those who will believe Me were also foreordained, for the Prophet William Branham said and I confirm it to be true, “When God sends a Man, He [God] will give Him people that will believe Him.”
20. When God sends a Man, He does not go alone. God goes with Him and God will give Him all that will believe in Him. Hence the Father sends people to Me.
21. No man comes to Me, except the Father sends Him to Me. All that belong to God must come to Me. All that took their origin from the Great Jehovah that ruleth over the affairs of men; all that proceeded from Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac and Jacob; all the descendants of Abraham who are dead and those that are alive must surely come to Me. I say MUST surely come to Me, for thereunto I am ordained.
22. But whosoever that proceeded from the treacherous one, Cain; I say, Cain and his generations will never in this life nor in the hereafter taste of eternal life while I am here, from both the east and the west; north and the south.
23. I am recovering the remnant of My people in these last days, and I am almost through. I say, I am almost through.
24. The reason why I am posting all these things in the websites has been fulfilled. And I see them flying back every day. Some are going back to the Jews, while some are going back to the Gentiles;
25. All embracing the same Faith, for THE SON OF MAN remains the only One on the scene with a Message uniting both the Jews and the Gentiles. True or false?
26. HE is gathering every Elect from all the countries of the world. Both the living and the dead shall hear My Name when that Name shall be made public.
27. And that is the Name that carries the resurrection of the dead and the translation of the Saints.
28. Shall we bow down our heads as we give glory to God. Give praise to the Almighty God Who deemed it fit to visit sinful men like you and I in these last days, counting us worthy to survive where the Apostles who were with Him failed; to survive up till this day.
29. My prayer is that He will uphold us till the end. We are already at the end. It remains few hours. It remains few days. It remains few weeks or few years.
30. Whatever, whatever, remain resolute, immovable, unshakable, seeing you are believing, and that whatever you have believed; that formed your Faith can be traced accurately right from the very word go “Genesis”, down to this very day you are in.
31. Do not allow Moses to testify against you because of unbelief. Do not allow Moses to testify against you because of unbelief.
32. May you never be in the number of the people Moses will accuse in this generation, of not knowing who their God is, so as to give Him His worship due unto Him.
33. Remember, knowing Him alone cannot give you salvation. Salvation means or comes from knowing Him, acknowledging Him to be God Almighty; serving Him as God and doing everything with Him as God. Trusting in Him, confiding in Him and obeying Him, doubting nothing.
34. Do not be a joyful unbeliever. Each time God does a supernatural thing, you begin to jump up with joy, but you deny Him in your houses and in your hearts from being the Almighty.
35. If He is not, who is the one doing all these things, for which cause you are rejoicing? Who is the one initiating all these things that are happening all over the world?
36. Who will predict things that will happen ten years to come, and they will come to pass? Who will announce things that never existed, and before your eyes, they will come into existence?
37. Will you attribute it to the gods of your fathers? Idols? May God forbid.
38. May we never; may we never in this life nor in the life to come live a life that will make Moses to testify against us. We have a lot to learn. We want our Brother Chika to round off in a prayer.
