THE MYSTERY ABOUT THE TRINITY

First lesson: 1 John 5: 7-8 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, the Water and the Blood and these three agree in one. Second lesson: JOHN 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced His side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. Golden Text LUKE 23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, He said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. 35.1 God is within man. Beloved, I have to reveal to you a very important thing about the kingdom of God today. It is in fact, the mystery about the Trinity, God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I deem this revelation necessary so that none of you in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star will be ignorant of what and who God is. What I teach you in this kingdom cannot be taught in any other place, the world over. So many of you believe in God only when He raises the dead, makes the dumb to speak, the deaf to hear, the blind to see, the lame to walk, and the barren to be fruitful. But today, this gospel seeks to reveal who the living God is, so that wherever and whenever you are called upon, you can teach others the correct thing. Do not look for God in your bedroom, in the Atlantis, sun or in the moon, for he is not there. And do not forget that you have not seen him before. So even if he passes by you, you will not know him. This confirms the scripture at John chapter one verse ten that; “he was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew not”. But today, whether you like it or not, at the end of this gospel you will know him. Spiritual Chorus He has come in a hidden way; but the world still seeks for him. Do not look for God in any other place, for the kingdom of God is within you. It is nearer to you than the tongue is to the teeth. Upon the knowledge people acquire from the record ministry and university education, have they been taught of the special issues which I impart to you in this kingdom? There is no doctor, be it native, medical or academic, that has acquired this knowledge. 35.2 Trinity connotes oneness in perfect unity It is made clear by the first lesson that the three things that bear record of God in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are one. What I want you to realize is that though they are three, they are one Holy Trinity in heaven. They operate in total oneness and unity at all times and in all operations, even if for a certain operation, the manifestation of one may predominate in the purpose of that operation. Examples are: In the redemption and salvation of man when the manifestation of the Word of God, the Son of God, the Love of God predominates, or in the teaching of truth to mankind when the Holy Spirit, the Teacher predominates. But all three must be present and active for wholesome result. The Holy Spirit is the head of the Trinity. Also when in Genesis chapter one verse twenty six it is said, “let us make man in our own image, after our likeness…” I now ask you, how many likenesses has God on earth. It is the Spirit, the Water and the Blood that sustain you. They constitute the Trinity in man on earth. Should any of those three be missing you are gone. When you argue ignorantly that man is not God, what then is God? When a new baby is born, the first thing that will be given to him is water. This shows that the three things should be present at all times in man. Blood and Spirit are there already. When you see a very fat, slim, tall, short, dark or fair person, such is sustained by these three things, though in one component. When an anaemic patient is taken to the hospital, the doctors will examine him and prescribe blood infusion. When one is short of water in one's body, some pints of water to be dripped into the body will be prescribed. If the relatives of the patients are not financially strong to provide the needed blood and water in time, the patient may pass away. This will happen if the third component , the spirit is not in him. 35.3 The Spirit is the Father I call the medical doctors half baked because they know what to do if one is short of blood and or water, but they do not know anything about the spirit in man. As a result of this, if a patient, on reaching the hospital, is examined and the result shows that he is not short of blood or water, the doctor will say that his sickness has no medical bearing, and so, should be taken to a necromancer. The question however is, what has a necromancer got to do with the spirit which is lacking in the patient? The simple truth there is that, the spirit has departed from the person. The spirit is the Father, it is the spirit that supports and provides water and blood in man. The blood is from him and the water also is from him. That is why they are said to be three in one Trinity the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit as in heaven, and the spirit, water and blood as when God incarnates on earth. The Trinity is referred to as the Son of Man because of the blood in him. He is said to be the Son of God because of the water in him. He is equally said to be God because of the Holy Spirit in him. These three in one is the only power ruling the world and all existence. This is the Trinity in heaven or on earth as in man. 35. 4 The Importance of the Trinity The work done by water, blood and spirit are too marvelous but they act as an entity. This is why it is stated in John chapter three verse five, “… verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man is born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God”. Be informed that three quarters of the earth we are living is surrounded by water, beneath the sea, on the land, and even in the air, there is water. That is why, in everything we do, water is part and parcel of our life. But the surprising thing is that nobody knows where water, blood, or the spirit in man come from. There are three in one God, they constitute life. An earthly example to explain the Trinity is the car where there is water, engine oil and petrol. All these have different functions in the same car. Without any of them, the car will not operate. The automobile companies drew this wisdom from the three in one God. But the whites, because they are carnally minded, have not come to this full realization. Anyone who is in spirit will know that nobody can survive if he is short of any these three components of spirit, water and blood. It is written in John chapter one verse one. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God”. 35.5 The Word In heaven It is the Word in heaven that brings forth water; blood and the spirit in man and the three are one. The same principle is found here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, the holy water, the holy oil, and the word of God. These three also are one. The word is the Godhead. He is the Father. That is why you are always told that the spoken word is very efficacious. You only need to speak but a word and the blind will see, the lame walks, the deaf hears, the dumb speaks and every other thing that you ask will be done, only on the pronouncement of the word “Let”. Water is powerful because it is God. This explains the reason why one can survive with only water without food for a long time, but cannot survive with food without water. What, in the first place would he use in cooking? This is why it is instructed that whenever you pray for someone in your house, in the bethel or anywhere, you should sprinkle water. It is for purification. It is the water from Jesus Christ our Lord. It purifies. The holy oil is the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. It forgives sin. The word is God. It gives life. Our motto in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is love, faith, and hope and these are one. Here also, we have the word, the spirit, and the blood. The word is the producer of everything. If someone wants a child and the words, “go you have been given a child” are uttered; automatically the words become a child. The same thing applies in everything you want. It is from the word that we have water, and spirit in man. To those who seek for the word on the mountain top, in the abyss, in the Atlantis, in the moon, sun, stars, on land and in the air, the question is, are they sure it is there? Is it not always with you? The word is nearer to you than the cloth is on the body. You were made through the pronouncement of “Let”. Because you have been coming here to receive words directly from the Father, everything, the word, become a bullet proof to you. Hence, even if you are shot with a gun, nothing will happen to you; because the word of God has taken absolute dominion in you, and as such no evil can come near you. 35.6 The Father revealed as the Christ The gospel today is on how the Father is revealed as the Christ. And so if the three important components of his being as Christ are not mentioned, the story has not started. The word of God that you are joking with is the Father, the Creator of heaven and earth. He is within you. Why then are you troubled? Since you have known him as God, as the giver of blood, water, Holy Spirit, food, life and shelter, you have no problem. Some people are just suffering out of ignorance, searching for God in the abyss, Atlantis, heaven, or earth. Of what useful purpose do you think the leaves, roots, barks of trees and several incisions you make on the body do to you? Re-examine the first lesson below: First lesson: 1 John 5: 7 -8 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost, and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and Water, the Blood and these three agree in one” 35.7 The components of the Trinity The three components as mentioned in our first lesson are not operating differently or separately. They are three in one indivisible whole and Godhead. Hence, if a man is said to be God, he must be the Father, Son as well as the Holy Spirit otherwise the claim is incorrect, for these constitute the Trinity in this physical plane. But in the invisible world, He is known as the Word the Holy Spirit. And it is this Spirit that directs you on what to do, how to do it, and when it should be done. Have you seen how lucky you are? The blood and water which you attach no importances are given us free of charge. Do you know where the blood comes from or where it goes when one is said to be anaemic? Do you know where the water has it's source or where it empties itself? In man, there is an amount of water that can fill up to many liters. The same thing is true with blood. These components are God, hence, the power that surrounds them are better felt than imagined. The whites have been undertaking several researches to know what makes up the rest of man, but in every attempt, they fail. The physiology, anatomy and the rest of the scientific studies undergone by the whites are carnal. That is why they cannot succeed. Were they spiritually inclined, they would know that it is the water, blood, and spirit that make up man. Who was the one who came with water, blood, and Holy Spirit? Was it not our Lord Jesus Christ? That was to be the sign of his coming. Hence the scripture at John 1: 33 says “And I know him not but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me upon whom thou shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptized with the Holy Ghost” . He was the first Being on earth that the Holy Spirit also descended openly at baptism unto and he becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit on earth. This proves to you that without the three components mentioned here, water, blood and spirit, a man cannot exist on earth. 35.8 Eating of meat or fish kills the spirit in man The people of the world are blind and deaf as such, they cannot come to the realization that by eating fish and meat, the spirit in them is killed. Then if after knowing that the three components cannot function in isolation, you decide to kill the spirit, how do you think you can survive with only blood and water? Sin kills the spirit also. This is why the spirit in the man who sins is not active and the man cannot achieve anything spiritually. All his activities are canal and mundane. His spirit is dead. Read the second lesson again. Second lesson: John 19:34 “But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water”. 35.9 The work of the Trinity If our Lord Jesus Christ did not come in that form, with water, blood, and the spirit,(Holy Spirit) what then would he use in cleaning our iniquities? We are made to understand that the water from His body was for purification, the blood for forgiveness of sins, while the spirit provides the life we are living, even till date and forever. SPIRITUAL CHORUS: The blood that oozed out of the sides of Emmanuel, that blood has the power to forgive sins It is indeed the blood of Christ that forgives your sins. Asides from it, you would have perished. Because some of you, trying to help yourselves, go about committing fornication, stealing, tell lies, indulging in diabolism and other unwholesome things. But the blood and water that oozed out of Christ have washed you clean and have forgiven your numerous sins. Here in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star no matter, how serious a problem is, once the holy water which signifies water from Christ, the holy oil which stands for his blood and the word which is the Father are used, the problem stands solved instantly. There was a prophecy that none of his bone shall be broken, and that was why he surrendered his spirit into the hands of his Father before the soldiers went breaking the ankles of the other men crucified with Christ. On reaching him, he was already dead so they did not break his legs. Otherwise he would be a deformed Christ today. 35.10 Water is of immense importance There is so much power in water such that, if you take it as a point of duty to be drinking water first thing in the morning everyday, you will have no need whatsoever for any medical treatment. But because of your ignorance, you go about drinking death into your system, claiming to be taking blood tonic and other medicine. I am telling you authoritatively that a true Brotherhood of the Cross and Star child can donate blood for over a hundred persons without any problem and will still have enough, left for his body. But a worldly person who has taken to drinking, snuffing, eating of fish and meat will not have up to a pint of blood to spare. Our Lord Jesus Christ is not known only because he resurrected on the third day. He is also known through the water, blood and Holy Spirit He has for these constitute the Christ. Read the Golden text again. GOLDEN TEXT: LUKE 23: 46 “And when Jesus had cried with loud voices, he said, father, into thy hands I commend my spirit and having said thus, he gave up the ghost”. 35. 11 God in heaven, God on earth, are one When our Lord Jesus Christ was in heaven it was the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit that bore record and revealed the Trinity. And when he came to dwell with men on earth, they become the spirit, the water and the blood in him. And the three components reveal that the God in heaven and that on earth are one. It was as a result of this that when his side was pierced, water and blood poured out. At that point; he committed his spirit onto the Father. This therefore reveals that the water, blood together with the spirit make the Christ, the almighty God. And up till now, he is still doing wonderful works, the world over. 35.12 Be born of Water and Spirit You cannot know God in any form apart from these three in one components, spirit, blood, and water. How many people in this world are born of spirit and water as instructed by our Lord Jesus Christ, so as to inherit the kingdom of God? This is why baptism is very important in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star; because once you emerge from the water, you are made a new creature in Christ Jesus. You are washed clean and blessed with the gift of the Holy Spirit. In this way, love, power and every other virtue will be complete in you. And from then, you will feel the fountain of the living water flowing in you. 35.13 Pray at all time It is to this end that you are made to understand that prayer is the key to everything. While eating, playing in your house, office, or any where you find yourself, you are free to pray. Remember what happened when Christ was in the boat with his disciples. He feigned sleeping and when the storm was serious, his disciples woke him up. If they did not wake him up, would he not continue his sleep? So whenever you have any problem, just speak but a word and all will be well. Even our Lord Jesus Christ, if he did not say, “Father into thy hand I commend my spirit”. God would not have taken his life and those soldiers would have met him alive and his bones would have been broken. So, you are this day, authorized to request with the power of the spoken word, whatever you want and same will be granted you. When you are going out, speak that the Father should be in front and behind you and same will he do. Acknowledge God in everything you do, to protect you till you wake up. This is a mystery that no one has known. This is why some people say that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not worshipping the true God while some say, it is indeed, a kingdom of God. 35.14 Be of service to others Once a woman died in labour for refusing to confess her sins. So in the course of your evangelism, if you meet one at the verge of death, confess on the person's behalf, for we are all one, and pray over him. Definitely, the spirit will return to him and he will be alive again. Our Lord Jesus Christ, without mincing words in John chapter fifteen sixteen, and seventeen says that “If ye love me keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever, even the spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive because it seeth him not neither knowth him but ye know for he dwelleth with you and shall be in you” Christ made this statement out of the love he has for us. It is for this reason that Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, even if you meet somebody in a condition which the worldly people regard as terrible, you will not fear because you know that water and prayer will solve that person's problems. The word is the blood, water, God, life and everything. That is why you are warned not to say woe betide anybody but to bless at all times. There is power in the spoken word. Because the people of the world do not know anything about blood, water and spirit, they take a sick person to the juju priest or such people of the world, oblivious of the fact that his spirit will even be killed there in the midst of evil and sin in the shrine. There is no leaf that can restore one back to life except the word of God. Do not sin again, do not say evil words against another so that you may remain clean so that at any time you request anything from God, it may be granted you. The word is our weapon in this kingdom. Beloved, it is said that a stroke of cane is enough for the wise. He, who has ears, let him hear what the Holy Spirit has imparted to the entire world. May God bless his holy words Amen. THANK YOU FATHER
