Subject: HONEST
Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is by the grace of God that I received 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 Samuel Efe, the legal
adviser to late Mr. and Mrs. Morgan Williams, a British couple that lived in my
Country Nigeria for 19 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. Morgan
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. Morgan Williams before his death. And as matter of fact, after I
sold all their properties, I realized $10,000,000.00 (Ten million US dollars
),Therefore the total amount to be invested into God's work as instructed
by the owner, is $10,000,000.00 (Ten million US dollars) 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 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.
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 Gold Bar, 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.
You should also forward to me your 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.
Barrister.Samuel Efe.
