THE GREAT COMMISSION/PANACEA by Leader Olumba Olumba Obu
PREFACE
As our Lord Jesus Christ had said to the disciples in Matthew 28: 19-20 “Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen; In the same vein the sole spiritual Head of the Universe, the Promised Comforter, the Supernatural Teacher. Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, has commissioned all His elects all Brotherhood brethren to spread far and wide – to cites, interlands and all habitable crannies of the earth, and disseminate the good news that Jehovah God and His Christ has come to established on earth. Therefore, mankind should eschew sinfulness, abide by the dictates of God and practise the virtues of love, mercy, tolerance and oneness of all mankind so that the divine philosophy of one flock under one shepherd may be actualized. This gospel will serve as a guide to missionaries, crusaders, full-time workers and all categories of brethren in the vineyard.
THE GREAT COMMISSION, therefore, is a Must Read; a guide and moral code for the elect, especially at this dicey period to the dawn of the New Millennium. Thank You Father Everlasting Gospel Centre.
THE GREAT COMMISSION/PANACEA CHAPTER ONE
FIRST LESSON: LUKE 10:1-2
After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. Therefore said he unto them, “The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.”
SECOND LESSON: LUKE 4:18-19
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal that broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
GOLDEN TEXT: LUKE 9:59-62
And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. And Jesus said unto him, “No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom to God.”
INTRODUCTORY SPIRITUAL CHORUS:
Foxes have holes and birds of the air have their nests
but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head.
THE GREATEST TASK IN THE KINGDOM:
Beloved, the texts read to you and the lyrics of the song are of utmost importance and constitute the work which we have been asked to do. This is therefore the greatest task. The purpose of this gospel is to revive your slumbering spirit and rekindle the urge in you who had backslided.
THE CRUSADERS’ COMMISSION:
It is pathetic to hear that some of you are still asking the question “What is Brotherhood”? This depicts that millions do not know Brotherhood because they do not hearken to God’s injunctions and are not attentive to the teachings which would enable them understand the meaning of Brotherhood. The question now is, who is to preach to them? The crusaders are hereby commissioned to go out and let them all know all the tenets of Brotherhood and her doctrines. Whoever wants to save himself, his father or mother should go into the vineyard. Should you want to save your community, country or the entire world, you had better enter into the vineyard for that is the only panacea.
THE REAL WORK OF GOD:
Recall that during the advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, He did not come to cultivate or sell but came to spread the good tidings to mankind and to sacrifice Himself for the salvation of the entire world. Erecting mansions does not constitute an important work of God. Similarly, purchasing land, dancing or singing is not important in the sight of God; but what is important is spreading to the world the news of the impending doom and their fate in the unfolding situation. Personally, I believe fervently that if there would be anyone who would be ready to disseminate this gospel to the entire world, all will embrace this kingdom and none would be left, even an infant.
THE NEW KINGDOM’S MESSAGE:
The news of this kingdom is that, Brotherhood is not a church, prayer house, spiritual house, a private residence, secret society or a thing that glorifies man, but is the sum total of all the creation of God and God has come Himself as was promised; to gather His sheep into one flock under one shepherd in love, peace and harmony. No war, segregation or sin exist and all will dwell in a problem-free environment. This is the good tidings of joy you are being given.
Let the First Lesson be re-examined.
FIRST LESSON: LUKE 10:1-2
After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come:-Therefore said he unto them, the harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
THE REAPERS ARE FEW:
Have you heard that? About seventy labourers were appointed but they could not do the work; again He sent them in twos into cities to work, yet they failed. He then had to appoint another seventy labourers and then He said unto them “The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest”. (Luke 10: 2) God has come to unite the entire world into one flock under one shepherd. The whites and every other persons are here commissioned on this task and it is incumbent upon all the creation of God to participate fully by engaging themselves in the harvest of the kingdom. All hands must be on deck.
THE GOD OF ALL CREATION:
The time of salvation has come; the time of peace, joy, or knowing our God and our work has come. This is therefore that appointed time for us to go ahead and accomplish the task with great favour. God has not come specially for Nigeria, Africa, Europe, Asia or any particular race, but for all His creation and all that is referred to as man in heaven, on earth, beneath the earth, in the sky, in the waters etc; because His glorious moment has come and we are all His children and disciples.
A CALL TO DILIGENT SERVICE:
It is therefore incumbent on us to spread this good tidings to the entire world, informing them that His time has come, we I should seek for Him alone, accept Him and work for Him. Inform the world that His immense love, joy, peace, grace, oneness and mercy has spread and is telling on us. This clarion call for service is not only to the visioners, prophets, Bishops, Elders, Women or Men but unto all His creation. He has called us to live and remain in oneness, in love, peace, harmony and to abstain from segregation, but go into the vineyard and work for Him in love and bring salvation to the world as we are saved. This situation could be likened unto a hunter who gets into the forest and kills an elephant; it is perceived that the carcass of the Elephant is owned by the hunter while in the forest but once it is taken home, it becomes the property of the community. Same is Brotherhood, while only one or two prophets saw it, it is now a global affair.
We should therefore go out and inform the world of the bliss and, peace in this kingdom, that they may come and partake in it. Ponder over the area of the world and judge if Nigeria alone can accomplish this task. Make also, a personal assessment of the United States and draw an inference if her people alone can accomplish this task. It is stated that, the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdom of God and His Christ. There is none who would not wish to inherit this kingdom nor become a child of this kingdom. Let us therefore spread this good tidings to all parts of the world. Let us take it as a serious business and not joke over it. There should be no segregation, arrogation of posts to people such as pastor or whatever; but all hands must be on deck for in so doing, we all shall partake of the bliss of this kingdom.
ALL ARE SAVED:
Truly speaking, there is none that is unhappy over this message we should unanimously pray that the Father’s will be made manifest. There is no child of perdition. Christ died for all, so every creation of God must abide and partake in this salvation of God. We .are now mandated to go through jungles, rivers, oceans, forests, and all nooks and crannies of the world t 1 informing them that.the time has come that all should wake up l, and receive this salvation. We are all saved, we are all one brethren, our father has come bringing with Him our riches. He has come with peace, love, wealth oneness, eternal life and His glory has manifested in earnest. This salvation is not limited to any sex, but is universal. The First Lesson should be re-examined since this is no more a hidden thing or that which is meant for a particular group or race but for the entire world.
FIRST LESSON: LUKE 10: 1-2
After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
EQUALITY AND LOVE: THE TERMS OF THE KINGDOM:
Beloved, have you heard that? Is it stated that one person was sent? No! It is said that two and two were sent to places. No designation or class was mentioned. No child of God, Pastor or Bishop was mentioned, rather two each from the list were sent. Anything about God is universal and belongs to all. The problem is that some think that they are at the helm of affairs; this is not true. The terms here are, equality and love. No sectionalism, no fighting, envy, jealousy etc. but love, peace, oneness, equality and equal rights. We therefore have to disseminate this message to the world that God has come. Let the Second Lesson be re-examined.
SECOND LESSON: LUKE 4:18-19
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted; to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
GOD IS OUR FATHER:
We are to let the world know that God is our Father, that He desires that all should be in peace and harmony, without division. That, the world shall use one currency, one language and do one work; there shall be uniformity in our mode of operation. God is our Father, He desires that we abide in unity and go into the vineyard so that His glory be made manifest and the philosophy of one flock under one shepherd be actualized.
OBLIGATION OF THE ANOINTED:
Disseminating this message is therefore our primary task. Already, He has completed the work Himself, we have to learn from Him that unto the anointed, there should be no war, quarrel, division, hatred, man or woman, black or white, but love, eschew cheating, malice, claiming of rights, struggling for positions of authority etc. Rather all our words should be one and we ought to unite and spread this gospel all over the world. That is our first task. We should reveal to the world that God does not desire that there be division in the entire world, also that the heaven is His throne while the earth is His footstool. After knowing this, what would you struggle again for, being that everything is created by Him. He created man, owns the land and all other things. What are we struggling for? Let us try our best to agree with Him in oneness and love. This is our primary assignment.
THE DOCTRINES OF THE KINGDOM:
After observing this, keep also His commandments. He has instructed that we should receive baptism, repent and follow after Him for He has come as a Father of all sinners. We should therefore forsake sins and be born anew for the earth and the fullness thereof belong to Him and all-that He has belongs to us. We should remain in peace, love, oneness, abhor quarreling, fighting and hatred for in so doing, we shall be His and every one shall appreciate this lifestyle.
FIRST WITNESS:
REVELATION 11:15-18
And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ and he shall reign for ever and ever.
And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their faces, and worshipped God.
Saying, we give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
THE NEED FOR DOCUMENTATION:
All these messages are expected to be documented. It should be written and sent to places. Copies of this should be in thousands or millions and be circulated to all places, all communities so that every one would get himself involved in this work and in so doing, everyone would know where He is. Everyone would know where He is standing and as a result, there would be no quarreling, judgement, war and division but everything would be in abundance. Such as money, wealth and everyone shall be content in his position.
(Re-examine the Golden Text)
GOLDEN TEXT: LUKE 9:59-62
And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead; but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
THE GLOBAL TASK:
Beloved, have you seen that? This task is not for two or three persons but for the entire human race, the heavens, the earth, angels, man and all creations must as a necessity abide by this injunction for in it dwelleth perfection. Give no excuse like “I should first go and bury my father” for this shall debar you from serving God when all hands are expected to be on deck. Wake up in earnest and involve-yourself in this task far at the end you all shall be witnesses to the joy in heaven and the peace here on earth. This joy and peace shall be inexpressible as its kind has never existed on this plane of manifest.
THE ONLY NAME TO WORSHIP:
It was stated that in the last days, the universes shall be inherited by one person and only one. God shall rule. This explains the reason why Christ prayed thus: “Our Father who art in heaven, “Hallowed be thy name”. The emphasis is on “NAME”. We do not worship any other name or man but that same God. We do not worship any tree, black or white man, but God and His Son alone. Let us join our hands together for through this we shall be known as the children of God.
THE IMPORTANCE OF UNITY:
Whichever house that chooses solitude is ruined. Any community that is divided is ruined. Therefore, being that everything done here is godly, let no one do anything of his volition nor be disobedient. Do not claim that you have your personal business or work but let us all come together, join hands with others and work towards the realization of this goal.
SPIRITUAL CHORUS:
My vineyard I have planted, labourers I do have,
Get ye into my vineyard and work because my field is white
SECOND WITNESS:
LUKE 19:26-27
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him. But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
THIRD WITNESS:
JOHN 10:15-20
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and L lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
THE DIVINE COMMUNISM:
The word of God has never fallen without fulfilling great tasks. It was stated that at the end, there shall be one flock under one shepherd. This is that appointed time. Let us all team up and work, do not personalize it because it is neither a one-man-business nor a private affair. It is not even the type of work that a million persons can accomplish because the world is so large and God does not desire that any man should perish because of the blood shed by His son. It is said “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come”. (Matthew 24:13-14)
THE PRE-REQUISITE FOR SALVATION:
Beloved, that is what we have. It is stated that whoever shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. If we do not preach this gospel to all nooks and crannies of the world, how would we be saved and would the end come? A local adage has it that a child who does not allow his mother to have peace of mind and comfort, would not have same himself. It is even better for us because the more we work, the more we receive blessings. In this way, let us be dedicated.
FOURTH WITNESS:
1 PETER 3:13-14
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
I would not be tedious with you because Christ at the end of every preachments always said “He who has ears, let him hear”. Similarly, I am concluding that he who has ears to hear, let him hear what the spirit has imparted unto the entire world. May God bless His holy words – Amen.
