Dear BelovedBrother,
It is by the grace of God thatI received Christ,
knowing the truth and the truth has 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 manfor
witness of God´s mercy and glory upon my life.I have
the pleasure to share my testimony with you, having
seen your contact fromthe Internet. I am Barrister
Osaji Allen, the legal adviser to lateMr.and Mrs. Ben
Smith, a British couple that lived in my Country for25
years before they both died in the plane crash late
last year.These couples were good Christians, they so
dedicated to God but theyhad no child till they died.
Through out their stay in my country, they acquired a
lot of properties like lands, house properties, etc.
Astheir legal adviser, before their death, the husband
Mr.Ben Smith 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. I sold all the properties after their
death, as instructed by Mr.Ben Smith before
his death. And as matter of fact, after I sold all
their properties, I realized more than $30,000,000.00
(Thirty million US dollars), 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 $30,000,000.00 (Thirty
million US dollars) only. But Instead of giving
the main fund out for the work of God as instructed by
the owner , 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 management 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 which is equivelent to the amount.
I had an 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 aborn
again Christian. As a born again Christian, I started
reading myBible and one day, the Lord opened my eyes
to Ezekiel 33: 18 and 19where the word of God says:
"When the righteous turneth from his righteousness,
and committeth 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 workof God by the owner.
I have asked God for forgiveness and I know that
God has forgiven me.But I have to do what is lawful
and right in thesight of God bygiving out the fund to
the chosen ministry for the purpose of God's work as
instructed by the owner.
After fasting andprayers, I asked God to make
his choice and directme 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 youor your ministry that I picked
on the Christian site initially, but after my fervent
prayer over it, then you were
nominated to me throug hdivine revelation from God, so
this is how I received a divine revelation from the
Lord, I got your contact address, and I thendecided 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 broad. 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
email address: barr_osajiallen@yahoo.fr for more
details.You should also forward to me your physical
contact address were you will like the consignments
delivered to you,your direct telephone and fax number
for easy communication and to fax you the documents
concerning the consignments.Your prompt response will
behighly appreciated.
Yours in Christ,
Barrister Osaji Allen
