ITINUTURO NG IGLESIA KATOLIKA NA IISA ANG DIYOS! ITINUTURO NG INC™1914 NA TATLO ANG DIYOS!

GANYAN DIN ANG TURO TUNGKOL SA SANTISIMA TRINIDAD!

SINO NGAYON ANG NAGSASABING "TATLO" ANG DIYOS?!

Paulit-ulit. Nakakasawa.

Ito ang PAULIT-ULIT at NAKAKASAWANG argumento ng mga kaanib sa Iglesiang tatag ni Ginoong Felix Y. Manalo - ang Iglesia Ni Cristo® 1914 - sapagkat IPINAGPIPILITAN nilang TATLO raw ang DIYOS ng mga KATOLIKO?! At ito raw ang TURO ng IGLESIA KATOLIKA (TATLONG PERSONA ng DIYOS)?! Of course, hindi po totoo ito. Isang PANLILINLANG na naman para makadaya ng mga tao at aanib sa iglesiang tatag ni Ginoong Felix Y. Manalo.

Sabi ni kapatid na Anthony Aspe na kaanib sa INC™1914:

Iisa lamang ang bilang ng tunay na Dios ayon sa Biblia, siya lamang ang Ama ng ating Panginoong Jesucristo. Wala pong nakasulat sa Biblia na marami ang bilang ng tunay na Dios gaya sa paniniwala ng ADD/MCGI. Wala ring nakasulat na ang tunay na Dios ay binubuo ng tatlong persona o trinity gaya sa paniniwala ng Katoliko. Mas lalong walang naksulat na ang Ama ay persona o bahagi ng isang Dios na tunay. Ang mga ganitong paniniwala ay guni-guni lamang ng mga trinitarians at ng ADD/MCGI.

Sangguniin natin ang OPISYAL na TURO ng IGLESIA KATOLIKA §233:

"Christians are baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: not in their names, [Cf. Profession of faith of Pope Vigilius I (552): DS 415.] for there is only one God, the almighty Father, his only Son and the Holy Spirit: the Most Holy Trinity."

Sa TAGALOG ay ganito:

"Ang mga Kristiyano ay nabinyagan sa pangalan ng Ama at ng Anak at ng Banal na Espiritu: hindi sa kanilang mga pangalan, [Cf. Profession of Faith ni Papa Vigilius I (552): DS 415.] sapagkat iisa lamang ang Diyos, ang makapangyarihang Ama, ang kanyang nag-iisang Anak at ang Banal na Espiritu: ang Pinakabanal na Trinidad. "Ayon po, IISA LAMANG daw po ang DIYOS - ang AMA, ANAK at ang BANAL NA ESPIRITU."

Itinuturo po ng SIMBAHANG KATOLIKA mula pa noong UNA, tulad ng TURO ng mga ALAGAD na ang DIYOS ay IISA ~ ang AMA, ANAK at BANAL NA ESPIRITU.

SINASANG-AYUNAN rin ito ng PANGINOONG JESUS:

"THE FATHER AND I ARE ONE." The Jews again picked up rocks to stone him. Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from my Father. For which of these are you trying to stone me?” The Jews answered him, “WE ARE NOT STONING YOU FOR A GOOD WORK BUT FOR BLASPHEMY. YOU, A MAN, ARE MAKING YOURSELF GOD."

MALINAW na SINASABI ng PAGINOONG JESUS na SIYA at ang AMA ay IISA!

Ito ang dahilan kaya't ninais siyang PATAYIN ng mga HUDYO sapagkat si CRISTO (sa anyong TAO) ay GINAGAWANG KAPANTAY ang IISANG DIYOS.

"HINDI KA NAMIN NAIS NA BATUHIN DAHIL SA MABUBUTING GAWA KUNDI DAHIL SA PANG-AALIPUSTA SA DIYOS. IKAW, TAO, PINALALAGAY ANG SARILI BILANG DIYOS."

Malinaw na IISA ANG DIYOS kahit na ANGKININ ni CRISTO ang PAGIGING DIYOS, sapagkat SIYA at ang AMA ay IISA!

Hindi natin maaaring sisihin ang mga Hudyo sa kanilang paniniwala, sapagkat MALINAW NA MALINAW sa kanilang SHEMA ~ na IISA ANG PANGINOON, ANG DIYOS (Ama). Kaya sa PAG-AANGKIN ni Cristo na KAPANTAY NIYA ANG AMA, nangangahulugang DALAWA na ang Diyos na SIYANG TINUTUTULAN ng mga HUDYO! Bagay na KALAPASTANGANAN sa DIYOS. Christ deserves to die because of that blasphemy!

Heto nga ang MISMONG si APOSTOL SAN PABLO ang NAGSASABING SI CRISTO AY NASA ANYONG DIYOS (sa mga taga-FILIPOS 2:5-6):

"Taglayin ninyo ang pag-iisip na tulad ng kay CRISTO JESUS; kahit SIYA'Y NASA KALIKASAN NG DIYOS, ay hindi niya itinuring na isang bagay na dapat panghawakan ang pagiging kapantay ng Diyos..."

Dapat GANITO RIN ang TAGLAYIN ugali ni GINOONG FELIX MANALO, ang HUWAG IPANTAY ang SARILI sa pagiging SUGO ng Diyos sapagkat HINDI SIYA ISINUGO ng DIYOS! Ito ay PINAPATUNAYAN ng BIBLIA sapagkat WALANG FELIX Y. MANALO na NABABANGGIT at WALANG GANAP (TOTAL) NA PAGTALIKOD ng IGLESIANG TATAG ni CRISTO na NASUSULAT sa BIBLIA kundi ang TATALIKOD ay TAO, tulad ni GINOONG MANALO na DATING KAANIB ngunit TUMALIKOD at hanggang sa NAGTAYO ng KANYANG SARILING IGLESIA at pinarehistro bilang "Iglesia Ni Kristo" noong 1914.

PASUGO Agosto-Setyembre 1964, p. 5

“Kailan napatala sa Pamahalaan o narehistro ang INK sa Pilipinas? Noong Hulyo 27, 1914. Tunay nga na sinasabi sa rehistro na si Kapatid na F. Manalo ang nagtatag ng INK."

Anong sabi ni Apostol San Juan sa mga taong DATING KAANIB SA IGLESIANG TATAG NI CRISTO ngunit NGAYON AY LABAN SA ATIN ay GANITO:

1 JUAN 2:18-19

Munting mga anak, huling oras na! Tulad ng inyong narinig, ANG ANTI-CRISTO AY DARATING. At ngayon, marami na ngang anti-Cristo ang dumating. Kaya't alam natin na huling oras na. SILA AY HUMIWALAY SA ATIN, bagama't hindi naman talaga sila naging bahagi natin. Sapagkat kung sila'y naging bahagi natin, nanatili sana sila sa atin. Subalit ANG KANILANG PAG-ALIS AY NAGHAHAYAG LAMANG NA WALANG SINUMAN SA KANILA ANG KABILANG SA ATIN.

Ang PAG-ALIS ni Ginoong Felix Y. Manalo sa tunay na Iglesia ay NAGHAHAYAG lamang na LAHAT SILA sa KANYANG IGLESIA ay HINDI KABILANG kay CRISTO sapagkat NAGTUTURO sila ng LABAN KAY CRISTO!

MGA KAAWAY ni CRISTO o mga ANTI-CRISTO, ayon kay Apostol San JUAN!

At sa KATULAD nilang UMALIS sa TUNAY NA IGLESIANG TATAG NI CRISTO, AT NAGTUTURONG si CRISTO AY TAO LAMANG ~ HINDI MATANGGAP na si CRISTO ay DIYOS na NAPARITO sa LAMAN, ang tawag ni Apostol San Juan sa kanila ay mga ANTI-CRISTO o KAAWAY ni CRISTO.

2 JUAN 2:7

Sapagkat maraming mandaraya ang kumalat sa sanlibutan. HINDI NILA KINIKILALA NA DUMATING SI JESU-CRISTO [Diyos] BILANG TAO [naparito sa laman]. ANG MGA ITO ANG MANDARAYA AT ANG ANTI-CRISTO!

At sa mga KATULAD nilang ANTI-CRISTO, HINDI sila dapat PATULUYIN sa INYONG MGA TAHANAN, kundi ITUTURO nila ang kanilang ANTI-CRISTONG ARAL!

2 JUAN 1:10-11

Ang sinumang dumating sa inyo na hindi taglay ang katuruang ito ay huwag tanggapin sa inyong tahanan, at huwag din ninyo siyang batiin. Sapagkat ang tumatanggap sa taong ito ay nakikibahagi sa kanyang masasamang gawa.

ALIN nga ba ang TUNAY na IGLESIANG TATAG ni CRISTO na INALISAN ni Ginoong Manalo?

Ayon sa PASUGO, ang OPISYAL na magasin ng INC™1914, ang TUNAY na IGLESIA NI CRISTO raw ay ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA, hindi ang IGLESIANG TATAG niy!

PASUGO ABRIL 1966, p. 46:

“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo."

PASUGO JULY AUGUST 1988 p. 6.

“Even secular history shows a direct time link between the Catholic Church and the Apostles, leading to the conclusion that the true Church of Christ is the Catholic Church.”

PASUGO MARCH-APRIL 1992, p. 22

"The Church of Christ during the time of the Apostles became the Catholic Church of the bishops in the second century..."

PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 7:

“Ang tunay na Iglesia ni Cristo ay iisa lamang, ito ang Iglesiang itinayo ni Cristo. Kung mayroon mang nagsisibangon ngayong mga Iglesia at sasabihing sila man ay INK rin ang mga ito ay hindi tunay kundi huwad lamang!"

Sa mga NAGSUSURI, ito sana ay MAGSILBING ILAW sa inyo tungo sa KATOTOHANAN na IISA ANG DIYOS ~ AMA, ANAK at ESPIRITU SANTO ~ at si CRISTO ay DIYOS na NAPARITO SA LAMAN!

Dr. Daniel B. Wallace: Binanatan ang Iglesia Ni Cristo® 1914 sa Pambabaluktot sa kanyang sinabi

Salamat kay kapatid na Kuya CFD...

Dahil sa walang habas na Kasinungalingan ng mga ministro ng Iglesia Ni Manalo minsan na rin pala silang binanatan ni Dr. Daniel B. Wallace dahil sa paggamit ng INC sa kanyang aklat na "Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics" sa pambabaluktot ng katotohanan. Narito ang kanyang pahayag:

"The Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ) is a Filipino-based group that rejects the major tenets of the historical Christian faith. InC, in particular attempts to deny that the deity of Christ is a biblical doctrine. And although they view themselves as the only true church, they freely use several bona fide academic works to support their views -- in spite of the fact that the authors of such works would be appalled to learn of the abuse of their own writings. I was shocked to learn that InC members had used my Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics in support of their heterodox beliefs. Duane Cartujano, a Roman Catholic apologist, has investigated their views. He supplies plenty of documentation -- both quotations of the secondary literature and an exposition of the biblical text -- to refute the InC. I, for one, am glad that he has exposed this group for what it really is. His book will serve as a welcome corrective to the deceptions of the Iglesia ni Cristo. -Dr. Daniel B. Wallace, Author of Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics, Senior Professor of New Testament Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary

Maging ang salin ni George Lamsa na "Church of Christ" ay sasang-ayunan kaya ni Lamsa na ito ay ang Iglesia Ni Manalo kung sakaling nabubuhay pa siya? Malamang hindi! Kaya nga noong inilimbag ni Lamsa ang kanyang salin noong 1922 hanggang sa kanyang kamatayan ay hindi siya naimbetahan [sic] sa Iglesia Ni Manalo.

Ganun din ang Moffat bible na isinalin ni James Moffat na inilimbag noong 1924, sa kanyang salin na "far east" sasang-ayon kaya siya na ito ay propesiya para sa Pilipinas kung sakaling buhay pa siya??

:) Napakalaking advantage kapag buhay pa ang mga author kasi kapag ginamit sa KABULUKAN ang kanilang MASTERPIECE tiyak na mapapahiya itong mga MAPAGSAMANTALANG KABUTE (other term for 1800s and 1900s Man-Made churches).

Matapos ang debate, ang kasinungalingan ng mga kaanib ng INC™-1914, inilantad at sinagot ni Dr. James White

A Quick Refutation of an Internet Lie

By Dr. J. White

I was sent the attached graphic earlier today as I was going to preach on Philippians 2:5-11 at a local Southern Baptist Church here in Rapid City before returning home tomorrow to Phoenix. Here is the English translation that was provided to me:

"The proof that INC won the debate:

After the heated debate between Dr. James White and Joe Ventilacion of INC, Dr James White has made up his mind to study more on teachings and faith of the Iglesia ni Cristo. This is due to the fact that he has by himself witnessed that all the teachings of INC is plainly stated in the Bible.

No wonder that even if the debate was already over, James White, out of his curiosity, continues to ask questions to Joe Ventilacion, because it was his first time to hear these teachings from INC. Most importantly, Dr. White has concluded that there is no Trinity in the Bible and that there is only one God, the Father, which has to be known and worshipped by men."

The picture was taken by an INC member we had chatted with while waiting for Mr. Ventilacion to arrive for the 5pm Q&A session (which was very lightly attended). As I had other things to get to I went straight to JV and asked my question. If we need to, I can provide a full transcript and recording of the conversation. Here is what we discussed:

When I do debates, I attempt to accurately represent the other side by studying their primary source documents. Hence, when I debate Mormons, I have a very large LDS library from which to quote. Same with Jehovah's Witnesses. When I debate Islam, I quote from their primary source documents as well. And when someone wants to represent me fairly, they surely can do so, as my books are available for anyone to read, and the confessions of faith used by my church are public and readily available.

During our debate, JV said I was misrepresenting INC. But he also invited me to do a second debate (we discussed doing this in San Diego next year during this conversation). So I raised one main issue to him. There is a book I would like to obtain. It is titled _Fundamental Beliefs of the Iglesia Ni Christo_ by Eranio G. Manalo. It is their primary ministerial text. And it is secret. They do not allow public distribution of it. And so I was asking for a copy, as that would be the only way to accurately represent INC's positions in a debate. I was told it was only for ministers, and that I would be provided with articles from magazines, but not with the official publication that defines their beliefs. I pointed out that this secretive stance is not only problematic for people who claim to be Christians, but it makes it next to impossible to fairly debate INC. But I was not given the book.

JV and I exchanged numbers and email addresses so we can have contact regarding the possibility of a debate in San Diego (where he is moving). I wrote to JV earlier today to ask him to comment on this falsehood being spread through the Internet, but I have not received a response from him.

Now, the fact is, whoever posted this lie is engaging in CLASSIC cultic behavior. Such a person shows not the slightest concern for truth and is willing to fabricate falsehoods for the service of a false religious system. This is the very essence of the cultic mind.

Once again, everything in the article is an utter fabrication, a lie, *and we possess full documentation of every word spoken in the exchange by which we can prove this.* Only a person who feels a very strong need to do damage control would produce such a dishonest post. And that says a great deal.

By the way, anyone with any information on how we might obtain a copy of the above mentioned book, please contact Alpha and Omega Ministries with that information. We are surely willing to pay for any copy of this work. Thank you!

Magpapa-doctrinal na sa INC si Dr. James White pagkatapos ng debate nila ni Ventilacion ayon sa isang INC™?

Hindi lahat ng may abito ay paring Katoliko! Ang iba ay Peke!

"Paring" mula sa Philippine Ecumenical Christian Church ng Agusan del Sur ay tumiwalag at umanib sa iglesiang tatag ni Felix Manalo. Kaya't kaduda-duda ang suot ng "paring" sinasabi nilang atin sapagkat PULA (Red) ang kanyang ISTOLA at LUNTIAN (Green) naman ang suot na ALBA. Hindi po dekorasyon lamang ang kasuotan ng pari sa Iglesia Katolika kundi ito ay Liturgical meaning.  Libre ang KUMOPYA ngunit siguraduhin lamang na tama ang pagkopya. Hindi porke't nakasuot ng ISTOLA o SUTANA ay paring Katoliko na. Gayon din naman, hindi porke't "Iglesia Ni Cristo" ang registered name eh ito na ang original na iglesiang tatag ni Cristo.

Sumatotal, ang PEKE ay PEKE kahit anong anyo o anong katawagan pa nito.

PINALAKPAKAN ANG ISANG SINUNGALING!

LIES…CAMERA…ACTION! By Antonio Ebangelista

In a series of unprecedented ridiculous Guinness World Records and other superficial money-induced achievements of the One-With-EVM Church, its Church Administration, Council Ministers, and District Ministers, have now all begun to drink the deadly OWEE Kool-Aid 

(http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=drink%20the%20kool-aid). So one by one, they start to tell the lie that everybody has been telling…until EVERYBODY believes it to be TRUE and when I say everybody, I am ofcourse referring to the brethren who are either blindly One With EVM or just plainly, in denial. But what these people fail to grasp is the fact that the TRUTH will always be the TRUTH no matter how much you cover it up with lies.

And when S**t hits the fan… this is what it looks like.

Bravo!!!!! Bravo!!!!!

This is now what the Iglesia Ni Cristo holy gathering (Pamamahayag ng Salita ng Diyos) has been reduced to.. CULTISH THEATRICS! Sooner or later they will be no different from the faith healers and body-shaking, epileptic-seizure-ridden, body-collapsing stage shows, that we see on TV. Why? Because the OWEE Ministers have to outdo themselves every time they “stage” a milestone achievement to bedazzle the unsuspecting brethren who are still hoping that the Church Administration is still inspired by the Holy Spirit. Since this Church Administration is no longer guided by God, the only thing they can do is to “simulate” or “fabricate” the HSE (Holy Spirit Effect). Unfortunately for them, those who have been truly enlightened by the Holy Spirit during the pristine years of the church (FYM and EGM Years), know exactly the difference.

But wait, “It looks so convincing…”. Just look at him… wouldn’t you believe him and follow “suit”?

But how exactly did they stage this “miraculous transformation” of the so-called Orthodox Priest, John Ngalon Collado. According to the OWEE Ministers, it was because he was inspired by the preaching of Bro. Glicerio “Jun” Santos Jr., the dubiously notorious General Auditor of the INC. So they went on with the show, allowed this “fake” Orthodox Priest to step on “the holiest of the holy ground“, the TRIBUNA, a place designated for the holy function of delivering the divine words of God, and THEY BLATANTLY DESECRATED IT by allowing an impostor to enter and proclaim LIES for the crowd to swallow with cheer and applause. What used to be holy grounds for the church, is now a commonplace for crooks and liars. Do you even remember how we used to regard the TRIBUNA with so much respect and reverence that not just ANYONE can step foot on it? But I guess, with the One With EVM Era (OWEE), a lot of things, really do change, even the doctrines and church procedures and disregarding the sanctity and holiness of the church. And thanks to Bro. Glicerio “Jun” Santos Jr., the INC under the administration of Bro. Eduardo V. Manalo, has once again sunk to a whole new LOW, something worthy for a new Guinness World Records.

Unfortunately, as much as the brethren would like to believe in the “Jun Santos” Miracle, all false things must come to an end, in this case, A VERY HUMILIATING AND EMBARRASSING END.

This is the Official Statement of the Philippine Orthodox Church

OFFICIAL STATEMENT REGARDING MR. JOHN COLLADO

On September 25, 2016, during the Philippine sect “Iglesia Ni Cristo”’s event in Lagao Gymnasium, in General Santos City, they are boosting that infront of their 50, 000 members, a priest of the Orthodox Church in the person of JOHN NGALON COLLADO take off his priestly vestment and converted to their sect. The video, photos and statements were attached on their post on social media. To shed light on this, we would like to correct the false claim of the Iglesia ni Cristo sect as well as the crime commited by Mr. Collado by declaring the following FACTS:

1.) MR. JOHN COLLADO IS NOT (AND NEVER HAS BEEN) AN ORTHODOX PRIEST

2.) MR. JOHN COLLADO HAS NOT BEEN ORDAINED EVEN IN THE LOWEST RANK WHICH IS AN ORTHODOX READER

3.) MR. JOHN COLLADO IS A FORMER PRIEST OF THE PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENT CATHOLIC CHURCH (PICC) ALSO KNOWN AS AGLIPAYAN CHURCH WHO GO ON SCHISM FROM PICC TOGETHER WITH OTHER AGLIPAYAN PRIESTS AND CREATED THE INDEPENDENT CATHOLIC CHURCH OF MINDANAO (ICCM).

4.) MR. JOHN COLLADO TOGETHER WITH OTHER ICCM CLERGIES CONVERTED VOLUNTARILY THEMSELVES TO THE ORTHODOX CHURCH (MOSCOW PATRIARCHATE) AND WE KNOW HIM ONLY FOR 2 1/2 YEARS.

5.) HE FORFEITED HIS AGLIPAYAN PRIESTHOOD IN AUGUST 2015 AND WAS BAPTIZED AS AN ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN AND BECAME AN ORTHODOX LAYMAN.

6.) SINCE HE IS A NEW CONVERT, WHOSE EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND IS ONLY A HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATE (WHICH IS ALLOWED IN AGLIPAYANISM FOR ORDINATION), AND HE NEVER ENTER INTO A PROPER SEMINARY EVEN IN HIS AGLIPAYAN TIMES, AND UPON CONSIDERATION OF THE NATURE OF HIS UNSTABLE CHARACTER, HE IS NOT EVEN AMONG OF THOSE CANDIDATES FOR ORTHODOX PRIESTHOOD.

7.) HIS STATEMENTS THAT HE NOW FORFEITS HIS ORTHODOX PRIESTHOOD ARE FRAUDULENT. HE IS MISLEADING THE PUBLIC BY LYING PUBLICLY AND HAS COMMITTED A CRIME OF MISREPRESENTATION AGAINST THE ORTHODOX CHURCH.

8.) THE VESTMENT WHICH HE IS WEARING AND TAKEN OFF AS SHOWN IN THE VIDEO IS NOT A VESTMENT OF AN ORTHODOX PRIEST BUT OF A CATHOLIC ONE AS COPIED BY THE AGLIPAYANS.

9.) THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH MISSION IN THE PHILIPPINES TO WHICH MR. COLLADO HAS BELONGED, IS ONLY MORE THAN TWO YEARS SINCE WE STARTED OUR MISSION AND WERE NOT ORDAINING YET NOT EVEN A SINGLE FILIPINO ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN TO ANY RANKS OF PRIESTHOOD AND HAVE NO PRIEST YET AS OF THIS TIME IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Having said the above facts, we reproach the leaders and members of the so called “Iglesia Ni Cristo” for spreading lies publicly WITHOUT verifying first the background of Mr. Collado. This only proves that this sect is IRRESPONSIBLE and NOT preaching the Truth as they even unable to do a background check to verify the claims of Mr. Collado, OR knowlingly facilitates the fradulent activity. We know the “Iglesia Ni Cristo” has a capacity to do verifications or background checks as they have members who work in many government agencies, yet they opt to just spread lies on their evangelism activities, a proof that their “evangelization” is accompanied with LIES.

We are calling all people of goodwill, including public media and government authorities not to be mislead by the lies propagated by Mr. Collado, and to refrain from further publicizing these lies.

To all Orthodox Christians, let us pray for Mr. Collado’s soul and for his repentance.
