MARY: THE ROLE MODEL FOR CHRISTIAN WOMEN PART 2
Now in celestial church what is going on, is it the current Celestials that are celebrating the holy marry day or it has been in place since the old times. Let us look into the constitution, the holy sacrament clause 99. Holy Mary day is one of the sacrament and it as important as what we do during the Easter and wash our feet so also is the holy Mary. It is full service like Sunday service.
“Among all other sacraments holy Mary day, it is in commutation of appearance of the holy Mary to the pastor on 15th day of July 1977, the significance of holy Mary in celestial church of Christ faith can be traced to the earliest days of celestial church for the very first spiritual hymn that was given to the celestial church through one of the early prophetess of the church called woli sata. Hymn 762 let us be on our feet to sing the hymn given to the church.
O ye brethren in Christ, Raise ye up this song
And ye all listen, to voice of Jehovah
Of what reward have all ye, In this celestial church?
Of what reward have all ye, In this great congregation?
That Mary our mother, come to accompany us
That the good Divine one, come to accompany us. Amen
If we still analyze this hymn it is directed to brethren in Christ, we that have been redeemed and the body of Christ that lift up your song and listen to what Jehovah himself is saying, not man nor the angels asking what reward is it to be in this church, the reward of being in this fellowship of congregation. We should take cognizance of this point that celestial is just one congregation on its own which is the reason why we are not allowed to have sub-groups with other churches. The reason why I keep warning members of this parish not to form other social groups within the church because reverend pastor Oshoffa said that whosoever divided the church so shall his or her home be divided but many of our members when I speak against such divisions in the church.
The reward of being in this congregation is: one that our mother Mary may be our model and co-ordinate and that is the first role model given to celestial church as a guide to our activities. Therefore take note of all that I have said about Mary from the beginning, a steadfast woman who knows the glory that till when Jesus died because she knows the glory that is in his child. Many of us are in Celestial Church but do not know the glory in the church and therefore could not stand in firm to the end. Even some do not know who he or she is let alone knowing the church all he does is come for anointment, but if you know your call then you will know his promises for you the end. Mary is our role model so when tribulations or troubles came we should know that we have Christ who is with us because he will see us through and all who a sowing seed with tears will reap or harvest it with jot.
Secondly: that the good divine spirit reward that we may be led by the legacy of being faithful, endurance, persistence, believing God that all that was said will come to pass. That this Holy Spirit which Jesus that came upon Mary may accompany us. The constitution continues saying that significantly, 30years later on the fifteenth day of July pastor was in trance, saw himself climbing a number of steps until he got to the plain full of fallen leaves and then he sighted a fair white lady, from top to toe she was clouded in blur apparel, and standing in a posture as if shading something away from him. Then the pastor found himself descending a step until he sighted a church from which a reverend father emerged and bow in honor from him repeatedly; then the pastor found himself ascending again back to the spot where he found the fair lady, this time the fair lady open-up to show that which was shading away earlier from him and that was a baby who was with crown and she said pointing to the baby saying
“Jesus is holy spirit
He is a pure heart
He is the king of life
Anyone who wants to serve Jesus must trek the holy path”
She continues ‘told the pastor that he should remain undoubted by the color of the skin because race is of no significance in the things of the spirit. She added that it is because of your holy mind that we dwell in you. He showed him too white people (Mary and the reverend father) saying that the founders colour (black) is of no significance but his holy mind. Take note of the statement ‘ holy mind’ which means the spirit that dwells in holy Mary, Jesus and Jehovah himself his in the founder and she said whosoever want to worship in this church must walk the righteous path in our worship and toward fellow human. I want to challenge you at this point that we should have a pure mind towards others not judging others without evidence so you won’t sin against God, know that everyone has got his or her cross to bear do not gossip. I move further “exactly a year after the incident described above the pastor fell ill during which it was spiritually revealed in trance that due recognition should be accorded to the holy Mary in celestial church of Christ by commemorating the above incident annually” pastors was up to the point of death because of the holy Mary celebration which we have neglected. Do you remember a time in the book of exodus chapter 4 verse 24 when Moses was returning to Egypt something happened and the Lord tried to kill Moses because he did not circumcise his son due to the fact that he had lived in a strange land a long time and whosoever do not keep God commandment cannot work with him so the lord wanted to kill Moses but the Lord opened the mind of his wife Zipporah to know she took a sharp knife, cut off the foreskin of her son and touched Moses with it and then said “ you are a husband of blood to me” so also it happened to the pastor he should celebrate that revelation. If God has done something good in your life you should take note of the date and offer thanks as the year runs bye.
Ever since we have been celebrating the Holy Mary on all first Fridays of July which must not be canceled. If it is in other churches you will see how people will bring different items to the designed seat of Mary for the day in other to be blessed. Mary is the blessed and who will not want people to remember him or her the same way. There if you want to be remembered for good by your children that show the fruit of a blessed ‘ and that is why I said yesterday that the god of celestial has perfectly designed the church, but we the worshippers do not know. All is left in our hands because the god of celestial has given this church unto us.
I say that God is performing wonders in this church there is no problem or happiness in this world that can happen to man that does not have is special service or song to go with such in celestial. I want us to know that this is a festival of a blessing and joy whichever way you see it but the things we ignore God uses them to bless. This celebration is still on till Sunday by God grace therefore prays that such blessing and Glory will come into your life and continue to guide you.
