2ND SEPTEMBER 2017 At THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD, NSUKKA By APOSTLE PETER
ODOEMENA THE SON OF MAN THE SUPREME
INTELLIGENCE” © BRIDE OF CHRIST MINISTRY WORLD-WIDE
Prayer
Let us bow down our
heads and then thank Him.
2.
Our heavenly Father, we thank you for your love. It is
just your
Love that is
propelling our actions. Your love alone has lifted us up even when there was
nothing that could lift us up, your love lifted us up.
3.
Your love has gathered us here. May your love see us
through. We are depending on your love and mercy. There is no other thing we
are asking other than [that] your love and mercy should project towards every
of your Elect globally, oh God.
4.
We are not asking for your judgment for we cannot stand
that. We are asking for your love and mercy Father to shine upon our brother
and our sister that we are witnessing, oh God, their wedding here today. May
your love and mercy sustain them.
5.
May your love and mercy be their guiding principle. In
everything in this life, may your love and mercy be prevalent in their heart,
in their home forever and ever.
6.
Lord we thank you. Let your love and mercy project towards
all that are coming here today. Many might be on the highways this hour. We are
asking for your love and mercy upon them.
7.
Concerning those who are out, who have vowed even to
destabilized this family, to destabilize this wedding, to cause sorrow and
pains, Lord I bring them before you. Reward them, oh God, according to their
desires that the residue of men will learn to fear, honour and reverence you
forever.
8.
Give no breathing space to any spirit, to any being that
will
oppose this wedding in
any form of shape. Let thy Holy Spirit holds sway over all flesh that will
attend this wedding today. Use it, oh God, to revive our families.
9.
Use it oh God to teach those that are coming here for the
first time on the reason why you instituted marriage. Even those that are yet
to marry, may they never joke with what you will say here today. Our ears are
open, our hearts are open for we have come to the realization that there is no
other instrument we can use to build, oh God, a formidable home in Christ if
not your Word.
10.
So, as your Word will come forth, grant your Word entrance
into our hearts and from there Lord, reform and refine us. Make us better
individuals in your sight that we may run godly homes, raise godly children to
the glory of your name.
11.
Even while we will be going back to our homes from where
we came, you that brought us here, be there for us. We give you all the praise,
all the glory for the victory belongs to you. Let your Spirit remain in this
Camp.
12.
We honour you; we bow down before you because we believe
you have heard our prayers through Christ our Lord we pray. Amen.
INTRODUCTION
Let our daughter come
in. Let nothing stand on the way. Sing with My own tune. Forget about Nsukka. I
do not know the way you sing it in your own Local Assembly. Sing with My own
tune. Wait until I land.
2.
You are all happily welcome here. It is wonderful. It is
glorious. Brother Onyema! Today should be your happiest day. Our daughter
Afoma, today should be also your happiest day.
3.
To every family here, even if you do not want to, please
try to adjust your minds very well. Be happy. Rejoice with them. Rejoice with
those that are rejoicing and whatever that causes them to rejoice must surely
come your way.
4.
But if you are not rejoicing with them, you are angry,
reasons best known to you, I wonder whether you want them to be sorrowing.
Remember, whatever you are wishing others is coming back to you whether you
like it or not.
5.
I am very happy that I am alive physically and spiritually
not only to witness but to be a partaker of today’s ceremony. I am very happy.
It is a priceless ceremony.
6.
Too many forces came out fully to oppose this marriage,
even using human agents, using everything, but God stood firmly and said,“No! E
no go work.” God frustrated all!
7.
The Almighty God frustrated all Satan’s attempt to mar
this ceremony. And today, eyes have not only seen but ears have heard. Let it
be noised abroad that whatever that seemeth impossible was made possible
because God is with us. If God is with us, who can be against us?
8.
I really thank God. I am standing here because I know that
whenever He comes to any scene that marks the end of the trouble. I don’t care
the nature it assumes. But the moment God appears on the scene, that marks the
end. Sister Egbuna and co-, you are improving every day. Amen.
1
I
AM THE resurrection and the life
You see, at the last
wedding ceremony I attended in Lagos, there was a sound of a thunder blast. What
happened? Almost everybody ran away. But I stood My ground and watched.
2.
I said, “Science is improving every day.” Well, this amber
light. If I should interpret it, this is THE LIGHT OF HIS GLORY. It is not a
destructive light.
3.
If I notice you are not happy, you are not praising God,
you are not giving Him glory, you would not be here. Give glory to the Lord
that is your whole duty.
4.
If you are not ready to praise God, He is able to command
even the lilies to praise Him. When God is passing, the grasses, the lilies in
the forest, they are all waving their hands because God is good. Worthy to be
praised, worthy to be worshipped.
5.
Even if there is no other salutation, seeing My face here
today, it is the greatest miracle. I cannot remember the last day I
fellowshipped with Nsukka and Opi. I cannot know the exact year.
6.
They may have it in their record but as for Me, it’s been
long. Not because I never desired to fellowship with them. No! It is because I
saw something very dangerous in their midst. I made attempts to put the house
in order, even the two houses.
7.
At a point, I dragged all of them to Enugu, a neutral
ground, to enable Me see whether one person could be saved. I watched them,
after a while, I noticed that they were too much inclined to domestic politics,
village politics, national politics and religious politics. Hence, what they
were producing by My own assessment were nothing but thorns and thistles.
8.
Hence, they became injurious to their fellow brethren. I
withdrew My spirit, not permanently but for a while. And from that day till
now, they have been suffering it all round. All round! Both Nsukka and Opi.
9.
There is no family that never felt the brunt of My
withdrawal. No matter how they laboured and laboured both spiritually and
physically, they remain standing still.
10.
As
it has always been in Me, I told you, I am the self existing one. I do not need
you. I do not need any human being, But there is no human being that can see
life without Me.
11.
Without
Me, no being in this generation, even in generation gone by will see light. All
that died were buried. But they were there waiting for My day. For I hold the
resurrection and the life in My hands. Whether you believe it or not.
12.
I know where I went yesterday. I know the personalities
that received Me yesterday, kept Me talking for over four hours. And at the
end, everywhere was calm. They are notable personalities. In academics, they
have their fair share. In societal status, you can never come near any of them.
13.
They are the pillars of this nation. They were stood
because they needed help. And they have made serious sacrifices to things that
are no god and self-acclaimed men of God that are everywhere, but the
difference was made very clear yesterday. That is not My testimony.
14.
My testimony is: The whole members of the Bride in Nigeria
put together, you are not up to one-tenth of the response globally to the
Bridal website. I say you are not up to one over one hundred of the people I
have worldwide.
15.
Tell Me if there be any village in the world where I am
not there. I say village in the whole world, that village does not exist. Thus,
I do not need you. I better say it loud and clear.
16.
I wanted to stay back from this wedding. I almost
committed it into the hands of Apostle Ojiakor and the rest. But something
struck Me. I will offer Me the opportunity to tell Nsukka and Opi My mind
before their visitors will come.
17.
For that reason, I enjoined you to be here, if it is
possible, 9 o’clock so that I will address you first then go into the wedding
proper.
18.
Can you imagine the Son of Man leading the Bride and the
Bridegroom? It is because I want to hasten up.
19.
And I know they need the Message for which cause they
decided to invite Me. The message is not for heathen, it message is for those
that fear and honour the Lord. Of what business will the heathen serve Me?
Absolutely nothing! Yes, absolutely nothing!
20.
I am here because the couples invited My presence to
officiate. From their wedding card, they said they made Me the host. I
denounced it because a man that is preparing seriously to bury his late mother
should not be assigned to dig the grave.
21.
Somebody is busy preparing the burial of his late mother
and you assign him to be one of those that will be digging the grave. Is it
possible? No, no, no, no. it is a wrong assignment. But nobody died.
22.
If I should be the host, who will host Me? How can I be
the host over an event that is taking place in a Local Assembly that claims to
be in the Faith of the Son of Man? What will they be? They will now be My
guest.
23.
I will come all the way from Onitsha to be a host and
then, the owners of the household will be My guest. They will be strangers,
then I will be the landlord if it is possible. Stop turning thing upside down,
it is not good.
24.
Straighten your life, straighten
your mind and your attitude will be straightened in the sight of God. The
moment you are in error, every step you take will be taken in error. But when
you correct it, your pathways will be straightened out.
25.
I thank all of you who challenged yourself by defiling all
your noble, noble activities even some appointments you booked to be here
today. Whatever might be your reasons for coming is what you will hear, is what
you will see, it is what you will get. Amen.
26.
If you are coming to hear that the wedding is cancelled,
put it inside your pocket. You have missed calculated. If I wanted to cancel, I
would not be here since yesterday monitoring, sending people here yesterday
night to come and see things. Sending people to Nsukka to go and see things and
then give Me a feedback.
27.
I was here as early as 1: 00pm yesterday. Well, let Me
thank those who freely, in love volunteered their services. Let Me also thank
those who rendered their own grudgingly, grumbling.
28.
Let Me also thank those who say
over their dead bodies that they might be here. You will not die; you will live
and see us finish with the wedding. Come back to the dedication of the new baby.
29.
I will not die but live and declare the goodness of God,
amen. I will sing of the mercies of the Lord. With My heart and my mouth, shall
I declare, God’s faithfulness to all generation.
30.
Let Me warn from henceforth,
carry My warning to your fellow brethren. Please, love yourself. There is no
other commandment the Lord Jesus Christ left before he vanished. You show love
one to another. by so doing, people that come into contact with you will know
that you are My disciples indeed. There is no law against love.
31.
Wherever love exists, selfless
services are rendered to one another not as a duty but in love. Anything be it
service or otherwise, you are rendering to one another and it is not propelled
by love, it then means it is a duty, it is cumbersome, it is boring, filled
with complaining, murmuring, grumbling and grudging. And it is evidenced in the
output. It is easily seen in the output.
32.
Just like I started singing here,
let no man fool you, God is not deceived. Your face is the window of your mind.
Your face is a reflection of your inner feelings. Amen.
2
THE PARADOX
To God be the glory. I
will live and you will live that you might see how the Son of Man will end it
all, because the end will tell you who started it.
2.
Of course, those that are already in Me and I in them,
they are already relaxed. But many are struggling to find their way into the
Son of Man because it is not easy. It is not an easy road. It is not an easy
road. Amen.
3.
Now, I want you to look up here. We are about to declare
the whole thing open as we reverence the Lord who gave us journey mercies to be
here.
4.
I want to leave an
indelible impression in the hearts of all that will see My face here today. And
I want you to see especially those that have been with Me from the very
beginning that I have remained what I am.
5.
In spite of all your
insinuations, I am what I am. Your slurs, your slander, your half-truth, your
innuendos, I have remained what I am, immovable, unshakable. It is easier to
dislocate and dislodge mount Arafat than to dislocate and dislodge the Son of
Man. My foundation is not here.
6.
I know where I came from;
I know why I am here even till now. I have over stayed for the sake of some not
for the sake of all. I am striving to see whether I can save some, not all.
7.
I know you know Me, you
know where I was born, your know where I was bred. But there is one in Me whom
you do not know, who sent Me here. And My food is to do His will and accomplish
it.
8.
Let us go to the ground of truth. If you want to be a part
of this, if you are a minster, I will like you to come over here with a
microphone behind Me and make sure you read very loudly – straight to the
point.
9.
I want to have all the translations here. Note it, reading
the Bible is not a ministry. I needed an interpreter but I changed My mind. I
can speak the central Igbo very plainly even more than anybody here.
10.
But I have noticed that it will not help Me neither will
it help anybody. I will try as much as I can, at least, to go between the
middle to reach you in the language and level you will understand so that in
the end, you will give Me a name.
11.
In the end, you will give Me a name. I will not give
Myself a name, you will give Me a name depending on how I have imparted to your
life either positively or negatively.
12.
Let it be known to all and sundry that I am not here to
make any convert. No! I do not have a single convert. I do not have a single
convert. I am not here for a crusade. No! I am not here to exhibit My oratory.
No!
13.
I am here for a purpose to lay a
formidable foundation for a family I am very much interested in.
14.
I am a stake holder in this
family. And I am all out to give them that which I have given My daughters that
are married. For which cause, I go to bed with My wife and have real quiet
night.
15.
So, I will like Sister Moses and
family to go to bed today and then sleep quietly. Even the spirit of Bishop
Moses will be glad that I am here today. The spirit will rest because that
which I promised, I will fulfill here.
16.
So, I am not here because Opi or Nsukka invited Me. If
they had invited Me, they would have given Me a place to place My heard. I
would have been residing in their homes or wherever they say I should be.
17.
But I pitched tent o where I choose because I invited
Myself to fulfill My own obligation to the family because I am a part of it. If it crumbles, My name will be in the fore
front but it will never crumble.
18.
Let Me tell you something. If you trust and have
confidence in your father who happens to be the pilot piloting the air plane
where you are sitting down as a passenger. No matter the trouble in the mid
air, no matter the alarm your father is raising, as long as He is in the
cockpit, you do not need to panic. Place your heard on the pillow, have your
rest.
19.
He that knows the end from the beginning is here. That is
why, wherever He is, there the eagles will gather for He is the carcass.
20.
Let us go to the Bible which is the language many will
understand. You are mixed, if I should talk to your without the Bible, many
might be thinking I am telling them stories.
21.
But from the biblical point of view, today, you will know
whether we are celebrating marriage or boyfriend-girlfriend. Because I cannot
be a party to celebrating boyfriend-girlfriend. Mere human association. No!
22.
I am here to institute something because whatever God
does, last forever. Nothing can be added nor subtracted because God is Eternal.
Whatever God does is eternal.
23.
That is why I am here, by the time I will come down, you
will re-examine your marriage. That which you are calling marriage, you will
know whether it is marriage or not.
24.
We go to the Scriptures. I will read randomly. Not
scriptures you have not been hearing but scriptures you are conversant with.
But you never have the right spirit to assimilate them.
25.
In the interest of those who do not know Me, today might
be the first time you are coming into contact with Me, you are happily welcome.
Do Me a favour and do yourself a service.
26.
Try to have a plain sheet, a biro pen where you will jot
every Scripture I will quote, so that when you get home, you crosscheck using
your own Bible to know whether I misinformed you.
27.
I do not belong to any Church. I do not belong to any
association or cult. I am a freeman, a free radical. A mad man has no home. If
you do not see Me as a normal human being, see Me as an abnormal human being.
And I chose to be abnormal.
28.
Take your pen, take your papers and listen to the abnormal
man. A man that is out of his senses! Yes! So that when you get home, feel free
and crosscheck. If I should misinform you, what will be My gain? If I should
deceive you, what will be My profit? Thus, I am here for the truth and nothing
but the truth.
29.
Get me Living Bible translations for clearer understanding.
I will make use of those that contain today’s English. If I should read King
James, many may query it. But let me use one that is universal. Amen.

THE HEAVENLY MESSENGER
First Thessalonians
chapter 2, I want to introduce Myself. You read verse 4 through 5, Living Bible.
The guest preacher is about to introduce who He is. If you cannot see Me,
recognize Me from the Word, you will miss My mission. Am about to introduce
Myself.
2.
“For we speak as messengers from God trusted by him to tell the truth.”
3.
We speak as messengers from God, trusted by God to speak
the truth. Not trusted by human beings. Not messengers from human beings. I am
not a manmade messenger.
4.
If I am a manmade messenger, I will be speaking to suit
your taste. To please you, maybe to enable you clap hands for Me or to give Me
money or to become your friend which I can never be.
5.
I am introducing Myself. If you know where I come from,
know whose Messenger I am, and He must tell Me to be courageous enough to speak
the truth without looking at anybody’s face.
6.
For that reason, I can never compromise with any flesh.
Neither will I look at your faces. No! Whatever you may think you are, put it
inside your pocket. I see you as ordinary casket. I see you as ordinary casket.
Finish!
7.
“For we speak as messengers from God trusted by him to tell the truth.
8.
We change His message not one bit to suit the taste of
those who hear it. For we serve God alone who examines our hearts deepest
thoughts…”
9.
We serve God alone who examines our hearts deepest
thoughts. He knows our motive. We do not change His message not even one bit to
suit the taste of our hearers. For we are messengers from God, sent by God,
trusted by God to tell the truth. Not manmade, not Church messenger. Not
General Overseer of a business center in the name of Jesus Christ. No!
10.
Once I introduce Myself, you
begin to know what to expect from Me. I am for peace, but whenever I opened My
mouth, My words are for war.
11.
HOWEVER, sons and daughters of
God love to hear Me speaking. Yes, for I have taught them to cushion hard
truths.
12.
They have developed strong
muscles, strong shoulders, strong heads to shoulder the truth No matter how
heavy.
13.
I have taught them that any drug
that is not bitter is not effective. Effective drugs must be bitter. HENCE,
they have learned to swallow bitter drugs. Amen.
14.
Often times, My Messages may be caustic. They may have
death aroma. However, to the saints, they have sweet life aroma. My Message is
very bitter in the mouth, but when you take in, it stimulates your appetite. It
becomes a healing Message.
15.
We do not even change His Message one bit to suit the
taste of our hearers.
16.
“Never once did we try to win you with flattery, as you very well know…”
17.
We will never flatter you so as to win you. Thus, do not
expect anything flattering. I will not flatter you, whether Brother Onyema or
the wife or the parents. I have not even flattered anybody even in time past
for I know the awful implications of flattery.
18.
Job said, “I know not how to flatter any man. For if I do
that, my God will surely take Me away.” Thus, do not expect flatter.
19.
“Never once did we try to win you with flattery, as you
very well know And God knows we are not just pretending to be your friends so
that you would give us money.”
20.
Today, we see too many who have even become grievous
wolves in sheep clothing, but come out to pretend that they love their flock so
as to collect money from them. They pretend to be friends to their flock, to
their hearers in other that they may extort money from them.
21.
For if they should exhibit the real thing they are,
everybody will be on the run. These are those that are being used for rituals
here and there by their trusted friends who claim to be pastors and men of God;
only to gather them for ritual in different forms. I do not need to go there. Let
Me face My real task for today.
22.
‘As for praise, we have never asked from you…”
23.
As for praise, I do not need it. Do not clap hands for Me.
Do not call Me good man or bad man. Keep your praise with yourself. You begin
to wonder the type of preacher our Brother Oyenma has invited.
24.
I said that I will introduce Myself through the Word. If
you cannot recognize Me through the Word, your staying here may be boring to
you. You may be wishing that I should leave.
25.
There is no way you can gather for wedding and invite Me
without expecting the food which the Son of Man giveth. If you expecting
rice and beans wait, we have plenty of that.
26.
But if you are intelligent and wise, you will be ready for
the meat, for the food which the Son of Man giveth which endureth to
everlasting life. For He alone has the Father sealed and sent.
27.
“As for praise, we have never asked for it from you or anyone else.
Although as Apostles of Christ we certainly have the right to some honour from
you, but we were as gentle among you…”
28.
We were so gentle among you
29.
“…as a mother feeding and caring for her own children.”
30.
We handle you with tender mercy as a mother shows tender
mercy to her loving kid.
31.
St. John 3 verse 34. Living Bible. “Those who believe him discover
that God is a fountain of truth…”
32.
Those that believed Him, H.I.M. what did they discover?
GOD IS A FOUNTAIN OF TRUTH. I want to introduce who I am.
33.
“Those who believe him discover that God is a fountain of
truth. For this one sent by God,…”
34.
For this one sent by God
35.
“…For this one sent by God, speaks God's words,…”
36.
He does what? He speaks God’s words not his own words for
God is with Him. When God sends a man, He backs Him up.
37.
“…for God's Spirit is upon him without measure or limit.” LB.
38.
“Whoever receives His
testimony has set his seal of approval to this: God is true. [That man has
definitely certified, acknowledged, declared once and for all, and is himself
assured that it is divine truth that God cannot lie].
39.
For since He Whom God has
sent speaks the words of God [proclaims God's own message], God does not give
Him His Spirit sparingly or by measure,…”
40.
God does not give Him His spirit sparingly. Half and half,
No! In Him dwelleth the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Which means the Elohim
dwelleth in Him.
41.
“For since He Whom God has sent speaks the words of God [proclaims
God's own message], God does not give Him His Spirit sparingly or by
measure,but boundless is the gift God makes of His Spirit.” AMP. Amen.

CHRIST HAS APPEARED TO
TAKE
THE ELECT TO THE PROMISED LAND -
Hebrews chapter 9
verse 28. LB. I want to show you the people I am talking to so that you will
not be offended. I am not generalizing; I know you have your different motives
why you are here.
2.
Some received wedding invitation. Some received God’s
invitation. Some decided on their own that they must be here by and by. I mean,
they invited themselves. These three categories of people are here.
3.
But I want to pinpoint the particular category My Message
is directed to, so, if you fall within the ambits of this category, happy are
you.
4.
If you are outside this category, please praise God and
remain where you are. Feel free.
5.
Remember that I am the visible Devil. Yes, the visible
Devil. Thus, stop coining any other thing you will call Me. This is the
highest. The moment I am not from God, I am from the Devil.
6.
But remember, whoever that God sends speaks the Word of
God, for the Spirit of God is in Him without measure. And those who listen to
Him, accept His Message, verify the Message bear witness that He is the
fountain of truth.
7.
Hebrews 9 verse 29, “So also Christ died only once as an
offering for many people.”
8.
For the sins of what? Many people! Not the whole world.
9.
“And he will come again but not to deal again with our
sins…”
10.
He will come again, not to deal with sin. He will come
again not to deal with sin. That one has been taking care of, once and for all,
for that was his own ministry.
11.
You must know the ministry of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of
God that taketh away the sins of many not the world. Note it, many, not the
world.
12.
He came to his own, He is a savior only to His own. He
knows his own. He knows their dwelling places. He calls them by their names. He
gives them Eternal Life.
13.
They will never
perish, neither will anything pluck them out of His hand. If He had come to
take away the sins of the world, the devil will be saved. Lucifer will be
number one for he was with him even when the world was without form.
14.
“So also Christ died only once as an offering for many
people. And he will come again but not to deal again with our sins. This time
he will come…”
15.
This time, He will come.
16.
“This Time He will come bringing salvation…”
17.
Bringing what? Salvation!
18.
“…to all those”
19.
To who?
20.
“…To all those who are eagerly and patiently waiting for
him.”
21.
Put your hands together brethren.
22.
Many think He will come and they will fly away. How can
you fly away when you have not been purified? Is there anything that is defiled
that will be there? No!
23.
How can you fly
away when you do not have God’s nature which is your ticket to paradise? This is because, anybody who does not have the
nature of Christ, can never dwell with Him eternally.
24.
A man that marries a woman that does not have his nature
must keep on having problems with that woman. Is that not true? For the Bride
and the Bridegroom to be one, they must have the same heartbeat.
25.
Then, it behoveth the Bridegroom to come and prepare the
Bride by imparting His nature into the Bride. After which, He will present her
to Himself as a chaste virgin. Not having spot, wrinkle or blemish.
26.
Brother Onyema has adorned Sister Afoma, not for anybody,
but for himself to suit his taste. Brother Onyema is the bridegroom, the
central point of all that is happening today. The two have now become one.
27.
Sister Afoma now will be understudying Brother Onyema so
as to assume Brother Onyema’s nature, that the family might be in peace.
28.
But Brother Onyema can never adopt Sister Afoma’s nature.
It must go the way of Onyema, and not the way of Afoma, otherwise, it is not a
family.
29.
I am trying to introduce Myself so that when I enter into
the Word proper, you can give Me a name.
30.
I know today some will go home saying, “Never in this life
have I come across a man speaking like this.” Some will say, “My heart was burning
within me even when I heard his words. Many things pricked my conscience.”
31.
Today is My day because I am involved. The family is mine.
Thus, it is My sole responsibility to lay a formidable foundation because the
foundation of every building determine how long that building will last.
32.
If the foundation is weak, the building will develop
cracks. Before you know it, it will crumble. Passerby will be saying, “Once
upon a time, there was a big structure here.”
33.
But I am laying an eternal foundation because whatever God
does, is eternal. Amen.
34.
KJV. Even in that your King James, it is equally there.
35.
Hebrews 9:28“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins
of many;…”
36.
Have you heard it? Christ was offered once to bear the
sins of many, not the world. Oftentimes, people speak where the Bible does not
speak.
37.
You quote your manmade pastors and everywhere: “Jesus for the world.” Is that
scriptural? Do not worry, I will show you something.
38.
“So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and
unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time…”
39.
But unto them, unto those that look for Him shall He
appear the second time. Will He appear?
40.
“And unto them that look for him shall he appear the
second time without sin unto salvation.” KJV.
41.
Have you heard it? No longer to deal with sin. Christ has
appeared, to take us to the promise land.
42.
John chapter 8
verse 31 through 32. I am still introducing Myself and the category of people I
have come to talk to. But the rest, we shall dine together. \
43.
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him,…”
44.
Jesus said to those Jews that believed on him, not those
that never believe. You see the category of people I am meeting?
45.
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, if
ye continue in my word,…”
46.
If you continue in my Word as My believers. Not believing
today and dumping it tomorrow. The secret of success into paradise lies in
constancy and continuity.
47.
For whosoever that will persevere unto the end, the same
shall be saved. The Apostles said, “We shall only be saved if we hold unto the
profession of our faith without wavering unto the end.”
48.
The Lord Jesus said, “Whoever that endures till the end,
the same shall be saved.” Not believing and dumping.
49.
CONSTANCY and CONTINUITY, STEADFASTNESS. That is what that
will take you there. To those that have believed, not those that never
believed. He said, “If you now continue in my words.”
50.
“…if ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples
indeed;…”
51.
But if you do not continue, what are you? You see why the
Hebrews said, “We are not numbered among those that draw back unto perdition.
But we are among those who move forward to the saving of our souls. For if we
draw back, the Spirit of Christ will no longer be pleased with us.”
52.
If you are striving for mastery, you are not crowned. You
can never win the trophy until you have played the final game. Until you have
reached the end, you can never be crowned.
53.
Nobody has ever been crowned midway. You cannot obtain
your degree certificate without writing your degree exam.
54.
You want eternal life? All in your hands. I am here not
for everybody but for many.
55.
“…if ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples
indeed; And ye shall know the truth,…”
56.
You will know what? The truth! You will know what? The
truth! For truth proceeds only from God. Christ is the truth, the way and the
life. No man cometh to the father except by him. No falsehood in him.
57.
If you are an Apostle, you are an Apostle of truth. If you
are a Bishop, you are a Bishop of truth. If you are a Teacher, you are a
Teacher of truth. Evangelist of truth. I mean, whatever you maybe, it must be
truth. Or else, you are operating outside Christ.
58.
For Christ is the truth, the way and the life. Whoever
that is in the truth is in Christ. You are walking in the light. Darkness
cannot comprehend your heart again. For truth illuminates your home.
59.
You see why Nsukka and Opi are still dying? For they are
still walking in the dark.
60.
Let Me tell you, all of you here should pray because if
you sin willfully after knowing who God is, acknowledged the truth, propagated
the truth and you begin to draw back to sin willfully, that sin is not be
covered with the blood of Jesus. This is an unpardonable sin. Is it in the
scripture? Thank you!
61.
What is awaiting you? You will be waiting for the fearful
indignation and wrath of God which will be revealed upon the children of
disobedience. Which you are one of them.
62.
“And
ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” KJV. AMEN.

GOD IS A MAN
John chapter 12 verse
49. I am still introducing Myself. Introduction continues. If Genesis is like
this, what do you think will be contained in Revelation? If Genesis is like
this, what will Revelation look like? Because I am about to go to revelation.
2.
Because where I am going now is revelation, it is faith for
faith is revelation. For no man knoweth who God is, nobody knoweth who the Father
is, neither do you know who the Son is except those it shall be revealed to by
My Father. And this is where faith will be applied.
3.
“For
I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a
commandment,…” KJV.
4.
“For these are not my own idea…”
5.
These, whatever you are going to hear, they are not
expression of My own human ideas or opinions.
6.
“For these are not my own idea but I have
told you what the father said to tell you…” LB.
7.
I have. I will tell you what He that
is in Me have commanded Me to tell you.
8.
St. John chapter 7 verse 38. “Then said Jesus unto them,…”
9.
Jesus said unto the crowd as you are here now, so they
were when he was here in human form before he left the scene, he told you one
that will be coming after him.
10.
For he told his disciples, “I have too many things I would
have told you but you cannot bear them now. Nevertheless, when He, the Spirit
of Truth shall come, he will guide you into the knowledge of all truth.
11.
“He will remind you of things I have already taught you,
He will declare to you things that are yet to come. For I am going to my Father,
He will never speak of Himself. But whatsoever He heareth from me, that He will
declare unto you.
12.
I want to introduce Myself before you can hear Me. St.
Paul was talking to Galatians Church, he said, “You know me very well, you know
the source of my message that it came to me from no less a personality than the
Lord Jesus Christ who chose me from my mother’s womb for this purpose of
preaching the gospel of life.”
13.
When you know the person, you know the source of the
message, to pay attention becomes easy. Then, you verify, check for yourself
whether you are hearing the word of a mere man.
14.
“He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out
of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”KJV
15.
Verse 28. “Then cried Jesus in the temple as he
taught,…”
16.
Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught them.
17.
“…saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am:…”
18.
All of you know Me.
19.
“…And ye know whence I am…”
20.
and you know where I came from.
21.
“…and I am not come of myself,…”’
22.
I never sent
Myself.
23.
“…but he that sent me is true,…”
24.
He that sent Me is what? True!
25.
“…whom ye know not.”
26.
Whom you know not.
27.
“So Jesus in a sermon in the Temple called out, Yes, you
know me and where I was born…”
28.
You know Me and where I was born and bred. You know me,
you know where I was born and you know how I was brought up.
29.
Some of you are from the same community like Myself. This
statement I just made now, is it English? After all said and done, we will
explain. After sharing in the square, it is taken back to the family house.
30.
When Joseph was done with speaking the Egyptian language,
his brothers thought he was an Egyptian. It got to a point he called Benjamin,
“Come here.”
31.
He called Rueben. He called Gad, “Stop crying. I am Joseph
your brother. The one you sold into slavery and went home to tell out father
that a lion devoured him. Stop crying. I am the one.”
32.
They sold him as a slave. They met him as a king. The
provider for the whole world. They met him as a saviour. Saviour of the whole
world in the time of famine. Grievous famine. Sold him as a slave. Met him as a
saviour. Not only saviour to them but saviour of many who came to him. He never
cast any away.
33.
“So Jesus in a sermon in the Temple called out, Yes, you
know me from where I was born and raised. But I am the representative of one
you don't know,…”
34.
I am the what?
35.
“…the representative of one you don’t know.”
36.
I am a representative of one you do not know.
37.
“…and he is truth.”
38.
And he is what? Truth. He is what? Truth!
39.
Whom you will know and then be set free. I am a representative.
You know what it takes for the president to send somebody to Nsukka as his own
personal representative. If you receive him, you have received the president.
You reject him, you have rejected the president.
40.
The Lord Jesus said, “Whosoever that receives whosoever
the Father sends, receives the Father. You reject him, you have rejected the Father.”
41.
When St. Paul was the one bearing God’s Name, was sent to
the Gentiles and they could not believe in him, he retorted, “Seeing that you
have disbelieved me, you have counted yourself unworthy of everlasting life.”
42.
There is no other way God can reach and save you without
using a human being as an instrument. A human being, a Vessel He prepare for
Himself. For He does not dwell in a house made with hands, but the house has He
prepared for Himself.
43.
And whenever the Spirit of God abides in the vessel made
by God, the tabernacle of God is then among men. The Vessel becomes the
tabernacle of God. In other words, God is now tabernacling in the midst of
human beings.
44.
Roman Catholics here, you see what you do not believe? In the Eucharist, Heaven and earth relate
with each other. God and man will become what? One! In the spirit and
everywhere. He will become progress himself and also wisdom. Heaven and earth
met.
45.
This is what they are teaching. When Catholic was Catholic,
“I believe in one God, the creator of
heavens and earth, things that are visible and invisible.” Amen.
6
MY PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW
ME
Remember, I said that
whenever the Spirit of God abides in the vessel made by God, the tabernacle of
God is then among men. The Vessel becomes the tabernacle of God. In other
words, God is now tabernacling in the midst of human beings.
2.
Now, let us know who that Person is. You know I am mad. I
am out of My senses. A very abnormal man. Yes! Do not take me as a normal man
today. I am now abnormal. I am out of my senses.
3.
Colossians 1 verse 16. “Christ Himself is the creator…”
4.
Christ himself is what? The Creator.
5.
“…Who made everything in heaven and earth. He made the
things we can see and the things we cannot. The spirit world with kings,
kingdoms,…”
6.
The spirit world with what? Kings and kingdoms.
7.
“… its rulers, and authorities. All were made by Christ
for his own use and glory.” LB.
8.
Put your hands together brethren! Then, Who is that only One and True God who created the
heavens and earth, thing that are visible and invisible? Where lieth three in
one?
9.
For the Bible said, “God is one, His Name one.” Where did
we manufacture three in one? God the father, God the son, God the Holy Spirit.
10.
A human being with three heads ceases to be a human being.
You see why the Lord Jesus said, “They err not knowing the scriptures nor the
power of God.” If they had known, they would have believed that I and My Father
are one. If you have seen Me, you have seen my father for my father dwelleth in
me.”
11.
In John chapter 14 from verse 1 said, “Believe in My
father, believe also in me.” I want to establish it.
12.
John 14 verse 1. “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe
in God, believe also in me.”
13.
Have you seen it? You believe in God, believe also in me.
14.
Verse 10. “Believest thou not that I am in the Father,
and the Father in me?...”
15.
HAVE YOU SEEN IT? DON’T YOU BELIEVE THAT IN ME IS THE
FATHER REVEALED? HAVE YOU NOT SEEN THE FATHER?
EVEN THE ORIGINAL BODY? EVEN IN THE GODHEAD? WHAT ELSE ARE YOU LOOKING
FOR? HAVE YOU NOT SEEN THE FULLNESS OF THE DEITY IN THE MIDST OF THE BRIDE?
WHAT ELSE ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
16.
[Pastor Thomas, when we get home, give him one copy of the
Bridal chronicle. He merits it. He has been with Me for a very long time. A
fine gentle man].
17.
St. John chapter 1 verse 10. Living Bible “But
although he made world,…”
18.
Who made the world? Christ!
19.
“But although he made world, the world didn't
recognize him when he came.”
20.
The world He made never recognized Him. That is why even
in the Old Testament, God told the prophet to go and tell them that the ox
knows it’s owner, animals knows their owner but my people do not know Me. Although
the made the world, but the world He made – human beings never recognized Him
when He came.
21.
Verse 11-12. “Even in his own land and among his own
people,…”
22.
Even in His own land among His own people.
23.
“The Jews, he was not accepted…”
24.
He was not accepted. You see! I gave you a Message raw titled, “Recognition, Acceptance
and then Worship.” His own people never recognized Him, they never accepted
Him, how can they worship Him? That was why they were worshipping amiss.
Worshipping something they knew not, an imaginary God.
25.
I know today is My day “Even in his own land and among
his own people the Jews, he was not accepted. Only a few will welcome…”
26.
What? Only a few will welcome. What? Only
a few.”
27.
Say after Me. What?
28.
Only
a few. What? Only a few.
29.
You see why His disciple asked him a question whether many
will be saved, He said, “No, the road is narrow, only a few will find it. But
strive that you may enter for many will try to enter but they will not. But
broad is the way that leads to everlasting destruction. Many are there that
follow that way.”
30.
Broad way! How many can pay the price? Some are here
because they think it is a new Message. Some are here because they want to
better their lot. But if you are here for Eternal Life, be ready to pay the
price! When they came to Jesus for Eternal Life, He gave them cost of
discipleship.
31.
For there is no man that wants to build a house who does
not sit down to calculate what it would take. Or else, he will stop midway.
32.
People will laugh at him. “He was following God before now; he is no longer following God.”He
never counted the cost. He jumped in.
33.
“He was a man of God
before. But now, he is a devil.” He
never counted the cost. He followed people. Do not follow Me. Do not follow
anybody. Look up to Christ.
34.
“Only a few will welcome and receive him. But to all who
receive him…”
35.
To those people that now received Him
36.
“…he gave the right to become children of God.”
37.
He gave what?
38.
The right to become the children of God.
39.
He gave what? He conferred them with the right to be sons
and daughters of God. Why? On the basis of Recognition, Acceptance and Worship.
I am introducing Myself.
40.
Verse 14. “And Christ became a human being…”
41.
Who? Christ.
42.
Became what? A human being.
43.
Can it be possible? Since all children of God are human
beings. Christ became what? A human being.
44.
“And Christ became human and lived here on
earth…”
45.
And lived where? Here on earth! Is it true? And He is the
same yesterday, today and forever. And He said, “I will never leave you comfortless.
I will be with you till the end of the world. A little while, the world will
see Me no more, but you will see Me. For because I live, ye shall live also.”
46.
“And Christ became human and lived here on earth among us
and was full of loving forgiveness and truth.”
47.
Full of loving
forgiveness and truth. If you are a Catholic here, I more.
48.
PATER noster, qui es
in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua,
sicut in caelo et in terra.…Amen.
49.
I recited “OUR Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy
name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven….” in Latin
language.
50.
For the disciple said, “Master, teach us how to pray.” So
please, I never spoke in tongue.
51.
What are we saying? And the Word became a human being,
live here among us, having favour with men and with God. For God was with him.
Now what are we going to call it? The Word that was made flesh and He dwells
among us. Put your hands together for God.
52.
You see why God does not belong to any denomination? He is
a free radical, The Self-existing One, He only identifies with truth. Wherever
He sees truth, He perches there. No matter who is holding that truth, God is
there.
53.
For no man can hold the truth if God is not with Him. Am I
making sense? He that is of the truth is of God and there is nothing to fear in
that person. Glory to be to God in the
highest. Amen.

GOD IS AMONG MEN
Hebrews chapter 2
verse 14. What am I doing? A little here, a little there. Corroborating and
collaborating. You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.
2.
Now, I say peace unto you. If an Hausa man will turn to
you and say, “As-salaam alaykum” which means, “peace be unto you.”
3.
You will say, “What? He
is a Boko Haram person!” Because you cannot understand his language. “Insha Allah”,
which means “by the grace of God”. You also say it!
4.
Is it because you do not understand his language? Is it
because people in Islam are practicing another thing?
5.
All that are carrying the Bible to Church, is there any of
them that is living the life of Christ? That is the cause of reproach. That is
the cause of the trouble.
6.
All that are following Mohammed, is there any of them that
is patterning after His teaching? No! Politicians! That is the problem.
7.
There is nothing evil about Truth. Evil remains with the
people who claim they are in truth yet they live a life of falsehood
8.
Hebrew 2 verse 14.
KJV “Forasmuch
then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood,…”
9.
As much as the children of God are partakers of flesh and
blood
10.
“…he also himself likewise took part of the same;…”
11.
He took part of the same.
12.
“…that through death he might destroy him that had the
power of death, that is, the devil.”
13.
Only as a human being can He destroy he that has the power
of death.
14.
Living Bible translation. “Since we God’s children are
human beings…”
15.
Since we God’s children are what? Human being, having
flesh and blood. Remember when Jesus resurrected from the dead, he entered into
the house of Rhoda where they were having their communion, they wanted to run
away.
16.
He said, “Peace be unto you.” Judas was not there. They
could not understand what was happening for they were afraid.
17.
He said, “Peter, touch me, handle Me. I have flesh and
blood. Spirit does not have flesh and blood.”
18.
Then, if you go by the Bible, that flesh and blood cannot
inherit the Kingdom of heaven. Did not Jesus have flesh and blood? So, Jesus
went to hell? They err not knowing the scripture nor the power of God.
19.
You see why when they could not understand, Jesus said,
“You are quick to hear but slow to understand.” He now expounded their
understanding that they might understand the real meaning of the Scriptures.
20.
“Since we God’s children are human beings --made of flesh
and blood--he became flesh and blood too…” He became what? Flesh and blood too.
He became a human being too.
21.
If I say that God is a human being and you say you do not
believe, what will you believe? You do not even believe that you are the
express picture of Him and you do not believe the Scriptures.
22.
Since you do not believe the Scriptures and you do not
believe yourself, what do you believe?
23.
If God is not a human being, you are not a human being.
Whatever that is begotten of a snake must be a snake. Whatever that is begotten
of a rat must be a rat. Whatever that is begotten of a God must be God.
Children of God!
24.
You see, your rejoicing is not in vain because you have
known who I am. And you are in Me who is Eternal Life. Do not be too curious
about knowing My Name.
25.
“Since we God’s children are human beings --made of flesh
and blood--he became flesh and blood too by being born in human form.
26.
For only as a human being could he die, and only by dying
could he break the power of the Devil, who had the power of death.” LB.
27.
I love this light. This is the light of truth. Yes! It is
glowing. Do not allow this light to go down.
28.
James chapter 1, in collusion. I want to introduce Myself.
This is the last scripture I will read in this Introduction. You can call it,
Son of Man’s preface intro to this wedding.
29.
James chapter 1 verse 22 through 25. Now, you have been
listening to Me all these while and I have been carrying you along.
30.
I am sure and certain that even if you do not understand
you are writing something down so that when you get home, you crosscheck to
know whether I have misinformed you. But I know I will never.
31.
Even if I will try to do it, the Spirit that turned the
tongue of Balaam will turn My own. How can God permit Me to deceive His
children? Never, never.
32.
Balaam was all out to place a curse on the children of God
because of money. When he opened his mouth, the Lord turned his tongue. Instead
of cursing, he started blessing.
33.
Balak ran mad with him. He said, “How can I curse a people
God has already blessed? Impossible!
34.
“Dear Brothers, don’t ever forget that it is best to
listen much..”
35.
What? “Dear Brothers, don’t ever forget that it is
best to listen much and speak little.”
36.
It is best to pay attention very much and open our mouth a
little. I think wisdom is there. Too much hearing and less talking.
37.
“Dear Brothers,..”
38.
Dear Brothers and Sisters! Are Sisters excluded from God’s
program?
39.
“Dear Brothers [and Sisters], don’t ever forget that it is
best to listen much and speak little and not become angry.”
40.
And what?
41.
Not become angry.
42.
Do not allow what I am saying to provoke you to wrath, for
man’s anger can never work out God’s righteousness. Even if it is not sinking
well with you, please accept Me anyhow.
43.
If you do not accept Me as God-sent, accept Me as the
visible Temple, for God never destroyed Lucifer, otherwise, he will not be
acting till today.
44.
Nobody has ever been sent to destroy Lucifer. Even Jesus
never destroyed Lucifer. When Lucifer saw Jesus, he said, “Jesus Christ, Son of
the Most High God. Have you come here to destroy us before our time?”
45.
He [Jesus] said, “Nay!” He [Lucifer] said, “Please do not do that. Command us to
enter into these pigs.” The time for the destruction of the devil is not yet
come.
46.
I am not here to destroy the Devil. Neither am I here to
destroy the works of the Devil.
47.
Let Me ask you this question. You are all intelligent. You
go to Churches where they bind the Devil every day. Some say they have put
Devil in the bottomless pit.
48.
This Devil that is found and put into the bottomless pit
by your pastors and reverends, who brought him out? Unless English has lost its
meaning. Since they have bound him, who loosed him?
49.
This is because God is the only Being who will bind,
nobody can loose. When He opens the door, nobody can close it. When He closes,
nobody can open. When He exalts a man, nobody can beat him.
50.
Then, who is this person that is loosening the Devil God
bound. May be they do not know who the Devil is. They use their mouths to put
fish into the soup, attempting to bind their father, because the Devil is the
father of all liars.
51.
And I want to affirm that all that were here before Me
were liars. They were thieves. That is why there is conspiracy against the Son
of Man. Conspiracy against the truth, because they want to wield power, as if
power is all that is needed to be here.
52.
If power offers protection, why do Governors go with fleet
of escorts? If power offers security, why do they go with security men?
53.
If money gives happiness, don’t you know that rich people
will be dancing on the streets? But who are in the hiding? The rich. If all it
takes to get married is to be a celebrity, well, I do not think Afoma would
have married.
54.
Anybody who is not a celebrity would miss it. I am saying
that celebrities would have captured marriage, but unfortunately, celebrities
have become abandoned property. Expired materials. The whole single mothers we
have today are found among the celebrity.
55.
I am here for
truth. Nothing but the truth. Do more hearing than talking and do not allow My
Word to provoke you to anger, because the way you receive the Word of God will
determine the way it will work in you. The Acts of the Apostles said that those
that gladly received the Word were added to the Church for salvation.
56.
And when the Word went forth in Antioch, all that were
ordained to salvation believed. The rest demonstrated and protested and went
away to their own peril.
57.
Thus, do not protest. Hold your temper under control,
because when you provoke Me as I discern it, I will give you a gift.
58.
I will give you a gift. And you know what My gift is
always like. A very nice gift. You brandish it wherever you go. In short,
nobody will tell you. Anybody that sees you will know that you met the Son of
Man, because it is a gift that is very very cherishable.
59.
“Dear Brothers, don’t ever forget that it is best to
listen much, speak little and not become angry.
60.
For anger does not make us good as God demands that we
must be. So get rid of all that is wrong in your life….”
61.
Get rid of all that is wrong in your life.
62.
“…both inside and outside…”
63.
Both inside and outside.
64.
“…and humbly be glad for the wonderful message we have
received.”
65.
Do what? Be humbly glad for the wonderful Message I am
about to open.
66.
Madam, this is against My principle. If you were in you
conference halls or lecture halls, do you answer calls? Why don’t you reverence
God? I respect your motherhood, but respect your Creator.
67.
Please, if you phone is not doing recording, please switch
it off. I commanded you to do recording. You can as well take My photograph, if
I permit you, but tell Me otherwise you may spoil your handset.
68.
“So get rid of all that is wrong in your life….”
69.
So get rid of all that is wrong in your life.
70.
“…both inside and outside..”
71.
Rampant manifestation of radicalism. Rampant outgrowth of
radicalism that is prevalent among the human race. Get rid of them. You know I
the greatest radical. Do you believe that? Of course, you know more than that.
You are radicals also.
72.
Every Messenger from God has always been a radical. All of
them came with revolutionary Messages. And they were grossly misunderstood.
Only few understood them.

“So get rid of all that is wrong in your life both inside
and outside and humbly be glad for the wonderful message we have received, for
it is able to save our souls as it takes hold of our hearts. And remember, it
is a message to obey.”
75.
It is a Message to obey and not merely listen to.
76.
“And remember, it is a message to obey, not just to listen
to, if you humble yourself.”
77.
Humble yourself.
78.
“For if a person just listens and does not obey, it is
like a man looking at his face in a mirror. As soon as he walks away, he can’t
see himself anymore or remember what he looks like.
79.
But if anyone keeps looking steadily into God’s law for
free men, he will not only remember it, but he will do what it says. And God
will greatly bless him in everything he does.”

To God be the Glory. Amen.
