The Eternal Sacred Order Of The Morning Star & St. Michael Star has joined other parishes of Cherubim and Seraphim to propagate the holy order of their founding fathers at the celebration of 100 years and the 68th annual general conference.
Newsconnect reports that among other impactful activities earmarked to celebrate the 94th birthday of the Baba Aladura of The Morning Star and the 100 years celebration the founding fathers established C&S, the organizing committee organised a Seminar and a Documentary to intensify advocacy.
The Establishment of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church, the life and times of late saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase (Ajagunmokadi) the founder of the church was documnted to acquaint members and friends of the church the sacrifices of the founding fathers made in propagating the holy order.
The Nanogenarian cleric of The Morning Star His Most Eminence Respected Spiritual Father J. O ADENAIKE (BENADIN) JP told journalists at the seminar that the celebration is a way of bringing all white gamete people together.
He said his expectation at the weeklong event is to awaken those practicing the white gamete doctrine to do more than they were doing before and make them closer to God.
”What we are doing now will be the beginning of unity. We invited people from other states so they can see what we are doing in the headquarters, the foundation.
“Late Saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase was a saint from the womb, an anointed prophet for that matter. When he was in the womb, he was walking and when he came out of the womb, he continues to walk.
“If I begin to mention what he was doing when he was in the womb, it would be a surprise to many people. The day he was born was the day he was walking, talking”. He said.
The Advisory board member of the church, Director of Finance of the church and Chairman of the organizing committee of the weeklong event His Eminence most revered Apostle General J.O Dawodu said the church is celebrating God’s faithfulness in their lives.
In an interview with journalists, he said;
“We are celebrating the life and time of this founder of this holy order. We started the program with a seraphic praise night, where we have different artist perform into the early hours of this morning.
“Today we are already having our lecture of life and time of the founder, who is the seraphim. We are already having a documentary on that life and time.
“The church has grown from strength to strength, the church has grown from one Parish church to more than 100 parish churches scattered all over the world. UK, USA, Canada, Nigeria, all over. The church has been progressing year in year out, so i think that is enough to celebrate.
”It is a pity we have a proliferation of Cherubim and Seraphim. The founding father had clear cut principles of the holy order.
“For instance, it is not in the doctrine of Cherubim and Seraphim to kill cows, to kill goat, to kill chicken, to kill pigeon and say they are doing prayers.
“Late Saint Moses Orimolade that founded the order only use water and oil and that is the doctrine he laid down for us. It is a pity some harbalist has put on their white gametes churches.
”My advise to those of them who call themselves Cherubim and Seraphim but don’t follow the doctrine of the founding father is for them to have a change of heart, and follow the doctrines of the founding fathers and eschew all these fetish things they do in the name of doing spiritual work for people”. He said.
Senior Apostle General David Aderemi Fatoba, one of the elders in Diaspora based in United Kingdom said the white gamete is one of the leading light of christians. He posited in a separate interview at the event that;
“People don’t believe when they hear Cherubim and seraphim in London preach in English Language. They don’t even know that we conduct our services in English here in Nigeria which is very very important.
“The young ones are running away because they thought everything we are doing is just in our local language. So when some people come to our church and see us conducting our service in English, they usually wondered.
“The English language that we speak makes us to have many branches in London, because people are trooping in. I implore our youths not to run away from these white gamete churches.
”At the end of the day when we are called to eternal kingdom, we will be covered with white gamete. So we should be very proud of it whether in UK, America or Nigeria.
“We have branches in America. I advise everyone to continue to propagate our holy order in UK”. He said.
Secretary to Edo-Delta Anambra Province Women Association Mother in Israel Rita Ugboko said For the 100 years anniversary, women have been upgraded with the reality of the new age.
In an interview with this medium, she said;
“A lot of things have been happening in the holy order. Women are trying to know God, trying to seek on salvation race which I know is better of now than before.
”Unlike before, women just feel they go to church and come back home. Women are now preaching christ and knowing christ more. So with this 100 years, we have been doing well”. She said.
Most Apostle General Innocent C.A.B Alekwe from the Northern part of Nigeria said the Church is thriving in the North though they have some upheavals.
In his words during interview, he said;
“Some indigenes are doing well in the church and in some areas they are not. Generally in the north, there is no where you don’t have white gamete churches.
”Some of the challenges we encounter include when people go contrary to the culture of the people or castigating some religions. Nobody wants his or her religion to be castigated.
“What we need to do is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to them. Convert them and when they have problems they come secretly for prayers and when we pray for them and they receive healings or miracles, they use their mouth to preach the gospel to other people, thereby converting other people into the white gamete church.
“God is eternal, to whom God has given this opportunity to celebrate this occasion should stand firm in the service of Jesus Christ”. He said.
The Chief Protocol of Holy order, Senior Apostle Oluwatosin Badejo said is a glory for them to celebrate this centenary milestone of their founding fathers.
He urged participants of the seminar to do the will of God so that they can gain the kingdom of God.
“Prepare your home in heaven. We are celebrating the life time of our own time so that at the end of the day, we can be retained by the kingdom of God”. He said.
