Ambag-Katoliko: Templo Central ng INC™ Disenyo ng Katoliko?

Nothing originally theirs ika nga!

Alam niyo ba na ang Central Temple ng Iglesia Ni Cristo®-1914 ay disenyo ng isang DEBOTONG KATOLIKO? Siya po ay si Ginoong Carlos Antonio Santos-Viola ~ isang batikang arkitekto!

Ilan sa mga gusaling dinisenyo ni G. Santos-Viola ay ang INC™-1914 temple sa Cubao (Quezon City), Francisco Del Monte (Quezon City), Bago-bantay (Quezon City), templo sa Bautista Makati, Tondo at Punta Sta. Ana (Manila) ayon sa History of Architecture. 

AMBAG-KATOLIKO

Bagama't ang rehistradong Iglesia Ni  Cristo® 1914 ay nasusuklam sa mga Katoliko at sa Iglesia Katolika, MALAKI ang AMBAG ng IGLESIA KATOLIKA at ng mga Katoliko sa kanila.

Halimbawa na lamang ang GREGORIAN CALENDAR na ipinakilala ni PAPA GREGORIO XIII  taong 1582 sa kanyang Papal Bull na Inter Gravissimas.

Ang pagpapakilala ng Iglesia Katolika sa Gregorian Calendar ay hindi nabuo ayon lamang sa kagustuhan ng Santo Papa kundi upang GANAP na MAILUKLOK at MAITAMPOK ang PASKO NG PAGKABUHAY o EASTER SUNDAY at matuldukan sa tamang petsa sa pinakadakilang kapistahang ito. Sa ngayon, isa ang samahan ni G. Felix Manalo sa mga NAKIKINABANG sa AMBAG ng Katoliko sa mundo.

Maging sa pelikulang "Felix Manalo" (kwentong-buhay ng kanilang tagapagtatag),  halos mga Katolikong artista rin ang mga gumanap [Basahin: How Dennis Trillo got the role of Felix Manalo...]. Maging sa kanilang mga anibersaryo, mga Katolikong artista rin ang mga imbitadong nagpasinaya sa kanilang okasyon para  magbigay-aliw sa kanilang mga kaanib.

At maging sa BIBLIA o Salita ng Diyos, wala silang magawa kundi ang gamitin ang SIPI NG SALITA NG DIYOS na ININGATAN ng IGLESIA KATOLIKA mula nang NABUO ang KUMPLETONG CANON nito sa COUNCIL OF ROME (382 A.D.) at sa COUNCIL OF CARTHAGE (419 A.D.)

The Council of Rome was a meeting of Catholic Church officials and theologians which took place in 382 under the authority of Pope Damasus I, the current bishop of Rome. It was one of the fourth century councils that "gave a complete list of the canonical books of both the Old Testament and the New Testament."

Hindi ang Iglesia Protestante ang naglimbag ng listahan ng Biblia kundi ang Iglesia Katolika sa Council of Rome, dito ipinakilala ng TUNAY NA IGLESIA NI CRISTO ~ ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA ang mga Aklat ng Biblia (Lumang Tipan at Bagong Tipan) na karapat-dapat na basahin sa lahat ng Simbahan ng tunay na Iglesia ni Cristo!

It is likewise decreed: Now, indeed, we must treat of the divine Scriptures: what the universal Catholic Church accepts and what she must shun. The list of the Old Testament begins: Genesis,one book; Exodus, one book: Leviticus, one book; Numbers, one book; Deuteronomy, one book; Jesus Nave, one book; of Judges, one book; Ruth, one book; of Kings, four books [First and Second Books of Kings, Third and Fourth Books of Kings]; Paralipomenon, two books; One Hundred and Fifty Psalms, one book; of Solomon, three books: Proverbs, one book; Ecclesiastes, one book; Canticle of Canticles, one book; likewise, Wisdom, one book; Ecclesiasticus (Sirach), one book; Likewise, the list of the Prophets: Isaiah, one book; Jeremias, one book; along with Cinoth, that is, his Lamentations; Ezechiel, one book; Daniel, one book; Osee, one book; Amos, one book; Micheas, one book; Joel, one book; Abdias, one book; Jonas, one book; Nahum, one book; Habacuc, one book; Sophonias, one book; Aggeus, one book; Zacharias, one book; Malachias, one book.  

Likewise, the list of histories: Job, one book; Tobias, one book; Esdras, two books; Esther, one book; Judith, one book; of Maccabees, two books.  

Likewise, the list of the Scriptures of the New and Eternal Testament, which the holy and Catholic Church receives: of the Gospels, one book according to Matthew, one book according to Mark, one book according to Luke, one book according to John. The Epistles of the Apostle Paul, fourteen in number: one to the Romans, two to the Corinthians [First Epistle to the Corinthians and Second Epistle to the Corinthians], one to the Ephesians, two to the Thessalonians [First Epistle to the Thessalonians and Second Epistle to the Thessalonians], one to the Galatians, one to the Philippians, one to the Colossians, two to Timothy [First Epistle to Timothy and Second Epistle to Timothy], one to Titus, one to Philemon, one to the Hebrews. Likewise, one book of the Apocalypse of John. And the Acts of the Apostles, one book. 

Likewise, the canonical Epistles, seven in number: of the Apostle Peter, two Epistles [First Epistle of Peter and Second Epistle of Peter]; of the Apostle James, one Epistle; of the Apostle John, one Epistle; of the other John, a Presbyter, two Epistles [Second Epistle of John and Third Epistle of John]; of the Apostle Jude the Zealot, one Epistle. Thus concludes the canon of the New Testament. Likewise it is decreed: After the announcement of all of these prophetic and evangelic or as well as apostolic writings which we have listed above as Scriptures, on which, by the grace of God, the Catholic Church is founded, we have considered that it ought to be announced that although all the Catholic Churches spread abroad through the world comprise but one bridal chamber of Christ, nevertheless, the holy Roman Church has been placed at the forefront not by the conciliar decisions of other Churches, but has received the primacy by the evangelic voice of our Lord and Savior, who says: "You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it; and I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you shall have bound on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you shall have loosed on earth shall be loosed in heaven."

Kaya't malaking utang na loob ng buong ka-Kristiyanuhan sa Iglesia Katolika ang kanilang mga Biblia, iyon lamang, ang kanilang mga sipi ay kulang-kulang sapagkat inalis ito ng mga Protestante noong 1549. Ang mga salita ay nalihis na sa tunay na kapakahulugan nito kaya't nagkanya-kanya ang mga Kristiano sa kanilang unawa at nagdulot ito ng kanilang pagkakawatak-watak.

Sa kasaysayan ng ating kaligtasan tanging ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA lamang ang TUNAY na iglesiang TATAG NI CRISTO at wala nang iba.  Lisanin na ang mga pekeng iglesia at mga mapagpanggap na mga mangangaral nito at bumalik sa tunay na Iglesia ni Cristo sapagkat ang kaligtasan ay masusumpungan lamang sa tamang daan na nasa loob ng tunay na iglesia.

Evangelical Mission ng INC™ sa Pasig (Sports Arena), Mga Katolikong Artista ang Nagpasaya

Mga Katoliko na naman ang inimbitahang magpasaya sa pagtitipon ng mga kaanib ng INC™ ni Felix Manalo noong nakaraang Martes ng hapon sa Pasig Sports Arena na dinaluhan ng halos 7,000 katao. Kabilang sa mga naimbitahang Katolikong artista ay ang mag-asawang Vic Sotto at Pauleen Luna ayon sa CNN Philippines.

Matatandaan na sa kanilang mga Anibersaryo, Katolikong artista pa rin ang kanilang kinukuhang entertainer sapagkat iilan lamang ang mga kaanib ng INC™ na artista tulad nina Snooky Serna (na isang convert lamang ayon sa GMA News) at ni Gladys Reyes na halos nalalaos na rin sa kasikatan.

Maging ang kanilang FELIX MANALO movie ay tadtad ng mga Katoliko, hindi para maniwala sa kanilang doktrina kundi para lamang sa malaking Talent Fee na binayad sa kanila (basahin ang PhilStar).

"Papel ni Pilar Manalo-Danao, panganay na anak ni Felix Manalo, ang founder ng Iglesia ni Cristo, ang papel na ginagampanan ni Snooky sa pelikula."

Si Dennis Trillo, gumanap na tagapagtatag ng Iglesia Ni Cristo® (Felix Manalo) ay hindi kaanib ng Iglesia Ni Cristo® (ayon sa Rappler) kaya't hindi rin siya naniniwala na si Felix Manalo nga ay ang "Huling Sugo" sa mga "wakas ng lupa."

Ayon sa aktor, nahirapan daw siyang gampanan ang role ni Felix Manalo bilang taga-pagtatag ng INC™ sapagkat wala raw pong recorded na video kundi audio lamang daw ang kanyang kasangkapan, at sa tulong na rin ng mga Ministro ng INC™ kaya't nagagawa raw niya ang role ayon sa dikta ng mga ministro (basahin ang Rappler).

Si Joel Lamangan, direktor ng nasabing pelikula, ay isang kaanib ng Masonry, ang pinag-ugatan ng samahang INC™ ayon sa kanilang opisyal na logo.

Ang Pagbabalik-loob ni Christine Jacob sa tunay na Iglesia ni Cristo

How Christine Jacob left the Church and came back

MUNTINLUPA City, April 20, 2016, CBCP News – Like many in the showbiz world, Christine Jacob experimented with religion.

“It was a very, very tough time in my life,” she noted, describing the days she was on noontime TV almost daily.

Though a cradle Catholic herself, the Olympian swimmer and show host would join Born-Again fellowships with her celebrity friends in her desire to have what she called a “personal relationship with Jesus.”

She thought this could also help her become immune from the bad influences the entertainment industry is notorious for.

“For a while, I didn’t know where, how I was going. And that was when I got into Born Again. That, at least, at that point, helped keep me grounded,” she explained.

Ironically, after years of “soul searching,” she would find what she was looking for in the faith of her youth.

“And from there I was just praying for somebody to just come into my life, you know? … And then I met my husband who’s Opus Dei,” she continued.

Back to Rome

It was thanks to Mr. Francisco Sandejas that Christine was able to make the “return trip” to Rome.

But her “reversion” was not without initial reservation on her part.

“We would always debate, trying to see who’s the best, trying to convert each other or something like that,” she explained, smiling.

“He taught me how to relearn the Catholic faith over again,” she added.

Also thanks to her husband, Christine got exposed to the pro-life cause, becoming one of the country’s better-known defenders of family and life.

According to her, since becoming a “Catholic Again,” and a wife and mother to boot, she sees to it that everything they believe, say, and do is in keeping with the Catholic faith.

“So with my kids I always make sure it’s really an important part of their life. More than anything, it’s more of a relationship they need to have,” she stressed.

Christine pointed out that the job of any parent, and of mothers in particular, is easier if they know their children have faith.

Faith at home

“I think that’s already half the battle for any parent if they know that their child is close to God,” she said.

Christine shared she and her husband go out of their way to instill in their children the fundamentals of the faith like teachings on the Mass, Confession, and the other Sacraments.

They also read them stories from the Bible to complement and reinforce what they learn at school.

“How I rear them, how I lecture has always been on the faith. I say, ‘Whatever you do make sure you can always of it front of lolo and lola (grandfather and grandmother),’” she added.

They make sure the little Sandejases—all five of them—will grow up respectful, honest, and disciplined.

“Values are very important for me,” exclaimed Christine.

Hands-on mom

Like other hands-on parents, she is “very particular” and refuses to be dependent on other people in terms of caring for her kids.

“If they’re feeling sick, I wanted to know why they’re feeling sick. It’s not because somebody would tell me,” she said.

She shared that an ordinary day at the Sandejas home revolves around her scheduling, organizing, running various errands, working out, bringing kids to school, waiting for them to come home, and helping with their homework.

On top of it all, Christine believes that a mother should lead by example, putting the welfare of her kids before her own.

“Not so much about going to Mass everyday. It’s not that. It’s just understanding the kids, empathizing with them, being there for them. I think for me that would be a mom,” she said. (Raymond A. Sebastián / CBCP News)

Ang "Brad Pitt ng Mexico" inuna ang pananampalataya kaysa katanyagan!

Isa na namang patotoo ng isang kaanib ng tunay at nag-iisang Iglesiang tatag ni Cristo -- ang Iglesia Katolika. Tinalikdan niya ang katanyagan alang-alang sa kanyang pananampalataya at ngayo'y gumagawa na ng mga pelikulang angkop sa ating kapanahuhan!

Why the "Brad Pitt of Mexico," Eduardo Verastegui, Left Acting to Make Movies for God

Eduardo Verástegui put his faith at the center of his career

[Source: Aleteia] At 28 years old, Eduardo Verástegui was a rising star. After his success as a telenovela actor in his native country of Mexico, he landed coveted roles when he came to America, including a role opposite Jennifer Lopez in a music video, posing for Calvin Klein, and a lead in the 2003 romantic comedy Chasing Papi.

But just as his Hollywood career was taking off, Verástegui made a decision that changed the course of his life and career: He decided to leave the Hollywood scene—at least the way he was living it. In an interview with Guideposts, Verástegui said it all started with conversations he had with his English tutor.
