"The Christianity of history is not Protestantism. If ever there were a safe truth it is this, and Protestantism has ever felt it so; to be deep in history is to cease to be a Protestant." (-John Henry Newman, An Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine).

"Where the bishop is, there let the people gather; just as where ever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church". -St. Ignatius of Antioch (ca 110 AD)a martyr later thrown to the lions, wrote to a church in Asia Minor. Antioch was also where the term "Christian" was first used.

“But if I should be delayed, you should know how to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of truth.” 1 Timothy 3:15

"This is the sole Church of Christ, which in the Creed we profess to be one, holy, catholic and apostolic." -CCC 811

Iglesia Ni Cristo Lies and Deceit

All Christian Catholics and non-Catholics who love Jesus the Lord, you have a mission to challenge the errors of the Iglesia ni Cristo’s modern revival of a schism by Nestorius that had been refuted since 431 A.D. by Council of Efesus and the Council of Constantinople II by reviving Jesus’ humanity and worst, denying his divinity when in fact nothing was written in the Bible disproving his divinity.

Every Christian should be aware of how INC ministers are deceiving people to believe in their repeated lies made true by their Bible references as if the Holy Scripture was specifically addressed to them to go with their convenience raising Felix Manalo as an angel and dethroning Jesus to a mere human state rejecting him as God and accepting the more obvious lie about Felix Manalo’s “angelic” status. When it hurts them too deep they twist the Bible.

Every Saturday 8 o’clock in the morning. If you are in the Philippines, turn on your TV and switch your channel to ABS-CBN local channel (Channel 2) and wait for the Iglesia Ni Cristo’s program with Ka Bularan as its usual anchor and another side-kick whose task is to pretend ask ignorant questions (so basic and elementary) attacking Catholic doctrines and local customs and practices. In response, Ka Bularan would give his most intelligent answer without any hint of a sound Theological background from the mainstream Protestant Theology so normally you expect a nonsense explanation from him. Like the rest our separated brethren, they need to back up their claims with Biblical passages to make it appear that what they teaches are authoritative according the Holy Scripture. But is it true? The only purpose? They need to confuse more confused Catholics and once they’re confused, they would turn away from anything “Catholic” and be die-hard defenders of the “church” which Ka Felix Manalo, a self proclaimed “angel” and the founder of the Iglesia ni Cristo in the Philippines in 1914, incorporated it, registered it under the laws of the Republic of the Philippines; a corporation owned and managed by the Manalo clan.

They’re fakes anyway!
Here’s a proof that Catholic practices and teachers are deeply biblical:

  1. The Holy Mass is a commemoration of Christ’s Paschal Supper written in Mat. 26:26-29; Mark 14:22-27; Luke 22:19-22; 1 Cor. 11:23-34. Supplementary Readings from David MacDonald and Wikipedia

  2. Divinity of Christ: This topic plays a significant role in the whole history of Christianity convened a Church council in 325 A.D. and the formulation of the Nicene Creed. The obvious Biblical passage we can extract from the Holy Scripture is in John 1:1-- where it was stated that “[I]n the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God…”
This simple Biblical equation of Logos [Read Here] was made complicated by Manalo’s followers and those complicated ones such as in Isaiah he made it simple. That’s the old tactic false angels would quote to suit his self-proclamation as something ‘biblical’. You can be friend and subscribe to someone whose blog is solely dedicated to this topic at Logos Made Flesh or Wikipedia’s article on Cristology or better consult help from Wikipedia or Google, that’s what the website was created for.

The simple made complicated doctrines of the INC, here’s a good site created in a PowerPoint style presentation, the complications are made simple and easy to understand [Read The Church that Manalo Built”], it will help you realize their serious ignorance of the Bible and the Church. Hopefully this will help you decide to leave this church at once by God’s grace.

Some, if not all of Catholic doctrines, this bogus claimant to be Christ’s true church either accuse the Church of festival with pagan origin like Christmas or propagating a lie that Purgatory is an “unbiblical” teachings invented by the Catholic Church without pointing any historical fact to prove when it was invented [Read 2 Macc. 12:43-45]. Without reference to other monotheistic religions, in Judaism, Gehenna is a place where souls are being purified and according to some of Jewish traditions, those who died with sin must spend up to a year before they can be released from purgation at Gehenna. While in Islam some Muslims consider hell as temporary state of punishment and eternal damnation for others.

They simply cannot get out of the Catholic Church when they want to prove their teachings. Without the true Church, they cannot hinge any of their teachings to truth, worst they cannot prove what they stand for beyond any doubt. In other words, their teachings cannot exist independently from the more sound teachings of Christ’s true church, the Catholic Church.

Felix Manalo really lied wasn’t he? Watch this YouTube Video, a sample of their intelligence:
Turning the table in opposition to their claims, Christ’s TRUE CHURCH never apostatized. Christ promised that in Mt. 16:16-19 clearly spelled out by Christ as the founder of his Church that “the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it…” [‘shall’ according to Webster is used to express a command or exortation, which is inevitable or seems likely to happen in the future]. This means that Christ’s true Church would STAND from that day on to the next millennium as he promised.

If INC founder and members taught a false teaching of “Total Apostasy” that no historical fact could back up their claims, worst no Bible verse to make us believe it’s true. Should you believe with their lies, it’s implied that they are teaching CHRIST AS A LIAR in Matthew 16. And if Christ NEVER LIED, then definitely Manalo WAS!

In fact their Official Magazine PASUGO published its confirmation that the Catholic Church was the TRUE CHURCH Christ built, PASUGO April 1966, p. 46:
“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni
Cristo." (The Catholic Church even from the beginning was the Church of Christ)
[Read more of these at The Truth About the Iglesia ni Cristo published by Divine Word Publication]

What about their angel? According to trustworthy sources from the internet, Felix Manalo’s church originated in the Philippines written in the pages of its history, on July 27, 1914; OFFICIALLY registered as a Corporation Sole with Felix Manalo as the Executive Minister [Read Iglesia ni Cristo], whose sole rights belongs to him as its Founder [Read Here].

Since Felix death April 12, 1963, his son Eraño took over its overseer, a normal procedure to family owned corporations or in monarchial form churches, next in line is Erano Manalo.

Also in wikipedia’s Timeline of Christian Missions, the INC of Felix Manalo was never mentioned, a damaging truth about the Church supposedly built by Christ through it’s last Sugo, Felix Manalo.

Here’s the INC Monarchial Line:

Felix Manalo INC Founder, a self-proclaimed ‘Last Sugo’

Erano G. Manalo, INC current Executive Minister, the 5th child of Felix Manalo and Honorata De Guzman. His name comes from what he felt was a “New Christian Era” of which the New Era University was built upon.

Eduardo V. Manalo, is the current Deputy Executive Minister, a grandson of Felix Manalo and is the son of the current Executive Minister Erano G. Manalo.
Christ has nothing to do with their family glorification through their family owned corporation! You must have opened your eyes now and leave the cult at once, with the grace of God!

Verbatim I copied these Fundamental Beliefs of the Iglesia ni Cristo from Answers.com a summary of a book by Eraño G. Manalo, INC’s current Executive Minister, a fifth child of Felix Y. Manalo. Under "Fact" are my attempts to refute their lies.

According to Minister Manalo,

(1). The words of God are written only in the Bible. The Bible should be the only basis of service to God. This is the truth which will teach man salvation from punishment on Judgment Day.

[Fact: The Catholic Church’s authority made the list of the Bible complete to its present form. The same authority is considering the Iglesia ni Cristo as hoax.]

The Bible & the Catholic Church
First the Church then the NT
Few Facts about the Bible

(2). The Father who created all things is the only true God. There is no Trinity, no three persons in one God.

[Fact: Iglesia ni Cristo ministers can’t explain why they’re using the “Trinitarian Formula” during baptismal rites by immersion] Read more at NewAdvent.org under ‘Form’.

(3). The belief that all churches belong to God is false. Christ founded only one true Church - the Church of Christ (Iglesia ni Cristo).

[Fact: PASUGO April 1966, p. 46:
“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo." ]

(4). The Church of Christ is the Church that Jesus will save (Acts 20:28 Lamsa) because he made this Church His body and heads it Himself - before God, the Church and Christ are one new man (Eph.2:15 NKJV; Col.1:18 NKJV). This is the reason why Christ is able to answer for the sins of His Church without violating God's law that whoever commits a sin, the same must die for that sin (Dt.24:16). Hence, the belief that salvation can be attained by means of faith in Christ alone, even without membership in the Church of Christ is false. The Church is necessary, not because it saves, but because it is the entity that Christ will save (Eph.5:23 TEV).

[Fact1: PASUGO April 1966, p. 46:
“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo." Therefore the Catholic Church which they recognize as the true Church, Christ will save it according to Eph. 5:23.

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." (When was INC in the Philippines registered under its Government? It was in July 27, 1914. Truly, the registry confirms Brother F. Manalo as the founder of INC.”)

PASUGO Mayo 1952, p. 4
“Kung ang babalingan ng pag-uusapan ay ang nagtatag, dapat na siya ang may-ari ng itinatag, at sa kanya rin manggagaling ang mga aral at turo na ipinatutupad." (If our focus of discussion is who’s the founder, he should own what he’s founded, and authorized teachings should come from him.”)

PASUGO Nobyembre 1940, p. 23:
“Iisa lamang ang tanging makapagtatayo ng Iglesiang magiging dapat sa Dios. Kung sino? -- Ang ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo lamang! Sinumang tao-- maging marunong o mangmang-- ay walang karapatang magtayo..." (There’s only one who has the authority to build a Church worthy to be God’s. Only the Lord Jesus Christ! No human being, whether wise or fool—has no authority to build…”)

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!" (The true Church of Christ is one only, this is the Church built by Christ. Any church emerging, claiming they too are Church of Christ, these are false and fake!”)

(5). The Church built by Christ during the first century has apostatized (Acts 20:29). It was led away by false prophets which arose in the Church after the time of the Apostles (Mt.24:11 RSV), and those who remained firm in the faith were slain by ravenous wolves (Mt.7:15). The prophesied false teachers who led the Church away were the Catholic priests. They introduced false teachings (1 Tim.4:1,3) into the Church, until the Church became the Catholic Church - a church essentially different from the Church of Christ as described in the Bible.

[Fact: No historical proof. No Biblical verses to prove it! The more than 2,000 years of Christianity and Catholicsm, none can point out total apostasy.]

(6). The apostasy of the Catholic Church from the Church established by Christ in the first century took place with their turning away from the teachings of God taught by Christ and His Apostles (Worship of Images, Mass, Popes and Priests as vicars or successors of Christ, Mediator Saints, Purgatory). Therefore, the apostasy takes place whenever there is a teaching of God the Catholic Church violates. In view of this, all the doctrines and practices of the Catholic Church should be rejected.

[Fact: Felix Manalo can’t accommodate himself with Catholic doctrines. He cannot simply submit himself to its authority so instead he defied and deified himself to a status higher than Christ as mere man and build his own. But fact remains, INC is fake!]

(7). We should not be surprised at the number of churches today that are not of Christ. It is not Christ who established them but the enemy or the devil (Mt.13:24-30,36-39 NKJV). These churches that do not belong to Christ are the Catholic Church and her offspring, the various Protestant denominations and sects. Only one Church belongs to Christ, the Church of Christ.
[Fact: PASUGO April 1966, p. 46:
“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo."

PASUGO Mayo 1961, p. 4,
“At sino nga ba ang gumagawa ng mga leksiong itinuturo ng mga ministro, maging sa mga pagsamba, mga doktrina o mga Propaganda? Ang Kapatid na Felix Manalo". (And who’s behind the formulation of lessons to be taught by ministers, even to worship, doctrines or propaganda? It’s Brother Felix Manalo.”)

PASUGO Mayo 1963, p. 27:
Kaya't sa katuparan ng hula, ang lahat ng mga itinuturo ng mga Ministro ng INK sa mga pagsamba, sa mga doktrina, sa mga pamamahayag sa gitna ng bayan, ay si Kapatid na Felix Manalo lamang ang bumabalangkas at at nagtuturo sa kanila." (As a fulfillment of the prophesy, all the teachings taught by the Ministers of INK in worship, doctrines, and preaching in towns, only Brother Felix Manalo is drafting and teaching them.)

(8). Many Protestant groups uphold the belief that faith alone in Christ is sufficient for salvation. They have excluded other conditions such as baptism (Mt.16:15-16), church membership (Jn.10:9,Acts 2:47, 20:28 Lamsa), suffering for Christ's sake (Phil.1:29), works (Js.2:14,17,20), preaching by the messenger of God (Acts 16:32-33), remaining in the true church (Jn.15:5-6), holding firm and obeying the Gospel (1 Cor.15:1-2 NIV) and enduring and remaining until the end (Mt.24:13). Their faith-alone concept of salvation is in direct conflict with the Bible where we can find pronouncements that man is not justified by faith only (Js.2:24).

[Fact: Equally the INC is in direct contradiction with the Holy Scripture. Remember Satan quoted the Holy Scripture to suit his own vile. What do you think of the INC quoting the Bible?]
(9). One should not deny the necessity of one organized church as the Church of Christ.

[Fact: PASUGO April 1966, p. 46:
“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo." (The Catholic Church which from the very beginning was the Church of Christ..)

(10). The Church of Christ which emerged in the Philippines in these last days was established by virtue of the fulfillment of the prophecies of God (Isa.43:5 Moffatt) and of Christ (Jn.10:16;Acts 20:28 Lamsa). This is the third group (Acts 2:39) of people in the Church established by Christ. Even the spread of this Church in the Far West (Isa.43:4-6;59:19 NKJV) is a fulfillment of God's prophecy written in the Bible.

[Fact: Biblical Prophesies indeed has taken its fulfillment!

Mt. 16:18 “…[T]he gates of hell will NEVER prevail against [Church of Christ] it…”
Mk. 13:3-8 “…Jesus began to say to [apostles], "See that no one deceives you”.Lk. 21:7-11 “See that you not be deceived, for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he,' and 'The time has come.' Do not follow them!”Mt. 7:15-23 “By their fruits you will know them.”Mt. 24:11 “Many false prophets will arise and deceive many.”2 pt. 1-3 2 Pt. 2:1-3 “There were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will introduce destructive heresies and even deny the Master who ransomed them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their licentious ways, and because of them the way of truth will be reviled. In their greed they will exploit you with fabrications, but from of old their condemnation has not been idle and their destruction does not sleep.”
1 Jn. 4:1-3 “Beloved, do not trust every spirit but test the spirits to see whether they belong to God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.”Gal. 1:8-9 “But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach (to you) a gospel other than the one that we preached to you, let that one be accursed! As we have said before, and now I say again, if anyone preaches to you a gospel other than the one that you received, let that one be accursed!”

(11). The messenger of God (Rom.10:15 NKJV) in these last days (Isa.43:6) is Brother Felix Y. Manalo (Rev.7:2-3). It was not he who built the Church of Christ but it was Christ Himself (Mt.16:18) by virtue of the fulfillment of the prophesy (Jn.10:16). Felix Manalo was only utilized by God as His instrument to preach the pure Gospel of salvation in these last days. His authority as God's messenger is clearly stated by various prophecies in Scriptures (Is.41:9-10; Is.46:11-13; Rev.7:2-3). Hence, it behooves man to have faith in the commissioning of Brother Felix Y. Manalo.

[Fact: 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." (When was INC in the Philippines registered under its Government? It was in July 27, 1914. Truly, the registry confirms Brother F. Manalo as the founder of INC.”)

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!" (The true Church of Christ is one only, this is the Church built by Christ. Any church emerging, claiming they too are Church of Christ, these are false and fake!”)

(12). Persecutions cannot be avoided because overcoming it serves as the basis for inheriting the kingdom of heaven (Mt.5:10-12). Thus, whatever kind or extent of persecution a member of the Church of Christ may face, he should not falter or withdraw. He should instead pray to God for assistance in order to overcome religious persecutions.

[Fact: INC are the persecutors! Ask for a copy of their official “Pandoktrina Lessons”, watch their preaching on TV, radio and print like in PASUGO Disyembre 1965, p. 5:
“Kaninong Ministro kung ganyan ang mga Paring Katoliko? Mga Ministro ni
Satanas na Diablo."
(Whose Ministers therefore are the Catholic Priests? They are the Ministers of Satan the Evil One.”)

PASUGO Oktubre 1959, p. 5:
“Mga magdaraya at anti-Cristo, ang mga nagtuturong si Cristo ay Dios." (They are deceivers and anti-Christ all those who teaches Christ as God.”)

PASUGO Agosto 1962, p. 9:
“Kaya ang tunay na anti-Cristo, ang mga Papa ng Iglesia Katolika Apostolika Romana. At ang tunay na ampon ng anti-Cristo ay ang mga Katoliko." (Therefore, the true anti-Christ, the Popes of the Apostolic Roman Catholic Church. And the true adopted anti-Christ are the Catholics!)

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." (The Iglesia ni Cristo held its preaching in the City of Davao. There, Brother Felix Manalo and his companion Ministers preached. They made the statement that the Roman Catholic Church wasn’t the Church Christ’s built but the Devil’s.”)

(13). The proper way of joining the Church of Christ is that which is done because of faith (Rom.5:2) in God and in Christ (Jn.14:1-2), as well as the recognition and acceptance of the Church and of God's commissioning of His messenger in these last days (Jn.6:29). If the motive for joining the Church of Christ is pure and proper, the man who joins the Church would be able to perform all the commandments and Church disciplines, the performance of which proves that he is a true member of the Church of Christ. He does not easily discouraged and neither does he drew back. Instead, he remains firm in his election.

[Fact: Manalo isn’t original in this teaching. Christ himself sternly warned his disciples of coming false prophets disguishing as prophets or angels. Instead, he promised to remain with them until the ends of time and his Church will never aposticize— Christ’s warning fulfilled in Manalo and His teachings Manalo turned them upside down.]

(14). Christ should be highly honored and worshiped by members of the Church of Christ because this is the will of God (Phil.2:9-11). Christ should be recognized as the Son of God (Mt.3:7), Lord (Acts 2:36), Saviour (Acts 5:31), Mediator (1Tim.2:5), a holy man who did not commit sin (1 Pet.2:21-22). The attributes mentioned here give no indication to His nature which we believe is of a man (Jn.8:40); He is not the true God. (Ezek.28:2) Man should also renounce the belief that Christ is true God and true man (Hos.11:9)

[Fact: Christ is God according to the Holy Scripture. No Biblical verse that says He is NOT God! Manalo and his Ministers cannot even provide one single verse to disprove his divinity. All they use are verses that confirms him as man but does doesn’t negate his divinity at all. As warning, all men and women should also renounce the belief that Manalo is a man and an angel which is biblically unfounded. Fact also remains that only God has the right to be worshipped and if the INC are worshipping Christ as a man ONLY, they are guilty of blasphemy.]

(15). The clear distinctions of Christ from God are proofs that the true God is not Christ. Jesus possesses attributes surpassing the ordinary man, but this does not mean that he is God. God has attributes which we do not find in Christ. If Christ can do wonders such as miracles, all these are done by God, through Him as God's instrument. On his own powers alone, Christ cannot do anything. Christ Himself states, "I can of my own do nothing."

[Fact: Jesus said, ‘Before Abraham came to be, I AM.” -Jn. 8:58 of which the Jews understood him exactly. That’s why they accused him of blasphemy of calling himself the title exclusively for God. Did Christ recanted to their aproar? No! For he is God! ]

(16). Teachers of the "Christ is God" doctrine also use the Bible. But we should not allow ourselves to be deceived by them because we cannot read any text in the Bible where Christ says He is the true God. If that is the case, why do they have biblical texts to prove their contentions? Those biblical texts have been given erroneous interpretations (Jn.1:1,14; Isa.9:6) or wrong meanings (1 Jn.5:20) or even based on verses wrongly translated (Rom.9:5).

[Fact: It is more true that the Bible is silent about their claim that Christ IS NOT God. The Church with no one to claim it’s founder except Christ is accused b a self-problaimed man, ‘Last Messenger’ of “erroneous interpretation (Jn. 1;1,14) when he himself had interpreted the whole Scripture to praise himself!]

(17). It is not enough for man to join or become a member of the Church of Christ to be saved. He should lead a new life, too. Members who lead a new life are truly of Christ and of God. Thus, all sinful ways should be renounced and he should live by the teachings he has received.

[Fact: To this day, none of INC members has received Noble Peace Prize or has achieved any international recognition of such a good life emulating the Lord. Not even Felix Manalo has done miracles to prove his divine origin during his lifetime.

Felix Manalo’s life isn’t extra ordinary, not even considered ‘holy’ life. His way of life was far enough to compare to the lives of Catholic Saints (including the apostles and Christ).
Felix Manalo’s lifestyle and biography is made available through Let Us Reason and a thorough detail is mentioned in Wikipedia-Felix Manalo.

An attempt to make Felix Manalo a “saint” Truth Finder tried to make his story humble and persuasive but it was just too good to be true, biased and unconfirmed since the INC management has no official website to this day.]

(18). Each member of the Church of Christ believes that constant attendance in worship services is one of his obligations. Great blessings accrue to those who constantly attend worship services while great sins are committed by those who disregard this responsibility.

[Fact: INC sense of sin depends on Church attendance for economic reasons. Abortion, adultery, murder, as heinous crime were not even mentioned. Felix was one of those firstly to be chastised for being adulterer and a rapist. Rosita Trillanes was just one among his victims.]

(19). The Church of Christ believes that it is God who gave the command to contribute and give thanksgiving offerings to support the needs of the Church. To fulfill these obligations is to lay up a good foundation for the attainment of eternal life.

[Fact: God has nothing to do with Manalo’s Church. If there’s anything its members donate, it’s for the Manalo clan, stipulated in their registration as a Corporation Sole at Securities and Exchange Commission.]

(20.) The Church of Christ believes that it is the will of God for us to love one another as true brothers and sisters. Hence, if anyone has sinned against us, we should forgive him and we should reconcile with those who are mad at us.

[Fact: They forgive their own members but not members of the Catholic Church. Fierce battle between INC and members of ADD prove otherwise.]

(21). The members of the Church of Christ believe that it is God who forbids the eating of blood and prohibits marriage with those of other faiths. Elopement is an act of disrespect for parents and this is a sin in the eyes of God.

[Fact: INC as owned by Felix Manalo has the least authority to tell anyone of what’s moral and immoral. Felix Manalo himself wasn’t even a moral and upright man to be emulated.]

(22). The Church of Christ believes that baptism is necessary for one to become a disciple of Christ and for the attainment of eternal salvation. But this should be done in accordance with the teachings of the Bible.

[Fact: They cannot assume the autority of the Bible without acknowledging the authoritative body that formulated the Bible. With regard to Baptism as necessary means to “become a disciple of Christ and for the attainment of eternal salvation” Manalo was never baptized in his founded Church thus reducing his rights to be in paradise. If not, then he must be in eternal damnation.]

(24). The Church of Christ believes that each member should do missionary work or share his faith with others. Each one should learn how to pray to God so that he would not weaken in faith and thus be able to resist temptations.

[Fact: The true Church of Christ in the Catechism of the Catholic Church has a thorough explanation about its faith, made available in print and in the web which INC not even have published “Pandoktrina” or a website to spread their “true” church which is contrary to common sense.]

(25). Each member should submit to the Administration placed by God in the Church by means of total agreement with the teachings and rules observed in the Church of Christ.

[Fact: INC Administration headed by the son of Felix Manalo down to the third generation clearly proves its ownership. God and Christ has nothing to do with the Iglesia ni Cristo so its members are not subjected to submit to its Manalo administration rather to submit themselves in obedience to the Magisterium of the true Church founded by Christ as they admitted in their Pasugo.]

(26). The Church of Christ believes that unity is God's teaching and that division within the Church is an evil thing. This unity is implemented by the Church of Christ not only during election time but also in all its works in the service of God.

[Fact: They have condemned themselves. Felix Manalo detached himself from the real Church Pasugo had claimed to be the Catholic Church. And if those who caused division among the Church’s members are evil according to them.]

(27). The Church of Christ believes that God has determined the Day of Judgment which will take place at the second coming of Christ. This is the great day when the Church of Christ will receive the reward promised by God -- the everlasting home for God's chosen people.

[Fact: As earlier stated by Pasugo, the real Church Christ built was the Catholic Church and that this Church will “receive the reward promised by God – the everlasting home for God’s chosen people.]

By now, you are ready to leave Manalo's Corporation disguishing as God's church!
