GOD REVEALED AS THE FATHER.

First Bible Lesson: Matthew Chapter 11 verse 27

"All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but
the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoev
er the Son will reveal him."
Second Bible Lesson: Matthew Chapter 6 verse 9
"After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed b
e thy name."
Golden Text: Matthew Chapter 23 verse 9
"And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in
heaven."
The intricacies of this Kingdom are not clear to you? This week is called the Fa
ther's Week, but where are His children? Brethren, I do not blame you, because i
t has always been like this, and will continue like that till eternity. You have
heard, whom the Father loves, He reveals the Son unto him. Except also, whom th
e Son wants to reveal the Father unto. You have been told not to call any man on
earth father. Upon all the persons you refer to as father, you have only one Fa
ther.
When you are told, the Father wants you, do not ask which Father because there i
s only one Father. We have many brothers and sisters, but we have only one Fathe
r. Whenever you hear Father, it is that One Father who is calling you.
If the whole Brotherhood had known what Father means, all the inhabitants of the
world would have known what to do. We use earthly things to illustrate heavenly
things.
The Word of God says, if you do not love your brother, whom you have seen, how c
an you love God, whom you do not see? (1st John Chapter 4 verse 20). That is why
in all things, the Father uses earthly situations, to illustrate heavenly situa
tions. He says, whoever honors the Son, also honors the Father. (John Chapter 5
verse 23).
If you cast your minds back, you will realize, the Father's Week has never been
kept at any point in time, because no person has ever known the Father.
The whole world and even members of Brotherhood, regard this week as a very insi
gnificant week. The women will say, the week belongs to the men, and they had th
e Mother's Week. And I ask how many Fathers have you got? If all the brothers an
d sisters had realized what is meant by "Father's Week," not even the children w
ould have been left out of this gathering.
The one and the most significant works, which Our Lord Jesus Christ did, was to
reveal the Father. The greatest work, which Brotherhood has done in this generat
ion, is worshipping the Father, and setting aside one whole week to celebrate th
e manifestation of the Father.
It is not just lip-service, but a means of rejoicing with Him, and glorifying Hi
m throughout this month, and throughout this year by all the inhabitants of the
world, so all creations may realize, the Father has come.
This is the week set aside for the Father, who sent the son. The Father to whom
Our Lord Jesus Christ was always referring to, as "Father, Father," which prompt
ed Philip to ask Him, "show us the Father." And now, that Father has been reveal
ed to you.
The whole Brotherhood should celebrate this week amidst songs, feasts, dancing,
charities; in offices, at homes, in the Bethels and everywhere, until the whole
world acclaims, they have really seen the Father. Because this is His reign.
Did Our Lord Jesus Christ not tell you about the Father? Did He not bear witness
to the Father? Right from his infancy, when he was twelve years of age, he was
always calling on the Father. He bore witness to the Father. When they went to t
he feast in Jerusalem, he was only twelve years old, and his earthly parents lef
t him behind, after the feast. He went and sat in the temple with the doctors of
law, the lawyers, the priests and the Scribes. (Luke Chapter 2 verse 46). He wa
s asking them questions and answering theirs. That was a child of twelve. Did th
ey know that was the Son?
He is the Son of Man, son of the Father and the Father Himself. There is a local
adage a child starts his delicacies with a snail. Because, if he had said, He i
s God, then people would have rent their clothes.
From Genesis to Malachi, you will not find any portion where God is referred to
as "Father." Abraham did not know him as the Father. But earthly things are used
to illustrate heavenly things, and so Abraham was called "Father Abraham." He i
s used in the illustration, because he was the "friend" of God. He became God's
representative. That is how the Name "Father" came to be known. But the substanc
e of that name is what you now have.
This is the time of the Father. This is the generation of the Father. Jesus Chri
st said unto them, "Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the bui
lders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's do
ing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?" (Matthew Chapter 21 verse 42). "Therefor
e say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nat
ion bringing forth the fruits thereof." (Matthew Chapter 21 verse 43). I am tell
ing you, Our Lord Jesus Christ was bearing witness to this glory.
He said: "when the Father shall come, He will reveal all things unto you, becaus
e He will glorify me. He will testify of me, because I bore witness to Him. For
all that belong to the Father belong to me." (John Chapter 16 verse 15). There i
s no division between them. He bore witness to the Father and the Father bore wi
tness to Him; and therefore, His glory is revealed fully. Any house, which is di
vided against itself cannot stand. The Father and the Son are One. There is no d
ivision among them. And all that belongs to the Father also belongs to the Son,
and all that belongs to the Son also belongs to the Father. That is why, whoever
honors the Son also honors the Father, and all those who honor the Father, hono
r the Son also. That is why, the Son bestowed all glories to the Father. The Fat
her is not worried, because He knows that all the glory is His Son's. The Father
Himself has bestowed all glory unto the Son, and you will wonder what then rema
ins for the Father? I am telling you, all the glory still belongs to the Father.
It is said, whoever speaks of himself seeks his own glory. (John Chapter 7 verse
18). Since you are seeking your own glory, you speak of yourself. If the Father
is not known, how can you be known? And if you are not known, how can He be kno
wn? Can you realize the wisdom of God?
He came and declared, He was the Son. He did not claim, He is the Father. He cal
led Himself the son of earth. That is why, the Jews wanted to kill Him: that He
being a man should regard Himself as God. They did not know Him.
If you bear witness to yourself, your witness is not true, but if another person
bears witness to you, testimony is true. Your problem is, you complain, in your
 family you are the only light. When you say this, you have disgraced God. Our p
roblem is, wherever we go we continue to boast of having the power to do one thi
ng or the other. Have you got this power? You have failed. If you bear witness o
f another person, people will believe your testimony, but when you bear witness
to yourself people will not pay any attention to you.
You should realize, there was nothing at the beginning. The world was empty and
void, without form. (Genesis Chapter 1 verse 2). He then created the earth, the
heavens, the sun, the moon and the stars. He made the trees, the fishes in water
, the birds and the animals in the forest.
Finally, (and can you realize how kind, generous and unselfish God is?), He said
, let us create man in our own image, and in our own likeness. (Genesis Chapter
1 verse 26). If you were God, you would have created man in the lowest position,
because you want man to be your servant.
Yet, after creating man, He said, "let him have dominion over the fish of the se
a, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, an
d over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." Tell me what else is
remaining for God?
Any person, who speaks of himself, and arrogates to himself any power, will be l
ooked at despitefully, but when you tell people, they are beautiful and wealthy
and kind, the people will begin to applaud you, not knowing, you are talking abo
ut yourself.
If you do not give glory to someone, who will give glory to you? If you do not l
ove somebody, who will be obedient unto you? It is God alone, who has all the vi
rtues.
Do you not observe, how he has glorified the stone, because God Himself is the S
tone. Have you ever heard any person, who starts counting with the number one? Y
ou have to start from zero, then one, two, three and so on.
That explains why, He told Cain and Abel to offer sacrifices to Him. (Genesis Ch
apter 4 verses 4 to 8). He himself did not seek for these sacrifices, but He wan
ted to test them.
From the beginning people worshipped whatever they liked. Whoever worshipped a s
tone was regarded as worshipping God. Whosoever worshipped fire was regarded as
worshipping God, because God Himself is fire. When you do evil, fire will consum
e you, because God is a consuming fire.
When an angel operates people will accept an angel as God; but thereafter, they
will be advanced to the next stage of evolution. The names, called by people as:
Flohim Jah, Jove, are names of angels. They were at one time revealed unto us.
God himself says, He would come as a Prophet. When He comes as a prophet we woul
d not know, God has come, but when He departs we regret his coming.
Hezekiah was sick of abscess, but turned to God for help that God should remembe
r what he did for Him in his youth. God advised him to use the leaves of a tree
to cure the abscess, and God extended his life for the next 15 years. (2nd Kings
Chapter 20 verses 5 to 11).
There has never been a time, when any person starts to worship God; and admits,
what he worships is God. He has to start by worshipping trees, stones and the in
animate objects. When you go and trace the evolution of religion, you will reali
ze, man started by worshipping stones, trees, roots, leaves and other inanimate
objects.
That is why, He told Adam, eat of all the trees in the Garden, except this one;
and from there He started teaching them about Himself. You will then realize how
difficult His way is. This is the very last generation, the end of time.
First Bible Lesson: Matthew Chapter 11 verse 27
"All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but
the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoev
er the Son will reveal him."
Brethren, have you heard that? He says, my Father has delivered all things unto
me. No one knows the Son, except the Father; and no man knows the Father, except
the Son, and whomsoever the Son will reveal Him.
Is that statement not fulfilled today? Philip asked Our Lord: "show us the Fathe
r." (John Chapter 14 verses 8 to 10). And I ask why is it, right from Adam, no m
an has known the Father? Every person calls Him Jehovah, but Jehovah is an Angel
. When you hear, Abraham saw God, he only saw an angel. They worshipped angels,
rocks, trees, and the winds. When God created Adam, how would it sound, if God h
ad told him: "Adam you are God." Should he worship himself?
What would be the meaning of that? Who would ever greet another person in this w
orld? Who would ever have regard for another person? He has given us an injuncti
on to love one another; and this implies, something important was on the way. Th
e thing that lies ahead is you, yourself.
We have an adage: the fame of a man is more efficacious than his person. Do you
not realize, the fame is greater than what we see? When you hear stories of a fa
mous person you desire to see him. When you see him, what is he? He is nothing.
His greatness consists in the fame, people spread. I want you to experiment, on
what I am going to tell you. Tomorrow morning send out somebody to deliver a mes
sage to another person. Tell your servant to tell him, his master says, he shoul
d take action on the instruction at once. The moment the person receives this me
ssage, even if he is a lawyer, he will begin to shake, because he does not know
what the master of this servant looks like, and how he came to know him.
When you send out somebody in this way, you will look big, in the eyes of the pe
rson, who receives the message. But when you go out to meet the fellow and tell
him, you are the person, who had been sending the message to him, the person wil
l begin to gather himself, and express surprise, because he has known you all th
e time. And from that day your reputation is gone.
That is why, you are not to glorify your own self or speak of your own self. You
have to bear testimony of another person. If you should go out, and proclaim to
people, someone is coming from Lagos, who will preach to them, and take away al
l their problems and sickness, and you yourself are nothing, people will turn ou
t in large numbers. As a matter of fact, when that person comes, wonders will ha
ppen, because they have already believed in him, and so the glory of God will be
revealed. And if this person in turn tells them, he has not done anything, beca
use the one greater than him is coming, they will ask "is there a greater person
than this one?" He is the person we want!
That is exactly how, God lives His own life in this kingdom. It is He Himself, w
ho is doing all these things. That is why, when John came he said, he was nothin
g: that another person, who was preferred before him was coming. He is so great,
he John, was not worthy to untie the latchet of his shoes. (Luke Chapter 3 vers
e 16). He was the same God.
The Christ in turn said, of all men born of woman, there is none that is greater
than John; except he, who is least in the kingdom of heaven. Can you notice thi
s? John is bearing witness to Jesus, and Jesus also is bearing witness to John.
Finally Our Lord Jesus Christ told them, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He tha
t believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than
these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." (John Chapter 14 verse 12).
He also told them, the Comforter, who is also the Holy Spirit, whom the Father w
ill send in my name, will teach you all things, and lead you unto the accurate w
isdom of the truth, and He shall also bring to your remembrance all, I have told
you. (John Chapter 14 verse 26).
And so, every person was waiting eagerly for the coming of that Comforter. We ha
ve another proverb, which says: "An old thing is your own thing, and a new thing
is a thing of joy." And so all of us are eager to hear new doctrines, because y
ou will hear people telling you to go away with stale news. They are fed up, and
want something new. The new thing is a thing of joy; that is why, God always re
news Himself. He is always new, with a new name. But He is the same one.
And so when John taught his disciples to pray; the disciples of Our Lord Jesus C
hrist also went to Him and told Him, "Teach us how to pray even as John taught h
is disciples." (Luke Chapter 11 verse 1). Remember the words which He said: the
Father has given everything unto him; that no person knows the Son, except the F
ather; and that no one knows the Father, except the Son; and to whomsoever the S
on, would reveal him. He also says, I and the Father are one. (John Chapter 10 v
erse 30). Did he not reveal the Father, to the whole world? The greatest work, w
hich Our Lord Jesus Christ did, which no person had ever done, was to reveal God
as the Father.
During the conversation of Our Lord Jesus Christ with the woman of Samaria, she
said unto Him, "Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jer
usalem is the place where men ought to worship. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, bel
ieve me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jer
usalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship
: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true w
orshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeke
th such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship
him in spirit and in truth." (John Chapter 4 verses 20 to 24).
This is that time referred to. The spirit referred to is the "Father." This Fath
er is the God, who made heaven and earth. The Son is in Him. The children are in
Him. The prophets are in Him. All the apostles are in Him. All the elders, all
created and uncreated things are in Him, because He is the Father, who created t
he Heavens, the earth, the waters, the rocks, the winds and whatever flies and c
reeps.
Noah did not know Him as the Father. He worshipped Him with the name Jehovah. Go
d is not His name. Lord, also, is not His name. His name is not Elohim. "I am th
at I am," is not his name. Creator of Heaven and Earth is not His name. "Most Hi
gh" is not His name. The only befitting name of God is "Father."
What does Father mean? All spirits emanate from Him. The Head from whom all thin
gs are derived is what is referred to as Father. Everything including man, trees
, fishes in the water, fire, water, power, wisdom, truth, death and everything c
ome from Him. That is why He is called "Father."
When you call God, you should realize, there are many gods. The word God is a me
re semantic. The spelling is g-o-o-d, which is good. One 'O' is omitted, and it
is being called God. And so the word "G-o-d" has no meaning again. It is a termi
nological inexactitude.
I am not criticizing them. I am only correcting them. This is the time of perfec
tion, and so imperfection must pass away; because half education is a very dange
rous thing. I do not blame Adam, I do not blame Eve. I do not blame Enoch or Mos
es. I do not blame any person, because that was their level of understanding. Th
ose who worshipped trees have not sinned, because they were worshipping the God
of some kind. Those who were worshipping water as God, have done no wrong. It is
the same God.
But now is the fullness of time, for all the trees, the waters and everything to
worship the Father, who is the Father of all creation, because this is His reig
n. Since He created stones, He is the Father of stones. He is the Father of the
waters. He is the Father of man. He is the Father of the animals. He is the Fath
er of the winds, sun, and earth. He is the Father of everything. And so, we know
Him only as the Father. Let the second lesson be read.
Second Bible Lesson: Matthew Chapter 6 verse 9
"After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed b
e thy name."
Brethren, what have you learnt from that? Did any person ever impart this kind o
f teaching, revealing God as the Father? Do you know, you dishonor God when you
call another person father? Begin to trace the genealogy of your father; it ends
with Adam. And who is the Father of Adam? Is He not God? Why not call a spade a
spade?
This is the time to call a spade by its name. The movement of the Israelites fro
m Egypt during the deliverance to Canaan was parabolic. They wondered for 40 yea
rs.
Right from the time of Adam, count the number of years up to date, yet people ha
ve not known God. You can now realize, His way is mysterious.
People go to the sun to search for God. Some go to the moon. They go into water,
they go into the deeps, they go to America, India and everywhere, but was He lo
st? Here He is. He is the Father. The Father, who art in heaven.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said, He was sent by the Father. I am going back to the Fa
ther, because the Father is greater than I. (John Chapter 14 verse 28). But toda
y no person seeks after the Father, they rather seek for Jesus. No person asks "
where is the Father? When will the Father come?" You continue to ask "When will
Jesus come again?" Oh, Jesus the Son of God! But what about God Himself, is He n
ot the Father?
God sent Moses as a prophet, and when Moses died, the people wept for one full m
onth complaining, their God was dead. (Deuteronomy Chapter 34 verse 8). They did
not wait unto God, who sent him; the one, who did those works. Can you realize
the stupidity of man? But God wanted to show them, their foolishness; and so, He
raised up Joshua. And Joshua did greater works than Moses, even then, they did
not learn. (Joshua Chapter 1 verses 1 to 3).
It is written, we are laborers together in the vineyard of God. (1st Corinthians
Chapter 3 verse 9). We are God's building. We are God's husbandry. We are God's
vineyard. You are walking and working with God. You are the vineyard He has pla
nted. Therefore, He is the Father. Have you not heard, the kingdoms of this worl
d are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and His Christ? (Revelation Chapter 11 ve
rse 15). He is the Father. He is the great Father, who lives in you.
It is said, the dwelling place of God is now with men: And he shall be their God
and they shall be His children. (Revelation Chapter 21 verse 3). Right now ther
e is no other name. Do not call any man on earth father. Do not contemplate it i
n your heart. He alone is the Father.
Jehovah God is not His name. His name is not Christ. Elohim is not His name. His
name is the "Father:" simpliciter. He had allowed all those names, so you may r
ealize, He has neither bias, nor discrimination. He gives the leaves their own g
lory. He gives water the glory that belongs to it. The same with the fire.
But now, He has confiscated all the glories unto Himself. And so you may go to H
im, and tell Him to heal you. He can direct you to go, and wash three times in w
ater, and you will be well. But you begin to argue, since He has come in person
He should touch you, and you will be well. Just go and you are well, so the wate
r may be glorified.
Now you may just end your ministry work, only to be told to go on ministry work
in Lagos. Go to Surulere and pray there. Pay your tithe, and your problems are t
aken away. You begin to argue, "but the Father is here what have I to do in Suru
lere?" I say, you should go. Before you get there, and complete what you were in
structed, all your problems are over, and you become well.
You may be told to go, and meet one small boy in Ikot town, who will pray for yo
u. And you argue and ask, what a small boy can pray, you want a senior prophet,
or the Father to place his hands on you and pray. That small boy is the Father.
Go to him, and all things are well.
Sometimes, He will tell you to go, and pray in the Bethel. Observe dry-fasting f
or one day, and your problems are solved. You will argue, you were in the Bethel
on fasting yesterday. Just go and do same. If you do what He tells you, your pr
oblems will be over.
Everything is by the Father. That is why, He has taught the whole world: "Our Fa
ther who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name." Who is the Father who is in heave
n, is it not this same Father? Have we hallowed His name?
It behooves the Children of God to worship, and honor His name. Everywhere, ever
y person should dance and rejoice, and give alms generously, because this is His
reign. Have you ever heard of any person, who practices the injunction: "Let us
honor your name: our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name?"
The whole of Brotherhood has to honor His name. All the inhabitants of the world
should hallow His own name. Fishes in the waters, trees in the forest, animals
in the bush, angels, spirit, everything created by God, should all hallow the na
me of the Father.
You have heard what is said, no person knows the Son except the Father, and no p
erson knows the Father, except the Son, and whomsoever the Son will reveal Him.
Search from Genesis through the Revelation of John, search throughout the world,
search through the ages: have you ever heard of the Father's Week? Have you rea
d of it in the Bible? Is it recorded in history? Have you heard it mentioned in
the world? Throughout the whole universe, this is the first time such a week has
ever been mentioned. I have never heard of it myself. It is said, six days belo
ng to the thief, and the seventh belongs to the farmer.
God has never revealed this week, at any point in time. He kept it, and reserved
it is to be celebrated, at this time by all inhabitants of the world. The conce
pt of Father's Week is not clear to many of you. You think the Father is man? He
is not man, but Father; the Father, who created the heavens and the earth.
It is said, but for your Father, would you know your mother; and but for your mo
ther, would you have come into this world? Whose glory is it then? It is the Fat
her's glory. Now, the men folk know no better than to put on their suits, and dr
ive their long cars, and speak their Queen's English. But they have never known
of the Father's Week, as it is being revealed today.
Many people think, the Father's Week refers to the Father, who begot the Leader.
Okay, how did the Leader come to this place? How did the other person, who bego
t the Leader come about? Finally, what we have is Father. Our Father, which is i
n Heaven, is the one we are referring to, the One who made heaven and earth, and
the fullness of them. Therefore, we should all worship and honor Him. Trace the
genealogy of the father, who begot the Leader. That father, who was his father?
And finally, you will end with Adam. And so it is that other, who made Adam and
Eve, we are talking about. This is His Week.
The Roman Catholics have different days and festivals for saints, and what have
you; but there has never been a thing like The Father's Week, The Father's Day,
The Father's month or The Father's year. But from today, "The Father's Week" has
to be observed forever and ever.
It has no other meaning apart from Father's Week. I want this gospel to be publi
shed, so if any person asks you, what is Father's Week, you hand this gospel to
him. "Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name." That is exactly what
we are doing. There is no other thing. If you bring in another father, you are d
oomed. In which other way can we reveal the Father, except in this way.
When somebody asks you, "What are you doing?" You tell him, you are celebrating
the Father's Week. And he asks "which Father?" How many Fathers have you? This F
ather's Week embraces all the governments. The trees, the rocks, angels, winds,
fishes, created and uncreated things, all have a share in it. There is no man, w
ho is the father. There is no tree that is the Father. There is no angel that is
the Father. There is no wind, or fish, or animal that is the Father, except Him
alone, that is the Father, the Creator of Heaven and Earth.
If you call any man "Father" you have erred. You cannot refer to Adam as your Fa
ther. If you do, you have erred. The Bible will tell you, Adam was the Son of Go
d, and Our Lord Jesus Christ was also the Son of God, the Father that created Ad
am and Eve; the Father, who sent Our Lord Jesus Christ, He is the Father. He is
the one and only Father.
Adam was the begotten Son of God. Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself was, one Son. Yo
u yourself are, one Son. Even if you fill the whole world, including trees and a
nimals, all are, one Son. Therefore, we all should worship Him and serve Him. Th
is is the time of His glory, and so we must worship Him.
You can call God or Jehovah. We know He is not the one. If you call on Elohim, H
e is not Him. But when you mention Father, that is it. Do you ask questions? Do
you argue? Bow down and worship. There is nothing like God-Father. It is only on
e Father, and He is for all the heavens and earth.
This is the time of His glory, and so we all should give glory to Him. Do not ca
ll any person by that name. Do not even refer to any person as your stepfather.
Do you not realize how wise the whites are? They call the parent "Daddy." The wh
ites have gone very far. Have you ever herd them call their parent Father? They
will not, because they know, there is only one Father. But the blacks will call
even somebody they have never known father, because he is an old man. Afterwards
, they will refer to another person, as their carnal father. Does it mean, there
are two "Fathers?"
You can call him "daddy, papa, brother" that is all, that is accepted. That coul
d also be alright. But make no mistake in calling him, father, for we have only
but one Father. This is the Father's day: this is His week; this is His month, a
nd days ahead.
This is the time of His glory, and so we all should give glory to Him. Do not ca
ll any person by that name. Do not even refer to any person as your stepfather.
You are His child. Every person is His own child. Who then should you call the f
ather, amongst His children. That would be a blasphemous statement. Our Lord Jes
us Christ had taught, you should call no man upon the earth, teacher; and you sh
ould call no man father. (Matthew Chapter 23 verses 8 and 9). There is only one
Father, who is in heaven.
All you had done, the Father has forgiven you. Right from today, the 25th day of
November, 1985, it has been revealed from the highest heaven to the four corner
s of the world, both angels and human beings, no more make the mistake of callin
g any man, Father; so, you may not be consumed. Wherever you come across the wor
d father, you have to be fearful, for there is no deputy, but the Father alone e
xists.
You have to hallow that Name. You have to fear that Name, and to bow down to it.
At any time, the name is being mentioned, you have to realize, He is the One.
Why I have been shown the second lesson is, the prayer is often offered by all t
he church denominations. The prayer is, "Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed b
e thy name." If at any time you call on the Father, and you are asked, "which Fa
ther," you have to refer the inquirer to Matthew Chapter 6 verse 9.
Tell the person, you are calling on, Father. If the person insists, refer him to
the golden text. Matthew Chapter 23 verse 9. Know ye no other man as the father
. Everything emanates from the Father. This is the reign of the Father.
Brotherhood means the brethren. They are the children of this one Father, we hav
e therefore to demonstrate, dance, and celebrate the Father's week in a grand st
yle.
It is said: the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation
of the sons of God. When the Children of God are revealed, then the Father will
Himself be revealed. When the Father is revealed, then the Children of God will
be revealed. As the Children of God, we have to honor His name. We have to revea
l His name to every person. Let no one call any person Father. Wherever you go t
o, you have to make people know that name.
This Gospel has to be read to all, to learn by heart as a recitation. You have t
o memorize it; so that, the flesh might be destroyed fully. For the glory of the
Father is actually revealed. I am not the Father. No one is the Father.
There is no other, Father excepting the one in Heaven. He is the only Father. At
anytime you address a letter to the Father, I know the person you are referring
to. You are referring to the Father in heaven.
Golden Text: Matthew Chapter 23 verse 9
"And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in
heaven."
It is combined when it is said, God is a Spirit. That is why, I tell you, the Sp
irit, which is now here, has never at any time come down. The Father has come Hi
mself: sending no one.
The Father who is in heaven is the Father of all the Spirits: both the angels an
d the children, all human beings, the trees, animals, and whatever you think of.
This is so, because His name is "Father."
You have to remember, when an angel in heaven, an angel of deceit, asked God, he
should be allowed to enter into five hundred persons in order to deceive the ki
ng since he, (the king), had refused to believe in God.
That is why, the spirit of falsehood said, "Let me go into five hundred persons
to deceive the king that he would be victorious, since he has refused to believe
in God." So that spirit came and entered into five hundred persons. And as the
king went to them one by one he was told, he would be victorious in the war. Bec
ause of these other words, he turned round to blame the prophet of God, who told
the king he would not be victorious, that the stupid prophet was only deceiving
him. That means, he does not love me. He, (the prophet), has to suffer. Whereve
r the king went to, he was told, he would be victorious. Five hundred people you
know are not just five people. It is said, words of testimonies in the mouth of
two or three confirm a fact. You can now see the words of testimonies from the
mouths of five hundred people are false.
There is only one Lord, and one Father: one Spirit. All of them put together con
stitute the Father. Here we have only one Father. It is written boldly, "call no
man upon the earth, neither in heaven, nor in the moon, nor in the sun, nor in
stars, Father." Do not wonder in thoughts. As soon as you call on the Father, re
alize, it is only the Father, who is in Heaven.
Do not call on the Father through the name Jehovah, or God, or Elohim. Once you
call on Him as the Father, it is sufficient. It is Him you are calling upon, and
whatever you may desire, you will have.
I do not want to hear that word "carnal Father." What is the meaning of your car
nal father? It is simply, Father. The greatest of all the names is "Father." The
holiest of all the names is "Father." The most powerful of all the names is "Fa
ther." The only name, which surrounds, and envelops both heaven and earth is the
"Father."
The name, "Children" comes from the Father. Angels emanate from that name. All s
pirits, be they white, black, or yellow come from that name. The sun, the moon,
the rain, fire, stones, and all other things emanate from the name "Father." He
is therefore a Father indeed.
Lay aside your insolence, and honor that name: for He is the Father. Lay aside t
hose funny names as Jehovah, Jah, Elohim, and Javel for they all emanate from Hi
m. And none, is the name of the Father. His name, right from today; for which yo
u have to decide and abide by, is simply, "Father." When you do, wonders will ac
tually happen.
I believe, ever since the creation of man; this 25th day of November, 1985, is t
he greatest of all the days. It is a day set aside by God for Himself: in order
to reveal His name, and to hallow His name. Right from now, all the inhabitants
of the world, both angels and human beings, must hallow the name of the Father;
so, we may be saved, and receive the blessings, praises and the glory kept for u
s.
Your problems emanate from the fact, you do not know the Father, and life eterna
l is to know the Father. Even though it is said, every thing should be asked in
the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the central figure is the Father. Therefore,
at any moment you knock your head, call on the Father, thanking Him for what He
has given unto you. By so doing, wonders will happen. You only have to thank Him
for the life He has given unto you, and all other things will be bestowed unto
you. It is not a matter of long statements. As soon as you call on the Father fr
om your heart of hearts, wonders will surely happen. You will be healed of your
sickness. You will no more be in lack. You will have many other things bestowed
unto you. You will be surprised right from the day, the Father is revealed to yo
u.
We are in the father. Our Lord Jesus Christ is in the Father. Everything is in t
he Father. All trees are in the Father. There is only one flock under one shephe
rd. There is only one Father. Therefore, there is no more problem.
When Our Lord Jesus Christ came, whom did he call? Did he ever call on Jehovah?
He continued calling on the Father. At all instances, he was calling on the Fath
er. That is why, Philip was prompted to say: "show us the Father, and it suffice
th us." (John Chapter 14 verse 8). Our Lord Jesus Christ did not condemn, but on
ly made the correction to show, He is the Father and He is the Spirit.
He did not dispute about certain things, because everything comes from the Fathe
r. But the accurate wisdom of the truth is to know Him as the Father. It is said
, whoever has the Father has no problems. Whoever knows the Father has no encumb
rances. Our Lord Jesus Christ said, "I am the true vine, and my Father is the hu
sbandman." All the statements of Our Lord Jesus Christ centered on the Father. (
John Chapter 15 verse 1).
Throughout this week and in the weeks ahead, you have to attribute everything to
the Father, both in your offices and everywhere. Say to all, both governors and
others, that it is the Father, who does everything. They will be forced to ask
you, which Father; to which you will say, Our Father, who is in Heaven.
The Father had given you an injunction, you should love the brethren. (1st Peter
Chapter 2 verse 17). This again refers to Himself. Who are the brethren spoken
of? Is He not the one? It is said, Fear God. Who is God? He is the Father. You a
re told to honor the king. Who is the King referred to? It is also the Father.
As soon as, you call on the Father, it means you have called on everything; wate
r and the fishes. Things created and uncreated are therefore included. By mere w
riting the word, Father, made-up of six letters of the alphabet, it means, every
thing is accomplished.
Simply call a spade a spade. Right from today, do not hold by the legs, neither
the tail alone. But rather take hold of the head.
1st Corinthians Chapter 15 verse 28, clearly states openly, "And when all things
shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him
that put all things under him, that God may be all in all." You should not know
any other thing apart from the Father.
When you are asked who is singing, the answer should be, it is the Father. When
you are asked the person testifying, you have to say, it is the Father. If you a
re asked, who has healed this sickness, your answer should be the Father. Who is
he, who has called us? You have a reply, it is the Father. Who has changed us?
It is the Father. Who is the visioner? It is the Father. Who is he, who is doing
every work? It is the Father.
We have a spiritual chorus which says: In the morning, it is the Father, who doe
s the work. In the afternoon, it is still the Father, who does the work. And in
the evening, it is the Father. In the night, it is the same Father, who does the
work.
The Father has passed through. It is He alone, who passes through. The Father is
still at work. As the Father likes. Right from today: whether you have been cal
ling on the Father jovially, or have been calling in ignorance, you have to know
, the word "Father" is true.
Whoever does not honour the son, does not honour the Father. Whoever honours the
Son, equally honours the Father. If you honour the brethren, you are in effect
hallowing the Father. If you honour the mother, you are honouring the Father. If
you honour the father, it means you are honouring the Father.
Anything you do unto the children, you are doing unto the Father. Remember what
the angel, whom John wanted to worship had to say, "See thou do it not: I am thy
fellowservant, and of thy brethren, the prophets... It is the Father, whom you
have to worship." (Revelation Chapter 19 verse 10). That time of foolishness had
past; the time whereby men worshipped funny things. This is the time for the gl
orification of God. The glory of the Father has been revealed already.
God does not only exist today. From today, you have to reveal the Father to ever
yone. You have to reveal the Father everywhere, until even the blind will be for
ced to ask, who is the Father. At that point, this gospel has to be shown to him
. You have been revealed as the sons, and He has been revealed as the Father.
Here in Brotherhood, He is known as the Father, and you as the children. That is
because, the son has revealed the Father to all the inhabitants of the world as
the Father. Call no other person Father. The Father Himself has revealed His ch
ildren and His Christ; and that all the inhabitants of the world are His childre
n. You are therefore the sons of brethren. Can you not realize, if all the inhab
itants of the world believe in the Father, they have also believed in the Son? E
very person believes all the inhabitants of the world are the Children of God, a
nd they are Brotherhood; it means, they have also believed in the Father as the
father of all.
In the days past, we have revealed you as Brotherhood, but there has never been
this type of revelation, whereby the Father is being revealed as The Father, cre
ator of heaven and earth.
He can make and unmake. The Father does not start anything as the son, but as th
e Father. Listen attentively and you will understand, the Father does not speak
as does the son. He does not speak as a prophet; neither does he speak as an ang
el. He does not speak as a messenger, but simply as the Father. He has taken com
plete dominion of all of you.
The one, who dwells in you, is the Father and not the Son. The Father and the So
n are one. Once you see the Father, you have seen the Son. Wherever the Father i
s, there the Son is, and also the Holy Spirit. Wherever the Holy Spirit is, ther
e you have the angel, the prophet, apostles, and everything.
Brethren, I am thankful to the Father for saying, except the Son reveals the Fat
her, and except also the Father reveals the Son, no one knows Him. Therefore, I
am thankful to the Father, in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
That statement has been manifested today. The Father has revealed the Son and th
e Son has also revealed the Father. Therefore, the children also have to reveal
the Father.
Brethren, we will not take you further than this. It is said, one stroke of the
cane is sufficient for the wise. Any person who has ears to hear, let him or her
hear. May God bless His Holy Words. Amen.
THANK YOU FATHER.
