Subject: Working For God's Kingdom!
Dear Believer in Christ,
May the peace of the Lord be with you and your entire family.
To God be the Glory that I received Christ. Having known the truth, I had no
choice than to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God for eternal
life and in the sight of man for witness of God's mercy and glory upon my
life.
I have the pleasure to share my testimony with you; I am Barrister.Francis
Adams, the Personal Lawyer of late Mr. Wilson Schluter, a German Businessman
that lived in my Country Nigeria for 22 years before he died in the plane
crash last year. He was a very good Christian, he is so dedicated to God but
he was not married nor had any child till He died, may His soul rest in
peace, Amen. Throughout His stay in my country, he acquired a lot of
properties like lands, house properties, etc.
As his legal adviser, before his death, Mr. Wilson Schluter, instructed me
to write his WILL, because he had no child, he dedicated his wealth to God.
According to the WILL, the properties have to be sold and the money be given
out to a ministry or individual for the work of God. As his legal adviser,
all the documents for the properties were in my care. He gave me the
authority to sell the properties and give out the fund to a Ministry or
individual for the work of God.
In short, I sold all the properties after His death, as instructed by Mr.
Wilson Schluter before he died. And as matter of fact, after I sold all his
properties, I realized up to USD$5,700,000.00 (Five Million Seven Hunred
Thousand US Dollars). The total amount will be invested into God's work as
instructed by the original owner. But Instead of giving the fund out for the
work of God as instructed to me by the owner before his death, I converted
the fund to myself with the intention of investing the fund abroad for my
personal use. I was afraid of putting the fund in the Bank, because I have
to give account to the bank on how I got the money. I then packaged the fund
in two Trunk Boxes and deposited the Trunk Boxes with a security company
here in Nigeria. I did not want the management of the Security Company to
know the content of the Trunk Boxes; therefore I registered the content of
the Trunk Boxes as Family Treasure. Now the security company believes that
what I deposited with them was Family Treasure.
I had a turnaround in my life few weeks ago, when I was watching a program
on television. The name of the program is HOSSANA HOUR on Siverbird
television (STV) and the man of God was preaching concerning Ananias and
Saphira in Acts 5:1-11. After hearing the word of God, I gave my life to
Christ and became a born again Christian. As a born again Christian, I
started reading my bible and one day, the Lord opened my eyes to Ezekiel 33:
18 and 19 where the word of God says: "When the righteous truth from his
righteousness, and committee iniquity, he shall even die thereby. But if the
wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he
shall live thereby". From the scripture, I discovered that the only way I
could have peace in my life is to do what is lawful and right by giving out
the fund as instructed for the work of God by the owner before his death.
I have asked God for forgiveness and I know that God have forgiven me. But I
have to do what is lawful and right in the sight of God by giving out the
fund to the chosen ministry or individual, for the purpose of God's work as
instructed by the owner before his death. After my fasting and prayers, I
asked God to make his choice and direct me to a honest Christian or the
chosen one that deserves this fund by his Grace. I then came across your
address on the Internet as I was browsing through a marvelous site, and as a
matter of fact, it is not only you that I picked on the site initially, but
after my fervent prayer over it, then you were nominated to me through
divine revelation from God, so these are how I received such a divine
revelation from the Lord, and I then decided to contact you for the fund to
be used wisely for things that will glorify the name of God.
I have notified the Security Company where I deposited the Trunk Boxes that
contained the fund that I am moving the Trunk Boxes abroad, and the security
company has since been waiting for my authority for the Trunk Boxes to leave
my country.
So if you know that you will use this fund honestly and wisely for God's
work, then do contact me back immediately through my private email
address:(barr_frankadams2006@yahoo.es), for us to commence this divine
assignment to the glory of God.
Waiting for your response.
Sincerely Yours,
Brother Francis Adams.
