Home The Father's addresses HOLY FATHER'S GOODWILL MESSAGE TO THE ENTIRE WORLD TO MARK THE UNIVERSAL CELEBRATION OF THE SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD

HOLY FATHER'S GOODWILL MESSAGE TO THE ENTIRE WORLD TO MARK THE UNIVERSAL CELEBRATION OF THE SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD HOLDING AT THE BCS-WHQS, CALABAR, FRIDAY 6TH - SATURDAY 7TH APRIL 2007

Distinguished Children of God,
Peace profound; peace profound; peace profound and grace from the Cross be with you and the entire Creation in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

It is with a heart filled with unreserved gratitude to The Almighty Father whose unwavering love and mercy for humanity as evidenced through the manifestation of His Kingdom long foretold that I welcome you to this divine event - tagged "The Universal Celebration of The Seal of The Living God 2007”.

I am indeed thankful to Him for leading you all safely from your respective places of domicile, worlds and dominions to the Universal HQs of the BCS here in Calabar.

Over 2000 years ago, our Lord Jesus The Christ made the supreme sacrifice to enable man regain his sonship position before The Holy Father. His priceless blood splashed upon the Earth initiated man's cleansing from his unrighteousness. With His blood He laid an eternal foundation upon which His Kingdom shall be built in later days which is now. Considering His teachings and sacrifice on the cross to what extent can we say that His lifestyle has influenced man? Has there been commensurate positive change in the life of man or has there been unimaginable increase in evil. The answer is quite obvious.

The Personification of The Trinity in this generation which is in accordance with the prayer and promise of Christ (in John 14: 16, and John 16: 13) has become the most controversial of all issues in the world.

The Father's mission as you know is here to teach, sanctify and lead man to the accurate knowledge of truth; thereby transform him from his vile nature to a perfect standard required for the attainment of His Kingdom. The Father with the intent to achieve the above has laboured day and night for the past five decades. In view of this sacrifice has mankind by any means taken advantage of this divine privilege to avail themselves the salvation brought gratis. What about those of you in Brotherhood of the Cross and Star?
What proof have you as those who profess to have seen Jehovah God and His Christ? What is your expectation when you are still neck-deep into sin?

What proof does the people in the world who claim to know Christ and not Olumba Olumba Obu have? Is the lifestyle of Christ seen in them? Having decided to maintain their evil ways, what is their expectation since according to them Christ shall come from the blue sky? Will they be raptured with Him alongside their iniquities and sin?

From all indications, history rarely moves in a straight line, its course is uneven just as the history of God and man relationship and interactions from creation have been. Human existence has always appeared fraught with danger for man. In accordance with The Holy Father's divine programme for man, man's destiny has to be fulfilled in time; spiritual growth and attainment is an essential law. Humanity surely has a past; man must build his future based on the events of the past. How many in the society of man have realised this; how many in the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star have equally come to this knowledge and to where are their lives inclined?

After the physical revelation of the "Judgment Equipments" by The Holy Father to the entire creation in the year 1978, certain divine events that will quicken the accomplishment of the will of God in the world through judgment, revelation and institutionalisation of the Divine Personage, Authority, Power, Dominion, Rulership and Eternal Sovereignty of The Iron Rod Ruler has taken place over the past couple of years. These events are meant to effect the actualisation of His Divine Plan of Ages. Before now I have made it known to mankind that everyday in a man's life is a judgment day.
First among the said events is the physical revelation of The Personality of The King of Kings and The Lord of lords in the early morning hours of 2nd November 1991. Only the spiritually minded will understand the spiritual essence and universal implication of that revelation.
Second is the physical Crowning and Coronation of The King of Kings and The Lord of lords on the 14th of April 2001 which reveals that the rulership of the creation has been handed over to Him that is ordained from heaven to govern all things created and uncreated visible and invisible in His supreme power, authority and wisdom.
Third is the Universal Celebration of The Eternal Dominion of Jehovah God and His Christ observed on the 10th of April 2004. The event compliments the coronation and it was meant to impress on man and the creation concerning the unequalled supremacy of The Trinity as is being and shall continually be exhibited through the office of the Son of God.
Fourth is the Universal Celebration of the Eternal Redeeming Covenant held 25th-26th March 2005. Through this the Ark of Covenant was revealed to the creation. This marked officially that judgment had ensued to pave way for the new heaven and new earth constituted by new generation of people that shall appear soon. The event signalled the marking and sealing of God's Covenant for redemption with humanity.
Fifth in the list is the Universal Talents Revelation held 14th-15th April 2006 which was also aimed at enforcing the ongoing judgment and quickening of all persons to discover and employ their God given talents in accomplishing The Father's purpose in the world.

Today 7th April 2007, humanity vis-à-vis the creation is privileged to witness the physical confirmation of The Seal of The Living God on all things created by The Holy Father.
As it is written "a man can receive nothing except it is given to him from heaven" (John 3:27). In this wise therefore let it be known to you all now that predestination which goes hand in hand with the will and operations of The Supreme Father cannot be dissociated from the sealing exercise.

“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate … Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.” (Rom 8:29-30).
In addition, John 17: 12 says “While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.”
 
But do not be deceived, for The Father being the author of destiny can make and unmake the destiny of any creature even man and angels. Therefore those predestined and sealed today for salvation should endeavour to be steadfast in uprightness to the end while those predestined and sealed for damnation resulting from disobedience should as well hold on tenaciously to evil and wickedness for as it is written in Rev 22: 10-14 thus –
“…Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.” (of the kingdom)" In view of the above scriptures is it not clear to mankind that I have on this day passed My verdict therefore it is needless waiting for My next coming.

Ignorance about the will and dynamics of the Almighty Father and His Christ has always constituted a bane to the sense controlled humanity. Most have met their doom as a result of this, the more reason mankind have been duly informed in the scriptures which says that to be carnally minded is death but to be spiritually minded avails peace and everlasting life. In line with this, the carnally minded suppose members of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star hold the opinion that most of the activities and events we celebrate here are only geared towards money making.
The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is not of this world neither is her Leadership. It is a heavenly incorporated institution with its roots in the heavens. Everything about its Leadership and the Organization as a whole although it is unlimited, is divinely inspired and recorded in most holy books of the world. All our references and events come from The Holy Bible. The Seal of The Living God is another stage in God's plan to achieve the royal priesthood of people drawn from diverse tongues and tribes.
It will not be out of place to say that The Seal of The Living God had existed in the genesis of God interrelationship with man. The Seal comes to play each time there is an inevitable divine need to flush the earth of its evil and wickedness. In the days of Noah when it was time to seal the righteous for salvation and the unrepentant workers of iniquity for their due damnation, The Holy Father in Genesis 6: 17-19 spoke to Noah thus;
“And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die. But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee. And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark,…”
Before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, as a result of their depravity, Lot and his household, except his wife who flouted the instructions of the two angels were sealed to be saved. Again when The Lord was to pass round the house of the Egyptians to smite all their first born with death, because of their wickedness against the Israelites, the Israelites being chosen were sealed with the blood of a lamb.
The number 12 is spiritually very significant in unravelling the mysteries of God vis-à-vis His operative power and manifestations in the diverse degrees of Creation.

Esoteric science recognises the 12 Zodiac Signs of the Universe and each sign relatively control the destinies of those born into the world of matter on a given day.

Jacob the younger of the two Sons of Isaac had 12 Sons who later became the founding fathers of the tribes of Israel. The part played by Jacob, his 12 sons and the evolving 12 tribes of Israel in relation to the old testament and its message for man cannot be over emphasized. The nation of Israel was chosen as a prototype through which The Holy Father will manifest His Divine plan of the Ages respective of other nations of the world. At the physical appearance of Christ over 2000 years ago, He chose for Himself 12 special apostles apart from other disciples. The 12 apostles represented the 12 powers of man which constitutes The Christ. The teachings of Christ was to enable every man evolve The Christ in him which seem to have disappeared resulting from spiritual and moral degration occasioned by sin. Thus our Lord Jesus Christ declared "What I have done, all men can do; what I am all men shall be".

It is not out of place that in Biakpan from where The Supreme Father and The Christ of the new age emerged in this generation is made up of 12 families representing the 12 Sons of Jacob and the 12 tribes of Israel. Being moved by The Holy Spirit through the revelation given to man, that Biakpan in later days will be known as the Nazareth of the new age the Ancestral Motherhood Council of the Community felt it is necessary to structure Biakpan into 12 families for the purpose of practicing love as the ancient tribe of Israel could not practise love in its true sense.

The natural characteristics, conduct, behaviour, temperament and qualities associated with the 12 Sons of Jacob and their respective offsprings definitely were in accordance with the blessings or causes of as pronounced by Jacob upon his 12 Sons.

The Covenant which I made with Moses has gone. The former life have passed away. This is the dawn of a new age where love is the new covenant. While the representatives from the HQs were going round to introduce this event, it was made clear that the blessings or curses placed by Jacob on his 12 Sons and their tribes have been abolished and behold today I make all things new. In this regard let it be known that the 12 tribes of Israel as reintroduced in the new kingdom today carries different destinies and blessings.

The Book of Revelation Chapter 7 tells you everything about the exercise of today. The second and third verses of that Chapter states thus; “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.”

How many in the world including those of you in the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star have seen either the four angels that are holding the four winds of the earth at its four corners or the angel that is appealing for the sealing of the servants of God. Now that the condition for sealing is that one must be a true servant of God, how many here and those in the world are actually the true servants of God and how many are not. You now see the reason why I told you over 2000 years ago in John 12:48 that:
“He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.” Now that the last days are before us, what do you have to say?

Verse 4 of the same Revelation 7 has informed that the total number of those sealed were 144,000 but from each of the 12 tribes of Israel 12,000 were sealed. Furthermore, we are informed that the multitude of 144,000 that were sealed for eternal life are they which came out of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. (Rev 7: 14) “And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”
Since the gathering of today is at the instance of The Almighty Father, it is crucial to ask how many of you have in the true word of it come out of the great tribulation.

Tribulation is the only way to test your belief and faithfulness to God. Many have fallen back to the ways of the world because they could not endure the test of tribulation. Now that it is time to seal everyone according to his or her works what kind of seal are such people that fallen away expecting? What about those of you here? What kind of seal are you expecting?

The Book of Romans 6:4 says “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” By your baptism therefore it is expected that you should shed off the coatings of sinfulness or falsehood which constitutes the kingdom of the world.

Those in the kingdom of falsehood or darkness are identified by their rebellious acts and conducts as stated in Galatians 5: 19-21 which stated thus:
“Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.”
In view of this divine assertion, it is clear that those who fall into this group shall surely attract the negative seal which qualifies them for damnation.

Through baptism, one is supposed to rise from the mud of sin or death unto righteousness and consequently unto eternal life. In line with Galatians 5:22-23 posits thus: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” The above identifies you as a child of this Kingdom.

Our Lord Jesus Christ is the truth. The truth is eternal; it is God. The pillars of The Seal of The Living God in addition to the foregoing comprise of unwavering hope, belief, faith, perseverance, devotion, dedication, purity, holiness, humility, meekness, honesty, mercy and righteousness in all its ramifications. None can evolve the above characteristics except such have crucified the flesh and its lusts as I have already told the world that “He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.” (Rev 3: 5).
Do not be deceived about the white garment you are putting on, if your work confirms you for the Seal for damnation your name will not be confessed and your white garment will surely be taken from you. The white raiment signifies the righteousness of those who have indeed come out of the great tribulation without faltering in good works. To such belong the seal of salvation.

Most of you are wondering how I will be able to seal the crowd gathered here with respect to everybody's merit talk less of the entire humanity. The Brotherhood connotes God and the Creation. Those of you here represent humanity in totality both visible and invisible. Having been grouped into the 12 tribes of ancient Israel although with totally new destinies, the whole world have consequently and accordingly been grouped into the 12 tribes. As you have been sealed according to your works so has mankind today been sealed according to theirs in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

In like manner, I have sealed all positions of authority, power in all worlds and dominions. Only those sealed to rule shall rule. The rights of individuals, communities, institutions, states, Nations, governments have also been sealed accordingly. Those vying for one leadership position or the other should beware else they attract the wrath of God. Those struggling to pastor the flock of God should also check and see if they have the seal for eternal life otherwise they should not bother. This warning applies also to those striving to head their various families, places of work and whatever institution or organisation they find themselves. Have you not read the scripture which says that "a man can receive nothing except it be given him from above (John 3:27) Relatively, is it not clear to you all that this exercise have taken place before the material world came to be. Today's exercise is but only a physical confirmation for those meant for the kingdom are already in the book of life.
Romans 4: 11 states “…he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:”

The Seal of The Living God is therefore The Father's own reward to the elects for steadfastness and diligent devotion to the ideals and tenets of the Kingdom of God. Again it is punishment for the wicked and unrepentant.

The Kingdom of God you have been told is not meat and drink and making of merriment but peace and righteousness in The Holy Spirit. Only the righteous shall attain the Kingdom state. The ultimate of The Father's mission is to perfect all believers to become acceptable sacrifices unto God and His Christ. You cannot become a living sacrifice acceptable to God when you are still neck-deep in sin. Therefore for those who have truly come out of the great tribulation and have washed their garment in the blood of the Lamb I  have this to say unto you:
“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:” (1st Peter 2:9-17);
 
“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8.)

The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is God's Universal Kingdom. God has come to dwell and rule the world and He that beareth the sword of God beareth it not in vain.

The repentant He shall receive, but notwithstanding, all shall pay the price they owe in a given lifetime. Now is the time to pay. Governments, religious bodies and other human institutions rather than encourage evil, support and propagate the ordinances of The Almighty God perchance they shall receive His grace and blessings through The Son who reigns in the kingdom of mankind; In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

The seal is a divine scheme for spiritual regeneration and integration of humanity into one universal family ruled and operated with the intrinsic ideology of love and brotherhood of man awareness.

Therefore having been sanctified through the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ and the baptism of the Holy Spirit, you have been made the ambassadors of the new Kingdom of God on Earth. That being the case, it behoves on you all to put away the old person of sin and allow the light of God to shine in your lives through righteousness so that those in the darkness may see your light and come to the Light Divine.

Today concludes the American week anniversary. Those of you from Nigeria or Africa that have been sent to that country should see yourselves as ambassadors but if you claim to come from Nigeria and have known everything about the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and its leadership, rather than intimidate new members with such debased notion for material gains, you should employ your supposed wealth of experience and knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom in making others advance spiritually, also same should be used to engender the structural development and spread of the kingdom in other countries. Brethren from the USA should see themselves as one and work in unity to achieve the goal of the kingdom; the same applies to those from UK, Germany, etc.

During my meeting with all Leader’s Representatives at the inception of this Pentecostal, the following was brought to the knowledge of all.

There is only one Leader's Office of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star all over the world and that is at the World Headquarters. No Leader’s Rep is authorized to open and name his or her office The Leader's Office. Leader’s Reps are only authorised to use the name "Office of the Leader's Representative of the constituency, in question. Same designation should be used in their letter headed papers.

The Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is a divine institution. Her administration is divine as such all official policies, rules and regulations guiding any unit, fellowship, constituency or the organisation as a whole is at the prerogative of The Holy Father. No Leader’s Rep, Executive, group of persons has such mandate to do same or to streamline the administration the way he/she deems fit. Brethren who think that they have better administrative ideas regarding certain areas of the kingdom's operations should channel their suggestions to The Leader's Office. In this wise the International Leader’s Representatives Fellowship is not by any means authorised to make any form of direct policy, rather they are to check the activities of Leader’s Reps in their various constituencies and ensure that official directives from the Headquarters are duly implemented.

For instance in Ghana a Bishop assigned to that country wrote a constitution and arrogated all administrative powers in that country to himself. The Bishop also created an office for himself which he called “The Leaders office” in Ghana. Such disregard to the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star divine authorities and ambition for power must come to an end. Sometimes it seems to me that some of you who suppose that my judgments are based on reports made against you. If you do the right thing you would not be afraid of report. Your conscience only pricks you when you know that you are doing or have done the wrong thing. Let it be known to you now that your past, present and future activities in this Kingdom determines what kind of judgment you get.

Rather than expend energy and resource seeking for power and positions of glory in this fold such should rather be employed in the expansion and establishment of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star in other places or countries. Right now countries like Zimbabwe, Niger and many others needs spiritual and material support. Fellowships can be mobilized by the Leader’s Reps and Bishops to embark on humanitarian service to such countries as humanitarian gestures will create good relationship between the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star and the government of these countries.

Brethren on that note let it be known to you that having been sealed according to your new tribe and consequently your new destinies, your rewards as ordained from heaven have been given to you all today. The same apply to humanity in general.

As many of you that believes on the divinity of the event of today and on Him that speaks to all the creation in spirit and in truth, have been saved in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. But for the unbelieving, their unbelief has availed them what they deserve.

Let my peace and blessing be unto the creation now and forever more. Amen.

Thank You Father.
