This is a monthly Christian
Newsletter and hereby state the object of its publication: That we are living in
the last days — the end of the
Gospel age; as well as the dawning of the long prayed for Kingdom of Christ in
power; are facts not only discernible by the close Student of the word, led by
the Spirit; but the outward signs recognizable by the world, bear the same
testimony: And we are desirous that the “household of Faith” be fully awake. Not
only help awaken but to assist them to “put on the whole Armor of God that they
may be able to stand in this evil day”. And beside all this, that giving all
diligence, they add to their Faith, Virtue, and to virtue, Knowledge,
Self-control, Patience, Godliness, brotherly Kindness, and Love; whom trust in
the merit of Christ’s Sacrifice for the world. Luke 21:36; Matt. 6:10; Eph.6:13;
2 Peter 1:4-11

WHICH
ONE IS THE TRUE CHURCH?
“The Church of the First-borns, whose
names are written in Heaven.”
— Heb. 12:23.
This subject should be approached prayerfully and honestly, that all who see
that there was but one Church in the beginning, established by our Lord, may
also see that there will be but the one Church in the end, the Church Triumphant
in glory, “the Bride, the Lamb’s Wife.” For the same reason that there have been
doctrines many amongst the followers of Jesus, there have been churches many, as
representing those doctrines. We have found the true Gospel more or less
scattered in all the various creeds, and in none of them the pure and
unadulterated Gospel; so we should be prepared to find that the one true
Church of Christ for the past eighteen centuries has been scattered here and
there amongst various denominations, and that not one of these denominations is
the true Church. Not one of them can claim to contain all the “wheat” and none
of the “tares.” Not one of them can claim to contain all of the saints and no
hypocrites.
“THAT THEY ALL MAY BE ONE”
I shall not charge intentional wrong-doing on the part of any of the divisions
of the Christian Church. On the contrary, I shall assume that the framers of the
various creeds were sincere, honest men; and that the original followers of
those creeds were sincere, and that a few today may be equally sincere. I shall
assume, however, that the majority of Christians, ministers and laymen, realize
that the sectarian fences are largely composed of misconceptions of the Divine
Word and Plan, and that the causes which originally led to Church divisions have
considerably disappeared. If we can now recognize one true Gospel, we may all
reunite in harmony with our Master’s prayer, that “All may be one, as Thou,
Father, and I are one.” — John 17:21.
I remind you again of the simplicity of this Gospel which recognizes the broad
outlines of the Divine Plan and allows each individual to see as many of the
finer lines of the same as his spiritual development will permit. On that broad
basis of Christian union the early Christians were one and reprobated any
division. St. Paul rebuked those who said, “I am of Paul; I am of Apollos; I am
of Peter.” (1 Cor. 1:12) As only Christ died for us all, He alone must be
recognized as our Savior. As He is the Head of the Church and the only Head, He
only must be recognized. As all you are brethren, so the class distinction as
between clergy and laity must be abrogated that we all may be one Church with
one Lord, one Faith and one Baptism and one God and Father over all. — Ephesians
4:5.
“BABYLON THE GREAT — MOTHER OF HARLOTS”
How the divided Church, with clashing creeds, appears to the Almighty, He tells
us, calling it Babylon — which signifies confusion. And who can deny the
appropriateness of the name? In times past Catholics have applied this name to
the Protestant sects, and the Protestants in turn have applied it to the Church
of Rome. But when we come to examine the Scriptures on the subject they seem to
include all — the Church of Rome being represented as the Mother Church and the
various Protestant Churches as her daughters. The charge of harlotry which the
Lord makes against mother and daughters must be acknowledged, although with some
this harlotry is more pronounced than with others. Using the Jewish marriage
ceremony as the basis of the figure, all Christians, as members of the true
Church, are declared to be “espoused to one husband, which is Christ.” (2 Cor.
11:2)
Under the Jewish custom the espousal brought the woman under the same obligation
of chastity as though the marriage had taken place. Thus the Church, by her vow
to her Lord, is obligated to the full, although the marriage with the Heavenly
Bridegroom will not take place until His Second Advent and the change of the
espoused from earthly to Heavenly conditions; for “flesh and blood” cannot
inherit the Kingdom of God.” — Rev. 19:7; John 14:3; 1 Cor. 15:50.
Spiritual harlotry is the condition in which the espoused of the Lord becomes
affiliated with and joined to the world. Thus the Church of Rome became
affiliated with or united to the civil government of Rome; and when the Roman
Empire went to pieces, the Papal Church entered into covenant relationship with
various divisions of the civil government; and some of these paramours she still
has, while others have left her. France is gone, Portugal also, and Italy. Spain
is moody. Now, the Church of Rome has a Vatican State and Ambassadors in various
civil states. She is well treated in America, but not joined to the American
Government. She is well entertained and given every liberty in Germany, Italy
and by many in Europe and Africa, but these countries are not her paramours.
“LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTERS”
The Greek Church is joined to the Russian Government; the Church of England to
the British Government. The Lutheran Church is married to several European
governments. Others of our Protestant Churches, having no opportunity for
affiliation with earthly governments, have become united to worldly systems,
worldly organizations of their own, in which, as a rule, Wealth or Mammon, sits
at the head of the table. “Like mother, like daughters” is an old saying.
Instead of charging this whole matter upon others, let us each recognize and
take to heart our own share, for which we are responsible. As the doctrinal
errors which caused our divisions gradually developed during a long period of
darkness, so our development along the lines of spiritual harlotry were gradual.
It is not for us to quarrel with the facts, which are undeniable, but to
sincerely repent of the wrong condition and renounce it.
Coming back to the one faith, we should come back also to the one
Lord. In so doing He will graciously receive us and henceforth His name
alone will be quite sufficient. We shall no longer need to style ourselves Roman
Christians, Anglican Christians, Lutheran Christians, Calvinistic Christians,
Full Gospel Christians, Seventh Day, etc. — but all such names will be abhorred
as reminders of the unfaithfulness which we now deplore. As the name Christian
was sufficient for the early Church it is sufficient today for all heartily glad
to abandon errors of the past and to come together as the one “Church of
the Living God.”
As for the one baptism, let us concede what the Scriptures claim and
declare, namely, that water immersion is merely a symbol or picture of the
burial of the individual’s will and interests in death — like unto and in
fellowship with our Lord’s self-renouncement, even unto death. Thus all of the
consecrated, of whatever denomination, can be recognized as members of the
one true Church if they are dead with Christ to the world, its hopes and
aims — buried with Him by baptism into His death, which death to the flesh
(accepted by the Father) constitutes us members of the one Body of Christ, the
true Church. If thus baptized into His death, we shall share also in His
resurrection. — Rom. 6:4,5.
THE CHURCH IN THE WILDERNESS
Is it asked, Where has the true Church been during all the eighteen centuries
since the Apostles died? We answer that the Scriptures picture her as going into
the wilderness condition, out of public view, for twelve hundred and sixty years
of this time. As pride, pomp, arrogance and error came into prominence,
meekness, gentleness, love, and simplicity, gradually retired. Through the long
period of the Dark Ages no history of the true Church was written, just
as no such history or record of her can be written today. — Rev. 12:6,14. Since
none of the various denominations is the true Church, therefore, the history of
none of these gives her history.
As her members are Scripturally declared to contain not many wise, not many
learned, therefore scattered amongst all the various creeds and churches, and
some outside of them all, the espoused, chaste “virgin” of the Lord is not a
prominent feature in church affairs and is wholly unknown to the world. Indeed,
these, while in the world, are not of it and usually are disesteemed. As the
Master said, “If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me before it hated
you. If ye were of the world, the world would love its own.” — John 15:18,19.
If, then, the spirit-begotten ones, constituting the Lord’s betrothed virgin
Church, are few, and if that few be scattered amongst the four hundred millions
nominally styled Christendom, it follows that they are greatly in the minority
and could have comparatively little influence today even if they were ever so
determined and energetic. The masses and classes rule. Wealth, learning, earthly
interests and earthly power are better pleased with present conditions than with
those which God’s Word promises will be established when Messiah shall take to
Himself His great power and begin His Reign.
Babylon, as the Scriptures declare, is great, influential, powerful — mother and
daughters. She will never consent to a recognition of the saintly few in her
midst, whom she considers foolish in claiming to be “the Elect” and true Church.
To apply the Apostle’s words, She esteems the saintly class “fools all the day
long,” “the filth and off-scouring” of the earth. To her they are the
impracticables. To her they are insurrectionists always crying out for the
simplicities of the Gospel, the rights and liberties of the individual in person
and conscience, for holiness unto the Lord, not merely in name, but in deed and
in truth. For this true Church class, so small a minority in Babylon, to wait
for the conversion of the worldly masses of the various systems to see “eye to
eye” with them in this matter and to reform all these various systems would be
to confess folly and to be led of unreason.
“COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE”
In such a matter we need the wisdom which comes from above and the faith and
courage to follow it. The Lord’s prayer must be our guide respecting His will
concerning us — we who have by faith and consecration and begetting of the Holy
Spirit been adopted into the One True Church “whose names are written in
Heaven.” He prayed for us and not for the nominal mass, who are really parts
of the world and thoroughly deceiving themselves in supposing that they have
either part or lot or inheritance
with the Church. Thank God that we now see that this does not mean that all
except the saintly will be eternally tormented, but merely that none except the
saintly, “copies of God’s dear Son,” can be members of the glorious “little
flock,” which God predestined to gather from every nation, people, kindred and
tongue. Of this faithful Church the Lord declares, “My sheep know My Voice and
they follow Me.” We hear His Voice assuring us that it is His will that we who
belong to His chaste, espoused virgin class should all be one — should no
longer be separated into sects and parties by creedal fences.
The Lord declares that He gave Babylon time for repentance and she repented not.
He declares that His sentence against the Babylonian system has already gone
forth — that, from the Divine standpoint, already “Babylon is fallen! is
fallen!” from Divine favor. What would be the wish of our Beloved, to whom we
are betrothed? What is His message to us? It is written, “Come out of her, My
people, that you be not partakers of her sins and that you receive not of her
plagues” — her troubles — Rev. 18:4; John 10:27.
Since the nominal systems are not in that consecrated condition of heart,
hungering and thirsting for the Truth and for righteousness, and dead to
self-will, therefore, it is hopeless to think of their surrender of their
interests, theories, etc. The very most they could think of doing would be to
federate — to agree not to war with each other. Far better would it be to
have some theological battles and air their inconsistencies before the wiser
public of today. But whatever Babylon may do, mother and daughters, the course
of the saintly few, the real Church, which is shortly to come from the
“wilderness” leaning upon the arm of her Beloved Bridegroom, is clearly set
forth. The saintly should unite in heart on the principles and doctrines
of God’s Word and should stand free in the liberty wherewith Christ has made
them free from all human bondage and sectarianism.
Why should the Lord permit the formation of these great wards and divisions in
Mystic Babylon? He has permitted only such things as He is able to make work out
blessings for His Very Elect, His “little flock,” who soon shall be joint-heirs
with Christ in His Kingdom. Babylon’s strong sectarian walls, styled
“orthodoxy,” and the great brazen gates of worldliness will afford the saintly
few the very test they need to demonstrate themselves “overcomers” — “more than
conquerors”; for such overcomers only will constitute the members of the Bride
class. All the promises are made to the “overcomers,” and subtle evils must
therefore be permitted for their testing, that those approved of God may be
manifested.
UNION OF THE ONE TRUE CHURCH!
In a word, our Lord’s prayer will be realized by the “overcomers.” They will be
one with Himself and with the Father; there will be “one Lord, one
Faith, one Baptism, one God, the Father.” But as for the nominal systems,
their future will be destruction as systems, though many of God’s dear people in
them, failing to overcome, will be “saved so as by fire” in a great Time of
Trouble with which this Age will terminate and the New Age will be ushered in. —
1 Cor. 3:15; Eph. 4:4-6.
You have my plea, Christian brethren, for the fulfillment of the Master’s prayer
in the union of “the Church which is the Body of Christ,” “the Church of
the First-borns whose names are written in heaven.” This union will not
necessitate any reorganization as a new sect or new Church. It is the true
Church, the only one which God has ever recognized. Babylon, without it, would
not be in any sense of the word recognized of God; and as soon as the
“overcomers” shall have escaped from Babylon, Babylon will come in remembrance
before God that He may give to her the cup of the wine of His wrath, and
suddenly, in one hour, her fall will occur. (Rev. 18:19,18,10.) To the true
Church the Lord all along intimated that their oneness is as members of Christ,
and not in earthly organizations. We do not read, Gather together unto Calvin,
Luther, Wesley, Paul, Apollos or Peter, but, “Gather together My saints unto Me,
saith the Lord, those who have made a Covenant with Me by sacrifice.”
“They shall be Mine, saith the Lord, in that day when I come to make up My
jewels.” — Mal. 3:17.
When all of the sanctified shall have been delivered, the clock of the Universe
will strike the hour which closes the present Dispensation and opens the New;
and “the salt of the earth” having been removed from Babylon, corruption will
swiftly ensue. Flee out of Babylon! Deliver every man his soul! Let us use the
light of “Present Truth” to the extent that each enjoys it. It will guide us in
respect to all the affairs of life — into closer fellowship with God and the
Savior and the brethren; and into separateness of mind and heart and service
from Babylon. Let Babylon proceed with the good works in which she takes pride.
The work of the saints, the Lord declares, is to “build one another up in the
most holy faith,” that eventually it may be said, “The marriage of the Lamb has
come; for His Wife hath made herself ready.” Amen.

EKKANISA ENTUFU Y’ERIWA ?
“Era Ekkanisa Ey’ababereberye
Abaawandiikibwa Mu Ggulu”
Kale kyetagisa obukakamu okuyiga ku mutwe guno n’okulaba nti Ekkanisa eri emu
Mukama waffe Kuristo gye yatandiikawo, ewataali biwayi olubereberye ERA
n’enkomerero, egya kuba emu, Omugole wa Kuristo mu Ggulu. Nga bwe waliwo
engyigiriza ezengyawulo, bwe kityo n’enzikkiriza oba amakkanisa mangi olwe
ngyawuukana olw’enzikkiriza. Kale tewali nzikkiriza atalimu ab’obukuusa oba
aberimbika mu kukkiriza.
Obumu bw’ekkanisa bwogerwako nga ekintu ekkikulu, era gwe mussingi ekkanisa kwe
yatandikirwa. Tulaba nga abatandika engyawukana balina ebigendererwa ebirungi
naye kati amadiini ago gabivako dda, nga abakkiriza tebakyalina ngyawulo ezo.
Omutume Paulo yategeeza nti okwekutulamu ebiwaayi te kyetagisa — Yesu ye yafa ku
lwaffe era ye mukulu w’Ekkanisa (Omutwe), kale fena twe gatira ku ye.
EKIBUGA BABULONI EKINENE- MAAMA W’ABENZI.
Tulaba enjawukana mu biwayi by’abakulisitayo ekiva ku nzikkiriza ezenjawulo;
kino kiyinza kitya okusanyusa Katonda alaba bino, nag olubeleberye si
yetekateekaye ! Kino Mukama kya’yita Babuloni — ekitegeeza akavuyo kenzikkiriza
! Abakatoliki bayita Abapolestant bonna Babuloni, n’Abakulistayo nebayita
Ekkelizia enkatolika Babuloni. NAYE bwe twetegeereza abyawandiikibwa, biraga
lwatu nti bisonga ku bonna wamu — Abenzikkiriza ya Papa nga Maama,
n’Abapolestanti bonna nga Bawalabe abenzi. Bwe tutwala eky’okuyiga ku BUFUMBO
bw’Abayudaya; Abakkiriza bonna abamazima batwalibwa nga Omugole ategekedwa bba
ye Kuristo — (2 Abokk.11:2).
Kale Abayudaya batwala Omugole ayanjudwa nga Omufumbo era talina kumagamaga,
kino ne kiraga lwatu nti Ekkanisa olw’ekilayiro kyabuli mukkiriza, aategekerwa
obufumbo ne bba we era Kuristo, kumbaga ey’okubaawo mu madda ge — Embaga y”omwan
gw’Endiga. Era olw’embaga eno, kye tagisa Ekkanisa okukyusibwa (buli mukkiriza
ow’amazima) okuva mu mbeera y’omubiri okudda mu mbeera y’omwoyo, kuba Omusayi
n’omubiri tebiyinza kusikira bwakabaka bwa Katonda — Okubik.19:7, Yokkana 14:3,
1 Abakk.15:50. Obwenzi obwogerwa mu kubikkulirwa bwe bw’Ekkanisa okwegadanga
n’ensi (Abakkiriza okutwala omwoyo gw’ensi). Kino tukiraba lwatu nti Papa
n’Abakkiriza be begata n’obufuzi bwa baruumi, era oluvanyuma n’manga ga bulaaya,
abafuzi b’ensi eno.
Kati tulaba lwatu nti Vatican nsi ekulemberwa Papa nga alina n’Ababaka mu
mawanga amalala nga Uganda! Abakulistayo ba Anglican bali mu bufuzi bwa
Bungereza era bakulemberwa Quini ! N’ebiwayi bingi ebyabakulistayo bikolagana
n’ebanabyabufuzi bw’ensi eno oba gavumenti nz’ensi, nga batabagana! Kale wano
balese Bba wabwe, ne betaba n’omwoyo gw’ensi nga bakola nga ensi eno bwe yagala.
Kino kyagya mpola mpola, okutukka n’ezikkiriza enkyamu bwe zeyongeera, olwo
okulindirira Kuristo nekukyusibwa nga kati bakolerera bugagga, bittibwa, maanya
n’ebyafaayo — kuno kwe kuva ku kigendererwa ky’obufumbo bw’Omwana gw’Endiga oba
okutta eky’ama ! Amaanya ge biwayi by’abakulistayo byongeera okulaga embeera eno
ebbi, nga era nga bweyaleka ekkanisa mu ntandikwa bwekityo bwe kinabeera ku
nkomerero — Abalondebe nga bagatibwa naye, awo abantu bewuunye bye balabanga
ng’amakkanisa agamanyi!
MUKIFULUME ABANTU BANGE
Mu kubikkulirwa 18:4, Mukama ategeeza lwatu nti “Mukifulumemu mmwe abantu bange,
muleme okusa ekimu nakyo — Babuloni”. Embera nga mbi/ ntabangufu so nga ne
Babuloni tekikyalongosebwa. Kale bonna abakola endagaano ne Katonda, abewaayo
okufa ne Yesu, okubonabonera mu ye nga bakola Katonda byayagala, abo baweebwa
amagezi okuva mu madiini gano, agali mu magezi g’ensi. Engyigiriza enkyaamu mu
go — gamba nti Omuntu bwafa omulungi agenda mu Ggulu oba Pagatoli oba Olusuku
lwa Katonda ate omwonoonyi mu Geyeena, neberabira nti Katonda yagamba mu ttaka
(Olub.3:19), era nti wajja kubeerawo okuzukkira kw’abantu bonna wano ku nsi (Isaaya
26:19, Yokkana 5:29-30); n’ebirala bingi, biraga okuva ku kukkiriza Yesu kwe
yaleka. Oba abatuukuvu bagenda mu ggulu, walibayo okuzukkira mu ggulu?? oba
balidda mu ttaka ne bazukkirira wano ku nsi nga Yesu bwe yazukkirira wano? Kale
abakkiriza bonna bwe bafuna Amazima balina okusalawo — okugoberera amazima oba
okusigala mu makkanisa ago. Kino Mukama kyava akitegeeza, nti mu kifulumememu,
muve mu Babuloni. Abo be muyita bakitaffe mu Katonda ba batwaala mu kkuzikirira
kuba abakulembeze bwe batyo Katonda si ye yabasaawo (Matayo 23:9) !
OKWEGATA KW’EKKANISA YA KATONDA
Kino kya kutuukirira Mukama waffe kye yasaba nti mu bere bumu, gaze ne Kitange
bwe tuli obumu (Yokkana 17:23-24). Era nga Abatume bwe bategeeza nti “Omubiri
gumu, Okubatiza kumu, Mukama waffe omu, ne Katonda omu” nti enkomerero, ekkanisa
ya kweyawula, olwo abavudde mu babuloni ne begatta ne bba wabwe. Babuloni nga
enzikkiriza enyingi eziri ku magenzi g’ensi eno embi, za kugwaawo mu lutalo
dekkabusa, olw’enkomerero y’ensi eno. Era wano Ekkanisa entufu etongezebwe,
etandikke omulimu gwaayo mu ensi empya. (2 Petero 3:13).
Mukama tagamba nti mukunganire mu bibinja bya Bakatolika, Bapolositanti,
Penticosto, Basevensiday, Baguliki nebirala wabula nti “Mukunganyize abatukuvu
bange gy’endi, bonna abakola nange Endagaano ya Ssadaka” — Zabbuli 50:1. Kino
kilaga lwatu nti amanya ga makkanisa si ge makunganiro wabula Mukama ye. “Era
baliba bange, bw’ayogera Mukama w’eggye,...” — Malaki 3:17.
Kale nga Omugole omukkazi amaze okwetegeka, era nga yegase ne bba; olwo ensi eno
embi nezingibwako mu katyabaga akanene, akekomerero y’ensi; olwo ensi empya
netandika nga ensi ey’okubiri bwe yatandika ku mulembe gwa Noah. Abantu be
abalungi mulowooze ku kino, mu wulire amazima era musalewo, kuba abatave mu
nzikkiriza ezo, bakuvamu na maanyi, era olw’omuliro omusufu nga banunulwa.
Omulimu omukulu kati eri abatukuvu be/ Abakkiriza kwe kwezimba bokka na bokka mu

DESIRING GOD’S GREAT BLESSING!
Desiring to obtain God’s blessing but indifferent in doing His will results in
failure. Serving and improving the life conditions of your fellow men towards
God, is one source of God’s blessing. Therefore, desiring to spread God’s
Message of life but thinking you are too busy with work of whatever sort, poor
to give financial support as you may not have enough for food, or you are not
talented to speak, or feeling bodily imperfection that a person may ask you what
you can not explain; yes in whatever form of constraint: We advise you to
consider the many and varied opportunities the LORD of heaven has placed before
you to serve your fellow men and women; Example, obtain copies of this monthly
Newsletter — look at People interested in God’s word around you; at work place,
home, neighbors, at your church, sending a copy to mother, father, friends &
relatives in different places of the Country. Those who could promote this work
in other right way, the opportunity stands. Yes, how refreshing and motivating
you may contribute to changing Peoples lives, and yourself be God’s righteous
Servant in the belief of Christ and the TRUTH.
GROWING IN FAITH
Growth in faith is
a desired state of Christian for desired fruitage of Christ likeness; But this
must be in line with the will of God as expressed in 1 Thess. 5:21 KJV — “Prove
all things; hold fast that which is good.” In line with this exhortation we
advise all who are earnest students of Scriptures and our Newsletter, to prove
all our studies with the only standard given by God (Isaiah 34:16) and please
communicate to us! It is also, our privilege to share the message of God’s love
with others; hence we advise those who received the first publications to share
them with God’s People.
