Subject: Remain blessed.
Dear Beloved,
May the peace and joy of the Lord be with us now and forever.
Thank you very much for your response, and willingness to carry out this great work of God according to His Divine Revelation and Instruction from above. Hopefully you are okay and at the same time having a spirit filled day?
Note that I am doing this to propagate the work of God through you and your Ministry. I am assuring you that you have nothing to be worried about, as far as I am concerned regarding this transaction, because I am doing this not by my power neither by my own decision, but through divine instruction from God. As you do not know me before, except by what I told you through email, so also I do not know you before except by your e-mail, and since I am in prayer about it, so that we will be in unity together with the Holy Spirit of God and everything will work out for the Glory of God.
I am a Lawyer by profession, a born again Christian and I am also a Kingdom Minded person. It is my desire to serve the Lord faithfully and be a servant "of whom the world is not worthy" according to HEBREWS 11. God promises that His children will struggle in this life, but He also promises to be faithful. I seek not for wealth, but to be one who glorifies God through obedience as an object of His Mercy! We are entrusted with His riches to increase their potential for His Glory. It is an awesome responsibility and opportunity to be a channel for God's riches. Our real treasure will be in Heaven. What we do here on earth is only in preparation for what we will do and have in Heaven. Jesus said our reward in Heaven would be great compared to here. So it is now left to you to believe me or to doubt me upon your wish, but I will still advice that you should not doubt our God who does wonders and miraculous things, no matter whatever you might have in y our heart, rather you
should be strong in faith and also be felt honoured by God to be a steward of His resources to extend His Kingdom. For COLOSSIANS 3: 23 & 24 says whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as to the Lord, and not unto men, and knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the inheritance, for you serve Lord Christ.
If you know that you are really interested in this Divine Assignment truly for the purpose of God's work only in order to extend His Kingdom, and also for me to be well assured and have solid assurance that the fund that will be given to you, will be used wisely by you for God's work to facilitate what God is doing through your Ministry, then I will want you to answer the below questions accordingly.
(1). I will like to know how old you are. I want you to assure me of your capability to handle huge amount of this nature.
(2). You will have to write at least with the few lines of what and what you will use the money for in your Ministry, in order to be well assured that the fund which will be given to you, will be wisely used for only purpose of God's work.
(3). Due to the fact that I will not want to disobey the Commandment of God, and also upon the instruction given to me by Mr. Wilson Schluter, before his death in accordance with the scripture of MATTHEW 6:1-4, which says we should do our alms secretly and our Father that see it secretly will reward us openly, hence the need for me also to require from you the assurance that you will keep this transaction absolutely private and confidential within yourself alone until the funds are in your possession.
Though you have answered some of the above questions in your response, but the questions requested from you does not mean that I don't have trust in you, but they are what will give more confidence about your integrity, and also that the fund which will be given to you will be truly used wisely for only purpose of God's work in your Ministry, and to assist me in fulfilling the WILL of my late client Mr. Wilson Schluter
Meanwhile, I will go to the security company over here in my country, to know the best way the fund will be received by you.
Lastly, you have to forward to me your full particulars to me, these include; your full names, physical contact address, and telephone numbers, as all these will be used for the fund release documentations. The needed particulars are very important please. As soon as I receive the above information, I will scan and send to you via email attachment, the original certificate of deposit that was issued to me by the company after depositing the two trunk boxes that contain the funds with them.
Remain blessed in the Lord, as I will be waiting to read from you.
Yours Sincerely,
Bro. Francis Adams.
