1. OOOTHE WORD CENTERPRESENTSBROTHERHOOD IS THE SEAT OF POWERThe situation prevalent in the world today is likened to a carin a thick forest. The car is there, but it is impossible todrive it to the outer road.Brotherhood of the Cross and Star is now saving thewhole wor ld. That is the reason the feastscelebrated here and prayers said here are for thebenefits of the whole world, without which theentire-human race would have been inintense turmoil.BROTHERHOOD IS BEYOND THE ENTIRE WORLD.THIS IS THE SEAT OF WORLD GOVERNMENTS, THESEAT OF POWER. BUT FOR THE EXISTENCE OFBROTHERHOOD, THE ENTIRE WORLD WOULD HAVEPERISHED LONG AGO; OF COURSE, THE WORLDKNEW ABOUT THIS. BUT VERY SHORTLY YOU WILL SEEWHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE WORLD.You can witness this in Ivory Coast, wherethrough the prayers and fastings here inBrotherhood, the problems there were aver ted bythe Father. But verily, I say unto you that very shortlysomething will happen for a witness unto the entire world.The worldly people christen Brotherhood members 'troublemakers.' I implore you, my children, to remain

2. steadfast and watch the events which would engulfthe whole world.It is a pity to see somebody aspiring to be a president,governor, minister etc. when in reality they do not knowtheir left and, right. The entire world governments areseeking for solutions to their social and economic problems.THE ANSWER TO THIS IS FOR THE WORLD TORECOGNIZE THE EXISTENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRITNOW ON EARTH, BESIDES WHICH THEIR SOCIAL,POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WILL REMAIN.Take out Brotherhood of the Cross and Star, and there willbe no liberation in the world.The Holy Spirit has entered Israel, South Africa and is nowteaching in the Republic of Cameroon. The Cameroonianpresident, Mr. Paul Biya, is a Brotherhood. Cameroon is nowfree because the Holy Father has liberated Cameroon.There is no country where Brotherhood isestablished that such country will not be liberated.Recorded in Calabar, in August, 1992 by IBORO OBOT..THE FATHER HAS FINISHED HIS WORKAll that you do is counted for nought. THE PARAMOUNTTHING IS TO PRACTICE THE DIVINE COMMANDMENT OFLOVING ONE ANOTHER AND HOLDING ON TO IT.BELOVED, THE FATHER HAS ACCOMPLISHED EVERYTHING.HE HAS KEPT EVERYTHING IN ITS SHIP-SHAPE ORDER. HISSECOND COMING IS FOR THE UNITY OF THE ENTIREHUMAN RACE. HE HAS COME TO CLEANSE MAN AND MAKEHIM WORTHY OF HIM. THAT IS WHY SINNERS ARE NOTADMITTED HERE, FOR THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEPREVAILING PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD. WE DO NOT NEED A 3. LARGE NUMBER OF PERSONS WHO STILL INDULGE IN SIN,BUT A FEW WHO HAVE FORSAKEN EVIL. LOVE ISPARAMOUNT. THAT IS WHY THE SCRIPTURES STATE THATTWO OR THREE PERSONS, IF THEY POSSESS LOVE, AREMORE THAN A THOUSAND PERSONS.THE TRIUNE GOD IS NOW ON EARTH: Beloved, now that youhave seen the Father, what else do you need? Many desire tolearn more, but I wonder what they are learning. OUR LORDJESUS CHRIST IS HERE ON EARTH; GOD IS HERE ONEARTH, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ALSO ON EARTH, WHATELSE DO YOU WANT? PATHETICALLY THE ENTIRE WORLD ISGAZING AT THE SKY EXPECTING OUR LORD JESUS CHRISTTO CRASHLAND. I AM HOWEVER EXCITED BECAUSE THEENTIRE BROTHERHOOD IS AWARE OF THIS FACT THETRIUNE GOD IS HERE. THEY CANNOT BE DECEIVED TOLOOK INTO THE SKY, EXPECTING OUR LORD JESUS CHRISTTO COME DOWN AGAIN. MOST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD DOKNOW THAT OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST HAS MANIFESTEDBUT THEY FIND IT DIFFICULT TO ACCEPT THE TRUTH. BUTSINCE WE ARE AWARE WE ARE ALWAYS ABIDING IN JOY.Many people are now in search of what to do to earn aliving. The lawyer is in search of clients, doctors are insearch of patients, but all their efforts are in vain. Many ofthem have decided to get baptized, for this is the only wayout of their problem. Even the governments of the world areyielding to this force. A brother by name Ita, had testifiedabout the problems that prevail in the governments. THETRUTH IS THAT THEY WILL NOT BE IN PEACE EXCEPTTHEY SUBMIT TO GOD.THE CHANGE OF PEOPLE IN POWER IS NEVER THESOLUTION TO THE EXISTING PROBLEM. THE ULTIMATEWAY WHICH IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH IS FOR THEM TO 4. RECOGNIZE GOD, ELSE THE GOVERNMENT CANNOT BESTABLE. NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO, ASIDE FROMKNOWING GOD, THEY WILL STILL REMAIN IN SHAMBLES.THEREFORE WHEN THE GOVERNMENTS CONDUCTELECTIONS, NEVER BE BOTHERED, FOR SUCH AREFRUITLESS VENTURES. THE CONDITION FOR STABILITY ISHERE SPELT OUT, AND THAT, IS FOR THE GOVERNMENT TOKNOW AND REVERE GOD. Many people, when campaigning,do make promises of turning the economy around if they arevoted into power. But the question is can they change theirlifestyles? HOW WILL THEY BE ABLE TO BUILD THEECONOMY IF THEY NEITHER KNOW NOR REVERE GOD? ITIS ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE. A great many people areclaiming to be chairmen of Local Government Councils, butwhat good thing have they done? They rather amass wealthfor themselves and leave the masses in utter poverty. ALLTHEIR FILTHY PROMISES ARE JUST TO MOTIVATE THEPEOPLE TO VOTE THEM TO ATTAIN GREAT HEIGHTS; ANDONCE THEY ARE THERE, THEY ABANDON ALL THEY HADPROMISED AND CONCENTRATE ON THEIR PERSONALWELFARE. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT IN REALITY SEEK THEPOSTS BUT THEIR REAL MOTIVE IS TO SEEK FOR THEMONEY DERIVED FROM THESE POSITION.THE NEED TO REVERE GOD: The worldly people aspire toacquire great wealth. In spite of this, their aspirations availthem nothing. A TRUE BROTHERHOOD IS BETTER PLACEDTHAN AN AMBITIOUS WORLDLY MAN. TO ATTAIN THISENVIABLE STATE YOU MUST BE ABLE TO PRACTICE THEWORD OF GOD IN A STEADFAST WAY, AND LOVE ONEANOTHER AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF. The nakedness of theentire world has been exposed. People are now retracingtheir steps. In times past, it was never an easy task for a 5. king to visit a foreign place or land. But now, however, thekings and paramount rulers are all running down here to behealed by the Holy Fathers touch. The paramount rulersthemselves have become the propagators of the Word ofGod. THE PROBLEM OF THE ENTIRE WORLD IS THAT,PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO REVERE GOD, RATHER THEYGIVE REVERENCE TO THE EARTHLY RULERS. It is veryobvious that whenever anybody goes to see any royalhighness, he must bow and prostrate to show respect. Eventhe President, governor and other government officials mustshow respect to the Royal Highness. These RoyalHighnesses are given several honorary names to show signsof dignity. However upon all these esteemed names, they arestill coming here to seek salvation. THE IRONY OF THECASE IS THAT THOSE WHO ARE SO GLORIFIED ARESERIOUSLY IN NEED OF SALVATION, WHEREAS THE ONEWHO PROVIDES THIS SALVATION IS NOT REVERED. Thenecromancers who were hitherto highly regarded are todayproved completely incapable of doing anything. Theythemselves know they are powerless. They indulge in thisact to extort money from others and earn a living. Now theyall have yielded to the divine force, hence when you go toconsult any necromancer, you will find the picture of theFather in their shrines. This is what they use alongside theHoly Oil to effect the healing of their patients. The secretsocieties have all surrendered. They have been renderedpowerless and so they cannot harm anybody but you are stillundecided about the one you worship. Realize HENCEFORTHTHAT GOD ALMIGHTY, IS A GOD IN TIME OF NEED,WHENEVER YOU CALL HIM, HE READILY ANSWERS. HE ISAN OMNIPRESENT GOD. WHENEVER YOU NEED HIM JUSTGO ON YOUR KNEES AND CALL ON HIS NAME AND HE WILL 6. ANSWER YOU. BRETHREN, YOU ARE EXPECTED TO ADHERESTRICTLY TO THE FATHERS INJUNCTIONS AND TEACHINGSWHEREVER YOU MAY GO. SEEK AFTER HIM AND HE IS EVERREADY TO ANSWER YOU. LET THE INJUNCTIONS YOU AREGIVEN BE BINDING ON YOU. LET THESE INJUNCTIONSGUIDE YOU, AND YOU WILL HAVE NO CAUSE OFSTUMBLING ON YOUR WAY. Refer to Luke 1:7-end. Thescriptural portion above refers to John the Baptist, how hepreached about repentance and the coming of Our LordJesus Christ. Refer to Matthew 5:17-20 : Think not that I amcome to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come todestroy, but to fulfill. 18: For verily I say unto you, Till heavenand earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise passfrom the law, till all be fulfilled. 9: Whosoever therefore shallbreak one of these least commandments, and shall teachmen so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom ofheaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the sameshall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20: For I sayunto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed therighteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in nocase enter into the kingdom of heaven.BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBUTHE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSEBROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.EXCERPTS FROM: THE VERITABLE CHANNEL.GOD IS THE TREE OF LIFEThe saying that whoever believes in Him has eternal lifeinfers that whoever practices His teachings will liveeternally. When Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit, God 7. said, Behold man is become as one of us, to know good andevil; and now lest he put forth his hand and take also of thetree of life and eat, and live forever, therefore the Lord Godsent him forth from the Garden of Eden, to till the groundfrom when he was taken. So He drove out the man, and heplaced at the east of the Garden of Eden, Cherubim, and aflaming sword which turned every way to keep the way ofthe tree of life.What is this tree of life? It is what you are receivingtoday. Since that time there was no word of God. THE FIRSTPERSON TO PREACH THE WORD OF GOD IS OUR LORDJESUS CHRIST. Abraham did not know what is called theword of God. Neither Isaac nor Jacob knew except Our LordJesus Christ WHO IS GOD. GOD IS THAT TREE OF LIFE. Thatis why he says whoever believes in Him has eternal life. HasOur Lord Jesus Christ not told you that He is the true vineand His Father the husbandman? He added that the branchin Him that does not bring forth fruit shall be cut off. But ifyou abide in Him and He in you, you will bear much fruit. Heexplained that apart from Him, you are cut off and witheredand thrown into the fire.The Bread of Heaven one eats and lives forever is thisword of life. If you do not believe that you are a child of Godthen whose child do you think you are? I am saying that thewhole world is made up of the children of God. Heaven andearth belong to God, the fullness therein belong to God. ThePsalmist queries , Who shall receive the blessing from theLord and who shall stand in His holy place? He that hathclean hands; and a pure heart, who hath not lifted up hissoul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive theblessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God ofhis salvation. 8. Do not regard Brotherhood of the Cross and Star as theApostolic, Presbyterian, or Qua Iboe church, neither as Islamnor any organization in the world. This is the kingdom ofGod. You have problems because you do not know that thekingdoms of this world have become the kingdom ofJehovah God and His Christ. If you were to know you wouldnot talk and walk and behave the way you like. Do you notknow that this is the era of the Holy Spirit. As many as areled by the Spirit of God they are the children of God.BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBUTHE SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD OF THE UNIVERSEBROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR.EXCERPT FROM : THE PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE..GOD ALMIGHTY, THE KING OF KINGS ANDTHE LORD OF LORDS, HAS ARRIVED:It is said that the soil must be properly prepared before agood yield. From what is read to you, have you seen howChrist was prepared? Now have you seen that we have beengiven a new law? THE HOLY ONE HAS ARRIVED, GOD HASARRIVED. HAVE YOU SEEN HOW GOD CAME INTO THEWORLD, IN A WAY THAT CONFOUNDS EVERYONE? The glorywhich we have, is it through performing miracles, raising thedead or making the lame to walk? Is it through preaching?Did the prophets of old not preach? BUT IT IS ONLYBECAUSE HE IS THE HOLY ONE. HE IS IMMACULATE, APERFECT ONE, SPOTLESS AND COMPLETELY WITHOUT ANYBLEMISH. HE IS GOOD. John the Baptist said a voice cameto him through He who sent him to baptize people byimmersion and that whoever the Holy Spirit would descendupon, shall Himself baptize people with the Holy Spirit. John 9. the Baptist testified that he (John the Baptist) was awitness that Our Lord Jesus Christ was the Son of God.Have you seen the wisdom of God? Was that not GodHimself? Did you know that? None had known this. If it werenot so, He would not have been the Perfect God, andsalvation would have eluded us. No salvation would havecome to man. But now we have a mixed-up of peopleeverywhere. The salvation we have is not as a result ofwork, not of wisdom, not from learning BUT GOD HIMSELFWHO HAS COME DOWN TO SAVE US OUT OF MERCY, OUT OFLOVE AND OUT OF HIS GRACE. We should therefore followHim. Read our fifth bible witness. Fifth Bible Witness: Luke18:18-19 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master,what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 19: And Jesus saidunto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one,that is, God. WE HAVE ONLY ONE GOD, ONE KING, AND ONEPERFECT MASTER:We are now heading towards the end of our journey. Is thekingdom of God two? Is God two? Are the children of Godtwo? God is an indivisible whole. If you were the oneaddressed as Good Master would you not puff up by raisingyour shoulders high? Christ queried the young man, Whycallest thou me good? None is good, save one, that is God.Henceforth I am going to watch you closely to see if you callanyone GOD. Because nowadays, you are given food to eatand you will eat to your satisfaction and pronounce theperson who gave you food as God. Many of you have as manyas three different Gods. You even refer to some one whogives you a car as God. We are very pitiful. How many Godsdo we have in the entire world? WE HAVE ONLY ONE GOD.THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD IN THE ENTIRE WORLD. Are thingsnow clear to you? Will you no longer call a man God, or refer 10. to a tree as God? You erroneously refer to someone who isintelligent or powerful, as God. If someone is intelligent orpowerful FROM WHERE DOES HE ACQUIRE HISINTELLIGENCE OR POWER? ARE ALL THESE GIFTS ANDVIRTUES NOT FROM GOD ALONE? THE REAL NAME OF GODIS GOOD BUT HE USES GOD TO CONFUSE THE WORLD.(LUKE 18:18-19). Many necromancers, herbalists, nativedoctors have many gods as well as different names for them.For example, Aristo-Krishna have their own gods whom theyfeed, clothe, and render other services to. THE TRUE NAMEOF GOD WHICH IS GOOD, WHICH SIGNIFIES PERFECTION,AND NO IMPERFECTION, SHALL ENTER; HE IS HERE ONEARTH THE KINGDOM OF GOD.(LUKE 18:18-19). When youcompare a worldly person with God, is your head correct?By such comparison, you are insulting God. I am telling thisso that you do not hope that your money or academicknowledge shall guarantee you success into the kingdom ofGod. Your worldly possessions, the children you have willnot guarantee you entry. The only criteria for entry intoGods kingdom is perfection. The way and manner you relatewith one another, your humility, if you do not cheat others,tell lies, if you do not challenge God nor equate yourself withGod, then you are saved. Other considerations cannot leadyou into the kingdom of God. If you observed critically youwould notice that so many people out of ignorance thinkthat they are superior to God, wealthier than God, moregenerous than God, and they fi nally conclude by saying,What is it that God does that they themselves cannot do?SUCH IMPOSTORS HAVE NO SHARE IN THE KINGDOM OFGOD. But whoever is born of the HOLY SPIRIT knows thateverything in heaven and on earth belongs to God. THEYALSO KNOW THAT GOD IS EVERYTHING AND HE ABIDES IN 11. EVERYTHING. SUCH A PERSON DOES NOT ARROGATE TOHIMSELF, THE STATUS OF GOD, NEITHER DOES HE EQUATEHIMSELF WITH GOD. HE DOES NOT BOAST OR INSULT GOD,BUT HE SUBMITS HIMSELF TOTALLY BEFORE GOD.
