In fact, the young man hides behind his guitare hoping to escape from the burning call that pushes him to preach the Word of God. A difficult task that he fears regarding to the responsibilities that are implied in it. But the hidding game couldn't last too long under the vigilant eyes of l'ancien Barutti ! this one noticed him and introduced him immediately as a minister of the Gospel. Since then, the young preacher will see himself given many tasks linked this ministry.

Later on, the child must leave his own, his church, including his post of general treasurer in a local company and move to France in conformity with the command of the Lord. In fact, through prophetic messages, as well as many other confirmations, he receives from the Lord, the commision of serving Him in Paris.

"When the Lord sends someone somewhere, the first preson he meets is the devil ", says William Branham. Thus, our missionnary who freshly came from Africa met a lot of trials on his way. It is with courage and perseverance that he faced the hostility d’un champs de travail particulièrement rude.

In addition, the refusal of all compromise concerning his living conditions caused him pretty much troubles and a combat because of his open preference for the principles of the Word. And, when he had got the endorsement of our God about his commission, the church started at his own place with his wis and their two children as members.

The news got propagated very quickly and some brothers and sisters who already heard him preaching came and joined the young church. Besides, his harshness and his firmness toward sin and all the schemes that happen in te city, he was at the same time a trum and a stumbling stone, for certain people even asked themselves the question to know if it was possible to live such preachings here in Europe. It is one of the reason why Roc Séculaire did run for nearly two years with around twenty members only, untill December 6th, 2000, a date from when a new era sarted for this young church: « When I will be arisen among you, I will attract the world toward Me »

In fact, the Lord Jesus-Christ has remained faithful to His own principles. Which principles that led the Reverend Ndaye to reestablish first the altar, regenerating by the way the holiness of the message of the hour by preaching the Gospel without compromise to his small flock, while the Lord vindicates him. God agreed the faith and the ministry of the one that He commissionned. Since then, signs, prodigies and miracles follow this ministry. The news got spead out widely and shoke the surroundings. Pas étonnant that men, women as well as entire families arrive from Belgium and from certain countryside of France for they had heard about the revival and the apostolic God at Roc Séculaire Tabernacle. The challenge begun to be overcome. Infatuated of the supernatural gospel, this son of the thunder has the holiness as horse of battle. Dieu claims holiness, says William Branham...Without living a holy life God does not agree your sacrifice... So is the leit motive of the preachings of Robert Ndaye since the beginning of his ministry, here in Paris.

"We preach to bring the new birth and we want to bring the revival here" he always insists in his preachings. But the most spectacular declaration which will be engraved forever in every souls was made in the second semestry of the year 2000.

In fact, the very young pastor, suspended all the activities and declared to his church: «We want either a complete church or no church at all» and he pursued saying « If the Apostolic Church started with a revival, mine should start by a revival too; if the Lord Jesus-Christ do not grant me that, we will close the church and put the key underneath the door ».

Two or three month later, on a certain december 6th, 2000, it was clearly established that there is a particular complicity between the man and the God of Branham that he serves. Whilst he was leading a prayer meeting where 12 of the church members where participating, the Holy-Spirit stepped down and shoke the whole congregation just like the of the Pentecost; and this, during almost 4 hours confirming by the way that Jesus-Christ is the same yesterday, today and for ever. Signs, prodigies, miracles, couples restored, men and women transformed and become christians. It was a new start for Roc Séculaire Tabernacle. Aren't all these deeds written in the book of the acts of the Holy-Spirit inside Roc Séculaire? For that, we reffer you to the pages devoted to testimonies that you may visit as you wish. Six months later, on may 20th, 2001, we assisted to a remake of the Holy-Spirit. After that he led the assembly into adoration, the pastor Ndaye rose his roast to offer a prayer to God and the annointing fell. The power of God shoke the whole church, fellow brothers and sisters were shouting, rolling on the floor, glorifying the Lord. There had never been preaching on that day anymore, even the offerings weren't collected. Many other similar visitations of our Lord Jesus-Christ took place at Roc Séculaire. Since then, God has become a reality and walks henceforth together with His servant and His people. The Holiness and the Power of God do good work. The piety and the revival: This does summarize the action and preaching of the pastor Ndaye.

To all of you who refused all kind of compromise for one or another reason, know that the promise made to Joshua (Joshua 1 :8) has become a reality amoung us.

Wake-up Paris, for The Everlasting God has restored the tree of the bride of Jesus-Christ for you.

To all of you who have been disappointed by the denominations, the bark of the doctrine has been restored.

To all of you, poorly liked of the society and this decadent civilisation, the leaves of the brotherly fellowship have been unfolded.

Finally, to all of you who have been deprived of the Living God, the fruits that represent at the same time the spiritual gifts and the revealed Word have been manifested.

In this time where the faith that has been trasmitted once for all to the saints and revived by the ministry of Malachi 4 has caught a serious cold, God has pulled out His sword and has sent you His humble servant, the Reverend Pastor Ndaye another to lighten the tarnished coat of the Endtime Message. Sport, Orgies, feasts, games in short, the paganism has entered in the lap of this Message; It's image has been dirtied ! There is therefore danger in between.

Because of that, you have taken a distance by report to the revelation of the hour. You probably decided to return to the denominations for you thought that there is no hope for this Message that you knew to be so pur. Come back brothers and sistersand wake-up for the offering of the flour has been done, the pot is healed, come and eat ! Here is the accomplishment of what the Lord did through the king Josiah who purified Jerusalem of all its idols and its pagan altars and gave back the tables of the law to the holy city. God has vindicated the trueness and the invincibility of the Endtime Message through the ministry of His servant.

The redaction.

Today again when I look back in the depth of my memory, tears run in my eyes as I remember the hard times that I have been through with my owns, a few time after we arrived in France. With the decline, instead of keeping dark and painful rememberance of the past, I consider the then endured difficulties and the coming ones as a classic check point in the evangelic mission and a continious motive constraining me endlessly to reach to the Lord. Did not our elders pass through that ? (My song « le témoignage d’un vrai témoin » summarizes this past time). With a tone of the precarious conditions of life: without lodgement or incomes, I found myself facing a dilemma : yield the offer to serve the Lord as associated pastor within a church of the place or hold fast to requirements of the prophecy that had been given to me concerning the missionnary work in the parisian area. In fact, as I left Kinshasa, I had a mission order in my pocket. (Listen to the audio clip). I must acknowmedge that the fact of being feed, lodged, and so on, by a church -especially in the conditions that were mine at that time- was pretty attractive. Meanwhile, I had to show maturity another to see beyond the immediate advantages. By God's grace, I chosed to follow the path that, I knew, were traced by the Lord.

I found a small appartment (F2) in Épinay-sur-Seine (93), an area in the northern Paris. I remember that my prayer to obtain this lodgement was followed by a promise : « if You gve me, Lord Jesus, an appartment, I will start there the work for which You told me to leave my country ».

Nevertheless, I did dare start anything in that way before consulting the Lord about knowing if it was really the time That He had chosen for me to start a church. Then I decide to consecrate the night january 23rd to 24th, 1999 to the prayer as I used to do several times already. Esther, my dear wife accepted to stay up with me. We passed the whole night in prayer. Durant the whole night, the Lord spoke neither to my wife nor to myself. As I was getting in the bathroom, I heard the telephone ringing...

The answer of God comes from outside our walls

The Lord's answer came to us in a divine dream through a brother in the United States. I was the only one together with my wife to understand this dream that appeared to be enigmatic for the very person who received the dream. Nevertheless, to start and to keep up a full gospel church in France nowadays, seems to be a pure utopia when we consider the spiritual condition of this country. But, out of some experiences, I know that when the Lord asks you to fullfil a mission, the first thing to do is to reverse all the reasonings !

The first meeting

The fisrt meeting took place in the afternoon of that very day with my wife and our two children, as members. Sister Lumumba and her daugther joined the group nearly an hour after the beginning of the meeting : that was the birth of Roc Séculaire Tabernacle ! Following the example of any thing which is inspired of the Lord Jesus-Christ, Roc Séculaire Tabernacle has gone through difficult times asserting itself as a stable full gospel church. Doesn't William Branham, our prophete, say "When the everlasting God sends someone somewhere, the first person he meets is the devil"?
