REVEREND CHRIS OKOTIE (one)

The ebullience of Rev. Chris Okotie has continued to unravel the mystery of the Lord Jesus Christ, using God's own protocol, the Bible. At the diamond age of sixty, this June 16th of 2018, he is still waxing strong in the pedagogical dissemination of scriptural veracity. This, none can take away from the one who goes by the sobriquet, 'My Prince' or 'My Pastor' by Householders i.e. Church members.Read More

I DON’T WANT TO MISS HEAVEN! (III)

What is the connection between the ‘I am’ and the shepherd? Psalm 23 opens with “The LORD is my Shepherd” where the title ‘LORD’ is Yhovah (yeh-ho-vaw') ‘1. (the) self-Existent or Eternal 2. Jehovah, Jewish national name of God.’ In Psalm 80 the first verse reads: “Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.” If the Shepherd of this verse is not Jehovah God, then Jesus never trod upon the surface of this terra firma. So, when Jesus declared, “I am the good shepherd” the definite article points in the direction of the One no Israelite would feign not to know: the Almighty LORD God of Israel! Amen!Read More

I DON’T WANT TO MISS HEAVEN! (II)

2Corinthians 5:21, “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” The auxiliary ‘hath’ perfects the main verb ‘made’ which in the Greek is poieo (poy-eh'-o): ‘to make or do {in a very wide application, more or less direct; properly refers to a single act}.’ The Bible does not use another differing ‘made’ prasso (pras'-so) meaning: ‘to practice, i.e. perform repeatedly or habitually.’ The righteousness which the Lord ‘made’ for us is a once and forever righteousness. No one needs to do anything about this righteousness again, in fact any human righteousness will only pollute what Jesus has perfectly made.Read More

I DON’T WANT TO MISS HEAVEN! (I)

"For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4) When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory" [Colossians 3:3-4]. The word 'hid' is kruptō (kroop'-to) to conceal (properly by covering).' The righteousness that marks us out as Christians is veritably a clothing and Jesus is essentially the covering. We do not have in our possession any inherent righteousness. And the reality on the scriptural ground is that only this same Jesus has the capability of the competence to keep us in this state of Godly righteousness. We have the same life as Jesus for we are, in the strictest sense, in this righteous journey together for it says that: "Christ, who is our life." Amen. Read More

John 13:13 (part 1)

So, when Jesus said, "for so I am," the intimation here is simply, "for so Jehovah." 'Lord', in the Greek, is the same as the Old Testamentary Yahweh. This is the grand revelatory import! The Lord Jesus did suffer them to address Him as 'Lord' just because, the wholesome truth is that He happens to be the 'I AM' of their forefathers. He is the Supreme Ruler of the entire universe! This was not a case of an arrogation of falsehood of identity. "Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am" (John 13:13). Amen!Read More

THE LORD OF EXODUS (part 2)

The Bible teaches, "And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped" [Exodus 34:8]. Could Moses have bowed in obeisant worship of an angel? Jehovah alone deserves the description of "Awesome!!" None else can be defined as: 'inspiring an adorable reverence, and fear mingled with wonder!' Who? Selah.Read More

LUCIFER’S DESIDERATION: God of gods (3)

Is witchcraft not truly global? Its operations is older than man. Does Satan himself not sit atop all forms of wizardry as its god? He is the founder of all esoteric cults. From Cain's enclave in the eastern Eden of 'Nod' to the well-established Nimrodic tower of Babel, the Satanic beat went throbbingly well as diabolically planned in the world's first super-power Egypt. 'Nod' means 'wandering (of aimless fugitive), exile, and vagrancy.'Read More

LUCIFER’S DESIDERATION: God of gods (2)

Purgatory. Just why this unscriptural indoctrination of purgatory when the Bible unequivocally teaches, "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" [John 3:3]? Baby Jesus must be tied to Mary, mother of God, queen of the saints, queen of the angels or much better still "queen of heaven!" (Jeremiah 44:17). Will this baby (Jesus) never be weaned? John saw Him on the island of Patmos and what does the Bible record? Revelation 1:17 reads, "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:" This is Jesus, the Jehovah of Israel!Read More

LUCIFER’S DESIDERATION: God of gods (1)

He thrives in the game of mendacity. The truth is that he cannot do otherwise. The path of credibility leads only to goodness, where Jehovah reigns supreme. Goodness nauseates what Lucifer had constituted for himself. Ergo, he trekked himself into the realm of obliquity. "I will give you kingdoms." "You will be gods to be worshipped!" The overwhelming potency of Lucifer's temptation was too much for the, already derailed, credulous angels. To their annihilation they followed the fraud of Satanism. Amen!Read More

LESSONS TO BE LEARNT FROM EASTER (i.e. PASCHAL or PASSOVER) part 1

It was of utmost significance that Jesus would take them to Gethsemane to pray. Gethsemane means: ‘oil press,’ emblematic of the unction of the Holy Spirit, the LORD God seated in the holiest of the Temple, and who would eventually be sent to empower the Church. Jesus had to take them back to the Garden of Eden, where man’s sin commenced. His number is twelve. It was apropos that one of them would misbehave so that He would complete the numerical twelve. When He said, “Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. 37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee (John 26:36-37), Jesus left the first group of 8 of the disciples in a spot. The second group of 3, and the third consisted of 1 of Him, alone.Read More

Jehovah’s Witness Myopic View Of Jesus (VII)

He is both God and man: the son of man and the Son of God. Theologically it is called the hypostatic union. This is where God and man merge, forming an unprecedented compound of Jesus Christ. As a man, He is limited in wisdom, knowledge and power. As Christ, He is the Almighty, the wonderful everlasting Father. In Revelation 1:8 He calls Himself 'Almighty,' which is pantokratōr (pan-tok-rat'-ore) in Greek and it means: 'the all ruling, that is, God (as absolute and universal sovereign).' Isaiah announced Him as 'Wonderful' in chapter 9 verse 6. It is the Hebrew pele' (peh'-leh): 'a miracle.'Read More

Jehovah’s Witness Myopic View Of Jesus (VI)

Every verbalism that depicts Christological bankruptcy is a betrayal of abject ignorance. Alpha to Omega speaks of wordage and utterance. Alpha, being the first of Greek letters, makes Jesus the first to know before God can be known. What about from beta (the 2nd Greek letter) to psi (the 23rd or 2nd to the last letter)? Jesus fills it for: does the Bible not teach that, "And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence" in Colossians 1:18?

Ask yourself why He should throw at His disciples, the conundrum of John 14:10, "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?" The phrase 'I am' is, interestingly the Greek egō (eg-o') esti (es-tee'). Esti is the third person singular of eime. Eime speaks more of 'existence' than of 'being.' Egō eime is exactly what the Septuagint explains God's response to Moses' question of Exodus 3:1, "And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?" Why would Jesus arrogate I AM THAT I AM to Himself; when this epithet is the same as Jehovah!Read More

February 23, 2018

Too stubborn to give in to a superior argument based on scriptural fact the avowed disciples of Charles Taze Russell contend still with Proverbs 8:22 to prove that Christ was definitely an entity of creationism. "The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old" [Proverbs 8:22]. Qânâh (kaw-naw') is the Hebrew word for 'possess' and it means: 'to erect, that is, create; by extension to procure, especially by purchase (causatively sell); by implication to own.' Is the possession wisdom? If the LORD had to possess wisdom before embarking upon all His creative works, therefore, an urgent need to create wisdom for Himself arose, can these people not see the implications of the portentous blasphemy? It portends the lack of wisdom on God's part before creating anything. One who is deficient in wisdom is indubitably dumb. Is this what Jehovah God is?Read More

“…and upon this rock I will build my church”. This is the first time the word ‘Church’ is recorded in scripture, in Matthew 16:18. It is called ekklesia, made of two Greek words: ek (out of, from, by, away from) and kaleo (to call, invite, summon). Ekklesia (ek-klay-see’-ah) means: ‘congregation, assembly, a group of people...Read More
