I Will Build My Church (Five)

January 18, 2025

Adam could never have experienced an alien loneliness for many reasons. He was surrounded by a breathtaking environment, a divinely crafted landscaping excellence. The beauty of the sky, the variety of plants and very friendly animals of various sizes of intricate fashioning all held the lord of the earth in sheer captivating wonder to last years. Adam had not even espied the coolness attraction of large yellowed dusky sun. Neither had he gazed enraptured on the millions of twinkles of the night stars and the silver moon; how could he be suffering from boredom, so too soon, when he was not even up to the age of one earthly day? Adam, in the light of Divine plan, was different from what the Church is to offer the LORD God: latria. The Church is a congregation of individuals, whose focus is on which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty, Jesus Christ. If Adam must exemplify Jesus, in whose stead he stood as the lord of the world, he must take on a help meet for him, a wife. Why do you think God rated the completion of Day Six, “very good,” and for other days, “good”? None of the accomplishments of Days One to Five met the excellent requirement of the Church. When it comes to Divine interest, the Church remains His paramount enterprise. Because of this enterprise, God built a house for Himself, Garden of Eden, and put Adam and his wife there to the perfection of the latria on earth. Read More

God does not, technically speaking, lose things. Every born again Christian has come back to life eternal, sustained and maintained by the Author of salvation. The enemy will introduce these acts of sinfulness, definitely, but children of God ought to live up to the regenerated life in Christ Jesus. Satan, I have always made it clear, works twenty-five hours everyday; he knows what buttons to press in the mortality of our flesh to cause us to sin against the LORD God. All we need to do is to remember and to use God’s word to counter demonic operatives. Render satanic advancement inoperative by ignoring inordinate fleshly propensities: this is how to mortify our members when Satanism tries to control our emotions. We must mortify our members, not for the reason of keeping our salvation intact, but to prove the essence of our soteriological actuality. The Author of creationism Who also fashioned salvation is the One Who preserves the salvation of mankind. The essential reason for the rapture is to ensure the safety of Christianity when the Antichrist must, as a matter of justice, be allowed to have his day (one week or rather seven years). What is more, it will be unfair to allow the Church of the living God to remain on earth during the seven years, with the turbulence of the second half when Satan’s son must unleash brutality as never seen. The unfairness is that many Christians who know the God they serve and are full of the Holy Spirit will thwart the evil designs of Satanism. Jesus gave Christianity the power that surpasses that of Lucifer. Our steps are ordered by the King of glory, ensuring the words of Romans 16:20.Read More

Prophet Isaiah expressly gave the description of beards covered cheeks of the expected Messiah in the vaticination of Isaiah 50:6 “I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.” Is this not a Messianic prophecy Honestly, it is astounding that the General Superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church majors on holiness and righteousness as if that is the only thing the born again Christian needs. When Jesus made the affirmation, “I will build my Church,” there is an addendum to that asseveration, “and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it;” making it known to all and sundry that the Church He will build will be divinely protected by Him of Whom all things consist. The Church is made up of saved souls of Christianity. There, most certainly, is an unimpeded divine security of salvation. Who can help me reach out to Pastor Kumuyi that the life of Christianity dwells no more in the free moral agency of individual child of the Most High? It has moved into the custody of the Godhead. The Father instituted the call; Jesus covers every Christian in His righteousness, while the Holy Spirit takes eternal abode in the spirit realm of every child of God. This is how serious God treats the soteriology. Three times divinely insured is the zōē the born again Christian exists in. God is the Insurer; He has settled every financial commitment of the insurance; what can go wrong if the LORD God is the faithful One? Nothing! The Church is God’s biggest deal. Will any father allow anything evil happen to any of his one thousand children, especially if that Father has the triune essentiality of Omnipotence, Omniscience and an incredibility of Omnipresence? “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!” These pastors do not understand that if anything should terminate the true salvation of man, Jehovah’s credibility is called to question! Not that it will amount judging God, but, “Why go into a business You cannot successfully consummate?” that will be on the lips of intelligent beings against the LORD God. Read More

Understandably, we agree that the ring speaks of authority, but, the thing is, if it reeks of idolatry, then it becomes not permissible. It is quite disturbing that the venerable W.F. Kumuyi will teach his congregation to do everything to disallow the growth of mustache and beard, which the General Superintendent sees as idolatrous. The beard is a mark of dignity whether Oriental, Semitic or Western. Psalm 133:2 “It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;” the exegesis of which points to the dignity of the unity of the brethren, exemplified by the personality of High Priest Aaron, does not, in any way, exempt Aaron’s dignified beard. Why? His beard is God’s creation of Adamic accessory. Selah! David dignified his personality with the masculinity of beard, otherwise there would never have been the account of 1Samuel 21:13 “And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.” If it is idolatrous, which god did David serve with his spittle soaked beard? If the keeping of mustache and beard are marks of idolatry, then we should not allow any hair on our body: eyebrows, eyelashes and the one of our domes from ever shooting out the least of millimetre jut. When King David’s emissaries were forced by Ammon newly installed king, Hanun, to have half of their beards cut off, why did they not shave everything off?Read More

January 4, 2025

The New Testamentary Church of the living God commenced with official Apostolic headship that nurtured the nascency of the Church into adulthood. At the death the Apostles, pastors e.g. Timothy and Titus began to head each local assembly. The Devil relentlessly perfected his pollution pursuit of the Church. Under the Apostolic care of John, the last of the Apostles, Satan raised Cerintus to pollute the scriptural heart of Church members with his Docetism. Docetic catechizing of Cerintus targeted the debauchment of Christological quiddity. He taught people of the Church that the Christ is just a consciousness, with no real life. That the concept of Christ merely sits on a person and after it has achieved its usefulness leaves. He taught that the Christ came upon Jesus at the Jordan baptism and left him when He went to the cross. Reverend Chris Okotie, very careful not to dabble into faux pas of eisegetical anomaly, will tell you when teaching the Bible, “I cannot give you an Eleventh Commandment.” In one of the General Superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church, W. F. Kumuyi’s teaching on spiritual understanding of wearing earrings, he said, “They knew that those earrings had become like a god, demigod, goddess,” referring to Genesis 35:4. Pastor Kumuyi also taught, saying, “The wearing of mustache and beard could become gods.” Male members of Deeper Life Bible Ministry, headed by W.F. Kumuyi, for this reason, will not allow any jut of beard or the upper lip hair to show.Read More

“Surely I come quickly,” are the words of Jesus. Time must, in reverential bidding of Jesus, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty, even the Express Word of God, hurry up to honour Divine interest. Should this alacrity rouse in us, apprehensive mindset or glorious hope of joy? Get much, more, closer to the LORD God, follow the Word of God, Jesus Christ, as the days get closer to the end of earthly rottenness. 2025 adds up to 9. Nine speaks of pretrial, which God, with Whom you are spiritually related, has taken care of because He loves you. 2025 also has 2 – number for testimony; and 7 – scriptural number for God’s perfection.

CHRISTMAS

December 25, 2024

The eternal Word became flesh to actuate the soteriology. Christmas points to just one thing. It settles Adamic and the angelic conflict with Divine justice. The sinful man has no locus standi before the empyreal court. One of the Members of the Godhead must represent the fallen creature of creationism. Divine greatheartedness looked at the helplessness of man; and knowing that some of Adamic free moral agency would have a heart panting after the Most High, Jesus came to the rescue. This is the quiddity of Christmas. It is by grace: this salvation of the soul of man; and Christmas took care of it. Hallelujah! Read More

DIVORCEMENT (Four)

December 22, 2024

Using the great King Solomon as a precept, Nehemiah’s query is, “If Solomon’s sagacity and influence and his relationship with God will not render his penchant for foreign women guiltless, how can you expect us to tolerate this conjugal illegality?” It is an egregious treachery for a Christian to enter into a marriage with someone known as an unrepentant unbeliever of God’s lines and precepts. Marriage is intended to usher one into the status of authority and maturity. No matter the sincerity that leads one into any marriage, as long as it fails to mirror the Divine pattern, it remains ultra vires simply because you are sincerely wrong. Your act is grossly unwarranted. Was Adam given an option to marry more than one woman? Is Jesus not going to marry just one Woman – the Church? Marrying more than one wife has always been problematic. Abraham did not want Hagar to go even against Divine reasoning. David’s palace became a riotous home. Solomon, the wisest of homo sapiens, got himself plunged into unbelievable idolatrous stupidity. And like the scoffing priests of Isaiah’s old days, some think their intellectualism have placed them on too high a pedestal to go back to the kindergarten littleness of biblical studentship The very minute one agrees to his wrongdoings and asks God for His divine help, everything comes to normalcy. This is all that the LORD God is ever yearning to do: welcome and accept us back as His children and, of course, soteriologically, as the Bride of the Lamb. Lackadaisical approach to marital conditions leads to its possible annulment. A genuine return to God, like the parabolical prodigal son, kills the spirit of divorcement. Amen!Read More

Terrible things are to be expected when one remains bent on a persistence in one’s wrong doing. A wrong spouse is like a one sent on a mission of Satanism. Can it ever be righteous? Some marriages do not mirror the vision and will of God, so, they are billed to hit the rocks. It is quite unlike the marriage between the pristine parents who were made in the likeness and image of God. Jezebel, who ministered Baalism to Israel, was the queen of Israel. She had children for Ahab, the king. The Bible records that the various unrighteous sins of Ahab put together weighed very light compared to the king’s marriage to Jezebel, the Zidonian princess and priestess of Astarte and Baal. That marriage, a goading of Satanism, made to run side by side of true Jehovah worship, destroyed the surviving family of Ahab. Wrong marriages are entrapment of Satanism. Jehu killed all Baal priests that ministered idolatry through Jezebel.Read More

DIVORCEMENT (Two)

December 14, 2024

For God is always looking at the bigger picture when it comes to man’s activities, divorce has no place whatsoever in His established institution. Adam thought not, even for a fraction of a second, of the possibility of separation when his wife made him lose his lordship of the entire world. As God’s oracle, Adam knew what marriage was. Adultery is apostatical. Adultery is idolatrous; it is a wicked proclivity of Satanism. God, through the prophetic office of Moses, warned Israel never to worship any other god, save Jehovah. The act of worship gives a picture of conjugation, where the worshipper is seen as the wife, and the worshipped entity is the husband. When one engages in sexual activity with someone who is not one’s spouse, it is seen in the Scriptural court of legality as an adulterous sinfulness. Going away from the LORD God to fall down in the latria before an idol is outright whoredom. This is why God hates adultery and suffers it to be the ground of divorce. Adultery can only be induced through the tampering of Satanism. The wife beater has derailed. That husband continues to scoff at God’s injunction of “Husbands, love thine wives.” His acts insult the marriage institution of the LORD God, thereby becoming unfit for the conjugal cohabitation. The seditiousness of a wife is not different from the derailed man; her decision not to submit, according to the Bible, is a product of stubbornness.Read More

November 27, 2024

Of this salvation is this facticity that the teachers of the possibility of loss of salvation fail to acknowledge. This salvation is in actual fact a betrothal to the Divinity. If this be scripturally so, why will God put us away? Two verses before this one reads, “Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder” (Matthew 19:6). Will the LORD God’s Omniscience look for a bride whose marriage to the Second Member of the Godhead will end up in termination? Why should God say, “Amen,” to a conjugation that will not mirror what it is from the beginning? Will God not have failed in keeping His marriage, being the Almighty, if a saved soul loses it? These things Cyprian of Carthage, St. Augustine of Hippo and Jacobus Arminius fail to acknowledge before teaching the possibility of a born again Christian not being able to persevere in the journey of Adamic salvation. Does the Author of the soteriology not asseverate, “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28). Can the mortality of my carnal frame carry out any smidgeon of maintenance on this new life in Jesus? If there is something required for my personal sustention of God’s soteriology, it means that I have to continue from where Jesus performed the Golgotha sanguineous sacrificial consummation. The thing is, do I possess the omnipotence that God the Father wielded in the actuation of the soteriological conception? Do I possess the momentum to engage in a personal perseverance?Read More

Augustinian ‘gift of perseverance’ means that only those that God arbitrarily predestined to save will be given the gift to persevere. Why will a good Jehovah God arbitrarily decide to create some people for eternal, hellish damnation? It does not look a smidgeon of the God of the Bible. This is what really happens. God has a faculty that enables Him to see and know absolutely everything that is going to happen. For this simple reason, His Omniscience, knowing who will and will not receive Jesus as Lord and Saviour, those who will do His divine will hear the gospel and be spiritually transformed. It is for the same rationality that God will say, “Jacob I have loved, Esau I have hated.” Cyprian argued that each day of Genesis consisted of 1000 years. “The first seven days in the divine arrangement contain seven thousand years” (Treatises 11:11 [A.D. 250]). Does this make any Scriptural sense at all? What does Mosaic Genesis creation days mean by, “And the evening and the morning were the first day?” The same goes for each of the subsequent second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth days. Is this not clearly a twenty-four hour period for each day? What about the Sabbath, seventh day of God’s rest, was it a whole one thousand years of Sabbath rest? Did it take God one thousand years to create Adam and his wife? How does one explain Genesis 7:24 in the light of Cyprian’s each day consisting of 1,000 years? The verse reads, “And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.”Did Cyprian believe that those days were actually one hundred and fifty thousand years of antediluvian rainfall of the great deluge? How can one bring oneself to believe faulty teachers of Scripture when their bases for loss of salvation remain unscriptural?Read More

Long before Arminius, Saint Augustine of Hippo (354-430 AD) had taught the possibility of losing one’s salvation. Can Saint Augustine who upheld so many unbiblical teachings be trusted? “I should not believe the Gospel except as moved by the authority of the Catholic Church” (St. Augustine, Against the Epistle of Manichaean Called Fundamental, 5, 6). Can Catholicism be more authoritative than the Bible? In fashioning purgatorial establishment of Catholicism, “Temporal punishments are suffered by some in this life only, by some after death, by some both here and hereafter, but all of them before that last and strictest judgment. But not all who suffer temporal punishments after death will come to eternal punishments, which are to follow after that judgment” (St. Augustine of Hippo, Father and Doctor of the Church, The City of God). Purgatory runs contrary to Hebrews 9:27, “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” so, how can this teaching stand, biblically. Antagonism against security of salvation: it spread like wild fire with the teaching of Jacobus Arminius: he got it from Saint Augustine who also received it from Bishop Cyprian of Carthage (c. 210-258 A.D.), one of the so-called Church Fathers– a creation of Catholicism – of whom many of their teachings uphold the illegitimacy of Popery headship of the universal body of Christ. Cyprian believed in infant baptism and infant communion. Cyprian however spoke against the efficiency of baptism done by heretics and insisted on their rebaptism, and he believed that the Eucharist cannot be properly consecrated outside the church. The Catholic Church believes that at the water baptism is when one gets born again, quite contrary to Scripture. Who does one believe, Jesus or the Church Fathers of Catholicism? Has Catholicism more authority than Pauline epistles to the Church?Read More

Honestly, I want to believe that some Christians would want to believe that they did God a favour which, otherwise, would have resulted in the failure which would have chimed reverberations through eternity if they had not stood in the gap of adhering to His call. They probably believe they saved that eternal shame. It will not surprise me if such people think that God would not have had His desire met; and that failure would stare at His Almighty's eternal visage for the rest of His eternal life. They believe they participated in this salvation. Thinking that one has a hand in this Divine salvation leads to believing that this salvation can be lost. Logical trajectory of human cogitation will tend towards the conclusion that a salvation that has human participation can, definitely, slip out of one’s hands if one commits a sin which constitutes a breaking away from God’s covenant. Can salvation be truly insecure? Of salvation, I know of several scriptures that teach irreversibility of soteriology, two of which are Jude 1:1 and 1Corinthians 3:15. Jude makes it clear that this divine salvation is an act of foregoneness. In the eternity past, God the Father had looked into the future; had taken note of those who would, from their hearts, decide to receive Jesus as Lord and Saviour. What did He do, according to Scriptural revelation? He wound round those people, even before the creation of Adam, what the Greek calls hagiazo, setting us apart, from the evil world of Satanism, unto Himself. We were reverentially cleansed even before we got officially regenerated spiritually, in His Majestic sight. Did the LORD God stop there? He did not. He went a spiritual step ahead to tēreō us in the fashion of refrigeratory custody in Christ, ensuring being guarded from loss – this is strictly a matter of divine maintenance of our salvation.Read More

The casting of lots is Old Testamentary form of enquiring from the God of the Bible. The question here is, why would they find it expedient to fill an office Jesus left unattended to in all the forty days He was with them after His resurrection? How come none of the disciples approached Jesus with a good candidate of a discipleship suggestion? The One Who sees the hearts of men chooses who to work with Him. Methinks it is strictly the prerogative of the Author of salvation to choose His Apostles? None knows like the Lord, of Whom it is written in John 6:70, “Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?” Why would the Lord, Who knows it all add unto Himself, the devil? Like every free moral agent of Adamic progeny, Judas must be given an opportunity to choose between the Light and the darkness. Judas represented the ultimate Antichrist, who must hear the gospel of salvation, make a choice whether to continue to follow Lucifer, and perish or come unto Jesus, after having laboured in the religion of Satanism, heavily laden, and receive rest. There is another reason for allowing an unbelieving Judas Iscariot in the Kingdom of God fold.

Matthew 9:20 “And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:” this is the first time ‘twelve' is mentioned in the New Testament. She came behind Jesus, as Reverend Chris Okotie taught, because she is the Israel of the Old Testamentary order. None received eternal salvation that made use of recumbent animal as the sacrificial element. The LORD of twelve was using the woman of issue of blood to transit from the Old to the New Testamentary Order when He had to visit the twelve year old girl, the daughter of Jairus. The sick woman who had spent all she had on her ailment signified Israel, from this theological understanding, as being badly haemorrhagic spiritually. Twelve, being our Emmanuel, has removed the stiffness of religious preclusion. Twelve, having to do with mankind, came with healing and restoration. Without the essence of twelve, we can do nothing (John 15:5). Five is the number of grace. Jesus is the discernibility of the grace of God to all nations, Whose earthly appearance, on account of the soteriology, is inevitable. The grace of Jesus translates into the salvific potency of twelve, His number. A careful study of the testimonial story of the feeding of the five thousand will prove that, with the inclusion of women and children, there were probably 18,000 people at that crusade. The remaining baskets full of fishes and loaves points to the superabundance of twelve in divine Providence: socially, physically and spiritually.Read More

The Messianic reality of establishment coming from the given Son further establishes the Incarnation. The birth of the child underscores the emergence of the Second Man – the second six or twelve –, the Last Adam, being the most enigmatic One to tread upon the surface of terra firma. The Lord from the Rainbow Administration of the empyrean assizes cannot be born: for a being of Adamic procreation begins life in the womb. The Christ, Whose goings forth is from eternality of the timeless past, can only be given, ergo, the Incarnation. Amen. His Incarnation brought the timelessness of the Christ into the time of our world. Seven days for a week accounts for the perfection of His being. Twelve number of months for every year makes Him the Owner of our days. In the heavenly assizes, there are twenty-four lesser thrones forming an arc round the empyrean Majesty. The twenty-four elders represent the perfect Church that does not fail to give the true latria to the Most High Jehovah, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. The first time the number twelve appears in Scripture is in Genesis 14:4 “Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.” This number of soteriological significance easily translates service. Chedorlaomer’s tyranny forced five kingdoms under its domination for twelve years. They failed to stay liberated because they bypassed Christ, the true Owner of the number twelve, believing in their physical warring strength. It took the number of grace – five – for Abraham, friend of Christ, the LORD of Psalm 24, to redeem Lot from Chedorlaomer’s grip. They were five kingdoms only in physical numeration, denying the power of the grace of God, hence, they failed to break successfully from the tyrannical grip of Chedorlaomer.Read More

Two Dimensions Of God’s Nature (Five)

One of the comforting things about God is His remembering stance. In Genesis 8:1 God remembered Noah and the living things of the ark, and made sure they came out to live their normal lives again. In Genesis 19:29, God remembered what His conversation with Abraham concluded on and saved Lot in the annihilation of Sodom and Gomorrah. In Genesis 30:22 God remembered Rachel, who had been barren for some years. In the Book of Exodus 2:24 God heard the cries of Israel when they wallowed in Egyptian bondage, because He remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God did not forget His promise to Sarah. Genesis 21:1 “And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.” God knew what atrocities man would perpetrate, and what looks like a grieving surprise to the Almighty is certainly not so. Nothing takes Him by surprise. Knowing that God feels what we feel will draw a wise person very close to Him and this knowledge should bind a wise person to the God, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Sharing an attribute with the Deity is mind-blowing awesomeness! The Bible tells us that God did rest.Read More

God never goes into any business and loses because He, the LORD God, does not commit errors. This is the huge picture Bible readers fail to acknowledge: it is all about Jesus and the salvation of mankind. The right person must occupy the Israeli patriarchy that must produce the Saviour of the world: this is the biggest theological deal. The blessings of the first born, having been given to a manipulator, and ostensibly having the hand of God, what should a reasonable Esau do? Congratulate his twin brother, of course, for receiving favour of God. He should be ready to work with him to make things easy for the next in line of divine mission. Marriage to ungodliness is unacceptable; Esau married from Ishmael simply to spite Isaac, the man of God. The things God hates, He knew beforehand, Esau would love. God, ergo, hated Esau, an Antichrist ambassador of Lucifer. How can one be so consumed in audacity and fail woefully to acknowledge that there is no way anyone will disrespect the Holy One of Israel, Who indubitably wields the unconquerable Omnipotence, is also the matchless Omniscience and is the unimaginable Omnipresence as well, and the offending idiot will go without punishment?Read More
