Ang sabi ng BIBLIA, IISA lamang ang Diyos! (Deut. 6:4) "Makinig ka, O Israel! Ang Panginoon nating Diyos ay ang tanging Panginoon!"
Ganito rin ang pag-uulit ng KATOTOHANANG ang DIYOS ay IISA, (sa 1 Cor. 8:6) "...subalit sa atin ay iisa lamang ang Diyos, ang Ama na pinagmulan ng lahat ng bagay, at tayo'y sa kanya, at iisa ang Panginoon, si Jesucristo, na sa pamamagitan niya'y nangyayari ang lahat at sa kaparaanan niya tayo ay nabubuhay."
Ano naman ang sabi ng opisyal na KATEKISMO ng Iglesia Katolika ('na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo.' - Pasugo Abril 1966, p. 46)?
CCC §199 - "I believe in One God." [Sumasampalataya ako sa IISANG DIYOS!]
Sino nga ba ang NAGSASABING DALAWA ang DIYOS?
Silang mga di nakakaunawa ng Biblia at katuruan ng Iglesia Katolika ang NAGSASABI na ang DIYOS ay DALAWA o TATLO.
Isa ang Iglesiang tatag ni G. Felix Y. Manalo sa Pilipinas noong 1914 na NAGPUPUMILIT na 'TATLO' raw ang DIYOS ng mga KATOLIKO: Isang Diyos Ama at isang Diyos Anak at isang Diyos Espiritu?
Sa kanilang MALAKING KAMANGMANGAN sila'y nagtutulak na ang Diyos daw ng mga Katoliko ay TATLO.
Subalit ang KATOTOHANAN, ang DIYOS ay IISA sa TATLONG PERSONA. At ito ang OPISYAL na KATURUAN ng TUNAY na IGLESIANG TATAG ni CRISTO, at ang KATURUANG ito ay MALINAW na NASUSULAT sa BIBLIA.
John 1:1;14
"...the Word was with God ...the Word was God... the Word became flesh, and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father’s only Son,
full of grace and truth." [Ang Salita ay Diyos. At ang Salita ay NAGKATAWANG-TAO ~ Siya ay NAGING TAO sa katauhan ng ating Panginoong Hesus.]
John 1:18
"No one has ever seen God. The only Son, God, who is at the Father’s side, has revealed him." [May mas lilinaw pa ba sa letra por letrang banggit ng Biblia, ang BUGTONG NA ANAK, DIYOS?]
John 3:13
"No one has gone up to heaven except the one who has come down from heaven, the Son of Man" [Malinaw na sinasabi ng Panginoong Hesus na SIYA ay NAGMULA sa LANGIT... na nagkatawang-tao.]
John 3:31
"The one who comes from above is above all... But the one who comes from heaven [is above all]." [Siya, na galing sa langit. Siya ay bumaba galing langit sa pamamagitan ng paglilihi ng Inang Birheng Maria.]
John 5:17-18
"My Father is at work until now, so I am at work. For this reason the Jews tried all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but he also called God his own father, making himself equal to God" [Ninais patayin ng mga Hudyo sapagkat malinaw sa pang-unawa nila na INAAKO ni Cristo ang pagka-Diyos maliban sa Ama na Siyang kinikilala lamang ng mga Hudyo bilang tanging Diyos. Sounds familiar ba mga INC™ 1914?]
John 6:38
"...because I came down from heaven not to do my own will but the will of the one who sent me." [Paulit-ulit na sinasabi ng Panginoong Hesus na Siya ay GALING SA LANGIT. Hindi lang Siya tao lamang!]
John 6:44
"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him, and I will raise him on the last day." [Diyos lamang ang nagbibigay ng buhay]
John 6:46
"Not that anyone has seen the Father except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father." [Wala pang nakakita sa Diyos Ama kundi si Cristo LAMANG sapagkat Siya'y KASAMA ng Ama mula pa sa pasimula. Siya ay ETERNALLY BEGOTTEN, naroon na Siya BAGO pa lalangin (bago pa si Abraham, AKO NGA) ang lahat ay nalalang sa PAMAMAGITAN niya... Siya na sa pasimula ay Salita, Siya na nasa Diyos at Siya na Diyos tulad ng Ama ay NAPARITO sa LAMAN ~ nagkatawang-tao ~ isinilang na tao ~ kaya't ang DIYOS nagkalaman, may anyo, may dugo, may buto!]
John 8:29
"The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what is pleasing to him." [Paulit-ulit niyang sinasabi na Siya at ang Ama ay IISA!]
John 8:58
'You are doing the works of your father!' [So] they said to him, “We are not illegitimate. We have one Father, God'”... (John 8:41) Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM.” [Bilang-TAO sinasabi niya sa mga Hudyo na bago pa (isilang o lalangin) si Abraham Siya'y SIYA NA NGA (katulad ng pagpapakilala ng Diyos kay Moses bilang "I AM sa Exodu 3:14)
John 10:30-31
"The Father and I are one. The Jews again picked up rocks to stone him." [Siya at ang Ama ay IISA!]
John 10:36
"...can you say that the one whom the Father has consecrated and sent into the world blasphemes because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’? [Anak ng Diyos, Diyos Anak]
John 10:38
"...you may realize [and understand] that the Father is in me and I am in the Father." [Ang Ama at si Hesus ay IISA.]
John 11:27
"Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world." [Si Hesus, Anak ng Diyos, naparito sa laman ~ ipinanganak, naging tao, nagkalaman ~ Diyos nagkaroon ng anyo, nagkaroon ng dugo, laman at buto ~ sapagkat Siya ay nagkatawang-tao!]
John 12:44-45
Jesus cried out and said, "Whoever believes in me believes not only in me but also in the one who sent me, and whoever sees me sees the one who sent me." [Makikita ang Diyos Ama kay Hesus sapagkat ang Ama at Anak ay IISA!]
John 13:19
[Jesus said:] "From now on I am telling you before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe that I AM." [God replied to Moses: I am who I am. Then he added: This is what you will tell the Israelites: I AM has sent me to you. -Ex.3:14)]
John 17:5
Jesus said: "Now glorify me, Father, with you, with the glory that I had with you before the world began." [Malinaw na sinasabi ni Hesus na ang KANYANG KALUWALHATIAN ay NAROON na KASAMA ng DIYOS AMA bago pa lalangin ang mundo! Siya nga ay DIYOS!]
John 17:11
"Holy Father, keep them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one just as we are." [Hangga't hindi pumasok sa mga kukote ng mga Manalo followers ang katotohanan na ang DIYOS AMA at DIYOS ANAK ay IISA!]
John 17:21
"...that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you..." [IISA ang DIYOS sa AMA at ANAK (at BANAL NA ESPIRITU)]
John 17:22
"And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are one." [Ang kaluwalhatian ni Cristo ay nagmula sa Ama na siya ring kaluwalhatian ng Ama.]
John 18:37
"For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice." [Ang Diyos ay ISINILANG kaya't Siya'y NAPARITO sa lupa bilang TAO!]
John 20:28
Thomas answered and said to him, "My Lord and my God!" [Kung alam ni Cristo na hindi pala Siya Diyos, marapat lamang, bilang isang matuwid na 'tao' na ITINAMA niya si Tomas sa kanyang maling pananaw. Ngunit HINDI ito itinama ni Hesus sapagkat KATOTOHANAN ang mga IPINAHAYAG ni Tomas, taliwas sa paliwanag ng INC™ 1914 na natural na BULALAS lamang daw ito ng isang taong NAGULAT!]
Philippians 2:5b-6a
Christ Jesus,Who, though he was in the form of God... [Si Cristo, DIYOS!]
May mas bibigat pa ba sa sinasabi ni HESUS tungkol sa KANYANG PAGKA-DIYOS?
Lalabas na si FELIX Y. MANALO at ang kanyang mga BAYARANG MANGANGARAL ay mga SINUNGALING, mga MANDARAYA at mga ANTI-CRISTO (kalaban ni Cristo). Sapagkat HINDI NILA TANGGAP si HESUS, DIYOS, na NAPARITO sa LAMAN!
2 John 1:7
Many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh; such is the deceitful one and the antichrist. [Sampal sa kanilang kahangalan!]
BAKIT HINDI NA LANG ITO ANG KANILANG PAGTAWANAN: ANG KANILANG SUGO, MAY NANAY, NGUNIT HINDI UMANIB SA IGLESIANG TATAG NG KANYANG ANAK.
AT ANG APO NG SUGO ~ SI EDUARDO V. MANALO AY MAY NANAY NGUNIT ITINAKWIL NIYA ITO AT ITINIWALAG SA IGLESIANG TATAG NG KANIYANG LOLO. SAMAKATUWID ANG INA NI KA EDUARDO AY MASUSUNOG SA DAGAT-DAGATANG APOY SAPAGKAT SIYA'Y ITINIWALAG AT HINDI NA KAANIB SA IGLESIA NI CRISTO® 1914!
Ang Iglesia ni Felix Y. Manalo ~ ang Iglesia Ni Cristo® ay iglesiang puno ng panlilinlang. Niyuyurakan ang Panginoong Hesus samakatuwid ay mga kaaway ni Cristo (2 Juan 1:7)
Sa kanilang Online Pasugo, hinati sa TATLO ang kanilang artikulo LABAN sa PAGKA-DIYOS ng ating Panginoong HESUS. Pinamimilit nila na si HESUS ay TAO LAMANG at ang AMA ang TANGING DIYOS. Inaaway nila ang kanilang sariling mga MALING UNAWA sa DOKTRINA ng TRINIDAD. Para sa kanila ang 'Banal na Santatlo' ay nagtuturong TATLO ang DIYOS.
Sa kanilang 'Is Christ God' part1 of 3 series [https://www.pasugo.com.ph/is-christ-god-part-i/] bagamat si CRISTO raw ay tinatawag na ANAK NG DIYOS, hindi pa rin Siya Diyos sapagkat HINDI raw niya TAHASANG (o literal) inamin na Siya ay DIYOS.
Totoo kaya?
Kapansin-pansin na SADYANG PINUTOL nila ang KARUGTONG ng SITAS: "After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: 'Father, the time has come. GLORIFY YOUR SON, that YOUR SON may GLORIFY YOU... Now this is eternal life: that they may KNOW YOU, the ONLY TRUE GOD, and JESUS CHRIST, whom you have sent."
Heto yung SADYANG PINUTOL na karugtong ng kanilang sitas: I GLORIFY YOU ON EARTH by finishing the work that you gave to do. So now, FATHER, GLORIFY ME in your own presence WITHTHE GLORY THAT I HAD IN YOUR PRESENCE BEFORE THE WORLD EXISTED."
SAPUL! Sadyang HINDI nila SINIPI ang kasunod na talata upang MAKAPANLINLANG!
Kung TAO LAMANG ang ATING PANGINOONG HESUS, bakit SIYA'Y NAROON na KASAMA ng DIYOS AMA BAGO pa LALANGIN ang MUNDO?
Sapagkat SIYA AY DIYOS!
"But now you seek to kill Me, a MAN who has told you the truth which I heard from God..." (John 8:40)
May PINUTOL na naman ang mga MANDARAYANG MANGANGARAL na AYAW nilang MAKITA natin. Narito ang KABUUAN ng JUAN 8:40-58 (New King James Version):
"You do the deeds of your father.”
Then they said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father—God.”
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.
Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me. Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me? He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.”
Then the Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?”
Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.
And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges. Most assuredly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he shall never see death.”
Then the Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You have a demon! Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and You say, ‘If anyone keeps My word he shall never taste death.’
Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Who do You make Yourself out to be?”
Jesus answered, “If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is [o]your God. Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I say, ‘I do not know Him,’ I shall be a liar like you; but I do know Him and keep His word.
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”
Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”
Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
Nagtatalo ang mga Hudyo at si Cristo tungkol sa KUNG SINO nga ba SIYA? Sapagkat NALILITO ang mga Hudyo sa Kanyang aral. PINAPAHIWATIG kasi ng Panginoong Hesus na SIYA RIN AY DIYOS KATULAD NG AMA.
At sa mga katulad nilang AYAW MANIWALA sa Kanyang pagka-Diyos ay mga KAMPON ng DIABLO!
Kaya't sa KATIGASAN ng kanilang mga ulo, tulad ng katigasan ng ulo ng Iglesia Ni Cristo® na tatag ni G. Felix Y. Manalo, isang PASABOG na parang MALAKING BOMBA ang PAG-AMIN niyang 'BAGO PA (umiral o isinilang si Abraham) ay'I AM' (Ako ay Ako Nga).
Simplehan natin.
Ang PAGKAUNAWA ng mga HUDYO sa SALAYSAY ni HESUS ay PINALALAGAY NIYANG SIYA'Y DIYOS KATULAD NG AMA sapagkat NAROON na Siya BAGO PA LALANGIN ang mundo; at NAROON na Siya BAGO PA UMIRAL si ABRAHAM na halos 2,000 taon ang kasing-tanda niya kay Cristo (bilang tao). Ang PAG-IRAL na ito ni Cristo bago pa lalangin ang mundo ay NANGANGAHULUGANG SIYA AY DIYOS ETERNALLY CO- EXISTED WITH THE FATHER na HINDI MATANGGAP ng mga Hudyo noong kapanahunan Niya at HINDI rin MATANGGAP ng mga KAANIB sa Iglesiang tatag ni Felix Y. Manalo!
At ang paggamit ni Cristo ng salitang 'I AM' na Siya rin ang PAGPAPAKILALA ng Diyos Ama kay Moises sa Bundok ng Horeb (Exodo 3:14) PARA SA MGA HUDYO ay ISANG KALAPASTANGANAN sa Diyos sapagkat para sa kanila, ang Diyos Ama lamang ang tanging Diyos (sounds familiar ba?).
Isa lang ang kayang patunayan ng Iglesiang tatag ni Felix Manalo: na si CRISTO AY TAO.
Ngunit pinatutunayan ng Biblia na si CRISTO ay TOTOONG DIYOS na NAGKATAWANG-TAO kaya't Siya ay may BUTO, Siya ay may DUGO at Siya ay MAY-ANYO. At ang mga di-tumatanggap na si CRISTO (DIYOS) na NAPARITO sa LAMAN (naging tao) ay mga kaaway ni Cristo, kampon ng Diablo at mga ANTI-CRISTO (2 Juan 1:7)!
Kung mayroon mang doktrinang GAWA-GAWA lamang ay ang doktrinang si FELIX Y. MANALO ay ang 'Huling Sugo ng Diyos sa mga Huling Araw'! Sapagkat WALANG NABANGGIT sa Biblia na FELIX Y. MANALO at wala ring sinabing may HULING SUGO sa katauhan ni Felix Manalo!
Sa mga kababayan naming kaanib sa Iglesia Ni Cristo® na TATAG ni Ginoong FELIX Y. MANALO noong 1914, HINDI KAMANGMANGAN ang sagot na ang DINADALA ng INANG BIRHENG MARIA sa kanyang SINAPUPUNAN ay DIYOS sapagkat ito ay sinasang-ayunan ng Biblia.
Walang ibang dinadala ang Birheng Maria kundi ang ANAK NG DIYOS, ang ating Panginoong JESUS, ang ALPA at OMEGA ~ ang SIMULA at WAKAS; DIYOS na WALANG HANGANG, MAKAPANGYARIHAN, ang SALITA ay DIYOS, na sa PAMAMAGITAN niya ay NALIKHA ang LAHAT ng bagay at NALALANG.
HIMAY-HIMAYIN NATIN para maunawaan ng mga kaanib sa Iglesia ni Ginoong Felix Y. Manalo ~ ang INC™1914.
Ang sabi ni Apostol San Juan (1:1) ay ganito: na SA PASIMULA ay ANG SALITA, at ANG SALITA ay NASA DIYOS, at ANG SALITA AY DIYOS!
MALINAW na sinasabi ni Apostol Juan na DIYOS ang SALITA mula pa sa PASIMULA.
At anong NANGYARI sa SALITA na SIYANG DIYOS?
Ayon ulit kay Apostol San Juan,ANG SALITA (na DIYOS), ay NAGING TAO, MULA SA sa PAGKA-DIYOS ay NAGING TAO, NAGKAROON ng KATAWANG KATULAD ng sa TAO~ NAGKATAWANG-TAO!(Juan 1:14)
Kaya't MALINAW na MALINAW pa sa SIKAT ng ARAW na ang NASA sinapupunan ng Birheng Maria ay DIYOS ~ ANG SALITA, NAPARITO sa LAMAN, nagkaroon ng KATAWANG-TAO sa LAMANnaging KATULAD natin!
Kaya't Inang Maria ay DALA-DALA niya sa kanyang SINAPUPUNAN ang SALITA (DIYOS) na NAGKATAWANG-TAO!
Sa mga HINDI TUMATANGGAP ng KATOTOHANANG ito, na ang DIYOS ay NAGKATAWANG-TAO, NARITO ang MALINAW na katotohanan. SILA raw ay mga KAAWAY NI CRISTO! Mula sa mga pahayag ni Apostol San Juan sa 2 JUAN 1:7 na siya ring ginamit nitong kaanib ng INC™1914, out of context, ay ganito:
"Sapagkat maraming magdaraya na nangagsilitaw sa sanlibutan, sa makatuwid ay ang mga HINDI NANGAGPAPAHAYAG na si JESUCRISTO ay NAPARIRITONG NASA LAMAN. Ito ang mga MANDARAYA at ANTICRISTO!"
HIMAY-HIMAYIN NATIN ang 2 Juan 1:7!
May KAISAHAN ang PAHAYAG ni Apostol San Juan. Sa (Juan 1:1)ANG SALITA AY DIYOSatang DIYOS ay NAGKATAWANG TAO(Juan 1:14), HINDI nagbabago ang kanyang posisyon maging sa 2 Juan 1:7.
Sapagkat MARAMING MGA MANDARAYA raw ang SUSULPOT (sounds familiar ba ~ 1914?) Sila ay ang mga IMPOSTER, mga UMAANGKIN ng pagka-PROPETA, ang iba ay mga ANGHEL daw, o mga SUGO ng Diyos kuno, ngunit mga SINUNGALING, mga MANLILINLANG, mga MANDARAYA, sapagkat HINDI nila PINAPAHAYAG sa kanilang mga KATURUAN na ANG ATING PANGINOONG JESUCRISTO ay ang SALITA ~ DIYOSna NAPARIRITONG NASA LAMAN ~ ay NAGKATAWANG-TAO!
SIYA naHINDI NAGPAPAHAYAG na ang DIYOS (SALITA) ay NAGKATAWANG-TAO at NAPARITO sa LAMAN ay ang mga KALABAN o KAAWAY ni CRISTO o ang ANTICRISTO!
Sino ba ang HINDI NAGPAPAHAYAG na ang DIYOS ay NAGKATAWANG-TAO na NAPARITO sa LAMAN?
Hindi kami.
Kami sa IGLESIA KATOLIKA na 'SA PASIMULA AY SIYANG IGLESIA NI CRISTO' (Pasugo Abril 1966, p. 46) ay NAGPAPAHAYAG na ang PANGINOONG JESUS ay DIYOS (SALITA) na NAGKATAWANG-TAO ~ NAPARITO sa LAMAN sa PAMAMAGITAN ng BIRHENG MARIA.
IPINAPAHAYAG namin na ang PANGINOONG JESUS ay DIYOS ~ EMMANUEL (Sumasaatin ang Diyos) na tunukoy sa Isaias 7:14, 8:8 ~ ang EMMANUEL na tunukoy ni apostol San Mateo 1:23 ~ ang batang ipapanganak na tatawaging'ANAK NG KATAAS-TAASAN'(Lucas 1:32) ~ ang SALITA, DIYOS na NAGKATAWANG-TAO(Juan 1:1,14), TUNAY na DIYOS at TUNAY na TAO! Hindi namin Siya tinuturing na TAO LAMANG kundi SIYA ay DIYOS na NAPARITO SA LAMAN! TOTOONG TAO (100%) at TOTOONG DIYOS (100%) ~ ANAK ng DIYOS AMA!
Paanong DI MATANGGAP ng INC™1914 ang Doktrinang IISA ang Diyos sa TATLONG PERSONA ngunit TANGGAP nilang (Iglesia Ni Cristo® 1914) DALAWA ang PANGINOON ~ isang Diyos (Ama) at isang Tao lamang (Jesus)??? Hindi ba't KAIPOKRITUHAN!
Kumusta naman si Ka FELIX Y. MANALO at ang kanyang Iglesia?SILA na HIND NANGAGPAPAHAYAG na ang PANGINOONG JESUS ay DIYOS ~ ay NAPARIRITO SA LAMAN ~ DIYOS na NAGKATAWANG-TAO!
Para sa kaniya at ng kanyang mga tagasunod, si CRISTO ay HINDI DIYOS KAILANMAN! Ngunit Siya ay TAO NA NAGKATAWANG-TAO (Pasugo Enero 1964, p. 13)( kahabag-habag na pag-iisip)!Samantalang si FELIX Y. MANALO ay isang ANGHEL o SUGO ng Diyos?!
Kaya't samakatuwid, MALINAW na kung SINO ang tinutukoy ni Apostol San Juan na TUNAY na MANDARAYA at ANTICRISTO!
“Ang batang lalaking ipanganganak na tinutukoy ni Isaias ay ang ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo. Sinasabi ding Siya’y aatangan ng pamamahala; na ito’y pinatunayan ni Cristo ng sabihin Niyang: “Ang kapamahalaan sa langit at sa ibabaw ng lupa ay naibigay na sa akin” (Mt. 28:18). Pagkatapos na Siya’y atangan ng pamamahala, Siya’y TATAWAGING DIOS; ngunit, HINDI TUNAY NA DIOS, kundi TATAWAGING LAMANG, gaya ng pagtatawag na dios sa mga anak ng Kataastaasan. Maliwanag na sinasabi ng talata na si Cristo na tinatawag na Dios ay may Dios na kinikilala; at ang Kanyang Dios ay Siyang nagpahid o naghalal sa Kanya; sapagkat ang kahulugan ng salitang Cristo ay pinahiran. Sa Juan 20:17 ay sinabi ni Cristo: “Aakyat Ako sa Aking Ama, sa inyong Ama at sa AKING DIOS sa inyong Dios. Kung gayon, ang ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo dios na may Dios.”
PASUGO Nobyembre 1939
“Bakit pa kami mag-aaral sa naniniwala naman kaming si Cristo’y TINATAWAG NA DIOS. Ikinakapit na talaga kay Cristo ang salitang “Dios” nguni’t si Cristo ay hindi TUNAY NA DIOS, kundi TINATAWAG LAMANG DIOS. Ang salitang “Dios” ay ikinakapit din sa mga anak ng Kataastaasan, tinatawag din silang Dios (Awit 82:6, Juan 10:34-35). Ikinakapit din sa anghel ang salitang “Dios” (Huk. 13:21-22; Gen. 32:28; Osias 12:3-4). Si Moises ay ginawang Dios ng Dios at parang Dios (Exo. 7:1; 4:16). Kung sa mga anak ng Dios ay ikinakapit ang salitang “Dios” lalong may katwirang ikapit kay Cristo ang salitang ito (Dios), nguni’t hindi ito katunayang si Cristo ay tunay na Dios kundi Siya’y tinatawag lamang Dios.”
THE IGLESIA NI CRISTO's denial of Jesus' deity is nothing new under the sun. Their opposition to Christ's deity has long been refuted by the Church Fathers and theologians both Catholics and Protestants in huge volumes of books since the CHURCH of CHRIST affirmed this doctrine in 325 AD. And as a Catholic, I am compelled to share my thoughts on this. We Catholics who love the Lord and His one true Church should never leave their lies and deceitful teachings against our Lord God Jesus Christ unchallenged.
Rejection of Christ's deity was all evident in the Bible itself. It is understandable because, among biblical personages like the prophets and sages, our Jesus Christ is UNIQUE, from Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah none of them ever claimed divinity or God himself 'manifested in the flesh'. And because Christ's claim goes against the Jewish belief in 'ONE GOD', Him being equal with God ~ and God himself makes him answerable to the Law~ The SHEMA ~ therefore He was found guilty of BLASPHEMY~ A MAN making himself GOD ~ deserving DEATH.
"The Jews answered him, 'We are not stoning you for a good work but for blasphemy. You, a MAN, are making yourself GOD.'" -John 10:33
No doubt, as a PROPHET Jesus was loved by His own people (the Jewish people). However when he was found doing GOD'S BUSINESS on earth such as FORGIVING sins (God alone can forgive sinsMark 2:7) or BREAKING the SABBATH laws (...the Son of Man is Lord of the sabbath (Mat. 12:1-8), it was problematic for the Jewish authorities, for GOD ALONE is the only one who could forgive sins and not men. And for a pious Jew, braking the Sabbath Law is breaking God's law itself! By breaking the Sabbath law, Jesus was perceived not from God but as an enemy of the Jewish people.
Also very disturbing for the Jewish authorities was His claim of ETERNAL EXISTENCE ('before Abraham came to be I Am'.John 8:58).
And when He was BEFORE THE SANHEDRIN our Lord Jesus Christ then boldly proclaimed the TRUTH about HIM saying: "I AM" the MESSIAH -THE SON OF GOD and "you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power and coming with the clouds of heaven."(Mark 14:62)
To his horror and disgust, the High Priest of the Jewish temple TORE his sacred garments before the tribunal and PRONOUNCED his verdict against Jesus: "What further need have we of witnesses? You have heard the BLASPHEMY. What do you think?" (Mark 14:63-64). And they ALL CONDEMNED Him to DEATH!
AS GOD MANIFESTED IN THE FLESH, He raised up the DEAD, defied laws of nature, and even commanded the sea and the wind and they obeyed (Mk 4:35-41). Deeply disturbed and baffled, His disciples start questioning WHO JESUS WAS: "Who then is this whom even wind and sea obey?" A MAN in appearance yet can COMMAND NATURE and they ABIDE?
But the greatest thing and I would say, the most scandalous ACT OF LOVE He selflessly performed was when HE SAVED the world through his PASSION and DEATH. For a mere man SAVING mankind from the pit of damnation is not even possible. There is no other Savior but ONLY GOD ~ "I am the LORD, your God, since the land of Egypt; You know no God besides me, and THERE IS NO SAVIOR BUT ME." -Hosea 13:4. And there is no one who could give eternal life BUT God (John 17:2)
Given those Biblical facts above about our Lord Jesus Christ we, therefore, re-affirm what was affirmed in 325 AD that our LORD JESUS is GOD COMING IN THE FLESH (2 John 1:7). He is 100% MAN and 1005 GOD. DIYOS SA KALIKASAN, TAO SA KALAGAYAN!
RECYCLED ARIANISM
Aside from the Jewish authorities, in TIMELINE of Christianity, some few disillusioned people came up with the same recycled REJECTION like the Jewish authorities. Among them was ARIUS, a bishop of Alexandria (Egypt) who denied Jesus co-equal with God the Father, created and thus inferior in essence and nature. Other than Arius were Nontrinitarians such as Theonas, Secundus of Ptolemais, Eusebius of Nicomedia, and Theognis of Nicaea. Their false teachings were all condemned by the Church of Christ ~ the Catholic Church.
So that in 325 AD at the Council of Nicea, the one and only CHURCH of CHRIST which was the CATHOLIC CHURCH defended and condemned the false teachings of Arianism and finally defined and AFFIRMED the official Christian doctrine on JESUS CHRIST the SECOND PERSON of the HOLY TRINITY, true GOD and true MAN - all beautifully summarized in the Nicene Creed.
INC's teachings are hinges into two major doctrines: (1) CHRIST IS NOT GOD - ONLY A MAN and (2) THE ORIGINAL CHURCH of CHRIST (the Catholic Church) APOSTATIZED. Refuting one will make their doctrine collapse. Refuting two will make their man-founded church crumble.
Their Pasugo magazine was incorrect: The title should be 'THE BIBLICAL PROOF THAT CHRIST IS GOD'. The teaching of the Iglesia Ni Cristo® founded by Mr. Felix Y. Manalo in 1914 in the Philippines wasn't a secret at all. Manalo's founded church does not have an extensive and scholarly written catechism that is publicly available in print or online like the Catechism of the Catholic Church which was made available for public reading, for evangelization and teachings, for moral and practical guidance. A glimpse of their recycled Arianism can only be read in their official magazine called 'PASUGO' just like what was published online above.
No serious Christian would deny the fact that our Lord Jesus Christ was born a man. It's all there in the Bible. However, Christ being God is deeply problematic to the Jewish authorities and the Iglesia Ni Cristo® preachers. They failed to discover it. And they refuse to see the Truth. They chose to remain blinded and are leading their own followers to fall on their own pit.
Never in John 8:40 (NKJV) was Jesus DIVINITY denied. His being a man does not deny him being DIVINE.
In fact, on the contrary, the same New King James Version of John Chapter 40:42-58 confirm HIS BEING DIVINE:
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God...”
“Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
Jesus claimed eternal EXISTENCE even before Abraham was ~ 'I AM'!
In Hos. 11:9 and Ezek 28:2 (NKJV) were quoted OUT OF CONTEXT. These verses DO NOT apply to Jesus even he was found to be a man. These verses were addressed to mortal men like us, who, by no means were creatures created by God's power and not applied to our Lord Jesus. That's becasue JESUS was NOT CREATED! He is BEGOTTEN UNCREATED Son of God.
You see the parallelism between the Iglesia Ni Cristo's argument and the Jewish people during the time of Christ, both denied Jesus' divine origin because He is a Man in appearance yet making Himself equal with God.
Therefore let us boldly confess this truth about our Lord Jesus Christ, that He is FULLY HUMAN (John 8:40) and He is FULLY DIVINE (John 1:1). St. John the Evangelist was very consistent with this truth 'Jesus (God) coming in the flesh'! (2 John 1:7)
If John Chapter 8 ended at VERSE 40 then together with the Iglesia Ni Cristo®, we could certainly conclude the same. But the whole chapter 8 NEVER talked about Jesus'NOT being GOD' but it talks about Jesus, eternal GOD manifested in the flesh (MAN), God - distinct from the Father, in essence, same God with the Father.
Here is the context in John 8:
Verse 40 - Jesus, a man who told you what He heard from God
Verse 41 - The Jews said God is their "Father"
Verse 42 - Jesus said, if God is their "Father", they should believe Him because He is from God
Verse 44 - Jesus confirms that those who deny Him aren't from God but from the devil.
Verse 45 - Jesus tells the truth and those who deny him (God in the flesh) do not want to listen.
Verse 47 - He who is of God hears Him, the Word of God. He who is not from God denies Him.
Verse 56 - Jesus claimed to see Abraham (Abraham preceded Jesus in the flesh 18 Centuries)
Verse 57 - Jews understood what Jesus meant. So he was questioned 'You're not in your 50s and yet you claimed to have seen Abraham' (who was 1,767 years older)?
Verse 58 - Jesus confirmed to the Jews that BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS"I AM"! Boom!
Are we not supposed to be preaching the TRUTH about our Lord Jesus Christ? But what the Iglesia Ni Cristo® preachers doing is exactly the opposite. They twisted the Bible to suit their deceitful teachings and lied about our Lord Jesus Christ.
In quoting Acts 2:22 (NKJV) these deceivers made it appear to their readers that the Apostle St. Peter was a LIAR.
They put their false understanding of Jesus into the Apostle's thoughts and then made it appears that St. Peter was their witness against Jesus' divinity.
How could the Apostle Peter denies Jesus' divinity when he deeply knew who JESUS WAS. And because of his deep faith conviction, he ultimately offered his own life for the sake of the Lord and His Church?!
So that in 2 Peter 1:1 he confessed our Lord JESUS is GOD AND SAVIOR!
"To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of ourGOD AND SAVIOR Jesus Christ"
For thousandth times, the CATHOLIC CHURCH ~ the ONLY TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST AFFIRMS and DEFENDS this TRUTH. That our LORD JESUS CHRIST is 100% MAN – born of the Blessed Virgin Mother Mary – but NOT a 'man ONLY'! Matthew 1:18, 20 DOES NOT DENY HIS BEING DIVINE. This verse is still in parallel with the WHOLE BIBLICA TRUTH about our Lord Jesus Christ that HE'S GOD BORN IN THE FLESH!
A slap in the face, here is Apostle John 1:1 -3 declaring this ultimate Truth!
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
Apostle John was declaring JESUS was the WORD ~ He was WITH GOD ~ and He was GOD ~ everything was created, without Him, nothing came to be. The WORD - GOD BECAME FLESH and we see His glory! The GLORY of the ONLY BEGOTTEN SON ~ JESUS CHRIST our Lord and Savior God!
"For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh."
THEREFORE those WHO DO NOT CONFESS GOD coming in the flesh are called DECEIVERS!
And what shall we do to these "DECEIVERS"?
The Apostle sternly WARNED us of their coming, he said (2 John 1:8-11):
"Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.
"Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds."
Beware of the "DECEIVERS" Do not take them into your houses and do not greet them! That's the right thing to do!
How could Paul's Letter to the Galatians (4:4) is contextually opposed to the book of the Old Testament (Numbers 23:19) when they were written a thousand years apart?
Copying a phrase from one book and paste it to another phrase from the Bible and to form a sentence is THE WORK OF A DECEIVER!
Again Galatians 4:4 does not deny Jesus' divinity. The truth about Him being the LOGOS ~ Word of God, God himself who became flesh can never be disproved by quoting Galatians 4:4.
God is TRUTH. Numbers 23:19 says it. God is NOT a man! We as mortal beings can never be gods.
But GOD can be a MAN as He wishes. He is omnipotent! And when he chose to be incarnated into FLESH, He was still God! Diyos sa kalikasan, Tao sa kalagayan!
The deceivers of faith, they cannot provide a single verse from the Bible that says "JESUS IS NOT GOD". They could only assume He is not God by using verses that say Jesus was born a man!
This is a product of poor theology. That's understandable because none of the INC™ paid ministers is a theologian. With no theology of their own and no book written, their ministers heavily rely on what was written or said by other preachers and theologians during their pamamahayag. Their ministers could only explain their doctrines by demonizing Catholic doctrines. What a deceiver!
From its founder Felix Y. Manalo to his grandson Eduardo V. Manalo, none of them earned a doctorate in the field of theology and yet their copied blasphemous interpretation of the Bible against our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ is the only accepted basis for their "aral" or "doktrina".
"God from God, Light from Light"is what was affirmed by the Church of Christ at the First Council of Nicea in 325 AD. The Iglesia Ni Cristo's misinterpretation of John 8:42 was nothing but intentional deceit for deception. It was twisted so that they may justify their twisted doctrine and blaspheme our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
Jesus "proceeded forth and came from God" interpreted as a "beginning" of Christ was really misleading. It suggests that Christ WAS CREATED.
The Bible is very clear on this issue: that Jesus (Word) was the CREATOR, not creation (All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made -John 1:3)!
These INC™ paid ministers are mocking John's theology of the Logos (Jesus the Word of God) when he said "All things were made through Him (Word), and without Him (Word) nothing was made that was made." (John 1:3) Indeed JESUS THE WORD of GOD was THE CREATOR. Jesus Christ HAS NO BEGINNING, he is THE CREATOR the beginning of everything!
Watch brother Mario Joseph, a Muslim convert to Catholicism on JESUS - WORD OF GOD (CREATOR vs CREATION)
GOD (THE FATHER) AND JESUS THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA (First and the Last)
In ISAIAH 44:6 (NKJV) says GOD ALONE is the FIRST and the LAST and besides Him, there is NO OTHER!
"Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel,
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
‘I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God."
Another compelling truth about Jesus' divinity was recorded THREE TIMES in the Book of Revelations where He proclaimed HE IS THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA - THE FIRST AND THE LAST!
Rev. 1:8 (NKJV)"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the [b]Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
Rev. 21:6 (NKJV)"And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts."
Rev. 21:13 (NKJV) "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last."
For the Iglesia Ni Cristo® and nontrinitarian sects, having the Father and the Son as both God makes TWO GODS. Adding the Holy Spirit makes THREE. While the official teaching of the Church of Christ says there is ONLY ONE GOD and NOT three (read HOLY TRINITY)
"The whole history of salvation is identical with the history of the way and the means by which the one true God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, reveals himself to men "and reconciles and unites with himself those who turn away from sin" -CCC 234 (emphasis mine)
If Christ died, that's because He was 100% HUMAN. Yet that does not deny him being God.
As God, he has the power to lay his life and to claim it back.
“Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again." -John 10:17-18
Yes, our Lord Jesus Christ is 100% ETERNAL GOD!
He died in the FLESH as he is subjected according to the FLESH "God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh" -Romand 8:3
But Him being in the Flesh is NOT his original nature. HE'S GOD "You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world." -John 8:34
So no one is denying Jesus being human. Similarly, no one denies Him being God. And when our Lord God, the Alpha and the Omega - the First and the Last will come again to judge the living and the dead, everyone will see Him, even the one who pierced Him! -Revelations 1:7-8
Christ recognizes God the Father as His God (Mark 15:34)! Christ recognizes God the Father as His Father and THEY ARE ONE (John 10:30) Jews, too, recognize Jesus divinity but rejected it! (John 10:33)
'Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He (Jesus) should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.' -John 17:1-5
And it is a blatant LIE to say that God the Father DID NOT recognize Jesus His Son. His baptism, the Father already declared Him His Son His beloved: "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased." (Matthew 3:17) And again during Jesus' transfiguration, God the Father declared the Son: "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. Hear him!" (Matthew 17:5)
God told us to LISTEN TO JESUS and NOT to paid Ministers of the Iglesia Ni Cristo®! And if we listen to Jesus, we should listen to His original CHURCH He founded. Because His Church is the PILLAR and GROUND of TRUTH! (1 Timothy 3:15) Jesus has NOTHING to do with the Iglesia Ni Cristo® founded by Mr. Felix Y. Manalo in 1914! Do not listen to them.
I cannot find any proof in Isaiah 44:8 that says God DID NOT RECOGNIZE Jesus as God! That verse only proves our belief in ONE GOD while they believe in Three Gods
If the Prophet Isaiah would be alive today, he would have rebuked this Iglesia Ni Cristo® paid minister for LYING! "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel." -Isaiah 7:14
IMMANUEL, according to St. Matthew (1:23) means GOD WITH US! For indeed GOD was BORN to us IN THE FLESH! God with us ~ Immanuel! (John 1:1; 14)
According to the Bible CHRIST is able to sympathize with us because HE was born LIKE US in everything EXCEPT sin!
"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin." -Hebrews 4:15
So what's unusual to see Christ "worried" after all he is 100% human? And if God has to be less of human qualities, why is it that God has to REST after creating the entire universe in 6 days? (Genesis 2:2-3)
In conclusion, the Bible says, 'JESUS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER' (Hebrews 13:8)! If Christ is GOD eternally from the beginning, He is God when He was born flesh and He is the same God when He will come again!
CHALLENGE TO THE IGLESIA NI CRISTO® 1914
That's why we shouldn't be wondering why Jesus ate and drink, he was tempted, he cried, he was angry, he suffered, he feared and he died ~ because HE WAS HUMAN LIKE US (born in the flesh) but NEVER in the Bible, he was said to be "NOT GOD"!
As a challenge to all paid ministers of the Iglesia Ni Cristo®, please give us the following exact words/phrase in the Bible.
1. Bible verse that explicitly denies Jesus NOT God.
2. Bible verse that the Father denied Jesus as God.
3. Bible verse that says we should recognize TWO LORDS!
4. Bible verse that says we should worship a MERE MAN aside from God the Father.
5. Bible verse that spells out Felix Y. Manalo as the 'Last Messenger of God in these Last Days."
6. Bible verse that explicitly says 'The Church of Christ will completely apostatize' and that a man from the Philippines will emerge and re-establish His Church!
7. Bible verse that explicitly says the Church would be named "The Iglesia Ni Cristo"
8. Bible verse that mandates Christians to call themselves "Iglesia"
9. Bible verse that says only members of the 'Iglesia Ni Cristo' are saved!
10. Bible verse that says 'The Bible is the sole authority" in matters of faith and morals!
At sino ba ang tunay na PANGINOON: Ang AMA ba na siyang tanging DIYOS o si JESUS na TAO lamang sa kalagayan?
Sa mga nagninilay, nagsusuri at naguguluhan dahil sa mga salungatang aral ng mga BULAANG PROPETANG NAGSULPUTAN sa ating kapanahunan, hindi po pwedeng DALAWA ang PANGINOON at DALAWA rin ang TAGAPAGLIGTAS. Ito ay HINDI SINASANG-AYUNAN ng Biblia.
Ang sabi ni Apostol San Pablo sa mga taga-Efeso (4:5-6) ay may IISANG PANGINOON katulad ng pagkakaroon ng IISANG PAGBIBINYAG, IISANG DIYOS at Ama nating lahat.
Kung sasabihin man ng mga INC™ na ang Efeso 4:6 ay siyang nagpapatunay na ang Ama 'lamang' ang Diyos ay isang malaking kahangalan sapagkat hindi ito sinasang-ayunan ng Biblia. Wala pong salitang 'lamang' rito at lalong hindi naman sinasabi rito na ang Panginoong Jesus ay hindi Diyos.
Lumilitaw sa bersikulo 6 na MAS SINASANG-AYUNAN nito ang TURO ng TUNAY na Iglesia ~ ang Iglesia Katolika "na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo" (Pasugo Abril 1966, p. 46) na ang DIYOS ay IISA (CCC 129) at hindi tatlo ayon sa binibintang ng mga unitarians(na unang sumulpot noong Enero 22, 1556 sa Poland.
Maraming talata sa Biblia ang nagpapatunay na ang Diyos Ama ay siyang tagapagligtas (2 Samuel 22:3, 2Hari 13:5, Salmo 106:21, Isaiah 19:20, Isaiah 43:3, Isaiah 43:11, Isaiah 45:15, Isaiah 45:21, Jeremias 14:8, Osea 13:4, Lukas 1:47, Jude 1:25 at marami pang iba.
Maraming talata rin sa Biblia ang nagpapatunay na ang Panginoong Jesucristo ay siyang tagapagligtas (Lukas 2:11, Juan 4:42, Gawa 5:31, Gawa 13:23, Efeso 5:23, Filipos 3:20, 1 Timoteo 1;1, 1 Timoteo 4:10, 2 Timoteo 1:10, Titus 1:13, 2 Pedro 2:20, 1 Juan 4:14, at marami pang iba.
Ibig bang sabihin ay MAY AGAWAN sa PAGLILIGTAS ng Diyos Ama at ni Jesus na tao lamang ang kalagayan (ayon sa INC™)?
Kung ang DIYOS ay IISA, hindi tatlo, gayon din namang ang PANGINOON ay IISA ~ hindi dalawa. At kung ang Diyos ay IISA, ang Panginoon ay IISA, hindi ba't ang PAGLILIGTAS ng Ama at ni Jesus ay IISA ~ hindi magkaiba at hindi nagtatalo? Kung gayon, ang pagiging DIYOS at PANGINOON ng AMA at ni JESUS ay IISA!
Sa kabuuan, ang turo ng tunay na Iglesia ~ ang Iglesia Katolika ~ ay may IISANG DIYOS, IISANG PANGINOON, IISANG BINYAG at IISANG IGLESIA na siyang dapat aniban ng lahat ng tao at ito ay ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA. Sapagkat ang PAGLILIGTAS ng IISANG Diyos ay IISA sa kanyang IISANG PAGBIBINYAG! (Efeso 4:5-6)
Mga inaralan ng mga bulaang propeta kaya't salat sa katotohanan ang kanilang kaalaman!
Una, ang MATEO 24:11 ay hindi LABAN sa mga nagtuturong si CRISTO AY DIYOS kundi ito ay bahagi lamang ng KAISAHAN ng turo ng Biblia laban sa mga BULAANG PROPETA na ITINATAKWIL si CRISTO na NAGKATAWANG-TAO.
Mateo 24:11"Lilitaw ang maraming huwad napropeta upang iligaw ang mga tao.
Ngunit bago pa ang versikulo 11 ay ating basahin ang mga naunang talata. Sa Mateo 11: 9-10 ay ganito ang sinasabi: "Pagkatapos, kayo ay isasakdal, pahihirapan at papatayin; tunay na kapopootan kayo ng marami dahil sa akin. Marami ang mawawalan ng pananampalataya, magkakanulo at mapopoot sa isa't isa."
Sa Mateo 24:9-10, kailan ba sinakdal ang INC™? Kailan ba sila pinahirapan? Sino na ba ang pinatay sa kanilang hanay dahil siya ay kaanib ng INC™? Sila nga ba ang kinapopootan ng marami?
Sa pagdating ng mga bulaang propeta, ang tunay na Iglesia ay isasakdal, pahihirapan at papatayin; kinapopootan ng marami.. IYAN ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA sa kasalukuyan.
SINO NGA BA ANG MGA TUNAY NA MGA BULAANG PROPETA?
Ang sabi ng Biblia ang mga bulaang propeta ay ang mga taong HINDI TUMATANGGAP KAY CRISTO NA NAGKATAWANG TAO!
1 Juan 1:15-18:"Batay sa inyong narinig na dumarating na ang anti-Cristo, marami nang anti-Cristo ang dumating; kung kaya nalalaman nating sumapit na ang huling oras."
1 Juan 11:19:"Sa atin sila naggaling ngunit hindi sila atin, sapagkat kung sila ay atin, nanatili sana sila sa atin. Subalit ito ay nangyari upang matanyag na silang lahat ay hindi atin."
Ang sabi ng Biblia ay sumapit na nga ang mga huling mga araw sapagkat DUMATING na ang mga ANTI-CRISTO!
Sino sila?
Ang mga BULAANG PROPETA raw ay NANGGALING SA ATIN! Ngunit HINDI NA SILA SA ATIN sapagkat tayo ngayo'y INAATAKE nila!
PASUGO Oktubre 1956, p. 1:
“Ang Iglesia ni Cristo ay nagdaos ng pamamahayag sa Lunsod ng Davao. Nagsalita roon si Kapatid na Felix Manalo at ang kasama niyang mga Ministro. Ipinahayag doon ng mga nagsalita na ang Iglesia Katolika Romana ay hindi itinatag ni Cristo kundi itinatag ng Diablo."
Hindi ba't si FELIX MANALO ay GALING SA ATIN (KATOLIKO) at tayo ngayon ang INAAWAY nila? Kaya't HINDI NA SIYA SA ATIN! Natupad nga naman sa kanya ang sinasaad ng Biblia.
At bakit naman natin sinasabing ANTI-CRISTO si Felix Manalo?
Sapagkat IPINANGANGARAL niya at ng mga kaanib nito na si CRISTO AY HINDI DIYOS ~ isang bagay na tinututulan ng Banal na Biblia.
Filipos 2:5-6"Taglayin ninyo ang mga damdamin na tinaglay din ni CRISTO JESUS, na bagaman NASA KANYA ANG KALIKASAN NG DIYOS ay hindi niya inangkin ang matulad sa Diyos..."
Juan 1:1;14"Sa mula't mula pa ay may Verbo na, at ang Verbo ay sumasa Diyos, at ANG VERBO AY DIYOS!... At NAGKATAWANG-TAO ang VERBO at nakipamayan sa atin!"
Ang linaw-linaw ng sinasabi ng Biblia. NA SI CRISTO AY NASA ANYONG DIYOS at bagaman SIYA AY DIYOS ay piniling MAGKATAWANG-TAO (kaya't ang Diyos ay may anyo at may dugo!)
Isang KASINUNGALINGAN, PANDARAYA at PANLILINLANG ang sabihin ng mga kaanib ng Iglesia Ni Cristo® 1914 na itinuturo ng Biblia na HINDI Diyos si Cristo!
At ANONG KAPALARAN ng mga MANGANGARAL ng kasinungalingang ito? Sila raw ay ang mga ANTI-CRISTO o KALABAN NI CRISTO!
2 Juan 1:7"Sapagkat NAGKALAT sa daigdig ang MARAMING MANDARAYA na AYAW KUMILALA NA SI JESUCRISTO (DIYOS) AY NAGKATAWANG-TAO; ganyan nga ang mandaraya at ang ANTI-CRISTO!"
At sa darating na panahon, lahat ay TITINGALA sa LANGIT, pati ang mga kaanib ng INC™ 1914 na hindi kumikilala kay Cristo bilang Diyos na nagkatawang-tao; MAKIKITA nila si Cristo pati ang SUMUGAT SA KANYA.
At mula sa alapaap, magwiwika si JESUS na Diyos "Ako ang Alpa at ang Omega" wika ng Panginoong Diyos, na nabubuhay ngayon, noong una at paririto, ang Makapangyarihan sa lahat! (Pahayag 1:8)
At sa mga UMALIS sa TUNAY na IGLESIA NI CRISTO ~ ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA ~ halina at bumalik sa Kanya sapagkat sa Kanyang pagparito ay ang TUNAY na Iglesia ang Kanyang ililigtas, hindi ang peke!
"Tayo ay sumasa katotohanan, sa kanyang Anak na si Jesucristo. SIYA ANG DIYOS NA TUNAY AT BUHAY na walang haggan."(1 Juan 1:20)
