DISOBEY THE VOICE OF GOD AND LAND YOURSELF IN TROUBLE VOL 1 Preached on SUNDAY 22ND APRIL 2018 PG 97:43

THE MOMENT YOU RESIST THE WORD OF GOD, YOU INCUR HIS WRATH
I want to thank our Father and Lord who loved me so much and in His infinite mercy granted me this great privilege to come your way once again.
- As we speedily approach the end of the world, events around us speak very clearly more than any other thing.
We have facts about the end of the world, because He that created the world by the spoken word is here in the midst of the bride.
- That is why it pays very greatly for you to have divine revelation of He that is in the midst of the bride for He holds the keys to every facet of this life.
- He had declared long ago in the message the great reunion that the earth has fallen down like a drunkard and will not rise again.
- Unfortunately, many still do not believe that the earth has fallen down like a drunkard and will never rise again. For the manifestation is the interpretation.
- They still believe that things will improve in this fallen earth for life to become better for them to enjoy.
- It is a pity that many have rejected the great light that is in the world and so they are groping in darkness.
- Many lack the revelation of what they are doing, that is the greatest problem we face in the bride of Christ ministry. Lack of personal revelation of what we are doing and worshiping of God is personal.
- Turn with me to the bible; Isaiah 24:20[KJV] – “The Earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall totter like a hut; its transgression shall be heavy upon it, and it will fall and not rise again.
- ”LIVING BIBLE – “The world staggers like a drunkard; it shakes like a tent in a storm. It falls and will not rise again; for the sins of the earth are very great.”
- THE MESSAGE BIBLE – “Earth staggers like a drunk, sways like a shack in a high wind. Its piled up sins are too much for it. It collapses and won’t get up again.”
- The Lord God Almighty who created the earth by the spoken word had declared that the earth had collapsed and won’t get up again. Nothing good can come out of the earth again. Whatever goes up can never come down again.
- The moment you resist God’s word; Christ – Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN], you have incurred His wrath. Get ready! Let me tell you, we are not following supernatural signs alone, we have seen the sign, we have heard the accompanying voice, for behind every supernatural sign, there is a supernatural voice.
- Voice of the supernatural sign is Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN] the creator of all things. Without Him nothing was created. Believe it if you have the heart.
- When Adam, the first man He created in His image and likeness failed Him by listening to the voice of his wife instead of His voice, knowing the danger, never rested and delayed for one hundred and thirty years but continued to seek His face until He the same God, we are worshipping today answered him. But today many play with this great voice and think they will go free.
- Adam was very concerned about his relationship with God. For he knew that life on earth and life after was useless nonsense without God who is Christ. And I strongly believe that every righteous descendant of Adam must be very concerned about his or her relationship with God. He or she must be sure he or she is in right relationship with God.
- Turn with me to the first book of Adam and Eve Chapter 3:2-6 – “God said to Adam ‘I, have ordained on this earth days and years, and you and your descendants shall live and walk in them, until the days and years are fulfilled;
- When I shall send the word that created you, and against which you have transgressed, the word that made you come out of the Garden, and that raised you when you were fallen.
- Yes, the word that will again save you when the five and a half days are fulfilled’.
- But when Adam heard these words from God, and of the great five and a half days, he did not understand the meaning of them.
- For Adam was thinking there would be only five and a half days for him until the end of the World.
- Adam cried, and prayed to God to explain it to him.
- Then God in His mercy for Adam who was made after His own image and likeness, explained to him, that these were 5,000 and 500 years, and how one would then come and save him and his descendants.”
- Adam transgressed against the word that created him and the word made him to come out of the garden, and raised him up when he fall.
- If it took the word that created Adam to raise him when he was fallen, what do you think will raise the earth in this fallen stage?
- JOHN 1:1-3 LB – “Before anything else existed, there was the word with God. He has always been alive and is Himself God. He created everything there is – nothing existed that He didn’t make.”
- When God responded to Adam’s cry and plea, Adam did not understand what God said to him, he again cried and prayed to God to explain it to him.
- Which God in His infinite mercy did and Adam understood that it will be after five thousand, five hundred years that God will take flesh in His creature to save Adam and his descendants. That is, his righteous descendants and not his unrighteous descendants through Cain.
- When the time came for the Almighty God to fulfill His promise, He came as Christ, the word made flesh.
- In the first advent of Christ, He did not die for the whole world. So in His second advent, He the resurrected body – Christ in human flesh appeared in the midst of the bride for full and complete salvation. And He is the Son of Man – Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN].
- Presently He talks to us at least from the bottom of His heart so that we do not perish in the end.
- Turn with me to the message: GRACE ABUSED, Preached by the Son of Man on 16th September, 1999. Page 22:5-13 – “HEBREWS CHAPTER 9 VERSE 28 – ‘So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation’ KJV
- ‘So also Christ died only once as sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again but not to deal with our sins again. This time He will bring salvation to all those who are eagerly waiting for Him. LB’
- You see, the first coming of Christ was to deal with sin. The second coming of Christ was to bring salvation to those that are patiently and eagerly waiting for Him. Is that not scripture?
- People don’t know the reason for the second coming of Christ. Please read your Bible between the lines. The Bible said that He shall come with the message of salvation.
- The first coming of Christ was to pay the price for sin, to put an end to sin so that nobody would come there and say, “The sin of Adam. What our fore fathers did”, what is that sin which you will commit? Unbelief.
- Sin today is unbelief. If you do not believe in what Christ has done for you, you are a sinner. If you do not believe in the message He brought, you are a sinner. A sinner today is an unbeliever. Sin is unbelief. Glory be to god.
- Hence, we can say that the second coming of Christ is over. We are now expecting the third returning. The third returning will not happen until we are delivered into paradise. There is a messenger [THE ARCH ANGEL] that will deliver you into paradise.
- Then the third return is to deal with the world. He has fixed a date in which He is going to judge the entire world in righteousness, to execute justice upon the earth. He will take you to Himself, place you wherever He is, and then come back to trample upon the wicked.
- When we get to that place. I will show you scriptures, that one [Christ, THE ELOHIM] will now take you to Armageddon.
- You will see Him fighting the war – by Himself in His third return where no flesh is saved. But now, somebody can be saved even this moment. If you believe, you can be saved this moment.
- Thus, I have not come in the fellowship to promise you that everybody will follow me anyhow, no; you cannot follow me anyhow.
- If you have not been patiently and eagerly waiting for salvation, sure you are not in the number. The world has not been patiently and eagerly waiting for salvation, otherwise, they would have embraced the faith of Christ.
- Now I want to introduce the topic; “WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?” Some are waiting for full and complete salvation while many are waiting for total and complete destruction.
- The question arises: which one are you waiting for?
- Now, we have a very clear fact that the second coming of Christ is over and we are waiting for the third return which will not take place until He Christ-Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN] who is the Arch Angel Himself will deliver us into paradise.
- Then the all-important question remains: – what are you waiting for? Full and complete salvation or total and complete destruction? The answer is in all of us.
- When God from His oasis of Grace leads us to the pearls of truth in His infallible and inerrant word we ought to cherish them without reservation.
- The message of life is Christ-Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN], the treasure flesh that holds our capacity to enjoy abundant life, and maximum happiness in life. As well as the source of unprecedented blessings for today and tomorrow.
- Therefore, “buy truth” by staying grounded in the word made flesh because truth is better than the whole money in this world. And all desirable things cannot compare with truth.
- Remember the voice said, “But now, somebody can be saved even this moment. If you believe, you can be saved this moment.
- Turn with me to the message: GET READY FOR THE FINAL CALL. Preached by THE SON OF MAN on Sunday 12th March, 2022. Page 33:1-4 “We give God the glory for everything He has been doing for us. Everything pertaining to God is not only great but the greatest.
- We can see events unfolding on a day to day basis. We were told to wait and watch events as they unfold on a daily basis, and that where we are now is where we are supposed to stay and watch things unfold daily. And whatever that remains, no human being born of a woman can accomplish it.
- The Almighty God Himself will accomplish what remains, and He said that He is going to stir up trouble in all the nations of the earth.
- And human beings will use the accumulated weapons of warfare they piled since after the Second World War. They will use all of them to destroy themselves.
- And the Lord will stir it up in such a wonderful manner that will spark off the trouble will be a very small issue. And at the end of the trouble, what will be left of the human race will be only one-quarter of the population of the earth.”
- This hour calls for us to be very careful. We should watch and pray and watch over our lives so that we will not be joining hands with the world to be highlighting what is going to happen to the whole earth to the neglect of our souls.
- Pause and think, making sure you answer this very important question: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
- Page 55:50-51 – “So, let us be careful as we see events unfold on a daily basis. May we do the right thing. May we do the needful by re-examining ourselves in line with the teachings we have received to know whether we are measuring up to standard.
- If you know you are not measuring up to the standard, this is your time. This is your time, for everything will fail you, whether you like it or not.”
- PAGE 120:35-36 – “This is why heaven is narrowing down every minute [sure!!!]. God is looking for one person, two or three who will take Him seriously, [sure!!!] purify their hearts by the entrance of the word of God, vow a vow that they will live a transparent life before God and before man just like all the Apostles who were so transparent that they appeared before all men and said, ‘Who can accuse us of sin?’ sure!!!
- Thus, do not just sit down here and whenever truth goes out, you confirm it. Yes! It is your responsibility to confirm it, but it is not truth until it is evidently made manifest in your life. Amen!!!”
- You will agree with me that it is not the desire of our great God that any should perish but it is His desire that all will come to the knowledge of truth and then get saved.
- Turn with me to the message: ARE YOU THE PROMISED ONE TO COME OR DO WE WAIT FOR ANOTHER? Volume 2. Preached By the Son of Man on 26th August, 2012. Page 19:12. “Note it, all the saints of God. The hour has come for us to address the truth in its entirety as individuals and collectively.
- Begin to address the truth as an individual and you must find out where the problem lies. It is not my desire that any should perish but that all will come to the knowledge of truth and then get saved. There is nothing to compare to salvation.”
- PAGE 31:9 – “Knowing God means knowing His love, His mercy and His judgment. If you do not know Him that way, definitely you do not know Him”
- Know it that God’s love goes only to His obedient children and not for the world. His mercy is equally for His own. That is the reason He judges and acquits His own. His judgment is for all who have rejected Him.
- The love and mercy of God is for whosoever He wish. But to begin with, do you expect God to love you, when you are rebellious and hostile to the truth. Though, you may pretend to be quiet. But it is not godly quietness, but it is an uneasy calm.
- Turn with me to the message; HE HAS COME HE HAS GONE. Preached by the Son of Man on 23rd September, 2012. PAGE154:16-22 “NOTE, THE SON OF MAN is sent for judgment. Now, what is that judgment?
- That HE came to open the spiritual eyes of people, but the people he met said no that they were not blind. If they have acknowledged that they are spiritually blind, God would have helped them. Up till this very day, this very moment. They are still with their blindness. This is the judgment!
- ST. MARK CHAPTER4:11-12; ‘and He said unto them, unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables.
- That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; least at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them KJV’
- Are you here in the kingdom by your own making? No! Those people who are outside the kingdom, who placed them there? God! Who made it impossible for you to hear and understand? God! What can you say opened the eyes of some?
- To those who are outside the kingdom of Heaven, the kingdom of the saved, the mystery of the kingdom of heaven is hidden away from them. The mystery of who God is according to revelation 10:7 is hidden from them.
- Revelation chapter 10:7 says ‘But in the days of the voice of the seventh Angel, when He shall begin to sound the mystery of God should be finished as He hath declared to His servant the prophets’.
- Thus, anybody God wants to save, He brings in. anybody He wants to destroy, he locks out. Outside are sinners, inside are the saved. Inside does not mean coming under the roof of the fellowship hall, inside means; being in the ARK OF CHRIST BY SURRENDERING THE TOTALITY OF WHAT MADE YOU A HUMAN BEING TO His leadership and control. Relying on Him, depending on Him and obeying His word.”
- If you have not surrendered the totality of what made you a human being to the leadership of God – APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BBHMHN] and His control, relying on Him, depending on Him and obeying His word, what are you then waiting for? Total destruction!
- Turn with me again to the message: ARE YOU THE PROMISED ONE TO COME OR DO WE WAIT FOR ANOTHER? Volume 1, page 175:121. “If what you have seen with your eyes, what you have heard with your ears cannot instill godly fear in you; you are a beast.
- Your heart has been smelt with hot iron. If what you have seen and heard cannot compel you to change your mind and heart; your heart has been smelt with hot iron. Amen.”
- PAGE 149:59-60 -“I am not sent to those whose hands are clean, legs clean, cloths clean, shoes clean; but hearts dirty, I AM sent to come and save liberally – minded people, who know they can do nothing to save themselves, they now depend on the creator of Heavens and earth to help them out.
- If you can help yourself, God will not help you. You are better than people that condemn you, finish.”
- The same message Volume 2, page 93:8-9 “I cannot forget that day God was romancing with Bishop Moses in Jerusalem and at the end of the day, something else was seen.
- Look at the photograph of the HEADSTONE! Who can believe that it was a human being wearing this same cloth? Even the congregation that surrounded me was not seen, He swallowed all in immortality.
- ALL that are destined for rapture are in that GODHEAD. Anybody that is not found there is perishing for you are either within or without, you are either clothed or naked. People will say ‘had I known! I have killed myself!’ while we that are fools will foolishly enter inside the kingdom in our foolishness, while those that are wise will wise their way out of the kingdom.”
- If what you have seen with your eyes, what you have heard with your ears cannot instill Godly fear to you, and cannot compel you to change your mind and heart, the all-important question is steering you in the face; WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
- Turn with me to the holy Qur’an; SURAH 48:5-7 [HILALI-KHAN TRANSLATION] “That he may admit the believing men and the believing women to Gardens under which rivers flow (i.e. paradise), to abide there in forever, and He may expiate from them their sins; and that is with Allah, a supreme success,
- And that He may punish the Munafiqun (Hypocrites), men and women, and also the Mushrikun (Polytheist, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the oneness of Allah and in His messenger Muhammad) men and women who think evil thoughts about Allah, for them is a disgraceful torment, and the Anger of Allah is upon them, and He has cursed them and prepared hell for them, and worst indeed is that destination.
- And to Allah belong the hosts of the heavens and the earth. And Allah is ever all-knower, all-wise.”
- JOB 27:8[KJV] “For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he may gain much, if God takes away his life?”
- For what is the hope of the hypocrite who knows the truth but lives a contrary life to the truth. Whatever he had gained from the people of God hypocritically, the Lord said, he must vomit all. What is such a person waiting for?
- Let us turn to the message: REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE. Preached by THE SON OF MAN during His morning alter on Monday 13th August, 2019. PAGE 4:1 “I am asking you. What is the hope of the hypocrite? What is the hope of the hypocrite?
- [Job 27:8] one that says one thing and does another. One that is in our midst, but living a life contrary to our message. One that receives the truth but lives the life of falsehood. One whose life is full of craftiness and deceit. What is His hope?”
- What is the hope of such a fellow? And what is he or she waiting for? Everybody should be very careful. What Allah is supposed to have around Him is His original creation and not fake, not counterfeit, and not imitation. This is the time you will ask yourself a question while I ask myself and equally supply the answer.
- It is not the question you ask yourself that determines what you will do but the reply you supply to that question.
- Anybody who said he is a child of God and cannot conduct himself in the way and manner our Lord Christ is conducting Himself, the person is an impersonator.
- William Marrion Branham said, “If you have the Spirit of Christ, which means you are a child of God, all your actions must depict Christ. But if you say you have the Spirit of Christ and your actions is speaking different from the character of Christ, you are a blasphemer and an impersonator and God can never hold you guiltless for blaspheming His name.
- You are claiming to be what you are not. Having the knowledge without putting it into practice is absolutely useless.”
- The reality is Christ – THE SON OF MAN – APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA. If Christ is not in you, glory not. If He is in you, His quality must be your quality.
- To you who the word of God is coming to this morning, how obedient are you to the word that has been coming to you all these years? Has it stopped you from committing evil?
- Did it stop you from evil thought, from your wrong way, from stiffneckedness, from complaining and murmuring? Yet you still pray that God should clothe you with immortal bodies.
There is always a Christ that is revealed in every dispensation. The duty of the people to whom Christ is revealed, is to pattern after Him. Patterning after Him means patterning after Christ in Him. Learn of the revealed Christ of your day.

THE SECRET OF OUR SALVATION LIES IN PATTERNING AFTER THE REVEALED CHRIST OF OUR DAY PREACHED ON SUNDAY, 9TH AUGUST 2020. PG 79:31
2
IF YOU ARE NOT PATTERNING AFTER CHRIST, YOU ARE LEAVING HIM BEHIND
Is there any unrighteousness in God? How can the unrighteous live with God eternally?
- Turn with me to the message: BEWARE OF STUBBORNNESS WHICH IS IDOLATRY. Volume 1 (FLEE FROM IDOLS PART3). Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday, 2nd December, 2018. Page 112:61-63 “That is why in the message, ‘FOLLOW ME AS I FOLLOW HIM, IMITATE ME AS I IMITATE CHRIST.’ ‘I AM YOUR LIVING EXAMPLE’. These are messages. If I give you any teaching you cannot practice, do not bother yourself, all you have to do is fix your eyes on me.
- If you see the way I am doing that thing, do it that same way, that is what God is demanding from you, for I am not a leader that stays behind to give instruction. I am always in front. If I am not your example, it then means I am not your own revealed Christ.
- To those who have accepted me as their own revealed Christ and Saviour, The Messiah, I am their living example; they work towards attaining my nature so that whether we are here on earth or beyond this life, we will stay together in harmony, in peace, no quarreling, we feel comfortable.
- For if I am not comfortable with you here, and you think I can be comfortable with you there, you are indirectly telling me that the grave will change your nature. Can death change your nature? Whatever you are here is what you will be there.”
- PAGE 116:72-73 “If you are not patterning after Christ, it then means you are leaving Him behind. To make sure it is very easy; seeing that not all will see Him alive, He gave out His word and Himself is Word for His Name is the word of God.
- So, if I cannot see Him alive, I have heard His word, I will now use His word to pattern my life for His word reveals both who He is and His conduct.”
- If you are not patterning after Christ – APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BBHMHN] it then means you are leaving Him behind. You are simply waiting for total and complete destruction.
- The same message: PAGE 46:37-39 “And THE VOICE woke me up. Reminding me that I am now running late and encouraged me to make haste to see whether some people might be saved.
- The voice said, ‘Son of Man, Arise don’t you know that your time is up? You are running behind schedule. Make haste, ROUND OFF the messages, peradventure somebody might be saved before my wrath will be fall the people of this generation, for I have vowed never to draw back.
- Any moment from now, my fury and indignation will be revealed upon the heads of all mankind here on earth. Make haste”.
- Then I understood the voice, made a plea. Please Lord, grant me more time. No reply till this morning. The elders I spoke to, I gave them the whole thing. Till this morning, I never received YES OR NO to my request. Then I will be stupid to relent. For that reason I went into action to tidy up things.”
- PAGE 48:42-47 “What He is doing now is this; the revelation of the hour is an indirect way of telling the people of this generation that have spurn this gospel, ‘Woe unto you, for what you are refusing was prophesied before now. All the prophets that come from the ELOHIM prophesied concerning this day.’ That is what is happening.
- Are they Jews, they prophesied about it. Are they gentiles, they prophesied about it. The Major Prophets notably Jesus Christ, Prophet Muhammad, Prophet Braham, all of them prophesied concerning this day. What is your reason for rejecting it? It is because you hated your life.
- And now you have seen that what you thought was falsehood has now been confirmed to be true and you rejected it all this while, how do you think you can find yourself in?
- It is stamping a documented paper. This is the final stage.
- That is what I am doing now using all the prophets to bring the whole truth to your knowledge. I am x-raying all and with it now, you can find your position.
- If you have believed all along, you will be rejoicing inside that you made no mistake, ‘Thank God I never turned this message down’. Even when you wanted to turn it down, there was something in you that was asking you why. Because it will tell you, ‘this is the only way, follow it.’ Do you have a better way? No better way. You have no option.
- But those that thought they have an option, where are they today? What was their reasons? So, there is something that is left in the Bride. Once I remove this, it is final.”
- Life and death are in the power of the mouth. Many destroyed themselves with what came out of their mouth, and also destroyed others who listened to them.
- You refused to inquire and know the God you are worshiping, because you hated yourself.
- Now that you have discovered that what you rejected is the truth, how do you think you can find yourself in?
- Our Lord God and master is x-raying everything using all the Prophets to bring the whole truth to your knowledge, for you to now find your position. To know where you are presently standing and waiting.
- Now, what is God aiming at? Let us get the answer in the same message; VOLUME 2 PAGE 6:6-7 “What is God aiming at? God is aiming at raising a people that will be blameless, unrebukeable, unreprovable, people that will be adjudged innocent in the midst of this crooked and perverse, perverted world full of injustice, and iniquity where you have found yourselves, I have found myself and He wants us to shine as beckon lights, as light glittering in darkness.
- That in a world that is as corrupt as we have it today, there could be somebody who could stand and say, ‘can anybody accuse me of any form of idolatry, stubbornness, rebellion and all worth not? Who is that man?’
- Why won’t you like to be in the number that will be counted innocent, guiltless, faultless, blameless, unreprovable? If it is not possible why giving you this teaching? I
- f it is not possible, has Christ not made it possible by living a shiny example and standing before us now? Because He has obeyed, He has become the author of eternal salvation to those who will obey Him.”
- Have you obeyed Him Christ – APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BBHMHN]? Judge yourself now so that He will not judge you again. Your obedience must not be halfhearted one, it must not be temporal, it must not be a makeup.
- You must perfectly obey Him and in your obedience, you remain faithful to the truth even at the point of death.
- We have no reasonable excuse because the great Elohim is no longer hiding. He has finally arrived here and is here now, behold Him in plain view: APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BBHMHN], the perfect example standing before us all.
- PAGE9:13-14 “We have no excuse in this generation. Tell me what we are going to use as our excuse? Every excuse we want to wreck up will turn out to work against us, if you must think, think of a better way of finding yourself obedience, to see whether you can correct the mistake you have been making all these years. Amen.
- This is last minute grace. This is last minute grace. If you correct this single error, you have corrected all because it is in this stubbornness that every unbelief, every evil habit, every rebellion both stealing, killing, cultism, arson, murder, it is from this particular evil, once you get rid of it the rest will run away from you.”
- It is better to say, God, please forgive me than to say God, investigate me. It is better to say, I need your Grace, I need your love than to say, investigate me.
- God knows what is happening in everybody’s heart, the same way He knows what is happening in every family. You can hide yourself from everybody but you cannot hide yourself from God.
- God created man to fulfill His own purpose, that is, man is God’s agency of fulfilling His purpose.
- There is a divine plan, a divine purpose for which God created you and I, He choose you and me and called us, to be fitted to that plan.
- You are going to be destroyed because you are removing yourself from God’s eternal purpose which He purposed for you.
- Turn with me again to the message:ARE YOU THE PROMISED ONE TO COME OR DO WE WAIT FOR ANOTHER? Volume 2. Page 121:44-45
“WARNING:- There is a need for warning. The Prophet has made it clearer; events prove it to be right that nothing remains but the translation of the saints. - We have seen all that were promised in our own day coming to pass, the only thing left is rapture, translation, putting on immortal body. If you are expecting anything greater than that, you will miss it.
- How is it going to happen? It will happen as promised, in a twinkling of an eye, at an hour the world knoweth it not, a secret and sudden event.”
- PAGE 127:62-63 “Looking at the whole world how beautiful it is, somebody might be thinking that the world is above human destruction or God’s destruction, but I want to say that the present world you are admiring is reserved by the spoken word,
- The first world was destroyed by the spoken word and by the spoken word this present world must be destroyed. The angels are already in the four corners of the world gathering the saints and at the same time gathering things that offend for destruction.”
- PAGE 129:67-73 “First Corinthians chapter 7 verses 31, ‘But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none.’ Do not allow your wives to be your gods again. Do not allow your husband to be your gods. Are you getting what I mean?
- I mean that this is not the time you will be consumed fully by your domestic activities to the neglect of your soul. It is not the time when you will be doing unnecessary arguments with people: ‘My husband, my husband, my wife, my wife,’ not this time.
- ‘…And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not abusing it; for the fashion of this world passeth away. KJV’.
- For the fashion of this world passeth away. If you are consumed by the fashions of this world, they are passing away with the passing time. God has made it clear that there is nothing in this life that has any guarantee of permanence.
- They are fizzling out. Having seen where we are, the promised signs are with us. The man that was promised to come has come; one that is sent to come and take us away is here.
- WE HAVE PHOTOGRAPHS AND WE ARE NOW WITH HIM LIVE. Everything is set, both the mechanics and dynamics, they are all set, only one thing remaineth.
- It has come to the point where the dead will bury the dead, yet he that wants to die does not pray for the war to end, like Bishop Nnachor. That day will not wait for you, that hour will not wait for you; for THE SON OF MAN will simply breeze in.
- Let it be known to you that He said that it must be on the first day of the week, did He give you the hour or the time THE SON OF MAN will breeze in?
- Moreover, God said that it is a matter of THE SON OF MAN coming only to make a proclamation, then that is the end.
- Do not wait for another notice or another announcement or another sign for the next thing you will hear is ‘He has come and He has gone’. Only those that are waiting at the approved place, those that are ready will go with Him. The rest will say ‘Had I known!’ why will you be among those that will say ‘If I had known!’.”
- If you do not want to be among those that will say ‘If I had known’, begin now to do the right thing. What will stop you from now? Why should we look for you in the kingdom without seeing you? What is that thing which you cannot forfeit for the sake of eternal life? What is more important than eternal life? Meditate on this.
- PAGE 134:80-81 “On this note brethren, I wish to remind you of the need for you to fulfill your promises, pay your vows and stick to your oath.
- If you are indebted to God, you are risking your life. He is not a man like you who can jest, for He earlier warned you that if you know you can speak and you cannot make it, do not ever open your mouth.
- It is better you keep quiet and be yourself than to speak and withdraw it. Even if it is a vow binding your soul, you have no right withdrawing it.”
- Our Lord and Master is talking to us as people whose hearts have been illuminated by the Gospel of Christ, the truth and nothing but the truth. The truth that transforms men and women hearts.
- If you are drunk in the truth, it must surely manifest in your daily character and life. Then, you are waiting for full and complete salvation. But anything otherwise, you are waiting for total and complete destruction.
- Let us turn to the message: GET READY FOR THE FINAL CALL. Page 86:44-49 “That is why, we are not here to fool ourselves or to fool our hearers.
- We give you the truth. We encourage you not to accept it because we are talking. We encourage you to do a lot of investigations so as to ascertain personally whether what you are receiving is truth or false, or whether it is being giving to you as truth with wrong motive, because oftentimes, you can give somebody the truth with wrong motive or impure motive. Sure!!!
- What is the essence of the gospel of Christ? It is nothing but to present you spotless in the sight of God.
- It is nothing but to make sure that the spirit of Christ dwells in you richly, presenting you as Christ Himself, [sure!!!] the original creature created in the image of God, [SURE!!!] spotless, without wrinkle or blemish in the sight of God. Amen!!!
- Do not die in this church as an unbeliever, as a hypocrite, otherwise, you are committing suicide [sure!!!]. This faith is the land of truth. But unfortunately, this truth is not meant for everybody.
- And each time truth is revealed, according to Acts of the Apostles, all that were ordained to salvation believed.
- All that were ordained to condemnation avoid the truth. [Sure!!!] Thus, if you are ordained to believe the truth, for there unto you are born. [Sure!!!].
- Whatever you are, whatever you are manifesting must be what you are born thereunto. And until you fulfill it, you will never have rest.”
- The resurrected body in the midst of the Bride is the one still small voice speaking in the midst of many voices. But His own is distinct and hidden in simplicity in the Bride. A voice away from all!
- PAGE 90:3 “If you are born to fulfill God’s will, you will rest at nothing, you will always be having that sense of non-fulfillment until you are sure and certain that you have done the will of the Father that sent you. [Sure!] For there unto you are born and you cannot do otherwise. Compelling you to do otherwise means helping you to kill yourself. Sure! Sure! Sure!”.
- PAGE 94:15-18 “Find out whether you are where you ought to be. Whether you are where you are meant to be, because if you are not meant to serve God, from creation, you are not ordained to serve God and you will be forcing yourself into God, you will be doing your conscience more harm than good.
- You will be complaining, you will be grumbling. You will be grudging. You will call correction hate. This is because you will like to have your way instead of allowing God to have His way.
- You will only be thinking that somebody is somewhere witch-hunting you. Nobody is witch-hunting you. Only that you are trying to be what you are not.
- The spirit of impersonation is at work in the world because we are in the end time. Too many impersonators [anti-Christ’s] have appeared. You can meet a spirit that resembles Christ, but it is not the spirit of Christ.”
- This is mandatory that you must find out whether you are in the right place where God ordained you to be. Not everybody was ordained to worship God.
- PAGE 96:22-23 “So, if you are born to go to church and celebrate church, that is where you will stop your journey. When that church you call Bride of Christ or whatever you want to call it will be destroyed together with the heathens inside it, you will be among those that will be destroyed.
- This is because God made it a gathering point where He will gather all of you and then teach you the way of life which will make you to be ushered into the kingdom of heaven.”
- PAGE 98:26-29 “So, you go to church to receive a teaching. Then, you go away and practice it.
- But today, people go to church to entertain themselves. If they want relaxation, they go to church. If they want entertainment they go to church. When they want help, they go to church. Every kind of people are in the church now with different motives.
- If they are looking for job, they go there. If they are looking for help they go there. So church has become a charitable organization – a motherless babies’ home. A place where the destitute is helped. Go to the church so as to get some help.
- It is no longer a situation where people go to church for salvation. No! The church is no longer the place where people receive teaching and Doctrines pertaining to life and godliness and then get eternal life.”
- All that are ordained to worship the true and living God, go to fellowship to receive teachings and Doctrines for the salvation of their souls, and those who are born to go to church and celebrate church cannot and will never worship the true and living God.
- PAGE 100:34-41 “If you are not ordained to be in this Bridal Faith, the last move God is making on earth, there is no way you can feel comfortable with all you are going to hear in this faith. [Amen!!!] For our teachings,, our lifestyle will always be provoking you to anger. [Sure!!!] You will be feeling highly disturbed.
- A sure sign that you are disturbed, you will be avoiding brethren, [sure!!!] avoiding fellowship, avoiding contact with anything doctrine of Christ, message of THE SON OF MAN, you would not like to hear them.
- They will be making you to feel very much uneasy. Why? It is not a part of you. Alleluia!!!
- Born of the same mother, but not of the same spirit. Begotten of the same earthly father, but not taking their origin from the same God.
- You are trying to fabricate, to manipulate yourself into Christ, but you are not born into Christ. If you are not born in my family, you are not my biological child.
- No matter how you try to manipulate it, you cannot fit in. you can never fit in. No matter how long you have stayed, you can stay in this faith, get married, have children; [YET] you are still a stranger to my household. [Sure!!!] Is it not true? That is pure truth!
- If you were not in God before the world began, you cannot be added to God along the way. [Sure!!!] You can be added to a group [but] you cannot be added to God. For all that were in Christ were in Him before the world began. So, they were born into Christ not into the church. [Sure!!!].
- If you are born into Christ, wherever Christ goes, you are going with Him. [Sure!!!].”
- I blame many of you because you have not for one day sat down to enquire about the faith you are in and how this most holy faith came down from heaven.
- The Almighty – The Son of Man – The Masquerade in His Mask – Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN] came down from heaven with His most Holy Faith. He is the one providing whatever we are enjoying today. Hence, if you are wise enough, all you have to do is to stay behind Him-the guide who is our masterpiece.
- Follow me to the message: – THE YEAR OF MY REDEEMED IS COME. Preached by The Son of Man. On the 10th of January 1999. PAGE 29: 6-7 “The instruction says: ‘Let us walk close to the guide’. I think there is wisdom in walking close to the guide. Nevertheless, when you start to interpret grace in your own way; surely you over take the Holy Spirit and get lost.
- Note, I believe in ETERNAL SECURITY to the extent that is revealed to me. I do not know the extent that it was revealed to you. The extent that it was revealed to me showed me that people’s names will be blotted out in the end from the book of life.”
- Our Lord and master said “Talk of their names being there in the book of life, sure, their names are there but in the end it will be blotted out”
- PAGE 30:10-12 “In other words, if you do not want your name to be blotted out in the end, please line up with the guide you are not left without a shepherd.
- There is one, who is watching over you. If He is shouting and shouting, and shouting, find out why He is shouting. If you harden your heart and close your ears, surely you are perishing. If you enjoy grace in the flesh, you get lost at the end. That day I will say, ‘I told you but you did not take my word seriously’.
- I HAVE TOLD YOU THAT REASONING THE WORD OF GOD PRODUCES NOTHING BUT UNBELIEF. FOR IF A MAN SITS DOWN TO REASON THE WORD OF GOD, HE WILL SEE REASONS WHY HE MUST NOT BELIEVE. THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN REASON THE WORD OF GOD AND BECOME A BELIEVER. WHEN YOU BELIEVE, ALL THINGS BECOME POSSIBLE BUT WHEN YOU DO NOT BELIEVE, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO PRACTICE WHAT YOU HAVE HEARD. Let us not condemn ourselves before His presence that we have heard the Good News, the glad tidings, we echoed amen to all we heard and yet, we are lost in the end. That will be very, very disastrous.

WATCH OUT FOR DANGEROUS DOGS PREACHED 7TH MARCH 1999; PG. 9:12, PG.10:15-16

IF YOU HARDEN YOUR HEART AND CLOSE YOUR EARS, SURELY YOU ARE PERISHING
I want to see this church in a sober mood this year. We have entertained ourselves enough. I think we are tired of that entertainment.
- If you are not tired of that entertainment, you had better go to Grace of God Church. Let us bend down and prepare ourselves for what is ahead of us. Anything can happen anytime from now.”
- If you harden your heart and close your ears, surely you are perishing for the shepherd, the guide, the Holy Ghost, the comforter knows all that is needed from us the Israel of the Lord.
- We do not know Him in the flesh, we are looking at the Elohim, we are hearing from the Elohim.
- PAGE 75:9-10 “To show that He knows the way, before you He came down, revealed Himself in the pillar of cloud so that He will remove your eyes from the flesh and look at the ELOHIM.
- Now, we do not know Him in the flesh, whatever He is we do not want to know, we are looking at the ELOHIM. This is the only way we can make it now, otherwise, one day somebody may challenge His instruction, somebody will give reason(s) why he must go back to Nkpor, some will give reasons why it must be at Omagba, some maybe asking questions; ‘What about other local churches?’ I continue.”
- When the Elohim came down in the pillar of cloud, He removed our eyes from the flesh and pointed to Himself who dwell in the flesh. So, get it very clear, it is the Elohim we are seeing, it is the Elohim we are hearing from, and no other.
- Now, do you know God? Do you know Him by divine revelation? Who is Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN] to you? If you cannot give a sure and certain answer to this questions, then the next verse we are reading is not for you.
- PAGE 97:68 “Do you know God? The vengeance is for you. Have you obeyed the Doctrine of our Christ? If you have obeyed, you have escaped. One, you have known God, the punishment is not for you. You have believed the doctrine of Christ, the punishment is not for you. I just thank God, I think I can say Hurrah! Let me thank God who had given me a believing heart.”
- Our God is taking vengeance on those that do not know Him and do not obey His message, the Gospel of Christ they will be punished with everlasting destruction from His presence.
- ISAIAH 63:4[KJV] – “For the day of vengeance is in my heart and the year of my redeemed is come.”
- ISAIAH 66:14[KJV] – “When you see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like grass; the hand of the Lord shall be known to His servants, and His indignation to His enemies.”
- PAGE 65:52 – “Note, it says that when we see the year of the redeemed and the day of God’s vengeance, our hearts will rejoice for He has come to avenge us of our enemies. He has come to set us free.”
- PAGE 66:56-62 – “We will be rejoicing because we are saved, we are the redeemed of the earth, our redemption has been made complete but while we are rejoicing, some will be sorrowing. Those that are rejoicing over us today, that day sorrow will fill their hearts.
- However, as for many of us that are sorrowing today, that day we shall be comforted. Then that scripture will come to pass – ‘Blessed are they that mourn in righteousness for they shall surely be comforted’.
- I will even put it this way, that the year of comfort of the saints is come because when we shall see the mighty hand of God here on earth in vengeance, in indignation against those that have refused the gospel of the revealed Christ, the revealed word of our day, surely our hearts will be gladdened that at least God has kept His word, at least that we have not believed in vain.
- Seeing those that are rejoicing today will be having their sorrow that time. We that are sorrowing today will be rejoicing that day. In other words, everybody will be answering “Endwell”.
- I better sorrow now and rejoice that day than to rejoice today and get sorrow that day. It is the day of the Lord’s visitation upon the earth.
- What I am telling you is not too far from you, we have rolled into it already. Prophet Habakkuk saw it and said, ‘Though it tarries, wait for it, for it must surely come’.
- People thought the Prophet was playing but he was not playing. If we should go further there, he went further to tell us when that thing will come to pass. It would come to pass at the time WHEN THE RIGHTEOUS SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.
- Get me right, the Lord will not come to take His people away until He set a sign on earth among His people, that is why He was asking us in the Book of Saint Luke chapter 18 saying, ‘When I shall come, shall I find faith on the earth?’
- Note, He was referring to His people on earth; He was referring to the saints. God cannot be expecting faith from the heathens. Can He? No!”
- The word will not come to take His people away until He set a sign on earth among His people. What is that sign? The just shall live by faith.
- A true seedof God develops implicit faith in God. Remember, faith in God goes beyond paying lip service.
- You must be sure and certain where you are placing your faith. You must place your faith in the revealed word of God, Christ – Apostle Peter Odoemena [BBHMHN] for there are some people who are placing their faith on signs and wonders to the neglect of the word of God, wherein lies eternal life.
- Turn with me to the message: DISAPPOINTED EXPECTATION. Volume 1. Preached by THE SON OF MAN. On Sunday, 22nd December, 2019. PAGE 67:13-14 – “Make sure you place your faith right. Your faith should not rest on any other thing than the revealed, engrafted word of God which is able to sanctify you and give you a place by the faith of Christ.
- You must know where you have been fixing your faith. So any faith placed outside the revealed word which is Christ revealed in your day is a misplaced faith, for the word has been made flesh and it is now dwelling among you.”
- The big masquerade that we are seeing is APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BBHMHN]. That is His name. But the person putting it on is the SON OF MAN. It was from Him that He the Supreme Being emerged. See the Lord in the Lord.
- Turn with me to the message: APPOINTMENT & CONFIRMATION BEFORE PROMOTION. Volume 1. Preached by THE SON OF MAN, on Sunday, 28th June, 2020. PAGE 75:79-80 – “The big masquerade that we are seeing is Apostle Peter Odoemena. That is His name. But the person putting it on is THE SON OF MAN. Have you seen it? Was it not from Him [APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA] that He [THE SUPREME BEING] emerged?
- When He said, ‘I can do nothing of myself’, is it not so? He shouted and cried, ‘You know me. You know where I was born and how I was born. You know my parents, but there is one who is in me whom you do not know and that is the one I am introducing to you, and that is the spirit of truth the world cannot receive because the world does not know who He is.’ “Is it a lie?”
- PAGE 77:84-85 – “You see why whoever that does not believe, trust and confide in Him is condemned already. But if you have believed, trusted in Him with the resolve never to draw back, He said, ‘Now, you possess ETERNAL LIFE’.
- Now! Not yesterday. Instantly there, like the rogue on the cross. Immediately, he got the offer because he got the right revelation of who was crucified with him and gave Him the due honour and respect, He made a request and the Master answered all at once.”
- Have you gotten the right revelation of who is always sitting with you and discussing? Always standing and speaking to you, whether on phone or physically? Have you always given Him the due honour and respect He deserved? We must all answer this question as individuals.
- PAGE 87:7-9 – “Are you following THE CLOUD or the CROWD? Are you moving with THE CLOUD revealed in the midst of THE BRIDE or are you moving with THE CROWD?
- Are you moving with THE WORLD? Is the world influencing you? Are you doing it the way the world is doing it or are you doing it the way THE CLOUD commanded it should be done?
- And THE CLOUD is the presence of God among His people in all the ages, revealed in Human form.”
- Turn with me once again to the message: DISAPPOINTED EXPECTATION. VOLUME 1. PAGE 77:31-34 – “By the revelation of the word of God in your own day, the revelation of CHRIST, by your belief of the truth, you are not too far from the kingdom of heaven, but one thing remaineth.
- What is that one thing? Manifestation of truth in your personal life. One thing remaineth. You have the knowledge; you have believed the truth, but to manifest the truth has become increasingly difficult.
- Why? You stopped at Satan’s level. Satan was not too far from the kingdom of heaven. He missed it narrowly by whiskers. And then vowed a vow that nobody will ever find himself in paradise.”
- [Iblis (Satan)] said: “O my Lord! Because you misled me, I shall indeed adorn the path of error for them (mankind) on the earth, and I shall mislead them all.
- “Except your chosen, (guided) slaves among them.” [SURAH 15:39-40 HILALI-KHANS]”
- If you are waiting for the full and complete salvation, you must cross that one thing that remaineth and that is, manifestation of truth in your personal life.
- Turn with me to the message:JUSTIFY YOUR DIGNIFIED INCLUSION IN ADAM’S RIGHTEOUS DESCENDANTS EXPLAINED. VOL. 1. Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday 3rd April, 2022. PAGE 49: 36-39 – “Only one thing remaineth; to take away the residue of men. Only one thing remaineth in the Bride for your translation. One thing remaineth. And that one thing was touched yesterday here.
- Our inability to pattern after our leader, INSTRUCTOR AND GUIDE has remained our greatest undoing. And we have remained intransigent until we have rolled into the most difficult period when it is becoming absolutely impossible for anybody to turn over to a new leaf.
- Even to recognize your fault now is not easy. Every man adjudges himself right in his own eyes. And that is why the Queen of paradise finished her assignment and left.
- Being the first seed THE SON OF MAN planted, she became the first THE SON OF MAN harvested through death, with the promise of resurrection, while some will remain, with THE SON OF MAN having His eyes upon them, watching to know whether they are really what they are claiming to be and to make sure there is no mistake at all.”
- Our inability to pattern after our leader, instructor and guide has remained our greatest undoing. And we have remained intransigent – until we have rolled into the most difficult period when it is becoming absolutely impossible for anybody to turn over to a new leaf. Even to recognize your fault now is not easy.
- Why not pause and seriously meditate on this.
- PAGE 56:55 – “So I am saying that one thing remaineth in the Bride and that thing that remaineth in the Bride is there because of pride and envy. Pride and envy.”
- The thing that remaineth in the bride is our inability to pattern after our leader, instructor and guide because of pride and envy.
- And the Lord our Master taught us to be jealous after a Godly sort and not to be envious. Rather, we should try to learn to follow.
- Turn with me to the message: JUSTIFY YOUR DIVINE INCLUSION IN ABRAHAMS RIGHTEOUS FAMILY. Volume 1. Preached By The Son of Man on Sunday, 20th June, 2021. PAGE 56:72 – “If you do not have a good heart you will be selective in obeying God. Every selective believer of the word of God does not have a good heart towards God.”
- For your bad heart will attract calamity; disappointment, despair, disdain and eternal death to you, and eternal separation from God.
- PAGE 89:76-78 – “Do you have a good heart? It is a treasure. You have a good heart? It is a treasure.
- To these people who have good hearts, righteous descendants of Adam, God said, ‘I have given them believing hearts to believe the truth.’ Anything that is erroneous, their hearts rejects it.
- Their hearts are so much purer than to behold anything ungodly; than to admit anything unrighteous, for they proceeded from the righteous lineage. Am I making sense?”
- PAGE 98:21 – “Do you have a good heart towards God? Do you have a good heart towards one another? Take note! Very very essential, for God delights Himself in people with good hearts. If you do not have a good heart, you will never obey God even in the minutest details; in the least detail.”
- Having a good heart towards God and towards one another is very, very essential because God delights Himself in people with good hearts. Take note of this.
- JUSTIFY YOUR DIVINE INCLUSION IN ABRAHAMS RIGHTEOUS FAMILY. Volume 2. PAGE 36:7-8 – “From the way things are happening in you and around you, where do you think you can trace your own Ancestral origin? Your Ancestral Genealogy? I mean the lineage from where you think you proceeded.
- Is it from the righteous descendant or the unrighteous? What is happening in you and what you are manifesting shows the evidence.”
- PAGE 46:39-43 – “You are either a child of God or a child of perdition. Today, we have children of perdition.
- That is why God said we should be careful that we do not mingle with people of disobedience, for there is a spirit that worketh among the children of disobedience where in the devil was disobedient from the very beginning.
- ‘And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; where in time past ye walked according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.
- Among whom also we all had our conversation in time past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath even as others. [EPHESIANS 2:1-3 KJV]
- ALWAYS QUERYING God. Always looking for excuses and answers to give to prove that he was not doing wrong. A liar from the beginning. Be very careful.
- I am revealing all these things so that by your characteristics, you will know your descent, for Christ is identified by His characteristics. The devil is also identified by his own characteristics. One differs from the other. Am I making sense?”
- PAGE 110:34-37 – “Let me tell you. If you do not proceed from the righteous lineage of Adam, you are lost. You are either from the righteous lineage or from the unrighteous lineage.
- Forget what people are doing and the way they are behaving. Let it not give you concern. But let your own life; your daily life give you the greatest concern in relationship with your own God.
- If I can succeed today in placing these things right in your heart, I have saved you throughout eternity.
- Whosoever that will open your eyes of understanding; your conscience illuminated up to this height where you are now, I believe loves you. He does not want you to perish. Truly speaking, He does not want you to perish. Amen!”
- The Almighty God – APOSTLE PETER ODOEMENA [BBHMHN] that has opened your eyes of understanding illuminated up your conscience to this great height where you are now, He loves you and does NOT want you to perish.
- So what should be your attitude towards your God who loves you so much? It is good for you to love Him back. What we do, is to reciprocate the love of God towards us for He first loved us.
- Turn with me to the message:APPOINTED & CONFIRMATION BEFORE PROMOTION. Volume 1. Preached by The Son of Man on Sunday, 28th June, 2020. PAGE 61:38-46 – “So, love goes with appreciation. Did you get the message? That is why when you love somebody; to pattern after Him becomes easy.
- But if you hate somebody, to pattern after that person you hate is difficult. That is why God said, ‘if you love me, keep my words.’
- If you love me, behave the way I behave, because when you believe what I believe and you do not behave the way I behave, you have not believed. Every man’s character is influenced, dictated by his belief. True or false?
- That is why; by their fruits you shall know them. That is how I know those that are hypocrites; those who are milling around me because they want to get one thing or the other from me.
- They can preach this word. They can eat with me, they can sleep with me, but they can never live my life because they do not love my person. They love my materials. They love my counsel. But talk of patterning their lives after me, they will not.
