THE ORIGIN AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE CELESTIAL CHURCH OF CHRIST CHORISTERS’ CAPE BY SBJ OSHOFFA

This piece of writing came into being in order to clear all shadows of doubts and to shed light on the uniform in question. In similar fashion, it is purposely written to also put away the age-long lies hovering around the spiritual regalia from anyone.

The Reverend Pastor, Prophet and Founder of Celestial Church of Christ Who, Papa Samuel Bilewu Joseph Oshoffa in 1982 was asked to give the divine interpretation behind the choristers regalia called ‘CAPE’ shortly after the elders meeting with Baba Abiodun Alexander Bada, Ogunlesi, Agbaosi and the rest of them.

Papa coughed gently, rubbed his nose with the thumb and index finger of his right hand. He positioned himself and said ” Halleluyah, ki n to dahun ibeere yin mo fe salaye oro kekere kan nipa aso awon akorin. (Meaning “before I answer any of your questions I want to talk briefly about the Regalia of the Chorister”) Gbogbo akorin ti o ba wo aso na, ki won mo wipe, aso evanjelisi (EVANGELIST) ni a gbe wo won lorun(for every Chorister that wears the Cape, they should know that the Regalia is of the Evangelist) . A fi eyin dawon lola ni ati wipe, ise ihinrere ni a gbe lewon lowo lati korin ki awon eniyan le ri iwosan, ki awon alaboyun inu ijo Olorun le ma a bi were, ki awon agan le ma a towo ala bosun, ki were le gba itusile logan, ki onirobinuje le di layo, ki Emimimo Olorun Oba Alaye le ma sise re loorekoore, ati beebeelo.” (we have exalted the Choir to propagate the good news of Jesus with Melodious Songs/Music, so that the world may have wellness and good health, so that the pregnant women in the Church of God may deliver safely, so that the barren ones may become fruitful, so that the mentally ill may receive deliverance, so that the sorrowful may receive everlasting Joy, so that the Holy Spirit may work accordingly in our mist, performing miracles and wonders etc).

Papa summed that aspect up by adding this clause ” Evanjelisi ni won nitori aso won ti afi fun mi latorunwa, a se alaye re ati itumo re fun mi wipe idi ti awo (colour) re ma fi ni buulu (blue) ati alawo oju orun irole (yellow) {crepuscular} lara ni wipe evanjelisi tiwon naa gbodo ni awo (colour) ti evanjelisi inu ijo maa n ni eyi ti o maa n ni buulu (blue) ati yellow(the Choir are the Evangelists, they are referred to as Evangelists because the regalia they are wearing is Divine. I will give its meaning and significance, the meaning of the colour which is blue and yellow, thus the same rank of the Honorary Evangelist or Senior Evangelist in CCC which is blue and yellow) .

To the colours and what they signify, Papa also explained them that very day. He continued ” Gege bi mo ti n ba oro mi bo, a salaye fun mi nigba ti a fun mi ni aso akorin bayi wipe, ayanfe itumo awon awo aso na re e. ” (as I was saying about the choir cape as revealed in a vision, I will explain further my beloved as follows)

He said it was now shown to him with clear explanations as follows:
” Igun meta ti aso na a ni tumo si Olorun Metalokan (This means the triangle neck line of the Cape means God, the Trinity: God, The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit ). He said” won tesiwaju ninu iran (I will continue into the vision) na pelu alaye nipa Olorun Metalokan wipe igun apa otun (the right hand side of the neck line pointed) tumo si ‘Olorun Baba’ (meaning God, The Father), igun apa osi ( the left hand side of the neck line pointed) tumo si Omo (means The Son) ati igun ti o wa si igba-aya (the part towards the sternum of the triangular neck line which is pointed) tumo si Emimimo (it means the Holy Spirit).
He was asked why that of the sternum carried the name ” Emimimo” (The Holy Spirit) and not the other two. Papa smiled and said ” E seun lopolopo (thank you very much) . He continued ” idi na re : a so fun mi pe igbakigba ti won ba ko Orin, Emimimo yoo darapo mo o, Yoo si sin Orin naa lo sinu ijo Olorun ati ayika re lati se ise asepe lara awon eniyan. itunmo re niyen (the reason it is called the Holy Spirit, whenever a Chorister or Choir sings, the Holy Spirit fellowships with them then with the congregation of the Church and the Church premises will be filled with the anointing for breakthrough. That is the meaning) .”
