the hour cometh and now is when the true worshippers shall worship God in

Where
there is neither Greek now Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian,

GOLDEN
TEXT: 1ST JOHN 2:27
"But
the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you and ye need not that
any man teach you, but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is
truth and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in
him."
PRACTICE
GOD'S INJUNCTIONS:
Brethren,
the texts form the bedrock of our discourse. Each of the three texts relates to
the other which means they have a uniform message for mankind. Anybody who
walks according to the dictates of the flesh must surely die. If we purge
ourselves of the lust of the flesh and accept the teachings of the Holy Spirit,
then we shall have eternal life. Bear in mind that nothing can stop the words
of God from manifesting. As such there is no reason to be disturbed about the
trends of the events of the world today because they were are predicted and
recorded in the Holy Book. The same injunctions given to you today were also
given to Adam and Eve. God told them that he would teach them everything, and
as such they should not take advice from anybody. He forewarned them that the
moment they took advice from man or any angel, they would die. But they
disobeyed God by taking instructions from Satan and they were punished
accordingly.
There
is a repetition of that warning in this generation but man is not interested in
complying with it. If you scoff at God's injunctions, I wonder where your
salvation lies. A careful child would extinct the things which kill his father
but a careless child would be killed by what killed his father. The kingdom is
devoid of carnality. This is so because the spirit has never been on good terms
with the flesh. It is our first parents, Adam and Eve who decoy us by giving us
wrong indoctrination. They threw away the sound indoctrination of the Holy
Spirit and this is the origin of the problems of man.
THE
NEW AGE: This is the time to redress the ugly situation created by as the
consequence of the disobedience of Adam and Eve. This is the time when man
should turn a new leaf and break away from sins. IF YOU SCOFF AT GOD'S
INJUNCTIONS, YOU WOULD BE HEADING FOR DESTRUCTION, AND IF YOU PRACTICE HIS
INJUNCTIONS, THEN YOU ARE SURE OF YOUR LIFE IN ABUNDANCE.
Going
to school is one thing, being taught is another, but the greatest thing is for
you to assimilate what you are taught and practice same. In the same vein,
going to church does not save you, receiving the gospel does not give you
salvation, BUT PRACTICING THE GOSPEL IS WHAT GIVES YOU LIFE. It
was predestined that this generation would worship God in spirit and in truth.
Anybody who infracts this laid down rule must be destroyed. Christ has enjoined
man not to call anybody teacher, because He is the only teacher. But this
injunction is flouted at will by man. He repeatedly warns us not to call anyone
king, master, because He alone is the King and Master. He indeed is all in all.
If you can heed His injunction, you are sure of eternal life.
GOD IS
LOVE:
This is
the generation which the Father has destined to be ruled by the Holy Spirit.
This is what was written about this era before the foundation of the world was
laid. God is love and His love extends to us all. He teaches us love and His
teachings are true. God is a spirit and the spirit is truth and His teachings
are truth, as such we have to abide by the truth which is the teaching of the
spirit. We have to follow the pattern of life which is nothing short of the
truth backed by bondless love. You should stop succumbing to the frivolities of
the flesh and you should refrain from pleasing man. Imbibe the teachings of the
Holy Spirit and its inherent truth. The flesh is blind, dumb, lame, foolish,
and in fact daft. There is nothing you can do with a vain thing which is void.
Our
Lord Jesus Christ promises us that in his Father's house there are many a
mansions there, and that He goes to prepare a place for us all so that when He
comes back He would take us to live where He lives. This is the message which
is informed by love and great concern. The flesh cannot afford you a place of
rest. And of course the people who are the true worshippers of God are the ones
who worship him in spirit and in truth, as was written about this time.
In the
whole world how many people are worshipping God in spirit and in truth? If Adam
and Eve had diligently adhered to God's injunctions without turning to the
advice of man, they would not have fallen short of the kingdom of God.
GOD
THE FATHER HAS COME DOWN TO RULE THE WORLD. HIS TOOLS OF RULERSHIP INCLUDE
PEACE, MERCY, LOVE, TRUTH, HUMILITY, JOY, RIGHTEOUSNESS, POWER, AND ALL
GOODNESS. God cares for you when people plan evil against you, He continues
to be with you and he shields you from harmful things. Surprisingly, the same
God who protects you is the same one you disobey.
You
despise His words at will and you rather prefer to harken to what man advises
you. This is the period of time written about that:
...they
shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know
the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. (Hebrews
8:11).
He has
written His laws in your heart. He is the truth, the king of kings and Lord of
Lords. He is everything and he dwells in everything. The problem of the entire
world emanates from the fact that man does not believe in God and man does not
obey God. Man scoffs at God's teachings. Man prefers to disobey God and suffer
in life. If you disobey the Holy Spirit you are bound to suffer from your
action.
WHAT
GOD WANTS TO DO:
Be
informed that the flesh which is the architect of disobedience was crucified on
the cross and that marked the end of its life span. Now is the time which was
written about that the true worshippers shall worship God in spirit and in
truth. Hitherto mankind was decoyed and man was groping in the darkness but in
this present dispensation, the Holy Spirit obliterates all powers of darkness
in the world. This is the fulfillment of the promise He made to mankind:
Nevertheless,
I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not
away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him
unto you.
(John
16:7).
WITH
THAT PROMISE FULFILLED THERE IS NO POINT IN LOOKING FOR GOD ON THE MOUNTAIN, IN
THE VALLEY, OCEAN, AND INSIDE THE FOREST. HE HAS COME TO RESIDE IN YOU AND YOU
HAVE TO HEED TO HIS INJUNCTION BY REFRAINING FROM SIN.
God
wants you to worship Him in spirit and in truth and act according to the
dictates of the Holy Spirit. You should not doubt Him or question His actions.
If you disobey the Holy Spirit, you are bound to perish because you cannot
claim ignorance of his injunctions. The Father's teachings are from God
and as such you should practice them. If you can practice the Father's
teachings, then you will not be in conflict with the Holy Spirit. WHAT GOD
VALUES MOST ARE HIS WORDS BECAUSE HIS WORDS ARE TRUTH, POWER, WEALTH, HEALTH,
LOVE, PEACE, AND LIFE. It is a great offense to disobey His words because
rejecting his words means rejecting Him.
DO
NOT HEED THE ADVICE OF ANYBODY, NO MATTER HOW INFLUENTIAL THEY MAY BE, IF IT IS
A NEGATION OF GOD'S TEACHINGS. ABIDE STEADFASTLY BY THE PROMPTING OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT.
WHAT
IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SPIRIT AND THE FLESH?: The things we
call vision, prophesy, and dreams are activities carried out in the spirit. Of
course there can be some deviations which depend on your state of mind. You
have to ask further the spirit to confirm the vision, whether it really comes
from the Holy Spirit.
After
confirming the message, then you have to carry it out as it is directed.
Failure to do this is tantamount to disobedience. He is not a God who will lead
his chosen one to shame. He is truth, hence the popular saying that there is no
disappointment in Jesus. Recall the incident of Paul and Ananias. God sent Paul
to Ananias and instructed Ananias, intimating him of the visit of Paul. Their
meeting resulted in Paul being healed of his blindness. If you were the one,
you would have doubted God. Except you change from your doubtful ways, you can
never have life. DOUBTING GOD MEANS REJECTING HIM AND REJECTING GOD
MEANS DEATH TO MAN.
God is
a spirit and He is always with you. He cares about you and He is ever willing
to accept you, but you have to flee the flesh and its carnal lust without which
you cannot have a share in the kingdom of God. ACCEPTING GOD MEANS
WORSHIPPING HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH. WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO, MAKE SURE IT
IS DONE ACCORDING TO THE DICTATE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT OTHERWISE YOU MAY BE
TEMPTED TO SIN. THE SPIRIT CANNOT DIRECT YOU TO DO WRONG THINGS, HE IS FAIR,
AND JUST IN HIS JUDGEMENTS BECAUSE HIS WORDS ARE TRUE.
LISTEN
TO THE HOLY SPIRIT:
You may
be invited for a feast where food is served you, but at that moment the Holy
Spirit in you instructs you not to eat the food despite your apparent need for
food. If you disobey the "voice" in you which advises you against
eating of the food, then you have erred. The fact that you profess to have
faith in God, the moment you disobey and eat the food, the resultant effect may
be stomach ache. You may doubt God as a result of this. One thing is clear that
your stomach pain is NOT due to the fact that the food you ate was poisoned but
because you have disobeyed by refusing to heed to the instructions of the Holy
Spirit.
GOD
DOES NOT DESIRE THAT WE PERISH, HENCE, HE LIVES TO BE OUR FATHER, TEACHER,
COMFORTER, AND PROVIDER. HE IS THE ONE DIRECTING OUR COURSE IN LIFE HENCE IT IS
INEVITABLE TO HEED HIS ADVICE. Unfortunately, nobody has accepted
to take Him for anything. In this wise, one can say that we do not want
salvation, because we do not love ourselves. If we want salvation then we would
not have rejected Him and scoffed at His injunctions. There is no one on earth
who can claim to be ignorant of God's existence. In spite of this, no one
accepts God and no one believes in Him. We continue to do things the way we
like. God speaks to you in spirit and He would send someone to you physically
about a particular issue, yet you would not believe in Him. God at different
times appears to man to address man in this physical world, but man would not
heed to God's divine instructions. Those who heed God's instructions do not
have problems and their gain is everlasting life. If you want to give
satisfaction to the flesh you will definitely annoy God.
THERE
IS NO PORTION IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WHICH INDICATES THAT MAN OR ANGEL WOULD LEAD
MANKIND. ONLY THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL LEAD. MANKIND.This lends credence
to the fact that we should surrender ourselves to the leadership of the Holy
Spirit. In the world today, if the Holy Spirit wants a particular person for
his services, no matter what people say about such a person, he/she has to do
the will of God. If for one reason or the other, the person disobeys the Holy
Spirit to please the flesh, then such a person would be courting inexplicable
problems. IT IS NOT ADVISABLE TO OBEY MAN TO THE DETRIMENT OF HOLY
SPIRIT.
The
awareness created in the world today is so much that no one can claim ignorance
of what God expects of us. IF YOU ACT ACCORDING TO THE DICTATES OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT, IT MEANS YOU HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS TRUTH AND
EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM IS TRUE. If you obey the Holy Spirit then there
is no need for you to be afraid of anything. Man cannot do any good thing on
his own volition except he is directed by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is
the one doing everything for us. Man is an irrational being otherwise he would
not have scoffed at God's injunctions. God does not believe in violence,
gossip, blasphemy, therefore we have to refrain from all these sinful acts. If
Jonah had heeded God's instructions to go to Nineveth, he would not have had
any problems. He preferred to escape rather than obey God. It was in the course
of fleeing that Nemesis caught up with him. At the end of it all, he found
himself at Nineveth. THIS SHOWS THAT NO ONE CAN EVADE THE LONG ARM OF
GOD'S JUSTICE.
This is
not the time for man to live his life as he likes because this is the era of
the Holy Spirit. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS EMERGED
AS THE RULER OF THE WORLD AND YOU ARE EXPECTED TO WORSHIP HIM OR FACE ETERNAL
DESTRUCTION. YOU SHOULD GIVE HIM DUE GLORY FOR HE IS THE KING OF KINGS, AND
LORD OF LORDS, AND YOU SHOULD PRAISE AND ADORE HIS HOLY NAME.
Let our
first lesson be repeated once more.
FIRST
BIBLE LESSON: JOHN 4:23
But
the hour cometh and now is when the true worshipper shall worship the Father in
spirit and in truth: for the father seeketh such to worship him.
WE ARE
GOD'S TOOLS:
You
must of necessity worship God in spirit and in truth. He has assumed rulership
over man, fishes, animals, plants, birds, insects, sand, water, and all that
was created. FROM NOW TILL ETERNITY WE HAVE ENTERED THE ERA OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT. Among other things, the Holy Spirit does, He preaches, sings,
dances, loves, and sees to all our needs. HE DOES EVERYTHING BY HIMSELF AND HE
IS ALL IN ALL. So it is wrong to say this person did this or that. EVERYTHING
IS DONE BY GOD. WE ARE ONLY USED AS VESSELS BY GOD.
YOU
HAVE NO RIGHT TO TREAT ANYBODY WITH DISDAIN BECAUSE SUCH TREATMENT IS A
DEVIATION FROM GOD'S TEACHINGS. GOD IS GOD OF EQUALITY.
GOD
IS SPIRIT AND WHERE THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS, THERE IS FREEDOM. WE ARE ONE PEOPLE,
FOR OUR GOD IS ONE. AS SUCH, DISCRIMINATION, IN-FIGHTING, QUARRELING, HATRED,
AMONG OTHERS ARE NO MORE PART OF US SINCE LOVE IS THE UNIFYING FORCE. AND THERE
IS UNIVERSAL LOVE FOR ALL CREATURES. THERE IS LIBERTY FOR ALL CREATURES AS WELL
AS FOR ALL MANKIND.
Peter,
in a trance, saw a host of animals descending and he was instructed to kill and
eat. Peter refused, complaining that he did not eat such unclean animals. God
advised him that he should not see anything as imperfect. The word
"animals" is not limited to animals alone, but it cuts across all
creatures, including mankind. THE LESSON YOU SHOULD LEARN FROM THIS
EPISODE OF PETER'S VISION IS THAT EVERYTHING CREATED BY GOD IS PURE. We
are just like an instrument unto God, and except God uses us we cannot produce
any action. We have to accept and believe in God. THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD
AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE ONE, NO MATTER THE NUMBER. We are the host and
He is our God. In the light of this, we have to be cautious of all things we
do. Let all your actions be such that can qualify you for this kingdom. God has
come to gather His sheep unto Himself to fulfill what was written that at the
end of time all the sheep of God would be one under one shepherd.
Satan
has his crusade, countries, villages, towns, organization, governments, and as
such they should be differentiated from that of God. Satan has his own school
and Christ has His own which is christened:" CHRIST UNIVERSAL SPIRITUAL
SCHOOL OF PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY." The question is, there is
Satan's School and there is Christ's School, which of them have you enrolled
in? Satan has men, countries, and missionaries with various names. The word
"Natural," is used to designate the missionary of Christ because it
was in existence before the foundation of the world was laid and it was formed
by God Himself. Old things in this era of the Holy Spirit have passed away and
all things have been made anew and Christ is now in control. Read the Second
Bible Lesson once more.
SECOND
BIBLE LESSON: COLOSSIANS 3:11
Where
there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian,
Scythian, bond nor free, but Christ is all and in all.
WHAT
NAME CAN DO:
People
for selfish reasons, form themselves into cliques and designate themselves
rulers. You must be careful about names. The influence of names on a man cannot
be over-emphasized. When you arrive at a place where you have two people and
one is a Christian and the other is pagan, you would not want to identify
yourself with the pagan, even if you are not true Christian. If you go to
another place where there are two groups, Christians and Moslems, the
atmosphere there will speak for itself. If you meet at another place where one
group is male and the other female, the issue and agenda in that atmosphere
will also be different.
In
summary, all these things portray nothing other than a rift caused by
discrimination and disunity. This is a total departure from the teachings of
Christ. CHRIST'S TEACHING IS UNIVERSAL LOVE. THERE IS NO MAN OR WOMAN,
OLD OR YOUNG, BLACK OR WHITE, TALL OR SHOT, CHRISTIAN OR PAGAN, JEW OR GREEK,
BOND OR FREE, MOSLEM OR WIDOW AT THIS DISPENSATION. EVERYTHING IS ONE. GOD IS
THE GOD OF LOVE, PEACE, POWER, MERCY, ORDERLINESS, TRUTH AND FULFILLMENT.
EVERYTHING THAT COMES FROM HIM IS TRUE BECAUSE HE IS TRUTH. WE ARE IN CHRIST
AND CHRIST IS IN THE FATHER WHICH MEANS THAT WE ARE ALL ONE WITH HIM AND THE
FATHER.
YOU
THEREFORE HAVE NO REASON TO LISTEN OR HEED THE INSTRUCTIONS OF ANY OTHER PERSON
OTHER THAN GOD. Listen to the promise which Christ gave to Peter as a
reply from the question on what would be the gain of those of them who had
abandoned their beloved ones to follow Him, Christ said:
...Verily
I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration, when the
Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon the
twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. (Matthew 19:27-28).
Therefore
we have no cause to worry, in so far as we know Him to be with us and in us.
Everything good we have is ours. He teaches us to resemble Him in all
ramifications of the word. He lives an exemplary life, as such, we must imitate
Him. This accounts for the statement: Do not bother yourself for anything
because He is responsible for everything.
GOD
HAS GIVEN CHRIST THE SOLE AUTHORITY TO RULE OVER ALL THINGS. THE SAME POWER HAS
BEEN EXTENDED TO US THROUGH LOVE. CHRIST'S GLORY IS UNLIMITED AND HE LIVES
FOREVER. Whatever belongs to Him belongs to us because we are all
co-heirs in this kingdom. Then what else do we need? It is wrong to say that
you are from America, Africa, Israel, Greece, or that you a man or that you are
a woman, circumcised or uncircumcised, free or bond, young or old, wise or
foolish, rich or pauper. WE HAVE EQUAL SHARE IN THE KINGDOM SO FAR AS
YOU ACCEPT AND BELIEVE IN GOD. HE IS THE GOD OF EQUALITY AND THE DOER OF
EVERYTHING. He is the vine and we all are the branches so if we abide
by His words, then we will bear good fruits.
Our
problems emanate from the fact that we do not believe in God. NOT
BELIEVING IN GOD MEANS REJECTING HIM AND REJECTING HIM MEANS DEATH, SUFFERING,
AFFLICTIONS, AND WOES. GOD HAS BESTOWED US WITH THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND HE HAS
LIBERATED US FROM BONDAGE. WE HAVE NO NEED FOR ANY OTHER TEACHER OR TEACHINGS.
WE ARE DUTY BOUND TO ABIDE BY THE TRUE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST IF WE SHOULD LIVE
AND SHARE WITH HIM IN HIS GLORY. Let the Golden Text be read.
GOLDEN
TEXT: 1ST JOHN 2:27
"But
the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you and ye need not that
any man teach you; but the same anointing teacheth you all things, and it is
truth and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in
him."
CHRIST'S
TEACHINGS:
You can
no more claim ignorance of the source of your problems. You have gone astray by
receiving the teachings that are not meant for the chosen people of God. Even
here in the kingdom, (BCS), nobody is willing to receive and practice the
teachings of the HOLY SPIRIT. I wonder if there is anybody who can truly say he
has copied the lifestyle of the HOLY FATHER? You please yourselves by pleasing
the flesh and as such you are bound to suffer. ALL THOSE WHO ABIDE BY
THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST ARE THOSE WHO HAVE CHRIST AND GOD THE FATHER. AND
WHOSOEVER DOES NOT ABIDE BY THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST HAS NEITHER CHRIST NOR THE
FATHER.
The
people of the entire world have realized their nakedness, hence they now seek
for Christ's teachings. The universities now incorporate the teachings of
Christ into their curriculum. Christ warns us not to call any person TEACHER OR
MASTER. You do not have to question Christ's teachings. You have no liberty to
behave the way you like. THERE IS NO MAN ON EARTH WHO IS ABLE TO TEACH
AND LEAD MANKIND TO SALVATION APART FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THERE
IS NO NEED TO LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO TEACH YOU WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES EFFORTLESSLY.
HE TEACHES US LOVE, TRUTH, MERCY, PEACE, GOODNESS, HUMILITY, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS. There will
be no more war, sickness, famine, hardship, division, and economic regression
if the entire world would practice the teachings of Christ. MAN IS
NOTHING WITHOUT GOD. LET US THEREFORE SURRENDER OURSELVES COMPLETELY TO GOD. WE
SHOULD PRAISE AND ADORE HIM. WE SHOULD GLORIFY HIM FOR HE IS WORTHY OF ALL
PRAISES. WE SHOULD LOVE GOD WITH ALL OUR HEARTS, THOUGHTS AND DEEDS. WITH THIS
THERE WILL BE PHYSICAL MANIFESTATION OF LOVE ALL OVER THE WORLD AND THERE WILL
BE PEACE AND THE WORLD WILL BE A SAFE AND ENJOYABLE PLACE TO LIVE IN.
Going
to school is one thing, and being taught is another; but the most important
thing is putting the teachings you receive into practice. IN THE SAME
VEIN, HIS COMING ON EARTH IS ONE THING, TEACHING IS ANOTHER, BUT IF WE DO NOT
ABIDE BY HIS TEACHINGS AND PRACTICE SAME, WE ARE THE LOSERS. Read what
he says in the scripture below.
But the
anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that
anyone teach you: but the same anointing teacheth you all things, and is truth,
and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. (1ST.
JOHN 2:27).
He
teaches us love, truth, peace, mercy, humility, self-control, and all virtues
of righteousness and we must accept these teachings and scoff at all others if
we want salvation.
May the
Lord bless His Holy teachings. Amen.
THANK
YOU HOLY FATHER.
But
the hour cometh and now is when the true worshippers shall worship God in
spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him.

food. If you disobey the "voice" in you which advises you against
eating of the food, then you have erred. The fact that you profess to have
faith in God, the moment you disobey and eat the food, the resultant effect may
be stomach ache. You may doubt God as a result of this. One thing is clear that
your stomach pain is NOT due to the fact that the food you ate was poisoned but
because you have disobeyed by refusing to heed to the instructions of the Holy
Spirit.
GOD
DOES NOT DESIRE THAT WE PERISH, HENCE, HE LIVES TO BE OUR FATHER, TEACHER,
COMFORTER, AND PROVIDER. HE IS THE ONE DIRECTING OUR COURSE IN LIFE HENCE IT IS
INEVITABLE TO HEED HIS ADVICE. Unfortunately, nobody has accepted
to take Him for anything. In this wise, one can say that we do not want
salvation, because we do not love ourselves. If we want salvation then we would
not have rejected Him and scoffed at His injunctions. There is no one on earth
who can claim to be ignorant of God's existence. In spite of this, no one
accepts God and no one believes in Him. We continue to do things the way we
like. God speaks to you in spirit and He would send someone to you physically
about a particular issue, yet you would not believe in Him. God at different
times appears to man to address man in this physical world, but man would not
heed to God's divine instructions. Those who heed God's instructions do not
have problems and their gain is everlasting life. If you want to give
satisfaction to the flesh you will definitely annoy God.
THERE
IS NO PORTION IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WHICH INDICATES THAT MAN OR ANGEL WOULD LEAD
MANKIND. ONLY THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL LEAD. MANKIND.This lends
credence to the fact that we should surrender ourselves to the leadership of
the Holy Spirit. In the world today, if the Holy Spirit wants a particular
person for his services, no matter what people say about such a person, he/she
has to do the will of God. If for one reason or the other, the person disobeys
the Holy Spirit to please the flesh, then such a person would be courting
inexplicable problems. IT IS NOT ADVISABLE TO OBEY MAN TO THE DETRIMENT
OF HOLY SPIRIT.
The
awareness created in the world today is so much that no one can claim ignorance
of what God expects of us. IF YOU ACT ACCORDING TO THE DICTATES OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT, IT MEANS YOU HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS TRUTH AND
EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM IS TRUE. If you obey the Holy Spirit then there
is no need for you to be afraid of anything. Man cannot do any good thing on
his own volition except he is directed by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is
the one doing everything for us. Man is an irrational being otherwise he would
not have scoffed at God's injunctions. God does not believe in violence,
gossip, blasphemy, therefore we have to refrain from all these sinful acts. If
Jonah had heeded God's instructions to go to Nineveth, he would not have had
any problems. He preferred to escape rather than obey God. It was in the course
of fleeing that Nemesis caught up with him. At the end of it all, he found
himself at Nineveth. THIS SHOWS THAT NO ONE CAN EVADE THE LONG ARM OF
GOD'S JUSTICE.
This is
not the time for man to live his life as he likes because this is the era of
the Holy Spirit. WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS EMERGED
AS THE RULER OF THE WORLD AND YOU ARE EXPECTED TO WORSHIP HIM OR FACE ETERNAL
DESTRUCTION. YOU SHOULD GIVE HIM DUE GLORY FOR HE IS THE KING OF KINGS, AND
LORD OF LORDS, AND YOU SHOULD PRAISE AND ADORE HIS HOLY NAME.
Let our
first lesson be repeated once more.
FIRST
BIBLE LESSON: JOHN 4:23
But
the hour cometh and now is when the true worshipper shall worship the Father in
spirit and in truth: for the father seeketh such to worship him.
WE ARE
GOD'S TOOLS:
You
must of necessity worship God in spirit and in truth. He has assumed rulership
over man, fishes, animals, plants, birds, insects, sand, water, and all that
was created. FROM NOW TILL ETERNITY WE HAVE ENTERED THE ERA OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT. Among other things, the Holy Spirit does, He preaches, sings,
dances, loves, and sees to all our needs. HE DOES EVERYTHING BY HIMSELF AND HE
IS ALL IN ALL. So it is wrong to say this person did this or that. EVERYTHING
IS DONE BY GOD. WE ARE ONLY USED AS VESSELS BY GOD.
YOU
HAVE NO RIGHT TO TREAT ANYBODY WITH DISDAIN BECAUSE SUCH TREATMENT IS A
DEVIATION FROM GOD'S TEACHINGS. GOD IS GOD OF EQUALITY.
GOD
IS SPIRIT AND WHERE THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS, THERE IS FREEDOM. WE ARE ONE PEOPLE,
FOR OUR GOD IS ONE. AS SUCH, DISCRIMINATION, IN-FIGHTING, QUARRELING, HATRED,
AMONG OTHERS ARE NO MORE PART OF US SINCE LOVE IS THE UNIFYING FORCE. AND THERE
IS UNIVERSAL LOVE FOR ALL CREATURES. THERE IS LIBERTY FOR ALL CREATURES AS WELL
AS FOR ALL MANKIND.
Peter,
in a trance, saw a host of animals descending and he was instructed to kill and
eat. Peter refused, complaining that he did not eat such unclean animals. God
advised him that he should not see anything as imperfect. The word
"animals" is not limited to animals alone, but it cuts across all
creatures, including mankind. THE LESSON YOU SHOULD LEARN FROM THIS
EPISODE OF PETER'S VISION IS THAT EVERYTHING CREATED BY GOD IS PURE. We
are just like an instrument unto God, and except God uses us we cannot produce
any action. We have to accept and believe in God. THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD
AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE ONE, NO MATTER THE NUMBER. We are the host and
He is our God. In the light of this, we have to be cautious of all things we
do. Let all your actions be such that can qualify you for this kingdom. God has
come to gather His sheep unto Himself to fulfill what was written that at the
end of time all the sheep of God would be one under one shepherd.
Satan
has his crusade, countries, villages, towns, organization, governments, and as
such they should be differentiated from that of God. Satan has his own school
and Christ has His own which is christened:" CHRIST UNIVERSAL SPIRITUAL
SCHOOL OF PRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY." The question is, there is
Satan's School and there is Christ's School, which of them have you enrolled
in? Satan has men, countries, and missionaries with various names. The word
"Natural," is used to designate the missionary of Christ because it
was in existence before the foundation of the world was laid and it was formed
by God Himself. Old things in this era of the Holy Spirit have passed away and
all things have been made anew and Christ is now in control. Read the Second
Bible Lesson once more.
SECOND
BIBLE LESSON: COLOSSIANS 3:11
Where
there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian,
Scythian, bond nor free, but Christ is all and in all.
WHAT
NAME CAN DO:
People
for selfish reasons, form themselves into cliques and designate themselves
rulers. You must be careful about names. The influence of names on a man cannot
be over-emphasized. When you arrive at a place where you have two people and
one is a Christian and the other is pagan, you would not want to identify
yourself with the pagan, even if you are not true Christian. If you go to
another place where there are two groups, Christians and Moslems, the
atmosphere there will speak for itself. If you meet at another place where one
group is male and the other female, the issue and agenda in that atmosphere
will also be different.
In
summary, all these things portray nothing other than a rift caused by
discrimination and disunity. This is a total departure from the teachings of
Christ. CHRIST'S TEACHING IS UNIVERSAL LOVE. THERE IS NO MAN OR WOMAN,
OLD OR YOUNG, BLACK OR WHITE, TALL OR SHOT, CHRISTIAN OR PAGAN, JEW OR GREEK,
BOND OR FREE, MOSLEM OR WIDOW AT THIS DISPENSATION. EVERYTHING IS ONE. GOD IS
THE GOD OF LOVE, PEACE, POWER, MERCY, ORDERLINESS, TRUTH AND FULFILLMENT.
EVERYTHING THAT COMES FROM HIM IS TRUE BECAUSE HE IS TRUTH. WE ARE IN CHRIST
AND CHRIST IS IN THE FATHER WHICH MEANS THAT WE ARE ALL ONE WITH HIM AND THE
FATHER.
YOU
THEREFORE HAVE NO REASON TO LISTEN OR HEED THE INSTRUCTIONS OF ANY OTHER PERSON
OTHER THAN GOD. Listen to the promise which Christ gave to Peter as a
reply from the question on what would be the gain of those of them who had
abandoned their beloved ones to follow Him, Christ said:
...Verily
I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration, when the
Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon the
twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. (Matthew 19:27-28).
Therefore
we have no cause to worry, in so far as we know Him to be with us and in us.
Everything good we have is ours. He teaches us to resemble Him in all
ramifications of the word. He lives an exemplary life, as such, we must imitate
Him. This accounts for the statement: Do not bother yourself for anything
because He is responsible for everything.
GOD
HAS GIVEN CHRIST THE SOLE AUTHORITY TO RULE OVER ALL THINGS. THE SAME POWER HAS
BEEN EXTENDED TO US THROUGH LOVE. CHRIST'S GLORY IS UNLIMITED AND HE LIVES
FOREVER. Whatever belongs to Him belongs to us because we are all
co-heirs in this kingdom. Then what else do we need? It is wrong to say that
you are from America, Africa, Israel, Greece, or that you a man or that you are
a woman, circumcised or uncircumcised, free or bond, young or old, wise or
foolish, rich or pauper. WE HAVE EQUAL SHARE IN THE KINGDOM SO FAR AS
YOU ACCEPT AND BELIEVE IN GOD. HE IS THE GOD OF EQUALITY AND THE DOER OF
EVERYTHING. He is the vine and we all are the branches so if we abide
by His words, then we will bear good fruits.
Our
problems emanate from the fact that we do not believe in God. NOT
BELIEVING IN GOD MEANS REJECTING HIM AND REJECTING HIM MEANS DEATH, SUFFERING,
AFFLICTIONS, AND WOES. GOD HAS BESTOWED US WITH THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND HE HAS
LIBERATED US FROM BONDAGE. WE HAVE NO NEED FOR ANY OTHER TEACHER OR TEACHINGS.
WE ARE DUTY BOUND TO ABIDE BY THE TRUE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST IF WE SHOULD LIVE
AND SHARE WITH HIM IN HIS GLORY. Let the Golden Text be read.
GOLDEN
TEXT: 1ST JOHN 2:27
"But
the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you and ye need not that
any man teach you; but the same anointing teacheth you all things, and it is
truth and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in
him."
CHRIST'S
TEACHINGS:
You can
no more claim ignorance of the source of your problems. You have gone astray by
receiving the teachings that are not meant for the chosen people of God. Even
here in the kingdom, (BCS), nobody is willing to receive and practice the
teachings of the HOLY SPIRIT. I wonder if there is anybody who can truly say he
has copied the lifestyle of the HOLY FATHER? You please yourselves by pleasing
the flesh and as such you are bound to suffer. ALL THOSE WHO ABIDE BY
THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST ARE THOSE WHO HAVE CHRIST AND GOD THE FATHER. AND
WHOSOEVER DOES NOT ABIDE BY THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST HAS NEITHER CHRIST NOR THE
FATHER.
The
people of the entire world have realized their nakedness, hence they now seek
for Christ's teachings. The universities now incorporate the teachings of
Christ into their curriculum. Christ warns us not to call any person TEACHER OR
MASTER. You do not have to question Christ's teachings. You have no liberty to
behave the way you like. THERE IS NO MAN ON EARTH WHO IS ABLE TO TEACH
AND LEAD MANKIND TO SALVATION APART FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THERE
IS NO NEED TO LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO TEACH YOU WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT DOES
EFFORTLESSLY. HE TEACHES US LOVE, TRUTH, MERCY, PEACE, GOODNESS, HUMILITY, AND
RIGHTEOUSNESS. There will be no more war, sickness, famine, hardship,
division, and economic regression if the entire world would practice the
teachings of Christ. MAN IS NOTHING WITHOUT GOD. LET US THEREFORE
SURRENDER OURSELVES COMPLETELY TO GOD. WE SHOULD PRAISE AND ADORE HIM. WE
SHOULD GLORIFY HIM FOR HE IS WORTHY OF ALL PRAISES. WE SHOULD LOVE GOD WITH ALL
OUR HEARTS, THOUGHTS AND DEEDS. WITH THIS THERE WILL BE PHYSICAL MANIFESTATION
OF LOVE ALL OVER THE WORLD AND THERE WILL BE PEACE AND THE WORLD WILL BE A SAFE
AND ENJOYABLE PLACE TO LIVE IN.
Going
to school is one thing, and being taught is another; but the most important thing
is putting the teachings you receive into practice. IN THE SAME VEIN,
HIS COMING ON EARTH IS ONE THING, TEACHING IS ANOTHER, BUT IF WE DO NOT ABIDE
BY HIS TEACHINGS AND PRACTICE SAME, WE ARE THE LOSERS. Read what he
says in the scripture below.
But the
anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that
anyone teach you: but the same anointing teacheth you all things, and is truth,
and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. (1ST.
JOHN 2:27).
He
teaches us love, truth, peace, mercy, humility, self-control, and all virtues
of righteousness and we must accept these teachings and scoff at all others if
we want salvation.
May the
Lord bless His Holy teachings. Amen.
THANK
YOU HOLY FATHER.
