FROM VEGETARIANISM TO

FRUITARIANISM

MAN AND THE
UNIVERSE
TEXT GENESIS 1:1-31
1 In the beginning God created the heaven
and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void;
and darkness was upon the face of the
deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face
of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and
there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good:
and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the
darkness he called Night. And the evening and the
morning were the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in
the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters
from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and
divided the waters which were under the
firmament from the waters which were above the
firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven.
And the evening and the morning were the second
day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the
heaven be gathered together unto one place, and
let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and
the gathering together of the waters called he Seas:
and God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth
grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree
yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself,
upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and
1
herb yielding seed after his kind, and the
tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself,
after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning
were the third day.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in
the firmament of the heaven to divide the
day from the night; and let them be for
signs, and for seasons, and for days, and
years:
15 And let them be for lights in the
firmament of the heaven to give light upon
the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the
greater light to rule the day, and the lesser
light to rule the night: he made the stars
also.
17 And God set them in the firmament
of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over
the night, and to divide the light from the
darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning
were the fourth day.
20 And God said, Let the waters bring
forth abundantly the moving creature that
hath life, and fowl that may fly above the
earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21 And God created great whales, and
every living creature that moveth, which the
waters brought forth abundantly, after their
kind, and every winged fowl after his kind:
and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed them, saying, Be
fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in
the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening and the morning
were the fifth day.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring
forth the living creature after his kind, cattle,
and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his
kind: and it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after
his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing
that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and
God saw that it was good.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness: and let them have
dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the
fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the
earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in
the image of God created he him; male and female
created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto
them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the
earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the
fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and
over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29 And God said, Behold, I have
given you every herb bearing seed,
which is upon the face of all the earth,
and every tree, in the which is the fruit
of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall
be for meat.
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to
every fowl of the air, and to every thing that
creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I
have given every green herb for meat: and it was
so.
31 And God saw every thing that he had
made, and, behold, it was very good. And the
evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Brethren, in this generation, the Holy
Spirit is personified. His Mission on earth is to
return man to his original position in the Garden of
Eden. From the beginning of things, it was not
God's intention that man should kill any animal to
eat as food. From the foundation of the world,
God has not decreed that man should eat
meat, fish, or bird. Man was only given seeds
and fruits as food. But by transcending the
ancient landmark, man has now disobeyed the
ordinances of God. Upon his aspiration to know
2
all the mysteries of life and to acquire all the
wisdom of the world, man is still ignorant.
Human beings are blind and deaf in spite of
their various academic attainments and
mundane discoveries. I want to reveal to you
that there is no other thing in existence apart
from the word which is God. Genesis
chapter 1:1-31 tells us that God created
Heaven and Earth. HE HAD NO
DEPUTY IN CARRYING OUT THESE
ACTIVITIES.
ANIMALS, BIRDS, WATER,
FISHES ETC. ARE ANGELS AS
WELL AS GOD:
God created everything in the
universe: day, night, fishes, birds, other
animals, trees, water, air, sun, moon, stars,
fruits and other things. Now that you walk
on the ground, what do you think the earth is
made of? It is the word. Who is the word?
THE WORD IS GOD. Therefore, earth,
water, sun, moon, trees, fishes, and other
things are the word, which invariably make
them gods. In short, all God's creations are
God Himself. When you hear that God is
omnipresent, it means He is in each of His
creations. Hitherto, when you were not led
to this wisdom of the truth, you were
superstitious and called certain animals juju
or voodoo, you even identified the snake as
Satan, and some big trees in the forest you
named totems. The likeness of God is in
each of His creation.
It is said, man know thyself and
thou shall know all things. The leaf that you
pluck is spirit, and since the spirit is God,
the leaf is God. If you know yourself, you
will never pluck the leaf of a tree. The spirit
is the word and the word is life.
The creations of God had been in
existence from the foundation of the world.
All the images you see in the dreams
represent the spirit of the actual object in the
terrestrial plane. When you hear that God
delegated power to man, to govern and
rule over other creations, it is God
Himself who rules through man. Man is only a
figure-head.
The main difference between human
beings and other creations is that man is endowed
with the power of reasoning while animals and
others live by instincts. If God were not ruling His
creations through human beings, man alone would
not have had the power to control such animals as
elephants, leopards, tigers and other dangerous
animals. God made man superior to other creations
of His but all of God's creations have the same
spirit of God which is the word.
THE COMPOSITION OF MAN:
The earthly house that a man human
being dwells in is made up of water, blood, and
spirit. Water occupies about three quarters of the
human body. The three elements are one.
Whenever the word becomes flesh and dwells
among men, he is made of the word, Holy Spirit,
and the Father, and the three are one.(1 John 5:7).
The stones, trees, sand, wind, birds, fire,
insects and others are all gods, and they have the
capability to talk, walk, hear, and do everything as
human beings. They are spirits. All of them came
into being by the word of God. The various roots
and herbs that doctors use to prepare different
concoctions have different spirits when the
mixture ferments. Each leaf or root has its own
particular spirit that performs a specific
assignment. When the native doctor plucks leaves
to prepare his concoction, little does he know the
spirits
involved.
MAN IS THE HOUSE OF GOD
WHERE ALL THAT WE SEE IN
THE DREAM DWELLS:
Sometimes birds, or insects fly across
somebody's head and that person dies at the same
time. You may, in ignorance, attribute the cause of
his death to juju or that the bird was sent by
another person to kill that fellow. It was not sent
by anybody, for birds and insects are angels of
God, and they are capable of executing
punishment upon evil doers. Sometimes you may
pray over ordinary water that was drawn from the
tap and give it to a sick person to drink, and he
becomes well immediately. Do you know who is
3
in the water that heals a sick person? He is
Our Lord Jesus Christ.
WHEN YOU WALK BAREFOOT
ON THE GROUND, THE
VIBRATIONS OF THE EARTH
UNDER YOUR FEET HEALS ALL
YOUR SICKNESSES AND SOLVES
ALL YOUR PROBLEMS. All these
illustrations prove to you that God is in all
things and that He is the only one existing in
diverse forms.
There is nothing that exists on earth that
did not first exist in the spirit world. All the
designs for airplanes, cars, buildings,
radios and other inventions exist in
spirit before they manifest in the flesh.
Nebuchardnezzar had a dream, and he saw
golden images. When he woke up, he
assembled all his wise men, astrologers,
magicians and soothsayers but they could
not give the correct interpretation of the
dream. He then threatened to kill them if
they failed to interpret the dream. Daniel
came forth and gave the correct
interpretation of the dream. The golden
image is what the Roman Catholic Church
worships when they bell tolls at 6 a.m., 12
noon, and 6 p.m. and members fall down to
pray and make the sign of the cross on their
foreheads.
MAN:
Man is the house of God, and inside him
you have water, trees, fishes, fire, birds,
snakes, tigers, elephants, houses, women,
sun, moon, Abraham, Moses, Elijah, John
the Baptist, and Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Brethren, all the creations of God are found
inside a human being. That is why
sometimes, some of those things come out
of a human. Therefore it is quite wrong for
one to say I do this or that, but always say
we do this or that because you are a house
that contains all God's creations.
LEADER O. O. OBU DOES ALL
THINGS THROUGH THE
SPOKEN WORD:
 When you are traveling on a long journey and
you are thirsty, just say within you, I want water,
and the water in you will form a stream. You will
not travel up to two poles before you see a body of
water. That water came out of you. That is the
reason when you come before me, I always tell
you to go, I have given you a check, promotion,
children, wife, husband, house, work, you are free
from your case in the (high) court. Go, your
sickness is cured. Why do you always doubt me?
WHATEVER I SAY MUST COME TO PASS.
When Our Lord Jesus Christ was on earth in His
First Advent, what did He use in healing and in all
the mighty works He performed? It was only the
spoken word. What did God use in creating the
universe? The spoken word. Why then do you
doubt what you see in Brotherhood of the Cross
and Star where words alone are used to
accomplish all mighty works which shake the
world to its foundation.
THE HOLY FATHER IS
OMNIPRESENT:
As you sit down now, America, Britain, India,
Germany and indeed the whole world is within
you. Do you have this wisdom? The whole world
is in need of this revelation. As I am standing here
with you in the flesh, I am also seen lavishly in the
flesh all over the whole world at the same time.
Does this mean that I am alone? As I am lecturing
you now physically, I am also giving this lecture
in all planes of manifest, in the Hades and both the
living and the dead have received this lecture
equally as you have received. I am standing on the
highest heaven giving this lecture to you.
Sometimes in your dreams, you see houses,
motor-cars, lorries, fire, snakes, wind and other
things, whatever you see in the dream is living
inside you. You are all gods. Read John 10:34-25
THERE IS NO DEATH:
What you call death is terminologically
inexact. Nobody dies, but one is only translated
or transferred. Take for an instance, a snail
which abandons its old shell and later takes over a
new shell. Another snail can occupy the
abandoned shell. Therefore you cannot call an
empty shell a snail, because the spirit is not there.
4
The owner left the house and dwelt
somewhere else.
So it is with human beings. When the
spirit moves out of the mud building, it
dwells somewhere else. Brethren, God is a
mystery, and no one can understand the
works of His creation. Man can become a
fish, stone, elephant, bird, tree, and later on
he can change to human form again. As we
all are congregating here in Bible Class, we
are walking somewhere else in flesh.
Brethren, it is the Father alone who knows
the secret of His Kingdom. As we are sitting
down here, we all can disappear and change
our forms to something else. People of the
world sometimes confront you with the
question that your leader does not travel
outside, He is stationary. There is no need of
my going out since I know that I am
omnipresent. That is why you all see me in
your different offices, farms, houses,
physically and spiritually.
Wherever a Brotherhood of the Cross and
Star is, whether they are as many as the sand
of the seashore, I am always before and
behind all of them at the same time. I am not
only in your houses and offices in the flesh
but I dwell also inside all of you.
ANY CREATION OF GOD HAS
ITS SPECIFIC ASSIGNMENT:(1
Cor 12)
God has a reason for creating all the
things you find on earth, and each of them
has its duty. The leaves, roots, barks of
trees, sand, water, air, soil, and other things
have their distinct duties. Day and night
have their purposes. When the juju doctor
plucks a leaf for use, does God reveal to him
the duty of that leaf? (John 3:11-12).
When people claim that they go to the
cemetery to invoke the ghost to appear, it is
a lie because that spirit comes out from him.
That is why when Brotherhood members
come to your house to pray and call upon
my name I will come out from them in the
flesh and they always see me. THERE IS
NO NEED WHILE PRAYING TO FACE
THE EAST, OR WEST, OR SOUTH, OR
NORTH. GOD IS EVERY WHERE. The
earth is His footstool and heaven is the throne
of God. WHAT TYPE OF A HOUSE CAN
YOU BUILD FOR HIM? (Acts 7:47-50).
Who created night and day? It is God. Who
created the whites and the blacks? It is the same
God. Why should the whites influence you with
their color? Who is able among you to describe to
me exactly who you are? When you pray over
somebody and he is not healed it means your
words have no power of healing. And if you
preach to somebody and the words pierce into his
heart, he will repent and give testimony of the
wonderful gospel. The words that you speak are
not your own, there is somebody inside you
speaking through you. You are only transmitting
what he says. Do you know that invisible person
who speaks through you?
MAN EXISTED BEFORE THE
CREATION OF THE WORLD:
Man was already in existence before the
foundations of the world were laid, that was why
God said, "Let us make man in our own
image." It is only the framework that God created
in the garden of Eden but the spirit was already in
existence. The only advantage human beings have
over the animals is that God created them in His
own image and appointed them overseers of other
creations, otherwise the trees, animals, birds, wind,
fire, would have challenged human beings.
The trees, birds, water, sand, wind, insects,
ground, all speak like human beings. They have
water and blood like you. There is a certain tree
which if you touch or try to cut down, you die on
the spot because it is an angel. Sometimes in your
dreams you see yourself flying like airplane or you
see yourself dive inside water. God has different
forms when he comes into the earth plane. He
wears a human form in the midst of men. When
he is among the trees, He becomes a tree. When
He is among the fishes, He is also a fish. When He
is among the flies, He is a fly. When He goes into
the world of birds, stars, leaves, roots, water, wind,
grass, and other creations, he becomes like one of
5
their kind.
Many people say that Adam is God but I
tell you if Adam were to be God why did he
die? Brethren, God makes and unmakes,
there is no person to ask Him any questions
because HE HAS NO DEPUTY.
When He opens anything, there is no human
being or angel to close it and what He closes
no one can open. He makes old things new
and new things old. (Romans 9:20-21).
The trees and leaves have their special
reasons to be used. Now if you do not know
the reason and the function of a leaf or root
and you make use of it, you can kill
yourself. If we do not use leaves or roots for
the purpose God created them, they become
poisonous. The problem in the entire world
and Brotherhood is ignorance of this fact.
GOD HAS NO ORIGIN:
Now who can tell me the origin of God?
From where did He come? The Bible
says,"In the beginning GOD created heaven
and earth but does not describe the position
God stood when He created all those things.
Whether God is a white man, black man or
woman, the Bible does not tell us. (John
1:1-5)
The image of God is the word.
Speak to the stones, trees, flowers, grass,
animals, whether they will not answer you..
Goats only have instincts, but they do not
know how to discuss matters with one
another as human being do. The image of
God in a human being is the word he speaks.
Therefore, I strongly disagree with all those
who believe in the existence of mermaid,
witchcraft and fetish. This is because in the
beginning, God created all things, He never
created mermaid, witchcraft or juju. (Gen.
1:26-27).
Brethren, God created man in His own
image and likeness and delegated power to
him to rule over all other creations and name
all of them. My question now is, since man
occupies such a position of honor and
authority what did God himself control?
Brethren if God were not to be human, He
would not allow man to govern and dominate all
His creatures.
GOD, CHRIST, AND THE HOLY
SPIRIT ARE HUMAN BEINGS:
Man is the house of God. God is a human being,
Christ is a human being. We abandon God to
worship trees, stones, birds, mountains, rivers,
wind, sun, moon, stars, and other low creatures.
Why did God not delegate power to animals, birds,
fishes, sun, moon, or angels to control and govern
all things? The answer is that man is the house and
dwelling place of God.
All other creations are under man, and so if you
command a snake to bite somebody, it has to obey
you, because he is under you. If you command
thunder to destroy somebody's house or kill any
person, it must obey you because they are angels
but on judgment day all the atrocities you have
committed through the angels will count
against you.
God will not become any tree, fish, thunder,
wind, snake, or any lower creature because of the
havoc they create, but GOD CAN ONLY
BECOME MAN. Man suffers diverse
tribulations because of his wrong use of the word.
Since the ground, forest, trees, birds, grasses are
human, when you walk on the ground they will
look at you and listen to your conversation but you
do not know. When you go into the forest, all the
trees and animals in the bush speak to you and
know your mission but you do not know them or
understand what they say. (John 3:6-10).
Three quarters of your body is made of water,
where does the water come from and where does
the water go? Do you know where blood and the
spirit come from? When you say that person is
very fat, it is only water that fills his body.
Sometimes a medical consultant will tell a patient
that he is anemic and due for blood transfusion.
Why does he not create blood? When God
completed His work of creation, He saw that every
thing He created was good.
HUMAN BEINGS ARE STRANGERS TO
THEMSELVES:
Why then do you accuse witchcraft,
mermaid, devil, Satan, and Lucifer and call them
6
evil? Does the scripture not tell you that dust
will return to dust? When sand goes back to
sand, who created the sand? Let us come
home, as we are sitting down here, do you
know where you came from and where you
are going to? Some of you now may be 20,
40, or 50 years old, where were you before
you were born? As you all are here, are you
going forward or backward?
Since the foundations of the world were
laid, is there any person who can tell you
where he comes from and where he is going
to? And while he is alive on earth, can he
tell you where he is going to? Does it mean
that childhood marks the beginning of
his existence on earth? Man had existed
in spirit before the foundations of the
world, but before he came into the earth
he had to pass through the womb of a
woman. The womb of a woman is the
spiritual grave where all spirits pass to the
terrestrial plane and become flesh. If the
spirit does not pass through the womb, even
though corporal, he still exists in the spirit.
As a spirit, he can melt away at will.
Whatever you see in the spiritual world or
the dreamland also exists on earth. As we
are here, there are spirits always around us
and if you care for your children well, they
will enter into the womb of your wife and
become flesh. That is why you sometimes
say in the dream somebody gave me a male
or female child. When somebody dies, the
spirit moves out from the mud building or
the flesh. When the flesh is put inside the
coffin for burial, that spirit is physically
there in another form laughing at you and
sometimes following you to the grave.
Brethren, if you were to know that
man is the likeness of God, and that it is
impossible for God to die, then you will
realize that nobody dies. It is foolishness
to say somebody dies. However, do not be
desirous to know more about this revelation.
You cannot know the origin of God and the
mystery surrounding all His creations. You
are free to travel to any part of the world
but whenever you go, love one another.
FRUITS AND SEEDS FOR YOUR
FOOD:
Brethren, I am in great sympathy with many of
you who say, "I cannot do without meat or fish."
What do you think about your life, when you
continue to eat meat or fish? From the beginning
of the world God gave fruits and seeds as food to
man in the garden of Eden. Who has ever asked
you to eat meat or fish?
Brethren I have told you that animals, fishes and
birds are human beings. Any time you kill a
he-goat for food, somebody must surely die
somewhere in the world. You have therefore killed
a man. When you kill a she-goat, you have killed a
woman or girl. All male animals represent men
and female animals represent women. The ram
Abel offered to God was himself, and that
was the reason why after the sacrifice, his
brother could kill him.
All the fishes killed daily represent the number
of human beings who die daily in various parts of
the world. No matter how small a fish may be, he
is a human being. And if you cut down a tree you
have committed murder because somebody must
die somewhere. How many of you have this
wisdom? Now we are back to the garden of Eden
and so we must return to the former ways of life as
it existed in the garden. If Adam were to obey the
voice God, and he had failed to eat the fruit of the
forbidden tree, he would not have suffered death;
but since he disobeyed God, all the creations of
God turned around to attack him. So it is today
with every one of you. If you do not kill any
animal, bird, snake, they will never attack you. If
you do not cut down trees, another tree will not
fall and kill you. The trees, birds and other
animals, waters and other creations are under the
control of man. It is the duty of man to care for
them and not to destroy them.
Brethren, man is the house of God and if
somebody knocks you on your head, he knocks on
the head of God.
May my peace and blessing abide with the
entire world now and forevermore- AMEN.
Thank You Father.

FOOD, THE WORST
ENEMY OF MAN
First Bible Lesson: I Corinthians 15:26
"The last enemy that shall be
destroyed is death."
Second Bible Lesson: I Corinthians
6:13
"Meats for the belly, and the
belly for meats: but God shall destroy
both it and them."
Golden Text: Philippians 3:18-19
"(For many walk, of whom I
have told you often, and now tell you
even weeping, that they are the enemies
of the cross of Christ: Whose end is
destruction, whose God is their belly,
and whose glory is in their shame, who
mind earthly things)."
I have told you before that I
have not yet opened my bag containing
the articles of trade I have brought to
the whole world. What I have tried to
do so far, is to introduce the Father to
you. From day to day, and as time goes
on, I will continue to unfold to you the
shortcomings and hindrances in your
lives.
Food Kills
Today's sermon concerns food,
and the art of feeding, the evil of food,
and food as the source of destruction.
The last enemy is death. What is death?
Is man death? Is death spirit or tree or
any other thing? What do you consider
to be death? You have heard what the
second lesson says: Meats for the belly,
and the belly for meats: but God shall
destroy both it and them. Food is that
death referred to. Food makes you sick, it
makes you angry, and it kills the spirit in you.
Food is death and it is responsible for all the
evil things in you.
What God Prescribed For Man As Food
All those who desire to have eternal
life have started to live according to the will
of God. What did God prescribe for man to
live on? Read: Genesis 1:29: “And God said,
Behold, I have given you every herb bearing
seed, which is upon the face of all the earth,
and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a
tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for
meat."
God commanded that man should
freely eat of every fruit of the trees of the
Garden. But of the tree of the knowledge of
good and evil man should not eat of it: for in
the day man eats thereof he shall surely
die.(Gen 2:17).The enemy of life is food. Food
makes you sick; food kills. Food brings about
high blood pressure, diabetes and other forms
of incurable diseases. You complain of
charms, mermaid and bewitchment. These
are not true. You are affected by the food
you eat. You may grow fat but what does it all
mean? Your fatness leads to death. Food is
the sting of death. When you prepare all
forms of diet for yourself, they destroy your
spirit, soul and body.
The Evil Connected With Food
If I should now expatiate on the evils
of food, I will not exhaust the topic for ten
years. But I only want to give an introductory
part of what you call a new doctrine. I have
dealt on this issue on many occasions but you
do not seem to be bothered about it. We are
now staging a go-back to the Garden of Eden.
Have you not heard what had been read out
to you? All the herb bearing seed and all
fruit of a tree yielding seed, shall be your
meat. This does not imply a system of feeding
but a form of medication. Just as one will
seek a cure for an ailment, you can suck one
orange and drink a cup of water and that will
8
serve you for a day. The next day
whenever you feel like taking anything,
you can take just one banana and drink
water and that should satisfy you. That
is how you should live. Take fruits as a
cure for an ailment and not something
you eat sumptuously. There and then
you will feel the pulse and the
invigorating power of God in you. You
will have no pains, no sickness. Age will
not tell much on you, and no problems
will beset you.
All along we have been
gallivanting around, seeking for life. Is
this not the very source of life that we
neglect? That is why we are looking for
a virgin land of our own. There, we will
establish an orchard where we will
plant fruit trees of all types, oranges,
mangoes, banana, guava, pawpaw,
coconut, apple and other fruits. The
fruits should be taken in very small
quantities. There, many will stay
without being hungry. When you take a
little fruit as a cure, that is sufficient for
you. When you look at yourself, you
find that you are very fat and robust,
you will feel it is a sign of good-health.
It is rather poisonous, extra burden,
death, and sickness. When you think
yourself as fat, you do not even realize
that your sicknesses are innumerable.
You complain of pain around your
waist, a strange object moving in your
head. Is it not the food you eat which is
responsible? Is it not the food that you
eat which has constituted this problem?
The Belly Is The God Of The
Gluttonous Person
The body is the house of God
and not the house of food. God did not
make the body for food. Can you see the
last enemy which will be destroyed? In
consonance with the Scriptures, I have
told you often, and now tell you even
weeping, your belly is your god. A local
adage says, whatever tastes palatable in the
mouth of a sick man, that he eats and dies.
You keep trying and trying everything. All
the things you cook to eat kill the spirit and
the life in you. When the Gospel is preached
you cannot even listen. Even when you listen
you cannot assimilate.
There has never been any point in
time when God did not abide on earth with
man. It is food which separates you from
God. The end to food is death and
destruction. Man should neither drink, nor
snuff nor eat any of the things forbidden by
God, because these are poisonous to the body.
It is not given that any one should tamper
with the body by rubbing any ointment on it.
The body belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ.
God polishes and dwells in it. You should not
introduce anything unnatural to the body.
All the things you inject into your body or
rub on your body lead you to destruction.
Your body is the house of God. You ought
not to adulterate it in any way. The only food
for the body is for you to practice the Gospel.
You have heard that in those days
there shall be no more death. (Rev 21:4).
This is only possible on the provision that you
keep the injunctions of God, and avoid
surfeiting and gluttony but concentrate on
eating of fruits. When you just start it, you
will no longer be hungry, neither will you be
sick nor feel weak. There will be no aging.
You will rather always swim in youthfulness.
Man Shall Live By The Words Of God
I am taking you step by step. When
we started fasting, we started from 6 a.m. to 6
p.m., then to one day dry fasting, then to two
days dry fasting, and now to three days. A
time will come when we will fast for four
days, or five days and gradually shall we
progress. When you receive this Gospel, you
will be satisfied, and your problems will all be
solved.
You will recall that Satan went to Our
9
Lord Jesus Christ and told him, if you
are the Son of God command that these
stones be turned into bread. (Matt 4:3)
What did our Lord Jesus Christ reply?
He told Satan that it had been written,
“Man shall not live by bread alone but
by every word that proceeds out of the
mouth of God.”(Luke 4:4) Our Lord
Jesus Christ was referring to this end of
time that the word of God will be the
source of life. You will remember when
the disciples invited Him to eat but He
said, “I have meat that you know not
of.” They began to wonder in their
hearts whether any person had given
Him food. Since He was God, and knew
their hearts, He told them: "My meat is
to do the work of My Father who sent
Me, and to finish it."(John 4:34).
Eternal Life Through The Word Of
God
If you continue to practice the
injunction of loving one another, of
telling no more lies, of not offending
God, how will you become hungry?
You will not thirst. You will neither fall
sick and die, nor grow old. The
Scriptures have it that when the word of
God dwells richly in your heart, you
will have life. If the Word of God
dwells richly in your heart, you will
have everlasting life. This explains why
He declared to His disciples, "I am the
bread which came down from heaven
and whoever eats of me shall never
die." (John 6:51).
You will notice that even here in
Brotherhood, there are some persons
who no longer feel hungry; indeed they
have no appetite for food. As I am
talking to you now, we have somebody,
and what remains for him to do is to
stop drinking water. He only eats one
banana throughout twenty-four hours a
day. We also have many here in Brotherhood
who stay from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily without
any food. After 6 p.m. you find them eating
just one banana and until the next day, they
will have no appetite for any food. We have
yet another group of persons who do not eat
any cooked food. We have one such person at
No. 26, Mbukpa Road, Calabar. It is not for
you to keep coming here, and yet you put
death into your body by eating virtually
everything you find, and at the end when it
backfires as sickness and death, you will want
to complain of your problem as a
Brotherhood member. Have you not heard
that food is death?
God did not make the belly for food.
He created us for Himself as an abode of the
Spirit. He did not create us to fornicate with
a woman or a man. The singular reason why
He created man was to make his abode in
man. When you observe carefully, it is a
common complaint in the world that there
are too many diseases. 99% of the population
of the entire world has sickness. Why is this
so? It is because of the indulgence of man in
what he does not know.
Food Is The Enemy Of Man
People do not understand that this
body had been purchased with the precious
blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and that the
Spirit has come to dwell in it. If the Holy
Spirit dwells in you, you will hunger no more;
you will no longer fall sick nor thirst, nor die.
Indeed, you will not have any problems.
Some may begin to ask,”How can one
survive without food?” Food does not give
life but it rather causes death. The last enemy
is food. The Bible says:"The wages of sin is
death; but the gift of God is eternal life in
Christ Jesus." (Rom 6:23).You can eat and
collapse and die on the spot. But if you
practice the word of God, you will not die.
That last enemy to be destroyed is food. Some
10
people have started to do away with
food in different ways. Many have
stayed throughout the year without
eating any food.
Why Adam Lived For 930 Years
You have heard and read that
Adam lived for 930 years. (Gen 5:5).
How was this possible? At that time
there was no frying, no roasting, no
baking and no cooking as you do today.
He fed on fruits. The same thing
happened to Noah and others who lived
long. Since the introduction of food
other than fruit, we now have a shorter
life-span. The destruction besetting man
issues from food. Right now, you are
preoccupied with the thought of food.
Before coming to worship today, you
had been completely filled with food.
Consider the fact, because
Adam had eaten the forbidden fruit he
was driven out of the Garden of Eden.
In spite of this, he was able to live for
930 years. How did he do it, even
though he had a misunderstanding with
God? When Our Lord Jesus Christ did
not yet come to die for us, people lived
for 200 to 900 years. But today, after He
had shed His Blood, you find people
dying at their youthful ages. Why is
sickness rampant now? Why do you not
question yourself why things should be
so?
Do you realize the facts of the
situation and begin to help yourself?
The whites, you say, have introduced
the use of tea, and you demand for stew.
These are poisonous to the body and
lead to death. Tell me the real truth. Did
you know that the food you eat is
poisonous to your body? It is said,
whatever tastes so delicious in a sick
person's mouth, that he must eat till he
dies. Have I not told you that if you are
destined to die, you cannot fail to eat those
foods which will lead to your death. But those
predestined for eternal life will begin to
comply with the instructions of God. Of all
the food you eat, have you found any in the
Bible except fruits? If there is anyone of you
who is sick or has any problem, and he begins
from today to live as instructed, his sickness,
anger, troubled heart, and troubles will
vanish in no time. You will also begin to hear
the voice of God distinctively. God will
equally respond to your calls.
Wear Not Death As A Garment
Life stands aloof from you when you
put on death as a garment. That is why life
runs away from you. You complain that in
your dream you see graves, apparition and
other dreadful things. Is it not food that has
cost you such scenes. Is it not the poison you
take into your body? I want you to
experiment right from today; everything is by
experimentation. Deny yourself a while of the
so-called good-health and delicious food you
have been eating. Begin to practice this
Gospel bit by bit; and besides your problems
being solved, your eyes will be opened. Let me
tell you that much eating is like taking plenty
of liquor. If you are given to too much eating,
it will do no good to your body system. Just as
you will be drinking and passing urine, so will
you pass out the food you eat as stool and
your belly will return to its former state. It
will not do any good thing for you. The feces
passed by a white man is scanty and small but
a large container will not be enough for a
black man's feces. The situation therefore is
that after eating, you excrete everything and
you become hungry again. Your belly has
become your God.(Phil 3:19). If you stay
without food for sometime, and later in the
evening you take some fruits in the way of
medication, and thereafter you drink a little
water, you will feel the impulse in you. You
will have no problems. The following day you
11
do the same thing and continue in that
manner. After a time you will notice
the revitalizing spirit in you. The Holy
Spirit will enter into you, and your eyes
will be opened.
All the diseases, awful dreams,
and nightmares are brought about by
all sorts of foods that you eat. Brethren,
since I do not want to overload you, the
first lesson will now be read.
First Bible Lesson: 1 Corinthians 15:26
"The last enemy that shall be
destroyed is death."
Brethren, have you heard what
has been read out to you? The last
enemy is food. The Bible has advised
that it should not be because of
surfeiting and much drinking that that
day takes you unawares. All those who
love food abide in death up till today.
All those who love food are the enemies
of the Cross of Christ. The arch enemy
of the Holy Spirit is food. Watch
carefully, once food is brought into this
Hall there will be fighting and
scrambling. Also watch, for when we
are on dry fasting, this Hall will be very
quiet and the Holy Spirit will gently
conduct His affairs without resistance.
He heals your infirmities and takes
away your problems. If there is any
good thing in Brotherhood, it is the dry
fasting. The benefits of Thursday 6 a.m.
to 6 p.m. fasting cannot be over-
emphasized. In the world, you will
clearly see the sign of old age on the
faces of men and women, even your age-
mates now walk with the help of
walking sticks. Here in Brotherhood,
we look very young and we are
regenerated from day to day. Those of
you who had pot-bellies have now been
trimmed to size. Such bellies are signs
of death and not good health.
Sometimes when such persons go to the
hospital, they are declared anemic whereas if
you examine one person in Brotherhood, the
amount of blood in him is enough to sustain
many lives.
Abstinence From Food Will Happen As A
Gradual Process
This issue eludes the worldly wisdom.
This is why we are told that the last enemy to
be destroyed is food. The way to get about it
is what we are telling you. But I am not telling
you to go and start off by starving yourself
immediatly. It is an issue which requires
several gradual and progressive steps. When
you hear and practice the Word of God, God
will take away the spirit of surfeiting from
you. Do you not see why you are told not to
drink, or snuff, or smoke, or indulge in
diabologies or other vices. It is gradual and
when the Word of God takes control of you
that is the end to it.
Do not eat meat. Do not eat fish. Do
not eat anything at all. All those instructions
are the different knots that have to be
tightened one after the other till finally we
arrive at the eating of fruits. If God
instructed Adam to eat of all the fruits of the
trees, and did not tell him to kill an animal or
any other thing for food, and we have various
kinds of fruits these days, even more than
they had in those days, why are you still
stubborn and have chosen death for
yourselves?
Leave The Skin And Hair Untreated With
Chemicals
To the angel whom it was given to
hurt the earth and sea it was said, “Hurt not
the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees.”(Rev
7:3). He knows for certain that the trees were
food. God is changeless in His covenant. He
made fruits for us to eat. The fruits give us
life. These foods are not cooked but are
ready-made. This serves as the body-
12
supporting medicine for your
sustenance.
Do not rub any pomade or
cream on your body. Do not do
anything with you hair. There is no
difference between a man and a woman.
Do not perm or do anything with your
hair. This is the instruction from God.
Anything other than this is destruction.
All the ointments you rub are
chemicals. They destroy your body
which is the body of Our Lord Jesus
Christ. Whatever you are forbidden
from doing is for your own good. If you
fail to comply, you have only yourself to
blame. David wanted to build a temple
for God but God told him not to build
because his hands were not clean. (2
Sam 11:12-17). For this reason, David
gave up the attempt. Although he had
money, building materials, and could
build the temple, he had to obey God.
The owner of the temple tells you that
he does not want cream or ointment
rubbed on his house, but you still insist
on doing what he forbids.
The Holy Spirit Has Arrived
The Holy Spirit wants you to eat
fruits. He does not delight in much
food. Since your body is His, you have
to purify it. The Holy Spirit does not
require the taking of drugs or enema or
anything into your body. All you need
to do is to purify the temple because He
has come to dwell with man. When the
Holy Spirit enters into your body your
condition can be likened to that of a
pregnant woman. You will notice how
selective the pregnant woman is. It is
not the pregnant woman who is
selective but the child in her womb,
which is the spirit she carries, who
makes the selection. Some will demand
for water, some for groundnuts.
Sometimes they demand for many other
things, (hence the various craving of the
pregnant woman). The Holy Spirit behaves
that way. He directs you on what to do.
Right now the world does not know
that He has come. But we have known that
he has arrived and it is for this reason that we
celebrate the reception of the Holy Spirit. He
comes with the intention to dwell in His
house. Our bodies are His abode. When a
person builds a house, he has the right to live
in his house. He shed his precious blood to
wash away our sins so that He can make His
house clean enough to inhabit. Now that He
has come to dwell in His house, surrender the
house to the owner. Some other person's
property is a likely source of trouble. If by
the time the owner of a house traveled and
you had occupied and used his house as you
liked, when you hear about his arrival, you
have to sweep his house clean before you
hand it over to him, to avoid trouble.
To Please God, Avoid Drinking :
This is our duty, go and preach to the
people of the world about the arrival of the
Holy Spirit and His requirements. That is
why you are instructed not to drink or
fornicate. Comply yourself with the
instructions of God. All types of liquor,
whether it be a whisky, or beer or mineral
(soft drinks or soda), all of them are
poisonous. None of these is good for the
human body. Snuff, cigarettes, cigar mean
death. All forms of injection, syrup, tablets,
capsules are poisonous and deadly. All kinds
of pomade, cream, perfume ointment are
death. Costly clothings are death. Dress in a
very decent and simple manner, and that is
good enough. Right now, what He requires
from us is the white apparel. He has made
the choice for us. You do not own yourself.
He who owns us has chosen what He wants
for us. He had promised that He will give you
the white raiment which you will put on and
13
walk with Him (Rev 14:4).
This is the time that we should listen to
the Spirit.
Your fathers lived the way they
did when they did not yet believe. But
now that the Holy Spirit is leading you
to the accurate wisdom of the truth,
why are you obdurate and recalcitrant?
Observe how sickness, death,
punishment and tribulation are
besetting man. If you now go to the
hospital, there are no drugs. If you take
enema, it does not work. The prayers
you offer do not work. Nothing tends to
work again these days. When you are
told this truth, the church
denominations will rise to challenge that
whoever tells you not to take injection
or syrup is a killer. You who were here
in the morning heard the testimony of
that chief medical consultant; he does
not take any form of medication again.
He is a great physician but he suffered
from heart attack and hypertension
which caused him to consult from one
specialist hospital to the other but no
cure was provided him. But on his
getting baptized here in May 1986, all
his sicknesses were completely healed. I
am saying this to your shame. He, as a
great physician, no longer takes
injection or swallows any tablet or
capsule, nor drinks any liquid, but if
you go to him, he will administer
injection on you. This development
induced his wife who hails from one of
the communist countries to demand for
baptism. She observed that the
husband no longer complained of his
heart pains and hypertension, and did
not take any medical treatment but only
took the holy oil.
The Testimony Of A Chief Judge
This doctor also introduced a
chief Judge to Brotherhood. Somebody first
recommended that doctor to the chief Judge
as the only great physician who would be able
to help him. But the doctor examined the
urine and stool of the Chief Judge and could
find nothing, yet the man was dying of pain.
When the chief Judge asked for what he
should do in order to get well, the doctor told
him that since he could not diagnose, no
prescriptions could be given. The doctor told
the chief Judge that in the face of the critical
condition, he would take the man to Calabar
where his infirmities would be healed. You
also heard the testimony of the chief Judge
who was baptized on the 9th of January, 1987
and since then he no longer takes any form of
medication. His illness is completely cured.
Do you not know that all the time we
go in for medical check-ups, receive injections
and tablets, we have taken poison into our
bodies and we have taken death into our
systems. Many Brotherhood members who
die, die in the hospital. When you go to the
hospital, take drugs and die, your blood will
be upon you. God does not compel any
person to do anything against his will. As I
am telling you, so do I tell all the inhabitants
of the world that they should no longer take
tablets, injections, and syrup. Check your
food and be very careful of what you eat. Eat
fruits. Fruits are considerably cheaper here
in Africa. We are going to establish orchards
and plant citrus fruits. You can eat just one
banana or suck one orange and drink water
and the medicinal effect will heal you. The
only food that is blessed by God is fruit. But
anything else you prepare for yourselves as
food is poisonous.
The Other Meaning Of Fornication
What is referred to as lust or
fornication does not always imply going to lie
down with a man or woman. It refers also to
being excessive in anything you take. If for
instance you drink water more than
necessary, you have committed fornication.
14
When you prepare for yourselves a
basin full of gari and consume it all
alone, you have committed fornication.
Whatever you have to take, should be in
a very small quantity because it is
simply medicinal. You can do with one
banana daily. Even so, you can still skip
some days. In this way you will feel the
pulse in you. God lives within you. He
guides us, and He has everything. We
will neither fall sick, nor have
nightmares, nor be angry and there will
be no problems. God would not leave
us at any point.
Do you think that it had been
the mind of God that Adam and Eve
should ever continue to feed on fruits?
If they had continued to assimilate the
Word of God, they would, at a later
time, not be hungry again. What God
did with them was like somebody
starting an infant class. It was for that
stage that they were taught to eat fruits.
This was only the initial stage. They
would have eaten fruits and progressed
on to the time the word of God would
begin to take hold of them and fill
them. When the Word of God dwells
richly in your heart, you will neither
hunger nor thirst.
Take Fruit In Small Quantities
How will you not die as long as
you continue to fill your body with mud
and poison. Instead of facing the fact
before you, you point accusing fingers
on to mermaid, juju, witchery,
apparition, and charm. Is the charm
kept for you or the food you are eating
which is responsible for your
conditions? Some of you are simply
gluttonous. Before attending this
Sermon, you have taken up to ten
courses of various dishes.
In the past, you were like sheep
without a shepherd. But now a shepherd has
come from the highest heaven to pour his
instruction on all mankind. Plant groundnuts,
pineapples, oranges, pawpaw, sugarcane and
many other fruits. When you feel like taking
something, you can take a little fruit and not
too much of it.
“If we should examine ourselves, God
would not judge us but when he judges us, he
chastises us that He may not condemn us with
the people of the world.”(1 Cor 11:31-32).
Let our second lesson be read.
Second Bible Lesson:
1 Corinthians 6:13
"Meats for the belly, and belly for
meats: but God shall destroy both it and
them. Now the body is not for fornication,
but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body."
God did not make this body for
fornication. Whenever any person passes by,
you call on her or make moves to confront
him ( in the case of a man ). God made the
human body for himself. God dwells in the
human body. He does not dwell in houses
built by man. Hand over the house to the
owner. The owner of the house says he does
not want those wretched things. Why do you
continue to introduce all such things into the
house? Does the house belong to you?
Constant Abstinence From Food
I know that a great many people in
Brotherhood do not even fast on Thursdays.
I know also that many a Brotherhood
member would not eat for a week. They
chose to go on dry fasting and they feel well
and good. The living God converses
distinctively with them and they hear the still
small voice. Some people stay up to two
weeks without food and they feel very strong
and healthy. This Gospel strengthens their
faith that they should continue in that
manner. It is also an encouragement to those
15
who have not yet done so since the
common complaint had always been
that the Father has been silent over the
issue. The Father has now openly
announced that you should no longer
rub any cream since it amounts to
adulteration of your body. The body is
no longer ours. We had been bought
with a price, THE BLOOD OF
CHRIST. No person has a right over
his body. It is only Our Lord Jesus
Christ who has the right over every
person. We have to hearken to the
instructions of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Are We Ready To Admit Him Into His
House?
We are that house, we are the
city, we are the field. It is said, Except
the Lord build the house, they labor in
vain that build it: except the Lord
keeps the city, the watchman waketh
but in vain.(Ps. 127:1) If God does not
protect you, can you ever protect
yourself? If God does not demolish us,
removing from us all kinds of
infirmities and encumbrances, and if
God does not rebuild us for his
habitation, who else can rebuild us? He
has come to change us and rebuild us.
The heart that had been damaged, and
other parts that were dysfunctional, he
has come to reconstruct and regenerate
us so that we may have a share in the
Kingdom of God.
How will the person who eats
foo-foo, yam porridge, chin-chin, eggs
and other things be pure in the flesh?
The man who eats meat, fish, and
drinks tea, wine, and takes snuff, how
will he be pure in flesh and in the spirit?
It is said, if the owner of the house had
known when the thieves would come, he
would have kept watch. (Matt 24:43).
You better keep watch because 1999 is
fast approaching. Those who are not here
present do hear this instruction as well,
because I am declaring from the highest
heaven. Fishes in the water, animals in the
forest, birds of the air are all preparing to see
the glory of this Kingdom and what it will
come to be.
What does it all mean when you say
God helps those who help themselves? As
long as you live the life he wants, concerning
the food you eat, right from today that you
have heard this Gospel, try to put it into
practice. When you try to practice it, you will
notice a remarkable change in your life.
Anger will subside. Food causes you to be
angry. Food is made up of various kinds of
spirit which do not match with your body
constitution.
Bodily Adornments
It is said that there is neither male nor
female (Gal.3:28). Our Lord Jesus Christ is
all and in all (Col.3:11). We all have to
maintain low hair cuts, men and women
alike. Do not wear any necklace, do not put
on any earrings, and do not paint any part of
your body. All such things are abominable,
they are works of death, and signs of death.
We have a piece of land where we are going
to build Our City. You will not enter this city
with any earring, or shoes, neither will you go
in with any hair-do. Fruit is the only food to
be eaten in the city. If you are unable to do
away with all these propensities, it will be
impossible for you to enter. You may claim,
to be Obu's child, or you have been a member
of Brotherhood for twenty years, I am saying
that even if you have been a member for one
hundred years, the hair you are plaiting, the
necklaces and bangles you wear, the cream
you rub disqualify you. I will tell you, get you
behind me. However you will operate as a
Brotherhood member in Calabar or Lagos or
in any other place. How will the City be
conducive for you when there is neither wine,
16
nor fornication, nor the kinds of food
you eat? How will you survive in it?
Excessive eating is not accepted there.
Even the available fruits will be
rationed to every person. If you do not
get prepared now, it means the place
will not be congenial for your living and
you will not be there.
As I am telling you, it is said,
whatever is bound here on earth, is
bound in heaven (Matt 18:18). It is also
said, let thy Kingdom come, thy will be
done on earth as it is done in heaven. It
is what is done in heaven that is also
going to be done on earth.(Matt 6:10).
Those who long for this city are making
their preparations now. But I warn that
you should not be like the five foolish
virgins who did not go with their
kerosene. (Matt 25:3). The issue does
not call for pleading with God to forgive
you. Once you are unable to resist and
overcome death, death will overcome
you.
Food Is Man's Enemy
Because of his recalcitrance,
Moses was shown to the promised land
but he did not enter. My duty and
yours is to war against food. Your
enemy is food. You complain you are
irate, easily irritated, quarrelsome; that
evil spirits torment you. Food is the
source of your problems. Food leads to
evil spirits, nightmares and the anger
you find in your system. Do not
broadcast your intentions. When you
return today begin to practice this
Gospel. Stay on your own and leave
food alone. You will not be hungry.
Preach and practice the Word of God.
Listen to the Word of God and carry
out God's injunctions. In this way you
will not feel hungry. When you have
the desire to eat, take just one banana
and drink water. Within one week, you
will see that you will be a completely different
person. Sickness, and other evil spirits will
disappear.
By Means Of Fruits God Rejuvenates You
I had already told you that I do not
want these electric fans. They are chemical
products which are poisonous, to the body. I
do not also want anything from the
refrigerator. I do not want any cold water, it
contains chemical and is, therefore, poisonous
drug. I have told you publicly but you would
not hear. What I am preaching to you is
about myself. Compare your bodies with
mine and notice who looks younger and
fresher. If the Father's age is mentioned,
many people will be bamboozled. Yet, in the
next twenty years He will be younger than He
is today. You have adulterated your body
with perfume, ointment and cream, your hair
is poisoned and now you look old and
wretched . But day after day, out of His love
God tries to rejuvenate, regenerate and
reconstruct you, but you are at the same time
dragging yourselves into mud again.
You are calling upon the Holy Spirit
to come to your aid but you have adulterated
your body and because of the repugnant and
obnoxious odor fuming from your body, He
stays afar and will not come close. How will
he come and save you. He alone can heal us.
There is nothing impossible with him. If we
surrender ourselves to him, there is nothing
which he cannot do for us.
When he wants to demolish us in
order to reconstruct and rebuild us again, we
misconstrue his activities and we are carried
to the hospital for treatment, during which
period we are given injection and tablet. The
last thing is for us to die. In spirit, the grades
of doctors, surgeons, paramedical staff and
nurses we have in this Kingdom, the type of
injections and tablets, and the stock of drugs
we have, if your eyes were open to behold the
hospital set up here, you would see yourself
17
clearly as the most foolish man to attend
a carnal hospital. Each and every one
of us has a body guard and an escort.
All of us undergo medical check-ups by
our attendant doctors. There are some
staying by you, keeping watch over you
to treat anything that affects you. This
is for everybody. Right now that you
are here, food is served. This explains
why you are not always hungry. That is
why, if you were to hear the instructions
of God, you would have enjoyed this
Kingdom more than what is happening
now.
Holy Spirit, The Greatest Physician
God thinks about us much more
than we think of ourselves. You go to
the hospital. Have you seen the Leader
going to the hospital? That has always
been your problem. You have been
going to the hospital all your life but
what good has it done for you? The
leader has never gone to any hospital. I
have no business with medication. You
often complain that the Leader has not
taught you. When did you see the
Leader taking drugs? I do not even
keep them, nor do I consult any type of
physician.
Right now, if you are partly
blind, it is because of the poison you
take in. But if you eat the kind of food
prescribed for you, and comply with the
Word of God, your good sight will be
restored to you. Let the Holy Spirit
gain entrance into you. The heart and
blood that are not good, when the Holy
Spirit gains entrance into the house and
starts His work, He will change things
for the better. During the process of
change, even when injection is
ministered, do not complain. If he is
treating a stomach problem do not be
worried. He is the owner of the house.
When he completes His Work, you will
become younger and younger.
When the Leader says that in ten
years time He will be younger than He is
today, people begin to wonder whether the
man will be alive for that long. The enemies
will fidget that they are done for. They do
not wish that the Father should live that long,
so that they may have room to operate as they
wish in the world. But I am saying that in the
next twenty years, I will be younger than this.
What I am telling you does not
require any money. It calls for the
mortification of the flesh to enable the spirit
to triumph. Why you look for food, woman,
and wealth is because of the evil spirit in you
which comes from the food you eat. If you
refrain from eating the kind of food you have
been eating and concentrate your attention
on eating fruits, and the purification of your
body, no evil thoughts will come into you.
You will be in a completely different world.
Do you know that food is Satan? Do
you know that food is the evil spirit and
death? At present, what are your thoughts
filled with? ... What will I eat, what will I put
on, what will I drink? You are enslaved by
these tendencies. You beat up your wife
because of food. You divorce your husband
because of food. You beat your child because
of food. You deny your father because of
food. But it is said that food does not
recommend a person before God and if one
does not eat it does not disapprove a man
before God. Food is nothing at all. Clothing
is nothing at all. Perfumes and creams are
useless before God. Only the Word of God
can put you in a good position before God.
You have been feeling that if you go to
somebody's house and he serves you with
various dishes and assorted kinds of drinks
that the person loves you dearly. I am telling
you that he is the person who hates you the
most, apart from him also being an enemy of
God. Brethren, I do not want to belabor you.
Let our Golden Text be read.
18
Golden Text: Philippians 3:18-19
"For many walk, of whom I
have told you often, and now tell you
even weeping, that they are the enemies
of the cross of Christ: Whose end is
destruction, whose God is their belly,
and whose glory is in their shame, who
mind earthly things."
Brethren, ponder over this
situation. If from today you no longer
put your heart in the things of this
world, would you have the cause to
quarrel with any person? If you do not
bother about clothes, shoes, food, bed,
house, and any kind of material things,
will you quarrel with any person?
The Leader Preaches Himself
I had already told you, that
when first I arrived in Calabar, the first
pot of soup I prepared cost only one
penny. After preparing the soup, I used
it for eight days. I was taking half a cup
of gari for every twenty four hours.
And I had no problem. I had no
problems with anybody. My clothing
comprised a simple pant, a sleeveless
singlet. I went about with it to every
place I had to go. I am preaching about
myself and not about any other person.
The most costly apparel I bought was a
pair of pants costing fivepence and a
sleeveless singlet I bought at one shilling
and threepence. When you complain
every time that you are looking for this
or you want to eat the other, I have
never lusted after anything. All these
things do not interest me. No matter
what you eat, I am not bothered. By this
Sermon, I am preaching myself. Food is
nothing to me, cloth is nothing to me,
house is nothing to me. In fact, all the
things you can think of in the world
have no place in my thought. I am
preaching about myself. I have seen that you
are not yet mature for this life, that is why I
give you this gospel in bits and pieces. This
Gospel tells you how to live a pure and
natural life. I am preaching myself since I am
a born vegetarian. You cannot lead a man to
a city you have never visited because you
cannot give any person the exact description
of such a city. But this city I am telling you
about is where I come from. It is a city which
knows nothing about all surfeiting and lust.
Have you ever seen me growing fat and
robust? For ages, my size remains the same.
Some of you come here with swollen cheeks.
You are given to too much eating and your
belly is death. Is the content of your cheeks
not evil?
The Leader's Food Is The Word Of God
Many people ask what the Father eats
and when he eats. This is my food. I feed on
the Word of God. From time immemorial,
my food has always been the Word of God. If
you practice the Word of God, you have no
problems. If you preach the Word of God
and take delight in listening to the Word of
God, you have no problem. The irony of it all
is that if you feed fat, you will no longer hear
the Word of God. You will become an enemy
of the Word of God. When the word of God
is preached, you will not even hear. That is
why our Brother Paul said, that they are
enemies of the cross of Christ, of what I have
told you often and now tell you even weeping,
whose God is their belly. (Phil.3:19).
Our Lord Jesus Christ had earlier
warned, "Labor not for the meat that
perishes but labor for the meat that will
endure for ever which the Son of man shall
give.” (John 6:27). As I observe, you are
those laboring for the food that perishes.
When feast is shared you will collect for
yourself many plates of rice and call for
Afiong or Etim to give you more plates. That
means, this is what has brought you here.
You think of no other thing but to fight for
19
food. The same thing you do with
money, and position. No person seeks
for eternal life.
How will the words spoken by
Our Lord Jesus Christ be fulfilled in
you? He says: "Thou hast a few names
even in Sardis which have not defiled
their garments; and they shall walk
with me in white: for they are worthy."
(Rev 3:4). But right now is your
garment clean? Is your body pure and
undefiled? The white garment
promised you, if you are undefiled, is
that spirit. Brethren, you cannot show
the expression of love. The Holy Spirit is
Love. You cannot speak the truth. The
Holy Spirit is the truth. He is
righteousness. Except you purify
yourself, for the Holy Spirit to indwell
and start working, even if you stay here
for one hundred years you cannot do
any good thing. The Holy Spirit is
God's embodiment.
No Evil Resides In God
Be you pure even as I am pure,
no evil resides with me. No good thing
resides in man. Man is like a cage.
That is why no matter how much one
tries to be patient, he cannot. Do not
even waste your time struggling to
possess any virtue of God. It is not
given to any one. When you see a
person showing the expression of love,
do not commend the person. It is God
who shows the expression of love. Do
not commend a person for having faith,
or patience, because it is God who has
all the virtues.
This explains why Paul said,
"For the good that I would I do not: but
the evil which I would not, that I do.
Now if I do that I would not, it is not I
that do it, but the sin that dwelleth in
me." (Rom 7:19-20)
 It had been said, "But the Comforter,
which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father will
send in My Name, he shall teach you all
things."(John 14:26). Have you not realized
that the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit now
teaches you? The medical doctor does not
know that all the drugs he uses in the hospital
are poisonous. All food technologists,
dieticians, cooks, and stewards do not know
that the food they prepare are poisonous to
the human body, and that they kill. Do you
not realize how you prepare food? You cook,
fry, bake, roast and destroy the content and
the life. If you were to eat food in their
natural state, banana, orange, mango,
pineapples, you would have life abundantly in
you.
I do not want to repeat myself. A local
adage says, when you are verbose, your
words are not useful to the people. I am sure
that this year you will assimilate, and live by
these words, and you will have life.
A stroke of the cane is sufficient unto
the wise. Those who have ears, let them hear.
May God bless His Holy Words. A-men.

FATHER'S ALTER BRIEFS
ON VEGETARIANISM
20
READ ISAIAH 55:2
"Why spend money on what does not
satisfy? why spend your wages and still
be hungry? Listen to me and do what I
say and enjoy the best food of all."
DANIEL 1:8
But Daniel resolved not to defile himself
with the royal food and wine and he
asked the Chief official for permission
not to defile himself this way."
DANIEL 1:15-16
"At the end of the ten days they looked
healthier and better nourished than any
of the young men who ate the royal
food. So the guard took away their
choice food, (royal food) and the wine
they were to drink and gave them
VEGETABLES instead."
DANIEL 120
"In every matter of wisdom and
understanding about what the King
questioned them, he found them ten
times better than all the magicians and
enchanters in his whole kingdom."
Brethren, consider the Bible portions
read out to you and also consider
Brotherhood whose foundation is Love.
Now Love is the sum total of the Ten
Commandments given to Moses for the
Children of Israel.
"THOU SHALT NOT KILL." How
complete is that love which is the sum
total of the Ten Commandments, if
Murder (Killing) is not included? One
of the Ten commandments says is:
THOU SHALT NOT KILL?
Brotherhood is Universal Love. This
universal love forms the garden of Eden
where man and all of God's creation
were living together without fear or
harm. If you kill or shed any blood the
love you practice is not perfect love. Up
till now you are seeing things in half and
half because of your obscured vision.
You are unable to see beyond your nose and
that is why you run for visions and
prophesies: that is why your love is not
perfect love. This is because perfect love casts
away fears. You run when a small snake
appears, you panic at the noise of certain
birds in the night. You seek for assistance of a
necromancer when a vulture lands on the
roof of your house. Many of you shake when
even the chaff is blown by the wind.
If you want your spiritual horizon to be
enhanced or if you want your vision to be as
clear as daylight, then, STOP EATING
MEAT AND FISH. Blood is thicker than
water, and blood diffusion or blood
contaminations (animal blood) are the cause
of the most dreaded disease in the human
body. The type of original food prescribed for
man by God is found in GENESIS 1:29
"THEN GOD SAID, I GIVE YOU EVERY
SEED BEARING PLANT ON THE FACE
OF THE WHOLE EARTH AND EVERY
TREE THAT HAS FRUIT WITH SEED IN
IT. THEY WILL BE YOURS FOR FOOD."
1 CORINTHIANS 15:50 I DECLARE TO
YOU BROTHERS THAT FLESH AND
BLOOD CANNOT INHERIT THE
KINGDOM OF GOD."
MATTHEW 6:31 "SEEK YE FIRST THE
KINGDOM OF GOD AND ITS
RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND ALL OTHER
THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU."
Brotherhood is the kingdom where
righteousness dwells. Do you seek this
kingdom in your eating habits? Does your
behavior show that you are seeking this
Kingdom? Every community has its own
language. Do you seek this kingdom in the
way you speak, or do you even use the
language of the kingdom in your speech? In
what ways are you part and parcel of the
Kingdom of God? Read Matthew 8:12. There
is no slaughter house in the Kingdom of
God. THERE IS NO M EAT OR FISH M ARKET
21
IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD, NOTHING
DETESTABLE IS TAKEN AS FOOD. Read
LEVITICUS 11:41-45.
When God created everything, He
saw that all His hand made was good
and perfect. Every living body is a
temple of God; a vessel for either glory
or dishonor. All living creatures are the
lower temples and anyone who destroys
the temple of God, him God will
destroy; because the temple of God is
Holy and the temple you are. God's
instruction to Adam was that he should
eat of the fruit of the land and must not
destroy the land; that is everything in
the land. ROMANS 14:20-21 Have
many people not lost their lives because
of eating meat and fish and drinking?
In any ceremony, people go there not
just to eat the food but to eat the meat
and also drink. Even if food is presented
without meat, they will curse the master
of ceremonies and they will abandon the
food there. 1 Corinthians 8:13 Brethren,
if money is the root of all evil, then the
eating of meat and fish is the root of all
sins which lead to death. All the wild
traits found in human behavior are the
result of eating animals which have such
wild traits in them: anger, hatred,
murder, inordinate lust for sex, even
with your wife, and the indiscriminate
sex life of sexual indiscretion,
medication, etc.
Do you not know that the practice of
vegetarianism is the antidote for any
immune deficiency in the body? It is
also good for the overall good health at all
times.
If then you cannot abstain yourself from the
eating of meat and fish then put your self into
fervent prayer. THIS IS THE
PRESCRIPTION FOR THE NEW WORLD
EATING HABIT, COME JANUARY 1ST.
1995. THIS IS FOR EVERYBODY,
INCLUDING ALL THE NEW-COMERS
INTO BROTHERHOOD, RIGHT FROM
THE DAY A PERSON IS BAPTIZED.
HENCEFORTH EVERYBODY SHALL
ABIDE BY GOD'S INJUNCTIONS. After
Reading Romans 9:6-8 then you will have
nobody to blame for your fate.
When you expatiate on this text, you will
realize whether you are among the sheep or
among the goats. The children of God have
no problem of practicing God's injunctions
for they are of God's Family and these virtues
are traditional in the family of God. You
cannot force yourself into the family of God if
your name was not written there or if you
were not from God's family.
Those who have ears to hear, let them
hear, and may God bless the reading of His
Holy words. Amen.
THANK YOU FATHER.
THE EVILS OF FLESH
EATING
22
(Excerpt from the Gospel
on Vegetarianism)
You do not know what harm the
eating of flesh does to your body. It is
true that if you do not go to a city, you
cannot know what is in that city. If a
true vegetarian gives you his testimony,
you will know that all you eat as meat
are poisonous drugs to the body.
MANY PEOPLE DRINK
MILK. IF YOU SAY YOU ARE A
TRUE VEGETARIAN AND YOU
CONTINUE TO DRINK MILK, YOU
SHOULD NOTE THAT MILK IS THE
PRODUCT OF AN ANIMAL,
THEREFORE YOU ARE NOT A
VEGETARIAN. OTHERS ARE
EATING EGGS. WHEN YOU EAT
EGGS YOU ARE NOT A
VEGETARIAN. WHEN YOU GO TO
GENESIS 1:29,THE TYPE OF FOOD
YOU SHOULD EAT HAS BEEN
PRESCRIBED FOR YOU. Do not add
to it. If you add anything, your
punishment will be added. If you
remove anything, your name is removed
from the book of life.
God will preserve your life till
you see Brotherhood in its true
perspective. Orchards containing all
fruits will be planted for our food. For
God said, "Behold, I have given you
every herb bearing seed and every tree
in which is the fruit of a tree bearing
seed, to you it shall be for meat."
Coconuts, palm fruits, plantains,
banana, paw-paw, pears are your food.
If after hearing this word, your eyes are
opened and you begin to plant these
fruits, you will have no problems.
Vegetarianism does not mean that you
have to stay hungry. It enhances your
spirituality and it is at that time that
you get closer to God. Your eyes will be GOD ALONE STILL CONTROLS

persons know this. But the Father alone

There are many children who when
they come into the world they have no need

their parents to get involved in marriage. And
right from the day they are involved in
marriage all sorts of problems, afflictions and
tribulations begin to come to them.
A great many of them do not believe
in any form of medication but when they are
born, you introduce them to these acts. Some
of you hang protective charms around their
waists, necks, etc. Even while in the womb,
you continue to adopt unnecessary protective
measures. By these acts, you help defile the
baby.

SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE
21:32-37
“Verily, I say unto you, this
generation shall not pass away, until all
be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass
away, but my words shall not pass
away. And take heed to yourselves, lest
at any time, your hearts be overcharged
with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and
cares of this life, and so that day come
upon you unawares. For as a snare shall
it come on all them that dwell on the
face of the whole earth. Watch ye
therefore, and pray always, that ye may
be accounted worthy to escape all these
thing that shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of Man. And in the
day time, he was teaching in the temple,
and at night he went out, and abode in
the mount that is called mount of
Olives.”

GOLDEN TEXT:
PATHWAY TO HEALTH 1 CORINTHIANS 15: 51-57
“Behold I show you a mystery;

24
we shall not all sleep, but we shall be changed,
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the
last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and
the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we
shall be changed. For this corruptible must
put on incorruption, and this mortal shall
have put on immortality. So when this
corruptible shall have put on incorruption,
and this mortal shall have put on
immortality, then shall be brought to pass the
saying that is written, Death is swallowed up
in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O
grave, where is thy victory? The sting of
death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the
victory through Our Lord Jesus Christ.
THE FINAL ADMONITION:
Brethren, this gospel deserves your entire
attention. Take note particularly of this
gospel and go ahead and disseminate it to
every man. No man shall be excused for his
misdeeds.
SPIRITUAL CHORUS:
EARTHLY THINGS SHALL CEASE BUT
WHAT IS MY FATHER'S SHALL
ENDURE FOREVER.
I am imparting these words to you in
grief and with tears because of your
disobedience, and also because of your
gluttony and greed for materialism. Many
burst into laughter when I preach about
fasting, abstinence from eating meat and fish
and drinking. They tell you in defense that it
is God who created meat and fish for human
consumption and gave man the idea to brew
wine. Many also consider it an impossibility
to fast for even an hour. Note that any one
who perishes, his blood will be upon his head.
This is the final advice and warning for the
entire world. To be forewarned is to be
forearmed.
It has been prophesied that there will be
three days of darkness on earth. The trumpet
25
shall sound and the Holy Spirit
descends. Every man shall be affected,
likewise, every being in heaven and on
earth. If you are caught up while eating,
drinking, fornicating or engaging in any
evil act, would you be spared, or would
you wake up? The darkness shall be
caused by God Himself. Heaven and
earth, you have been told shall pass
away, but not one jot of the word of
God shall pass away without being
fulfilled. This explains why the words I
preach to you center on abstinence from
gluttony, drinking, fornication, deceit,
and every manner of sin.
He says,"Be ye holy as I am holy for no
evil abides with me." The time is far
spent; in fact, it is much closer than the
tongue is to the teeth. It could happen
any moment from now. I have led you
to the knowledge of truth. Any
therefore who perishes, his blood will
upon his head. Let us re-examine the
First Lesson.
FIRST BIBLE LESSON:
PHILIPPIANS 3:18-21
“For many walk of whom I have
told you often, and now tell you even
weeping, that they are the enemies of
the Cross of Christ: Whose end is
destruction, whose God is their belly,
and whose glory is in their shame, who
mind earthly things. For our
conversation is in heaven, from whence
also we look for the Savior, the Lord
Jesus Christ, who shall change our vile
body, that it may be fashioned like unto
his glorious body, according to the
working whereby he is able even to
subdue all things unto himself.”
DETERMINANTS OF
CONDEMNATION:
 That is the Lord's promise. His second
coming will be to change all those who are
earnestly awaiting His coming. He will
change us to His spiritual body wherewith we
shall live life everlasting. Such persons shall
never be sick or be afflicted in any way. Any
who is found being corrupt, drinking,
smoking, snuffing and being generally
disobedient shall have no place in the
kingdom of God.
What will cause many to be destroyed
is food and other evil acts men indulge in. But
whatever the number of persons that will be
found worthy, whether five or one hundred
or more, the same shall be saved. God has
spoken in Genesis 1:26-29, saying: “And God
said, Let us make man in our image, after our
likeness and let them have dominion over the
fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air,
and over the cattle, and over all the earth,
and over every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth. So God created man in his
own image, in the image of God created them.
And God blessed them, and God said unto
them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish
the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion
over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of
the air, and over every living thing that
moveth upon the earth. And God said,
Behold, I have given you every herb bearing
seed, which is upon the face of all the earth,
and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a
tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
THE VERDICT ON THE DISOBEDIENT:
That is man's food as designated by
God. This is to provide a holy place of abode
for Himself in man. He has come in this last
era to collect those who have earnestly been
waiting for Him. Any, therefore, who
continues to be given to drinks, food, money,
and other material things shall perish. I
WOULD HAVE PREACHED THIS
GOSPEL IN THE 18TH AND 19TH
CENTURIES. I am warning you now because
26
the time is far spent and the end is so
near. Those who continue to steal,
drink, smoke, kill, tell lies, eat flesh and
indulge in other abominable acts have
damnation as their ultimate
recompense. Those are the anti-Christs
who are doomed. I am making these
declarations to your shame. We have no
passion for the things of this earth. Our
interest lies in the things of heaven. We
are looking unto God. The time is nigh
for any man to stop being carnally
minded. There is time for everything.
Now is the time for us to be ready for
Him. No sinner shall live, even for a
minute.
GLUTTONY:THE BANE OF
MANKIND
Those whose God is food shall
perish also. Many have used food to
pollute their bodies so much that God
has no place to abide in them. The
gluttons eat a lot and develop pot bellies
while others are obese. Where would
God abide in such a body? MAN IS
THE TEMPLE OF GOD AND
WHOEVER POLLUTES OR
DEFILES THE TEMPLE, HE SHALL
PERISH. GOD IS HERE TO ABIDE
WITH MEN. HE HAS COME TO
CHANGE US TO HIS IMAGE, SO
THAT WE WILL LIVE WITH HIM
FOREVER.
God advices us for our own
good. Only the children of perdition
shall be doomed. These are the gluttons,
the drunkards, smokers, and the
carnally minded. Everything He had
spoken shall come to pass. No glutton
loves God. All those who are carnally
minded are doomed and they have no
share in this kingdom. Look up! Look
unto Christ the Savior.
John had spoken that the one that sent
him asked him to baptize with water, and also
told him that any upon whom the Holy Spirit
shall descend, the same shall baptize with the
Holy Spirit. John himself confessed he bore
witness about Him and that He is the Son of
God. The Holy Spirit is now on earth and He
will change us all to be worthy of Him.
FIRST WITNESS: LUKE 5: 35-38
“But the days will come, when the
bridegroom shall be taken away from them,
and then shall they fast in those days. And he
spoke also a parable unto them; No man
putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old;
if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent,
and the piece that was taken out of the new
agreeth not with the old. And no man putteth
new wine into old bottles; else the new wine
will burst the bottle, and be spilled, and the
bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put
into new wine bottles, and both are
preserved.”
THE CAUSE OF DEATH:
The above highlights the problems
plaguing the entire world- the blacks, whites,
and coloreds. It is the source of death. The
Holy Spirit has been denied access into His
temple.
JESUS' LOVE FOR ME IS BEYOND
HUMAN COMPREHENSION:
It is not common to find a true white
man being obese. Their men and women are
smart and agile because they are mindful of
what they eat. A black man needs to be pitied.
He kills himself with food, but he will blame
witchcraft, juju, apparition and other
non-existent things for his plight.
The last days of this century are numbered.
The Holy Spirit is on earth and finally in
control. The other denominations do not have
the least bit of this wisdom. The Catholic is
empty. When the battle is fierce, it is said, the
king takes over command. If God had not
27
come by Himself, it would be practically
impossible to ask somebody to fast
without having your head chopped off.
Brethren, God's love is so great. If it
were not so, the world would have
perished, because of the mundane
things we care so much for, especially,
food. A man will not hesitate to kill his
fellow man because of food. But for the
Children of God, it is not so. We are
waiting for Christ. As He comes and
finds us ready and earnestly waiting for
Him, He changes us unto Himself. For
such persons, there is no death, no
sickness, no hunger, and no problem at
all. Even if you are being shot at, you
will not be harmed.
Our fortitude is in the Lord. Those who
abide in the flesh cannot stand any
stress and they are easily swept off by
the wind. But those who abide in spirit
are resilient and undaunted.
THE ROAD TO SALVATION:
BY THIS GOSPEL THEREFORE,
FRUITARIANS SHALL FLOURISH
ON EARTH.
It is not dependent on regular
church attendance, or acquisition of
chains of degrees, nor does it admit of
prayerfulness. WHAT IS IMPORTANT
IS MORTIFYING THE FLESH AND
KEEPING GOD'S TEMPLE CLEAN.
When people sought to prepare a table
for the Lord, He forbade them and told
them that He had food that they knew
not of. His meat, He added, was to do
His Father's work and to love Him.
That is how He desires we should be. He
has come to transform us and indwell
us.
PREREQUISITE FOR LONGEVITY:
Adam lived for 930 years. Today if a
man is aged 60 or 80 years, he is
considered to be too old. At 100 years, the
person will have to support himself with a
walking stick. Man is so stricken with age
because of his corrupt activities of eating,
drinking, smoking, snuffing, fornicating, and
destructive feeding habit. After three
pregnancies, Adam ran to the tree top to seek
refuge and to escape the matrimonial
demands of Eve, his wife. Satan met Adam
there and inquired what he was doing but he
would not answer. God, after Satan had left
him, asked Adam what the matter was with
him. Then did he tell God that He was done
with being intimate with Eve, and Adam
pleaded with God to kill the erotic urge in
him. God, there and then, killed that carnal
lust in him. Adam returned to his house and
lived with Eve as blood brother and sister. If
this sexual urge had not been taken away,
Adam would not have lived for 930 years.
Noah lived for 960 years. What about
you? You kill yourselves very fast through
your feeding habits, fornication and other
acts you indulge in. Our ultimate aim
everyday is to reach for food. This kingdom,
therefore, abhors food. Ours is fruit. Good
health and everlasting life do not depend on
wanton eating. A finger of banana or a piece
of fruit with water can sustain a man and
keep him fit for decades.
THE BENEFIT OF FASTING:
Members of Brotherhood of the Cross and
Star often mock their brethren when they
find that they are trying to fast or live austere
lives. They quickly advice you that you are
inviting death if you fast or eat fruits only.
But ironically, the next you will hear of such
advisers is that they have passed on. Neither
fasting, nor eating of fruits only, can kill you.
What really kills man and even works against
him is food. A local adage says that what the
patient relishes most is what kills him. There
is none of our sicknesses which is not
traceable to our feeding habits. That is the
28
truth, the whole truth and nothing but
the truth.
Many in this kingdom have
tested vegetarianism and they have
proven it to be so good. If you do not
mortify the flesh, how would you be
transformed? Let us re-examine the
Second Lesson.
SECOND BIBLE LESSON: LUKE
21:32-37
“Verily, I say unto you, This
generation shall not pass away till all be
fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass
away, but my words shall not pass
away. And take heed to yourselves, lest
at any time your hearts be overcharged
with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and
cares of this life, and so that day come
upon you unawares. For as a snare shall
it come on all them that dwell on face of
the whole earth. Watch ye therefore,
and pray always, that ye may be
accounted worthy to escape all these
things that shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of Man. And in the
day time, He was teaching in the
temple; and at night he went out, and
abode in the mount that is called the
mount of Olives.”
MORTIFICATION BREEDS
TRANSFORMATION:
Since the advent of Our Lord Jesus
Christ, has He ever been reported to be
sick, hungry, afflicted or dead? THIS IS
THE LORD'S LAST GENERATION.
THE NEXT MILLENNIUM,(2001)
USHERS IN ANOTHER
GENERATION. This generation, it is
said, shall not pass away until every
word spoken by the Lord is fulfilled.
Heaven and Earth, it is also said, shall
pass away, but not a jot or title of the
word of God shall pass away until all be
consummated. If it had not come to pass
yesterday, and has not fulfilled today, it shall
not fail to come to pass tomorrow. Be careful
that you do not miss this glory and kingdom
because of food, drink, and the things of this
earth. This is by way of pleading to all
mankind irrespective of your status,
profession, stature, sex or color.
The Holy Spirit has come to transform all
men to Himself so that we will be like Him.
He is eternal and if He transforms us we will
be like Him. That is the last lap of His duty-
to transform men to His image. THE
CONDITION FOR SUITABILITY OR
QUALIFICATION FOR
TRANSFORMATION IS
MORTIFICATION OF THE FLESH. YOU
HAVE TO FEED ON FRUITS TO
EXPUNGE YOUR BODY OF CLOGS.
THEN AND THEN ALONE WILL HE RID
YOUR BODY OF EVERY MANNER OF
SIN TO BE WORTHY OF HIM. EXCEPT
HE TRANSFORMS YOU, YOU CANNOT
BE WORTHY OF HIM.
THE EPITOME OF FLESH
MORTIFICATION:
I continue to talk of our *ETHIOPIAN
BROTHER, THE "I-MAN." On foot, he
traveled all the way from Ethiopia to Nigeria,
onto Calabar, using no artificial transport
system. While here in Calabar, he rejected
every hospitality, so-called. He was allocated
a room in the Guest House, given two plates
of food to be sure he ate sufficiently, the sum
of N5,500.00 and new clothing. He rejected
these favors. He told his hosts that he liked
meeting and talking with people in the public
and so he needed no accommodation. He went
on to say that he did not need two plates of
rice, neither did he need the money and
clothing because there were many others on
the streets who were in dire need of those
things more than him, and so these thing
should be given to them. He was captured,
29
bound and cast into the sea, but he was
unharmed. His captors, on reaching
home were surprised to see that he had
even returned home before them, and
he was hale and hearty. Every
injunction God gives man is for his
good. Disobedience bring untold
hardship to man.
THE GOODNESS OF
FRUITARIANISM:
The knowledge and goodness of
FRUITARIANISM is too precious to be
quantified in monetary terms. It is
knowledge which people pay
exorbitantly to acquire. Here, it is given
to you free because it is the only the
truth that can go round. Even here in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star,
husbands conceal the goodness of
FRUITARIANISM and
self-mortification from their wives and
vice-versa. FRUITARIANISM is a
personal therapeutic process. A person
who takes no medication, indulges not
in idolatry, gluttony and fornication is
full of power, both physically and
spiritually. He has power over and
above all principalities. Every fruit is
rich as a source of natural ingredients
and nutrients and each fruit has specific
powers that are so efficacious. This is
the truth I have brought to you.
You call me leader yet you do not
obey and follow me. Many excuse
themselves that they cannot be like the
Leader. If you cannot strive to be like
me, am I an animal? Was Christ an
animal? What kind of a Leader do you
think I am? I LIVE AND TEACH BY
EXAMPLE.
WE DO NOT USE CANDLES,
INCENSE OR PERFUME HERE. THE
MOMENT YOU SURRENDER
YOURSELF TO CHRIST, HE TAKES
CHARGE OF YOU AND
TRANSFORMS YOU.
THE NEED FOR FATHER:
A certain person who suffered from
epilepsy was first taken to the disciples of Our
Lord Jesus Christ, but they could not heal
him. By merely taking the same sick man
before the Lord, the sick person was healed
the moment the Lord lay hands on him. The
disciples were marveled at the feat, having
tried in vain to heal him. The Lord told them
they were people of little faith.
I need nothing from you, not even your
money or your estates. I desire that you heed
these injunctions. It is lack of faith that
rendered the Lord's disciples ineffective. The
Lord told them that if they had the smallest
faith they would command the mountain to
move and it would obey. The ability, He said,
was however derived from fasting and
prayer. It would not take God a second to
transform you to His image. And once you
are transformed by Him, you will become as
strong and solid as the rock.
MATERIALISM INHIBITS SPIRITUAL
GROWTH:
When I often traveled in the fifties (1950s)
on evangelism, I moved with no food. And
any city or village I visited normally
expressed gratitude by offering me assorted
food, goats, money, and other gifts, none of
which I would accept. The people would often
think that I had some charm that forbid such
gestures. It was unknown to them that those
material things worked against God, and
suppressed the spirit. Food is always God's
adversary and it inhibits spiritual growth. All
those who avail themselves of this
opportunity and comply shall be saved.
Many of you will be surprised how
non-church goers shall be saved whereas the
so-called church goers, and even some of the
members of Brotherhood of the Cross and
star will perish. What will destroy you is your
30
insistence on drinking, smoking, eating
meat, fish and all your other avaricious
tendencies. There are many outside
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star who
obey the Father's words immediately
they receive His instructions from the
gospels they read and from listening to
the voice of the spirit within.
The taste of the pudding, it is said, is
in the eating. Try this gospel, and you
will realize its efficacy. IF YOU SAY
YOU ARE OBU'S CHILD, OBU'S
BROTHER, OR SISTER, DO YOU
EMULATE ME? DO YOU STRIVE
TO BE LIKE ME? THE MOMENT
YOU STRIVE TO OBEY AND
EMULATE ME, YOUR PROBLEMS
SHALL END, AND YOU WILL BE
FREE. Let the Golden Text be
re-examined.
GOLDEN TEXT:
1 CORINTHIANS 15: 51-57
“Behold I show you a mystery;
we shall not all sleep, but shall be
changed. In a moment, in the twinkling
of an eye, at the last trump: for the
trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall
be raised incorruptible, and we shall be
changed. For this corruptible must put
on incorruption, and this mortal shall
have to put on immortality, then shall
be brought to pass the saying that is
written, Death is swallowed up in
victory. O Death, where is thy sting? O
grave, where is thy victory? The sting of
death is sin; and the strength of sin is
the law. But thanks be to God, which
giveth us the victory through Our Lord
Jesus Christ.”
FAITH WITHOUT WORK IS DEAD:
Now that you have heard from the
horses mouth you will turn a new leaf.
The whole world is gazing at the sky
expecting the second coming of the Lord.
They have lost sight of the fact that faith
without works is dead. How can people claim
to be waiting for the Lord yet they are knee
deep in sin? These are people who are still
eating meat, fish, they are fornicating, telling
lies, killing, drinking, snuffing, smoking, and
living generally abominable lives. Those who
are awaiting the Lord have kept their bodies
holy. This they do by living austere lives,
feeding sparingly on fruits only, and fasting
to mortify the flesh. Once you do these things
He promptly takes control over you and
transforms you unto Himself.
VEGETARIANISM IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE:
Vegetarianism has been preached time and
again. While few take it seriously, many
laugh over it and do consider such practice
impossible. There are many here in
Brotherhood of the Cross and Star who
practice vegetarianism for one or three
months, only to plunge knee-deep into eating
meat and fish, even in greater quantities than
ever before. Some of these people are
impressed upon or lured by their friends and
relations to eat animal flesh because by so
doing they will not die. Out of fear, these
people run back to the things they had
abstained from.
FRUITARIANISM IS THE BEST OPTION:
The way of life, I tell you, is very narrow.
Let us all try to eat only the food of nature,
FRUITS, which God has asked us to eat. Our
Lord Jesus Christ has said that if a man ate
not His flesh and drank not His blood, he
shall not have eternal life. (John 6:56 )
The fruits constitute the body and blood of
Christ. For instance, what do you think
coconut water is? Is it not the blood of
Christ? Fruits by themselves, when eaten raw
are medicinal. There is no type of sickness
fruits cannot heal.
31
FRUITARIANISM, therefore is the best
dietary option. Whether you are
impotent, barren, faithless,
unrepentant, or whether you are
suffering from heart attack, or
whatever ailment, the moment you
adopt and practice fruitarianism you
will be healed.
SECOND BIBLE WITNESS:
2 CORINTHIANS 3:16-18
“Nevertheless, when it shall turn to the
Lord, the veil shall be taken away. Now
the Lord is that spirit, and where the
spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty. But
we all, with open face beholding as in a
glass the glory of the Lord, are changed
into the same image from glory to glory,
even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
VEGETARIANISM AND
FRUITARIANISM:
This explains why you cannot preach
the gospel with courage. You are
overwhelmed with the promptings of
the flesh. Once you listen to the flesh or
admire anything mundane, you are
bound to fall.
 Vegetarianism involves eating
things that could be cooked and such cooked
food is billed as dead food. The heat kills all
the nutrients. FIRE KILLS OR IT
RENDERS FOOD INEFFECTIVE.
Fruitarianism therefore is eating fresh
fruits. A fruitarian is hardly robust or obese,
but he is always hale and hearty. A
FRUITARIANS IS MUCH CLOSER TO
GOD THAN ANY OTHER PERSON, AND
HE IS FREE FROM EVERY FORM OF
PROBLEM.
A stroke of the cane is sufficient for
the wise. He who has ears, let him hear. May
God bless His Words-Amen.
THANK YOU FATHER.
