    THE NEW NAME OF GOD

    First lesson: Matthew: 12:21 “And in His name shall the Gentiles trust” Golden text: 1 John: 3:3 “And every man that hath this hope in him purified himself, even as he is pure.” 9.1 The hope of the Gentiles It is a whole truth that all the weapons of war present here in the kingdom are not that of the flesh (carnal). The songs that you render here are some of the spiritual weapons and the prayers are also wonderful weapons of war. The testimonies people give are still wonderful weapons of this spiritual war. It is made known that, the gospel of God is the spiritual cutlass used in shaping all things, and this is one of such gospels. A lot of people do not really know why they are enjoined to flee fornication, falsehood, idolatry and other vices, and the need for them to embrace love, peace, mercy and other virtues. And a good number of people do not know the reason why they are plagued with series of problems. John I6:24 has it that: “Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.” In spite of these assurances however, calling on Jesus all day long, avails you nothing and offering prayers in His name avails you nothing. In as much as you are yet to fulfil the conditions of today's scripture, your efforts are wasted. It is clearly mentioned in the first lesson that, "The Gentiles will have hope in His name." Who do you think are the Gentiles? The Gentiles are the entire people of the world. Whoever hopes in God is bound to live a problem-free life. Hope is abstract, so also is faith. But, anyone who hopes and has faith in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ is bound to be answered at any time he or she calls on Him. There is nothing one cannot achieve, if he or she hopes in the name of God. In fact, there is nothing impossible to anyone who hopes in God's name. Even though you are in abyss, grave, water or any place, He would still answer your calls, so long as you have hope in His name. Hoping in God does not entail seeing Him physically. This prompted our Lord Jesus Christ to say: “Thomas because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.” (John: 20:29). The only thing that saves mankind is for him to hope in God's name, as the scripture enjoins. Seeking for Jesus to place His hands on your head does not mean anything; rather it is your hope in Him that matters. We are made to understand that, the Gentiles will hope in His name. This then means that His name is weapon, beauty, salvation, power, strength and wisdom. It also means that, as long as we have hope in His name, we are saved. In fact, it was the hope, which His disciples had in the name of Jesus the Christ that made them to succeed in all their endeavours. But the question now is, how many people in the entire world hope in this name? If one hopes in His name, he will not transport himself from Lagos or London to Calabar, for the purpose of seeing the Father physically. This is because whoever hopes in His name, is saved, irrespective of his place of abode. Whoever hopes in Him will always have his prayers answered. The songs you render, the fasting you undertake, the prayers you offer among others, do not cast away any of your problems. The only thing that renders effectual remedies to our problems is hope. Thus, when the word, "Let" is used, it becomes effective when it is accompanied with hope. The idea of singing spiritual songs before healing is childish, and in fact ridiculous. The scripture has never indicated that the disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ ever sang before carrying out any miracle. They knew very well that whoever hopes in God's name can never be disappointed. And since they really believed and hoped in God, they had no cause to fear. And so whenever they called on the great name of Jesus the Christ, they were always glad at the result. 9.2 The most exalted Name This name is the greatest amongst all other names. This name is so exalted that, all other creatures must bow down for Him. This is the reason why Jesus Christ is the only shepherd taking control of all the sheep (the inhabitants of the entire world). The said name is the shortest way of performing any spiritual work. Whoever hopes in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ is saved. Even though such a person was at the point of death, he is bound to survive, so long as he has hope in His name. The said name is that which gives life eternal. This name also is the one that is capable of raising the dead. It is through this particular name that we are changed. Through this name, everything is made available and possible. In fact, the said name is the armour of war to all those who hope in Him. Whoever does not hope in this name cannot do any tangible thing but the reverse is the case for those who hope in the name of Jesus the Christ. Whoever hopes in the name of Christ has no need to apply holy oil or water on a patient before he is healed. Anyone who hopes in His name has no need to offer lengthy prayer before a patient is healed. This is because, immediately he says, “Let", the patient is healed. Anyone who hopes in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ has every right and ability to call on Him to stop a war, and it manifests immediately. Therefore brethren, there is nothing impossible for those who have hope in His name. Recall what happened to the lame man who was always sitting at the beautiful gate at Jerusalem. One day, Peter and John were going to the temple for prayers, they came across the said lame man at the Beautiful Gate. And this lame man, on seeing them, requested for some (alms) money. Then Peter in reply said: “Silver and gold have I none: but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.” (Acts: 3:6). After this statement, Peter took him by the right hand and raised him up, and immediately, his feet and ankles were made strong. Peter easily accomplished this task, because he had hope in the name of Jesus Christ. Moreover, the lame man also hoped in the name. This proves that hoping in His name means success. The name of Jesus the Christ is very dynamic and powerful such that once a ghost, mermaid, juju, etc, hears it, it prostrates. The angels too, always prostrate whenever the name is mentioned. But the most important aspect is that, all the Gentiles should also hope in this name that is to be revealed to the world. Thus, it is imperative that, all those who love God should have hope in Him, so that they would be saved. Therefore, stop seeking for visioners, health workers, ordained ones etc, to put their hands on your head and pray, for once you hope in Christ's name, you have no cause to consult people for help. You have been enjoined not to hope in anything visible, but in that which is invisible. This is because; all the visible things will pass away. The name of our Lord Jesus Christ is invisible; therefore it is expedient that your hope is in the said name. This name is very significant and can never be out of use. Even though you do not call on Him or hope in God, have you not seen His glory manifesting in you? Without the name of Christ, nothing works out well. Therefore, it is imperative that you call on His name before you embark on any venture. This name is a saviour to those that hope in it. 9.3 The Name that wroughts miracles In the present generation, there is no one who has seen our Lord Jesus Christ physically. In spite of this however, there is no part of the world, where His name is not heard. When people pray for the material things of this world, it then depicts that, they are of the flesh. Such requests are insignificant because, the greatest of all things, is the name of Christ. If the name is not the greatest of all things, why then should people exalt Jesus the Christ after His death than while He was still living? This is so because, once we call on His name, miracles happen. But the question is, why do other people who still call on the name of Christ not witness miracles like others? The reason is that, they do not hope in the name. And why do they not hope in this name? This is because, they do not believe in Him. They rather believe that, Jesus had died. Therefore, His name cannot be effective to the group of people who have this thought It is said, "For as the body -without the spirit is dead, so faith without -works is dead also". (James 2:26). Similarly, the belief, which is not associated with work, can never bear fruit. Now you claim that you have hope in the name of Christ yet, you are still plunged in sinfulness. Does this show that you really have hope in His name? Take your mind back to the scripture at 1st John 3:3.(And every man that hath this hope in him purified himself, even as he is pure). The paramount thing is for one to purify his or herself, so that, he or she would be worthy before God. That is the more reason why I spend much time instructing you to try all your best and purge yourself from all manner of sinfulness. This is because, the name of Jesus the Christ is found very active by those who have purified themselves by forsaking all forms of sinfulness. It is not any other thing or creature that performs the work in this kingdom. Rather, it is the name of our Lord Jesus Christ that works out miracles. That is the reason why, whenever you call on the name, the entire world shakes. And those who want the name to be active need to purify themselves. Whoever is defiled does not hope in the name of Jesus Christ. As such, the Father has enjoined that man should shun sinfulness and embrace righteousness. And, it is imperative that, you abide by the above injunction so that you may be worthy to call on the name. Most people in this kingdom do not call on the Father with respect, because they do not regard Him as being important. But if we were to regard Him as anything, we would have been calling on Him with due respect- Does it depict respect when an insulting fellow hopes in His name? There is a spiritual song which has it that. "Man should be as pure as God is, for no evil can dwell with Him". Truly, God is pure and so, whoever hopes for salvation should get himself purified. We are told that, what was done to the Israelites would also be done to the Gentiles. It is also said that our Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. There is nothing but the said name that could be used to salvage the entire world. Right now, if this name indwells in us, and we hope in it, then we are free and saved. And if we were to hope in the said name, we would automatically purge ourselves from all evils and love one another. Owing to the fact that, none of us has hope in the name of Christ, we therefore believe that the power existing in this kingdom emanates from Biakpan water, holy oil, red oil etc. If you were to have hope in this name, you would have purified yourself. And if you have purified yourself, you would have been free from all sicknesses and problems. Read Matthew 2I:42 “Jesus said unto them. Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?” Sequel to this Biblical excerpt, it should be realised that, the name which the world has rejected, has become the greatest of all names. It is a name that performs miracles. And should you hope in this name, you would then have no problem. 9.4 What is the new Name of God? What does a man lose if he loves, hopes in God; purges himself from all vices and embraces the truth and other virtues? Our Lord Jesus Christ said: “Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and will write upon him my new name.” (Revelation 3:I2) From the above Biblical excerpt, does the new name in question refer to Christ, Messiah, Lord, God, Jehovah etc? We are told that. He has come with a new name, which the world knows not, except Him. And it is He alone who knows the things that will happen in the future. Recall the scripture at Revelation 7: I-4. "And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth. holding the four winds of the earth, that the -wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea. “Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.” It should be noted that the one hundred and forty-four thousand (I44,000) people that will be sealed are the children of God. These are the people that will be saved. In fact, they have no problem whatsoever. They are also whom every creature here on earth will bow down to. Really, the said people have no need to pray, because, with the hope, which they have in God's name, everything is bound to work out well for them. The question now is, how many people do rejoice in His new name and have hope in Him? If we were to rejoice in Him and also hope in His new name, we should have celebrated a very grand festival. In fact, such a festival would be celebrated at all times. But since we do not rejoice in Him and also have hope in His new name, there is no celebration whatsoever. In the same vein, it is as a result of the fact that, we do not have hope in Him, that we cannot purify ourselves. Revelation: 22: 4-5. states, “And they shall see his face: and his name shall be in their foreheads And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign forever and ever.” In spite of this promise, no one is ready to purge himself/herself from all manner of sinfulness. And no one reverences God but the inscription (His new name) on your forehead wroughts wonders. It is said: “In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.“(Rev. 22: 2) The above excerpt makes it known that the leaves of the tree would be used for the healing of the nations. What then do you think is in the leaves of the tree referred to? It is the new name of God. It is only the said name that performs all works. But do you believe, hope and have faith in the said name? In the same vein, do you rejoice in Him and abide by His pieces of advice? If you were to rejoice and hope in Him, you would not have been bothered about anything. This is because; anyone who hopes in His new name is saved and is problems-free. It is this new name of God that makes people to be afraid when they see members of this kingdom in their attire (Soutane); not to talk of seeing the inscription, O.O.O. written on their door posts. The new name is so wonderful and active that, any house or property that has the inscription on it, is saved and secured. 9.5 The wonderful name In Benin City, for instance, there was a trader who wrote the inscription, O.O.O. on the doorpost of his shop in the main market. And when the market caught fire, every other shop was burnt down, except the one with the inscription of the new name of God. Everybody expected the fire to burn down the shop with the inscription, but to no avail. And now, this particular shop is the only surviving shop in the market. This is what a name can do. Not long ago, there was a fire outbreak at Utan Brama, All the churches, houses and people's personal effects worth thousands of Naira in the fishing settlement were gutted by fire with the exception of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star bethel there. It was the only building spared by the inferno. And one of the children of God prophesied that he saw the entire world gutted by fire. But the only survivors were the members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and the buildings spared were those that belong to them. All other things in the fishing port were destroyed. He added that it was only those identified as members of this kingdom that were found to be righteous and they were without blemish. What does this signify? It is a clear indication that it is only those who call on the name, "O.O.O that will be saved. There is no other name, which can bring salvation to man except this wonderful name. The Father is pure and those who have hope in Him must, of necessity, be as pure as He is. Purify yourself so that you can inherit this kingdom. You are looking for visioners for vision, Christ's Servants, Biakpan water, holy oil, among others as if the great works of this kingdom are done by these names. Have you now realised that the rejected stone has now become the chief corner stone? That name which nobody wants to hear: the name you despise, toy with and reject outright, is now the only way out for man's salvation. However, fornicators, murderers, idolaters, adulterers, dupers, liars, troublemakers etc do not know the name. This is so because, this set of people do not believe and do not have faith in this wonderful name. What is man that God should handover the ruler ship and glory of the entire world to? Think on what would have become of the world if God had given man the power and absolute control of the world. It is a truism to say that songs, prayers, dances, preachment of this kingdom are prophecies. They are meant to reveal the new name of God. If you believe in this name and hope in it, you are protected. And you would not have any course to worry about. The protection you derive from hoping in this name cannot be over- emphasized. Beside you will be bestowed with your heart's desires and you will live a problem-free life. A few years ago in Italy, a Brotherhood of the Cross and Star member, a student, was travelling in a taxi car and the driver lost control of the steering. And the car swerved off the road. When all hope for surviving was gone, in a desperate attempt, this brother shouted on that great name: "Olumba, Olumba Obu, help me." According to this brother, immediately he called on this great name, the Father came to their rescue. Brother (Pastor) Essah also testified to this fact. With this, the efficacy of this name cannot be over- emphasized. Let us read our first lesson. First lesson: Matthew: I2:2I “And in His name shall the Gentiles trust”. 9.6 The name gives salvation Does the Bible mention that name? Is the name Jesus, Christ, Lord Jehovah, or Messiah? It was said that the Gentiles will trust in His name and that people will have salvation through this name. Suppose you are in problem and you call on Jesus, Jehovah, Messiah, Moses, Christ, Angel and Elijah, yet your problems persist, and it happens that you call on a certain name which solves your problems, will you not have faith in such a name? Since the Bible did not mention a particular name, it will not be out of place for you to believe that it is the name, which the bible referred to. This is a logical argument. There was a brother whose property was destroyed by fire in Calabar when he was away from his home. On his arrival, he was confused at the incident and decided to know the force behind that arson. At the back of his mind, he suspected the Holy Father as the cause of his misfortune. He then wrote to many parts of the world including India, alleging that the Holy Father was responsible for that incident. The people wrote back to him, warning him to desist from blaspheming against the name of the Holy Father. He was not satisfied and so, went to Ika Annang, in Etim Ekpo Local Government area of Akwa Ibom State to inquire from a very popular soothsayer (a woman). On arrival, the woman asked him to tell her his mission; He did. The woman picked up her mirror and carried out her divination. As she was conjuring, behold, a flame-like object appeared on the mirror. Within a short while, it metamorphosed into the Holy Father in a red soutane. The woman was perplexed at the sight of the Father. She shouted on the man that he has brought the Holy Father to destroy her juju. The entire worlds have researched into this name but till today, nobody has come up with reliable information about it. It is very common to see people flock into a particular healing home where a professed good visioner stays. This shows the foolishness of man. Does that visioner not call on this name? Why have you not called on the same name? If you visit the inner shrine of the juju priests and herbalists, the first thing you will see there is the inscription O.O.O. This is so because, they have realised that the name is an embodiment of power. And above all, they know that juju does not have power and so they rely on this name for their all round protection. This goes to confirm the prophecy that, all the Gentiles trust in this name for their salvation. 9.7 Faith without work is meaningless Some years ago, there was a Registrar in the former school of Basic Studies, Akamkpa who had a farm in the school premises. When he was clearing the bush, his colleagues told him that, the land he was about to cultivate had never been cultivated successfully because, thieves and animals would not allow the crops to grow. But, this man strongly believed in the Father's name. He knew that the name will protect his farm from insects, animals and thieves. After planting his crops, he fenced round the farm. On the fence, he wrote O.O.O. Throughout the year, nothing happened to the crops; thieves, rodents, insects and even disease did not affect the crops in the farm. The farm yielded bountifully that year so much so that whatsoever knew the history of the land began to call him a witch. Because he trusted in the name O.O.O. it worked for him. Do you have such wisdom? Instead of trusting in this name, you rather rely on human beings, herbs and orthodox medicine, thereby glorifying things which are immaterial and do not exist. Do you know that it was said that, it is in this name that the Gentiles must trust? You have this name inscribed in your houses, property and on you. No doubt, the angels have given you this mark. It is the sign of salvation. If you have the inscription of this name on you, no ill can ever come on you. The name has already been inscribed on you. On your own making, you would not have had trust in this name but for the fact that it was said that the Gentiles would trust on it. Although it was recorded that the Gentiles will have salvation from the name because of their trust, the fact is that faith without work is meaningless. It is on this note that you have been told to purify yourselves. You have to forsake sinful acts, knowing too well that the name does not accommodate unwholesome acts. If you have this name and trust in it, the truth is that, you have what is greater than the whole world. As such, there is no need for you to have a gun, hatchet, security men, dogs, or charms, for protection. The name is there to protect you if only you will keep. His words and abide by His injunctions. Purify yourself and refrain from all manner of sins. This is how you will see the manifestation of his glory, power and protection in this new name. 9.8 The Name, O.O.O A trip to Mecca will prove a point to you. On that black stone which the Moslems worship, the inscription O.O.O. is clearly written there in Spirit. And on their forehead is also written O.O.O., which they are not aware of. Yet they worship and bow down to the stone. The name O.O.O. is written in the air. It is the healing force of all sickness and the only source of solution to man's problems. If you have a cup or basin of water and make the inscription of O.O.O on it, if the water is given to a sick person to drink, he or she will become well, no matter the intensity of his sickness. It is the name that gives solution to all problems. All you need do is to purify yourself and believe in the name. It is the only name that is capable of raising the dead. It is the name that rules in all the planes of manifest. Anybody who believes in this name must purify himself or herself. And if anyone refuses to purify himself, it implies that he or she does not trust in that name. And except you purify yourself, the name will not be of any use to you and it cannot give you salvation. Above all, you cannot perform great works. Recall when God passed through Paul to do special miracles, such that his handkerchief or apron was used in curing diseases and in casting out evil spirits from people. On seeing this, the Jews, prominent amongst them, a chief of the priests, called on those who had evil spirits and said to the spirits; "we adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preached". To their greatest surprise, the evil spirit answered and said to them: "Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but -who are you?. The man in -whom the evil spirit was, leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of the house naked and wounded" (Acts 19: 11-16). 9.9 Righteousness and purity are needed The same thing repeats itself in this generation; but the hallmark is that one has to refrain from sinful acts or else, he will not be known, feared and obeyed by any power. This is so because, he does not believe, trust and have faith in God and His new name. This is the reason why I am imploring you to refrain from sin, and eating of meat and fish. I am warning you against defiling yourself. I do not want people to cause the children of God to deviate from my teachings so that wherever they go, they may be recognised and obeyed and their pronouncements can have great impact. Without purity, this cannot be achieved. If you are pure, the name will be inscribed on you and He will abide in you and no spirit will disobey you. There is no power in man or in anything whatsoever. This wonderful name is a propelling force, which is used to accomplish great works. In undertaking any work, you need not pray, fast, or do anything because it is the name that does the work. The efficacy of the name cannot be over- emphasized. If I stand out here to recount what that name has done on earth, the list is inexhaustible. There is a compound here in Calabar where people dreaded living in. The story was that, the landlady of the compound was a very dangerous woman. That she normally metamorphosed into big rats to disturb her tenants. On hearing this, one sister a Brotherhood of the Cross and Star member decided to go and live there. Based on the story she heard about the havoc, which the landlady had caused her previous tenants, the sister went to the market and bought white chalk. She wrote O.O.O. on all the walls of the rooms and on all her belongings. One day, the landlady turned into a big rat as usual and headed to this sister's room to commit her usual havoc but on reaching there, the inscriptions, O.O.O. on the walls of the sister's room over-powered the big rat and it fell down from the roof and became unconscious. Just at this moment the landlady fell sick. She could not talk, became indisposed and was unconscious. When the relations discovered that this sister was responsible for her state of health, she was asked to pack out of the house. She was even told not to pay her rent for that month. If you make use of this name, Olumba Olumba Obu or the symbol O.O.O., people will dread you and run away from any place you go to. You do not need to do anything other than writing this name wherever the goings get tough and all will be well. It is rather saddening to see that you have something more than the world; yet, you still search for vain things. 9.10 The new name of power arrives During the First World War of I9I4, guns, machetes and such crude and commonplace weapons were used. But during the Second World War of I939- I945, more sophisticated weapons like atomic bombs as well as jet fighters, hand grenade and automatic rifles were used. Today, much more sophisticated weapons have been manufactured such as missiles, bombs, and chemical weapons that can be used to destroy a whole country in a matter of seconds. If man could be so knowledgeable to keep on improving on his performance, what then would God do? God has no rival and His wisdom is infinite. All those who trust and believe in God have been given power to triumph over all odds. The only proof to show that we trust in Him is for us to purify ourselves. If man should develop himself to a remarkable extent, what then should God do? Today, O.O.O. has physically appeared to many people in different parts of the world and at different times. 9.11 The hidden truth The symbol, O.O.O. is nothing other than God's weapon of war. All the children of God have this symbol on them. And with the inscription, no evil one goes near them. The protection of mankind is contingent on this name. Prayers, fasting, ministry work and all the things you claim to be doing for your salvation do not fetch you anything, other than this wonderful name. It is O.O.O. that is protecting you. You only need to trust in this name and purify yourself and all will ever be well with you. Above all, you will remain protected for eternity. The good things of life will be bestowed on you if you believe in the name, Olumba Olumba Obu. This is simple and hidden truth about this name, and His symbol O.O.O. If those who claim to have acquired diabolical powers are proud of that, how much more those of you with the power of the Holy Spirit? The whole world has felt the impact of the wonderful name of God revealed. For all this time, you have been calling on the names of angels and various other things without any positive effect. Whatever is shut by this wonderful name cannot be opened and whatever is opened cannot be shut. There is no other source of help apart from this name. The name provides protection and guides in everything you embark on. Indeed, it is everything you need. It is for this reason that I have enjoined you to purify yourself in order that you may realise the efficacy of this name. The waters, trees, beast of the field, birds of the air, fishes in the water, and indeed His entire creation are inscribed with this wonderful name. In the United Kingdom, at Prince Charles cornfield, it has been confirmed that the wonderful name (O.O.O.) appeared boldly written in a part of the farm. Some scientists were invited to interpret the meaning. As they moved to take a closer look at the scene, it becomes obvious that it was getting farther and farther. It was on this note that the government of United Kingdom took much interest. The government placed a fat sum of money as compensation for whoever would provide the true meaning of the inscription. But no one came up with anything. Let the golden text be read once again. Golden text: 1 John: 3:3 “And every man that hath this hope in him purified himself, even as he is pure.” 9.12 The hope of the Gentiles In the whole world, who is the person that has hope in the name, apart from members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is the kingdom of God. It is only here in the kingdom that the word of God is practicalised. You should refrain from sins, and work uprightly. Do not bear malice against anybody. Let your hope be fixed in this name. Preach to the people of the world that there is only one name that can save the whole world. It was written that the Gentiles would hope in this very name. Therefore, all those who hope in this name should abstain from sins. This is the only way through which the glory of God will be made manifest. Nobody can go to the market naked in order to buy a new dress to cover his nakedness. It is expedient that you go to the market even in your rags and tatters to get new ones. You have been given new clothes now. The new name of God is your new cloth. Wear it from now on. Testimony(1) At Ugep in Cross River State, a lady who was a member of the Roman Catholic Church but now is in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, testified that she actually tested the efficacy of it. She said whenever she ran into difficulty, she would call on the name of Christ with a positive result and in some other time, when she had a very serious problem, she would call on the name of Olumba Olumba Obu with instant and dramatic result. This is an indication that both our Lord Jesus Christ and Leader Olumba Olumba Obu are one personality at work. Therefore, there is no difference between the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and that of Olumba Olumba Obu, provided you call on any of these names with faith. In another instance, some other person testified that he was chased in the dream and he called on the name of Jesus Christ yet, he was almost caught but when he pronounced the name of Olumba Olumba Obu, everything was calm instantly. It was after this horrible experience that he decided to stick to this wonderful name. Therefore, it is always good to test everything like it is rightly said that the test of the pudding is in the eating. How can you talk of the palatability of the food you cook without eating it? Therefore; it is not my place to ask you to stick to a particular name. You should try both names and whichever works for you, hold fast to it. The name of our Lord Jesus Christ is pure and so, if you purify yourself and call on this name, you are bound to receive solace. However, if you are not pure, the name means nothing. If you indulge in fornication, stealing, fighting, telling of lies, bearing malice among other vices, the name will not be powerful at all. In short, it will be useless. 9.13 The Holy Father's telephone number Now is the time to worship God in spirit and in truth. There is no need to go to Jerusalem or Mecca or to the mountain or to 34 Ambo Street, Calabar or Bethel or Church or any secret society in order to worship God. Do not ask any prophet or priest or pastor or anyone to pray for you. Freedom, liberty and all spiritual entitlement are now given to everyone to ask the Father directly for whatever the person wants in the name of the Leader Olumba Olumba Obu and that request shall be granted by God. This is the new covenant of the Father at this fullness of time. The promise is now consummated. It is given to everyone in this new kingdom of God. Anywhere you are, just kneel down, knock your head three times on the ground, confess your sins, and ask the Father for whatever you want in the name of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu after you have thanked God in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Even if you are necromancer, whoever you are, do as I have told you, and dial up to God your Father, and your prayer will be answered by Him. I give this key to all. It is not restricted to a few, but given to all who believe and call on this new name of God. Knock your head three times on the ground. Repeat; ”Let thanks, praises and glory be to God in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let thanks, praises and glory be to God in the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let thanks, praises and glory be to God now and forever more. Amen. Now confess your sins to God and thank Him. Then make your request direct to God for you are on the direct line to Him now. When you finish with your request, repeat again: “Let thanks, praises and glory be to God in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let thanks, praises and glory be to God in the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let thanks, praises and glory be to God now and forever more. Amen”. Knock your head three times on the ground again and say, “Thank you Father.” You now know how to dial directly unto God your Father and pray and make your request in the name of Leader Olumba Olumba Obu through our Lord Jesus. 9.14 The mighty name of God: O.O.O. The surest way to get whatever you want from God is by calling on this new name. Whatever situation you find yourself, whether you are faced with sickness, court case, persecution or poverty, call on this wonderful name, for you will surely get positive and instant result. Freedom from all problems is derived from this very name. It does not need fasting, long prayer or prolonged preaching. The truth is that, once you trust in this name by purifying yourself, your way is wide open. The Father had already revealed this name to the whole world. It shall come to pass that all those who put their trust in this name will set aside a particular day yearly to celebrate a feast in recognition of this name. Right now you should free your thought and trust from bethel, man, holy oil, holy water or vision. You should try your best to purify yourself and trust solely in this name. If you start right now to practice this divine instruction, you are bound to witness a dramatic turn of events in your life. You will only be hearing of hardship, sickness, problems, tribulation, gnashing of teeth, and death but none will affect you. This name has been revealed to sister J. M. Etop. 9.15 The end of time foretold I want you to realise that the year 2,000 marks the end of this generation. From the year 2,000, there will be no other name both in heaven and on earth that reigns except this wonderful new name of God. Many visioners have also testified to the manifestation of this truth. It is therefore, advisable that before the said period, all those who have hope in Him should purify themselves just as He is pure. As it is written: “And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” (Revelation: I9:I6). Therefore, do not give glory to water; trees, man, or any other things apart from God. If Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is made mention in the world, not very many people will know it. But as soon as O.O.O. is mentioned, everybody will easily know what you are talking about. The name is known both in heaven and on earth. Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is known by the world as O.O.O. Church. Is there any place in the world, where the impact of O.O.O. is not felt? Testimonies (2) Like the testimony given by Brother Francis in Cameroon. He said that there is a certain man there who does not want to hear about the name Olumba Olumba Obu. When they visited him, he inquired to know whether they were members of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, and disclosed that he welcomes Brotherhood but for that name, Olumba Olumba Obu he does not want to hear it. When they confirmed that they were Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, he decided to donate a parcel of land to them. Can you see how God has blinded Him? Have you not heard that whatever is so palatable in the mouth of a dying man is what he takes before he finally dies? The name OIumba Olumba Obu is the thing that works marvellously throughout the world. It is what wages this spiritual war. Whenever and wherever it is called, upon something is sure to happen. If you come across someone who resists the name, do not trouble him for he is ignorant of what is going on. It is God alone that knows the extent and severity of the war waged against the world. He alone knows the foundation of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and also gathers His children from all over the world to Himself. A one-time member of Guru Marahaji's Church, who is now Christ's Servant by the name Peter, once testified that there was once Guru himself wanted to initiate his new members. In order to take the necessary steps, he had to mention several names to be their masters. Names upon names were called and lastly he mentioned Olumba Olumba Obu as the master of masters. As soon as this name was pronounced by Guru, there was a thunderous sound that threw the whole gathering into stampede. They all ran helter-skelter. The brother further said that, this led to his coming into Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. Therefore, you should not prevent the people of the world from calling on this name because the more they call on Him, the more dramatic the situation in the world. Let us read the golden text once again. Golden text: 1 John: 3:3 “And every man that hath this hope in him purified himself, even as he is pure.” 9.16 Self- purification: a condition for salvation The only assignment for the members of the entire Brotherhood of the Cross and Star world is for them to purify themselves. In this new world, there is no other source of hope apart from this name. It is a laid down principle that the Gentiles will hope in His name. Invariably, you all are Gentiles and fit unto this group (the Gentiles). It is a must for you to be pure. You should love one another, speak the truth, humble yourself and flee from all manner of sins. This does not require money or any material thing at all. John the Baptist taught us sanctity and celibacy, but our Lord Jesus Christ taught us the love of one another in line with this, it is written: “Verily I say unto you. Among them that are born of woman there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.” ( Matthew: 11:11). The teachings of these two personalities have set the entire world free. This purification message also has to do with baptism because you have to confess your sins and repent before being baptised. Like the testimony given by Brother Etukat that, some Brotherhood of the Cross and Star members connived and seized his parcel of land from him. He said that they even threatened to arrest him through a paid police officer. Such a story is very strange here. All those who indulge in this type of act (struggling for land) are not Brotherhood members. If you are one of such people, it means that you are not ready at all to partake in the glory of God and you do not have hope in this name and do not know anything about this kingdom. Whether you are a virgin, eunuch, or whatever without self-purification, it means you do not have hope in this name. Whoever has hope in Him should purify himself even as he is pure. Whenever God speaks, His word breaks mighty rocks and rises up to accomplish His divine will. In the same token, the words I speak are power and truth, which you do not understand. But today, the Father has revealed this mystery for you. This name is holy and the power of God is salvation and everything you can think of. Whoever commits sin has no hope in the new name of God. If you come across a member of Brotherhood of the Cross and Star who has refrained from eating of meat and fish and also freed himself from all manner of sins, fear Him for he has gone far. But when you come across somebody who calls himself a Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, but indulges in all manner of sins you can afford to deal with him in any way that pleases you because he is empty. You should recall what the Samaritan woman said to our Lord Jesus Christ as recorded in, John: 4:20. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. Truly, it is only in Brotherhood and a handful of people in the world know what they worship. That is the reason why the scripture advises that, since we know what we worship, we should purify ourselves even as He is pure. 9.17 The need for vegetarianism John the Baptist was a vegetarian. He ate only locust beans and honey. Throughout his ministry, he did not suffer from any illness. Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us to love one another and John the Baptist introduced the lesson on sanctification. If you can practice these two lessons of sanctification and love, it means you have graduated in the school of practical Christianity. Proper food habit as taught by God is necessary. Vegetarianism is that food habit. Money is not required in doing this. Should you try or attempt and follow the teachings, you will witness the glory of God. A brother from Ghana testified that, he was in a vehicle with a policeman on their way to a certain town. The other passengers in the vehicle joined in the conversation, and spoke against the name of the Holy Father, Leader Olumba OIumba Obu. The policeman urged them not to murmur against the Father, for this is a man whom everything, including the angels, adore. Do you know this, those of you who are members, that everything in heaven and on earth all bow down and worship the Father? 9.18 The new Name of God Leader Olumba Olumba Obu The new name of God is the weapon of war, which the children of God use. And while using this name, you cannot make profanities, fight, quarrel or get exasperated. This new name, which is the weapon of war, is used to liberate the world; and with this name, death, angels, wind, man and all the creation of God are subjected unto God. Brother Henshaw had testified that a certain man lived in water for so long a time that, he was unable to come out to adapt to live in the physical world. But immediately the name of the Father was called upon, this brother emerged from the sea. This is one in the series of cases, which this wonderful name is used to work miracles. At first, people toyed with this name and it has pleased the Holy Father to reveal it to the world through this revealing gospel. It is said a stroke of the cane is sufficient unto the wise. May God bless His holy words. Amen. THANK YOU FATHER
