Wonderful Facts — March 16, 2025

Josephus Oluwatoyin Thomas Preached: March 16, 2025

Introduction

The Lord God, to the Angels: They knew Him as the most Holy. The eternal Creator. The great supreme One. The omnipotent Light.

To Adam and Eve: He was known to them as the God of life. He was the Splendor in Eden, resting in the Tree of life with the light that He brings to us today.

To Abraham: The great friend of God, could shake His hands and talk to Him. The God of great compassion.

The Lord is all of these things, yea, and billions more that we cannot name. All these things combined, He is, to the elect. Oh, yes, because He’s the Bridegroom. He has to give it to the bride.

He’s the Bridegroom, sums it up pretty well. And what He has, and all of those things in the Old Testament that they called Him, is ours. And more so, saith the Lord; under grace and the New Testament, you have more. He is Jesus to us. He is our Creator.

I believe each one of us, if we stood before the Lord, He gave us a few minutes by the power of the Holy Spirit, and He gave us a few minutes. To each of us, we have a word, what we think about Him, and what He means to us. If He called upon you, what do you think about me?

Jesus is the word of God: He is the law of the Lord, He is perfect, He is the one who converted your soul, thereby giving you eternal salvation. Psalm 19: 7.

Jesus is your life: Your breath, the life that you now have, is eternal because the Lord Jesus is your life. Colossians 3: 4; John 3: 15.

THE ELECT SPIRITS WHICH WERE PART OF GOD, BEFORE THE ELECT BODY WAS CREATED – The real eternal spirit which God gives His saints had no beginning and has no end and is like unto God! that is why it is called eternal life, it always was and always will be with God! And when we repent (salvation) we keep this spirit in order to always live with Him!!

He’s also, in Isaiah, he knew Him as The mighty God. And Isaiah said unto us a child, Isaiah 9: 6, shall be born. He is The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace, the wonderful Counsellor.

To Isaiah? The Savior was The mighty God. And he put it that way. And then the Lord said, I know of no other God. I know of no other Savior after he wrote it there. Isaiah 45: 21 – 22

Jesus is our eternal home: The holy city, the new Jerusalem, our eternal home, is coming from the Lord Jesus, where there is no need for a temple, for He is the temple thereof. Revelation 21: 2 – 3; Revelation 21: 22 – 23; Revelation 22: 3 – 5.

Jesus is the Bridegroom to the elect: And now we said all of those things, in the Old Testament, coming up a little bit in the New Testament once in a while, but all these things combined, He is, to the elect. Oh my, you mean, all of that combined, is, now, the elect. Oh, yes, because He’s the Bridegroom. He has to give it to the bride.

In the world to come, the righteous are equal to angels! (Luke 20: 36) – In some respects and ways the redeemed will excel angels; for the overcomers will be the ‘very bride’ of Christ! – A privilege which is not given to angels! There is no higher position for created beings than those in the Bride of Christ!” (Rev. 19: 7-9)

We shall be the highest group in heaven of all of God’s creation. We shall sit with our Lord Jesus on His throne, ruling the entire Universe with Him, for eternity. Revelation 3: 21.

He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1: 4).

“But as it is written, EYE HATH NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, NEITHER HAVE ENTERED INTO THE HEART OF MAN, THE THINGS WHICH GOD HATH PREPARED FOR THEM THAT LOVE HIM.”1 Corinthians 2: 9

“I WILL bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.”Psalm 34: 1

You will be blessed.

Summary of the Sermon

We listened to a sermon titled “Wonderful Facts”, CD # 1188, preached by Brother Neal Frisby.

In the sermon, Brother Frisby said:

Wonderful facts, a perspective scope. This will be uplifting. A perspective scope of the Lord. It’ll be uplifting, in a joy to your heart.

The Lord God, to the Angels: They knew Him as the most Holy. The eternal Creator. The great supreme One. The omnipotent Light. The only omnipotent Light of heaven and earth. The Supreme. That’s the Angels that know Him, and the great One.

To Adam and Eve: He was known to them as the God of life. And the God of mercy, at the same time, coming to them. He was the Splendor in Eden, not Satan. He was the Splendor in Eden, resting in the Tree of life with the light that He brings to us today. There He was, to Adam and Eve. The God of life. And the God of mercy to the first two created at that time.

To Abraham: The great friend of God, could shake His hands and talk to Him. A great friend. He was the supernatural Supplier. The supernatural Multiplier and Supplier. He was really great, Supplier and Multiplier. More can be said of Abraham that counted upon Him. The God of great compassion. The One that would lead him in the proper way. No matter what, He would lead him right.

To Jacob and Isaac: The protector, the promised seed to them, as they saw Him, as the One that they loved.

To Joseph and to Daniel: Because their ministries, similarity in some things here. He was the Preserver of life. How much that He kept life. He was known to both of them as the God of secrets, as He revealed Himself to them.

Daniel: You talk about reward. You talk about something that money cannot buy. No one can give you, nowhere else that you can find it, is what Daniel received. And he’d been praying, and diligently, seeking the Lord. And it said about the oblation. Which is about three o’clock. Because the oblation was in Israel. It was reminding him, that’s why, why he used the word, only God knows. He said Gabriel was made to fly swiftly to me. And he said, O Daniel, greatly beloved. Evidently, he needed that. He’d been persecuted. He was in a place of the pagans. But yet, God sent that angel, and said, tell Daniel thou art greatly beloved in heaven.

I knew that Ezekiel had ministered at the time of Daniel. Two prophets coming together, although one went longer. The other one went on out of the way.

Greatly beloved; Daniel what a reward, none any greater than somebody come from heaven and tell you how much you’d loved there. For standing against paganism. For standing against the gods and taking the one God that’s in the heavens. That’s what he got it for. There he was praying through. He was a man that could get through for God. And that’s why he was loved. Daniel’s prayers alone in that kingdom shook Satan in no uncertain way. Ezekiel the prophet was there for a while at that side. And we find out, to both of them, He is the God, a God of secrets, the great Revelator. The God of the future, and the God of eternity was with them.

Enoch and Elijah: The God of reward for diligently seeking Him. How that by faith Enoch was translated. By faith, Elijah was translated. They were rewarded for their work. They saw the God, of symbolizing them, as the future translation of the church where God said I’m coming, and I have my reward with me. And both of those men were taken without death at that time. And God rewarded them for the great works. He’d done something special because of their hearts to believe Him, and for their hearts to continually stand against all odds. And stand up against the whole nation of Israel.

But He also knew they’d be like that. He created them like that. So that He would symbolize to us that He’s going to do the same very things.

To Moses: He was the God of miracles, the Deliverer. God of miracles. The things that God gave him, the master things, of all things that he could control by the power of faith, even to the realm of creating certain things there.

Joshua: To him, He was known as the God of great exploits. The God of His word. The Commander in Chief, the Captain of the host of Israel, is what He told him. He was known to Joshua as the great Savior that took them all in with Him.

The end of age, be known the same way, our great Savior. He’s going to take us on in. It’s really great, the Commander.

The Hebrew children: To them, He was the God of divine intervention. He would come and not delay. They put them in the fire, but by divine intervention, He walked with them, and they could not hurt them where He was at.

To Daniel in the lions’ den: He was the divine Intervention also, when He divinely intervened for him.

To Isaiah and Jeremiah: The Revealer of truth, and judgment upon all nations that forsake God.

To Isaiah? The Savior was The mighty God. And he put it that way. And then the Lord said, I know of no other God. I know of no other Savior after he wrote it there.

Isaiah and Jeremiah: Knowing Him as the great Revealer of truth, and the judgment set.

To David: He was the great Prince. He was the great warrior of Israel, that warrior Angel that was with him to fight. He was the God of battles. You go up to the battle, I’ll stir that tree, and you can take them off. Find a giant, have battle, we’ll get him. You put the stone there, I’ll get it to his head. The great Warrior to him. The Prince of battles, the Protector, the Defender, saith the Lord of Israel.

The Protector of the seed. The splendor in Eden. The life giver. The God of mercy. The God that revealeth secrets. He’s the great God. The great Prince, the Defender of Israel.

Joel and the minor prophets: To them, the great Restorer, the Talker of revival, the latter and the former rain. To them, the Satisfier, and ye shall be satisfied. And many more things He was to them. He was a God of revival. The promised reign would come.

Malachi: He was the Sun of righteous, rising in power to heal. He was rising to power to heal all diseases that would come before Him.

Joel and the minor prophets: If you went through there, my, what they thought of Him. The Lily of the Valley. Bright morning star.

John called Him what He was, the Word, and Beloved, and all of that.

To Solomon: He was the God of prosperity, the God of peace during his reign. The Lily of the Valley. How beautifully, wrote his songs to blend in, to show us the living God.

The same He was, the same thing in prosperity, and that to Joseph, and to all of the prophets, and many of them down through there. But to Solomon, it was pronounced in a great way, to show us, by our faith, peace, rest, and prosperity, those that believe God.

Now listen to this. I’ve got just those few in there. This might sound a little hard in this preaching here, but I want to leave the imprint in your heart, want to tie right down to the foundation for it can’t be shook loose.

The Lord is all of these things, yea, and billions more that we cannot name.

And the way that you get things from God is to exalt and to believe what I’m saying. And to praise, and thanksgiving. And to make Him what He is.

You cannot say it, Lord, make me more than I am. But you don’t have that facilities. How many of you believe that? You don’t have the mind. But with what He has given us, by faith, He knows the distance that we can go, He knows that. But the human cannot make him more than he is. They just don’t have it in him to do it. But I can tell you one thing, by saying it’s more than we can ever believe or think about, what God really is.

Someday, according to Holy Spirit in my heart, right now tells me, you shall be vindicated. Every word that I’ve ever spoke, about who He is, and what He is, and how great He is, will be vindicated. I will be vindicated. That’s right.

This world, they don’t like to understand how great and powerful He is. They don’t want to know about His omnipotent, His great authority. They want to be ruled, saith the Lord, by man, by system, and organization. That is closer to the flesh. That is religion. That is a religious skin. But a real salvation, spiritual heart, is another matter, saith the Lord.

Who will you have to rule over you, Satan? Or who will you have to rule over you, the living God of the promise, the God of the word.

Time is just like a second or two, it’s going to be over with. And what they think they’re going to get out there, worshiping the wrong gods, I do not know. But this I do know, all that He gave me, Jesus said, shall surely come, won’t miss a one of them. And they will listen to the Bible, and the truth that are revealed to them. They’re the ones with the spiritual ears, the spiritual eyes, the spiritual senses, and they go by faith. And they walk not by sight, but they walk by faith. That’s exactly right, Paul said. That’s the way your faith works.

Now we said all of those things, and much more, what He was to each Prophet. He was something different, yet meaning almost the same thing, but something great, something wonderful, when He would come to them.

His name was wonderful to Jacob, he wanted to know. And the One that protected and guided Jacob, and so forth.

And each one of them knew Him as something. And sometimes, in the Bible, in the Hebrew, they would give a name like, whatever it was, Adoni, or different scriptures, Elyon, etc., like that. And it would mean a certain thing to each one of those prophets, that word would, that He would come to them. And it meant certain things all through there, and there’s thousands of them as you come up through there. How each one of them, to them He was that. And what He did for them. And to some of the ladies, or women, in the Bible, that had appearance, or the Angel would appear, in the Old Testament, and Mary in the New Testament, something to them, that He would come to them.

And now we said all of those things, in the Old Testament, coming up a little bit in the New Testament once in a while, but all these things combined, He is, to the elect. Oh my, you mean, all of that combined, is, now, the elect. Oh, yes, because He’s the Bridegroom. He has to give it to the bride.

To the elect: He’s the Preserver of life. He’s a Protector. We can’t get them all in here. He’s a Giver of life. He’s a Protector of life. He is a God of secrets. He is a Rewarder to them. He is a Revelator to them. He is the Healer to them. He is the All in all. He’s Jesus, the God of all. The Diviner. The Prophet. The God Prophet. The Author.

He comes in a pillar fire and the bright morning star in there. How great He is, how wonderful anointing and power to deliver.

He’s the great Gift of love to His people and to the world.

And we just mentioned a few here under grace and what power.

Now it sums it up like this: He is our celestial Hero. He is the Angel of the Lord.

He is Jesus to us. He’s all of these things. How He is the beauty of heaven. He is the beauty of God. He is our Creator.

He’ll back up His word if the people will only back up what they believe in, with their heart. He will back it up.

Sometimes, you have to have patience. Sometimes you’re tested. But always, we see miracles. We see God moving in many powerful ways. How great a God we have today.

If He called upon you, what do you think about me? Your Savior? The Prince of Peace? The mighty God? What do you think? See, you have to have something. Our celestial Hero. The Angel of the Lord.

How great and how powerful.

Wonderful facts. Wonderful facts of the Lord to His people.

Oh, what a time to be in thanksgiving. What a time to praise Him for His great revelation that He has given His people.

I read from Scroll # 43:

THE ELECT SPIRITS WHICH WERE PART OF GOD, BEFORE THE ELECT BODY WAS CREATED – The real you (the spiritual part) was with God before it was appointed a body upon the earth through seed. There is a fleshly seed and a spiritual seed which was united! The real eternal spirit which God gives His saints had no beginning and has no end and is like unto God! That is why after death our body is changed into the inner immortal spirit, that is why it is called eternal life, it always was and always will be with God! And He breathed it into each of us (Gen. 2: 7) “Behold saith the Lord do ye not know this Scripture? Ye were with Me when the Morning Stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy!” (Job 38:6,7) Our flesh body came upon earth by birth uniting with His spirit which was always with Him! And when we repent (salvation) we keep this spirit in order to always live with Him!! Read (Isa. 1:9 – Eph. 1:4) (Satan’s seed is a group, also the Lord has created a place for them.)

Jesus is our eternal home: The holy city, the new Jerusalem, our eternal home, is coming from the Lord Jesus, where there is no need for a temple, for He is the temple thereof.

“And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

“And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.”Revelation 21: 22 – 23

“And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.”Revelation 22: 3-5

I read from Scroll # 154:

ANGELS AND THE ELECT – “Men have often wondered when their bodies are glorified and changed how will they rank with the angels? – In the world to come, the righteous are equal to angels!
