Celestial Church is not a secret cult
DELIVERED BY Snr. Evang. Williams Ojo
Source: SHADOW of the Light magazine
November 1988
Jesus said in John 20:17 "but go to my brethren and say to them, I am
ascending to my father and your father, to my God and your God."
There is nothing occultist or demonic in these and other practices on the church
Jehovah is the secret name of God revealed in Ex 6:3, the elect angels is
captained by Michael.
It is true that we in the Celestial Church can not explain how miracles are
performed in the church world over but we know that "We can do all things
in him who strengthens us" Phil 4:13. How do you explain when an
unexpected three persons are commanded to take a mad man to the stream to bathe
and he walks back to the church a normal human being quite sane? Whether
people believe it or not, the Celestial Church of Christ is neither a cult nor
demonic. Apostle Paul had this to say to the doubting Romans Romans 3:
3&4.
For what if some did not believe? Shall their unbelief make the
faith of God without effect? v.4 -- God forbid; Yea, let God be true but
every man a liar.
There are human witnesses who had come in personal contact with the Lord
Jesus confirming to them that Celestial Church of Christ is real and not of
man-made or of the demon at all. I shall give only for witnesses and leave
the others for the future.
- Snr. Evang. David Adeniyi died in 1995 when he was the Ondo State
Evangelist. The Lord Jesus Christ who introduced HIMSELF as I AM THE
LIGHT. It happened on 23rd June, 1972 on Indanre Hill, a town about 20
miles from Akure
Jesus who came as an old man appeared to the then Leader David Adeniyi of
the only Celestial Church in Benin City then who was visiting a fried at
Idanre at the time. The man was already on the heel when leader and
his host arrived. The man faced DA and told him he was a descendant of
Abraham and a levite and that D.A. like the LIGHT OF GOD. The old man
told D.A. that the church he attends is not where anyone can boast of his
power, not a church where anyone can say "This is what I want" but
rather "This is what we want", it is not a church where one can be
annoyed.
He further likened the church to the rock, as no one can break the rock with
his foot, no one can have power over the church. The man told the then
Leader David Adeniyi to catch the wind as it was blowing. As it was
impossible to catch the wind, it shall be impossible for anyone to hold the
church. Tha man again said as everyone on top of Idanre hill is taller
tan all houses and trees around the town, so is the church higher than any
other church. He told him that when he Adeniyi retun to Idanre town
can he still be taller than the trees and the houses? The answer was
no, then the old man said so also it is that whoever was in the Celestial
Church of Christ but drops out shall be brought lower in life. When
leader David Adeniyi and his friend were returning to the town the fried
said he was talking with a spirit as they both were covered in a blue
light. It was then the voice said "I AM THE LIGHT, Jesus is the
light John 8:12. Again Jesus spoke to them saying "I am the light
of the world, he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the
light of life."
I beg to say that whoever worships in this Church will always have the light
and free from stumbling.
- Another witness is Rev. Dr. Isaac Ogbeta who lives in New York,
U.S.A. He is a born again Pentecostal church minister of the
Gospel. He confessed to the whole world on television and public
preaching and here in Nigeria that he had organized other Pentecostal church
ministers to fast and pray against the Celestial Church of Christ for its
closure and had caused the mass exodus of the Celestial Church members to
his own church the Renewal Charismatic churches. He confirmed that
those who depart from Celestial Church of Christ spread rumors of occultism
within the church. He thought he was doing justice by praying against
the church until Jesus Christ appeared to him during his night vision.
