Archbishop David Irefin is an ordained shepherd of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. In this interview with OYIBO SALIHU, this professor of economics believes love is the antidote to all societal ills outside which the current sufferings in the land would continue.
At the moment, there are great tribulations, sufferings, anguish, death, and economic woes globally. As a cleric, how do you think the world can be saved?
The Scriptures are fulfilled in the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. The expected Kingdom of God promised by our Lord Jesus Christ has been firmly established by the Sole Spiritual Head of the universe leader, Olumba Olumba Obu. The Bible in the book of Dan 2: 44 says, “And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.”
With the establishment of this new Kingdom of God on earth and the enthronement of love as the King of kings and Lord of lords on April 14, 2001, by the Ancient of Days, Leader Olumba Olumba Obu, it requires that people do not behave anyhow, anymore.
Again, Dan 7:13-14 says, “I saw in the night visions and behold, one like the Son of Man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought him near before Him. And there was given Him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.”
From the year 2001 onward, love has become the only constitution to rule over individuals, families, clans, villages, local governments, states, nations, water, the air, animals, angels, spirits, fishes, etc. At the moment, there is a great spiritual war against sin in families, villages, towns, cities, nations and continents. This is because light cannot agree with darkness; neither can love and hatred agree. The reign of our Lord Jesus Christ begins from the year 2001 and His rulership is forever and ever. All those who do not possess love towards one another would never succeed in any undertaking.
By extension, all countries and organisations and institutions that refuse to possess love would never succeed in their undertakings. Whether the entire world likes it or not, it must practise love for one another. At the moment, there are great tribulations, sufferings, anguish, death, economic woes, calamities and sicknesses among human families as a result of disobedience to the King of kings and Lord of Lords who rules in love and righteousness.
Unfortunately, the human family is searching for solutions to these problems by approaching scientists, astrologers, politicians, religious leaders and mermaids instead of going to the King of kings in humility and reverence, confessing their sins and possessing love. Then the King of kings and Lord of lords would then provide the inhabitants with the blueprint that would solve their problems.
This is not the time to struggle again to acquire worldly wealth because the kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdom of Jehovah God and His Christ and He will reign forever and ever. The reign of God is forever; so if you love God, you must love all His creations. Therefore, all those who don’t possess love from now would labour in vain. The current lack of peace in the family and all the sufferings in the land is traceable to lack of love. This is because the Word of God says, “We know that we have passed from death to life because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.”
God has only one commandment and that is ‘love for one another’. Death, sickness, poverty and afflictions have no power over all those who love one another. This generation is not the one for somebody to deceive you. If you are a member of any religious organisation, you will be saved if you possess love for one another.
This is the time of judgement and election of those who practise love for one another. Therefore, if you do not love your enemy, it means you will not be elected. Whatever may be your spiritual gifts, status, political office, if you do not love one another, it will profit you nothing.
With love all your problems would vanish and you will start to witness good health, economic prosperity and everlasting life. That is why the Brotherhood of The Cross and Star is celebrating His Holiness Olumba Olumba Obu, The King of kings and Lord of lords who has been enthroned by The Ancient of Days to rule heaven and earth in peace and righteousness. Rev 12:5 says, “She bore a male child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her child was caught up to God and His throne.”
What really is the interpretation of that text?
There is no need to be running to trees, rocks or juju for help. There is no need to run to the United Nations, European Union and United States or the Arab World for help. None of these can help Nigeria or humanity out of the present predicament. However, the Man-child is endowed with all powers in heaven and on earth to rule in righteousness. Just as the government of the world has the armed forces, the police, institutions such schools, colleges and the courts, so also are they in the spiritual world.
Imagine if this Man-child gives an order, all the angels must obey Him. He can order an angel to go and arrest a particular person, and at another time can also order the person to be released. In summary, all the angels all over the earth and in heaven are under His control. Therefore, all the punishments and afflictions besetting Nigeria and the entire world are as a result of the blasphemous words spoken against Him. Examine this Man-child that all the angels in heaven and on earth bow down to and worship. It becomes unwise for Nigerians and in general the human family to speak evil words or joke with such a person. I want Nigerians and the entire human family to re-examine that text again.
Who is this Man-child? Is he Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob or John the Baptist?
This Man-child has been sent forth to rule the world with an iron rod. The iron rod signifies a kingship position. He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. All angels, human beings, spirits and all creations both visible and invisible are under His control. He has come to assume His reign on this earth. There is nothing that exists in this world without His design; everything is according to His design. Our duty, therefore, is to cast all our problems on Him, believing faithfully that He is with us. There is no need to lament, cry or feel miserable. It does not make sense for any government or individual to attempt to help themselves in any way. Believe in Him alone and all your problems would be solved.
Our problems are traceable to faithlessness and disobedience. This is not the time for anyone to continue to be angry, quarrel or blaspheme God’s name or continue to disobey Him. He has come to save all and requires nothing, not even a stick of candle from us. Let all the inhabitants of Nigeria and the entire world cast all their hopes and beliefs in Him. He is the only Saviour. His divine manifestation has eradicated fear, doubts, selfishness and all evil tendencies. Whatever your problem may be, call upon His name with thanks and He will answer you. His presence is not only felt in Nigeria, Africa or the physical plane; he is everywhere, He is a holy being and we have to be as holy as He is.
The Father has come into the world in a big way to rule and reign. This is the reason science, religion and societies have failed humanity. Therefore, this is not the time for people to cause trouble, protest and riot, imprison or kill others. This is not the time for rulers to force themselves on the people; God is the real owner of the Presidency and other offices and He gives these offices to those He will. Let the inhabitants of the world remain calm and be obedient to God and watch Him unfold His divine plans in this generation. He has brought love, joy, peace, truth, glory and all the good things. This is true because the manifestation of the Man-child has come to render worldly wisdom and knowledge useless.
From now until eternity, only those who receive and rejoice in this love would witness peace, joy, economic boom and progress. It’s Him alone, the Ancient of Days empowered before the foundation of the world, to rule in peace and righteousness over the created and uncreated things. From now till eternity, solutions to human family problems will never come from the United Nations, European Union, America, Arab World or any other organisations for that matter, because they are not favoured by God to rule and reign over God’s creation.
