PREACHED BY APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN THE ANCIENT OF DAYS THE HIDDEN REVEALER ON SUNDAY 16TH JUNE, 2019 @ THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD, ONITSHA
“This is our own day. Do we have a Messenger from God to reveal the mind of God to us? Do we have someone we call Rabbi (Great Teacher), who has espoused us to the Word of God in our day? Do we
have any infallible supernatural sign or evidence which no flesh can impersonate surrounding His Ministry? Did He come with a Scriptural commission like others that appeared before Him? From His Scriptural Commission, if any, what office is He occupying? From the office He occupies, who is He?” Who is this Man, Apostle Peter Odoemena? “Disbelieving the Messenger of your day due to over-familiarity or ignorance of the Holy Scriptures marks the beginning of your eternal destruction….” Sure! – THE SON OF MAN
HOLDING UNTO THE CERTAINTY OF THE FAITH: FOR THERE UNTO I AM BORN VOL 2; Preached on Sunday 9th April 2017; Pg. 123 vs. 10 – 14

IN THE MIDST OF THE BRIDE IS A TEACHING PRIEST
1. The seven men you can go back to your seats. Thank you for your wonderful performance. I appreciate. But how I wish you will be with Me like this in My Father’s Paradise.
2. Behold THE SON OF MAN whose position is in the right hand side of the Father. Behold Him for He has come to the earth in human form to save the children of God, and those who are eagerly and patiently waiting for Him. He has marched into His Holy Sanctuary. There is no going away again.
3. I KNOW YOU ARE HAPPY. AND I AM EQUALLY HAPPY. BUT LET NOT YOUR REJOICING; BE THAT OF THE HEATHENS.
4. BE SURE YOU ARE FOUND HIDING IN THE SON OF MAN, WHO IS BORN TO RIGHTEOUSNESS. NO INIQUITY IS FOUND IN HIM.
5. Before any other thing, I want to refresh your memories with what you have in your homes. I want somebody to go to the left hand side of My table, depending on where you are taking your position. Take away the GREAT SERMON, you will see a sermon book there, BEHOLD OUR GOD COMETH.
6. Remember what I told you. This Message was preached in 1997. And there is another Message inside it that was preached in 1996. Read the Message at the back. Open page 60 and I will show you where you will start because of time, for I have a lot to do here.
7. Thank you for answering My call. I sent a horrifying message across the globe. And I gave orders that no Pastor, no Overseer, no General Superintendent, no lord [self-acclaimed lord over God’s Heritage] should hinder anybody who is volunteering to be here today from coming.
8. Young and old, great and small, lame, blind; as long as the person wanted to be here, hinder them not. To those that came from afar, I made a provision.
9. Is Pastor Mike of Nassarawa here? He should blame himself. I know why I permitted him, for He has been requesting over time. I thank God Izuchukwu is here representing Lagos Household. Peradventure the vehicle I saw came from Port Harcourt; nobody is begging them to hurry up. They will hook up with what happened here whenever they play the tape. But talk of seeing the action, they have missed it.
10. We made an arrangement for a videographer, but because of his stubbornness, we stopped him from coming. We are not advertising anything. We are not showcasing anything. But rather, I wanted to have it in My home for a memorial, for there may not be a Meeting like this again.
11. You remember when I told you that I will never sit down to eat the LORD’s Supper with you anymore, until you hear, “BLESSED IS HE THAT COMETH IN THE NAME OF THE LORD” and that will be in the Paradise. Since that day, have you had it again?
12. Even if you are to have it now, can you afford the cost? Even if you spend ₦10,000,000 you cannot have it. You cannot have it. And you cannot observe it because there is no way you can start before the time. It has appointed time. It has a time it cannot cross.
13. Even if I use 10,000 service men and women, they cannot accomplish it. God knows what He is doing.
14. It is just like the Muslim festival. It has time. That is why the injunction by Prophet Mohammad (Peace be to his holy name) is that the ram must be killed by 9 o’clock in the morning. Let the whole Muslim community gather, do everything and make sure it is finished by 10 o’clock in the morning. If it does not finish, bury the remnant in the ground. Amen.
15. In the time of the Passover in Egypt, the instruction was that whoever that could not afford it should join his neighbour and it should last only but one hour. Whatever remains, bury it in the ground.
16. But in My own case, it is not so. Somebody held her own because of unbelief because she was choked and could not throw it away. She held it in her hand till the following day.
17. When she was dying, she made her confessions known to the Elders. Their Pastor summoned Me and we cornered her somewhere. We saw the thing. The one in her throat choked her, for she ate the LORD’s Supper in unrighteousness.
18. She made her confession known to everybody. I anointed her and the one in the throat went down after 24 hours. The one she was holding in the hand, THE SON OF MAN said, “Nobody should throw it away and you cannot take it home. Thank your stars you are still here. Give it to Me.”
19. Before many witnesses, a Brother poured Olive oil in My hand. I lifted the thing up and it started smoking. I handed it over to her. She ate it and swallowed it. Brethren am I bearing false witness? [The Ancient men and women in Fellowship all echoed, “No sir!”]
20. It is a Living Manna. That is My flesh. You cannot throw it away. You cannot violate it anyhow. I remain the only Living Priest, High Priest that restored the ancient Passover feast, and the Almighty God approved it. I officiated in it and God came down. The Glory covered the table.
21. That is not all. I used the same old ancient materials, sourced the true vine, and then used the true vine to officiate it. I kept to all the rules and regulations governing the LORD’s Supper and allowed two angels to man the table. Anybody who was not courageous could not look at that table.
22. Please before ever I begin to tell you why I called you, I just want to put you in remembrance of the things you have been hearing from My mouth, with a good number of them documented for posterity.
23. They were documented and preserved in prints so that you can deny yourself but you cannot deny God. I said you can deny yourself, but you cannot deny God, for God has sufficient evidence against all mankind.
24. And God never tells lies against anybody, for He knows what everybody is doing, whether good or bad. He knows all we have conceived, even in our hearts which we are yet to practice. That is why He is the Righteous Judge.
25. BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH. Praise God. Maybe because we read it in the night. Pastor Chizoba, it is now corrected. We were saying, OUR GOD. Now it is YOUR GOD. That is for as many as were waiting for their God.
26. SPECIAL NUMBER: [Behold THE SON OF MAN, whose position is in the Right hand of the Father. Behold, He has arrived here on earth to save those who are waiting for Him]
You may meet Him on the way without knowing Him. You may eat and drink with Him, transact business with Him. Yet, you do not know Him. They will point you to His residence, “This is where the Man is living” and you will say it is a lie. The highest you can call Him is a bad man or a good man. Finish! You will not know Him beyond that: either a bad man or a good man. You will be told that He is more than good; He is more than bad. Look at what He is: GOOD AND BAD ARE IN HIM. LIFE AND DEATH ARE IN HIM ALSO. FAILURE AND SUCCEESS ARE IN HIM TOO. WHAT IS MORE? NIGHT AND DAY ARE IN HIM. HE IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE.
I AM THE LADDER TO HEAVEN; Preached on Sunday 9th June 2013 Pg. 57 vs. 8 – 9

THE SON OF MAN IS NOT TWO
1. BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH, Preached on the 8th of June, 1997. This is My foundation. Remember I told you to come for I have a global Message. Global in the sense that it is going to be universal. Whether you are white or black, I do not care about your religious inclination. As long as you have flesh and blood, you are involved.
2. So, My Meeting today cuts across all barriers. And that is why you are not here for anybody. You are here for yourself. This is the only way you can benefit. IF YOU ARE NOT HERE FOR YOURSELF AND YOURSELF ALONE, I PITY YOU.
3. If you know you were in this Faith by that time quoted, show by raising your hand. Man or woman. I said raise your hand. You can see the fingers. Ok! Hands down.
4. If you know you were not here by 1997, show by raising your hands immediately. You can see! Ok. Hands down. 1997 should be about 22 years ago. 22 years ago. Have it at the back of your mind.
5. He was the one that came the first time. He is the One that came a second time. No other person.
6. Whether you see Michael the Archangel in the New Testament Revelations, he is no other Michael the Archangel than the one that buried Moses. They are not two. THE SON OF MAN is not two. He is One and His Name One.
7. BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH, Preached on the 8th of June, 1997 at the household of God Onitsha; By Apostle Peter Odoemena, The very Son of Man, The Laminated Human Being.
8. THE BLURB [BACK COVER OF THE MEESAGE BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH] THAT THE GENERATION THAT WILL RECEIVE THE REVELATION OF THE SON OF MAN IN THEIR DAY, IS A BLESSED GENERATION.
9. SONG: [We are a blessed generation, through Son of Man]
10. If God is dwelling in Me, I am God to you. If God decided to use Me, as the only Badger skin He will put on and I minister life to you, I am now God to you.
11. Behold your God cometh. At that point, the First Advent, He was born of a woman, he that foreran His advent was also born of a woman.
12. Then in His second coming, you are expecting Him to come from a cloud? You are right in expecting Him from the cloud; because by and by He must come from the Cloud.
13. Any moment we succeed in getting a family, a Church, a group of people having this man, who cannot be found in sin, who cannot play with His words, who is vindicated with this Shekinah Cloud around Him, who is not taking us back to the old genealogy, but opening our eyes to something we can call new doctrines, One we can still look back on the scene, all we have to do is to say glory be to God, for our problem is solved.
14. If Revelation is like this, then we will go back to Genesis to know where it took off, for we jumped to the back. (1997) 22 years ago.
15. If we can get a family here on earth. A Kingdom, a country, a Church where this Man who has no sin will identify Himself; A people, a nation, a Church, a Kingdom that is privileged to have this Man registered in their midst is a Blessed Church, a Blessed Family, a Blessed Kingdom, a Blessed Nation. He said, “All you have to do is to praise God, for your problems are over.”
16. Pg. 60 vs. 24 If you are not waiting for His appearing, if you are not preparing yourself for His appearing, you can never see Him. For He is of a purer eye to behold iniquity.
17. In other words, a sinful man can never walk in His way. He is not coming to pay the price for me, He is coming to save the redeemed.
18. Thus, if we are expecting God, Behold your God cometh. We are expecting Him for the second time, all we should be praying for is God help us, help us, let us not cast our eyes in the sky otherwise we become victims; we will perish with the world, because the world now have their eyes there.
19. Our eyes are now on the Net,…Our eyes are now where? …on the Net,… Was there any net in 1997? But the Almighty God saw the net. Our eyes are now on the net. 1997. 22 years ago. Nobody ever did browsing.
20. Our eyes are now on the Net,…When there was no net. Remember, the net was prophesied. He said, “Any moment from now, the world will see and read everything about Me in the net, for with the net, I will go global.”
21. Our eyes are now on the Net, to see if there be a woman, if there be a family that will be privileged to have one, bearing the sign. Whether there will be a family, a woman or any privileged that will have THIS MAN bearing the Sign
22. If there be a woman, a Church, a family, kingdom having a man who is holding the word, bearing the sign, one who is holding the voice, one who is here, although we are seeing Him as a man, He is being wrapped around with something which eyes cannot see. Brethren, put your hands together. Nothing can be truer than the truth. BEHOLD YOUR GOD COMETH.
23. If there be a woman, a Church, a family, kingdom having a man who is holding the word, bearing the sign, one who is holding the voice, one who is here, although we are seeing Him as a man, He is being wrapped around with something which eyes cannot see.
24. SPECIAL NUMBER: [Behold THE SON OF MAN, whose position is in the Right hand of the Father. Behold, He has arrived here on earth to save those who are waiting for Him]
25. [Behold the Almighty God as he steps into His Holy Sanctuary. Behold Jehovah as he steps into His Holy Sanctuary.]
26. We are celebrating our salvation. Full and complete. We are not here for any other thing. We are here to celebrate. We are here to praise God, that what the world has been looking for has been identified among us. What the world has been looking for is now identified in our midst.
27. So this is The Woman, The Elect Lady that has been privileged to deliver THE MAN. So THE MAN is now in the midst of the Bride. THE MAN that was foretold when the world was without form. All the Prophets of old spoke about HIM.
28. And at last, many were gunning for it, but One has lifted the trophy by His Grace. Election has given us the victory. Elect group. We are coming to something. It pays to be in the prophetic Ministry.
29. You see why we can never be an organized Church. THIS WILL REMAIN A MOVEMENT LED BY GOD HIMSELF. AND THAT IS WHY THE DIFFERENCE IS ALWAYS THERE. Remember you are here on your own.
30. If there be a woman, a Church, a family, kingdom having a man who is holding the word, bearing the sign, one who is holding the voice, one who is here, although we are seeing Him as a man,…
31. ONE who is here! Here! Here! Not one that is coming again. He is here, although we are seeing Him as a man. He is being wrapped around with something which eyes cannot see. A man that is laminated.
32. Any moment we succeed in getting a family, a Church, a group of people having this man, who cannot be found in sin,…
33. So He is born to righteousness. Iniquity is not found in Him. He does not work for righteousness. In Him, righteousness is revealed. He is the revealed righteousness of God from Faith to Faith. Look at the prophecy.
34. Any moment we succeed in getting a family, a Church, a group of people having this man, who cannot be found in sin, who cannot play with His words, who is vindicated with this Shekinah Cloud around Him, who is not taking us back to the old genealogy, but opening our eyes to something we can call new doctrines, One we can still look back on the scene, all we have to do is to say glory be to God, for our problem is solved.
35. SONG: [Glory be to God in the highest Amen. Glory be to God in the highest Amen. For His mercy endureth forever, Amen. For His mercy endureth forever, Amen]
36. Pay attention! Look at the prophecy. Whenever this MAN appears in any group, body of people, family, congregation or whatever you may call it, nation or Kingdom
37. If anybody is perishing, it is because he does not want to hear Him. For God performed this Supernatural around Him to enable you believe that He proceeded from God. In other words, Hear ye Him.
38. If anybody is perishing after seeing all these things, receiving this wonderful privilege of His visitation, the person is committing suicide.
39. He is deliberately going to hell, for he has made up his mind that he will not pay heed to His Word. “And his hard-heartedness”, according to the Prophets “Will lead him to everlasting punishment in hell.”
40. I prayed for all of you and you arrived here in good time. If there be any that is trailing behind, no sympathy for Esau.
41. If any man is going to hell, it is because he does not want to hear Him. But all that will be saved must surely, … Must surely what? …must surely be gladdened.
42. Their hearts will be filled with joy for this wonderful privilege of being in the place where THIS MAN identified Himself. In other words, you are not only worshipping where He has chosen to place His Name, you are worshiping in His presence where His presence and Glory fills all in all. Remember He is without sin. Iniquity cannot be traced to Him.
43. I am saying Behold your God cometh. Are you numbered among the people that are looking at the sky to see a Mediator coming? When He was revealed, was He revealed when He was in Heaven?
44. Not that they did not know Him as Jesus Christ or Emmanuel, not that they did not know Him as a son of Joseph or son of Mary, not that they did not know Him as a Hebrew or as a Jew, concerning those His qualities, they know very well but nobody knew Him as God,…
45. You see, concerning those things, they knew Him well, but nobody knew Him as God. 1997! Everywhere appears to be calm. Some have been overwhelmed by goose pimples, while some are regretting all their disobedience and stubbornness.
46. Who will say, “Had I known?” It is one who received this truth, forgot about it and started misbehaving, and luck ran against him. His journey got terminated at a time he never anticipated.
47. SONG: [If Jehovah will rise in judgment of this world, O Son of Man, I am solidly standing and deeply rooted behind you. This is because I know I will be numbered among those who will not be condemned. This is because I know I will be numbered among those who will not be condemned. O Son of Man, I am solidly standing and deeply rooted behind you.] Who is the Judge in this case?
48. Not that they did not know Him as Jesus Christ or Emmanuel, not that they did not know Him as a son of Joseph or son of Mary, not that they did not know Him as a Hebrew or as a Jew, concerning those His qualities, they know very well but nobody knew Him as God, nobody knew Him as a Messiah until He was revealed.
49. Until He was revealed as Messiah. Remember He has been in their midst sojourning. They knew Him. They knew where He was born. They knew the parents. They knew the brothers and sisters. They knew His carpenter’s workshop, but they never knew Him as God until He was revealed.
50. So, He was revealed from among His people. I mean that your childhood friend can turn out to be your God. Your in-law can turn out to be your God. You brother can turn out to be your God. Your friend can turn out to be your God. Your enemy can turn out to be your God. I mean the One you made attempts to kill and to poison to death can turn out to be your God.
51. God is mysterious in all His ways. Nobody can fathom the things of God from the beginning to the end.
52. I challenged all of you that will challenge yourselves to be here. You will never regret the pains you took on the highway. You will never regret even your transport fare.
53. Do you know that without God preserving this Message in print, many have forgotten about it? Is it not true? You see why He said, “I have preserved My Word that you will not perish.”You remain the only group that has a reference point. Today is another day. Today is another day.
54. Then from that time He was revealed, all that got the revelation rallied round Him. What are we doing?
55. SPECIAL NUMBER: [We are waiting for our LORD Saviour and Father to come take us home. We are waiting for our LORD Saviour and Father to come take us home.
56. Bountiful, Merciful and Wonderful God; Wonderful, Counsellor and Almighty God, We are waiting for our LORD Saviour and Father to come take us home. We are waiting for our LORD Saviour and Father to come take us home]
57. [Now the LORD has come to take His people home on that Glorious day. On that Glorious day, “Will you go with Me?” Is a life question for you Answer, My dear Brethren.
58. Now the LORD has come to take His Saints away on that Glorious day as He had promised. “Will you go with Me?” is a life question for you Answer, My dear Brethren.]
59. Anybody who is a member of Onitsha Fellowship who did not come here today has been blinded and deceived by the Devil.
60. The Cloud will remain because I am here. Look not outside. Consider not the weather, but consider what brought you here.
61. Then from that time He was revealed, all that got the revelation rallied round Him. But all that did not get the revelation, will they rally round Him. Good! You see why Faith is revelation? Good!
62. Why the rest stumbled out,… The rest that did not get the revelation of who He is, what did they do? They stumbled out. What stumbled them? HIS WORD. So, He is the Rock of offence, a stumbling Block where unbelievers stumble at His Word.
63. Brethren, everything is fulfilling here. Everything is fulfilling. You see this Faith?
64. SONG: [In the presence of God, everything is possible. In the presence of God, everything is possible.]
65. and I have now decided to challenge you,… What? … I have now decided to challenge you,… 1997! 22 years ago. And yet, you have not faulted THIS MAN. You have not faulted His prophecies. Go and check “God’s Visitation in All the Ages.”
66. If God had ever come out from the sky, you could trace God back to human beings.
67. When God said “I am coming to visit your family,” people will expect God to come down, before you know it a woman in that family will become pregnant, give birth to a child; God speaking things no one has ever spoken in that family.
68. Check God in all His ways, what am I doing? I am trying to help your faith that you forget all that had happened, rally round the message for Behold your God cometh. Amen.
69. I will like to have a little piece of the next Message because of the ministers, especially the seven that were privileged to follow Me.
70. I never made the selection. I only changed one. He that made the selection made a perfect selection. I never selected even one.
If you do not have the conviction that I am what I am claiming to be, you are not My disciple (an Elect). He that created the Heaven and Earth is here with you bodily. If you are not here by revelation of who I am (The Supreme Intelligence Himself), you are not with Me.

I KNOW I AM THE SON OF MAN
1. THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN SECURE YOUR SALVATION IN CHRIST, Preached on 16th October 1996… How many were here in 1996? Few hands! How many were not here 1996? By APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA, THE SON OF MAN, THE ELOHIM.
2. Watch, I would rather speak the truth and then face the consequence than to withhold truth so that I will be popular. I will never be there. Never! Never! I will never do that! You see, that is my problem.
3. This is the reason why I am telling you that if you incur the same trouble like others, the same thing they suffered awaits you. At the end of it all, you are receiving the same reward because God judges every man by one standard.
4. Please take whatever I am telling you to be truth for it has not been my manner to deceive or to tell lies to any of you. You have known Me, you have known my doctrines, and if there is anything you do not understand, feel free to ask question….
5. In the Message that came out today titled, REMEMBER YOUR REWARD PART 2 VOLUME 2, Preached on 21st April, 2019; there is a quote there which I want to read.
6. “I KNOW I AM THE SON OF MAN. Somebody introducing Himself. I KNOW THAT THE DEITY DWELLS IN ME. I KNOW THAT I AM GOD MADE VISIBLE IN HUMAN FORM. I KNOW I AM MARRIED. FROM MY LOINS, MY CHILDREN CAME.
7. HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT GIVEN THEM EXPRESS TICKET TO PARADISE. HAVE YOU UNDERSTOOD ME?
8. IF THERE SHOULD BE ONE THAT SHOULD COLLECT EXPRESS TICKET, THAT IS AUTOMATIC ENTRANCE, IT WILL START WITH MY FAMILY, NUMBER ONE BEING MY WIFE. NUMBER TWO, BEING MY CHILDREN. THEY DO NOT NEED TO BE LISTENING TO ME. – THE SON OF MAN – [THREE KINDS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, Preached on 14th October 2012, Pg. 153 vs. 96 – 98]
9. God judges everyman by one Standard. This quote is in today’s Message and it is the opening quote. Is there any Message clearer than this introduction?
10. I know I am THE SON OF MAN. I know the Deity dwells in Me. I know that I am God made visible in human form.
11. If you check 1993 Message, you do not need a Prophet to tell you what happened in the Message, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD. He called everything in their different names.
12. Please take whatever I am telling you to be truth for it has not been my manner to deceive or to tell lies to any of you.
13. You have known Me, you have known my doctrines, and if there is anything you do not understand, feel free to ask question. 1996!
14. Moreover, if it is too hard, just stay by my side and watch Me.
15. Chinelo Obasanya! Stand up there! IK Obasanya, stand up there! If you are the one deceiving your wife, you are going to hell with her.
16. Madam, if you are the one deceiving your husband, you are going to hell with your husband, whether you like it or not.
17. I have received your reports through the Pastor who directed you based on your request. I have received the reply that nobody should expect you to appear before the Elders, for your husband is better than them.
18. And My reply is, “I have never received any report from the Elders that one of the Elders attempted strangling his wife to death.” This report has always been coming from your family. This is the third time.
19. I have never received any report that the wife of any of the Elders ran away from her home to a heathen, but it came from your family. You ran away from your home and ran to a heathen.
20. “What makes your husband better than the Elders? Were you not the one that reported to the Pastor that your husband is about strangling you to death? And this is the second time he has attempted it.
21. And that instead of dying, that you are running away and that you are tired of the marriage and you will like to speak to the Church.”
22. And then, the Pastor arranged for you to appear before the Elders, only to get this silly reply. One is deceiving one or all of them are deceived, deceiving themselves. Sit down.
23. This is because you have rolled into the era where nobody is going to be excommunicated again. You are in the era when the wicked will continue in his wickedness and the righteous in his righteousness, for there is no type of news we will not hear from the Bride from that year 2018 onwards.
24. The overlapping judgment of God is still in the Bride. Believe it if you can. I am here. My eyes behold everything.
25. Please take whatever I am telling you to be truth for it has not been my manner to deceive or to tell lies to any of you.
26. You have known Me, you have known my doctrines, and if there is anything you do not understand, feel free to ask question.
27. Moreover, if it is too hard, just stay by my side and watch Me. If it is too hard for you to obey, stay by My side and watch the way I will do it. LEADERSHIP BY EXAMPLE.
28. Wherever I place my step, place your own there for I have told you that I will be a crazy man to come to this Church with my entire family, all that I can boast of in this world, I drag them into this Church, only to drag them to Hell. I do not think I will be crazy to that extent.
29. To drag my entire family, my wife and my children and my brothers, everybody, which I know that I do not have anything to give to you for I am in this Faith because the Voice said that I should be in this Faith.
30. I am in this Faith because The Voice said I should be in this Faith. I do not know what your own told you.
31. And that is why the Voice went further to say, “Peradventure you begin to hear discordant tones emanating from diverse places, listen to that still small Voice that is hidden within saying, ‘THIS IS THE WAY, WALK YE IN IT.’” THIS IS THE WAY, WALK YE IN IT. And I believe it is this still small Voice that has sustained many.
32. SONG: [Sometimes the Devil tempts Me and says it is all in vain to try to live a godly life and walk in Saviour’s Way. I hear the Voice saying, “I’ll give you a helping hand, if you only trust Me, I’ll drive you safely there.”
33. Then cheer My Brother. Cheer My Sister. Our trials will soon be over. Our loved ones we shall meet shall meet upon the golden shore. We are pilgrims here and we are strangers here. we are seeking a city to come. The Life Boat soon is coming to gather the Jewels home.]
34. SONG:[My God knows the way through the Wilderness. All I have to do is to follow. My God knows the Way through the Wilderness. All I have to do is to follow.]
35. SONG: Follow ye the LORD every day by day. Nothing shall happen if you follow Him. The Devil is roaring all over the world. Christ My God is My all and all.]
36. There is no gain; physically that will make somebody to come into this Church shouting and screaming even at the point of death which you are living witnesses.
37. There is no excuse any man can give to excuse his name from the pulpit. Thus, I do not think that I can close my eyes foolishly to blind you. God help us.
38. Remember, a day is coming when somebody’s absence in the Church will no longer be noticed. Amen!
39. Nobody takes delight in excommunicating anybody. Brethren there was a time we were very few in 1996, 1997 and the rest of those years. The absence of somebody from Fellowship was noticeable.
40. The moment we dismiss, Elders will go to the person’s house to know how the person is faring, but now, Main market does not recognize the absence of anybody.
41. So, if you think anybody will be vested with the responsibility to monitor you and police you about, you have missed the way. I said, “You have missed the way.” Nobody is ready for that silly business. But there is An All-Seeing Eye watching you and I.
42. SONG: [Watching me, watching you. Everyday mind that course you pursue. Watching me, watching you. There is an all-seeing eye watching you.]
43. So we do not have any other person assigned to you to begin to watch you and give us report. No!
44. 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.
45. 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. And the same thing I am saying before, I am saying it again. That is where I am striking.
46. 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.
47. 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.
48. 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. Am I making sense?
49. 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.
50. SO, CHECK THE LIFE YOU HAVE DECIDED TO LIVE, AND THAT IS WHAT DETERMINES YOUR ETERNAL DESTINY, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
51. Bro IK Ezindu, I hope you are taking note. THIS IS NOT THE HOME OF RELIGION. THIS IS THE HOME OF FAITH.
52. 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.
53. 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.
54. You see why hell is not for everybody, but for such people that have decided to take the wrong decisions after knowing the Truth?
55. 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.
56. 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.
57. We use to sing, [I am ready to obey Thy Word. I am ready to obey Thy Word. I am ready to obey The Living Word of God. I am ready to obey Thy Word]
58. We sing because it is sweet. Where He leads me, I will follow. It is a lie. It is a lie. 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.
59. 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?
60. 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.
61. 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.
62. 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.
63. 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.
64. “Come what may, under the sun or in the rain, if it will take killing, let it be done. Some people are gunned down as armed robbers. People are killed for various criminal activities.”
65. Let me be murdered because of my righteous living. Brother, go ahead. But while you are standing there, keep your ears and heart open because accident can happen.
66. In the Church of God, every Brother, every Sister should be seen on the Word. Should be seen on the Word. You must be found in the Word. I must be found in the Word. Everything you are going to do must be supported by the Word.
67. And you know the meaning of the Word. THE WORD IS IN THE BRIDE. Brethren, true or false?
68. The prophet William Branham said, “The Word is in the Bride.” And if you go to the Message titled THE WORD, The Word is THE ALMIGHTY GOD. His Name is THE WORD OF GOD. AND I HAVE KEPT ALL OF YOU TOGETHER BY HIS NAME, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD. Amen.
69. Nobody should be above the Word. Thus, do not see a Brother beyond the Word; do not see a Sister beyond the Word.
70. The Apostle is not above the Word, Prophet is not above the Word, we are all subject to the Word.
71. Have you seen why I have told you “do not wag your tongues anyhow. Do not be too judgmental. Place every action of a Brother on the doctrine; Place every action of a Sister on the doctrine before you pass your judgment.”
72. DO NOT USE YOUR WISHFUL THINKING. DO NOT USE YOUR DIRTY MIND. DO NOT USE YOUR SINFUL HEART; BECAUSE ONCE YOUR HEART IS SINFUL, YOU CAN NEVER BEHOLD ANYTHING GOOD AGAIN. THE STANDARD IS THE WORD.
73. As long as what a Brother or a Sister is doing or what he or she does dovetails to the Word and is in agreement with the revealed doctrines of Christ wherein all of us stand, that Brother or Sister is justified 24 hours of the day and before THE SON OF MAN who has given you His Word and you have believed in Him. A sure sign that you are in Him and He is also in you, for you and I are now one.
74. But when you use your dirty mind, wishful thinking, “The way I see it”, “In my own opinion”, you are bound to err and you persecute the righteous. You may even kill people that are holier than you.
75. SOMETHING IS GOOD BECAUSE THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST HAVE APPROVED IT. IT IS WRONG BECAUSE THE TEACHING SAID, NO! IF GOD HAS JUSTIFIED YOU, WHO WILL CONDEMN YOU? Definitely nobody!
76. You see why, when the Bride appears on the scene, the Prophet foretold it “They will do nothing except it is ‘THUS SAITH THE LORD.’ If it is not so, they do nothing.”
77. That is why a true Seed of God will always say, “What has God said concerning this? What is the mind of God concerning this?”, for the mind of God is revealed in His Word. IF THE WORD DOES NOT CONDEMN YOU, YOU ARE JUSTIFED.
78. In the end, what will He use to judge? The Word which He is giving to us even now. Amen.
79. So, let no man accuse you, but if the Word has found you guilty, repent immediately if there is time for repentance, for God cannot bypass His Word. Am I making sense?
80. IS THE REVEALED CHRIST [APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA] INTRODUCED TO YOUR HEART?
81. Read anything that is folded. For your sake, I will remain standing until I bring somebody here. This is because once I am standing, you will remain standing. Is it a lie? No sir!
82. The CLOUD is rejoicing because you are happy. Are you not happy? Are you not happy? We are!
83. SONG: [Behold the Almighty God as he steps into His Holy Sanctuary. Behold Jehovah as he steps into His Holy Sanctuary. Let us all crown Him The King of king]
84. Today is another day. If you want to take your photographs, you are free. Whether with your android or anything, you are free. If you want to do your recording, you are free. Nobody here is restricted. Even if you want to go naked, go naked. That’s all!
85. I mean exercise your liberty in Christ. Why don’t you turn to your Brother and your Sister and say, “I love you with the love of God. I love you with the love of God.”
86. SONG: [I love you with the love of God. I love you with the love of the LORD. I can see in you the Glory of the LORD. I love you with the love of God.]
87. Be seated everybody. Be seated. Children of God! Today is another day. Is there anybody that is afraid?
88. ANYBODY WHO IS AFRAID WHILE IN THE PRESENCE OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD, IS ONE THAT HAS FOUND IT DIFFICULT TO ABANDON EVIL.
89. IT HAS BECOME DIFFICULT FOR HIM OR HER TO ABANDON SIN. IT IS DIFFICULT FOR HIM OR HER TO ABANDON STUBBORNNESS. THAT IS WHY HE OR SHE IS AFRAID. Amen.
All I need in my life is Christ. Christ is sufficient to me. How many will like to hear from Me? I am bodily present and also spiritually. Whatever Heaven is made up of is here. The Power upholding the Universe is here. Whatever you think God is made up of is here. The Deity is here, yet many do not know. If you like believe. If you do not like, throw it away. But I am sure and certain that he that created the Heavens and the Earth is here though you may not know Him. He is here physically and spiritually. The totality of what God is all about is here.

GOD IS REVEALED AMONG HUMAN BEINGS (1)
1. IS THE REVEALED CHRIST [APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA] INTRODUCED TO YOUR HEART? A compilation of Golden Nuggets from the Messages of THE SON OF MAN by Evangelist Ben Okezue.
2. Pg. 20 vs. 23 …God reveals Himself to an individual, and quickly He becomes Deity in the inside of Him. What! God reveals Himself to an individual, and quickly He becomes Deity in the inside of Him. (COME THITHER QUICKLY, 2/2/58)
3. We are reading William Branham’s quotes. The Prophet of the age. God reveals Himself to an individual. Quickly, He becomes what? The Deity inside. Is it true?
4. John 7:28 Living Bible So Jesus in a sermon in the Temple called out, “Yes, you know me and where I was born and raised…
5. You know Me, where I was born, but you do not know Me as God. You know My brothers and sisters. You know My parents. You know My village. You can drive safely to My compound.
6. You might be having the opportunity of even sleeping with Me and eating with Me, but you have never known Me as God. Why? You have not recognized that the Deity is in Me.
7. Look at the Message, “I know I am THE SON OF MAN. I know that the deity is in Me. I know that I am God made visible in human form.” Three kinds of believers. Nothing can be truer than the Truth.
8. God reveals Himself to an individual and quickly, that individual becomes the Deity. Whether you were there or not, it means nonsense.
9. How many were there at the backside of the Mountain where Moses met Him? How many were there when John met Him? How many were there when Mary met Him? How many were there when Zachariah met Him? And others, even Abraham when they discussed.
10. When he was wrestling in the wilderness with Jacob, were you there?
11. I do not believe until I see with my eyes. You may not see until you become blinder and blinder and perish. Blessed is he that seeth not but he believed. “Until I see with my eyes” Go ahead.
12. John 7:28 Living Bible 28 So Jesus, in a sermon in the Temple, called out, “Yes, you know me and where I was born and raised, but I am the representative of one you don’t know, I am what? …the representative of one you do not know and he is the truth. LB
13. Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from. I am not here on my own authority, but he who sent me is true. You do not know him, NIV. Do you understand it?
14. SPECIAL NUMBER: [Behold THE SON OF MAN, whose position is in the Right hand of the Father. Behold, He has descended to the earth to save the children of God, those who are waiting for Him. Let us all crown Him The King of kings]
15. This is the song of songs. Today is THE SON OF MAN’S day. We are celebrating THE SON OF MAN who volunteered to visit us here, and not only visiting. He has come to stay.
16. After today, that prophecy, “You know not what is in your midst” will not be rehearsed here again. It will follow all the unbelievers to their families. Nobody will hear it in the Bride, “You know not what is in your midst, you despisers.” No!
17. Whoever that echoes Amen to it, it will follow you to your home, for all will know Me from the least to the greatest that I AM HE, and after Me cometh no other.
18. I have been telling you. I AM THE RESURRECTION. I AM THE LIFE. I AM THE JUDGE OF THE WHOLE EARTH. FROM ME EMANATES RIGHTEOUSNESS. SPREAD THE TIDINGS ROUND THE WHOLE GLOBE, THE COMFORTER IS HERE.
19. Whereupon Jesus called out as He taught in the temple [porches], do you know Me, and do you know where I am from? I have not come on My own authority and of My own accord and as self-appointed, but the One Who sent Me is true (real, genuine, steadfast); and Him you do not know! AMP
20. God reveals Himself to an Individual… Note! To an individual, not collectively. And quickly, he becomes Deity in the inside of Him. [COME HITHER, QUICKLY 2/2/58]
21. A wicked and adulterous generation would receive the sign of resurrection…A wicked and adulterous generation such as we are in, will receive the sign of his resurrection.
22. A sign to this generation… A Sign to this generation just before the destruction. Remember we are living in an age, a dispensation, a generation earmarked for destruction and I will show you why it must be this generation.
23. Apart from the generation of Noah, there is no record that God has wiped off all inhabitants of the earth, sparing the righteous. Rather He has visited some countries, but He did not wipe any off.
24. In Jericho, He did not wipe them off. He even saved unbelievers. To Nineveh, he only sent a warning. When few people repented, he changed his mind. I am here.
25. If God destroys any other nation before the last, He ceases to be Alpha and Omega. Once you have a beginning, you expect the end. Finish! The two umpires. Life and death.
26. Life started after the deluge. From that day, God vowed He will never destroy the world again with flood. But this present world that took off after Noah, has been earmarked for fire.
27. AND I WILL TELL YOU HOW YOU WILL KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE ROLLED INTO THE LAST LAP. I AM THE SIGN FOR THE LAST LAP.
28. A sign to this generation just before the burning, ELOHIM IN HUMAN FLESH… What? …ELOHIM IN HUMAN FLESH…
29. A sign to this generation before the fire falls; before its destruction, ELOHIM IN HUMAN FLESH. GOD BECOMING A HUMAN BEING AGAIN. Remember the one we read was 1958.
30. What is it a sign of? ELOHIM BACK IN THE BRIDE IN HUMAN FORM. Put your hands together. Did he say, “Elohim back to the world?”
31. [Behold the Almighty God as he steps into His Holy Sanctuary. Behold Jehovah as he steps into His Holy Sanctuary. Let us all go forth to meet Him, crown Him The King of kings]
32. HE IS THE KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS. And that is what the Saints will crown Him. The enemies of God are now afraid even near unto death. While the Saints are jubilating, the unrighteous are bowing their heads low.
33. Some are beating their chest in regret, “Who knows whether I am a part of those that have crossed the divide? Who knows whether I have sinned away my period of grace due to ignorance and stupidity, and due to my hard-heartedness, selfishness, aggrandizement and materialism.”
34. Elohim back in the Bride again in the last days, doing the same thing. In the last days. Doing another thing? Repeating the same thing. (SIGNS OF HIS COMING, 7/4/62)
35. SONG:[The Holy One came from heaven to visit us here on earth. With all our hearts we give you the thanksgiving as we say, “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” O SON OF MAN, we thank you”]
36. [I AM HE THAT LIVETH AND WAS DEAD, AND BEHOLD I AM ALIVE FOREVER MORE. COME UNTO ME O YE NATIONS AND BE SAVED, FOR I AM HE THAT LIVETH AND WAS DEAD] Shall we all say, “Amen”
37. “The same gospel, the same Christ… Note! The same Gospel, the same Christ. Not another one, for Christ is one. One LORD, One God, one Baptism, one Name, everything One. The same Gospel. The same Christ.
38. “The same gospel, the same Christ that lived in flesh back yonder at the beginning on the Eastern people,… have you heard it? THE EASTERN PEOPLE. Remember we are in the West. We are not in the East. That same Christ, that same Gospel that was there in the Middle east,
39. …shall be in the Western people at the end-time.”Shall what? …shall in the Western people at the end-time.” Shall what? …shall in the Western people at the end-time.”
40. SONG: [Are you prepared? The Saviour has arrived. Are you prepared? The Saviour has arrived]
41. Have you seen how blessed that family, that woman, that Church, that nation, that kingdom, O! where this MAN that was born without sin has decided to make His dwelling place? All we have to say is, “Praise the LORD.”
42. If you are going to hell, you are going because you refused to obey him. Brethren, today is another day.
43. Everybody be seated, let us enjoy this Fellowship. We prayed for the weather. We prayed for everything, and He that said, “Go, I am with you” is here. Amen!
44. The same God. The same Christ. The same Message [Gospel] that was there in the East back yonder, that time, is tracing the Elect to the West. The same Christ, not another person.
45. “The same gospel, the same Christ that lived in flesh back yonder at the beginning on the Eastern people, shall in the Western people at the end-time.” SHALL. Future. (FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, page 35. 19/7/64). 19th day of July, 1964.
46. And the MAN is here. I AM THE MAN WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. IF YOU LIKE BELIEVE. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE DO NOT BELIEVE. YOUR UNBELIEF TAKES NOTHING FROM ME. IT ADDS NOTHING TO ME, FOR I AM WHAT I AM.IN HIM WAS THE FATHER REVEALED. I AM AND I AM, SEE THE LORD IN THE LORD.
47. “Give me a Church that’s so completely anointed with God till their every action and move is ‘Thus Saith The Lord’, walk in the Shekinah glory. I’ll show you a Messiah, anointed One of God, standing upon the Earth.” (WHO DO YOU SAY THIS IS? Page 25, 27/12/64).
48. I know that My Redeemer liveth, and He will come on the last day. I know that My Redeemer liveth, and He shall stand upon the earth. [Job 19:25]
49. Place the Word of God right, the Deity, the Elohim must vindicate it with supernaturals, and He will stand there live. When He announced it, He said, “Nobody visited you o. It is God that has come to you, live.”
50. And Bishop Nath preached it in those days and said, “Nobody is coming o. I have read all the prophecies of the prophets. I have seen what is happening at Nkpor. I went live. He that has visited us is God. That is Christ. Nobody is coming but Christ. If it does not fulfill, know that I did not see Him.”
51. He was vibrating in his youth that time. He surrendered his false apostleship bag. [Bishop Nath says, “At Thy feet, live!”] And then followed Christ.
52. It pays to worship God in the place where He is. Who do you say this MAN is?
53. Don’t expect to find the Anointed One in this day in some counterfeit, dead, denominational Church.
54. No sir! He must be revealed in a Church that is totally surrendered to God and every of their action is ‘Thus Saith the Lord.
55. The Bride of Christ is the only Church on Earth that has met this qualification, and therefore, the only Church where God has revealed Himself.
56. “The Son of Man will be revealed in a body of flesh, you people, the Church, just exactly like it was before the days of Sodom, a called out group, away from all of them, setting out, believing the promise of God.” (WORK IS FAITH EXPRESSED, page 44. 26/11/65).
57. “He is the one who opened those Seals. What? “He is the one who opened those Seals. He is those Seals. He is also those Seals.
58. For the whole Word of God is Christ (the Anointed One)… The whole Word of God of God is what? Christ… Which was SEALED, CONSEALED, KEPT SECRET.CHRIST IS THE MYSTERY OF GOD REVEALED
59. For the whole Word of God is Christ (the Anointed One) and Christ is the Seals that was open. What is the opening of those Seals then? Revealing Christ (the Anointed One).” (RISING OF THE SUN, page 45. 18/4/65).
60. “Alright. They missed Him, the living Word manifested in the flesh… The Word was made flesh, and it dwelt among us. [John 1:14]
61. .…by the Word that is promised. The Word promised to do these things. The promise was made, and it’ll be like this in the last days. ‘As it was in the day of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of Man.” (THIRD SEAL, Page 252. 20/03/63).
62. “He came in the power of the scriptures, exactly the interpretation of the scripture.
63. But the people of that day, that was looking for Him to come, missed Him,… because they erred, not knowing the Scriptures, for Scriptures will tell.
64. But the people of that day, who were waiting for Him to come, missed Him, because they had an interpretation that they could not go from that interpretation. They must have it their way.” (SIR, WE WOULD SEE JESUS, page 13. 12/1 1/63).
65. “But the theologians had it all figured out their way, and they missed Him a hundred miles. But He never came contrary to the Word. He came according to the Word.
66. But why didn’t they receive Him? Because He didn’t come the way they thought He ought to come. That’s exactly the way they missed Noah. That’s the way they missed Moses.
67. That’s the way they missed it all down through the age. They failed to see the simplicity of God doing something see?” (GOD HIDING HIMSELF IN SIMPLICITY. 12/04/63).
68. “Let me say this: you’re looking for something to come to pass that’s already here, it’s going a past you, and you don’t know it. You’re trying to place it a future.” (HAVE FAITH IN GOD. 05/01/57).
69. “Then there’s nothing left but judgment when mercy has being, spurned. And here we are at the end of the road. The supernatural being done. It’s been laughed at and made fun of.
70. And the last thing, God has come in His own power, in His own beloved Son to work through His Church, and they say it’s spiritualism, or, the Devil.
71. What else can be left but judgment? And here is the handwriting on the wall. But if that close, and any Teacher knows that the Church goes in the Rapture before the tribulation sets in.
72. So if that is that close, could happen before morning, what about the Rapture? It’s closer than that” (HANDWRITING ON THE WALL. 08/01/58).
73. “God has dealt with His Church all along through signs, wonders. But the last thing was in human flesh there, and show that same sign that Messiah had already represented Himself amongst the people just before the fire falls at the last day; a credential to confirm that the Word that Jesus promised is the truth.” (CONFIRMATION OF THE COMMISSION. 22/01/62).
74. “He’s never done them since in all the age, until the closing of the Gentile dispensation that we are now living in. And this wicked, and adulterous generation, has received the sign of the resurrection, the last sign to be given to the Church.” (GREATER THAN SOLOMON IS HERE. 25/06/55).
75. “People are looking forward to a great something to come, and you’re at the end of what has already come. The last signs has been given to the Gentile Church. The Jews will have it after the Church is raptured, but we’re in the end of the Gentile age.” (DISCERNING BODY OF THE LORD. 12/08/59).
76. “Then if He’s raised from the dead, here’s His picture, scientifically, that He’s the same. Here’s His works moving on that He’s the same.
77. But the reason you’re looking at it, because some uneducated person like myself is bringing you the message. Don’t look at the messenger, look at the message I’m talking about.” (LOVE, 19/05/57).
78. Have you not seen Christ manifested in His power in His Church? “As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be at the coming of THE SON OF MAN. And remember, the elected seen any other sign after that, not one time did God to Abraham after that. Nothing else in the world, but Sarah was turned immediately to a young woman, and Abraham a young man.” (SIRS WE WOULD SEE JESUS, Page 27. 12/11/63).
79. “There was not more sign done until Sodom was turned. The last thing that the Church is going to see is Christ manifested in His power, in fullness, in His Church, just before the fire falls.” (INVESTMENT, Page 18. 3/8/63).
80. We thank God for Bro David. Deacon, you can sit down, take a glass of water and cool off because the next round will be the longest. Today is your day and My day.
Allow what we have read to bear fruit in you. You have been with Me all these years. I have not told you I am Christ, that I am this or that, but by revelation of the Word, you have placed Me on one place or the other, which I believe is the best revelation. Many have come trying to force human beings to believe that they are one thing or the other. For the Prophet guided us very well. He said, “The Word of God will tell us who He is. Christ will come in the Bride and be revealed in His Word.” – THE SON OF MAN
LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS VOL. 2; Preached on 30th April 2000; Pg. 56vs. 29

GOD IS REVEALED AMONG HUMAN BEINGS (2)
1. THE REVELATION OF WHO GOD IS GOES TO THE ELECT ONLY; Preached on December 10th, 2000 by Apostle Peter Odoemena [THE SON OF MAN]. He is not going to read the fullness, but he will pick verses and pages.
2. Pg. 74 vs. 33 – 35; NOW, IF I INVITE YOU TO COME, I AM DUTY BOUND TO INTRODUCE MYSELF TO YOU. Sure! …IF I INVITE YOU TO COME, I AM DUTY BOUND TO INTRODUCE MYSELF TO YOU.
3. Enoch was right when he heard, “Come!”, he went with those with him, and the person that invited him said, “I AM THAT SON OF MAN.”
4. …IF I INVITE YOU TO COME, I AM DUTY BOUND TO INTRODUCE MYSELF TO YOU. GOD CAN ONLY INTRODUCE HIMSELF TO THE PEOPLE HE CALLED. What?GOD CAN ONLY INTRODUCE HIMSELF TO THE PEOPLE HE CALLED. That is the Elect. Good!
5. NOBODY WILL KNOW GOD, EXCEPT THOSE GOD HIMSELF CALLED. Amen! And whoever He calls, the Bible said, “He justifies. Whoever he justifies, He raises to heavenly dignity that he might conform to the image of the first born. [Romans 8:30]
6. Remember, it is God that called us. He invited us to come and share with Him, His glory and His Kingdom.
7. It is God introducing Himself to us. He is to tell us why He has invited us. Our duty is to obey and believe that He is serious with us. He is not playing.
8. I want to talk to [you] and use the opportunity to refresh your hearts that THE REVELATION OF WHO GOD IS, THE REVELATION OF WHO CHRIST IS GOES TO THE PREDESTINATED ONLY.
9. OUTSIDE THE PREDESTINATED, EVERY OTHER PERSON WILL SEE HIM AS A MERE MAN. Sure!
10. Outside the predestinated, Elect, Called and Chosen, every other person will see Him as a mere man. Only these people will see Him as The Lord Almighty. Some will end at “Brother.”
11. Pg. 86 vs. 18; NOTE THAT CLOUD; IT IS VERY ESSENTIAL. TOO MANY PEOPLE MAY APPEAR. BUT WE MUST WATCH OUT FOR ONE THAT WILL COME WITH THE CLOUD. THAT IS THE ONE WE ARE LOOKING FOR.
12. IF ANY MAN COMES CLAIMING ONE THING OR THE OTHER, AND WE CANNOT BEHOLD THAT CLOUD, WE WILL BRUSH THAT ONE ASIDE.
13. Pg. 90 vs. 37 – In other words, THE SON OF MAN WILL BE HERE ON EARTH, WILL BE A PART OF THE CORRUPT EARTH. WHEN HE SHALL BE REVEALED, HE SHALL BE REVEALED BY THE CLOUD. WHEN HE SHALL BE REVEALED, HE SHALL BE REVEALED IN THE CLOUD OF HEAVEN.
14. BUT THERE IS NO CLOUD UPON THE EARTH. IF HE IS EARTHLY, HE CANNOT WEAR CLOUD. BUT HE SHALL BE REVEALED WITH THE SAME THING THAT CAUGHT HIM UP. THAT THING THAT SEALED HIM AWAY.
15. He was caught up in the clouds of Heaven. The Cloud received Him and held Him captive until the time of the restitution of all things spoken of by the Prophets and Apostles.
16. WHEN HE SHALL BE REVEALED, HE SHALL BE REVEALED WEARING THE SAME THING. IN OTHER WORDS, HE WILL BE A MAN, WEARING WATER-PROOF [NYLON] OR A LAMINATED HUMAN BEING.
17. YOU KNOW WHAT LAMINATION IS? WHEN YOU LAMINATE A CERTIFICATE, IT DOES NOT CHANGE THE OUTLOOK. WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT, IT IS VERY NICE BUT IT IS SEALED.
18. And that is The Man we were looking for in 1997. Finally, we saw Him.
19. IT CAN WITHSTAND ANYTHING RAIN. SO, LOOKING AT HIS CONDITION, WE WILL SEE HIM AS A MERE MAN. WE CAN TOUCH HIM BUT WE DO NOT KNOW THAT WE ARE JUST LIKE SOMEBODY THAT IS TRYING TO TOUCH THE FIGURES THAT ARE LAMINATED.
20. YOUR HAND CAN NEVER GO BEYOND THE WATER-PROOF [NYLON]. THUS, WHEN YOU THINK YOU ARE TOUCHING THE LETTERS, YOU ARE TOUCHING WATER-PROOF. A MAN IN A CELLOPHANE BAG THAT IS HIGHLY TRANSPARENT. THAT IS CHRIST. EMMANUEL.
21. Pg. 96 vs. 56 NOW, WE HAVE READ THESE SCRIPTURES AND IT IS CLEAR THAT HE WILL BE REVEALED AT A TIME WHEN THE WORLD HAS BECOME SO CORRUPT, “GOD, COME AND WIPE OFF THIS WORLD.” THERE WILL BE TOTAL LAWLESSNESS, AND TOTAL MORAL DECAY UNTIL EVERYBODY WILL BE SHOUTING. WHEN THE WORLD COMES TO THAT STAGE, EXPECT THE REVELATION OF THE SON OF MAN.
22. Pg. 106 vs. 26. IF WE HAVE KNOWN GOD TODAY, IF WE HAVE SEEN HIM TODAY, IT IS A PRIVILEGE. IT IS UNMERITED FAVOUR. IT IS A SURE SIGN THAT GOD FOREKNEW US, PREDESTINATED US, NUMBERED US AMONG THE PEOPLE THAT WILL SERVE AS HIS WITNESSES. THAT IS WHERE I STAND.
23. Pg. 135 vs. 58 – NOBODY WILL KNOW GOD, UNTIL HE IS REVEALED. HE MAY BE REVEALED TO YOUR BROTHER AS GOD, AND REVEALED TO SOMEBODY ELSE AS SATAN.
24. WHILE YOU ARE SITTING DOWN HERE, GOD MAY REVEAL HIMSELF TO BROTHER ONYEMA AS GOD, REVEAL HIMSELF TO BROTHER JAMES AS SATAN. YET, HE IS GOD. BROTHER ONYEMA IS SEEING GOD. TO BROTHER JAMES, HE IS SEEING SATAN.
25. ANYBODY GOD WANTS TO SAVE, HE WILL REVEAL HIS DEITY TO HIM AS GOD. ANYBODY HE WANTS TO KILL, TO DESTROY, HE WILL REVEAL HIMSELF AS SATAN. HE CAN BLASPHEME HIM. GOD CAN NOW HAVE A GROUND WHERE HE CAN STAND AND THEN DESTROY HIM.
26. I am interested. Pg. 135 vs. 58 NOBODY WILL KNOW GOD, UNTIL HE IS REVEALED. HE MAY BE REVEALED TO YOUR BROTHER AS GOD, AND REVEALED TO SOMEBODY ELSE AS SATAN.
27. In what way is THE SON OF MAN revealed to you. WHAT IS THE SON OF MAN TO YOU BY REVELATION? THAT WILL DETERMINE YOUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS HIS WORDS AND HIS DOCTRINES.
28. WHILE YOU ARE SITTING DOWN HERE, GOD MAY REVEAL HIMSELF TO BROTHER ONYEMA AS GOD, REVEAL HIMSELF TO BROTHER JAMES AS SATAN. YET, HE IS GOD. BROTHER ONYEMA IS SEEING GOD. TO BROTHER JAMES, HE IS SEEING SATAN.
29. ANYBODY GOD WANTS TO SAVE, HE WILL REVEAL HIS DEITY TO HIM AS GOD. ANYBODY HE WANTS TO KILL, TO DESTROY, HE WILL REVEAL HIMSELF AS SATAN. HE CAN BLASPHEME HIM. GOD CAN NOW HAVE A GROUND WHERE HE CAN STAND AND THEN DESTROY HIM. Yes!
30. …ANYBODY WHO GOD WANTS TO REVEAL HIMSELF, HE WILL BRING HIM FACE TO FACE TO HIMSELF, ADD HIM TO HIS FAMILY SO THAT HE WILL KNOW HIM VERY WELL.
31. …ANYBODY WHO GOD WANTS TO REVEAL HIMSELF, HE WILL BRING HIM FACE TO FACE TO HIMSELF, ADD HIM TO HIS FAMILY…Make him a part of His family…SO THAT HE WILL KNOW HIM VERY WELL.
32. ANYBODY HE WANTS TO DESTROY, HE WILL HARDEN HIS HEART, PUT HIM OUTSIDE HIS FAMILY SO THAT HE CAN BE JUSTIFIED WHEN HE WILL DESTROY HIM.
33. IF I KNOW HIM AS GOD AND HONOUR HIM AS GOD, I AM HIS FRIEND NOW. IF THEY KNOW HIM AS GOD BUT CANNOT HONOUR HIM AS GOD, HE WILL HAND THEM OVER TO THE SPIRIT OF DELUSION SO THAT THEY CAN BLASPHEME HIM AND THEN HE WILL DESTROY THEM IN ANGER.
34. Anybody God wants to save must come face to face. Is it not true? For that reason, the queen of Sheba travelled for many months just to see him live. But greater than Solomon is here. Wherever God is can never be far for the Elect. Anywhere God is, is far from the wicked, for God is far from the wicked but very close to the Elect.
35. Even if He is on the Mountain, the Elect must be there. In the valley, the Elect will be there. But let God be at the doorstep, a wicked man will not go there. He will go his way. It does not concern him.
36. Pg. 137 vs. 66 – 67HAVE I NOT TOLD YOU THAT GOD IS REVEALED? You can have him in your family without knowing Him. I am telling you the truth.
37. …ANYBODY THAT IS GAZING AT THE SKY, HE WILL HEAR, “HE HAS COME. HE HAS GONE.” GOD IS ALWAYS REVEALED FROM AMONG HUMAN BEINGS… Sure!
38. …AND HE REVEALETH HIMSELF TO WHOSOEVER HE WILLETH. What? …HE REVEALETH HIMSELF TO WHOSOEVER HE WILLETH. Whosoever He wants. You see! Not he that runneth, not he that willeth, but God that showeth mercy. [Romans 9:16]
39. YOU CANNOT FORCE GOD TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU. What? YOU CANNOT FORCE GOD TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU. So, blessed is that human being, who is privileged to have God as his friend, where God withholds nothing.
40. IF HE WANTS TO HIDE HIS IDENTITY FROM YOU, YOU WILLNOT SLAP HIM. Because He is an expert in doing that. You know He is here. Onitsha does not know. Nsugbe does not know. To Nigeria, nobody knows. That is the way He has chosen to live.
41. IN OTHER WORDS, IF GOD WANTS THE WHOLE WORLD TO KNOW HIM, IT CANNOT BE BY REVELATION. ONCE IT IS BY REVELATION, NOW IT GOES TO INDIVIDUALS BECAUSE REVELATION IS INDIVIDUALLY. Amen. There is no universal revelation
42. Pg. 143 vs. 13 WE TELL YOU TO GET BAPTIZED SO THAT YOU COME INTO THE CHURCH. BUT A DAY IS COMING WHEN YOU WILL BE SAVED WITHOUT BAPTISM.
43. Brethren, put your hands together. And now, is that day, where baptism is no longer attached to your salvation, but your obedience to the Truth. Brethren, fear God! Bishop Nath said, “He [God] is a Mighty Masquerade.”
44. WE TELL YOU TO GET BAPTIZED SO THAT YOU COME INTO THE CHURCH. BUT A DAY IS COMING WHEN YOU WILL BE SAVED WITHOUT BAPTISM.THE CHURCH DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE VOICE. They did not recognize the Voice, even now.
45. WE TELL YOU TO GET BAPTIZED IN HIS NAME TODAY SO THAT WE ADD YOU TO THIS GATHERING. BUT A DAY IS COMING WHEN YOU SHALL BE SAVED WITHOUT BAPTISM.
46. YOU ARE PRAYING IN HIS NAME TODAY AND HE WILL PRAY TO THE FATHER. BUT A DAY IS COMING WHEN YOU WILL PRAY IN HIS NAME AND HE WILL NOT PRAY TO THE FATHER.
47. Brethren has it come to pass? Do not worry. People that received that Name in the days of Enoch glorified God.
48. BUT A DAY IS COMING WHEN YOU WILL PRAY IN HIS NAME AND HE WILL NOT PRAY TO THE FATHER. YOU RECEIVE IT FOR THE ASKING. You do what?
49. YOU RECEIVE IT FOR THE ASKING. No intermediary.
50. Deacon Denis! Glory be to God for this thing that dragged you out today. Yes!
51. A DAY IS COMING WHEN ALL REFERENCES TO THE FATHER WILL CEASE… Now is that day. Why? You have seen the Father. You have known who He is. So, there is no need saying, “Show us the father and that suffices us.” No! IF BY NOW, YOU ARE STILL LOOKING FOR THE FATHER, IT THEN MEANS THAT YOU ARE NOT A PART OF WHAT GOD IS DOING IN YOUR DAY.
52. EVERY ELECT OF GOD IS NOT ONLY A PART, BUT HE IS WELL POSITIONED TO HOOK UP. AMEN.
53. See Bishop Chidubem, across the ocean is just a kilometre to him. He did not want to be told by Brethren who are living at Port Harcourt.
54. He crossed the ocean, from few kilometres away from Guinea-Bissau. He wanted to be here, live. And he is here, live. Defying all the fears on the highway. All threats.
55. A woman travelled for three months with ordinary horse, defying all the fears and threats of robbers in the desert, in the valley and on the mountains, just with her maidservants, to behold the wisdom of a man called Solomon. A GREATER THAN SOLOMON IS HERE.
56. Who is walking in? is she coming from the window or from the door? From the door? OK, sit down, for those that come from the window are rogues who must be bound hands and feet, but the real people come through the door. [John 10:1]
57. I AM THE DOOR. BY ME, YOU GO IN AND YOU GO OUT AND FIND PASTURE FOR YOURSELF. [John 10:9]
58. A DAY IS COMING WHEN ALL REFERENCES TO THE FATHER WILL CEASE. THEN IT WILL BE FACE TO FACE CONNECTION.
59. SONG: [Just any day now, our LORD is coming. He’ll be returning for you and me. and I’ll be waiting. And I’ll be watching. And just any day now, His face I see] A prophetic song that has come to pass.
60. Pg. 145 vs. 21 21LET ME JUST TELL YOU WHAT I MEAN. WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IN ME DWELLETH THE FULLNESS, THE CIRCLE, NOT HALF, NOT QUARTER, NOT IN PART.
61. IN ME DWELLETH THE FULLNESS OF THE GODHEAD IN THIS FLESH, IN THIS CHURCH. I MADE A COMPLETE CIRCLE. I DID NOT FORM A DIAMETER; AND THE TRUTH THAT IS IN ME REACHETH UNTO THE CLOUDS.
62. Pg. 151 vs. 41 NOW, I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT GOD IS REVEALED. GOD IS NOT COMING DOWN FROM ANYWHERE.
63. GOD IS ALWAYS BORN AMONGST HUMAN BEINGS, LIVES WITH HUMAN BEINGS, GROW UP IN THE MIDST OF HUMAN BEINGS. YET, IT DOES NOT STOP HIM FROM BEING WHAT HE IS.
64. HOWEVER, HE REVEALS HIMSELF TO THOSE PEOPLE HE WANTS TO SAVE.
65. He reveals Himself as God to those people He wants to save, but to those He does not want to save He reveals Himself as Satan, Devil, Lucifer, so that they will blaspheme him that He may have strong ground to destroy them. TO THE REST, THEY WILL NOT KNOW HIM.
66. Pg. 154 vs. 50 – 52 WITHOUT REVELATION, YOU CAN SLAP GOD. WITHOUT REVELATION, YOU CAN SNEER AT GOD. WITHOUT REVELATION FROM THE ALMIGHTY, YOU CAN ALSO BE GUILTY THE SAME WAY THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL, JEWS ARE GUILTY TODAY, CALLING YOUR OWN GOD DEVIL AND ALL MANNER OF NAMES, ALL TO YOUR OWN DESTRUCTION.
67. THAT IS WHY WHEN HE CAME DOWN, HE TOLD US TO PADLOCK OUR LIPS. HE SAID, “DO NOT BE QUICK IN CALLING ANYTHING GOD OR DEVIL. TIME WILL VINDICATE ALL THINGS. TIME WILL VINDICATE ALL THINGS.”
68. AS MANY AS WERE QUICK TO OPEN THEIR MOUTHS, ARE THEY IN THE FAITH TODAY? NO SIR! THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A WAY TO COME BACK. IT HAS BECOME LATE.
69. REMEMBER, I AM ANSWERING QUESTION THAT GOD HAS NEVER REVEALED HIMSELF TO THE WHOLE WORLD. HE IS ONLY GOING TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS WRATH.
70. ONE DAY HE HAS RESERVED TO JUDGE THE WORLD IN RIGHTEOUSNESS. IT IS THAT DAY THAT THE WHOLE WORLD WILL FEEL THE WRATH OF HIS ANGER. UNTIL THEN, GOD WILL CONTINUE TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO HIS CHOSEN ONES.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The more you know the personality, pay attention now, the divine personality, the unique individual you are having dealings with, the stronger your acquaintance will be, the stronger your loyalty, your obedience, your faithfulness, your submission will be. This is because you are now sure and certain He is not impersonating anything. All that were written concerning him, He is fulfilling all to the letter for I am doing everything in fulfillment of all that were written concerning me and you will fulfill what is written concerning you. There is nobody here who has nothing written concerning him or her. You might not have seen your own but does it exist? Yes, it exists.

GOD IS REVEALED AMONG HUMAN BEINGS (3)
1. PROPHETIC QUOTES FROM THE HOLY QUR’AN ABOUT THE RETURN OF CHRIST AS PROPHESIED BY THE HOLY PROPHET MOHAMMAD AND ALSO BY PROPHET WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM [THE CONFIRMATION OF TRUTH] BY THE SON OF MAN; Pg. 10 verse 1
2. Ali ibn Abu Talib says: The promised Mahdi (as) will be descended from me and will appear in the End Times. THERE IS NO OTHER MAHDI AWAITED BY ANY OTHER NATION APART FROM HIM.” (Isbat al-Hudat, Vol. 7, p. 148.)
3. In this hadith our Prophet (saas) tells us that MUSLIMS, JEWS and CHRISTIANS are all awaiting the same Savior, and that ALL THREE FAITHS ARE AWAITING HAZRAT MAHDI (as).
4. “…At that point, just when the movement appears to be very strong, THE RELIGION OF TRUE CHRISTIANITY, WHICH COMPRISES THE COLLECTIVE PERSONALITY OF JESUS (Upon whom be peace), WILL EMERGE.
5. That is, it will descend from the skies of divine mercy. PRESENT DAY CHRISTIANITY WILL BE PURIFIED IN THE FACE OF THAT REALITY; IT WILL CAST OFF SUPERSTITION AND DISTORTION, AND UNITE WITH THE TRUTHS OF ISLAM.
6. …Then the person of Jesus (Upon whom be peace), who is present with his human body in the world of the heavens, will come to lead the current of true religion, as, relying on the promise of One Powerful Over All Things, the Bringer of Sure News has said.
7. When Jesus (Upon whom be peace) comes, NOT EVERYONE WILL KNOW HIM TO BE THE TRUE JESUS. HIS ELECT AND THOSE CLOSE TO HIM WILL RECOGNIZE HIM THROUGH THE LIGHT OF BELIEF.
8. We are quoting the Holy Qur’an. We are no longer talking about William Branham. We are no longer talking about this and that. Remember, the reference is to the Resurrected Body.
9. When He will come, He will not come in the name of Jesus Christ. And nobody will recognize Him as Jesus the Christ, if not the Elect. How will they know Him? Through their belief.
10. IT WILL NOT BE SELF-EVIDENT SO THAT EVERYONE WILL RECOGNIZE HIM… (Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, 15th Letters Second Current)
11. Furthermore, “Everything will perish save His countenance”… What? ……..“Everything will perish save His countenance.”
12. A ZEALOUS, SELF-SACRIFICING COMMUNITY KNOWN AS A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY BUT WORTHY OF BEING CALLED “MUSLIM CHRISTIANS,” WILL WORK TO UNITE THE TRUE RELIGION OF JESUS (Upon whom be peace) WITH THE REALITY OF ISLAM and will kill and rout that society of the Dajjal under the leadership of Jesus (UWP),…
13. Pg. 13 vs. 6 It says in a narration in connection with Jesus (Peace be upon him) killing the Dajjal: “THE DAJJAL WILL HAVE A COLOSSAL FORM, HE WILL BE EXTRAORDINARILY BIG AND TALLER THAN A MINARET, WHILE JESUS(PUH) WILL BE VERY SMALL IN COMPARISON.”
14. It is an allusion and sign that QUANTITIVELY, THE SPIRITUAL COMMUNITY OF MUJAHIDÊN WHO WILL RECOGNIZE JESUS (peace be upon him) AND FOLLOW HIM, WILL BE VERY FEW AND SMALL COMPARATIVELY TO THE ‘SCIENTIFIC’, PHYSICAL ARMIES OF THE DAJJAL (Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, The Rays: 5th Ray 16thMatter)
15. ….“He will be so powerful and long-lived that only Jesus (PUH) will be able to kill him; nothing else will be able to.”
16. THAT IS, IT WILL ONLY BE A REVEALED, ELEVATED, PURE RELIGION THAT WILL BE ABLE TO OVERTURN HIS WAY AND RAPACIOUS REGIME, AND ELIMINATE THEM”.
17. Such a religion will emerge among the true followers of Jesus(PUH), and it will follow the Qur’an and become united with it.
18. On the coming of Jesus (PUH)and EMERGENCE OF THE TRUE CHRISTIAN RELIGION, the Antichrist’s irreligious way will be wiped out and will cease. The Antichrist’s person could otherwise be killed by a mere germ or by influenza (Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, The Rays: The Fifth Ray – p.101)

30. O servants of Allah! Fear Allah: WHEN HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) APPEARS, ABANDON EVERYTHING AND RUN TO HIM BY ALL POSSIBLE MEANS because he ıs the calıph of Allah and my heir. (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 51, p. 65; Al-Hurr al-Amili, Ithbat al-Hudat, Vol. 6, p. 382)
31. If Allah permits you to see this, RUN TO SWEAR ALLEGIANCE TO HIM [FOLLOW HIM] AND NEVER ABANDON HIM.
32. IF YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL, NEVER ABANDON HIM IF YOU REACH HIM AND FIND THE TRUE PATH. Ah– and he pointed to his chest – how I long to see him.
33. LET NOTHING HOLD YOU BACK FROM SWEARING ALLEGIANCE TO HIM [FROM BEING HIS FOLLOWER, FROM FOLLOWING HIM] those who hold you back are those who have always sought refuge in corruption.
34. If they speak, they speak evil, and if they are silent, they are impious and perverse.(Sheikh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim Numani, al-Ghaybah al-Numani, p. 252).
35. Pg. 20 vs. 28The Prophet of God said: “During that time THE MOSQUES WILL BE BEAUTIFUL AND FLOURISHING BUT THEY WILL BE DEVOID OF GUIDANCE AND ENLIGHTENMENT.” (Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 2, p. 190.)

41. When our Qaim[Hazrat Mahdi (as)] appears, Almighty Allah WILL PROVIDE MEANS WHEREBY EVEN PEOPLE LIVING MANY MILES AWAY WILL BE ABLE TO SPEAK TO, SEE AND HEAR OUR QAIM FROM WHEREVER THEY MAY BE. (Mu’jam Ahadith al-Imam al-Mahdi, Vol. 4 p. 57 and Bihar Vol. 52 p.336).
42. One hadith states: ‘Hazrat Mahdi (as) will come. There will be a cloud just above his head. THERE WILL BE AN ANGEL THERE WHO WILL CRY OUT: THIS IS HAZRAT MAHDI (as), FOLLOW HIM…
