IF YOU HAVE BEEN WITH CHRIST, WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE? On THURSDAY 11/02/2021 A Sermon Initiated by Apostle Peter Odoemena, the Son of Man Expanded By Pastor Chizoba Udocukwu
As directed by the Son of Man @ Bridal lodge Nsugbe During usual morning meeting With some brethren In the presence of
1. Pastor Thomas Eze
2. Pastor Chizoba Udochukwu
3. Deacon Chibuko Egwuatu
4. Bro Stephen Eze and Bro. Sunday Eze)
GOD IS DESTROYING YOU OR DESTROYING ME BECAUSE OF MY OWN INIQUITY PERSONALLY. WHICHEVER TREATMENT WE ARE GETTING FROM GOD, IS A REFLECTION OF HOW WE HAVE OBEYED HIM. THIS IS BECAUSE YOU CANNOT OBEY GOD AND INVITE GOD IN YOUR CASE WITHOUT GOD MAKING A PERMANENT ABODE IN YOUR HEART. PUT YOUR HAND IN THE SCRIPTURES, IT IS NOT THERE! BECAUSE YOU OBEYED GOD AS AN ELECT, CALL HIM IN THE TIME OF TROUBLES AND HE WILL RESPOND IMMEDIATELY, BECAUSE YOU ARE A FAITHFUL BELIEVER.
AN UNBELIEVER IS A BURDEN TO HIMSELF PREACHED ON 10TH JULY, 2020; PG. 97:23-24

IF YOU HAVE BEEN WITH CHRIST, WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away; behold, the new has come into being. 2 Cor. 5:17 KJV
2. Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come! AMP
3. Often times, we hear brethren boasting and bragging about what their eyes have seen, their ears heard and their hands handled; all to give credence to their claims that they are with Christ. I have nothing against such claims because it is the right of every individual to claim anything but what remains is the substantiation of such claims.
4. We are not far from the kingdom but one thing remaineth and that thing is substantiation of our claims showing the evidence that we are in Christ
5. We have seen a series of many convincing demonstrations, unquestionable evidences and infallible proofs which Christ has been displaying as a proof that He is the One with us.
6. Today, nobody can boldly stand up and disprove, annul and refute the Christ in Apostle Peter Odoemena. This is because He has not only manifested all the divine attributes of Christ but has lived the life for all eyes to see. By this, God has finished with us, but we have not finished with God because to whom much is given, much is expected.
7. But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. Luke 12:48 KJV.
8. “But anyone who is not aware that he is doing wrong will be punished only lightly. Much is required from those to whom much is given, for their responsibility is greater. Luke 12:48 LB.
9. If we have been over taught, where is the evidence? If you have acknowledged and recognized that you have God in person as your teacher, where is the evidence? Why must those who we refer to as heathens that are under taught or not taught at all behave wiser than those who claim to be with Christ?
10. Now, it is our turn to present the true token, the evidence that we are in Christ; that we have walked and talked with Him.
11. The questions posed to us by that Divine Incarnate are thus, are you sure you know Christ? Are you sure you have met Christ? Are you sure you are with Christ?
12. Are you sure you are among the earthen vessels He emptied himself into? Has Christ been reproduced in you? Are you sure you are convinced about the Christ in our midst?
13. Where is the evidence? Are you sure you are Christ walking on two feet since every human being must resemble the god he worships? Who do you resemble? Seeing that Christ is here on earth, he is found in no other place but in Afrik as prophesied by Prophet Muhammad, in one of the jungles in Africa as prophesied by Prophet William Marion Branham.
14. Seeing that he has come according to prophecy, according to time, according to scripture, according to Holy Quran, according to events, according to ancient manuscripts and according to nature, his coming and his presence has been established.
15. He now asks us whether we are with Him. If we are with Him, what is the evidence?
16. The Son of Man: If you are recording what I am saying, it will form a big message. It was a message I handled in our morning altar yesterday, which was not recorded. Begin to see where the condemnation lies.
17. Begin to see also where the justification lies; for if any does not have the spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ and Christ cannot claim him.
18. But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit, if the [Holy] Spirit of God [really] dwells within you [directs and controls you]. But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God] Rom. 8:9 AMP
19. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. Rom. 8:9 NIV.
20. You are not a property of Christ, if the spirit of Christ is not abiding in you. It is not knowing this truth and teaching it or proclaiming it that matters, no no no.
21. That is why the prophet William Branham said, “don’t preach me a sermon but live me a sermon.”
22. Hear My Voice Oh Heaven, Hear My Voice Oh Earth Vol.1 16/6/2019 Chapter 3:43-63 So we do not have any other person assigned to you to begin to watch you and give us report. No!
23. Rather, you report yourself every day, for Allah takes record of what you are doing everyday whether you like it or not. If you think nobody is seeing you, He is seeing you.
24. There is no minister who is in his right sense and mind that will take delight in excommunicating his followers, his brethren for no just cause.
25. And the same thing I am saying before, I am saying it again. That is where I am striking.
26. The Voice said that I am yet to see a minister that has patterned after Me. Brethren, has this Voice ceased. This is where it gives Me a lot of concern. This Message was preached in 1996.
27. If by now, there is no Minister that is worthy of THE SON OF MAN’S confidence, it then means we are playing mere church. We are playing religion. We are not sincere with our avowed Faith.
28. There is one thing that keeps My heart afloat. THERE IS NOBODY HERE WHO DOES NOT HAVE POWER OVER HIS DECISIONS. EVERY HUMAN BEING HAS POWER OVER HIS OR HER DECISIONS.
29. IN THE SAME WAY, YOU HAVE POWER OVER YOUR CHARACTER. ANY LIFE YOU HAVE DECIDED TO LIVE IS THE ONE YOU WILL LIVE. AND YOU HAVE CHOSEN IT BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU JOY.
30. SO, CHECK THE LIFE YOU HAVE DECIDED TO LIVE, AND THAT IS WHAT DETERMINES YOUR ETERNAL DESTINY, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
31. Bro IK Ezindu, I hope you are taking note. THIS IS NOT THE HOME OF RELIGION. THIS IS THE HOME OF FAITH.
32. Everywhere is calm. If you know you do not have the power over your decisions, show by raising your hand. You know you do not have power over your decision, show by raising your hand.
33. SO YOU ARE DOING WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE DECIDED TO BE DOING, WHETHER GOD LIKES IT OR NOT, WHETHER IT CONFORMS TO THE DOCTRINES OF CHRIST OR NOT.
34. You see why hell is not for everybody, but for such people that have decided to take the wrong decisions after knowing the Truth?
35. I am yet to see one who is fully determined to follow God. Fully determined. If you go to the Message, THEY FORSOOK ALL AND FOLLOWED HIM, it is very sweet in the mouth, but in practice, [I say in practice] it becomes increasingly difficult.
36. Why? You made it impossible. You made it a big load, because you are telling yourself lies. You are telling God you have made up your mind to follow when you do not mean it.
37. We use to sing, [I am ready to obey The Living Word of God]. We sing because it is sweet. Where He leads me, I will follow. It is a lie. It is a lie.
38. We sing because others are singing. We sing because we think it is sweet. We are making melody. God is not interested in such lip service worship.
39. God is not interested in such lip service. How many brethren have collectively and individually made promises to God without abiding by them? Though they have been taught about the implications, they hardened their hearts because they have control over their actions.
40. They do what they have decided to do. How many people still worship God not to talk of worshipping in spirit and in truth? Man delights in lip service worship thinking that God can be mocked or deceived.
41. IF YOU ARE NOT READY TO COUNT YOUR LIFE AS NOTHING, YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO BE THE SON OF MAN’S DISCIPLE. IF I HAVE ESTEEMED MY LIFE MORE THAN YOUR SALVATION, DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
42. I PLACED MY LIFE ON THE LINE BECAUSE OF YOU. EVEN WITH THE DOCTRINES, I WAS BOUND BY AN OATH, “ANY DAY I TAMPER WITH IT FOR ANYTHING SELFISH GAIN, I MUST PAY WITH MY LIFE.” MY LIFE IS TIED TO MY DOCTRINE. MY WORD REMAINS MY BOND.
43. YOU MAY THINK I HATE YOU. YOU HATE YOURSELF. THE MOMENT YOU ARE NOT ON THE LORD’S SIDE, YOU ARE ON THE DEVIL’S SIDE, FOR YOU CANNOT BE ALONE. YOU CANNOT BE ALONE.
44. IF YOU ARE NOT WORKING WITH GOD, YOU ARE WORKING WITH THE DEVIL. IF GOD IS NOT WITH YOU, THE DEVIL IS WITH YOU. THEY ARE TWO OPPOSING POWERS.
45. WHO DETEMINES THE ONE THAT WILL BE WITH YOU? IT IS YOUR DECISION. YOU HAVE THE POWER TO DECIDE THE ONE YOU WILL WORK WITH.
46. Then the Son of Man went further to ask you, is your life worthy of the gospel which you have preached or which you have received?
47. This is where we are because nobody tells his neighbor that he is devil or that he will go to hell. You will discover all these things yourself.
THE ALMIGHTY GOD WILL PROJECT HIS GIFTS IN YOU AND WILL NEVER LIKE TO SHARE THAT TEMPLE WITH THE DEVIL, FOR GOD WILL LIKE TO PROTECT HIS GIFTS IN EVERY MAN GOD HAS CHOSEN. But when you are walking contrary and only wishing that God will perform another miracle than the miracle of giving you the Word which, if you will obey, will cleanse you, sanctify you, make you holy, consecrate you and set you apart for God’s own service, no miracle will happen.

WE MUST ALL HAVE ONE CHARACTER AND ONE SPIRIT
IS YOUR TICKET VALID AND OKAYED? Volume 2 (22/9/2019)Chapter 1:44-50
2. WE MUST ALL HAVE ONE CHARACTER AND ONE SPIRIT, BECAUSE BY ONE SPIRIT ARE WE ALL BAPTIZED INTO ONE BODY. [1 Corinthians 12:13 KJV] AND IF WE HAVE ONE SPIRIT AND THE SPIRIT CONTROLS OUR CHARACTER, OUR CHARACTERS MUST BE ONE.
3. Ministers, take note! Whatever is your motive in the Faith, it is what you are going to reap in the end. Some people preach the Message with wrong motive. Yes!
4. A Minister can be in the pulpit, preach the right Message with a wrong motive. In other words, your Message is the Holy Ghost. It is true, but the motive is wrong.
5. YOU MUST PREACH THE RIGHT MESSAGE WITH THE RIGHT MOTIVE. I repeat: IT MUST BE THE RIGHT MESSAGE WITH THE RIGHT MOTIVE.
6. We do not fight one another in the pulpit. We do not try to make converts to ourselves, by coming to the pulpit to pamper people in unbelief so that they will love and cherish us.
7. We do not do that. We do not come to the pulpit to make friends. Friends are too far away from the pulpit. This is the reason why I said that all local churches must stay in their own set-ups.
8. They know themselves and they understand themselves. In Jerusalem, you know yourselves and you can understand yourselves also.
9. However in all, there is nobody that will be excused in the last day. Believe it if you can, you are coming with one token, you are presenting only but one character.
10. IS YOUR TICKET VALID AND OKAYED? Volume 2 (22/9/2019) Chapter 5:1-17 From the very word go, I made every Tom, Dick and Harry to know that this faith is not a literary faith, it is purely empirical.
11. Any day you begin to look at it from the theory angle, you will fumble. Everything about this faith is purely practical, that can be easily demonstrated.
12. And I made it clear to all and sundry; if there be any aspect of this faith that you find difficult to obey, if I can wreck up somebody past or present that obeyed it with ease, you have no more excuse. More so, when I am a living human being like you.
13. Any moment from now my marriage will clock 32 years and I give God the praise. We are still marching on. When you say, grace of God, grace of God, that is; if you can allow the grace of God to have his way.
14. For the grace of God has been revealed, teaching us to avoid everything godlessness and to live righteously in peace with everybody in this present world.
15. Grace of God did not say we should come here and kill ourselves and then destroy things that are meant for our own peace with our hands; set our homes or families ablaze all in the name of grace.
16. Who introduced that grace? I AM THE GRACE OF GOD; FOR THE LAW CAME BY MOSES, GRACE AND TRUTH CAME BY CHRIST. FINISH. I AM HERE. I AM THE END OF THE LAW. I AM THE END OF THE PROPHETS; FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS NOW TO BE IMPUTED TO PEOPLE THAT WILL BELIEVE THE REVEALED FAITH OF CHRIST.
17. This is the time when the righteous shall live by faith. Living by faith means to be identified in the light of their belief. Go to the book of Enoch. We will know you. We will identify you not with your face, not with your dress, not with your preaching but in the light of your character which is a reflection of your belief.
18. The last hurdle where we are now and we will not stay long there. Look at it. Look at it. You cannot come here until this one is settled.
19. WHAT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT? IT IS THE CONCENTRATION OF THE WORD OF GOD IN YOU. WHEN THE WORD OF GOD IS DWELLING IN YOU RICHLY IN ALL WISDOM, IT WILL HELP YOU TO BEGIN TO DISCERN THAT WHICH IS PROPER, THAT WHICH IS GOOD, THAT WHICH IS NOBLE, THAT WHICH IS THE ACCEPTABLE WILL OF GOD.
20. Because everything shall be weighed by the Word. Once the Word does not condemn that thing, you step up. That is the pyramid, very narrow. You see faith, this is bride of Christ, how wide it is.
21. The higher you go, the narrower it becomes. How many people are patient with each other now? How many people know anything called godliness? What can we say about brotherly affection which is Laodicea, William Branham? Whether you like it or not, you must pass through these seven steps then, this is where you are landing.
22. Nothing is found in paradise but perfect love, that is why he said; go, show love one to another. By so doing, people will know that you are My disciples indeed. It does not require much preaching. That is why I am giving you the key areas.
23. You cannot measure your love where there is no condition where love is needed. God must create a condition where love is needed, where patience is needed, where temperance is needed; where knowledge is needed, where brotherly kindness is needed. God must create the condition.
24. And remember, you cannot fail year one and then go over to year two in any school. Sometimes, the level of failure may be fail and fail out. So if you fail in number one and you are carrying along with us, you are wasting your time.
25. You must go and remedy your carry over. Now we have come to the end. We are expecting our graduation day. The final examination comes and you have been failing in all these.
26. THE SON OF MAN is saying, go to your H.O.D. Your H.O.D may be your pastor, your ministers, re-register all. I say, re-register all, for you must remedy all otherwise, no graduation.
27. That is why the scripture said, “do you not know by your ever increasing, continuous knowledge, progressive knowledge, progressive and continuous manifestations of good traits, do you not come to discern for yourself whether what you are doing is being propelled by the spirit of Christ or by your own inordinate passion?”
28. Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves [[a]not Christ].
29. Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience] that Christ is in you—unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected? 2 Cor. 13:5 AMP.
30. Check up on yourselves. Are you really Christians? Do you pass the test? Do you feel Christ’s presence and power more and more within you? Or are you just pretending to be Christians when actually you aren’t at all?I hope you can agree that I have stood that test and truly belong to the Lord. 2 Cor. 13:5 LB.
31. Indices of a failed family, individual, man of God, this and that – it has indices. When you are being propelled, driven by your inordinate passions, it will not stop you from having knowledge of the truth.
32. It will not stop you from sharing testimony that you were there when the glory came down, you heard the voice from the excellent glory. “We own this faith. We were there when it was happening” and God will be watching the self-acclaimed owners of the faith from a distance.
33. Look at your head, look at your mouth. What is deceiving you? You have enlarged supernatural photographs hanged in your homes you captured with your hands.
34. Capturing supernatural photograph with your hand is it the crux of the matter? After witnessing all those things, what next?
35. IS YOUR TICKET VALID AND OKAYED? Volume 2 (22/9/2019) Chapter 1:44-64
36. It is you that are commanded to pattern after him that will be on duty, to make sure that you know his character. You know Me, My manner of life, My doctrine and you have to use Me as your example.
37. One; you must believe My doctrine. Two; you must pattern after Me in character, pattern after Me in every way. If you say you believe Apostle Peter Odoemena, you have said a very nice thing.
38. It is commendable. But if you do not do what He has done, if you do not pattern after Him, you are a liar. If any man says he believes Christ, and he does not pattern his life after Christ, is he not a liar?
39. How many of you now can sit down and say, “God, thank you for giving us a perfect instructor and leader in our day, one we can look up to?” It is very easy to acknowledge the Deity around THE SON OF MAN.
40. It is very easy to acknowledge the Message, even the revelation. Now, how many of you have acknowledged that God has sent me to lead you home? How many of you have believed that I am THE SON OF MAN by revelation?
41. How many of you have believed that the Message I have given to you is truth from the very Bible? How many of you have believed this thing and said, “Thank you for my life and the life of my Brother, the Apostle are now one?”
42. How many can say so? The life of my brother, the apostle What moves this man? What thrills Him, what and what He does, what and what He does not want to see.
43. Why is this man claiming He is a broad-minded man? For you to pattern after a man, you must walk closely to that man. If you do not walk closer to Christ THE SON OF MAN, you cannot study Him.
44. What is the evidence that you have been with Christ; that you have for one day been personally and practically acquainted with Christ?
45. Acquaint now yourself with Him [agree with God and show yourself to be conformed to His will] and be at peace; by that [you shall prosper and great] good shall come to you. Job 22:21 AMP.
46. Give in to God, come to terms with him and everything will turn out just fine. Let him tell you what to do; take his words to heart.
47. Come back to God Almighty and he’ll rebuild your life. Clean your house of everything evil.
48. Relax your grip on your money and abandon your gold-plated luxury. God Almighty will be your treasure, more wealth than you can imagine.Job 22:21-25 MSG (The Message).
49. I have heard testimonies of last Sunday and two Sundays ago – Son of Man as God, Son of Man as man after which the wife followed. After the man comes the wife.
50. God knows why he incorporated it in that magazine and called it The Making of a Legend. The moment the husband and wife are mentioned, by and by, the children must come in because they are in there.
51. They were in there from the day the family was established. From the day the family was established, the children were in there waiting to be born. While coming out, they collect traits from both parents to become a blend of the two.
52. If they don’t get that blend, there must be problem. The reason why Abraham married a godly wife was to get godly children having known Abraham from the foundation of the world even when Abraham was a pagan.
53. For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. Gen. 18:19 KJV.
54. The reason why God directed Abraham to marry that godly wife was to get godly children having known Abraham from the foundation of the world even when Abraham was a pagan.
55. A pagan in the sense that he was born in a pagan family, but there was no record that he joined his father in worshipping idol.
56. Neither did he worship God. However, intuitively, God had already placed a seal in him. Before he was born a human being and the only son, God had already placed that seal, mark of ownership when he was in his mother’s womb.
57. God knew He would use Abraham for a purpose; He brought him out in human form. That same God was the one instrumental to selecting the wife Sarah, selecting Hagar for a maid who culminated into a wife.
58. The same way, I believe that the three hundred and eighteen that were with him drawn from different nations and other places, God was the one, for God had already purposed to save them through Abraham. He gave Abraham people that would help him to train his children.
59. Abraham trained those dwelling with him – the house boys and girls, they in turn helped him to groom his own children and nobody among them gave Abraham headache. They all formed a super family. There is no record that all of them came from one nation.
60. There Abraham took off knowing that he would possess the whole earth with his sons and daughters. Then, God who caused the separation from unbelief decided to move him away after the burial of his late father. “What else do you have in this land? You have no mother; you have no father. Now, move.” All that would drag him back were first removed.
61. until Isaac, the second son grew up and became a man, he told his chief servant to go back to their own kindred for that was where he wanted him to get a wife for Isaac.
62. Isaac worshiped that same God because Abraham espoused his sons to that same God. He espoused that same God to Ishmael and Isaac so that when Abraham died, Ishmael and Isaac buried him.
63. And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre. Gen. 25:9 KJV.
64. They took off with that same God. He became the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob down the line. There was no time the lineage was exterminated. If you know when it was exterminated, tell us because it culminated into Jesus Christ.
65. From there, the overspreading continued. That is why he knew the attributes of Abraham. He knew his qualities and the evidence.
66. So when he met people claiming to be sons and daughters not born by fornication, he watched them and said thank you very much, there is no need fusing and battling with you. Look at what you are manifesting.
67. This character was it the character of your father Abraham you are quoting? How can you have Abraham as your father and then behave this way? Was it his behavior? Was he known by this?
68. If he happens to be alive right now and see me moving, a righteous man that did no evil, do you think he would have treated me the same way you have treated me? Casting stone, coming all out to kill a man who committed no crime only that he told you the truth.
69. What is the truth? He said well, there is no need going further for you are of your father the devil. His deeds you will continue to do. He was a liar from the very beginning and abode not in the truth and has become the father of all liars.
70. Where is the evidence that you have been with Christ all these years? Where is your respect for God? Where is your humility? Where is the attitude of Christ in you?
The essence of Christ coming to give us His words is not to improve our academic standard. No! But He came to improve our spiritual, moral and physical standards so that we will be like Him. All these Messages we have received from God, they are aimed at presenting us as role models to the whole society. [They are] aimed at presenting us unspotted from the world. THE MESSAGE WILL REPLACE THE OLD INFORMATION WITH THE NEW INFORMATION, AND IT WILL GIVE YOU A NEW CHARACTER. DID YOU GET THE MESSAGE?

HOW ACCESSIBLE ARE YOU TO OTHERS?
IS YOUR TICKET VALID AND OKAYED? Volume 2 (22/9/2019) Chapter 3 10-22 He said, let your attitude be that of Christ who although He had the authority as the creator of the heaven and the earth, humbled Himself down, and took a position of a slave, took a position of a servant and was being tossed to and fro .
2. I am not trying to exalt myself, but I believe I have even the right to boast a little. I am saying that many of you in this faith know very well that if you were privileged to find yourself even in My position in the church, nobody dares come to your gate.
3. To see you will be very difficult, you will be another tin-god. Do not doubt it. The way you are letting yourself out to your brethren even when you are nothing will tell you how you would have exalted yourself if you were something.
4. Humility is scriptural if it is practiced by another person but humility should be our attribute. It should be our character for it is our doctrine. Many of you would have even arrogated to themselves the position of the Head of State.
5. Even Head of State would have been better; for some will even find it difficult to open their doors to talk to brethren. They would even talk to them from the window, if at all they will come out.
6. Some will even confine themselves in the bedroom and pretend that they are studying just for them to avoid the troubles of Brethren. How many of you can afford to leave their doors open to welcome even the least in our midst?
7. I mean infants that come from your homes. Even for no other thing, they are coming to say hello to brother or sister. I know some of them that come to Me. They do not come to do any service. They just come and embrace Me in the house.
8. They join my children after which they will go. Many of you come in and see some of them. You will be afraid lest they spoil your seats, spoil your carpet or rug and, maybe, finish your food, or if they come today and come next time, they are no longer coming for fellowship.
9. It is for food alone. Even if they come for food, he that is filled will rest. Is there anybody with four stomachs? HOW ACCESSIBLE ARE YOU TO OTHERS? What am I saying? Translation has narrowed down.
10. Besides, I told you that this is the greatest stumbling block we are going to cross. The last hurdle we are going to jump is love and nothing is found in paradise except perfect love. The last in the pyramid; very narrow.
11. Where is the love of Christ evidenced in your dealings with one another? That is why when you say you believe and you are living a contrary life, you are telling lies.
12. They said they have Abraham as their father, but they could not reflect the character of Abraham. It said that when a son is seen, the father will be remembered. If you have been with Christ, what is the evidence?
13. CHAPTER 1:22, 29-30 THE SECRET OF TRANSLATION, WHO IS YOUR MASTERPIECE? EVEN IF I KEPT IT SECRET ALL THESE YEARS, I THINK BY NOW IT HAS BECOME PLAIN.
14. This is because when you believe in Him, all His attributes of humankind will come to you. If He is immortal, you are immortal.
15. Whatever He is, that is what you are. Then, you must pattern after somebody whether you like it or not. I am coming nearer to the Message. Who is your masterpiece? This is the secret of translation. The moment you discover your masterpiece, happy are you.
16. But you can discover him without patterning after him. Then you will be like one who looks at the mirror, sees dents and pimples on his face and walks away. He will soon forget how his face looks like.
17. This is a message. Anybody can go and break it down in his own way. If you have been recording all I am saying; okey now, pastor I challenge you. Your school will terminate one day but eternity will roll.
18. Your certificate has a limit but eternity has no limit. All you have heard from me this morning, the topic is, If You have been with Christ, What is the evidence?
19. If any man be in Christ, if any man has ever been with Christ, if any man is acquainted with Christ, he becomes a brand new fellow within.
20. He is no longer what he used to be before. A new life automatically starts there to the astonishment of people living round about.
21. My Salvation is now in my Hands Vol. 1 27/7/2014 pg 142:68-70 – Once you are in Christ, you have become a new brand individual, your nationality automatically changes, your mode of worship changes.
22. You are a true Jew whether you come from America or Great Britain, I don’t care. Provided you fall within the ambit God regulated that will be given salvation together with their descendants.
23. You are accommodated on one ground, that you must not pass with customary and cultural circumcision of your excess flesh, but you will be judged by the level of circumcision of your heart.
24. If the evidence you have is that you have changed from one denomination to another, it is like changing your dresses. If you change from red to purple, you are the same you. You change from jeans to wrapper, you are the same you.
25. Whether you leave your hair long or short, you are the same you. You bleach your skin and become light, the heart is not bleached. Until the heart is bleached, you have not bleached. You are still dirty.
26. Until the heart is clean, you are not clean. That is why Jesus told them, first cleanse your heart, your entire body will be clean Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean Matt. 23:26 NIV.
27. So don’t lay emphasis on washing hands, outward cleanliness before eating when the heart is still filthy. So it is very pertinent that we understand what God teaches us.
28. In the days of the Son of Man, there are too many evidences people will bring to their condemnation. These were the signs God gave.
29. For God never sent a prophet without signs and people have always been overlooking these signs. Those that said they believe in them do not believe in the teachings that accompany the signs for there can never be signs without teachings that will get you convinced where the signs are coming from.
30. Allah is an expert in showing supernatural signs. We shall show them Our signs in every region of the earth and in themselves, until it becomes clear to them that this is the Truth. Is it not enough that your Lord witnesses everything? Quran 41:53 Abdul Haleem.
31. And every sign is a stop sign. Wait for the voice, whatever the voice will tell you is what you will obey. Where is the voice pointing you to? If the voice points you to idol, God is testing you to know whether your loyalty in Him is steadfast. He must have taught you the real truth.
32. If there be a dreamer of dreams or a prophet and he prophesies, whatever he says or dreams comes to pass and he points you to another god order than Jehovah, don’t ever give ear to it. It is God that is testing you to know whether you are steadfast.
33. “If there is a prophet among you, or one who claims to foretell the future by dreams, and if his predictions come true but he says, ‘Come, let us worship the gods of the other nations,’ don’t listen to him.
34. For the Lord is testing you to find out whether or not you really love him with all your heart and soul. You must never worship any God but Jehovah; obey only his commands and cling to him. Deut. 13:1-4 LB.
35. It is very important that you understand what we are preaching. In that day, whether today or tomorrow, I know many will come – Son of Man, I was the one that took that photograph
36. . I was the one that framed it. I was the one that did this and that. I was in the fellowship that day when the glory came down.
37. Even, He moved near my side. I heard the footprint. Daddy, I was there when you were judging the case, the Supreme Court Trial. Daddy I can tell the story.
38. I accompanied you to missionary trips where the dead rose up, where you did this, where the heathens even rushed in mass and worshipped you. Daddy I was practically and personally acquainted with you.
39. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Matthew 7:22 KJV.
40. He will say, are you through? Have you finished with your oratory? Well, you are a true witnesses period. I don’t need true witnesses.
41. I bear witness of myself but I have One who bears the greatest witness and His witness is true and that is my Father who sent me not you. Not you. I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me John 8:18 NIV.
42. That is why the Son of Man does not preach or do anything to impress anybody. No! Who are you and why should I impress you? If I become another men pleaser, my God will parcel me home.
43. My life is tied to the gospel; and I don’t think God will use me as a perfect example and at the end He will show me a way out.
44. I am not a servant; I am a son. I am not a servant of God, I am a son of God; I am a child of God.
45. WHO IS THIS MAN [THE SON OF MAN] PART 1 VOLUME 2; (8/5/2016) Page 98 from verse 62 down.
46. If He is convinced that He cannot live with you in peace eternally, [and] that the trouble you are giving Him here, if you put on immortality, it will be worst, definitely, you are lost.
47. If I cannot control your excesses here, I cannot control it there. For whatever you are here is what you will be there. You are the same you. THIS IS WHY YOU MUST GIVE YOURSELF A PLACE WHILE YOU ARE ALIVE. Sure!!! YOU MUST BE KNOWN FOR SOMETHING.
48. Let God be identified with your character. You do not belong to the terrestrial creatures. [And] you do not belong to the [celestial] creatures. Do not be a bat. You have the leg of a rat, and teeth. Birds do not have teeth.
49. Where do you belong? Do not be a bat. A bat is neither a celestial creature nor a terrestrial creature. What is a bat? When you look at it, you will notice that it has a head like that of a rat, with wings for it can fly. It equally has two legs. It has teeth.
50. It is neither a celestial nor a terrestrial animal. It runs on the ground. And it also flies in the air. Its bite is deadly to a human being. Have you ever seen a bird that has teeth? Good!
51. You are not hot. You are not cold. A lukewarm child of God. He will spill you out of His mouth. [Revelation 3:16]
52. You must come out and let Me know where you belong. Yes! For he that is not with Me is against Me. He that is not gathering is scattering. [Matthew 12:30; Luke 11:23]
53. What are you? If you see white, you turn white. [When] you see black, you turn black. You are a Chameleon. You have no colour.
54. You are not a Christian. You are not a pagan. You are not Muslim. You are not a child of God. You are not a child of the devil. What are you? Is “ALL OF YOU” [the] name of a person? It is not a laughing matter.
55. It is a serious case! If you go to some Churches, in the book of Revelation, they were lukewarm, they were neither hot [nor] cold. The Lord Jesus Christ in His Spirit indicted them to take their stand.
56. [Revelation 3:15 – 16] I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.
57. This is not the Faith where somebody will sit on the fence. You must declare your stand and be ready to pay the price. Yes! I have made My stand known and nobody can change it.
58. You cannot! You must declare your stand, produce a visible evidence that you have walked and talked with Christ.
59. This is the period the Word will shake not only the earth, but the starry heavens, that all these things without taproot, without formidable foundation, would be shaken away; So that those things that have taproot will stand. You must have taproot in what you believe.
…NOW, THAT THE LIFE YOU ARE LIVING NOW IS NOT BEING CONTROLLED BY YOUR HUMAN SENSES, RATHER, THE WORD OF GOD IS CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE. IF THE WORD OF GOD IS CONTROLLING MY LIFE, AND CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE, IT MEANS THAT WE WILL BE ONE. AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHERE CHRIST WANTS TO BRING THE CHURCH TO. THAT IS WHAT WE CALL PERFECTION..

BY YOUR CHARACTER I KNOW WHO YOU ARE
When God is counting His children, my name is there. If He is counting his servants, I am not there. If He is counting his witnesses, I am not there because witnesses are those that form members of the church.
2. Anybody that is in the church when any supernatural occurrence takes place automatically is a witness. He can testify “that which our eyes have seen, our ears heard and our hands handled, that we declare unto you.
3. Believe it because our gospel is true”. Where is the evidence? Evidence, is it what your eyes saw, your mouth testified and hands handled? Are they the evidences? You will be jumping up and down that your gospel has no comparison.
4. People will be asking you, “Where is your church. I would like to follow you oh. Your church is the highest oh”. You will be rejoicing.
5. At the end of the day, you will become the highest in hellfire. You are qualifying yourself to the highest pit to enter hell for knowing the truth and refusing to apply it in your day.
6. That is why the question went thus, “How will I know those that are with me and those that are not with me”.
7. The reply is: Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
8. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Matthew 7:16-20 KJV
9. You will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? Even so, every healthy (sound) tree bears good fruit [worthy of admiration], but the sickly (decaying, worthless) tree bears bad (worthless) fruit.
10. A good (healthy) tree cannot bear bad (worthless) fruit, nor can a bad (diseased) tree bear excellent fruit [worthy of admiration]. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire. Therefore, you will fully know them by their fruits. Matthew 7:16-20 AMP
11. Holy Quran 47:30 Now had We so willed, We could have shown them clearly to thee, so that thou wouldst know them for sure as by a visible mark: but [even so,] thou wilt most certainly recognize them by the tone of their voice. And God knows all that you do, [O men;]
12. (THE PAINS OF LABOUR AND THE JOY OF DELIVERY) PART 1 VOLUME 2 Preached on Sunday, 8th May, 2016 Chapter 6:44-50
13. Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matt. 7:21 KJV.
14. You call Me Lord; you call Me Master, that is what I am. But if I am Lord and Master over you according to what you are calling Me, why is it that you do not pay heed to My words? Why is it that My word does not have its rightful effect in your life?
15. Why is it that My words cannot influence your character positively? Why are you still holding on to the old way of doing things, your old way of reasoning, old way of dressing, old way of talking, old way of drinking, old way of eating? What makes you a new creature?
16. Is it not when you dance to the tune of the Message you have received? Is it not when you have hearkened and believed that the word you have heard will become the spirit dwelling in you?
17. Is it not the spirit of a man that directs his character? So, by your character I know whether you are with Me or not. So, it is not calling Me Lord, Master, Daddy, Son of Man, that qualify you for the kingdom of heaven, but you MUST do the will of He that sent Me.
18. And this is the will of He that sent Me that you believe in Him whom He has sent.
19. For by their fruits, you shall know them. If there be any that does not bear this fruit, he must be destroyed.
20. So, this is not the time we make noise and jump up and down. It is upon the perception of who He is, that you begin to bear fruit according to the Faith. You begin to bear the fruit meet for repentance.
21. Failure to bear the fruit meet for repentance cancels all you profess. There is no messenger from God that does not know about this matter.
22. God demanded the slaughter of Isaac as one of the evidences that Abraham loved Him. He also hanged all the blessings of Abraham on his ability to produce the evidence of his covenant with God by being faithful to God.
23. St. Paul also pointed his disciples to his own evidence with a warning that they should not trouble him again in search of evidence because he not only lived the life of his message as he was bold enough to say (Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ in 1 Cor. 11:1) but also bore the physical evidence of his calling in Christ
24. For neither is circumcision [now] of any importance, nor uncircumcision, but [only] a new creation [the result of a new birth and a new nature in Christ, the Messiah].
25. Peace and mercy be upon all who walk by this rule [who discipline themselves and regulate their lives by this principle], even upon the [true] Israel of God! From now on let no person trouble me [by making it necessary for me to vindicate my apostolic authority and the divine truth of my Gospel], for I bear on my body the [brand] marks of the Lord Jesus [the wounds, scars, and other outward evidence of persecutions–these testify to His ownership of me]! Gal.6:15-17 AMP.
26. If you do not possess the mark of Christ, you possess the mark of anti-Christ. If you are not Christ, you are anti-Christ. The life you live shows which spirit you have yielded yourself to.
27. JEHOVAH IS RIGHT, BUT I AND MY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN WRONG ALL ALONG (VOL 2) 18th January 2020 Chapter 2:4-14
28. If you are called anti-Christ, you will get angry. But look into your life and write your own testimony about yourself.
29. Every man; every woman; whether we believe it or not, we must write our individual history. Your life today will be a history tomorrow. True or false?
30. My life yesterday is history today. My life today will be history tomorrow. So you are writing your own history. What am I saying?
31. IT TAKES THE FOOLISH TO ALLOW HISTORY TO SPEAK AGAINST HIM. WHEN HISTORY TESTIFIES AGAINST A MAN, HE IS DOOMED TO ETERNITY. WHY MUST YOU ALLOW HSTORY TO TESTIFY AGAINST YOU?
32. The things which you have heard about and equally witnessed where it happened; you were warned seriously never to allow such things to befall you and you willfully beckoned on it to come to you, that you are there, will history not testify against that person?
33. That is why all that happened in time past, happened as example, and they were documented for our learning so that we will never permit such thing to befall us. [Romans 15:4, 1 Corinthians 10:11]
34. We will never go the way those people went, for which cause they incurred the wrath of God. If you are the hard-hearted Pharaoh, I will show you your position today.
35. 19These “against-Christ” people used to be members of our churches, BUT THEY NEVER REALLY BELONGED WITH US…
36. Have you heard it? Can somebody be here from the beginning of the Faith, yet he does not belong to us? Is it possible? So, you see why you do not depend on anybody.
37. Depend on Christ. Your husband may be the anti-Christ. Your wife may be the anti-Christ. Anybody may be the anti-Christ.
38. Somebody who has vowed a vow that he will never obey any instruction from God. No teaching will ever shake him. To him, the Word of God is a story. Always standing on the way of Truth. That is the very anti-Christ. And the Bible said, “Many of them have gone out” and they are among us. [1 John 4:1 – 3]
39. Some used to be with us, while some are still among us. Those who are against God and the Truth.
40. Is it written on any body’s face? By their fruits, ye shall know them. [Matthew 7:16] They can preach. They can teach. But live the life, zero. The life is zero.
41. By their physical manifestation, daily character you shall know who is who. Nothing can be truer than this truth. He that is not with me is against me.
42. So if we can go further, we can go back to the Old Testament. The matter was a serious matter that Gideon did not want to go to battle anyhow. Gideon wanted to be doubly sure that he was with God and God was with him.
43. He said, “God, if you are with me and you are the one leading me into this, where is the evidence”. He asked the question.
44. Is it not wisdom? If you want to know what God wants you to do, ask Him. He will gladly tell you because He delights in that.
45. When he told you in Matthew 7:7 seek and you shall find, ask and it shall be given to you, do you think he did not know what he was saying?
46. If you want to know what God wants you to do, ask him, and he will gladly tell you, for he is always ready to give a bountiful supply of wisdom to all who ask him; he will not resent it. James 1:5 LB Saint Paul knew this truth that is why he corroborated this fact in Luke 7:35
47. Yet wisdom is vindicated and shown to be right by all her children [by the lifestyle, moral character, and good deeds of her followers].” Luke 7:35 AMP.
48. God’s wisdom, however, is shown to be true by all who accept it.” Luke 7:35 GNB. And Christ is the wisdom and power of God
49. But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God 1 Cor. 1:23-24 AMP.
50. But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 1 Cor. 1:23-24 KJV
51. So, King Solomon knew why, when God asked him to request for only one thing; he thought of many things he wanted, but one thing that is needful.
52. Do you think it is easy? As you are here now and I ask you to make just one request? Don’t ever mention two words, that your request must be one word request.
53. Solomon never conferred with flesh and blood; he said “Wisdom to enable me govern your people rightly”. God said, “Because you didn’t ask for material wealth, material possession, power and all these things, for that reason I will give you wisdom above all your mates in your own day.
54. Besides, I will bestow riches upon you greater than any being in your own generation. Didn’t God fulfill it?
55. That is why Saint Paul said, if there are gifts, they will cease; if there are knowledge, they will cease. If there be prophecies they will cease, dreams, all these things, they will all cease but there is something that will not cease.
56. He said if you are requesting for anything, request for wisdom; and that wisdom has a fountain, a source. It has a fountain. So, if you are in Christ, if you have been with Him. What is the evidence?
57. How I wish you recorded all these things from my mouth to make it easy for transcription. However, with this now, I have challenged the pastor. I must not record everything.
58. The ones he recorded and the ones unrecorded which are in his brain and heart, I gave the assignment to him alone to go and develop this message. When we were in civil service, there was something we called verbatim reporting.
59. We were not using phone then. There was something called spiritual magnetic tape recorder; it is located in human heart. At the moment you pray under anointing and delve into the topic, even if it is inside lecture hall, sometimes you don’t go inside the lecture hall with your handset.
60. It is all you grab that you will use to form your note. That will determine whether you will pass or fail. If you are in the right mind and anointing flows in you, you will go higher than what you just heard.
61. Lay hand on the past, lay hand on the present, then summarize it with what we are manifesting, contrary to teachings we have received which are not traceable to Christ whom we are to pattern after for the conclusion is, “look unto Him for He is the author and the finisher of our faith.”
62. If you read it in different translations, Amplified in particular, you will see what it takes to look unto Him. It is not sitting down to watch me.
63. Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection].
64. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Romans 12:2 AMP.
65. It means pattern your life after him; let him be your example in all things.
66. When you are told to look unto Abraham, Abraham has now culminated into Christ in your day. Abraham was Moses in the days of Moses. And all were pointed to Moses to pattern after Moses; to look up to him.
67. If any looks away from Moses, he has already decreed himself a dead fellow. He has already excommunicated himself from the camp of God’s people till eternity. When the battle changed hand to Joshua, the same thing was transferred.
68. So it continued with the prophets hence the scripture says hearken unto the prophets and thou shall be established (2 Chronicles 20:20), but when you say no, you will never be established in the truth.
69. So it continued, and now, this is our own day. Listen to the apostles, listen to the prophets. This is your own day. If God has appeared in human form and we are sure and certain of this, I think we now have a sign post period!
70. My joy is that the messages we have been considering, one named him very well. Even the one I gave you in golden nuggets, it named him plainly, x-raying who he is and where he was born even how he was born.
71. If you don’t believe it, that is your business. If you want to refute it, he will trace and show you how those that came in time past were born. They were born as human beings and it did not subtract from what they were.
72. They were all born first as human beings. Moses was a human being; Abraham was a human being. Isaac, Jacob, Ishmael down the line were all human beings.
73. Maybe we are expecting one to be a spirit baby that will fall down from the moon. That is the one we shall believe. That is why if you are not a child of God, though one rises from the dead, you can never believe. You will still look for fault.
74. You will be looking for the reason why you will not believe because an unbeliever doubts himself.
…NOW, THAT THE LIFE YOU ARE LIVING NOW IS NOT BEING CONTROLLED BY YOUR HUMAN SENSES, RATHER, THE WORD OF GOD IS CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE. IF THE WORD OF GOD IS CONTROLLING MY LIFE, AND CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE, IT MEANS THAT WE WILL BE ONE. AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHERE CHRIST WANTS TO BRING THE CHURCH TO. THAT IS WHAT WE CALL PERFECTION..

SHOW THE EVIDENCE
If I call you an unbeliever now, you will doubt it querying, “Why calling me an unbeliever? Don’t I know God? Do you think I don’t know this message? I know the message”.
2. The bone of contention, is it all about knowing the message? All that claimed they knew the message and they were experts, a good number of them are no longer with us.
3. “There is nothing you can tell me about our message. Do you think I am not in the faith?” You are in the faith quite alright but in whose faith? Is it the faith of Christ? Ok, I have accepted that you are in the faith of Christ, where is the evidence? The evidence will either mark you in or out.
4. These are the few words we comfort one another with. As we see the day approaching, we comfort one another with these words. There is no other thing we have to do now.
5. Do not expect that anytime we gather here is for eating and drinking. There is no other thing we will eat; there is no other food given to the Son of Man to offer you if not this food that endureth till eternity; and it is left for you to strive to get it, the much you can for your life is tied to it.
6. If there is any other thing that is bringing you closer to the Son of Man if not to understudy Him so as to be like Him, you are wasting your energy coming here.
7. If you are coming here as a routine, every morning you rush to my house, what are you coming for? If you continue that way, a time will come when it will be like those that were going to Ezekiel in his own day.
8. He will become a noisy cymbal. Before your arrival, God will tell Ezekiel not to listen to them, they are hypocrites. After hearing from you, hear what they are saying. See what they are doing in the gallows, in their business places. Ezekiel saw all and kept quiet.
9. He told Ezekiel, “They will come. When they come, leave them, I the Lord will speak to them. I will put words into your mouth”. It is the Lord’s doing.
10. Any day you are here, whatever that proceeds out of my mouth is what God approved unto you for that day. Being the Almighty, He knows what is good for you at all times.
11. He knows all that you need. If you know what you have heard this morning, do not say it was what Daddy told his family only. That is why I told the pastor to go and develop it.
12. Note that it is morning altar. Develop it. No matter the volume, we will print it. It will help many others. It will equally help your families. They will see the grounds to query all of you.
13. They will say so this type of thing happens but when you come back you become lords and kings even when you are not having the attributes.
14. You are all impersonators; claiming what you do not have; assuming what you are not. No assumption on this matter. I cannot assume that I am a child of God; no assumption. It is just like assuming that you are a member of your family.
15. I am assuming that this man is my father. So you are not even sure that your father is the husband of your mother. You are not even sure.
16. Even if your mother was impregnated outside, as long as you were born in your father’s house and he took care of everything. He is your father. You don’t have another father. You are incontestable.
17. A boyfriend has no part in the child; what he gains is sweating in the bed. So, I assume is not there. Even if you married her with pregnancy, you are the owner of the child. When a vehicle is sold, it is sold together with everything inside it including cassette, spare tyre, everything.
18. Even a factory fitted vehicle, whatever that is not removed in that vehicle before you purchase it, becomes your own. Anyone you want to dispose of, you are free to do so because you are now the owner.
19. If you want to give it out for free or sell it out, you are free. We should be very careful let it not be that we are deceiving ourselves. Let all we hanged in our houses not be our condemnation.
20. When we are not in God; we are not with Him; we are not even emulating Him. Where is the evidence? If we are what we are claiming to be, God is looking for its evidence. Talking time is over; what is needed now is evidence. You said you are this and that, convince me. Where is the evidence?
21. If what I see is indices of a failed individual, a failed family, a failed marriage, failed children, a failed business, a building that is about to collapse, a failed ministry, if these are the signs I see and you are claiming otherwise, I will simply ignore you because the whole manifestations have become the interpretation.
22. The manifestation is the interpretation. Don’t preach me a sermon, live me a sermon. Bro Stephen, you are very sober this morning. It is like you understood where we took off from. We have crossed the stage somebody will come and say, “Sir, tell me what to do”. You have known what God wants from you. If you don’t do it, it is because you don’t want to do it.
23. OH CHILD OF GOD, KNOW THYSELF VOLUME 2 PREACHED ON SUNDAY, 26TH JULY 2020 pg 53:29-48 Imagine somebody God has called to help Him, “Come and help Me”, and now you have turned around to be a burden to God. You see why God will punish us severely. People that have been fighting with Him, now when the battle is about to be decided, they all slumbered.
24. SOM: Some slumbered. Some now turned out to be fighting Him. Some turned back. You can never draw back without fighting Moses.
25. When the elders drew back, they started fighting Moses. When Barnabas drew back, John Mark drew back and Demas drew back, they started fighting Paul. Is it not true?
26. When Judas drew back, he betrayed the Master, for he started fighting the Master, and then made himself a friend of the Master’s enemies. When the wife of Job drew back and joined the enemies of Job, she started fighting Job. Is it not true?
27. SO IT IS IN EVERY GENERATION. WHOEVER THAT DRAWS BACK FROM THE TRUTH MUST FIGHT THE TRUTH. THE FELLOW MUST BECOME AN ENEMY OF THE SAME TRUTH HE PROPAGATED. FIGHTING THE TRUTH DOES NOT MEAN PHYSICAL FIGHT.
28. ONCE YOUR LIFE IS CONTRARY TO THAT TRUTH WHICH YOU ARE PROFESSING, YOU ARE FIGHTING THE TRUTH. YOU ARE FIGHTING THE TRUTH.
29. The reason why people make shipwreck of their calling is that they do not know that their lives are influencing somebody near them.
30. You should know that your life is influencing somebody, somebody is watching you as an Elder, and not an ordinary man in the Church, that whatever you do, a younger person by your side may be carried away, thinking that that is the way the thing should be done, not knowing that you are an erring minister.
31. You see why you should be careful the way you live? Have you seen why that your life, your character is the greatest testimony in the sight of God? You might be the most respected Minister. Yet, you are a backslider in the heart.
32. Peter was well respected, but he was a backslider. Immediately the Master went away, he took them back to those things the Master stopped them from doing. He took them back to those things that were against their Faith.
33. SOM: He used his elderly position to deceive all of them. You see why you should be careful. People might see us as people that are walking with Christ and close to THE SON OF MAN.
34. Yet, you are manifesting something that is against the teaching of Christ. You do not know that it is influencing somebody that is watching you. It is influencing somebody that is close to you.
35. SOM: Our life influences people, either to do right or to do wrong. Is it not true? When Peter misbehaved in Pontus Galatia, all that were around him were influenced.
36. They joined him in the hypocrisy. St. Paul saw him and rebuked him. Is it not true? Is it not scriptural? 11But when Cephas (Peter) came to Antioch, I protested and opposed him to his face [concerning his conduct there], for he was blameable and stood condemned.
37. 12For up to the time that certain persons came from James, he ate his meals with the Gentile [converts]; but when the men [from Jerusalem] arrived, he withdrew and held himself aloof from the Gentiles and [ate] separately for fear of those of the circumcision [party].
38. 13And the rest of the Jews along with him also concealed their true convictions and acted insincerely, with the result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy (their example of insincerity and pretense). [Galatians 2:11 – 13 AMP] Why we are telling you to live right in accordance to the truth you have received.
39. 2 Timothy 3:15-16“You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ.
40. There can never be salvation without Christ and once you possess Christ, it must be evidenced in your life through wisdom. That is why the book of James 1:5 says you should ask Him for wisdom if you lack wisdom because you cannot say you belong to Christ who is the wisdom and power of God without possessing those qualities.
41. It is God’s wisdom that helps us to discern every situation and eschew evil. By this, God knows those that are with Him and those that are not.
42. Do not Lower Your Hands 26/7/2020 Pg 36:2-5,10-12 The Lord knows all who are with Him, and those who are against Him, no matter where they are located. WHOEVER THAT IS NOT WITH GOD IS AGAINST GOD.
43. WHOEVER THAT IS NOT GATHERING IS SCATTERING. WHOEVER THAT IS NOT HELPING IN BUILDING UP IS HELPING IN PULLING DOWN. AM I MAKING SENSE AT ALL?
44. You have to make your choice of the path you want to go. Whether you be among those that will be on the Lord’s side or on the opposing side. FOR YOU TO LEARN THE HABIT OR THE CHARACTER OF ANY PERSON, NUMBER ONE IS THAT YOU MUST BE PERSONALLY AND PRACTICALLY ACQUAINTED WITH THAT PERSON.
45. You must be practically and personally acquainted. You must work close. You do not distant yourself from him. AND THE MOMENT YOU HATE YOUR MASTER, THAT IS THE END OF LEARNING THE JOB.
46. THE MOMENT THE MASTER HAS DISCOVERED THAT YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WANTS TO HAVE YOUR WAY, AND THAT YOU HAVE COME TO TEACH YOUR MASTER, HE WILL TEACH ALL OTHERS, BUT YOU. HE WILL NEVER TEACH YOU, FOR YOU HAVE UNTEACHABLE SPIRIT.
47. How do we know those that have unteacheable spirit? The scriptures say they keep on waiting to be taught when they ought to be masters, teachers.
48. They pretend they did not understand what you are saying, when they have already sealed it up in their minds that you are wasting your time; that they can never move an inch with you.
49. Some of them pretend to have known everything, hence they have no need of being taught. Watch them to put those things they claim they have known into practice, in every work, reprobate.
50. They do the works of their father, the devil who claimed he knew the scripture, quoting them in order to influence the righteous man away. They know our message very well but they can never abide in the truth therein.
51. No one moves about with a visible inscription “child of God” on his/her forehead or any part of the body. Gone are the days when we identified God-fearing people by carrying the holy Bible or sermon books about.
52. What does the introduction is your disposition, which is the manifestation of your belief. That is why the Son of Man advised us in form of a message to give ourselves a place while we are still alive because people of the same belief, same character, same nature must be lumped together in one place.
53. He also enjoined us to give ourselves a name. He further asked us a question saying, “What do you want God to call you?”
54. What do you want God to Call You Vol.2 6TH October 2019 Chapter 4:1-5 Your name is your character. My name is my character. If my character is the character of Nebuchadnezzar, my name is Nebuchadnezzar.
55. If My character is a resemblance of Ahab, automatically, though I bear “His Holiness, holy reverend”, my name in the sight of God is Ahab. What is your name before God? Or do you not know yourself.
56. What is your name before us? Before the Almighty God, what is your name? Give yourself a name. What do you want God to call you? What do you want us to call you?
57. What do you want God to call you? What do you want the Brethren to call you? A good man before the Brethren, a good Sister, but evil in the sight of God? Having good commendations among the heathens, but being the worst in the sight of God.
58. What do you want us to call you, as Brethren? And what do you want God to call you? What Brethren see you to be and what they call you, does it harmonize, is it in agreement with what God says you are.
59. What do you want God to Call You Vol.2 6TH October 2019 Chapter 6:1-10 You must know the basis of translation. You must know why this Message has now gone home.
60. WHAT DO YOU WANT GOD TO CALL YOU? What is your name before God? Or, do you not know yourself? What is your name before us? Before the Almighty God, what is your name? Give yourself a name.
61. What do you want God to call you? What do you want us to call you, “his holiness” or “his majesty?” Your character is your name. My character is my name.
62. Looking at our faces, nobody will like to be called a criminal, but once you are involved in criminal activities, your name is “a criminal.” Nobody will like to be called a liar.
63. Nobody wants to be called an unfaithful fellow; but the moment unfaithfulness is manifested in your character, lying becomes your habit; you have automatically given yourself a name.
64. Though you may bear “his holiness,” “most holy reverend,” “his righteousness” and things like that, yet your name is bare (naked) before God. Before us, you have a name.
65. Before the Almighty God, you have a name. On that great day, when the Almighty God will round off the programme of mankind, He will not say, “Brother Amankem, come this way; Brother Thomas, come this way.” Rather, you will hear, “All liars, come this way. All evil doers, this way. All good people of God, this way.”
66. And there is no mistake in passing judgment. For you judge yourselves here. Or, do you mean to tell Me that you do not know what you are doing?
67. ….I am saying that your character must be in harmony, in agreement with the profession of your faith. For your character tells everybody what you believe. Whatever you believe determines the way you behave.
68. What do you want God to Call You Vol.2 6TH October 2019 Chapter 6:25-36 God is not mindful of the number of people in the Church, congregation, and in the Fellowship. He is mindful of their nature. You can be one million people here without God’s nature. God is interested in one, two, or three persons that gather in His Name, having His nature.
ANYBODY THAT IS NOT FAITHFUL WILL NOT BE A PARTAKER OF HIS PROMISES. WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE FAITHFUL AND WHAT IS FAITHFULNESS? TO BE FAITHFUL IS TO BE DEPENDABLE. TO BE FAITHFUL IS TO BE RELIABLE AND TRUSTWORTHY. IF YOU ARE NOT RELIABLE, YOU ARE NOT DEPENDABLE. NOBODY CAN EVEN HAVE CONFIDENCE IN YOU. YOU HAVE NO INTEGRITY TO PROTECT. NOBODY CAN CONFIDE IN YOU ON ANY MATTER AT ALL. IT GOES TO SHOW THAT YOU ARE NOT FAITHFUL.

FELLOWSHIP IS A HUMAN BEING
FELLOWSHIP IS A HUMAN BEING: Pay attention! As many as went to Mbaise with Me, the last family altar I conducted opened the eyes of everybody there; that one man in the hand of God is greater than one trillion people in the world, using Samson as a great fellow in the Hand of God.
2. ….Antipas recognized—because he had the nature of God—that Fellowship is a man. Fellowship is a human being. Do you have that revelation?
3. Church is a human being. So, you are that great temple for you are that great temple God dwells in, not the synagogue or building
4. ….DO YOU HAVE THE NATURE (CHARACTER) OF GOD IN YOU? I really thank God for what is happening everywhere. God is not interested in the number of people in the congregation, but He is interested in the nature of the people that make up that congregation;… which is your ticket to Paradise.
5. So it is in your own nuclear family and in my own nuclear family. Church in your family. Church in My family. The number of children I have does not make any meaning but the nature of my children is the most important thing.
6. If you have 20 children with beast’s nature, one child with God’s nature is mightier than they. ONE PERSON WITH THE NATURE OF GOD IS GREATER THAN ONE MILLION PEOPLE WITHOUT THE NATURE OF GOD.
7. A child of God is one that has the nature of God. We can easily identify anything we see by naming it after its kind. If a snake fails to possess the qualities of a snake, it can never be called a snake.
8. Calling yourself a child of God without possessing the qualities of Christ marks such a fellow out as an impersonator. Every child of God is the image making of Christ.
9. As an ambassador of Christ, whatever we manifest before the general public is the interpretation of our belief. When we look unto Christ, we must be like Christ.
10. Do not Lower Your Hands 26/7/2020 Pg 41:18-36 The Scriptures said that we should look unto Christ who is the Author and Finisher of our faith. Is it not true?
11. 2Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. [Hebrews 12:2 KJV]
12. He said, “Let Christ be our example.” He is our Instructor, our Guide, our Counselor and everything. Who is instructing us in this way of life? Who is instructing us in this pathway of truth? Who leads us to Paradise? Is it not Christ?
13. And the Scriptures said in the book of 1 John chapter 2 thus, “If you are a seed of God, and you want to tell God you are a child of God, you must comport yourself, work and do everything as Christ does His own.” Is it not the Scripture?
14. How can you do it if you begin to find fault with Christ? When you begin to think you are holier than Christ, can you learn from Him again?
15. Even the Words He speaks cannot have any effect in your life because you are holier than the Holy God. You know better than Him and that is where you stop.
16. The next thing is that you will be dismissed completely, lest you begin to corrupt others. This is because a corrupt fellow is a canker.
17. A CORRUPT FELLOW IS A DISEASE THAT IS INFECTIOUS. ONCE THE HEART IS CORRUPT, THE CHARACTER IS ALSO CORRUPT.
18. That is why in every family, do not harbour any corrupt person. Somebody who will hear the Word of God and live contrary, is he not a corrupt person? His life is another doctrine altogether.
19. OUR CHARACTERS ARE REFLECTIONS OF THE MESSAGES WE ARE RECEIVING. SO, YOUR CHARACTERS SHOULD BE THE REFLECTIONS OF THE TEACHINGS YOU HAVE RECEIVED.
20. Then, when you are receiving the teaching and manifesting something contrary, you are now laying a doctrine for others to copy.
21. You are teaching them something, for character teaches more than any other thing. Then, what you are teaching them is false doctrine. Then, you are the temple God will destroy.
22. For the Bible said, “If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are”. [1 Corinthians 3:17 KJV]
23. IN MANY WAYS, WE CORRUPT THE TEMPLE OF GOD, FOR YOU ARE THE TEMPLE OF GOD. YOUR WHOLE BODY; YOUR WHOLE LIFE IS A REPRESENTATION OF GOD’S DWELLING PLACE.
24. IF CHRIST IS NOT DWELLING IN YOU, OH! TRULY SPEAKING, THE DEVIL IS DWELLING IN YOU. YOU HAVE NO HOPE OF RESURRECTION UNTO ETERNAL LIFE.
25. It is Christ in you, the hope of Glory. The hope of resurrection unto eternal life. So, where is your evidence that this hope is in you?
26. THE REVELATION OF THE SON OF MAN 7/7/2019 Chapter 2:24-35 CONFIRMATION OF THE SON OF MAN BY THE ANCIENT BOOK OF ENOCH Pg. 10 vs. 22 – 25. It is not fairy tale. There is God. He exist. Then in what form does He exist? He exists in human form. Then you do not have any other reason to say that God does not exist. There is God.
27. And be it known to you that the reason why whatever He gave them in the days of Moses never profited them anything is because they heard it but they did not receive it by faith.
28. It all ended on their lips. It all ended in their brains. There was never a time they received it with their hearts, nor put it into practice because it was the Word of God.
29. The same thing is happening in our own day. Man has not changed. We are still the same human beings, believing God with the lips, with our mouths, but with the hearts, we find it difficult to put it into practice. Very very difficult.
30. We are like that seed that found itself on the shallow ground. Today, we rejoice and jubilate because God has opened our eyes of understanding. Tomorrow, we begin to waver, losing our conviction. Why? Because we were never convinced from the beginning.
31. CONFIRMATION OF THE SON OF MAN BY THE ANCIENT BOOK OF ENOCH Pg. 18 vs. 16 – 18. What type of faith is He talking about? Look at the Faith. This Faith of Enoch. Faith for rapture. Faith for Translation. Faith that overcometh the world. Faith that resists every kind of evil. It is by faith that we are declared righteous in the sight of God.
32. So, if you say you are among the Elect, and you do not bear the fruit meet for this righteousness, you are deceiving yourself.
33. You cannot claim it. No! You must manifest it. I must manifest it. Show your evidence that you have received this glorious faith.
34. CONFIRMATION OF THE SON OF MAN BY THE ANCIENT BOOK OF ENOCH Pg. 16 vs. 7 – 10. So, if you are among this Elect group, be happy at all times. But how do you know that you are in the number? You will always find all your actions, all your character and everything you are doing dovetailing to the Scriptures. You will be bearing the fruits; proper fruit thereof.
35. All your actions, whether you know where it is written in the Bible or not, anytime God speaks on that matter, you will find out that your character, your word, your decisions will be in line with what God has spoken aforetime. Then you know that you are the Elect.
36. For God came to confirm the Truth. The Truth that is in us. For if that Truth was in you, you were rebelling against yourself wherever you were. Until this Gospel came to you, then you settled. Why? Because you have that seed in you.
37. The Elect obeys the will of God intuitively without being taught because it is his nature. Every Elect has the nature of Christ because the first Elect is Christ.
38. Every true seed of God must progressively examine himself to be sure that this nature of Christ has become his nature. That is when true worship bonding with God; starts and never ends. This is the most important thing, not neglecting other things.
ALL THAT MUST BE PARTAKERS OF THIS ETERNAL LIFE, MUST BE MADE ACCEPTABLE IN THE BELOVED WHOSE SIGNATURE IS FINAL, FOR HIM ALONE HAS THE FATHER SENT AND ALSO SEALED. NOT TWO SIGNATURES, ONLY ONE SIGNATURE. ONCE HE APPROVES OF YOUR FAITH THAT SETTLES IT.

THE WEIGHTIER MATTER
Now there is nothing bad in paying your vows, if you made any vow to God go and pay it hastily, that is what God wrote. It is in the scripture, it is also in the holy koran.
2. Deuteronomy 23:21-23 LB “When you make a vow to the Lord, be prompt in doing whatever it is you promised him, for the Lord demands that you promptly fulfill your vows; it is a sin if you don’t.
3. (But it is not a sin if you refrain from vowing!)Once you make the vow, you must be careful to do as you have said, for it was your own choice, and you have vowed to the Lord your God.
4. Numbers 30:2 AMPC If a man vows a vow to the Lord or swears an oath to bind himself by a pledge, he shall not break and profane his word; he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.
5. Holy Koran even magnified it. There is a place in the holy koran where it said “many people will come to Allah when they are in distress, when they are troubled; when they are facing hard times, they will say to Allah “if you will come our way, if you will make our conditions better, we shall do this; we shall do that.
6. But when Allah will answer their prayers and come their ways, they will run away from Allah; they will not fulfill their vows. Such are the people that are destined to hell.
7. For Allah is not a kid, Allah is not a kid that you can kid him” it is written in many translations. If you bring another one it says “Allah is not a child” another one says “Allah is not unreasonable” that is the one that explained it the more.
8. “You may say that I didn’t mean it but Allah meant it, when he was blessing you”. You see it? You didn’t mean it when you were making promises to God, but God meant it when he was blessing you, when he was answering your prayers.
9. Have you seen where the problem lies? If you go to the bible it is the same thing, you have seen it there. So what am I saying, after all these things, Christ came and explained the whole thing very well.
10. There are some people whose righteousness will end in “I paid my vows” their own evidence will end in “I paid my vows, I give my offerings both on Sundays and Fridays, I don’t owe at all. I help the needy, help brethren, I do this, I do that”.
11. God said they are all good, they are proper, they are dandy but you neglected the weightier matter. All these things you are doing should have been the fruit of obedience to the truth, obedience to the word of God first.
12. There is nothing else. But if you are doing all this things, and your heart is still far from God, you are just having church righteousness; you are still in church righteousness and nowhere else.
13. This you could have done first not neglecting the other. So if you go to the message titled “three kinds of righteousness” you see it a lot there, self-righteousness, church righteousness and God’s righteousness which is revelation.
14. The righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith. Now this is the faith of the son of man because we are now in the generation of the son of man, the age of the son of man.
15. What is the revealed righteousness? After abolishing tithe what next? After abolishing the laws of Moses what did he do? If you get the message it says “he has transferred all of you from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of his dear son.
16. Nullified and liberated you from the laws of Moses and now espoused you to his own laws which are not cumbersome but are all rules of life, rules for ideal living.
17. That is why all the rules the Son of man has given so far, check all of them they are natural laws; they are all natural, they are not political law they are all natural.
18. If you watch his messages, he is known by his characteristics and attributes, he delights in using nature to talk to people. Using nature as an example than any other thing; he magnifies nature more than any other thing for whatever that is contrary to nature is against God.
19. Who is this? Who has ever been using this? – the person that told you that every bush is fire, every rock is a fountain of water and every cloud is one that leads to God.
20. We become wiser as things happen on daily basis. If God is with you, you have seen the evidence but if you are with God, where is the evidence? I can have the evidence that I have met Christ.
21. If you do not have a convincing evidence, unquestionable confirmation demonstrated before your eyes and infallible evidences, you won’t be following.
22. You have convincing signs, you have unquestionable evidences, you have infallible demonstrations, proofs all of them combine to build up your faith in him, is it not true?
23. Then why can’t you reflect that faith? Why can’t you allow what you said you have seen and believed to influence your character? Why do you believe in something and reflect another?
24. How do I know those that believe and those that do not believe; those that are following and those that are not following? Is it not manifestation? Is it not reflection? That marks you in or out.
25. So as we have come to the end, we are only waiting for one thing which will fulfill itself in a second and he didn’t tell anyone the date or the hour. It is the greatest secret in him.
26. Any time the thing he expect clocks, he will draw the line immediately and bring it to an end. Making noise or weeping cannot reverse the whole thing, eternity has unfolded.
27. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth on that great morning when you will see yourselves joined with the unbelievers.
28. You will be asking yourself, “so I have been wasting my time all these years deceiving myself”, not God deceiving you. The unbeliever is the one who is deceiving himself by claiming to believe when he does not believe anything.
29. William Braham said “anything that you believe and you cannot live by it, he said deceive yourself not you do not believe. You can never query what you believe.
30. What you believe has become the article of your faith. Has it become the part of your life and you begin to query it. Don’t you see that that person is deceiving himself? Are you hearing me? Many have believed this faith to be truth for the effective running of their families, not to put them in right standing with God.
31. They believed that using it will help them put their families in order but not to bring themselves to orders and that is why troubles are coming.
32. For that which you said you believed and you do not manifest it, you will not know when you are manifesting that unbelief before those people who are fixing their eyes on you.
33. Then you become a stumbling block by encouraging something God had already condemned by approving it for your family or by feigning ignorance when you know the right thing. That is why the moment you bring your family to the level where they know the pros and cons of the faith, your own life is involved because it will help you; it will help you.
34. But when you have not succeeded in doing it, well, your own life is in danger, very much in danger. I have looked into the family and to know from the scripture where God saved family and destroyed the man.
35. God destroyed Ahab’s family but Ahab was not destroyed. The only place I saw God destroyed the man and his family were Eli’s family, Saul’s family, Eckan’s family.
36. God destroyed Aaron did he destroy the family? True or false? What caused it? It is always good for you to understand where we are heading to. When God tells you to believe in God that you will be saved you and your family, it implies that, that which you believe you should strive and make your family to believe in that as well.
37. Is it not true? But when you disbelieve God, you and your family will be damned. You have used your hand to destroy your family; you have raised a wasted generation as well as suffered in vain.
38. Is like someone who built a house and die without packing into it, bought a car, dedicated it and die without driving it. All he suffered in building the house and buying the car is now in vain. Others are now enjoying his labour. God forbid it that after labouring another person will eat the fruit of my labour.
39. God will never allow that. So if we can address this truth, truly speaking tomorrow may be better for our families and those who are depending on us because they feel we are closer to the son of man than others.
40. See the joy of the testimony we are sharing here, Bishop Elijah is rejoicing begging brethren that they should thank me and my family.
41. That who is he, that the first daughter of the son of man found it worthy to take one of her daughters, that one of her daughters has entered into the son of man’s family.
42. Look at what he wrote; he knows that my first daughter taking her daughter to live with her is like Son of Man taking one of her daughters. He wrote here that he will do everything within his power to make sure that he will not fail; that he first of all spoke to her before sending her that he will be helping to make sure that she will not fail.
43. That it is a wonderful privilege, a big honour to him that of all people that it is him, Bishop Elijah, that the daughter of the Son of man took her daughter to stay with her.
44. See revelation! But those that are here, do they see it that way? What of your own children? Do you raise them up in a good way having in mind peradventure that the son of man may pick interest in any of them. Do you actually have it in your minds at all? Let me raise my children in such a way that God will show interest in them; that God will show interest in their affairs.
45. Does it come to your minds at all? The Son of Man showing interest in them may not be Him direct; it may be any of my sons or my daughters.
46. Since you know that the God am worshipping is the same God that all of them have given themselves to. He is now God of Son of Man, God of Wisdom, God of Chukwudi, God of Chibuikem and God of His in-laws and daughters even grandchildren.
47. That is why you should be having that revelation; I mean that someone will be better tomorrow. You don’t go to church, show me the evidence.
48. “Daddy today’s message was wonderful” Is that an evidence? “Daddy I have listened to it twenty times”, is that an evidence? After listening to it, what next? You don’t know that the Apostles saw Him, they came claiming they have believed, they have believed, that they are among.
49. Peter told them ‘if you have believed in what we are teaching, bear fruits meant of repentance’. Bear fruit showing you are with us not that you changed church.
50. Don’t come to tell me that you were there when Peter made the deaf hear, the dead rose. Daddy what happened today was wonderful oo, what was wonderful? Since it could not change your lifestyle, it is only wonderful in your mouth.
51. Conversion starts from the heart, is your heart converted? Have you been put right with Christ within; so that the outwards will be right?
52. When the heart is converted and stands in right standing with Christ, what will now make other places not to stand right? Is it not the steering that directs the tyre where to go? It is where the steering goes to that the tyre is directed to.
53. When the steering is out, nobody is driving it, wherever you see yourself you take. When the brake fails but the steering did not fail, you can jam a tree or fall into a water body.
54. The heart is the steering, the heart is the steering. The body, the entire human body is the vehicle. If you tune the heart to the right, it goes to the right.
55. You tune it to the left, it goes to the left. Tune your heart right, it goes to the right. But if you are trying to tune or finding it difficult to fine tune it, then leave it like that, stop struggling; take it that that is the way you were ordained.
56. That is the way you are ordained. Whatever that is propelling my life now has come to stay. The same way whatever that is propelling your life should have come to stay that is; if you told yourself the truth from the very beginning.
57. That is why I tell you people, if I had impersonated anything in this faith by now my foolishness would have been made manifest. There is not a time God will come and start confirming a lie, God coming to stand in for a lie, after standing in for a lie, He still goes to the revealed word, He still goes to the ancient manuscripts nobody has ever discovered, has ever manifested; bringing them out. Ah ah, why not reason? If you have been with Christ show me the evidence.
58. The world is waiting for you. The world is looking for when the sons and daughters of God shall be made manifest. Christ walking here on earth on two feet.
59. William Branham said it, the Son of Man confirmed it; that the essence of the preaching of the gospel of Christ is to reproduce Christ here on earth in human form. Christ will begat Christ.
60. It behoveth the first born to begat others, many brethren. He is the first born among many brethren. Today don’t we have many brethren? Don’t we have first born? So where we are now is the cheapest, the easiest because I am following an example now I am seeing with my eyes.
61. Not imaginary, now I didn’t say think, no. I can describe Him. To avoid making mistakes the Lord Himself, Almighty met with the prophets of old who showed them everything about the individual so they would not make mistakes.
62. Teachings are there already; look at the personality, whenever He will appear, look at how He will look like. He will be a human being, see the village we are expecting Him to come from, look at His stature, look at everything about Him, look at His delight.
63. It’s just like the day I was outside, I managed to eat garden egg upon I joined you all in taking slimming tea, tummy reducing tea. I drink all.
64. I saw myself at the glass window and saw how big my stomach is. I called Bro. Eli and asked him whether it was the glass that was magnifying me or that was how big my tummy was. He said the thing shocked him, that it happens to him too.
65. Do you know what I said within me? “Of what use is checking my belle when I am born to it”. I am born to it. It is one of the signs the elect must watch out for- His weight, His stature, His face, His humane character, His simplicity and His big belle then His doctrines.
66. His teachings will be a unifying point to help people from all races, all tribes, all religions to have one focal point and that is Christ. If you know where else it is, you people should say. This one is that it has been fulfilled before they started looking out for it.
67. It is not when we read we manufacture. If we have the ancient manuscript here, we look into it. We discover that whatever we see inside it now, we must have fulfilled it. We have all fulfilled it and even more.
68. Bro. Chizoba do that thing I asked you to do for me. Number one you will do for me is to get this message that went forth here this morning, once you start postponing saying you will do this and that, you won’t meet up.
69. To be on a safer side, wherever you want to go to, you first of all build the background. Once you build the background, even if you give it one week, you will finish it.
70. But once you miss that background, how you started and everything you are doing is tautology- off point. If you have been with Christ, what is the evidence? It is not if Christ is with you, No we have seen evidence that Christ is with us.
71. What we are now looking for is evidence that we are with Christ. I mean we have been with Him, yes you can be with Him. Hear me very well, you can be with Christ without being with Him, without being personally and practically acquainted with him depending on your motive.
72. The prophet said that whatever you are expecting from God is what He will give you. You cannot ask God for soap and He gives you yam, No.
73. If you know that thing he asked you to plead for, He gave you a blank cheque. Have you not asked anything in my name, from now henceforth ask and it shall be given to you that your joy might be complete. So, if you know that thing He will give you and your joy will be complete, go and you beg for it, He never told you what that thing is.
74. He said be careful at nothing for through prayers and supplications let your needs be made known to God. He doesn’t want to tell you but He knows what you need at all times and gave you a blank cheque.
75. He said ‘ask whatever you will and it shall be done to you’ If you know that your need, go and beg God, but know that God does not listen to many petitions, He listens to a petition.
76. Remember He added a clause to it “if we ask according to His will He heareth us”, if we ask according to His will. If we ask outside His will, He will not answer.
77. On this note, I say remain blessed in Him eternally.
