First
Bible Lesson: John 4:24
"God
is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in
truth."
Second
Bible Lesson: John 14:26
"But
the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,
he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you."
Golden
Text: Galatians 5:22-23
"But
the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness,
goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."
This
constitutes the sign of this new Kingdom of God. By now everyone should have
been aware of the fact that we are in the new world, but the world knows Him
not. But that it may be fulfilled as was said by our Lord Jesus Christ. If you
love me, you will keep my commandment and I will plead with the Father and he
will send unto you another Comforter (John 14:15-16) who is
the Holy Spirit which the world has not known because they have not seen Him
but you know Him because He dwells in your heart and will continue to dwell in
your heart. The choristers had already rendered a piece on this. Before we
impart this lesson to you, He had already revealed everything even right from
your houses to you.
The
Beloved Shepherd Has Come To Lead
It is
my duty everyday to continue to remind you of this very lesson. You are
the children of the Kingdom of God. You are in the Kingdom of God. You are not
Nigerians. You are not Africans. You are not Europeans. You are not West
Indians. You are neither ghosts nor mermaids. You are not men of the
world. You are the children of God who are with Him and will continue to remain
with Him for ever and ever. For when the priesthood is changed, the law must of
necessity be changed in conformity. (Heb 7:12).
In the
past you were under the control of the flesh. The works of the flesh, like you
know, consist in falsehood, stealing division, fornication, killing, craftiness,
indulgence in the preparation of concoction and all kinds of sins. In the words
of a spiritual song, "spirit of the Lord of life come and lead." It
had been written that He will lead "That spirit has come down to lead
you." We also sing: "Lead us Thou Beloved Shepherd. That beloved
Shepherd has come". God is a spirit, and they who worship him must worship
him in spirit and in truth.
What
The Lord Has Taught Mankind
It has
been read to you, that the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will
send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your
remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. What has He taught to us? It is
said the fruit of the Spirit is love; (Gal 5:22) therefore has
he taught us love? He has taught us patience, truth, humility, self-control,
mercy, peace and all the virtues which can be found in the Kingdom of God. Joy,
happiness, humility, meekness, gentleness, righteousness are also the lessons
he has taught us. There is neither division, nor quarrelling, nor cheating, nor
seniority, nor minority. There is neither freeborn nor stranger, neither poor
nor rich neither young nor old. All of us should show the expression of love,
truth, meekness, mercy, patience and self-control.
The
Free Gift Of God
He is
teaching us. He also heals our infirmities, protects and feeds, transforms and
ministers grace unto us. He teaches by practical demonstration. He charges no
fee for his lessons. When he heals, He does not demand a candle. When He
protects, He requires no perfume. When he bestows grace, He does so with open
arms. He gives us life, food, health, money, houses, beauty and all the good
things of life.
Prayer,
The Only Sacrifice In the Kingdom
In this
Kingdom, neither frowning nor segregation is required. There is a marked
difference between the practices in Brotherhood and those in the world. In the
world, if you have to build a house, you will be expected to appease the land.
Wherever people congregate in the world, libation pouring and sacrifices are
expected. But in this Kingdom of God, neither sacrifice nor libation is
required. Once you go to a place, you only have to say thanks and
praises be given to God, in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ and everything
will remain calm. We have no other sacrifices to offer. Wherever it
may be, only give thanks to the Father, and all is well; because, as God, He is
the controller of heaven and earth.
The
only sacrifice required by the Holy Spirit is prayer. Do not be
mistaken about it. If you find yourself in a gathering where libation is
poured, depart from there. Tell the people that in this new world the
Holy Spirit only requires spoken words. Once you speak with the word of your
mouth, it will be fulfilled. He requires neither perfume, nor candle,
nor incense, nor psalms, nor ring, nor gold, nor silver, nor any other thing.
All He wants is thanks: "Thank you Father. This is your house;
these are your children; this is your world. All things belong to you. Let your
will alone be done." He is able to contain any situation and you
will have no problems. What we have to do is to thank him, tell Him our request
and do what He instructs us. If He orders that we should stand there, there we
stand. Jump up and we jump, Love one another and we obey. Be truthful, do not drink,
do not commit adultery and we obey his instruction.
God
the Omniscient
I am
thankful to the Father immensely because He has come Himself sending no one;
but the people of the world are still searching for him. It is meet that you
should boast in Him because you have a Father. I have a Father and all the
inhabitants of the world have a Father. What remains for you to do is
to reveal Him to the entire world that they may recognize him. The
Choristers had already rendered the piece which asked: "What shakes the
world? It is His coming." Since people are doubting and will not believe
Him, problem sets in. As many as received Him, their problems are over. You are
lucky because you have received Him. But your problem rests in your refusal to
practise His injunctions. The problem we still have is refusal to abide
by his teachings. If you were to practise his teachings, you would
suffer neither from headache nor stomach ache, wretchedness, nor tribulation
nor death. He has taught you love, mercy, patience, truth, happiness, joy and
all other virtues, because our Lord Jesus Christ had already said that when He
comes He will teach you all things. He has taught you many things and will
teach more. He has taught you how to manufacture electricity, cars. He has taught
engineering of all branches, administrative procedures, and other things. What
do you think of a person who can tell you that which is in the water, what
happened when the world was void and without form, what each person is, whether
white or black.
God
Teaches Man All Things
As we
are now, if you leave for London, no person will ask when you arrived in London
because he will find you already socialized and acclimatized as a Londoner. If
you go to China, you will not learn from any person because He has already
taught you. You will rather be the one to teach others what they should do as
that great man has taught you since you know Him but the world knows him not.
He will lead you aright. If you engage in trading, He will teach you. You will
gain business acumen much more than those who started trading about twenty
years before. Learning is very simple because immediately you kneel
down and make your request known to Him, He will teach you everything which you
will reproduce for the examiner. When people talk about the whites
being versed in Psychology and in other fields, He is the greatest Psychologist
and the Dean of the Faculty of Psychology. What has He taught us? When you are
looking at somebody He will tell you what the person is. He will show you the
position of certain things and how to move one thing from one place to another,
how to walk and where to enter. When you follow his directives, you score all
the marks.
He is
in the world but the world knows Him not. If you analyze the teachings given you
in relation with the goings on in the world, you will realise that He is the
one. He has brought all of us together. People are now equally gathered in
groups in many places, and in all parts of the world. No one waits to be
instructed because He has directed people to converge at certain places. He is
in water, on mountain, beneath the earth, in the moon and sun and stars and in
everything. The same messages He gives to us, He also gives to those in water,
on the earth beneath the earth, in Nigeria, and even in America.
The
Directive Of The Holy Spirit
We have
no other thing to think of since we have no problems and the one written about
has come. The spirit has come to this earth and is passing through your heart,
village, farm and everywhere. We should call upon Him in our lamentation and
listen to Him in whatever He tells us to do. He is our God. He is our Lord. He
is our Father. He is our Teacher. Do not trust in man. Do not trust in your
husband or in your person or in any other person. You only have to hope on Him,
and Him alone should you look unto.
If by
the time you came in this evening you had your hope in money or in this world,
re-order your thought. Hope on the Spirit that is now here. If you have a
troubled mind, whether you are indebted to somebody, or you have a court case,
or you are sick, or you are beset with any problem at all, change your mind and
begin to focus on this Spirit and you will notice that all those problems will
subside.
Trust
In The Spirit
I tell
you that it is quite true when you hear that to be carnally minded is death.
When you are vested with the thought of concoction, man, money, what to eat,
that means death. Because what induces a man to kill is hopelessness. When you
imagine that you have neither relation, nor money, and that you are indebted to
people and facing court actions and enemies, your confidence will be shaken.
But right now, when you focus all your thoughts on the Holy Spirit now on
earth, you are on top of the world.
If you
have never practised any other gospel, try today's gospel which marks
the commencement of this Pentecostal Assembly on this day of the Spirited
Children's Fellowship meeting with the Father. If you practise it,
redemption and salvation will come to you. Note that it does not cost you any
money. What is involved is your believing that God is a Spirit and those who
worship Him have to believe in Him, have faith in Him and render services unto
Him. Believe fervently that He protects and feeds you and that with Him your
problems are light, and He is capable of taking them away.
Listen
to whatever He teaches you and practise same without questioning or doubts. Do
not even admit because such are counterfeited. Remember that our Lord Jesus
Christ had said, "call no one Teacher, for one is the Teacher and you are
all brethren." (Matt 23:8) When you offer prayer, He
prays. When we talk about testimonies, He is the one preaching. He is the one
healing our infirmities. He offers protection. When mention is made of changing,
He is the one changing. He gives us food. He gives us beauty. Why is it that
you do not rejoice? All the while you had wandered about in the world with
baskets of tears, did you find salvation? You initiated into secret societies,
consulted oracles, injected black powder and attempted other things, did you
find peace? He has brought overwhelming peace. When you are sick, you take no
medication, you drink no water, you take no enema or even pray, but your
sickness will vanish. In like manner your problems will vanish while you are
changed as well.
What
pleases me most is that He does not forsake you, neither does He receive any
money from you, nor demand praises. He does not change. He works in a
miraculous way. He has said that He will change you. Again He promised to teach
you all things. He changes us free of charge. He teaches us all things free of
charge. He protects us free of charge. What sort of Father this is!
Let
us surrender ourselves unto Him. Let us hope on
Him. Let us believe in Him. Converse with Him in your house, where
you stand, it does not require shouting. The Holy Spirit is
not deaf or blind. He is with you wherever you are. He has come in full swing
to change, protect and give us the glory which we had with Him. Our first
lesson will now be read.
First
Bible Lesson: John 4:24
"God
is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in
truth."
Brethren
have you heard that? God is a spirit and true worshippers must worship Him in
spirit and in truth. If God is spirit, why do you worship tree, water, metal or
man? Such things incur problems and difficulties on you. All things shall pass
away but the Spirit endures forever because He is God. When the world was void
and without form, He still existed. (Gen 1:2). He creates
water, air, mountains, trees, and all things yet He remains with the same
spirit. It was the will of God to abide with man forever. But because our first
father derailed from the path of God, by defiling himself, that was the problem
between man and God. Since then did man start to live a reprobate life; because
man no longer took cognizance of God. It was for this reason that He promised
that He would come and will teach you all things.
Assignment
Of The Spirit
The
major thing that the Spirit has come to do is to teach us all things. The
teachings and all other practises in the world are carnal. Box your worldly
acquired knowledge, problems and difficulties and bury such a box deep in the
ground. Thereafter, listen attentively to the knowledge brought by our Lord
Jesus Christ to you. He is a Spirit. He is a Teacher. He is the Truth. We have
to follow His teachings, instructions, advice, and words. God is the word. His
word is Truth. His word is Life. His word is power. His word is advice. His
word is the way. His word is everything and we have to listen to His word, walk
according to His instruction and apply His knowledge.
If you
wish, you can experiment after hearing this word. Stay put even if you were a
professor. God will tell you all that you had learnt if you pray. This will
expose all the things you had learnt. He will show you his supreme knowledge. As
a medical doctor you had been taught curative medicine and even how to conduct
a surgical operation or do other things. But God teaches you the shortest way
to do it.That is, on saying "let", all is let loose, and the
sickness gone. Are you not surprised that after spending seven to twelve years
to train as a medical doctor and specialize in many areas, with series of
research to your credit, your diagnosis still fails to reveal a sickness? But
the way of God is short, when you thank God, "Let thanks and
praises be given to God," a patient is healed.
Since
He is the Father of wisdom, love, power and the Father of all good things; what
prevents you then from surrendering yourself unto Him, trusting in Him, obeying
and complying with His instructions? We walked in the flesh when we were not in
Him, or rather when He was not in us. But now we have to follow His
injunctions. Carnality is death. These are tribulations, wretchedness and
separation from God. But the Spirit makes a new covenant with the house of
Israel and with the house of Judah, not according to the covenant that I made
with their fathers because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded
them not. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel
after those days, I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their
hearts, and they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his
brother, saying, know the Lord; for all shall know me from the least to the
greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and their sins and their
iniquities will I remember no more. (Heb 8:10-12)
The
Holy Spirit Is The Supernatural Teacher
Do you
not notice how that Spirit is as adhesive as the tar? While on the bed, he is
with you. While sitting, he converses with you. While walking on the
way, He converses with you. He is the greatest Teacher, and has come to teach
you. Why do you not surrender yourself to His own directives? Man is
no longer deceived. When you say that someone has backslided from Brotherhood,
where does he go to? Even if a person is in the sun, the conversion goes still
on since he is still with the Father. The same thing happens when he is in the
water. You complain that somebody is dead, where does he go to? When you
complain that someone has gone on transfer, where does he go to? Pray fervently
for yourself for such thoughts.
The
new covenant which He has made with you is to send the Holy Spirit to dwell
with you and teach you all things. Your responsibility is to listen attentively
to Him, and comply with His instruction without doubting or questioning. You are a
scholar, do not listen to what the teacher tells you but listen to the Holy
Spirit, the Supernatural Teacher. It is the Holy Spirit who teaches the Dean of
your faculty, in secular schools. The Holy Spirit can even direct you to detect
a mistake to your professor who will accept without questioning. You can
consult a lawyer for a case but while he is arguing the case, you will point
out that he left out a point. When he hears it, he will be very happy you have
pointed it out. Yet that person is supposed to be your lawyer. Why do you not
understand that the Supernatural Teacher who is all-wise, puts every other
knowledge to nought. If you go to school to be trained as an engineer, it is
only a formality, and a means of proving the knowledge of the Holy
Spirit. Maybe you are new, on arrival to commence your studies knock
your head on the ground and say, "Father it has been said that you will
teach men all things, come and teach me, for I know nothing." You will
even begin to teach your boss the positioning of metals and he will look at you
with amazement. In any office that you go to work, once you are with the
Father, you have become a teacher to the Permanent Secretary, or Commissioners
or any person at all in authority. Pastor Okon Esien-Umo, from experience,
knows what I am talking about though in spite of this, he does not enjoy
additional benefit.
He
Guides
If you
wish to travel abroad, where you have never gone to, knock your head on the
ground calling on the Father: "Father, I have never travelled abroad, I
know I am going with you, lead me to and fro." That is all you need and He
will lead you straight to your destination. Brethren, if your things are
disorganized and you cannot dictate immediately, do not bother crying aloud but
kneel down calling on Him: "Father, I am ignorant and stupid but I lean on
you. Where you have kept that thing I do not know but thank you because you
have found it for me." Brethren, in no distant time, you will be directed
to the missing item.
Somebody
comes to transact business with you, or a stranger comes to you, do not ask
where he comes from or who He is. Kneel on the ground and converse with your
Father. "I do not know this man. I do not know what he has come to do. I
am ignorant but I lean on you. Reveal yourself." Brethren, that person
will be revealed to you in detail. Somebody comes to ask your hand in marriage,
call on the Father. "Father, I have never got married, reveal yourself and
take control of the situation." He will take charge of the affairs to such
an extent that you will be asked how you acquired your experience. You may
visit a place you have never been to. Call on Him: "Father I have never
visited this city, I do not know now what is in it, come and lead me and do your
work yourself." Brethren, he will put the whole city into your hands to
the wonderment of the indigenes who will question your integrity. That is so
because He creates every one of them. Because He is in you. He is in them. He
created them. He created you. He controls you all.
Teach
and Bring To Remembrance
He has
come to teach us all things and bring them to our remembrance. It is not only
praying, giving vision and healing that we are concerned. He has come to teach
us all things. If there is any strange place or thing, He reveals all. He has
come to teach us all things and nothing is left that He will not teach us. It
is not that everyday you appear here that you want prayer. When I observe this
I wonder what you people are after. Our second lesson will now be read, so that
you know and advice yourself.
Second
Bible Lesson: John 14:26
"But
the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,
he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you."
Let me
enumerate to you. You are taught French, German, Greek, English, Igbo, Hausa,
and all other languages in the world. There is no language that He cannot
teach. In addition to languages, sciences, arts, business, and other disciplines,
He has taught you love, peace, truth, joy, and other virtues. He has also
taught you what is in the soil, what is in man, what cannot be comprehended by
man.
Doctrines
Of The Christ
Have
you not realized that empty we came into the world and empty shall we go back.
But people still steal, tell lies, fornicate, murder, and quarrel about the
things of this earth. They forget one important thing that they are strangers
to this earth to which they came naked and will return naked. He has taught us
that we came into the world naked and naked shall we certainly return. Once we
have what to eat and put on, we should rest content. We are also told that it
is better to give than to receive. (Acts 20:35). But the world
contends that giving impoverishes, since they do not have this wisdom and they
refuse to listen to the Holy Spirit. We are told to lay our treasures in
heaven, that is to serve God. By being generous, it means we have laid
our treasures in heaven which is more abundant than what is on earth.
We are
taught that if we are invited to any gathering, we should first sit at a very
lowly place, perchance somebody higher than yourself had been invited. When you
take a low seat and the owner of the feast finds you, he will invite you to a
higher place where you will have honour (Luke 14:8-10). He has also
taught us that whatever the right hand does, the left should not know. (Matt
6:3) He also teaches us that when we make a feast we should not invite
the rich who pay back. Rather we should call the poor, such as will not be able
to repay till doomsday. And you shall be blessed because they cannot recompense
you; for you shall be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.(Luke
14:14)
Abide
By The Teaching Of Our Lord Jesus The Christ
He
teaches us too that whoever will be great among you, should be your minister;
and whoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant. (Matt
20:26-27) The greatest amongst you shall be the minister. Can you
observe the teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ? He also teaches that the least
amongst is the greatest in this Kingdom of God. He has taught us to speak the
truth always: Most importantly, he has taught us not to constitute ourselves
into a burden for any person. He has warned that we should not eat any man's
food for nought, (2 Thess 3:8) and that we should not feed the
idle, but labour with your hands for your food. Do not steal, but use your
yields to assist the needy. It is a very important teaching. He teaches too
that we should be swift to hear, slow to speak and slow to wrath. (James
1:19).Brethren we are taught many things. If we should abide by his
teachings, even right from this night, we will not have any problems for
ourselves.
A wife
complains of the husband, the husband in turn complains of the wife. Have they
not received the teachings? You argue that, since your father marries many
wives, you have to marry many wives too. You argue that since your mother
married many husbands, and even maintained many boyfriends, you have to equally
parade the corridors of men. Is that what our Lord Jesus Christ teaches?
Brethren,
all that we have previously learnt, do not qualify us for entry into the
Kingdom of God. He knows that we have not attained the knowledge of the truth.
It is for this reason that He, the Supernatural Teacher has come by Himself to
teach all mankind and lead them to the knowledge of the truth so that we can
retrace our steps from the path of iniquity. Right now those who have
money, do not make good use of it. Those who have children do not make good use
of them. Those in good health do not make good use of their health. There is no
person who makes the best use of his privilege nor live a life expected by God.
Weapons
Employed To Destroy The Work Of Satan
You do
remember that all those who commit sin are satanic. Because satan had been
committing sin from the beginning. It was for this reason that the son of God
was sent to destroy the works of satan. What is used in destroying the
works of satan? It is love, truth, mercy, peace, patience, self-control, and
all other virtues of God that are put into practise. Such practices destroy the
works of satan. This is indeed what the Comforter has come to teach. Because
what the flesh has taught you instead is how to smear excrement on people. It
consists in stealing, deceit, murder, falsehood, fornication, trouble-making,
and destruction. You are taught about war, stealing, anger, weeping,
lamentations, division, diabology and other things that do not give glory unto
God. But the Comforter has come to give the real teaching which derives from
Him.
Become
A Fool In Order To Be Wise
That is
why the scripture says that if any of you says he is prudent let him become a
fool that he may be wise. (1 Cor 3:18) I am pleading with you
today, which is the Spirited Children's Meeting, that if you had been wise,
whether you had been a lawyer, professor, armed robber, prostitute, native
doctor, bishop or whatever you are in this world, comply with the lessons of
the Supernatural Teacher who is now on earth. Whatever knowledge you acquire in
this world gives you the impetus to "find your way to money" and the
end of it is hell. There is no knowledge or teaching in this world which leads
to this Kingdom of God. All that the world struggles for ends here. There is no
person who seeks for eternal life, or glory, but all your worldly teachings
lead you to hell. It is for this reason that you steal, tell lies, indulge in
the preparation of concoction, offer and receive bribe, kill and bear false
witness. All these are done in order that you may be rich. But upon all the
struggling, how much wealth have you acquired for yourself?
Sinning
For Self Aggrandizement
Wars
result from your deeds. You kill with guns and do not bother. You ask, and
receive not because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. (James
4:3). Notice that God knows the hearts of all the inhabitants of the
world that this world is but empty. When God created heaven and earth, all
precious things you can imagine were found embedded in the soil. There was no
room for hunger. God arranged everything for man. Read Ezekiel
28:13-14. You had heard that there was no hunger, lack, sickness and
hatred. Why was it so? The tabernacle of God was with man. But since
man disobeyed God, he was rusticated and driven out of the garden, the
wonderful land. He was sent to the hard rocks.
Brethren,
you can steal, you are hard hearted, charging your brother who eats in your
house, receiving money for any service rendered. You demand to know how much
you will be paid for drawing these charges, how much money do you have? What
wealth have you accumulated for yourself?
Do you
know that heaven and earth belong to God, the earth and its fullness belong to
God? Who shall ascend unto the hill of the Lord, (Ps 24:3) or
who shall dwell in His holy place? He who had clean hands and a pure heart, who
has not lifted his soul unto vanity nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the
blessing from the lord. Right now, amongst all the whites and black, who is the
man whose heart is pure and whose hands are clean, who has not given his soul
to deceit and vanity. Mention just one person. Rather, there are plans to kill
in order to have money, indulge in diabology for protection, deceive and do
many things for self aggrandizement. Upon all these struggles, where is the
money?
It is
on this basis that the Supernatural Teacher has come to lead mankind to the
accurate wisdom of the truth. His teaching leads to heaven. More importantly it
endows us with glory, wealth, and eternal life. Our golden text will now be
read. Listen to the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Golden
Text: Galatians 5:22-23
"But
the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace long suffering, gentleness,
goodness, faith,
Meekness,
temperance: against such there is no law."
Have
you heard that? Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness and all
other things shall be added unto you. (Matt 6:33/Luke 12:31) You
have first to clear undergrowth of a bush, before you trim the top trees and
allow the trash to dry before you set fire. The first thing is for us
to have the knowledge of God; show the expression of love, truth, patience,
peace, mercy, goodness, humility and all the virtues of God. It is the
premier requirement in this Kingdom. It will give us glory, wealth and
everlasting life.
What
The Holy Spirit Has Not Taught
The
lessons delivered to us everyday are meant for each and every one of us to
practise. We should not teach since we are not teachers. It is on this basis
that it is said that God is a Spirit and true worshippers must worship God in
Spirit and in truth. (John 4:24) We have to practise his
teachings. We should possess love, peace, and all other virtues of God. He
teaches us love, we should therefore, possess love. He teaches us mercy, we
should have faith, patience, and peace. Have you not observed the practice of
these lessons. These lessons are before us to put into practice.
You
have problems and difficulties because many of you do not possess love, mercy,
patience, and peace. That is why you are in a very pathetic situation. In spite
of what the Holy Spirit has taught us, a brother still takes court action
against his brother, a brother still snatches his brother's wife and a sister,
her sister's husband. A brother still extorts another, and speaks evil against
another. From where do you derive such doctrines? Has the Holy Spirit ever
taught you to take court action against any person? Or that you should receive
bribe, tell lies, curse, snatch people's husband, indulge in diabologies? Where
do you learn these doctrines from?
Practise
The Gospel
It
is not coming here everyday that matters, but putting the daily lessons into
practice. He alone is the teacher, all of us are students. Do not
teach your child by precept how to do good. Do good yourself and your wife,
children and every one around you will follow your example. Do not beguile or
vilify any person. You are taught to love, to show mercy, live in peace, to be
humble. It is for each and every one of us to practise His teachings. The Holy
Spirit has no business with quarrelling, fornication, strife, diabology,
fighting or with other vices you commit.
It has
been said in the laws and the prophets that God shall teach them all things and
those who receive His teachings shall follow me. Do you realise that
God is teaching us, the Holy Spirit is teaching us everything and those who
believe in this teaching are those who will follow our Lord Jesus Christ? It is
said, many are called but few are chosen.(Matt 22:14) Who are those
called? These are all of us. Who are the chosen? Those who practise his
teachings. He heals us free of charge. He elects us free of charge. When
we sin, and confess of our sins, and become truly repentant, he forgives us,
and does not impute sins on us. He does not disgrace us. He does not blaspheme
against us. He does not drive us away never has He quarrelled with any person.
Each of
us knows how much we have disgraced and insulted God. We are aware of the
abominable life we live aimed at disgracing God. Have you heard that the Holy
Spirit is quarrelling with you or getting angry with you? Many people have been
to Brotherhood and backslide for many years during which they do many unseemly
things. When they come back do you observe whether He gets angry with you or
quarrel with you? Whenever you come, he receives you, and rejoices with even
those who do not come here. The Holy Spirit serves every person in the world
equally. Many who are here do not practise any word of God. They indulge in
diabologies, take to medication, tell lies, fornicate, extort in different
ways. Do you find Him angry or driving them, or frowning against Him?
He
expresses the practicality of His love. He teaches us love, mercy, truth,
patience, humility, and other attributes. He has no other nature. He has no
business with any form of sin. Do not go to tell people that you are a
Brotherhood. Even when you tell lies, or fornicate, you will still want people
to believe that you are a Brotherhood. That is not Brotherhood you are
practising. When you were not yet called, you did not know that drinking,
fornication, stealing, quarrelling are sinful. But today, amongst us all, who
does not know that those things are not required. If you had always paid back
evil for evil, since we started disgracing people, have we noticed any change in
the Holy Spirit, or how he turns round to fight us?
When
you give instructions to your child or wife or husband once or twice but he
will not listen, you will discontinue with him. But with God, in spite of our
sins, He continues to love us. He teaches us love, shows mercy, enriches and
praises us. He bestows all good things to us and His promises are more
abundant. Those who groan and moan, he attends to them and caters for their
needs, blesses and uplifts them. He blesses thieves, ghosts and apparition. He
has liberated every person.
Brethren,
a stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. We shall not be tedious unto
you. He who has ears let him hear. May God bless His Holy Words. A-men!
