The commitment text is a sacred text containing, on the one hand, basic divine truths, and on the other hand, commitments that guide the conduct of the Louzolified.

Anyone who makes a covenant with God according to the law of sacrifices is required to sign the commitment text.

Then, at the appropriate time, they will have the privilege of taking an oath on the Bible, the commitment text, and the spiritual documents of the Louzolo Association "Amour"-O.P.H., so that the Holy Spirit may establish them as a member of the body of the Lord Jesus Christ.

​

Through the engagement text, the second nation commits to serving the Lord Jesus Christ.

The engagement text begins with a call phrase that says the following: "To all brothers and sisters in Congo and around the world who sincerely and freely accept the call of our Lord Jesus Christ, here is the text of your engagement..."

Therefore, because of this call phrase, the first thing that members of O.P.H must know is that it is the Lord Jesus Christ who calls them through Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO. This is what should form the faith of O.P.H members.

However, this faith must be sincere!

 

 

The first part of the Commitment Text

The first article of this text states the following: "I acknowledge that I am a sinner, and I have accepted with whole my heart the salvation offered to me through the compassion of the living God."
This part implies seven (7) truths:

"I acknowledge that I am a sinner": Every member of O.P.H must recognize that they are a sinner. That is, they recognize that their way of thinking, acting, and speaking is not in accordance with God's will. Thus, they are willing to change and learn how to live according to God. Therefore, they must obey Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO to improve themselves and be sure to walk according to God's holy will.

​"I have accepted with whole my heart the salvation": Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO is not comparable to men who teach the word of God here and there: He came for a specific purpose, to save man from sin so that Satan has no hold over him. But also to lead humanity to eternal life, through faith in the divine truths of the hour.
Every member of the O.P.H. must be convinced that they are saved because they believed in Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO, whom the Lord Jesus Christ sent.
He is now like someone who had fallen into a river and was rescued into a canoe: He is saved from drowning but hopes to reach dry land because death still watches him in case the canoe was to capsize.

​That is why he listens, follows, and observes all the instructions of the canoeist, who alone has mastery over his canoe, meant to take them to solid ground. This canoeist, who saved him, is Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO. And their destination is eternal life, the path to which only this canoeist knows.

"By the compassions of the living God": Every member of the O.P.H. must believe that it is God who offers them salvation, because He (God) had mercy on them. It is therefore not because of the amount paid for the consecration sacrifices, or their social status, their ranks in the army, or anything else, no! Members of the O.P.H. are saved thanks to the love of God that He has shown them, that’s all!

​

So, on this basis, God will have no remorse in casting out a member who becomes proud and capricious in the Louzolo "Love" O.P.H. Association, due to their seniority in ASLA-O.P.H., their knowledge, or their multiple services rendered in this association, but who could also become so because of their wealth or social position.
"Of the living God": A member of O.P.H. must believe that the God who saves them is the living God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This living God who has acted, who acts, and who will always act! This God is not dead but alive: He is the God who directs the Louzolo "Love" O.P.H. Association through His living Word.

These are the seven (7) truths that we wanted to highlight in this first article of the commitment text.

The first part of the Commitment section of the pledge text

Similarly, the first part of the commitment section of the pledge text states the following:
"I renounce evil in all its forms, I renounce the world with its pleasures, its relationships, and guilty customs."

As we mentioned above, whoever believes in Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CEIKOUABO in order to obey him is already saved from the ruin where Satan would take them. That is why they must make certain commitments to strengthen this salvation. Here is an illustration to understand this very important point.

Let's imagine someone who has hands full of honey and asks for help because they are being attacked by bees that sting them. If we chase away these bees and bring them water, that person will still need to commit to washing their hands. Otherwise, even though the bees have been driven away, not only will they have a hard time leaving, but once gone, they will immediately come back because they will still be attracted to the honey covering that person's hands, right? The same goes with God. Indeed. It is sin, evil, that makes man a prisoner of Satan. Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETKOUABO certainly came to save man from Satan, but it is certain that Satan will always come back to disturb a brother or sister who has not renounced evil. Simply because this brother or sister possesses within them what Satan loves the most and what attracts him, that is, evil or sin.

This explains why, often, when some people come to the Lord Jesus Christ, their problems disappear or lessen. Then, some time later, these same problems return, sometimes even more severely. Simply because Satan is still drawn to the evil that such a person has not taken care to let go of, even though they have believed in the Lord Jesus Christ.
That is why, in saving people from Satan, Guy Emile LOUFOUA CETIKOUABO takes great care to first get them to promise that they will renounce evil in all its forms. Otherwise, it is a lost cause!
Indeed, there can be no agreement between darkness and light, as is well known!
One cannot follow Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO, who is the Light, and continue to live in sin (darkness), no!

​

When a member commits to following the Lord Jesus Christ, through Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO, by saying: "I renounce evil in all its forms, I renounce the world with its pleasures, relationships, and guilty customs," this involves seven things:
"I renounce evil in all its forms": The O.P.H. member must renounce evil in all its forms. Evil is not just killing someone, but also thinking ill of someone, quarreling with others without asking for forgiveness or reconciling with them. Additionally, it includes refusing to help someone, not keeping commitments toward one’s children, family, etc. In short, a serious member must examine their entire way of life thoroughly in order to change everything that is wrong, whether in thoughts, words, or actions. This is so that they may become a light.

​

"I renounce the world": The serious member must renounce the world. This does not mean that he can no longer wear a tie or that he must live secluded from people, no! It simply means that the member lives and acts among people without completely behaving like them. For he lives, thinks, and acts as God teaches him. It is by acting this way, in the midst of the pagans, that he will enlighten them so that they follow him (the member) and are also saved.

- God advises His members to renounce the pleasures, relationships, and customs of the world. But not all: only those who are deemed guilty, that is, those who are not authorized by God.

• For example, using drugs provides a pleasure considered guilty; getting attached to a person only out of self-interest is a guilty relationship (this is what pagans do); washing a newborn by rubbing gorilla bones on them, with the belief that these bones will give them strength, is a guilty custom (true strength comes from God, not from fetish practices); etc.
 

The pledge text is given by God to facilitate the rebirth of the 2nd Nation.

The members of the O.P.H. are guided by God, through the pledge text, in order to facilitate both their spiritual rebirth* and, on the other hand, their sanctification.

All provisions that support this dual objective are sealed in this sacred text, which is the pledge text.

​

It is imperative that anyone who is a member of the O.P.H. commits to renouncing sin and therefore Satan.

Such is the meaning of the couplet and the chorus of the beautiful hymn below, which wonderfully expresses the state of mind of a person who commits to renouncing Satan after having discovered
Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO: "Lumbuti me bu ntambudi nzambi, lolo mé
satana ni nkadidi, beto nandi mankululu ki fuila, nzololo lakama mvulusi
Chorus: mpana didi, mpana didi mé mfumu yézu ni landa ga nti, mé mfumu yézu ni landa ga nti"

​

They can be translated as follows: "Today, by accepting God's call, I renounce Satan. Our connection is thus broken forever so that I may be attached to my Savior.

Chorus: I commit, I commit, I will follow the Lord Jesus on earth, I will follow the Lord Jesus on earth."

When one comes to Jesus to follow Him, He presents us with this text of commitment. It is this text of commitment that guides us on the path to salvation. It serves as a reference for the children of God so that they can not only align their conduct with His holy will - to have eternal life here on earth - but also work for the salvation of the entire world.

​

Here is what the penultimate article of the engagement text calls on the conscience of the louzolifiés, stipulating the following: "I believe that the love of Jesus, who died to save me, calls for me to dedicate my life to His service for the salvation of the entire world. I wish to be enrolled now as a sincere member in the service of Jesus Christ."

During their oath-taking, after signing the engagement text, with their left hand on the Bible and right index finger raised high, the members of Christ sing this beautiful hymn: "To you Jesus I give myself this day, I will be faithful to you, to love and serve Jesus Christ my divine King I enroll with faith. With joy I carry the light, member of Christ this is my new name; to love and serve Jesus Christ my divine King I enroll with faith.
Solo: Bearer!

Chorus: Bearer of light, bearer of light to love and serve Jesus Christ, divine King, I enlist with joy. Bearer of light, to love and serve Jesus Christ my...

The Louzolified are truly lights (children of God) destined to drive away the darkness (Satan and his servants). This is what Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO wants humanity and the people of the second nation to know, because Satan continues to roam, trying to target the weakest.

Thus, as we reveal to you, Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO has all the power for the light to shine throughout the world, but Satan, the master of darkness, is also relentless. That is why, knowing this, Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO has continually called his children to the utmost vigilance.

Note:

"Taking the Oath": The oath-taking is a solemn moment during which the member or confirmed member of the O.P.H. commits to serving the Lord Jesus Christ. See photo above.
"Spiritual Documents": By spiritual documents, one means all ASLA-O.P.H. brochures containing the teachings of the O.P.H. The Bible is placed above them to signify that both the member and the confirmed member pledge to observe both the divine truths of the present time and the Bible.

Change everything that is wrong, whether in relation to one's thoughts, words, or actions. This is so that one becomes a light: In his book titled Should I Remind You That…, Guy Emile LOUFOUA-CETIKOUABO learned what proper speech, aspiration, thought, and conduct are as follows:

Proper thought: These are thoughts that are free from any illusion, any harmful calculation, any selfishness. Let us remember that thought is the mother of action, meaning that as soon as we think about something, we have taken the first step towards carrying it out. We have an interest in disciplining our thoughts.

Proper aspiration: This is the kind that allows one to have high and honorable intentions, plans, decisions, and projects, because most people are selfish and do not care about the needs of others. Only their whims matter, not those of others.

 

Proper speech: is that which expresses kindness, respect, and truth. Remain silent when words might hurt someone else. For words can be deadlier than a knife, more venomous than a snake's poison.

Proper conduct: is that of a peaceful, honest, and above all, selfless person. Avoid harming others in any form. It is also at this cost that others will see us as models, as living examples. Persuade, but never force. I repeat: Let us be that flower that offers its fragrance to everyone.

Thus, it is enough to apply this teaching of the Spirit of truth, which is Guy Emi Note; "God teaches him": We have to understand that, because of sin, man's thoughts are different from those of God who created him (cf. chapter 9.3-4). Therefore, man is not capable, by himself, of behaving in a way that is pleasing to God. As a result, the true behavior that man must exhibit is the one that has been taught to him by God. Read chapter 8.2: "Man loses divine knowledge and consequently God drives him out of the Garden of Eden" + chapter 9.3-4: "Colonized by Satan, man shines through evil" + chapter 12.9-10: "The work of the Lord Jesus Christ."

​

"Will illuminate them": What God expects from His children is that they preach by example.
Thus, in principle, is considered a child of God not the one who says Lord, Lord, but rather the one who does the will of God. Therefore, since all men are sinners, the member or confirmed member of the O.P.H. who has been saved from corruption must, in order to save others, behave as God has taught him. This is what the Bible teaches as follows: 'Do everything without grumbling or disputing, so that you may be blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation, in which you shine like stars in the world.' Philippians 2:15, TOB Version. + 'Let no one despise your youth; rather, be an example to the believers in word, conduct, love, spirit, faith, and purity.'

 

While waiting for my coming, devote yourself to the reading of Scripture, to exhortation, and to teaching. Do not neglect the gift of grace that is in you, which was granted through a prophetic word, accompanied by the laying on of hands by the council of elders. This is what you must take to heart. This is how you should persevere. In this way, your progress will be evident to everyone. Take care of yourself and your teaching. Persist in this. It is by doing so that you will save both yourself and those who listen to you." 1 Timothy 4:12-16. TOB Version.
