THE TWO FOUNDATIONS OF OUR EXISTENCE

THE TWO FOUNDATIONS OF OUR EXISTENCE AS WE APPROACH THE END 1 Preached on 30^th July, 2000 At the Household of God Onitsha By APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN © BRIDAL FAITH MINISTRY WORLDWIDE

I am the oldest man on Earth. I have reincarnated several times. I remain the only Being that can tell you how old the world is, believe it if youcan…

— THE SON OF MAN

An excerpt from the Message: EXALTATION AFTER TRIALS, PP. 3

We are almost there. Time and events will vindicate the Son of Man. I know that I make, from time to time, statements that are very hard to comprehend. I know that very well. Besides, I know that God is not saving you according to your level of comprehension. He will save you because He has already planned to save you. If there is anything you can contribute to your salvation, God cannot save you. You contribute nothing to your salvation. –Son of MAN

(WE ARE ALMOST THERE, PP14, VS 16.)

THE TWO FOUNDATIONS OF FAITH

It will be very difficult for people to believe that God can save heathens even without commanding them to be baptized in the Name of Christ our Lord. If God does not save some heathens even without commanding them to pass through the blood of Jesus, something has gone wrong somewhere. If you really know who God is and the meaning of the Almighty , you will realize that He saves whosoever He willeth.

Did the Prophet William Branham say that God will save some heathens? Yes. God will save whosoever He willeth. Do you know the number of people that were saved in Rehab’s house? Now, can’t you imagine that Rehab was commanded to take in as many as she wished: father, mother, relations and friends. If you were in her position and you received such supernatural command, who will you invite first? You know her business!
Do you think that when she extended that invitation to her parents, they took the Message seriously? Who do you think will take her words seriously? Her parents? Check your Bible. As many as were found in that house, they were called members of Rehab’s household: those that heard Rehab and honoured her invitation. But that is not all.
We will look into Scriptures in this Message and try to see what we can hold there. There is a face I have not seen here before. He may be the Ethiopian eunuch of our day. You know the history of the Ethiopian eunuch very well. All the way from East Africa across the Mediterranean Sea, across the Sahara desert. This is determination.
Emergency puts a man in desperation. God saw the sincerity of that man and sent Philip to go and meet the man on the way to give the man Salvation before he could get to the land of the Law. If God did not save the man along the way, he could have entangled with the Law because Jerusalem was the centre and city of the Law. All the efforts of the man would have been in vain. Knowing fully well that the man was a gentile and there was no way he could be saved by the Law, the Lord went ahead of time to wait for him.
Truth is truth. Do not turn round to blaspheme it. Whenever you see truth, acknowledge it to be the truth, although you may not be a part of that truth. Do not call it false. You do not blaspheme it. Still stand there. Even if you do not move an inch, remain there.
William Branham puts it this way that God will save some heathens for loving the people of God. God will save the heathens for loving the people of God, but if you hate God’s people, you have hated God.
Thus, anybody that is thrown away out of this Faith as a disciplinary measure, the idea is not to kill but to correct. It is scriptural, although the presence of the blood is not covering the person anymore, yet there is a Mercy Seat. There is an Advocate also. As long as the Advocate is alive, and you do not blaspheme, there is a little opportunity.
So far, I do not know any that is thrown away from the Faith, I can boldly proclaim that the person is lost, if not one or two, yet they are not completely lost. I know they are not yet completely lost. I know of that great Day when Salvation shall be made complete, somebody out of the lost might be or may be privileged to hear: “Father, forgive them for they do not know what they have done. They acted in ignorance.”
If they had known that He was their very last hope, the Bible said that they would not have dealt with Him treacherously. They would not have nailed Him to the Cross. They did it in ignorance. They did it out of blindness, but in the end love projected.
I think it is going to repeat in the Gentile land. That is why I have always told you: “Do not defend me anywhere. Whatever you hear people say about Me simply allow them to continue because it is their right. Constitutionally, it is their right. Say what you want to say, publish what you want to publish, I am the One to react. If I do not ask you to make a case for Me, remain still, for you are not wiser than I am. If I want to make a case, it is a matter of handing a document to a lawyer. If I do not want to go there, somebody may even like to show interest and that is useless nonsense.
As long as we are in this Salvation mission, somebody is bound to misunderstand your actions. But our eyes must be fixed on our target to make sure we achieve our objective which is redeeming the Elect. As many as love the Lord, they will always gather to worship Him at the right place. There is something I believe.
This promise God made which so many people have ridiculed will come at a time when nobody is expecting to hear anything. Everywhere is now calm. To some heathens in our midst, God has failed. To some heathens in our midst, there is no way we can be children of God hundred percent. It is a journey; an exodus.
As we journey along, people will be coming. Any nation we cross, some people will be coming in while some will be dropping. It is this time that you can expect Me to say something and what I am going to say will not be too far from what I have already said. I know that very well because if there is one that believes the Scriptures very well, I am the One. Denying the Scriptures means denying Myself and denying My God.

THE BRIDE HAS BEEN SEALED IN

A believer believeth the promises of God, for in God, they are yea and amen. Though it tarries, wait for it. I do not know how many of you who heard it. Bishop S.K Maazi was announcing it on Minaj Radio station that no soul will be saved and that no Church will make rapture until there appear in their midst five-Fold Ministry and I said, amen.
Paul Nwachukwu while ministering in “His Glory Cathedral” said, “I want to affirm it here that Salvation lies only in the Five-Fold Ministry.” They must acknowledge the truth when it is too late. Acknowledging it now when I am already on the scene is too late. It is last minute repentance. It saves nobody.
The Message we are preaching now is the Message to the totally lost. The Bride has been completely sealed in. Let me tell you what I mean by the Bride being sealed in.
You heard the testimony of Sister Charity. Something has already been sealed in her. In other words, her soul has already been raptured away, but the empty tabernacle is still somewhere there. When a man wants to get married, he runs mad. Many of you were finding it difficult to come to fellowship, especially in Onitsha. Other Churches outside Onitsha are better off than Onitsha Househld, for they have learnt to stay without My physical presence. For that reason, they are better off than Onitsha Church.
Any day I do not come to fellowship in Onitsha, many people feel disappointed. In other words, something is wrong with Onitsha Church. We have to address it seriously.
When somebody is excommunicated from this Faith, no Brother, no Sister has a right to pay the person a visit. This is because if you are visiting the person, you are comforting the person in unbelief.
I am aware that there are some in our midst that are wiser than the ministers that still pay nocturnal visits to such people. They know themselves. I will call your names the day I will throw you out.
Apostle Paul said that we should give God the glory and strength. Then the question arises: Can a man give God strength? The answer is yes. The Church is the strength of God. Without the Church, God is weak. He cannot perform. You are the power of God. You are the riches of Christ. You are the power of God. Without you, God is weak and can do nothing. The only instrument in the hand of God here on Earth, which God can use to do mighty works and shake the heavens and the Earth, is the Church. That is why the Church is holding the power that is shaking the Earth. As a result, you can give God strength.
At times, I wonder what the Psalmist was having in mind when he said, “Lift yours hands and bless the Lord.” I said what! A human being blessing the Lord?
Can a human being bless the Lord? The answer is yes! When we say, “Let us glorify the Lord,” understand that your glory gives God strength. Let Me tell you what I mean.
The strength of the masquerade is in the flute. If you want the masquerade to fly, give way for the flute. Allow the man to dictate and call him all manner of names with the flute. He will somersault. He can kill for he runs mad; so it is with God.
Even in the grave, Christ still remains the Lord. When He went to Hell, they shouted, “Who is this that is coming?” He said, “You do not need to shout. It is the King of kings.” Maybe you do not know that Christ went to Hell. Christ went to Hell and conquered. He fought death. Maybe, you do not know that it was for your sake that He tasted of death so that He might conquer death for you and Me. He suffered for you and Me so as to clear the way once and for all. That which the first Adam could not do, the second Adam came and He overcame.
Do not worry, I will be talking to you on “The Two Foundations Of Faith.” I am not talking to you on the Old and New Testaments, but by and by, there are two Ancients of Days. We will scratch them in this Message and know the Rock from where we are hewed. If we can trace that, at the end of this Message, we will rest. If we can trace that to a conclusive end, will you not be happy? I will be the happiest person so that I will be resting. I am telling you that a true seed of God rests; and the secret of his rest is this: he recognizes the Rock from where he was hewed. In other words, if he is going back, he cannot fit into any other rock.
My Redeemer liveth and I know He shall come on the last day and stand here upon the Earth (Job 19:25).
Who said that God is not a man? Maybe Job told lies that his Redeemer liveth, and he was sure and certain that He must surely come back here on Earth on the last day and stand here upon the Earth. Since He is one, and His Name in one, who can locate Him if He comes back, since Job is no longer here on Earth? Who will introduce Him to us? Who will cause us to recognize Him?
We must pray that God should forgive this generation. Can you imagine a situation where God has confirmed that Satan will rise up in judgment against this generation? The Devil will testify against us for not recognizing our God in our day.

I AM GOING TO MAKE ALL THINGS NEW

Nigeria has become the headquarters of the World, the New Jerusalem, yet people do not know it. I am going to make ALL THINGS new. The Bible did not say, minus this or that. Is that Scripture? “Behold, I am going to make all things new.”
Revelation 21:5 “And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.” (KJV).
In other words, everybody is watching. If you are watching, expecting to see that which you read from the Bible, you may be fooled. You see why it must take a spiritual man to understand the things of the Spirit. God is no longer referring to Jerusalem as a physical Jerusalem. That does not mean that He is not mindful of the physical Jerusalem. He is no longer looking at the Jews from the outside. He is not a Jew that is outside. He is not a Jew because he was circumcised or he has obeyed the Laws of Moses. What then makes Him a Jew?
Glory be to God that both the Jews and the Gentiles have one meeting point and when they come there, circumcision will be nonsense; nationality will be nonsense. What now takes over is faith on the Cross of Calvary. No more, no less.
Nobody is charging you a kobo in this Faith. If you come into this Faith, and after your proper investigation, you conclude that we are preaching error in this Faith, please, leave us. There are people that will be saved with this Message I am preaching that you call error. I will keep on preaching this Message you call error, even till eternity.
If you know any other way you can device to be saved other than the way I have shown to you, which no preacher on Earth has ever discovered, leave us and go there. There is no preacher under the sun that has known this way. They can scratch it a little like our Governor (Chinwoke Mbadinuju), who read our books and was with Me for at least three years. Thus, he knows Me very well. He knows My faith. He acknowledges My faith, but the little he had before I left, that was where he stopped.
When you think you have gathered enough from Me, you can start a movement and break away. I bet you, you can never go beyond that which you collected from Me. What is more, if you are not careful, it may even slip away.
People that left us, immediately after the camp meeting, they thought that they have known everything, that they had no need that anybody should teach them, but as we journeyed along, things you never knew, things that were not even revealed since the world began, were revealed to you. Many uncalled men of God, in short, all them, including St. Paul, created great hatred in the hearts of men against Esau.
Once Esau is mentioned, it will be associated with evil. Once the word “Edom” is mentioned, some people will say, “Stop calling the enemy.” You mention Leah, “Ah, the hated woman”, they will say; but as we journeyed along, things started coming out till our mouths were sealed.
God is doing all these things so that no flesh will come before Him and brag. At a time when you think you have arrived, God is still laughing at you, that you do not know anything.
I thank God for what He is doing in the Bride. Some people will just come up. They will forget what they were in the past. The little they have gathered in this Faith will puff them up with pride. They will be shaking their heads anyhow. If you must shake your head and brag, I better hire an aeroplane then.
I will be flying in the sky because you were nothing before you came to Me. You knew nothing before you came to Me. You were in error and you knew it not. YOU HAD THE ZEAL, BUT WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE. You were heading to perdition, but love projected. I came your way. You never sought Me for one day; I sought you. I searched for you and I found you.
For iinstance, look at Sister Ozioma; when she heard about Me she ran away. She came face-to-face with Me at My command. Since that day running away became very difficult. She never asked for Me for one day. I remember that good day I sent Brother Ben, who is her blood brother and Brother Okey and I said, “Whatever she is doing, simply tell her that that Man she heard of was inviting her.” That was the command.
When they went, they met her very busy and she gave reasons upon reasons. A little while, she entered her vehicle. On the way, Satan spoke to her saying, “Run away from them. Run away from these people; do not go with them.”
A little while, she changed her mind and drove straight to GRA and since that day, if you put her away from this Church, she will commit suicide. You see, things that were impossible for her to do have become very easy.
I believe a song. If the song writer of that song was sincere: something has happened to me; things I loved before have vanished away. Things I hated before have come to stay. In other words, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. I say, behold I make all things new. That does not mean resurfacing the Earth.
I want to see a bright and healthy Church – every Brother, every Sister looking bright, simple, sober, ever young, always renewing the Spirit of God in you, meek and lowly; everyday young; with babyface for everybody. This is the hand of God. Of all people on Earth, we are privileged to have that nature. Very soon Brethren that will be privileged to come to Church will be shocked when they see all grey-haired men turning young.

THE REALITY

In fact, the glory of the new temple is nothing to be compared with that of the first temple. What people see now and rejoice, ancient men saw it and weep. Look at this beautiful number; while we are trying to adopt our children, we have forgotten the tone; even the wordings have vanished away. Why? Through Grace, we have decided to adopt Sons and Daughters of God, even in their weakest estates, so as to identify their weakness and bring them in— that I have done now.
This is because every day, I want to remove that headache. What is that headache? Let no Pastor make the Church to think that the Sisters and little children are his problem. I decided to renew and refresh them to annoy some Pastors. If you go to the podium, preach the Word. Remain true and faithful; forget about their weaknesses. These things have been taken care of, but as for Me, no problem.
You know, I am easily accessible to them. I know that I shake hands with over one hundred Brothers in a week; but I sparingly shake hands with Sisters. I sparingly touch Sisters. They equally sparingly come to Me. Thus, Brothers have no problems. They are standing on a firm foundation. if they should err, God has erred; so, you have no problems.
The Bible did not say that woman is the image of God, rather, the man is the image of God, but the woman is the image of the man. The covering of the woman is the husband. The Bible is as clear as the day. Why should you bother yourselves with ordinary image? I am not talking about the image; I am talking about the reality. That is why we must cherish the images any how; love them anyhow.
Anywhere I go, I must preach it, because, I have proved it with some other strong men in this Faith. Please, do not think I am funny. I am not. I want to bring out something.
In every dispensation, each time God comes down, the people that identified God that day, wear His cloak in all respects.
Can you imagine, William Branham died in 1965, up till today, those that are still in his ministry are in a glare of another dispensation, yet they know it not. Before William Branham died, he espoused all he was leaving behind to a Ministry, gave them indicators to identify that Ministry and even announced it loud and clear in his Message, saying, “You know we are no longer in the Laodicea Age; we are now in the Bridal Age; an age away from Laodicea, and there is a Ministry coming that will usher all of us into that bride.”
There was no mistake about it. I am saying that he died in 1965, till today, those disciples of Moses still cherish his candy. He had a special type of candy he was eating and the people loved William Branham and loved that candy. Till today, they still send it even to Nigeria. Ministers will gather and eat William Branham’s type of candy. I now have gagaraga tea (alfalfa tea). It is not found anyhow.
You know, Brethren have so monitored my food that they can just run around and get it. That was just why I went to Nsukka, they served Me with their tea, I said, “no.” They do not know what I drink these days. That one will make Me weak. Some people said that I was looking like a baby. I said, yes that there was a secret behind it. From now, you will not see grey hair on my head, no wrinkle, it is cheerful baby face from now; smooth body and all.
I am telling you the truth I know because if you are waiting on the Lord your strength will be renewed daily. You can never be old. Age will never be telling on you because, age is a matter of the mind. If you think you are old, you are old. How can I be old when I am in Christ? I cannot be old. My strength will daily be renewed.
Onitsha Brethren will be looking strong always, but be careful when you are looking strong.
We now want to farm in His vineyard fully. You know I am a human being like you. I cherish good things like you also. If you are suffering; I am suffering also. If you are enjoying, I am enjoying too. Whatever you think you are passing through, I am passing through the same experience. There is nothing extraordinary about it, but some of you think you are the only people God has given the privilege to enjoy this life. No! The Son of Man has the right to enjoy the life also. I am not telling lies. Unless you want Me to die quick. That is wisdom.
You know what I mean? Very soon, you are all going to wear a new look because, “Lo, I am going to make all things new.” Any moment from now, we shall all be putting on a new look. It can be now, it can be tomorrow. It can be any time, but I know it is closest to our door, and you know what that new look will be with the eyes of faith. Somebody has peeped into it. If it is not scriptural, there is no need waiting for it. However, if the promise is in the Holy Scriptures, surely, we are not waiting in vain.

EVERY MAN OF GOD REQUIRES A QUIET HOUR

God is hastening up action. Bear with Me because I am going to sound foolish now to some people. Let Me sound a warning here. I am not trying to avoid any of you. I love you. I cherish you. If you hear that I am going to handle a Message and you know you are going to benefit from it, the only favour you will do Me is to keep away from Me within that period and hold your problems back, however, you can go to your Elders.
If you feel your Elders cannot meet your demands except I intervene, hold it until that time is over. When I am about handling a Message, I try to avoid even my own very wife. I stay away for some time to enable Me recoil and you know I love you.
You cannot come to my house and I abandon you and go away. My conscience will prick Me. You cannot come with your problem and I order you out, no! It is not good. When you are coming in and you are hovering around Me, surely, you are weakening Me. We keep on romancing ourselves, day in, day out. The end result will be that the Message will not come up again.
There is no preacher that does not require a quiet hour. Under the old dispensation, Martin Luther, John Wesley, William Branham and the rest of them, they were living in isolated areas. William Branham had a cave where nobody enters. His wife entered it once. His own son, Billy Paul, entered it once. The only time they saw it was the hour he died and the cave collapsed. Everybody had access to the cave. Those that were privileged to get his writing table immortalized it. Some filed his holy Bible. Even some scripts he placed on the table before he died, they filed them. Some laid hands on them and immortalized them. Thus every man of God, no matter how the Spirit of God is using that man requires a quiet hour. Amen.

WHERE ARE WE BRETHREN?

For some time now, I do not have a single quiet hour. Brethren were rushing from East and West, North and South; you know all I passed through.

We have a book titled: “This Generation in Prophecy.” Somebody might be thinking that this book has lost its meaning. From the way I have been hearing some people talk; the way I have seen them react and behave, I feel very bad. I noticed that some have gone back into the world fully. They now have another spirit.
Note, Heaven and Earth will pass away, but there is no word that proceeded out of My mouth in this book (This Generation in Prophecy) that will pass away without being fulfilled. I have lifted it up before you because it is going to condemn many of you. Some of you because of the troubles you have been having in the flesh; troubles you have been having in your homes: it could be financial problems, it could be sicknesses, it could be persecution or joblessness, you were praying that rapture will come and carry you to an unknown destination where the troubles will be over.
You even believed more than what the Bible promised you. You were even expecting things I never taught you; things that are not even written in the Bible.
Note, I am not going to sound strange; I am going to sound foolish. I noticed that this book was read by a lot of us in this Faith with strong anxiety because of the problems of that hour which was the wild orchestrated millennium bug, computer failure; and as many as were reading this book, instead of reading what the Holy Spirit inspired Me to tell the whole world, they were focusing their attention on newspaper excerpts. Many of you in this Faith did not go beyond newspaper excerpts. You were picking your interest areas, thereby bypassing and deliberately neglecting the Word of God that is meant for you.
I want to show you something in that book. Before I will exhort you using the Bible, I will show you things you do not know. I will start with the introduction because we are approaching the end and because we are approaching the end, it is My duty to alert the Elect so that they will rally round those that have gone astray that they may have the opportunity to come back.
I am sending my last signal to all the Elect. If there is anytime they should come back and line up with the revealed Word of their day, it is now. When you hear the word of God harden not your heart.
I am starting with the caption: “The Voice of the Watchman,” from number one to number ten. “Fellow mortal men: do you know that this generation will come to an end?”
Almost everything contained in that leaflet (book) there are all questions; unanswered questions which we attempted to answer, but I will repeat the questions because you know the answers.
“A) Fellow mortal men, do you know that this generation will come to an end very soon?

B) Can it pass away without God passing judgement in favour or against this generation?

C) Are there generations that passed away before this our generation?

D) Did God pass judgement in favour or against those generations before they passed away?

E) Did all human race survive those generations that passed away or were only a few people saved?

F)Did God provide a place of safety for each of the past generations for the safety of His people?

G) Has He provided a place of safety for His people in this generation that is passing away?

H) What are the end time events that are made clear by prophecies by which we can lay hand and affirm that we have surely come to the end of this generation?

I) What will be the fate of mankind in this last generation?

J) The Truth about the predicted 72 hours of global darkness before the end of this generation.” This Generation in Prophecy (page 4).

Let us see the Introduction: “End time events prophesied. God has passed judgement against our generation. 72 Hours of Global Darkness before the End Of This Generation. God’s Chosen Place of Worship. Confirmation of the Church; Confirmation of Souls of the Members of the Church. CIA predicts Global Systems’ Crash. 1999 the Beginning of the End. Final appeal. Is the End Of The Generation A Secret? A song to God’s Glory for His Great Move in Our Midst. Time magazine: Global Report.”
Ponder here (This Generation in Prophecy, page 8): “For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.” (Jeremiah 4:22-26 King James Version).
We have a more sure word of prophecy. Since Jeremiah prophesied this Message from the Lord and died, has there been any event that has rendered the Earth desolate? No. Has this prophecy fulfilled? No. You see, by the time I will go back to the Scriptures to talk to you in this Message, you will know where you have left your God. The essence of talking to you is to bring you back.
If I do not use the Bible, you will not know that you have left the Faith and the only thing you know is dancing and clapping hands. Yes, dancing and clapping hands are good, but you are a people of God as long as you continue in His Word, but the moment you are removed from His Word, God is removed from you. If you abide in His word, you are His disciples in deed.
Really, I want to show you something. Once I make My mark in your soul, I will stop.

WE ARE AT THE END

Now, let us go over to the Introduction in the book titled THIS GENERATION IN PROPHECY. “Whatever has a beginning must have an end. Some years ago, people were thinking and seeing the year 2000 afar off. But today, it is only but a step between all mankind and the year 2000 which automatically marks the end of this generation. We are no longer counting in years but in months.
In spite of this, it still baffles the Watchman that the whole human race still behave as if God will extend this generation for them. If we had no 2001 years B.C. , how do you think there will be 2001 years A.D.?
All true children of God know fully well that we have only but Seven Church Ages and not eight and we are living in the Seventh Church Age which is Laodicea. After the Seventh Church Age, the next thing according to the Holy Scriptures is the ushering of the Bride of Christ into Millennium (One full and complete Sabbath rest of the Lord with His people).
The fact that all Newscasters in the Radio, Television, Newspapers and all free thinkers, now point people to the next Millennium, is a sure indicator that the world has become apprehensive of the passing away of this generation.
Let no man deceive you my friends, this generation will soon pass away like other previous ones but in a very disastrous and gloomy note like the previous ones.
The entire human race is sitting on a time bomb that will explode at a time that beats the imagination of all mankind. In other previous generations, only very few survived and this our generation will not be an exception.
The Almighty God provided a place of safety through the ordained Watchman for each generation that passed away and the same thing He has repeated again through His ordained Watchman for our generation.
I want you to remember that the Watchman of each of the previous generations were despised, mocked, laughed at and treated with contempt and disrespect and the chosen place of safety was the greatest stumbling block hence many people could not believe they could find refuge in the Watchman and the place of Safety. But every Elect of God, who is always a part of what God is doing in his day, finds no difficulty in obeying God’s Voice for his day.
If after going through this Voice of the Watchman for the hour, you are convinced that is the Voice of God to all mankind, please, request for our free publications: “Cry out against the System,” “Hard Truth,” The Last Trumpet,” “Behold the Man of Sin,” and so many other books by the Bride of Christ Ministry worldwide. They will be mailed to you free of charge.
May the God of revelation, reveal to you the hour we are living in so that you will escape His wrath.
This is not the time to play religion or to be entangled with the politics that is associated with religion. It is a time for action.
God is no respecter of persons or association. Your denomination is meaningless as far as this matter is concerned. There is no reasonable excuse before God. You cannot blame your Pastor or Overseer on this matter. This is purely a personal matter with your Maker Who has passed sentence on our generation because of widespread evil as He did to other past generations that existed before our own.
This matter is not negotiable. There is fire on the mountain, The Lord is making a speedy riddance upon the Earth and no flesh shall be saved except those that have received Him Whom He has sent and have taken refuge in the only place of safety He has chosen for all His elect.
Your position in the Society or Church means nothing in this matter. Your Silver and Gold will be useless nonsense. Whoever that is not found hiding in that chosen and approved place of safety, surely shall be destroyed whether great or small.
Make haste. Do not resign your fate to nature. Believe the last Voice of the Watchman God has given to your generation. Although he is despised and rejected by many, Yet he has remained the mouthpiece of God in these last days.—THE WATCHMAN.
There is a reason why I revisited all these things in this Message. If you turn to page 20 of the publication, you will see prophecies relating to the future. There, you will notice prophecies that have not come to pass. It also continues in page 21.
NOW, I AM SAYING AND COMMANDING AT THE SAME TIME THAT YOU SHOULD GO BACK TO “This Generation in Prophecy” without delay. Why? I have gone through it and prayed over and over and I am sure and certain we are at the end.
“This Generation in Prophecy” page 18, verse 38: “God Himself investigated things for Himself and after His findings; the city of Sodom and Gomorrah were billed for destruction. However, one should note very well that God’s Messengers declared the end of the city even ahead of time to God’s own elect in that age before the destruction and end of that city came.”
Is that true? It was supported by the Bible.
Verse 41-43 : “I am saying that God in His Mercy and love had always announced the end of every passing generation to the people of that generation regardless whether they will pay heed to the warning Voice of God or not.
Before the city of Jericho was brought to an end and destruction, the messengers of God equally announced to the elect of God in that city (Rehab and her father’s house) as recorded in the book of Joshua chapter 2. God declared the end of very many nations in the Holy Bible because God hardly condemn any nation or individual without first of all warning that nation or individual.”
Is that not true? Have you not read it in history? I will soon take you to William Branham to show you about the Roman Calendar and the Egyptian Calendar and then, I will take you into the Bible for you to see what God has always done every 2000 years.
“Historians have always told us that every two thousand years there is always a great event upon the face of the Earth. My question is, what great event do you expect to happen during this fast approaching year 2000?
We know that the World is about to reach her sixth thousand years since Creation. From Adam to Noah was two thousand years, and from the time of Noah to the time of Christ’s first Advent was two thousand years. Now we are counting our dates within the year of the Lord (Christ) which is in Latin word “ANNO DOMINI” (A.D.) By our Calendar we have it that from the birth of our Lord Christ till date, the World has lasted 1999 years and some fractions of months. Can this Jesus’ generation come to an end without God passing judgement upon it?

END TIME EVENTS PROPHESIED

Another caption: “End Time Events Prophesied.” Did God prophesy of end time events; things we can see and believe that we are at the end or nearest to the end?
“Let us look further into the Holy Bible and consider some events in this end time that will help open ones eyes of understanding to know that surely we have come to the end of this generation.
Increase In Travelling And Education:“But Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal it up so that it will not be understood until the end times, when travel and education shall be vastly increased!”(Dan 12:4 LB).
Now, hear the comment from the Watchman. Compare it with what is prophesied. ‘When Prophet Daniel inquired to know when the vision given to him will be fulfilled, the angel of God told him that it will happen at the end time. The angel gave a clear indication on how to know when the end time is come. He revealed that there will be increase in knowledge, education, science and increase of men travelling to and fro to various parts of the globe.
Even the least learned person today knows very well that there has never been a time when men travelled round the globe than this generation,’ true or false? Did your fathers travel the way you are travelling today? Has there been any time in the history of mankind human beings travelled the way they are travelling today? Somebody can attend a wedding ceremony in London and come back to Nigeria the same day. In the days of your fathers was it so?
“Quest for education has increased so much that provision has been made for adult education,” true or false? It is true. “We can now boast of teenage graduates,” true or false? Somebody can now graduate before the age of twenty. But in the days of your fathers, at the age of twenty they are just starting elementary one or standard one. Advance in science endeavour is very clear. Therefore, we can rightly say that knowledge has increased according to the holy Bible for we are at the end time.
Is there any other time this prophecy of Daniel is coming to pass except in our day? It could not come to pass in Daniel’s day. When he inquired about the time we should expect these things, the Holy Spirit said: “Seal it up. Keep it as a secret until at the time of the end.”
Now, we see these things coming to pass in our day. Where are we Church? Surely, we are at the end time. Can we rightly say that surely this prophecy has come to pass? I believe this prophecy has come to pass in my day. There is no other age I am expecting this prophecy to be fulfilled. At least, I am a beneficiary. I have one of my daughters that will enter Class 2 at the age of 9.
At the age of 9, most of us did not know anything called primary education. But one of my daughters will be in class 2 at the age of 9. Somebody may doubt it, but I thank God that many of you know the year she was born. I call it education madness. But the Scripture fulfilled there. Your children now enter nursery school at the age of one year and one year and ten months. Some two years. Was it so in your early days? I mean at the age of three, your own child may be reciting ABC; counting 1,2,3 to 10 or 20. Was it so in your day?
Many of you entered secondary school with grey hair. It is applicable to travelling, yet the generation has not come to an end, but the Bible said: “When you see all these things, know that you are already at the end of the age.”
You are already at the end of the age. I told you that it is just like somebody watching a film. When you keep on watching the film, you will be shouting and screaming. At the time when the film is becoming interesting, you will see “The End” on the screen. The whole thing will become blank. This is what is about to roll on the spiritual screen.
Anytime from now, the Church screen where we have been watching the whole thing as a drama will roll 7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 so fast that it will not give you a breathing space.
Now, you believe that events are made clear by prophecy and these Prophets of God had the Spirit of Christ in them. They did not tell lies. As many as were living in Daniel’s Age, they were thinking that these things will come to pass in their day.
Note, any group of people that were privileged to live in the day of any prophecy was hopefully expecting the prophecies to come to pass in their day; so, it continued until the day of William Branham. All that were hearing St. Paul’s preaching were thinking that they and St. Paul will be caught up in the air, but St. Paul told them clearly that: “We that are alive will remain,” including himself. He went further to encourage them to hold on steadfast that their Salvation was nearer to them than when they first believed. Some were thinking that by the following week, the thing will be over.
However, St. Paul was not the Bridegroom and he was not there when the Bridegroom appeared on the scene to decorate the Bride. You do not talk of wedding; forget about wedding.
Can a woman wed herself? There was no way the Church could be wedded without the Bridegroom appearing. First of all I am expecting the wedding day song. Increase in population, crime and corruption, immorality, women preaching and social activities are rampant. You want to crosscheck it? Go to St Luke 17:26-35.
As it was in the days of Noah and Lot so shall it be in our generation. There was a warning that says: “Remember Lot’s wife.” This has been ringing bell in the Church at Onitsha for some time now. Jesus likened this generation to Noah’s and Lot’s generations. For this reason, we have to go further and see some events that took place in both Noah’s and Lot’s day to ascertain whether the end time generation which Jesus likened to Noah’s and Lot’s generations have actually come.
Now, if you go back to Genesis 6: 1-8, you will see Noah’s day: “When mankind spread all over the world, girls were being born…” Some of the heavenly beings saw that those girls were beautiful and there is no other age that has outclassed our age in beauty, for Satan has manufactured every kind of make-up.

THIS GENERATION IN PROPHECY AND SEVEN SEALS OF WILLIAM BRANHAM

The heavenly angels will start desiring them and will be taking them one by one as they wish. Somebody can be dark in the morning, white in the afternoon and red in the night. Thus, they took delight in the ones they like. Then the Lord said, “I will not allow people to live forever; they are mortals. From now on they will live no longer than hundred and twenty years.”
In those days and even later, there were giants on the Earth who were descendants of human women and the heavenly beings. They were great heroes and famous men of long ago. When the Lord saw how wicked everyone on Earth was and how evil their thoughts were all the time, He was sorry that He ever made them and put them on the Earth. He was so filled with regret that He said, “I will wipe out these people I have created and also the animals and the birds because I am sorry that I made any of them,” but the Lord was pleased with Noah.
Did He wipe them off? Now this was the picture of Noah’s day. Men were following men anyhow as they wished because the women were extremely beautiful, very attractive and the anger of the Lord was kindled upon human beings.
Concerning the days of Lot, before the guests went to bed the men of Sodom and Gomorrah surrounded the house; all the men of the city, both young and old were there. They called out to Lot and asked, “Where are the men who came to stay with you tonight? Bring them out to us, the men of Sodom want to have sex with them.” Gen. 19: 4 – 5 (GNB).
Homosexuals! Do we have them around? Yes, more than in the days of Noah. Now the Watchman went further to alert you. We can easily agree by the help of the Holy Scriptures that the end time, this generation must be like the days of Noah and Lot.
We have population problems today as in Noah’s day, true or false? True. We have increase in violent crimes as in Noah’s day and Lot’s day. Our women today with the help of make-ups and other cosmetic appliances look very fair and beautiful as in the days of Noah and Lot. Social activities like marriage are very much pronounced.
Please, please I want you to go back to the Message titled “This Generation in Prophecy” immediately. Another sure sign is the restoration of the fig tree, which is Israel, as one of the end time prophecies. These you will see and you will know that your redemption draweth near and it is even at your door step.
Israel is now restored to their home town and now there is controversy over Jerusalem. When they were scattered to all other nations, was there any controversy about the Jerusalem? No. It is scriptural. It is only when Israel is restored as a nation fully and the streets of Jerusalem will be blossoming with activities again. Only then will Jerusalem be enviable; nations round about Jerusalem will now envy the beauty of Jerusalem and then nations will now gather together to move Jerusalem. Jerusalem will be a burden to many nations.
When you see these prophecies coming to pass in your day, what do you do? First of all recognize what God said will be signs marking the end of your generation. Jesus prophesied and said that this generation will not pass away until all these things have come to pass.
Speedily, we can see Scriptures fulfilling, but a blind man, a blind Christian may think that nothing is going on simply because the roof is not shaking. Nobody is pursuing him from one place to the other. He concludes that, “Well, nothing is taking place again.”
If you are numbered among such people you are taking the greatest risk. Prophecies of God, William Branham said, never come to pass until they are being laughed at, until the Prophets are being mocked: “He promised that so, so and so will happen. Now, has it happened?”

RESTORATION OF THE FIG TREE – ISRAEL

If there is any publication we flooded with Scriptures to convince mankind that we have come to the end of this generation, it is the book titled “This Generation in Prophecy.” There is no statement made in that book without scriptural backing. For that reason, when you think that the Word of God is no longer coming to pass, you are as well denying God. There is no need holding the Bible or our Message. You just resign from the Faith of Christ and have your rest.
Another event you will see will be wars, rumours of wars, Earthquakes and pestilences. The re-emergence of the city of Jerusalem signals the end of the Gentile Dispensation. Is this Scripture? You can note it down.
St. Luke 21: 24: “And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of all Gentiles, until the time of the Gentiles be fulfilled.”
If you read another translation, Living Bible said, “They will be brutally killed by enemy weapons or sent away as exiles or captives to all nations of the world and Jerusalem shall be conquered and trampled down by the Gentiles, until the period of Gentile triumph ends in God’s good time.”
Has Jerusalem been restored as a nation? Yes. Have you ever heard since 1948 that any Gentile nation has ever trampled upon Jerusalem? No. No heathen nation can ever boast of conquering the nation of Israel in any war since they became a nation of their own in 1948, May 14th, rather than being conquered, we witnessed Israel humiliating her foes.
The six days war in 1967 against the Arabs was an eye opener to the world. It is the Word of God fulfilling. The Gentile days are over. They can never succeed in trampling over Jerusalem again because they have returned according to the prophecy of the Word of God. Many are not getting this Message.
Note, I am even passing judgment against you. If you do not follow Prophetic events, you will not know exactly the hour you are living in and as long as you do not know the hour you are living in, you will not know how to conduct yourselves. You will be behaving like the heathens living round about you.

TURN YOUR BACK ONCE AND FOREVER

Pentecostals have come to their end completely; there would not be any revival in the Pentecostal again. End time Message is no more. They just exist in a name; the centre can no longer hold, for there is no leadership. There is no Pentecostal preacher that will come up with any new Message again. Long, long time ago they have exhausted all they said they have. What they now do is formulation of ideas, racking of sense.
This idea of calling Holy Ghost twenty times, “Holy Ghost Fire! Holy Ghost Fire! Holy Ghost Fire!” is racking sense. It is an idea. Whatever they want to say, they will be repeating it up to twenty times. Anything they want to say in their prayers, they will repeat it seven times; sometimes fourteen times. That is useless nonsense. It goes to show that they are empty.
Tune in your radio set and hear them talk. They do not go beyond John 3: 16. The rest of the Scriptures will be the one you know before, showing you what the Bible said about your condition. How God will heal you; how God will make you the head and not the tail; how your enemies will be falling on the right hand and the left hand. That is all. Talk about the mystery of the Kingdom, they are blind to it. Talk of relating events with prophecies, they are blind to it.
Is there any Apostle in their midst? Any Prophet among them? They are worshipping God in ignorance, in blindness. There is not even one that can hear from God and talk to them. Thus, they are racking sense, but in this Faith, we do not rack sense; we espouse everybody to the Word of God.
If you are following events in your day and you are tying them with the prophecies in the Bible, you are keeping pace with God’s timetable. You are a wise man. That was exactly what the wise men did. They were following events, marrying them with prophecies. That was why immediately they saw the Star, without consultation, they headed the way of the Star.
When they got there, they said, “We have seen the Star and we have come to worship the King.” When they got to Herod, Herod even enquired of them to search the Bible; to tell him what the Prophet said will be the sign of the Messiah. Herod, himself had forgotten. While Herod was busy searching the Scriptures, searching the Prophets, the wise men were already in fellowship with the baby lying in the manger. It is repeating again.
Wise men among us are not sure that what we are saying is correct. They are still busy searching to know whether it is true, but the real Elect have been fellowshipping. They are fellowshipping with no other person than the person they have been espoused to. Not everybody is espoused to him.
Immediately, John the Baptist introduced the very Messiah, the Elect left John the Baptist and followed the Messiah. That did not break their relationship or friendship. They still loved John the Baptist, but to the extent of introducing them to whosoever would be the Messiah, they were looking for the Messiah and not John the Baptist, and John the Baptist was the Law, the school master, that only served one useful purpose: To introduce them to the Messiah.
Once John guided them to the Messiah, that was all they needed John for. The Law is holy, just and perfect only to the extent of guiding us as our school master to Christ. Once the Law has guided us to Christ, that is the end. It is no longer useful. It is discarded.
There were some other people that were following John. They were claiming to be the Elect also. No matter how John spoke to them, telling them he was not the Messiah and was showing them the messiah, telling them that he was Earthly while the man was heavenly, that he (John) was not the Bridegroom, yet they followed him anyhow.
When they were privileged to meet with the Elect worshipping with the Bridegroom, they ran back to John the Baptist, saying: “Sir, the same man you baptized; we were there when you baptized him, we met him baptizing some people that left us here again. Does it mean that the baptizing you gave us was not the real one? And they are telling us that their baptism with the man is better than the one we had with you. What can you say?”
Sincerely, John asked them to follow the man. Did they follow Him? No. Instead of agreeing, they were turning the pages of the Holy Prophets to know what the Prophets said because according to them when the very Messiah will come, nobody will know where he is coming from, nobody will know where he is living, but for this man, they know his hometown, they know his parents, his relations, they know where He is dwelling.
However, to the Elect, whether He came from Bethlehem, whether He is a son to Joseph or not, carpenter or not, to them, it is useless nonsense. They have seen what they are looking for; the only One that holds the Word of eternal life. They were sure and certain; not miracles, not thundering voices, not Earthquake, not wind, but One that will espouse them to the sacred Word; the only avenue whereby they can get a place among them that are sanctified.
We have such people in this Faith holding on strongly to John, claiming they are one of us, and these are the people that are drawing the hand of the clock back because the murmuring and complaining have always been wearing the Elect down.
Now my word to the true Elect is this: “Turn your back once and forever.” I said, turn your back against John; even if you hear that John is in the prison, go not; if you hear that John is beheaded, go not. You do not love John the Baptist more than Christ, do you? You are not related to John the Baptist more than Christ, are you? After all, John foreran the ministry.
Some of you think you believe William Branham more than Me. Some think they love William Branham more than Me. Some make noise about William Branham more than I do. They do not even know what he preached. They heard about Branham; they do not know we sat down and studied Branham. I am not telling a story, but I am trying to show you something. Amen.

WE ARE THE CLIMAX

We have end-time events; things you will look at, although they were prophesied long, long time ago. The only thing you keep your eyes on is the hour, the time, the prophecies will come to pass. The prophecy of the resurrection of Israel as a nation as prophesied by Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Isaiah lingered on until those generations passed away. It was only in our own generation, in the year 1948 that we saw scattered Israel coming back as a nation.

We saw Jerusalem being restored and the Bible said that you should learn a lesson from the fig tree when you see the leaves blossoming. What do you do? It is finished. Carry your luggage; the flight is near and is even at your door step.
There is one last sign and it is on now. I call it the LAST SUPER SIGN and you will believe it if I can show you from the Seven Seals as prophesied or revealed to William Branham, the Prophet. I will tie it with the Bible and I will tell you the mind of God in this Message about the matter. That is why I said you must know your timetable and where we are now. I think that is the essence of this Message.
If it is not what I promised, please correct Me. I hope nobody is coming believing that He is going to rapture? No! Already, I am raptured. When I open the Bible, you will see that you are already raptured. We are now in Christ’s Estate. We are already in Christ’s estate. If it is not scriptural, do not believe it. Keep it hanging until I show you the Bible.
I want to diffuse many things from your minds. “God Has Passed Judgment On Our Generation Like He Did To Other Generations.” That is page 33 in the Message titled “This Generation in Prophecy.”
When you go through it, it will be totally clear to you that we have committed atrocities more than the age of Noah; things that were unheard of in the days of Noah are being heard in our day and witnessed with our eyes. If it is not true, please correct Me.
Great things that never took place in the days of Lot are happening in our very eyes. That was why William Branham said that the evil that started in the days of Paul did not go away, but continued to increase with every coming age and the climax is Laodicea Age. In other words, the evil that started gradually in the days of Paul, continued gathering momentum until in our Age.
We are the climax. Everything in the Seven Church Age is in the climax; every type of evil that started in the days our forefathers, watch where we are now.
In the same way, there is acceleration in the way we die; everything moves fast, including death. Death rate in our day is the greatest; infant mortality rate in our day is the highest, yet medical science has increased in its highest form in our age. The level of science innovation in our age cannot be compared with what our father’s witnessed, yet the rate at which people die is by far greater than they were dying in those primitive days; everything signaling the end.
Please, even if you will not read any other thing, read completely from page 1 to page 150 of that Message. If there is anything that is not Prophetic which is not tied down to your day or tied to your day, please come to Me or go to any of your Teachers. If you are a minister and you are doubting anything, please come to Me.
Let us go to “72hours Of Global Darkness Before The End Of This Century.” Do we have a chosen place of worship? Is it scriptural? Now 72hours of global darkness has appeared in that book and it says, “Below is an extract from Body and Soul Magazine of 5th April 1999, page 4. Whatever that is said there is not My concern; My concern starts is the last paragraph.
“Throughout the entire holy Bible from Genesis to the Book of Revelation, there is not even a single place or verse showing that there will be three days of global darkness in the end time.” This is the Voice of the Watchman.
“Whoever that must have predicted or prophesied that there would be a three days global darkness before the end of this generation by the year 2000 must have caught up with a glimpse of the day of the vengeance of the Lord which has been in His heart. The truth about the global darkness is that it is one of the horrible events that will mark the end this generation. It is called the day of God’s vengeance or the day of the Lord.”
You can see it clearly in the Scriptures quoted in the Book. If there is something treated exhaustively, I think it is that particular place. I flooded Scriptures there to convince everybody that the Bible says that there will be a global darkness in all over the places in the end time. Have we ever heard one? We are waiting for one, but now you will see how it is going to take place.
From the Bible, I will reveal it to you so that when you are waiting for it as one of the signs, you will know that you are waiting for the great tribulation and the Bride will not pass through the great tribulation, for there is going to be an event that will drag down the darkness and when the event will be taking place, the Prophet said, The Church will no more be on the scene.
Will the Bride pass the great tribulation? The Prophet said, “To do what there?” What is she going to do there? He said, “No, no, no” and many of you that are waiting for the day when you will see it and then get ready. You are already blind. You will be taken away captive, yet you do not know it. That is why, the Bible said, “Walk while there is day, for the night cometh when no man shall walk.”
You are the children of the day and not of the night, but many of you are walking towards the night by your actions; you are heading towards the night. Only very few are still walking in the Light of the truth; some think they are walking in the Light of the truth, but they do not know they have muddled things up.
That is why some of them appeared very much confused. There are some in our midst that believe this Grace because we are saying it, but to balance it in the Bible, they cannot do it. To use the Bible and say, “I am standing upon my conviction in the word,” they cannot do that.
Even if you cannot search the Scriptures to find out these things, even if you do not know how to read and write, but you believe that which you are hearing from the Approved Vessel to be truth, God will bless you more.
Do you know My joy? I am following because the Captain of My Salvation, who has made My Salvation sure and perfect is always in the front of the battle. He is not staying behind and pointing Me forward; He is at the forefront of the battle. This is why I am always glad.
Let Me go straight away to something where many of you nearly killed yourselves. Remember, I have commanded you to go back to this book from the first page to page 150. Now, if you have the book, look at it.
The Watchman took His time to produce it with sufficient evidence. That was their greatest stumbling block: “The millennium bomb explodes midnight December 31st 1999; be sure your computer and other time dependent equipment are year 2000 compliant. For advice and solution contact N-com Abuja, “COVAT” CPN, COWAN-Lagos, COSY-Federal Ministry of Science and Technology and co.
I am not playing. You do not know why I am bringing these things fresh. The Watchman saw it, photographed it, engraved it in the book for the whole world to see and the signpost went round the whole world. The Watchman was not the man that pasted it. Knowing the truth about it, the next thing that followed was the Message. Watch the Message: “And the Lord said to Me: write My answer on a bill board, large and clear so that any one can read it at a glance and rush to tell others, but this thing I plan would not happen right away, but slowly, steadily, surely the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled.
If it seems slow, do not despair for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient. They will not be overdue a single day.” Habakkuk 2: 2-3 (KJV).
Now the next page (152) says: “CIA predicts global systems crash; computer stories by Enyinna Nwangwu communications editor.” Now the news from the CIA reports is contained in the book.
Now, hear the Voice of the Watchman after everything that is contained in that report. The Watchman said something concerning the matter. The fearful report is culled from the Nigerian champions newspaper of 25th march 1999 page 15.
All that is contained in that CIA report are not a part of our Message. CIA report is not a Message from God; 72 hours of global darkness before the end of the generation is not a Message from God. The Message from God is what you are hearing from the Watchman and what you are hearing from the Bible.
You must know the mind of God concerning the matter which is the mind of the Watchman. This fearful report is culled from the Nigerian champion newspaper of 25th march 1999 page 15. “From the CIA report,” did it say from the Bible? No. Did it say “Thus saith the Lord?” No. We are now talking about the CIA report.
“One can now clearly see the picture of the impending doom that is coming upon all mankind even before the year 2000,” because they said it is 31st midnight December 1999. “It is labelled THE MILLENNIUM BUG by the United Nations. It is called the also greatest time bomb of the age. Nobody can tell the expiration of any drug and its likely effect to health more than the manufacturers,” Is that not true?
When you are reading and studying God’s Message with wrong motive, you are doing more harm to yourself than good. Some of you that felt you know more read the book with wrong motive; some even read it with malice; some must have torn their own into pieces; some may not even know where they kept theirs any longer. I speak to your shame that you do not know the Scriptures and you do not even know how to follow your God.
Please, call for the Message: “My People Do Not Know Me.” Another Message is: “The Devil Will Testify against This Generation.”
Look at this excerpt from that book: “In the same token, nobody can accurately predict the failure of computer systems and its likely effect to the users more than the inventors.”
Is God the inventor of computer? Has God any hand in computer? Not even for one day. Thus, it will take the inventors to tell us the likely effect of what we should expect should it fail.
Now, look at the Message: “All that the Watchman is saying is that no individual or nation should take this matter light. It is a very serious Prophetic phenomenon that is being expected at the end of this generation or else the Bible is false.” Please, take note of it.
It is a Prophetic phenomenon. There is no way this generation will come to an end and the computer will exist. You are looking at the immediate crashing as fixed by United Nations and World Bank, but God is looking at it from the Prophetic angle; that every human knowledge, science, education, must come to a halt as one of the events marking the end of this generation.
I go further, “A lay man can only limit the use of computer to the ones that are being used in the business centers and the banks only. No. The use of computer goes beyond that,” as we could see from the CIA report. Remember, all along, we have been deliberating on CIA report and the impact on mankind.
I go a little further. “The answer is clear. The Almighty God programmed it so. From the Scriptures we read at the beginning of this book, we could see that it has been God’s eternal purpose to gather all the nations on Earth together and destroy them at a time because of willful disobedience to His sacred Word. Nothing has opposed the Word of God in this generation more than science; scientific discoveries through human researches have at times challenged the reality of God.
A lot of people have been misguided by science to the extent that they no longer believe in the existence of the Supreme God. Many laugh at His Word and strongly oppose His Prophets, quoting people they call great minds and thinkers.”
“O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called.” (1st Timothy 6:20, KJV).
Now, it is only a tree that hears that it will be cut down and it remains unmoved. By nature, no man or animal, no matter its size wants to die. When a human being hears he will be killed, surely, he must try to do something, try to justify his existence, even if he will be killed in the end after all his efforts. This is what great minds and thinkers are doing now.
These great minds and thinkers and scientists are the people that have put the world into trouble by hardening their hearts against the knowledge of God.
“What is the Watchman saying? I am saying that all human predictions will fail; no exemption; all human efforts will fail; all human knowledge and counsel will fail. God is only confirming and bringing to pass, the Prophetic words and predictions of His appointed Servant.”
“The Watchman of the generation, He alone knows the remediation, He alone can hear from the Father and speak to God’s people and the entire world, whether they will hear or not.”
“Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things ; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof.” (Isaiah 44:24-26, KJV).

GOD’S PROPHECIES ARE TIED TO TIME

Already, we have seen it in this Message that all human predictions must surely fail. Human efforts must surely fail. Then what is the noise about?
Scientists manufactured the computer, and they also predicted the failure of the computer. They are the people that tied our existence to their computer. When I say our existence, I mean our activities: so-called economic or commercial activities, medical care, education, everything, even communication all tied to computer. They predicted its failure, not God, but God’s own counsel stands sure.
God has predicted that in the end time, He is going to bring to naught, all scientific discoveries, including computer, telecommunication, everything science, all human wisdom and knowledge, God said they must come to an end and because God said it, there is no living being that can cancel it. No living being, even the Prophets from Heaven cannot deny its fulfillment. All you have to do is to wait for it, why? He said: “These things I predict will not come to pass immediately, surely, slowly, steadily, they will happen, but be patient.”
People were crying wolf and really there was wolf, but somebody helped in checking the wolf’s disastrous effect to mankind. Do you know how many billions of dollars the entire world spent to combat the computer problem? I was shocked when I read from the newspaper how America came together with Russia to plug in their war heads after making sure that they have made all their war heads Y2K compliant. Why didn’t they plug the war heads before finishing the job?
Do you know how many millions every bank that is existing today spent to bring in Y2K compliant computers? Just go into the banks and see them functioning, you do not even make enquires, those that are still using the old ones, do you know the problems they are facing? How many aeroplanes have crash landed as a result of system failure? How many cargo ships have sank as a result of system failure? How many Earth mines have exploded as a result of system failure? I mean those that were not made Y2K compliant.
There is no nation in the world that never spent billions. Do you know how many seminars Nigeria had to make sure that there was no wreckage? Up to this very moment so many aeroplanes have not taken their flights since the beginning of the year. They still remain grounded until they are made Y2K compliant, but that is not our Message.
Many preachers in this Faith carried CIA reports beyond the Message, instead of telling the Church what the Bible said as written in the Message by the Watchman, they over-blew the CIA report and went as far as even fixing or even confirming 31st December as the day they will fly away.
Did anybody declare, “Thus saith the Lord, rapture will take place 31st December 1999”? Any prophecy like that from anybody at all? No. I call it arrant madness on our side. I hope we have corrected that madness. Does it mean that God has failed in His Word? No. It must take a foolish man to think that way. If you do not believe that these things are going to fail anytime from now, you better not believe Scriptures at all.
I do not know why people believe Scriptures only when they have come to pass, but they find it difficult to believe those that are yet to come to pass. If you only believe Scriptures that have come to pass, surely, you will enter into the great tribulation because you will end it not making preparation until the rain has met you.
A wise man purchases umbrella before the rainy season; he gets an umbrella during the dry season. Many are going to embrace this Faith as foolish virgins because of their selfishness. I have never come across any Scripture in the holy Bible prophesied by the holy Prophets that will not come to pass as predicted, not even one for God’s prophecies are tied to time.
If you lay hand on any you think will not come to pass bring it to Me. I will tell you when to wait for it for it has not come to pass because the hour that is fixed for it has not yet come and you would not know the hour until you know the events that were predicted that will be associated to it.
There must be certain events that will be associated with the fulfillment of any Prophetic Scripture. A Prophetic utterance does not come out like that.
Let Me tell you what I mean. Joel prophesied the last days. Joel told the whole world what will be seen, which will mark the beginning of the last days. Immediately on the Pentecost day Peter saw these things coming to pass; Peter prophesied again confirming that these things were coming to pass according to the prophecy of Prophet Joel. For that reason, do not be surprised that the Prophet predicted that these things will mark the beginning of the last days.
From the day of Pentecost till today, we are still in the last days. Now, if the last days have a beginning, the last days must have an end. Somebody announced the beginning of the last days, equally, somebody will announce the end of the last days and it will take the very Elohim Himself that will be back in human form in the Bride to announce the end of the last days.
Who will bring Gentile dispensation to an end? The Bridegroom. This is because He is the One that will wait in His Church. Many of you are behaving as if they are going to be presented to somebody else. How do you think Christ will prepare you and present you to the Devil?
The Bible said that Christ will prepare His Church, adore His Church and present her unto Himself. Check your Bible, it says He will present her as a glorious virgin, not having spot nor wrinkle, but some foolish people think that such thing will be presented to Paul Nwachukwu or Benson Idahosa.

THE YEAR 1999 THE BEGINNING OF THE END

“The beginning and the end indeed; culled from Sunday Tribune, 28th February 1999,” it said, “All the nations in the world must condemn the last action Israel will take against Palestine.”
This is a Prophetic statement. It drew My attention. “Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but My Word shall not pass away.” Mathew 24 vs 35 (KJV).
Mankind, believe it or not, the year 1999 is the beginning of the end of this generation. It is a must because the SEVENTH DAY belongs to God. It is God’s Sabbath rest which He promised perpetually. It is a period of rest for 1000 years. The survivors will not know any war or rebellion within that period of 1000 years. It shall be a period of peace on Earth.
Is that not Scripture? Okay. 1999 is the beginning of the end indeed. It did not say 1999 the end. This is the Voice of the Watchman. It is not mine. The Watchman was confirming that 1999 was the beginning of the end of this generation indeed. In other words, from 1999, we have rolled into our INJURY HOUR. From now Scriptures will be fulfilling greatly and the thing that is blinding many of you is this: you do not know that when Christ was born, over 40 Scriptures were fulfilled in one second.
There are too many things you read in your Bible and you think they will be fulfilling one after the other. You do not know that in a twinkling of an eye, for one particular event that will take place here on Earth, over 1000 Scriptures will be fulfilled. One single event, all that Isaiah said, Jeremiah said, Ezekiel said, Paul wrote, Peter confirmed, all of them will come to pass in just one second, but reading the Bible the way you are studying it, you will think it will be fulfilling one after the other, no.
The death of Christ on the cross of Calvary, over 1000 Scriptures came to pass in one second starting from Genesis to Revelation. Note it, 1999 is the beginning of the end indeed. Many things are taking place taking us to the end of the Message. The Message is ending anytime from now. If you like believe it; if you like throw it away.
In page 194, verse 27, the Watchman said: “All the nations in the world must condemn the last action Israel will take against Palestine and they will join themselves together under the United Nations Treaty or Accord and attack Israel including America and Great Britain. This is the long awaited Armageddon War where God will display His supernatural authority and power over all the nations of the world. This is not the matter at stake for now, please.”
Why is it not the matter at stake? Anybody that witnesses this event is entering into the great tribulation. If you are a Christian and you are in this Faith and you happen to live in the day this will take place, forget about putting on immortality and forget about the Promised Land which is Paradise. Already, you are in Hell.
William Branham was asked a question in a Message titled: “The Purged Church,” what the position of the foolish virgins was; whether they will be saved at last. He said, “How can they make it if they couldn’t go in with the blood of Jesus?” One person asked him a question: “Do you mean they are lost?” He answered, “Yes; that is what I mean. The Bible said so. When the door was locked, it was not opened again.”
Now, Brethren, if you finish that area, the next thing you will get there, it has nothing to do with our Faith; it is clearly written in the book, the excerpts from the International Time Magazine of January 1999 are included in the book for you to see the various efforts people are making to escape the wrath of God. That is Time Magazine. It is not our write-up and the aim of including it is to show you efforts human beings are making to escape the wrath of God which you know are useless efforts.
Some do not even believe that the wrath of God is coming again. If you do not believe that the wrath of God is coming again, why are you worshipping God? Why are you in the Church? You had better stay at home. The wrath of God is swiftly coming and already we are in it gradually. WE HAVE ENTERED OUR SPIRITUAL SQUEEZE and the way things are going now, if it is not cut short for the Elect’s sake, nobody will be a child of God come the year 2001, 2002; if there will be anything like that and you witnessed it. You cannot be a child of God again.
Thus, the Lord must surely do something as He promised to cut it short for the Elect’s sake, otherwise, no flesh will be saved because what is coming upon us from now will be so much that nobody can bear it. There is no amount of fasting and praying that can save you there. Many of you will even deny the Faith.
You are having problems already when there is no trouble around you. Wait a little. We are coming to something. It is a matter of few years from now many of you will even find it difficult to eat. Your eyes will turn red more than ever. People will start blaspheming God more and more.
Now, I am saying that if you do not have a copy of the book titled “This Generation in Prophecy, please make sure you have one. If you have it and you think you have read it, you are fooling yourself. Go back and start afresh. You have not read the book.
The Almighty God wants you to know the contents of the book. That is why it was first of all given to you to read before giving it out. You were charged, He (God) said, “Read it. Make the contents a part of your being; be acquainted with Prophetic events as prophesied in the Holy Scriptures.” Take in every bit of the Message and then be on alert.
There is not one Word that comes out of My mouth that is written here that will fail. If you like believe it, if you like disregard it. Time is going to vindicate Me very soon. There is no utterance that came out of My mouth in that book that is not a scriptural utterance; that is not backed-up with Scriptures. Hence, denying its fulfillment means denying the Bible and if you deny the Bible you better leave us. We are in the Faith because we are holding unto the Bible.
Many of you are holding unto your human ideas. Some are even holding unto the things they hear from their radios and televisions Messages, newspaper publications. We are doing well by reading them; I was reading them before you showing you preparations people are making; how serious they were taking the trouble and then showing you the only way of escape because, by and by, the thing they think they have averted, the trouble is still there. Has God changed His mind towards science? No. Has God taken side with scientists? No. Amen. Very soon, sooner than you think, you will see what is going to take place here, now let Me see whether I can get this sermon book. We want to make comparisons before I go to the Scriptures. I hope I am not disturbing you? If you feel I am disturbing you, you go away. I am not begging you to stay, but when you feel I am disturbing you, go away.

WHERE ARE WE AT?

Now I want to note it very well. This is the Message you have been hearing from William Branham. It is titled: “There Is a Man Here That Can Turn on the Light”. I am not expecting anybody coming to take Me away, but I am only waiting for the promised day when I shall be clothed with immortality with Him.
“Listen, IF the Roman calendar is right,” “if”. You see, historians have always fooled us. They say every 2000 years there is a great event on Earth. “What other great events are you expecting if not the ushering in of the Bride of Christ into rapture and the coming of the wrath of God? The Bride will not be on the scene to be partaker of God’s wrath, do you know that?
That same day Lot was taken away, fire and brimstone ravaged the city of Sodom and Gomorrah. Immediately Noah was secured in the Ark, the wrath of God descended. Immediately Rehab was secured, the wrath of God descended. Is that not Scripture?
“If the Roman calendar is right, we have got thirty six years left. Every two thousand years, the world comes to her end.” Please underline it.
Many will say William Branham told lies. It is because you lack the Spirit of God. Look at the language he used: ‘The world comes to her end’, as if every two thousand years the world comes to an end and another one comes up. The world there was referring to a generation, an age or a dispensation. Every two thousand years, there is always an end of a dispensation, age or generation.
There is a new generation, another age, but when you watch the whole thing, one overlaps into the other. The people that survived in Noah’s day entered the next age; so it continued. Those that survived in Moses’ day rolled into Christ’s age. It has been like that. So when you hear the Prophet saying: “The world comes to her end every two thousand years,” do not say when did the world come to an end? From the day God created the world till now, the world has never come to an end. The age of Noah was destroyed, but that was not the end of the world. Noah remained with his family and then replenished, but the world will come to an end one day. That is not what I want to discuss here now.
“Every two thousand years, the world comes to an end. The first two thousand years, destroyed by water; second two thousand years Christ came. This is 1964 coming up, 36 years now, the Egyptian astronomical calendar said, we are 17 years out; it is 17 years a past, from that, that would leave 19 years left. Jesus said the work will be cut short for the Elect’s sake or there will be no flesh saved. Where are we at?”
Look at what the Prophet was trying to say: 1964 + 36; that will give 2000. Then, 17 plus 19 will give us also 36 years according to the Egyptian calendar. This is the Roman calendar. The truth of the whole matter is that the Prophet was trying to use both the Roman and Egyptian calendar to put his Message across that this generation surely will come to an end by the year 2000. The end of this generation does not mean the end of the world.
In other words, everybody should expect a supernatural occurrence in the year 2000. Something is going to take place to mark the end of that dispensation. It is not Christ coming now. Something higher than that will take place to mark the end of that dispensation and that thing must be promised in the Holy Scriptures.
Tell Me anything you know other than the catching away of the Bride and the wrath of God? Tell Me any other thing you have read from the Scriptures you are expecting if not these two and these two will take place in one day, in a twinkling of an eye. In other words, in that one day of 24 hours, God has only but one second.
Note, all these years, we have been moving about rejoicing God has only but a day; in that one day, He has only a second. If the world has lasted for 2000 years or is going to last for 2000 years, God has only but one second in the 2000 years. The rest belongs to us.
YOU ARE LIVING IN AN AGE THAT IS GOING TO TERMINATE ABRUPTLY, IN A SECOND. Since you do not know the day, you do not know the hour, how can you know the second? If it is not scriptural, please do not believe. The Bible said we shall all be changed in a twinkling of an eye. Is that not one second? That is all.
Since you do not know the month, you do not know the week, you do not know the day, how can you know the second? Even if you know the hour, how can you know the second? We have 60 seconds in one minute. That is to say that the thing is narrowing down gradually. This is to show you that anybody that goes about playing religion thinking that all is well with him because he is in the Bride Ministry has missed the mark. Many of you are wiser even than the preacher.
Now, William Branham spoke about 2000 years, the Watchman spoke about 2000 years, any contradiction? We will be pleased to go the Bible also. When we enter the Bible, we will find out whether what we are preaching is scriptural or not. If it is scriptural, you better be patient and keep watch, but if you go about playing and talking nonsense, be sure that you do not commit suicide.
The same water that saved Noah is the same that killed as many as did not keep pace with Noah’s Message. The Message of Noah was the Message of life for that day, but as many as could not believe it, something terrible took place.
Now, you follow Me as we go into the Scriptures. Somebody might be saying, “What have you been doing all this while?” I have been talking. You want to know what I have been doing all this while, I have been talking. “When will you start reading the Scriptures?” Anytime I want. “What you are going to read from the Bible is it different from all they have been saying?” No.
Do not think I am fooling here. These things are all taking place among you right now, but He that owns it, knows that He owns it and is adjusting gradually. I do not want to frighten anybody and I do not want you frighten Me. I want to be taught. Amen.

THE SUPER SIGN

THE SUPER SIGN

Before I will speak to you on THE TWO FOUNDATIONS OF OUR EXISTENCE, I want to give you a little nugget and this nugget will be taken from the Living Bible translation, Zechariah chapter 12 because it is a Super Sign for this last dispensation. It is a Prophetic event.

Zechariah chapter 12 verses 2 and 3: “I will make Jerusalem and Judea like a cup of poison to all the nearby nations that send their army to surround Jerusalem. Jerusalem will be a heavy stone bothering the world. And though all the nations of the Earth unite in an attempt to move her they will be crushed.”
Before I will speak on that matter, let us go to The Seven Seals as revealed to William Branham by the Angel of God many years ago. Those that believed William Branham; that he came from God, they know that the revelation of the Seven Seals came from God. If you do not believe it, it is up to you. However, as for Me, I believe the Prophets.
The Seven Seals page 167, the fourth paragraph: “Now, watch, in the end time,” please underline it.
If Daniel, the Prophet, used the word end time and William Branham, the Prophet Messenger has said: “Now, watch, in the end time…” not “in the early days when Christ was preaching,” but in the end time. “…the last part of the week where we just took the seventy weeks of Daniel and Christ has prophesied for three and half years and yet determined, is that right? And this prince in that time is to make a covenant with Daniel’s people which is the Jew. That is when the Bride is taken out. She will not see it.”
William Branham made it very clear that the Bride of Christ is taken from the Gentiles, not from the Jews, for He (God) deals with the Gentiles as a Church and deals with the Jews as a nation.
He said that there is going to be a pact (an agreement) to be signed. He calls it a covenant as revealed in the “Seventy Weeks of Daniel.” He said that when the prince will make that agreement, that covenant; when it shall be signed, that is the time the Bride will be taken out. She will not see it.
Now look at what the Book of Zechariah is prophesying: “The Lord is going to make Jerusalem a cup of poison to all the nations.”
There shall come a day when every nation shall have no other thing bothering them except the thought of Jerusalem, how to move to Islamic land. Since the history of Creation, Jerusalem has remained the capital of Israel; it is the city of father David. There has never been any controversy around Jerusalem, but God knew that a day will come when Jerusalem will draw the attention of the entire nations around it. The entire world will come together to move Jerusalem away from Israel and then allocate it to another nation.
The Prophet prophesied that when the nations will conclude to make war with Jerusalem, to move her away, the Almighty Himself will descend and crush all the nations. In other words, the Lord Himself will deliver Jerusalem; otherwise, Jerusalem must be moved. But will the prince sign the agreement with them? Hold your peace. Do not say yes; do not say no, but if you are wise note this prophecy; the prophecy of Zachariah has never come to pass until it got to your day and My day.
Jerusalem has never been a burden to nations round about it until in My day and in your day. You know what is happening there now. The proposed meeting which they said is the last meeting has failed. Bill Clinton fooled all of them and ran away because he did not know what to say. This was because Clinton being a Baptist knows Scriptures. America being the protestant nation knows the truth about Jerusalem and God. Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian leader rising up to declare Palestine a State or a country with Jerusalem as an Islamic nation.
Thus, Islam will now possess Jerusalem. Where then is the fate of Judaism? Where is the hope of Christianity? Why are all these things coming up now?
Again, the question arises: why are all the nations in the world showing deep interest in moving Jerusalem away. Even when the Pope went there, his statement to them was: “The time is now due for Palestine to be liberated to be fully independent.”
What is more, watch his suggestion. He suggested that both the Jews and the Muslims should share Jerusalem. That was what he left behind and went away. Today Jerusalem has become a burden stone to the entire world. Why couldn’t this take place in their father’s day? Note, William Branham helped us by a prophecy. He said, “In the end time, not in the beginning, this is what you will expect: the accord of the covenant will be signed to mark the end.” He said the Bride will be taken out when that thing is signed.
Yasser Arafat said nothing will hold him back by 30th September, the year 2000 and the entire people of Palestine are already demonstrating their solidarity behind his statement. They said it is a do or die affair. The Prime Minister of Israel has declared his stand. He said it is mission impossible; that if all the nations will join hands together to move Jerusalem away, the entire world will feel the impact.
Now, from history, from events, from your knowledge so far, do you think it will be easy for Israel to forfeit Jerusalem? If it will be easy, let it be known to you that it will be easy for Nigeria to forfeit Lagos to Benin Republic because if you go to the Bible, Jerusalem is not numbered among the cities along the border line. It is at the heart of the country.
It is just like Lagos that is at the heart of the country or somebody coming from Niger Republic to posses Abuja. Just like a situation where Nigeria will possess Minna and Kaduna and other areas around, and another country will possess Abuja. Is it possible?
The city of father David is what we are talking about. Since the world began till today there has never been any time such a move has been made. People have always been coming to Jerusalem to draw them into captivity. Nebuchadnezzar did it in his day. Emperor Titus tried it in AD 70.
In the Egyptian captivity, Jerusalem remained there. Nobody has ever tried to move Jerusalem. Why are they trying to move Jerusalem now? Who is behind readjusting the boundary line? Who is breaking this old boundary mark? Who is allotting Jerusalem to Islamic world? This is now the talk of the day and the Bible said that when you see these things coming to pass you should be running about, rejoicing. If it is not even in your book, it is a different thing.

WHERE ARE WE NOW?

Remember, I hammered on that matter and I have been hammering on it still. I have been keeping you abreast of the events in the Middle East.
Hear what is going happen now. When you see it happen, you are already running into great tribulation. The Prophet said that it is going to take place in the end time; that the pact is going to be signed. The entire world has already made up their minds about Jerusalem. The position of Jerusalem whether Israel likes it or not has been decided in favour of Palestine.
If you like ask Me how I knew about it. Now what you will expect there is this: any moment from now Jerusalem is going to give birth to three strongest world religion: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Talk of signing the pact, Israel will not know when they will endorse it, but if we remain here on Earth and this thing comes to pass, we better go and eat and rest. I do not know when they are going to sign it; whether today or tomorrow or in September or after September, but will it be signed? Surely it will be signed.
The pressure will be too much. What if they refuse to sign it? Expect a holocaust; expect total destruction. The destruction will be so great that every nation will feel the impact. Whether destruction or peace accord or whatever it is, the truth is that by the time it will be signed, the Bride will no longer be on the scene. The Bride must have been taken away. The Prophet said so.
Now, if the talk of the day today is moving Jerusalem from the Jews to the Muslims and it was prophesied long time ago by Zechariah, it has been lying silent there until our own day, My question is: where do you think we are now?
If the stage is ripe either for the declaration of the Palestine state or moving Jerusalem away peacefully through an accord; if the date is ripe and the whole thing is coming up now, the question arises: where are we now? This question must be answered individually. If you believe it, you will search for the answer. If you do not believe it, put it where you put millennium bug or if you are so provoked about it, abandon the Faith.
The time has come when I do not beg anybody to abide in this Faith again, instead, I will help you to go away if you want to go away. I will even help you to carry your baggage out of this Faith. Even if all of you will abandon the Faith and the only people in the Faith will be My family, I will praise God the more.
Now, when we see these things coming to pass, what do we do? Let us see what is written in the book of Saint Mathew chapter 24.
Saint Mathew chapter 24: 32 -34. “Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.(KJV).
When you see Prophetic events fulfilling in your eyes and you have been so clearly guided by your Prophets that these things will not take place in the beginning; that you should expect them in the end time; things you will see and you will know exactly that it is the end of everything as prophesied in the Holy Scriptures, know that the thing is nearest than you ever thought.
Jesus highlighted it by saying: “When you see these things, you will know that your redemption draweth nigh, even at your door step.”
How many believed Jesus to be a Prophet? I believe he was the Prophet of Deuteronomy 18:18.
“I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.” (Deuteronomy 18:18, KJV).
This is My faith and that was why he could tell Nathaniel: “When you were there, I saw you.” He could ask the woman: “Who are you living with? You are married to many husbands, yet none of them belongs to you.” That is a Prophet.
Now, what do you expect to take place when you hear the Bride will not be on the scene that time to witness that thing? By that time, the Bride will be taken out, for she will not see it. Underline it. This is the revelation of the Seven Seals.
Your ministers will help you to know how we came about this book (The Revelation of the Seven Seals) and the revelation thereof. It is in this book that we learnt so many things about the book of Revelation; the opening of the Seals and the events we have been witnessing even till today. Some of them we shall witness in the near future. It is in this book that we first of all heard about “The Revelation of Seven Thunders.” Let Me keep it somewhere.
I am not trying to reproduce William Branham, but believe your Prophets and you shall be established. Is that not Scripture?

THE TRUE MEANING OF “TAKING OUT OF THE SCENE”

Look at what “taking out of the scene” means. 1st Thessalonians chapter 4 verse 13-17: “But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” (KJV).
Please note it, “shall be caught up with them in the clouds,” not in the sky; “to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
Let us crosscheck Scriptures. 1st Corinthians chapter 15:39-54: “But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Please take note of verse 44. All we have been reading all along is body, body, body.
Verse 45-54: And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?” (KJV).
In other words, that is the only time we shall stop dying in this flesh. Is there anything suggesting that taking you out means moving you into the sky?The Bible said, “There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.” Did you get it?
Right now, we possess natural bodies, but when that hour comes, everybody will possess spiritual bodies. The natural body will be done away with.
Using Jesus the Christ as an instance, it was the natural body that died on the Cross of Calvary. It was the spiritual body that came out from the dead because, from the beginning of His origin, He had a dual nature and all His offspring have dual nature.
There is not one person in this Faith that is created. There is not one person in this Faith that can say he is created or even formed from the dust. I am not formed from the dust.

STAND ON YOUR PERSONAL CONVICTION

I will show you a mystery. We will go back to the Message. I want to pass My Message across. All this while, I have been building a background, from the beginning of this Message till this present verse, and I want to make My background firm so that My building will stand the test of time. IF YOU BELIEVE IN ME, BELIEVE ALSO IN MY FATHER.
Jesus the Christ said, “Believe in God, believe also in Me, for you do not know God.”
Let Me ask you, do you know God? You do not know Him. How can you believe in Him who you do not know? Now you say you believe in God, believe also in Me, for there is no contradiction between Me and God. He is My Father; I am His Son. You are His sons and daughters. I will prove this from the Scriptures. If you are not His sons and daughters, forget about Salvation.
God is saving His sons and daughters and He cannot have sons and daughters on Earth until He has established His Family on Earth. God Himself has never borne the title “Father” until His son was born. As many as were of Adam, were not sons of God. If they answer sons of God, they were created sons of God, for they came from the lineage of the first man called Adam who was ordinarily natural.
We will look into the Bible again. I want to show you a mystery so that when you are rejoicing in the victory, your rejoicing will have no limit and no human being can seduce you away from your conviction. When you are convinced, you are not standing on Brother’s faith or Sister’s faith; YOU ARE STANDING ON YOUR PERSONAL CONVICTION. This is exactly where I want everybody to stand.
Without personal conviction, there is no head way. I do not believe in collective conviction. There is nothing like that. Conviction is individual. Amen.

THE INCORRUPTIBLE ESTATE OF THE BRIDE

Now, all I am trying to bring out here is that the Bride will not be there when the agreement will be signed. She must have been taken out by that time. All that the Prophet was trying to bring out is this: by that time, the Elects must have been clothed with the immortal body, the incorruptible estate of the Bride.

This Message is piling in Me. I touched it somewhere, but I did not preach it. I just scratched it: the incorruptible estate of the Bride, that is, the undefiled condition of the Church. This is because if we are corruptible, something is wrong along the way.
Everybody must come to that incorruptible condition and when that is attained, death is swallowed up in victory. There will not be sickness because death revolves around sickness. There will not be accidental discharge of bombs or this or that; motor crashing, na lie; no mortuary anymore. Doctors will be useless.
Where there is no sickness, there is no hospital. Even that time, no doctor will ever remember that he was a physician. That memory will be flushed out from him completely because what brought that thing in is no more.
You can now see that anybody that is interpreting “taking out of the scene” into meaning that you will be taken out from here and maybe landing somewhere else, he is making a grievous mistake. Then the truth is that we all shall be clothed with immortality and we will be in Christ’s Estate. In that Estate, there is no need complaining about rent or mansion or anything worldly. There is nothing in this world that will attract our attention again.
Even, when we shall be ruling this Earth, we will not demand taxes from them. We will take care of ourselves without even labouring. By and by we are going to control this Earth for one thousand years where we will rule the Earth with the rod of iron.
The millennial reign is the reign of Christ and His people; the redeemed of all the ages. I say, if it is not scriptural, we throw it away, but it is scriptural. You are wondering. Do not wonder; do not think, do not dream, for God is going to do far greater than your dream, that which you cannot think of or even imagine. That is why it has never entered the heart of man. There is no amount of spiritual research that can give you an insight into what the content is all about.
I will show you that in the Bible again in this Message. If you can get it through spiritual insight leave this Faith because whatever you can get is temporary, but this one goes beyond your dreams. You know, you can dream a dream and see yourself in England. It is temporary. You can dream a dream where you are a millionaire, it is temporary. This one goes beyond your dream.
Now, in the matter at stake, this issue of having new bodies that are incorruptible, the Bible said we shall all be changed in a twinkling of an eye, putting on a new body; which is an undying body that can never feel pain again and death will be swallowed up in victory within a twinkling of an eye.
What a wonderful promise in the Holy Scriptures! Has it come to pass? We are waiting for it. When are we expecting it? Now. I say, I am expecting it today. If I wait for it today and it does not come pass, tomorrow I will continue to wait.
As long as it is still pending, I am a part of it. While it lingers, I will remain patient because when I am clothed with it, I will know, but until then, I will keep on marching on because I know He that has made the promise. He cannot fail.
There is no time I will come to think that it has expired until some people have been clothed and I am left out, but God forbid. How can I preach it and be left out of the programme? Without Me you will not get it. As a result, do not ever make a mistake of thinking that way.
You see, I am a selfish man there. There is one thing that got into My hand and we weighed the thing and realized it is expensive and very good for the health. Brethren were thinking on how to finance and share it. I joined them in making contributions, but they did not know that I had already made up My mind.
While they were thinking and having meetings and so on, Mine was already hiding in My room, secured in the bedroom under lock and key. Hallelujah!
Yes. I know this secret more than you. I will be clothed first, then I will clothe you. This is the truth of the matter. You cannot bypass Me here. We are shouting on blessings, upon blessings. If Abraham was not blessed, we should forget about blessings. We are drawing our blessings through Abraham. That is all.

ONLY PERFECT LOVE WILL BE THERE

I want to go a little further to remind you of something. While we are waiting for this, the question arises: who and who will be qualified to get these new bodies, whether the translation is taking place now, tomorrow or any time? Who among us will be qualified?
The Prophet answered it that no other person will be found there except one that is filled with perfect love. Nothing is there except perfect love. This love is without hypocrisy. This love is free from backbiting, murmuring; it is free from gossiping and quarrelling; this love is the love of God; it has no other Earthly consideration; it is love. No more, no less.
Then how many now possess this quality? How many can say: “I really love my Brother and I do not know why? All I know is that I love him. I love my Sister, but I do not know why I love her; deep in my heart I know I love her.”
You told me, she is this and that, I will say, “Well, that is the way you see it, but I love her anyhow.” Brother is this and that, that is to you but whether it is true or false, I love him anyhow; and I mean it from my heart of hearts. I really love him.
Who and who possess this quality? Who and who will say, “I am not scared of Brother; I am not scared of Sister,” for there is no fear in love? Perfect love drives away all fears. That is scriptural. Who can now have that perfect love that he fears no Brother or Sister; that is, he or she is not scared away? He is always in his best form with Brother or Sister, he feels at home whenever he is with them.
Who possesses that quality in the whole Bride? Who can boast of having it? Maybe Brother is a hypocrite saying something he does not possess. Is there any measurement for it? The answer is, yes. This love endures all things; cherishes all things; is not easily provoked. He does not hold anger. You can provoke him in the morning, before evening it is rolled off. Deep in the heart of one that possesses it, it is joy, joy, joy.
Saint Paul said, “If it means boasting, permit Me to boast. I deserve it.” Saint Paul knew himself very well. He came to a point and said, “There was a man I saw. I do not know whether it was a reality or dream, fourteen years ago in one of my trances or something like that,” he entered the higher heavens. He saw no other person but himself. He ended it saying, “I do not want to be exalted more than what I am.”
There was something I wanted to achieve. You know, there is no way God can do something without starting it with somebody. There must be somebody who will be exemplary. God cannot start dealing with all of us and finish with all of us at the same time. He will start with somebody and with that somebody, He places him as a model. The rest will now be asked to line up.
Let Me use these two illustrations. There was a time I used the relationship between our Brother, Deacon Joshua Apke’s family and Bishop Nnachor’s family to talk to this Church. I said, “I have seen such a wonderful Godly relationship among them which has not even been witnessed between Me and My Brother, Bishop Okechukwu Paul.” I said it in this Church.
What happened? Satan cashed in on that statement immediately and tried to finish the two families. They could not hold on to their testimonies, and I wept bitterly. If I were in their shoes and I received such a remark, knowing fully well where the remark was coming from and the time the remark was made, I would maintain it with My last blood.
I think what happened to them happened that those that will follow after will learn a great lesson. Understand what I mean. I do not intend to praise a man. You know, we are becoming crazier everyday. If there is something I have seen that has endeared My heart so much to continue preaching (that it is not in vain) let it be what I will call the existence and co-existence, which I will also call a divine co-existence that now exists and is sustained between My family and Bishop Okechuku Paul.
I am not trying to cause you to be envious. We are more or less, husband and wife. You do not know what I am saying because I have been watching the thing from afar off to discern what is within. If it is not Godly, I will remove it, but I have come to the conclusion that the thing is really Godly. Hence, we cannot suppress it again. God bless you Brother.
We have become Eddie Boys. We know what we are saying. It must start somewhere. If all of you can be open to yourselves, the same way I relate with my Brother is the same way I will relate with you.
I used him because he is closer to Me. If all of you can relate with yourselves the same way we relate with each other, the relationship has now permeated into the fabrics of our families so much so that the Devil cannot even find a place.
I am telling you, rapture will not be over-delayed, even this moment. If we can attain it in the Bride, I promise you that we will not even go away from here today. The whole thing will end in the fellowship. In other words, conclusively, I am saying that what the Prophet said is true, that the Bride is delaying herself here on Earth. Talk of receiving the Word, the Word has been given to her, but she has received it to dress herself.
The duty of the Five-Fold Ministry is to give you your dress. You are to clothe yourself. Many of you received dresses and put them in your portfolios and that is why you are what you are today. Any day you dress yourselves with the materials you collected from the Five-Fold Ministry; surely rapture will not remain till morning.
Carry this good news to all Churches in this Faith that the Son of Man said that you collected your dresses and packed them in your portfolios. Is it not a shameful thing to notice that till this very hour that some ministers do not live at peace with their wives? They are not at peace with their families, yet they want to be translated; they want to be changed. Can God change them outside His Word?
Charity begins at home; perfection starts with the Five-Fold. That perfect love must first of all be witnessed in the Five-Fold Ministry. When I say Five-Fold ministers, I mean as many as are called into Ephesians 4:11.
“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers.” (Ephesians 4:11, KJV).
When God calls a man, He calls his wife, but where you have not lined up with your families, do not blame the congregation. I speak to your shame that reports reaching Me still confirm that some members of the Church learn evil from the families of some ministers.
I speak to your shame. Instead of being an encouragement to your Brethren, you are a discouragement. What a shameful remark. When we come to fellowship, we clap our hands and dance. When you gather together as ministers, you can hardly reveal yourselves to one another. You have lots and lots of reservations. The same way it is with your families yet you say you are members of one Family.
I am saying that you are professing what you do not believe. I am only here having majority professing that they are children of God, but only few adopting Christ nature. Do not strangle Me to death; hate Me if you wish, but allow Me to live. Hate Me if you wish, but permit Me to have My right of existence.
If we have lined up with the Message we received and rapture is delayed, the Bible has deceived us because the moment we attain that unity of faith which will reflect in unity of behaviour nothing stops God from clothing the Church with immortality.
If there is a Scripture that said He is going clothe us one by one; clothe Me today and tomorrow He clothes Brother Joe, then we will say: “Let us keep trying. Thank God I have taken Mine,” but the promise is to the Church. It is not one individual attaining it and then he gets his incorruptible garment. If it is that way, surely many would have been flying in the air. If it takes place that way, then there will be too many raptures. It cannot be one again.

HOW DO YOU HAVE THIS PERFECT LOVE?

Something is about to take place. Will God endure and wait till eternity? No. This is why He has now decided to work with His time. God is no longer working with the Church. He is working with His time. He would have worked with the Church, if they were lining up. What I mean working with the Church is carrying everybody along at the same time; young and old, but this time around, He will only work with His time. When the time clocks, He is going to snap it and only those that are ready will make it. The rest will be dropped.
How do you have this perfect love? It is to make sure that your lamp is filled with enough oil. Oil means Holy Spirit. Let Me tell you what happens to you when you believe this trusted Word.
Ephesians 1:13-14. “In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise,
Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.” (KJV).
When you believe, believe does not mean acknowledging something to be the truth with your mouth or going about saying it because you know it to be the truth. When you start reflecting the truth, living the life of truth; when truth starts to be evidently seen in your conduct, whatever you do reflects the Gospel truth. You are doing it because you believe it. I will not be suspicious of My Brother; I will not be suspicious of My Sister’s action because I believe the truth; equally, she believes the truth and her character is My character. She is reflecting the truth she believes. The same way I am reflecting the truth I believe which she knows is her faith.
There is uniformity of faith and conduct. Somebody can say it is impossible. It is only impossible to the unbeliever but it is possible to the believer. If it is impossible, there is no need writing it in the Bible. It then means that God is making a demand that is impossible. It is only going to be possible; if we take the correct drug God has given us which is the Holy Spirit.
Once that Holy Spirit is there, which is the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Love, everything is possible. Do not carry the Spirit of God too far. The Bible said, “God is love; love is of God. He that loveth is of God.”
If you do not have the spirit of love, we cannot tutor it into you. The problem we are having is that preachers have been trying to tutor love into people when they do not have the spirit. You make them feel sad; you will put them in bondage more than the Law because they do not have the spirit of love.
Compelling the person to practise love is putting him in bondage. He will not be free; even if he wants to try it, he will be doing it grudgingly and he will turn round to regret, although, he will be laughing, giving people impression that he is happy in the saints’ fellowship. Wait until you go away.
How can you have the spirit? That is why there is no need over flogging this matter. We want to trace it here and we are going to trace it to its conclusive end.
Remember where I started, having only but one intention: to arouse that awareness and consciousness in you that the time we are in is more delicate than the time we have passed. What is awaiting us now is more disastrous than the millennium bug.
See where we are now; we have seen Jerusalem, the burdening load; we have the prophecy; we have seen William Branham’s revelations and I am going back to the Bible again to try to convince you the more about the time we are in.
Note, what prompted our governor to circulate his books more was the truth he read in our book because we did not just wake up to make a statement; we used historical Bible events to show the whole world where we are and what they should expect.
In his book, he said, “If these things do not come to pass in the year 2000, wait for them. They will surely come to pass,” but one of the things he prophesied was that in the year 2000 that this nation will be blessed with God walking in human form; that the God-man will be here in Nigeria, but the problem is that people will not know Him.
He told them that He will come with a Message that will not condemn anybody; that He will come with the Message of Grace that will even justify sinners. He told them many things. How many have read the book? I commanded you to read the book. If I did not command you that means I am envious, but the things he discussed were the things we teach in our little children Sunday school class.
When you have the spirit of love in you, there is no need troubling yourself again because it is a sure sign that God dwells in you. A human being is one that has the Spirit of God in him. If you do not have the Spirit of God in you, you are a beast.

THE GOOD NEWS (GRACE)

Now, when you that that Holy Spirit in you, Ephesians 4:30 said, “And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”
Ephesians 1:13-14: “And because of what Christ did, all you others too will have the good news about how to be saved and trusting Christ were marked as belonging to Christ by the Holy Spirit who long ago has been promised to all of us Christians.
His presence within us is God’s guarantee that he really will give us all that he promised and spirit seal upon us means that God has already purchased us and that he guarantees to bring us to Himself. This is one more reason for us to praise our glorious God.” Living Bible.
All of you that had the good news, not bad news of how to be saved; not the bad news of following the impossible road. As many as heard the good news, in other words, not the world will hear it. Only few will hear it which is contrary to man’s ideas and philosophy; contrary to the ways of the Law which our fathers followed.
Till now, our fathers are still following the way of the Law, but you are the people that have heard the good news. The Bible is called, the good news while the Law is called, the bad news. Let Me tell you what I mean.
When Saint Paul preached to the Gentiles and went away some people went there and beguiled them with the Law and they were groaning and weeping. When the matter was carried to Jerusalem, they wrote a letter back to the believers over there. The Bible said that when the good news was read, liberating them from the Law, they jubilated. Thus, those people who left Jerusalem on their own and went to the Gentiles to put the people back to the bondage of the Law, they gave them bad news which is the Message of death.
The Bible called it the ministration of doom and death. Something that brings doom, destruction and death is it good news? Besides, the people were weeping and crying: “Could it be that Paul fooled us?” The cry was so much that Paul dragged the thing to Jerusalem; elders met and wrote them a letter, liberating them from those Jewish Laws and the Bible said that when the Gentiles heard it, they rejoiced and the Jews were offended.
The Law favours the wicked. If you are wicked man, you love the Law. A liberally-minded fellow rejoices in Grace. Grace is not for everybody. It is for liberal-minded people.
When they heard it and believed it, God gave them the Holy Spirit. They were marked as belonging to Christ by the Holy Spirit. His Presence within us is God’s guarantee. You know what guarantee is. Can God write and erase? He really will give us all that He promised including the changing of our mortal bodies; even the things He promised which He said He will give us which are far above our dreams and human thinking, even our hopes. He that sealed us is God.
I have taught you. These languages are no longer strange. They are scriptural. His seal on us is a sure sign that God has now purchased us and that He guarantees, but what if you hear the Message of how to be saved and you still doubt it? You doubt the possibilities: “How can this be? Do you mean to tell us that we are not committing sin again? No sin again?” Will He guarantee your safety if you do not believe? No. You can be in the Church and perish.
That is why as many as believed, they were telling Saint Paul that there was no more room for doubt. Thus, we are sure and certain that God will do that which He has promised.
Saint Paul who knew Him well said, “Do not ever think, if you hear people say: ‘what if we trust in Christ alone to safe us and we do not try to do this and do that, at the end we get disappointed, let nobody among you ever think that way.’ Do not allow this type of reasoning to ever crop up in your memory.”
He went further to say, “We shall rather be counted as transgressors, as sinners if we start rebuilding the old system that has been condemned and taken away; we will become sinners.”
Who is a sinner? He that is still practising the Law or holding some figments of the Law or mixing Law with Grace. That is a sinner. He does not have God’s guarantee. Christ has not purchased him. He is limping between two opinions. No seal yet; no signature signed.
When you know Scriptures, happy are you. You must stand upon your conviction of the Holy Word of God. My duty is to give you the Word, but I do not force you to believe it. I have believed. That is why I am giving it to you. I am saved! I was saved even before I was sent. I have already been secured.
I was telling a Brother the other time: “How do you think that after preaching, I will perish? Don’t you know that He had already perfected His Son before He was sent? When you were not with Me, I was with My Faith. A time came when I was the only one holding it. Anywhere I went they rejected it, but I kept on holding it without a single convert. I am telling you the truth.
Brother Shadrach, you know what I am saying. Brother Mike Emmanuel, you are aware of what I am saying. I was not holding it with anybody that time. It was stinking poison and people were scared because of it, everybody asking Me to drop it, but I held it firm. If I had not been sure of who gave it to Me, I would have dropped it, but I was sure and certain.
You see, I was laughing at them and now, you can see what it has wrought in the Bride because you believed it. People were impatiently calling it Devil, but let us go back to the Bible, they will say, no. As many as agreed to go back to the Bible, today, their eyes have opened.
Ephesians 1:13-14: “In Him you also who have heard the word of truth, the glad tidings, gospel of your Salvation and have believed in and have adhered to and relied on him were stamped with the seal of the long promised Holy Spirit.
That Spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance, the first fruit, the pledge and fore taste, the down payment of our heritage in anticipation of its full redemption and our acquiring complete possession of it to the prince of his glory.” Amplified Bible. Amen.

AS WE NEAR THE END…

Blessed be the Name of the Lord. I am still laying foundation. As we approach the end, are we really nearing the end? What must we hold at a time like this?

What must be our sure Anchor as we near the end? That is why, at a time like this, you need Christ. At a time like this, you need an Anchor and you have to make sure your anchor holds and it is gripping on the Solid Rock.
Second Peter chapter 1:19-21: “We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpretation.
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” KJV.
We compare Scriptures with Scriptures and interpret the Scriptures with Scriptures, for no prophecy of the Scriptures is for any private interpretations. In other words, whatever you may be holding as your personal views or opinions about any prophecy in the Bible or any part of the Scripture, keep it to yourself. If it does not reflect in the Word, please throw it away. This is because it contains no light. Light means truth.
The Prophet said that God is going to reveal to us, new, new things, but the new things will agree with the revealed Word. What if I told you that Esau is Edom and it is not revealed in the Word?
Many can believe it because they know the source; many will doubt it because there is nowhere they can lay their hands, but if I had used the Scriptures to establish your faith to believe that I came from Him, won’t you believe that God is still speaking even till this very hour? He that could, through the Word, reveal to you the unknown that could beat all human imaginations, don’t you think that He, through the Quickening Spirit can also bring out the mind of the Father that is not even written in the Bible or anywhere?
I HAVE BEEN TRYING ALL THESE YEARS TO CONVINCE SOME TO BELIEVE THAT I AM FROM THE FATHER FOR THE FATHER SENT ME FOR THEIR OWN SAKE. THERE IS NO OTHER REASON WHY I AM SENT. If He sent Me to come and run an organization, I will not be in this small group. There is nothing that will bring Me into this small group.
The organization would have existed before I knew any of you and as the head of that organization; I do not think you will see Me anyhow. That personal ego and pride that is associated with such organizations will keep Me away from many of you and I will be shuttling from Nigeria to America worldwide.
Anytime I breeze into the country, I will just see some people and go away. I will join them in this foreign currency-mania; get it and then erect structures here and there. This is the truth.
Let Me tell you what I mean. Who does not love money? Who does not want to be wealthy? Even if I am nothing, at least, you believe that I am an Apostle. Even if you do not believe that, you believe that I am a Teacher. That alone qualifies Me to be a member in the Five-Fold Ministry and as member, at least, I will be having a share in your tithe.
If tithe is for the Five-Fold and already I am among the Five-Fold, I will be having a share.
All I am trying to say is this: we knew where we took off. If it is from human origin, you know how many years we are now. We would have adulterated it and created a way where we will be making some cheating, but that will not happen while I am here in this flesh. It is impossible. It is too late now.
Brethren have known their left from their right. As a result, no man can deceive them again; they no longer stand on what any man is saying. They are standing on the revealed truth. Full stop. You cannot push them about. This is exactly what I have been trying to achieve.
Now, you believe that I came from Him, believe also that He speaks to you through Me. No man knows the mind of the Father except He that is in the Father. The Bible said so. It is only He that is in the bosom of the Father that knows the mind of the Father, but I am in My Father and My Father is in Me.
Thus, when you believe in God, believe also in Me for you cannot see God without Me. If you think you can bypass Christ and go to paradise who takes you there? Do you know the way? The promise said, “When I go, I will come back and take you to Myself, that wherever I am, you will be.”
Do you know where He went to? Did you go with Him? If He fails to come back, He is the greatest liar. Remember He said, “I will not leave you comfortless. I will come again and be with you even forever. Lo, I am with you always.” I do not believe it is ordinary air. I do not believe that. I am not saying this irrevocable truth because I am involved. Even if I am not involved, I will always believe scriptural truths.
Now, as we near the end and the Bible said the Word of God should not be interpreted by any human being. It is of no private interpretation, for the prophecy came not of old by the will of man but holy men of God spake as they were led by the Holy Spirit. Is that Bible?
When you know this, happy are you. As we near the end, the only thing that will be your sure Anchor, Anchor of your soul, is the more sure word of prophecy. When you hold it, you are going to shine as a star. There is no amount of darkness that can comprehend your light.
As we near the end, everybody, all hands must be on deck, to search out Prophetic words relating to the end time. Marry events taking place in your day with the prophecies in the Bible and then while you do that be watchful and be patient. That is what we will keep on doing within this last lap, but if you are holding on to what people are saying, well, I praise God for you. You can be easily swept away.
As we near the end. How are we sure we are approaching the end?
Second Peter chapter 3:8: “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (KJV).
But will this long-suffering be till eternity? The moment the time of Gentiles is over and somebody is still waiting for God to be long-suffering, he is wasting his time.

THE PROPHETIC SUPER SIGNS

I am going to show you one of the prophetic super signs you are going to watch out for. Don’t think you are going to enjoy rainy season; you are going to enjoy heat in the rainy season. From now, instead of enjoying cold atmosphere in the rainy season, you are going to enjoy heat, even as never witnessed during hot season. Note it down.
Last year it was very hot but this year, it is going to be extremely hot. You heard the reports from the Scandinavian land last year that the snow could not fall. People went about driving their vehicles all the year round; something that has never happened before.
I am not talking about ozone layer. I do not know what ozone is, but I am going to speak to you about Prophetic events. Scientists said there is something they call ozone layer; something that shields the sun from scorching mankind.
What is more, they said that industrial activities and deforestation have eroded away almost the entire ozone layer. Human beings here on Earth now feel the scorching heat of the sun here on Earth so greatly and there is nothing scientists can do to replenish the ozone layer. It is eating away and it cannot be replenished, but hold it there, until I get there.
As we near the end. A day in the sight of the Lord, the Bible gave us an insight that it is just like one thousand years in the sight of man and a thousand years is just like a day. Let us see whether there was a Prophet that saw it this way.
How many believed David to be a Prophet? How many believed Saul, the king to be a Prophet? King Saul was a Prophet. He was a Prophet even if he prophesied for only one day.
Psalms chapter 90:4. “For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.” (KJV).
Is it confirmed? Now, as we near the end, we want to go back to the Acts of the Apostles chapter 2:17.

WAKE UP FROM SLUMBER

We want to see what Peter said about the end time. As we near the end, the only thing you can do is to anchor your soul in the more sure word of prophecy.
Acts of the Apostles chapter 2:17 “And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.” (KJV).
Please, note it. When this thing happened, Saint Peter announced that we have rolled into the last days and these last days will climax itself at the winding up of the period of Grace. There is a period of Grace, which is a period of two thousand years allotted to the Gentiles. This is the period of the Gentile Church Age.
The Gentile Church Age will last until Jerusalem is fully restored and has become a burden to all the nations round about it. When you see Jerusalem being in trouble, nations uniting, discussing on how to move Jerusalem, let it be known to you that God is about to move back to Jerusalem to redeem His people, for He cannot remain in Edom and see His people being destabilized again, for after the third exodus there is no other prophecy that stipulated that they will scatter again, instead, the prophecy said that there will be peace around their borders.
In other words, the Redeemer will be going back any moment from now. He will be flying back. That is why, Israel is keeping her eyes on the Rabbi who is now guiding them everyday with the Prophetic boundaries and the things they must expect from the United Nations. While I am shouting in the Gentile world, he is shouting over there. I am guiding you home. He is guiding them to get ready to receive whoever that is crossing over there.
I do not know who that person will be, but it is no other person, but the very Christ, for the very Christ that has been exiled to the Gentiles will not be there forever. The Bible said so.
Prophet Zachariah said what He (Christ) is going to do. When He gets there to redeem His people, He will reveal Himself. It is only then that they will see the thing and then acknowledge it. The Gentiles do not know what it means. We are not responsible for the nails in his hands. We are not responsible for the bruising in his head. We are not responsible for the crown of thorns piercing Him. Even if we see it, we do not know what it means.
As we near the end. Take note, I am coming closer. There is nobody in this Faith who is a student of the Bible that does not know that A DAY OF REST still awaits God’s people. The full and complete Sabbath rest is still waiting. How many will like to be there?
Hebrews chapter 4:8: “This mention of a rest was not a reference to their entering into Canaan for if Joshua had given them rest, He, God would not speak afterwards about another day.
So then, there is still waiting a full and complete Sabbath rest reserved for the true people of God, for He who has once entered God’s rest also has ceased from the weariness and pains of human labor just as God rested from those labors peculiarly his own.” Amplified.
Shall we say Amen if we believe it! Amen.
How many are waiting for this rest? Up till this very moment we are still labouring; we still owe house rents; every morning, we go out for work. We still sweat, but when He that entered that rest will cease from every human activity, human labour will come to an end. If this is what is promised in the Prophetic Word, nobody can cancel it; and until you enter it do not slumber. Wake up from slumber.
At a time when you think the promise will no longer take place, there it will come to pass. God’s promises have never come to pass until they are ridiculed and doubted.
On this note I say thank you and remain blessed in Him eternally. Amen.
