    THE PROPHECY OF CHRIST FULFILLED

    First lesson: Matthew: 6:9-10 “After this manner therefore pray ye; Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” Second lesson: Revelation: 2I:I-3 “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city; new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying. Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.” Golden text: Matthew: 24:33-43 “So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that day and hour knoweth no man no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the Goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.” 5.1 One Government, one currency. Beloved brethren, this sermon is a discourse on the fulfillment of the words spoken by Our Lord Jesus Christ, many years ago. This is by way of reminding the entire world and declaring as a witness, the manifestation of the portions of the scriptures. The salient question arising from the parable of the wicked husbandmen (Matt. 21:33-46) is: who were the husbandmen, the farmers? Who cultivated the soil and fenced the farm? Was it the farmer or the householder who built a fence around his farm? Who also sent the servants to carry out the harvest? Who sent the prophets and angels who were beaten, chased out of the farm and even killed? Was it not the owner of the farm who sent in messengers to work for him? The first group was victimised and so was the second. Finally, He sent His only begotten Son who was equally manhandled and killed. Even when the Lord told them that He was sent by His Father. The people did not believe Him. God sent down His begotten Son, in the belief that the husbandmen would recognise and respect Him yet, they did not. “But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, they will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, this is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.” (Matthew: 2I:37-38) 5.2 The Lord of the harvest Who was the Son? Was He not Our Lord Jesus Christ? Who sent Him? Was it not God, the Father? Why did He send Him? The answer is found in His statement, which He said "They will reverence my Son." For what reason did the husbandmen kill the heir? Their ambition was to claim the vineyard. Who else do you think God should have sent after such torture, humiliation and even further threats? A local adage says, when the battle is fierce, the king takes over the command. Herein lies the answer. This means that the king himself has now taken over the command, having seen the battle is really fierce. He is the commander- in- chief of the spiritual armed forces. He has come by Himself. Now is not the time for anybody to ascribe the glory and praises of God to any human being present or past. It is out of foolishness for any man to thank Olumba Olumba Obu, Joseph, Moses, or any of the prophets of old for anything. What were the prophets of old able to do? Recall the question Our Lord Jesus Christ asked His disciples after the parable. He asked them, when the Lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will He do unto the husbandmen? The disciples in one accord replied that He, the owner of the vineyard would utterly destroy the wicked men and take away His vineyard and entrust it to other servants who would accurately render the farm's yields to Him in their seasons. This is exactly what is happening now on earth. Which other person or being is capable of destroying this earth and re-organising or reconstructing it other than the Creator Himself Spiritual chorus I have come by myself sending no one. I will also reveal myself to the world that I have not come to die again as people think. Therefore my people should sing and rejoice, for I, the Lord have assumed my glory. 5.3 An everlasting reigning Monarch Beloved, this gospel centres on the fact that, this is the reign and glory of the Holy Spirit. Do not ascribe this glory to any man or angel but to the owner. God, the Father who has come by Himself. He would not have repeated the same mistake by sending messengers, only to be manhandled and killed. This explains the reason why He has come by Himself. We should therefore give Him His glory and honour. 5.4 A time for God's children to harvest freely All along, people have been calling on Jesus repeatedly. Yet violence, hunger, diseases and death have not ceased. Our Lord Jesus Christ came, was arrested by the same husbandmen and nailed to the cross. Our Lord Jesus Christ asked His disciples what the Lord of the vineyard would do to these husbandmen when He comes? By this question, the Lord was invariably, informing the world of the coming of the Father who Himself is the Lord of the vineyard. 5.5 Leave vengeance to the Lord Christ once said that even though God may be slow in His response, yet He never forgets. Therefore He has this day, hearkened to the prayers of His faithful ones. In another instance also. Our Lord Jesus Christ prayed His Father to let His kingdom come. (Matthew: 6:I0). This is the exact time He pre-arranged the vengeance for His children. This is the reason why Christ advised us to leave vengeance to God. Thus, He advised that if you are slapped on the right cheek, you should turn the left for the same purpose. He also advised that if a man wants your inner wear, you should also give your cloak; and if he should desire that you should go a mile with him, go two instead. By so doing, the Father will not fail to carry out His vengeance, despite His longsuffering. 5.6 On evil deeds God has said categorically clear that no evildoer will be saved. This explains why He teaches us to refrain from stealing, killing, idolatry, fornication, hatred, division, falsehood and other ungodly acts. 5.7 On tithe paying He has rather advised that we should be meek, prompt in tithe payment, kind and obedient. He has promised to take vengeance on our behalf and destroy the wicked husbandmen and their likes. 5.8 On oath taking He has warned you against swearing either by the heaven for it is His throne or by the earth for it is His footstool. No man should swear even by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great king. Let your yes be yes and your no be no. Anything short of this, the Lord says, comes from the wicked one. Today, however, even the so-called Christians; swear by the name of God as a matter of routine. 5.9 Total power of the Father Pilate put Our Lord Jesus Christ in the dock and asked Him several questions, but He never responded at all. Out of anger, Pilate asked Christ whether He did not know that he had the power to either release or condemn Him? What was Christ's reply? Christ told Pilate that, if His Father did not give him the power from above, he would do nothing. By that statement, Our Lord Jesus Christ bore eloquent testimony to the power of the Father. But today, who do people testify of? On what do you base your testimony? 5.10 The Father has come The Father has come by Himself. Our Lord Jesus Christ did not relent in calling on the Father. He always mentioned the Father either at the beginning of His statement or at the end. He made sure He glorified His Father and attributed everything to Him. 5.11 Watch and pray It is said that if the male servants had known what hour the thief would come, they would have kept watch. This means that you have to keep watch at all times; in the morning afternoon, evening, night and midnight. Who in the world is aware of the arrival of the Father as promised? The same God who sent Elijah and other prophet of old, created heaven and earth and the fullness therein and who sent Our Lord Jesus Christ is now here on earth. 5.12 The Creator of heaven and earth Is there anyone who knows that the Father, even the Creator is on earth? Do the rogues, drunkards, smokers, idolaters, the unfaithful and unbelievers know this? He has come to straighten all crooked paths and put things aright. Jesus said in John: 16: 7 - 11 “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away, for if l go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if l depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they' believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this "world is judged.” 5.13 The time of judgment Now is the time of judgment. He has come to address all the wrongs perpetrated by men. Our Lord Jesus Christ explained to the people that He was sent by His Father but they did not believe Him. The Jews contended it was written in their laws that, the genealogy of the messiah could not be traced. And that He was a man whose parents were not known, but also assessed and found Him to belong to the lowest class in their society. For that reason, none then and even now believes in the Lord and His words. Philip, one of the disciples also demonstrated this act of unfaithfulness when he sought the Lord to show them the Father whom He so frequently mentioned and they would be satisfied. That was when the Father came through the Son Jesus Christ. Now, He has personally come down using no intermediary. But who knows Him? 5.14 Glorify his Name Our duty is to glorify Him, be of good conduct, and refrain from all sinful acts. Disputers of the word of God should refrain from unnecessary argument and be good mannered, for this is the judgment time for all. Evildoers should pray fervently for themselves. Now is not the time to continue praying to God for money, food, husband, wife, children and other material things. We should rather be relentless in thanking Him and praising His name, for His kingdom is here. The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of Jehovah God and His Christ and he shall reign forever and ever. This forms the good news of great joy. 5.15 He has come He has come in His power, might and wisdom. None should feel proud of his or her material wealth and knowledge, for these are insignificant in the sight of God. After all, is He not the Creator and owner of all the things that man claims to own? He is the Lord and King of wisdom, power, health, wealth and all things. Our part is to bow down to Him, sing to His praises, glorify His name and call upon Him every time. Whether in bed, at the table, on the road, in our conversations, in and out of season, we are to praise Him at all times. In times of joy and trouble, continue to call upon His name. It is blasphemous for anybody to arrogate to himself the ability to see visions heal or to do anything. It is an offence of gross proportion for any person to trade on visions, prayer or any service in the kingdom. Members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star are the most guilty in this wise. Who on earth has the power to do anything? If you are not the doer of this great works, then why do you charge a fee when indeed, it is God who has healed a person or opened your eyes to see visions? These visioners and so-called healers are so faithless and full of unbelief, whereas when left on their own, they cannot move a fly. 5.16 Man is empty and void It is really funny to watch a man testify of how he has healed diverse illnesses, prayed until the dead were raised and done many other wonderful things. What is man in the first place, and what does he know? The doer of all things, the beginning and last of all things is here and we should give Him glory. In the past, man, angels and spirits were glorified but now is the time for God to be glorified. Let the first lesson be read again. First lesson: Matthew: 6: 9-I0 “After this manner therefore pray ye; Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” 5.17 Time for God's glory We are indeed the luckiest generation to have God's promise fulfilled in our time. We have a Father: the Father of peace, hope, mercy, truth, and all the virtues. Time has since passed and gone when people entertained various fears. There is no more sorrows and pains. Weep no more, for the Saviour is not on His way but already in our midst. He is the Comforter and Adviser; the only way, the truth and life. Do not give God's glory to man, who is mere mortal and incapable of doing anything. 5.18 The only ruling force Humble yourself, and do not be proud of having power or wealth. Submit to Him and give Him His due glory, In the entire Cross River and Akwa Ibom States of Nigeria, there is no particular person as wicked and adventurous as the people of Ukwa Ibom in Cross River State and Achara Okpo in Abia State. But it should interest you to know that, the Father has come into their midst and subdued them. They were at daggers drawn one with one another, and not even the government. Federal and State could successfully intervene in their- communal boundary conflict. They have now laid down their arms because they have seen this glory. The same rancour prevailed between Adim and Agwaguna in Cross River State. The squabble defied every human solution. But by celebrating a full feast, peace has been restored in their midst and they are united as one. All liars, idolaters, sorcerers and evildoers should refrain from their evil acts. I have been tolerating you all along. The Lord of the vineyard is here. Tell the world to retrace her steps from evil. 5.19 Listen to God This is not the time for the establishment of churches, healing homes and prayer houses. Tell even the government to listen to God and obey His rules. It is time we loved one another, humbled ourselves and became merciful and meek. We are God's vineyard, temple, city, kingdom and His Christ. We should rise in concert and glorify Him just as Christ testified of His glory in every statement that He made. Our duty is to chorus that His words are true. Nobody should consult his fellow man, angel or spirit for anything. There should be no ritual sacrifice of any sort and for any reason whatsoever. The Father is in perfect control of all affairs. He shares His glory with only those He chooses. Go and advise all to desist from carnal thoughts. Tell the sorcerers, prostitutes, deceivers and swindlers to refrain from such devilish acts. People who are power- thirsty and egoistic should bow down to God and give every glory to Him. The owner of heaven and earth and the fullness therein is now on earth. It is God's wish that none should perish. This is why He has come by Himself. Therefore, go and inform all those who claim ownership of one thing or the other to desist from such claims. Tell those who struggle for land, houses and positions to stop it, for the real owner and Creator of everything is here. The owner of cities, human beings, banks, governments and their agencies, children, husbands, wives, water, air, mountain, and all things has come. Our only duty is to show complete obedience and loyalty to Him. Let us all carry the banner of Christ and His truth to the entire inhabitants of the world to follow. No matter how little your services to God may be, He shows His divine blessings on you lavishly when you serve Him. 5.20 The world is empty and void We have no reason to consult physicians, herbalists, sorcerers, healers or soothsayers: The whole world is empty and human beings are also blank, without any knowledge. Man's only hope is in the Father. What is written in the book of Isaiah chapter two is here fulfilled. Let us now turn away from evil and embrace peace, love, truth, and all the virtues, which form the component parts of the kingdom. He teaches, guides, and cares for us all daily. No man is capable of changing, caring for, or tolerating his fellow man. 5.21 A message to the world His appearance now is a clear indication that His spirit flourishes over all the earth. He has come with His host of angels, children of God and His long awaited kingdom. Let us now leap for joy, and sing His praises. Let all those who are at war lay down their arms. Tell litigants to withdraw all their cases from the court. The judges should desist from judging others. Let all evildoers and whore mongers refrain from their evil ways. Now is the time to obey the voice of God and turn a new leaf, for destruction is at the doorstep of every man, for the elimination of disobedient people. Tell all politicians who form the habit of deceiving the people, cheating and looting the public treasury to refrain from such acts. Tell the troublemakers, coup plotters, usurpers of governments and all evildoers to desist from these obnoxious ways. Let us read our second lesson. Second lesson: Revelation: 2I: 1-3. “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city; new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying. Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.” 5.22 The new world: Nigeria, Africa should note How many of those who have been reading this passage believe in its content? Who in the world today believe that God is here on earth? Christ is here with us, and so is the Holy Spirit and the angels. We are all God's children and by that His messengers and servants. We are now in a New World. The old one has given way with old things. Now, ask yourself why the attention of the world is focused on Nigeria in particular and Africa as a whole. Has anyone read the present events in the world in books, seen in a vision or dream? He has come to reign in heaven and on earth. He is neither Olumba nor any prophet. He is not an angel either. His glory has no beginning or end. His reign has no limit at all. 5.23 America should be careful Tell America that claims to be the world police to put its sword into its place. The same warning goes to China, Spain, Britain, Russia, France and all the troublesome countries the world over. Now is the time for peace, love, truth and glory of God. God abhors disobedience. All wars and oppression must stop. No person should take vengeance; God has promised that vengeance is His. He will repay. Members of various secret societies should resign their membership and follow God. He is with us everywhere and at all times. We are very lucky to be called the children of God and given the right of son-ship. 5.24 He is for the salvation of the world A thousand days of man could be a day before God and vice versa. He is constantly and gradually changing us into His form. He has come, not for Nigerians or Africans alone but for the whole world. 5.25 The picture of the new world presented The time has since gone when anger, division, war, cheating, swindling, oppression, occultism and other evil practices ruled over man. There is no distinction as to colour, race, age, sex or status in life in the Kingdom of God, for we are all one in the Lord. This is completely a new world in which peace, love, truth, co-operation, economic integration under one universal umbrella prevails. It is one currency under one government throughout the world. This gospel is to be disseminated to all parts of the world. He that perishes has himself to blame, as his soul shall also perish with him. No man has ever contested with the Holy Spirit. Therefore, you have to submit to Him and live in peace. Do not seek for salvation and solution to your problems from any man. Let your hope and trust be centred on the Creator. Go to Him on bended knees and he would surely give you rest. He has said that this generation will not pass away until every word that He spoke shall be made consummate. "This generation" refers to this twentieth century. The end of the twentieth century will mark the end of all hostilities; diseases, illnesses and all sinful acts, division, hunger. And all forms of problems will be over at the turn of the century. A new world order will henceforth prevail. 5.26 Transition period We are now in a transitional period into oneness, unity, love, peace and every goodness. Now is the time to get the kingdom from the disobedient and wicked husbandmen and give it to those who keep His commandments. In this kingdom, there is no place for divided loyalty, falsehood, self-development and whatever form of projection. God has now accomplished His will. 5.27 Prophecy fulfilled The first world War of I9I4 came with a revelation in I9I7 to three Roman Catholic Nuns that the Holy Spirit will manifest in Africa. He has since taken His advent and is actively working. When the Roman Catholic Church heard the revelation from the nuns, they concealed it by the orders of the then Pope. But for how long can the truth be concealed? Like the mustard seed, He has germinated in Africa and all the countries in the world. The inhabitants of the world have seen Him. This explains the reason why the whites are rushing to Africa and many are tracing their roots to Nigeria. He is a quickening Spirit. 5.28 The end of vice He said in the scriptures that all those who seek to save their lives will lose it but all those who forsake their lives for the sake of the gospel shall gain it. All who continue to indulge in diabolism and initiation into secret societies shall be destroyed. What we are witnessing now is the manifestation of the dream of Nebuchadnezzar as interpreted by Prophet Daniel. He saw many kingdoms coming and going until a particular one that was to be resolute and strong subduing every other kingdom arrived. This dream is fulfilled in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. This is the kingdom established by the Father Himself. He has come now as the Holy Spirit, having been here before as the Father and the Son. The triune God is here with His heavenly hosts. He has come to put an end to prejudice of colour, language, economy, religion, politics and societal settings. That is the final prophecy .of Our Lord Jesus Christ, which has equally been fulfilled. This is the reason why He charged that we should go into the world, and make all nations to become His disciples, baptising them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, and teaching them all He had taught us, lo' He is with us always, even to the end of the world. See Matthew: 28: I9-20. “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Let us read the golden text again. Golden text: Matthew: 24: 33-43 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that day and hour knoweth no man no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the Goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.” 5.29 A reward for the righteous Beloved brethren, all those who are kind, loving, obedient, merciful, truthful, humble, faithful and righteous shall inherit the kingdom of God. But the disobedient and the faithless ones shall be damned. Remember the case of a certain widow in the Bible who attended a fund raising ceremony. While others donated in thousands, out of their generosity, she donated her widow's mite. That was all the money she had and with that action, she stood out from every other person because of her generosity, In that congregation were chiefs, kings, millionaires and great men but only the woman's donation attracted blessing from God to her. So would the so-called great men of this world, the scientists, the royal highness and all the disobedient and faithless people be destroyed and swept off. Only the children of God shall inherit the earth. It is said that a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise. Let he who has an ear, hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the world. May God bless His holy words. Amen. THANK YOU FATHER
