    Recall now our Lord Jesus Christ was walking with His disciples and suddenly, He said; Blesseare they among you here who would never taste of death till they see the glory of God. Six daylater, He took three of His disciples up a mountain where He transfigured. Read Matthe17:1-6. Who caused that drama? Such is the way He has chosen to relate with man. Thereforbe rest assured that God is always with you in fulfillment of his promise that he will not leavyou comfortless. You should never try to comprehend Him by any other way for you will nevget at Him.Our Lord Jesus Christ has said that no one knows the Father except the son and who the Fathemay choose to reveal Him to. God is Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent. He is in aforms: He abides in all planes of manifest, thus, He is all-knowing. In order to fulfill the wordof the scripture that, not even a bone shall be broken in Him, on the day that He was crucifiethe plan was that if he refused to die the soldiers will break one of His legs.Being an all-knowing God, and realizing this fact, He decided to give up His spirit to the FatheThus, he exclaimed, 'Father, I have committedmy spirit into thy hands.' Immediately, He gaup the ghost, He left the house (His body) and was looking at it from somewhere else. On t

    arrival of the soldiers, they saw Him already dead and so, had no need to break His leg but opierced His ribs. After three days, He walked back into the house and took possession owhich manifested in His resurrection. That was the way He choose to dramatize His will toworld. This is why you should be confident in the fact that God is always with mankind.I am so grateful for that which is contained in the golden text because man has never realized he came from God and when he dies he would go back to God. This explains man's claim twhen he dies, he would do one thing or the other oblivious of the fact that he is going backGod. Our Lord Jesus Christ, however, realized this fact. When you read the golden text, will realize that there is nothing like death, sickness, witchcraft, etc. as claimed by man.THERE IS NO DEATH:Beloved, be informed that our Lord Jesus Christ is above aU and knows everything. Thyou should stop claiming to come from the Hades, 'Yater, forest, etc. for you come from nowhelse other than God. You should also stop claiming that when you die, you will go back meet your father in the Hades because according to you, you had a dream in which you saw ydead father. You at times, worry when somebody is sick because you are afraid that the perwould die. Does that not portray lack of faith? If our Lord Jesus Christ, the Creator did not how then can you die? You should stop all forms of lamentation because God is always wyou. Read the golden text again.GOLDEN TEXT: JOHN 13:3"Jesus knowing that thefather had given all things into his hands, and that he was comefrGod, and went to God. "

    THE FATHER IS EVER WITH YOU:Beloved, abide in peace and worry no more, about the problems that surround your existence

    commullity wpich hitherto, was inhabited by orJy few persons is now over populated? This ishow God works. He had already commanded, Go ye and multiply and so it happens.It is said, so long as a grain of maize stays on its own, it cannot multiply but once it drops on thesoil and decay, it germinates, grows and bears many fruits and multiplies. Today, people say thatour Lord Jesus Christ died but now what is the position of things? Is He not found allover theworld? Then, why are you afraid? Apostle Paul said he had a divided thought for, on one hand,he thought of leaving the world to stay with the Lord and on the other, he thought of stayingwith the adherents. Be informed that wherever one is, the person is with God. We should carryout activities that will make us to search or seek for God, for it is from Him that we came and toHim also are we going. Now, no one is being recognized in the flesh but in the spirit. Christ isno longer recognized in the flesh but in the spirit. Hence, you find that joy reigns everywhere.The works of darkness are gone and what we have now is love, peace, meekness, mercy,humility among other virtues. A multitude is c o m i ~ here, they are from the Father just as thoseofyou here. And we all shall also, go to the Father.I t is said that a stroke of the cane is enough for the wise. Let those that have ears hear what theHoly Spirit has imparted to the entire world. May God bless His holy words - Amen.

    HIGHLIGHTS:

    TH E FIRST A DAM WAS A CHIL D OF GOD, AND THE SECOND ADAM WASA CHI LD OF GOD. THE THI RD ADAM IS THE MA NIFESTATI ON OF THEFATHER, THE SON A ND THE H OLY SPIRIT.

    I t w as th i s sta tem en t w h ich p rompt ed Ph i li p to ask to beshow n the Father , w hen he sa id: "Lord show us the Fathertha t i t may su f f i ce us . " Our Lord Jesus Chr is t sa id un to h im," I have been so long w i t h you and you have no t k now n me,and you say show us the Father . When you see me you haveseen the Father ; and how sayest thou t hen Show us theFather ." He c ont inues to t e l l h im: "Be l ieve tha t I am in t heFather and the Father is in m e. The w ord tha t I speak un toyou, I speak no t o f myse l f bu t the Father w ho dw e l ls in m e,He does t he w ork ." (J ohn 14:8-11). Have you heard t heansw er g iven by Our Lord Jesus Chr is t t o h is d isc ip les and

    the peop le? At another t ime, the d isc ip les conf ron ted OurLord Jesus Chr is t t ha t He a lw ays made re fe rence t oheaven ly th ings , tha t He shou ld show them heaven ly th ingsand Our Lord Jesus Chr is t to ld t hem, " I f I have t o ld youeart h ly th ings and you do not be l ieve, how shal l you be l ievew hen I te l l you heavenly t h ings?" (John 3:12).

    Brethren , rea l ize tha t you er r w hen you te l l peop le to go toLagos, and they w i l l see Chr is t ; or i f they w ent t o Amer ic a or

    London they w ou ld see H im. Whenever you mak e tha t typeof asser t ion , you have er red . That i s no t t he type o f w ork w eare expect ed to do , because the w ord o f God has c lear lyt old us t hat : WE SHOULD FOLLOW PEACE WITH ALL MENAND HOLIN ESS, WITHOUT WHICH NO MAN SHALL SEE THELORD. I t is just l ik e you ask ing a b l ind man t o look at h isface in t he mi r ro r , because he cannot see , he w i l l no t beab le to beho ld his face in the m i r ro r . Such an ac t amounts t o

    your mock ery o f the b l ind man, w hen you know very w e l ltha t he cannot see , and you are there fo re foo lish to p resenta mir ror t o h im t o look at h im sel f . SIMILARLY YOU KNOW AFORNI CATOR, A DRUNK ARD, A TH IEF, A LI AR, A MURDEREROR ANY OTH ER SINNER WILL N EVER SEE THE LORD, WHY

  • 8/2/2019 He is a Quickening Spirit

    12/75

    THEN DO YOU CALL THEM TO FOLLOW YOU TO SEE THELORD?

    Quote the B ib le passage w h ich supports t he fac t t ha t ath ie f , a d runkard , a sw ind le r , a fo rn ica t or , a l ia r w i l l ever seethe Lord and I shal l quo te fo r you tha t no s inner w i l l see theLord. The Sc ript ure says: AND EVERY MAN THAT HATH THISHOPE IN H IM PURIFI ETH H IM SELF EVEN AS HE IS PURE. Iti s no t easy fo r a person to know God, ne i ther is i t s im p le toknow Our Lord Jesus Chr ist . The pr iv i lege o f k now ing God isa spec ia l ass ignm ent . Even i f you are a ph i losopher, aprofessor, an engineer, a doct or or a sc ient is t , you cannot

    know God exc ept t hose who are spec ia l l y p r iv ileged. THEABI LIT Y T O KN OW OUR LORD J ESUS CHRIST IS A SPECIALENDOWMENT BY GOD. What w as t he t eac hing of Our LordJ esus Christ in t h is reg ard? He said: "BLESSED ARE THEPURE IN HEART, FOR TH EY SHAL L SEE GOD." ONLY THEPURE IN H EART CAN SEE GOD. You w ho profess to see, ISYOUR HEART PURE? You w ho go about purport ing t o haveseen God, and ca l l ing upon people t o go and see God, have

    you proved that t he i r hearts are pure? Can you p lace yourprec ious gem before the sw ine?

    SO BRETHREN, THE TROUB LE OF THE WHOLE WORLDEMAN AT ES FROM THIS FACT OF SEEING GOD VIS--VISHAVIN G A PURE HEART.

    SHOULD GO TO SUCH PLACES TO GET LI FE. ALL THAT H E HASENJ OINED YOU TO DO IS THA T WHAT EVER YOU REQUEST OF THEFATH ER IN HIS NAM E, HE WILL DO IT FOR YOU. IF CHRIST LOVESYOU HE WILL REVEAL H IMSELF TO YOU, PROVIDED YOU HAV E

    COMPLIED WITH HIS TEACHIN GS. I AM TELLIN G YOU, HE CANREVEAL H IMSELF TO YOU RIGHT NOW, BOTH PHYSICALLY ANDSPIRITUALLY, AND NOT IN THE DREAM. I do not k now how you rega rdOur Lord Jesus Chr is t? I do not k now how you love h im? Have you notbeen to ld that he d ied once unto s in, but now He l i ves unto God and Hehas no connect ion w i th s in . He i s mov ing everywhere , he doeseveryth ing for you. Is there any point in t im e you cal led on Him and hedoes not respond t o your ca l l? Cal l on your ear th ly parents and see i ft hey c an sa t i s f y your needs, if t hey c an pro tec t you, i f t hey c an rescue

    What d id he t e l l h is d isc ip les? He sa id: "He tha t ha th mycom mandments and keepe th them, he i t i s tha t l oveth m eand he tha t love th m e sha l l be loved o f my Father , and I w i l llove him and w i l l man i fes t myse l f to h im." (Joh n 14:21). Sobre t hr en , DESIST FROM REFERRING PEOPLE TO LOCATI ONS WHERETH EY WILL FIN D OUR LORD J ESUS CHRIST, BUT RATH ER PRACTICEHIS OWN TEACHIN GS AN D COMPLY TO HI S INSTRUCTI ONS, IF YOUREALLY WANT TO SEE HIM. When the J ew s being ast onished a t hisw onderfu l teach ings , contempla ted w i th in them se lves saying : "Howknow eth t h is man le t t ers , hav ing never learned?"

    YOU CANNOT FIND J EHOVAH GOD AND HI S CHRIST

    SOMEWHERE ELSE. YOU CAN ONL Y FIN D HIM I NYOURSELF. TH AT IS WHEN YOU WEAR THE BOWELS OF THEVI RTUES OF GOD. HE IS IN Y OUR HEART. HE IS NOT FAR,HE IS NEARER TO YOU TH AN T HE TONGUE TO THE MOUTH .BUT IF YOU GIV E YOURSELF UP TO VICES, YOU WIL LNEVER SEE HIM TI LL DOOMSDAY, BUT HE IS VERY MUCH INEXISTENCE. THE TEACHIN G IMPARTED TO US BY OURLORD J ESUS CHRIST WAS TO ENA BL E US TO SEE HIM. Th at

    w as w hy he to ld Nic odem us that : "EXCEPT A MAN BE BORNAGAI N, HE CANNOT ENT ER IN TO THE KI NGDOM OF GOD."HE AL SO ADDED: "EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN OF WATER ANDOF SPIRIT, HE CANNOT ENT ER INTO THE KI NGDOM OFGOD." (J ohn 3:3-5). This i s w hy He als o says: " I AM THE

  • 8/2/2019 He is a Quickening Spirit

    18/75

    WAY, THE TRUTH , AND THE LIFE." (J ohn 1 4:6). IT M EANSTHA T H IS TEACHINGS ARE THE WAY, AN D WHEN YOUABI DE BY T HEM, THEY WILL LEAD YOU TO CHRIST ANDYOU WILL SEE HIM AND DWELL WITH H IM. When the J ew s persecuted Our Lord Jesus Chr is t , and theysought to s lay H im bec ause He had w orked on the SabbathDay, J esus t o ld t hem : "MY FATHER WORKETH HITHERTO IWORK." (Jo hn 5 :17). HE ALSO TOLD THEM: THE SON CANDO NOTHIN G OF HIM SELF, BUT WHAT HE SEETH TH EFATH ER DO: FOR WHAT SOEVER THI NGS HE DOETH, TH ESEALSO DOETH T HE SON LIK EWISE. (Jo hn 5:19). This m eans

    tha t Our Lord Jesus Chris t saw the Father , He is pure inw ords , thoughts and deeds. Has He no t t aught you tha t Godis the Father o f everyt h ing and that God is a Spi r i t? That isw hy He t eaches us say ing : "Love your enemies , b less themthat curse you, do good to t hem t ha t ha t e you and pray forthem tha t w ho despi te fu l l y use you and persecut e you, tha tye may be c h i ldren of Father w ho is in heaven, for Hemak eth H is sun to sh ine on t he good and ev i l and he sendeth

    t he ra in on the just and unjust . " (Mat t 5 :44-45). Do not t h inktha t th is sp i r i t c ons is ts o f shak ing the head. I t i s no t ! THESPIRIT IS SOMETHIN G WHICH IS BLA MELESS ANDSPOTLESSLY PURE. Whatsoe ver t h ings ar e tr ue, w hat soeverth ings are honest , w hatsoever th ings are love ly , w hatsoevert h ings are of good report , i f ther e be any v i r t ue, and i f therebe any pra ise t h ink on t hese t h ings. (Phi l 4 :8) . What aret hese th ings bret hren? When you hear o f spi r i t you th ink i t

    cons is ts o f shak ing the head. Th is is no t so becausesomebody purpor ted t o be possessed o f the sp i r i t c an shakethe head, but he cont inues to fo rn ica t e , s tea l , and te l l l ies .Is tha t the sp i r i t in ac t ion?

    When that law yer addressed Our Lord Jesus Chr is t say ing,

  • 8/2/2019 He is a Quickening Spirit

    19/75

    "Good Master , w hat sha l l I do to inher i t e te rna l l i fe?" J esussaid unto Him : "Why ca l lest t hou me good? There is nonegood but one, that is God," (Mat t 19:16-17). Do you not seet hat t he Father i s good? He is pure and b lameless. Today i fyou do good to som ebody, he pays you back w i th a bad c o inbecause he does no t k now God. I f you peop le speak t het ru t h , they w i l l regard you as l ia rs , because they do no t havet he Holy Spir i t , and the y do not k eep t he WORD OF GOD.Somet imes you v is i t somebody, and he dr ives you aw aysaying, everyone is ev i l for t here is no good man on eart h .A l l these happen because w e do no t fo rsake s in , w e bear

    grudge, and p lo t ev i l against o t hers. Every person has goneast ray f rom t he w ays of God. Our Lord Jesus Chr is t has t o ldyou p la inly tha t : "Unto the pure a l l t h ings are pure , bu t un t ot hem t hat are def i led, and unbel iev ing noth ing is pure, buteven the i r m inds and consc ienc e is def i led." (Ti tus 1:15).TH IS EXPLAI NS THE REASON WHY OUR LORD J ESUSCHRIST GAVE US THE INJ UNCTI ON THAT WE SHOULD LOVEONE ANOTHER AS HE LOVES US. THIS IS THE WAY, THE

    TRUTH AND TH E LIFE. IF YOU LOVE ONE ANOTHER THENYOUR EYES WILL B E OPENED AND YOU WILL REALIZE THATOUR LORD JESUS CHRIST DWELLS IN YOU AND YOU WIL LSEE GOD AND HIS CHRIST.
