Subject: Dear Beloved in Christ,
Dear Beloved in Christ,
Comliment of the season.It is by the grace of God that I receive
Christ,knowing the truth and the truth have set me free. 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, having seen your
contact from the Internet. I am Barrister Key Maxwell, the legal
adviser to late Mr. and Mrs. David Williams, a British couple that
lived in my Country Nigeria for 25 years before they both died in the
plane crash late last year.These couples were good Christians, they
so dedicated to God but they had no child till they died. Throughout
their stay in my country, they acquired a lot of properties like
lands, house properties, etc. As their legal adviser,before their
death, the husband Mr. David Williams instructed me to write his
WILL.Because they had no child, they dedicated their wealth to
God.According to the WILL, the properties have to be sold and the
money be given out to a ministry for the work of God. As their 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 the
Ministries for the work
of God.
In short, I sold all the properties after their death, as instructed by
Mr. David Williams before his death. And as matter of fact, after I
sold all their properties, I realized more than $10,000,000.00 , and
what supposed to be the percentage interest of my right legal fee
was firstly deducted by me out of the total amount realized from the
sold properties, this was base on the initial agreement between me
and the owner of the properties before his death. Therefore the total
amount left to be invested into God's work as instructed by the
owner, is $10,000,000.00 only. But Instead of giving the main 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 consignments
and deposited
the consignments with a security company. I did not want the ma
nagement of the Security Company to know the content of the
consignments, therefore I registered the content of the consignments
as Gold Bars. Now, the security company believes that what I
deposited with them was Gold Bars.
I had encounter with Christ when Pastor Benny Hinn was preaching on
television 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 for the purpose of God's wok 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 ministry that deserves this fund by his
Grace. I then came across your address on the Internet as I was
browsing through a Christian site, and as a matter of fact, it is
not only you or your ministry that I picked on the Christian 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, how I got your
contact information, 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 consignments
that contained the fund, that I am moving the consignment abroad and
the security company has since been waiting for my authority for the
consignment to leave my country and move to abroad.So if you know
that you will use this fund honestly and wisely for things that will
glorify God's name, then do contact me back first through my private
email(barristerkeymaxwell@fastermail.com),You
should also forward tome your full name and address, telephone and fax
number for easy communication and to fax you the documents concerning
the
consignments.
Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.
Yours in Christ.
