"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

Hallucination: The "True Church" is back in Rome?!


QUESTIONS:
  1. Did the TRUE CHURCH LEAVE Rome? Since when?
  2. Was Eraño's visit to Rome means he is the "legitimate" representative of the "true church" the Iglesia ni Cristo®?
  3. Who commissioned Eraño Manalo?
  4. When Eraño was in Rome, was his presence felt? If not then why he's in Rome? Proclaiming nothing?
  5. When Eraño was in Rome, did he "proclaim" his Manalo's version of the "true church" against the Catholic Church which they said has "apostatized completely"? 
  6. Was he brave enough to proclaim boldly the "true Church" among the Romans just like Catholic Missionaries around the world emulating St. Peter (the first Pope) and other apostles BOLDLY proclaiming Jesus amidst threat of persecution? 
  7. Did Eraño have that "pentecostal" experience of "FEARLESS COURAGE" which may lead him to "Christian martyrdom"?
  8. Did Eraño feared "persecution" that his presence in Rome to "bring back" the "true Church" was NOT EVEN FELT?
  9. If he had "boldly proclaimed" the Manalo Church, had anyone believed his father's corporation is the "true Church" to be 'back" and to be "re-established" in Rome?
  10. Did Eraño meet the "anti-Christ" residing in the Vatican and proclaim himself as the "true" representation of God to "re-establish" the "true Church" right in the heart of Rome?
  11. If the "true Church" was indeed "back in Rome" where was  it established?  What's its name? Was it in TAGALOG "Iglesia ni Cristo"® signifying its humble beginnings in Punta SANTA ANA, in Manila and is now in ka-DILIMAN Quezon City? Or was it in Italian? Or Latin? or English "Church of Christ"® WITHOUT those words "Iglesia ni Cristo"® (or the other way around) carefully translated in parenthesis?


ANSWERS:
  1. The CHURCH NEVER left Rome! It was THERE before and IS STILL THERE today! History proves that! And the HUGE ARTIFACTS will speak of that FACT!
  2. Manalo's visit to Rome is for INCorporated 1914 All Rights Reserved Church a significant milestone.  For them his presence signifies the "true Church" of Manalo  now replacing the Catholic Church.  Of course, everyone is entitled for his own opinion.  They are FREE to DREAM! 
  3. No one mandated Eraño! Only his father and the laws of the republic.  The INC is a corporation sole owned and managed by the Manalo, it's logical that any of the Manalo's will be in-charge. All other companies in the Philippines is protected by that law!
  4. He knew Eraño was in Rome except the few fanatic cult members. Seeing him in person makes others in hysteria.  He's their "little pope" without ecclesiastical authority over anyone except the INCorporated 1914 All Rights Reserved Church of Manalo. Eraño was in Rome for inauguration of their "locale" there.  His audience? None but 99.9% Filipinos! 
  5. Eraño proclaimed the "true Church" in pure TAGALOG! He knows no Italian! Much more with ancient languages of the Bible. Surely he is AT LOST when it speaking to Greek, Hebrew or Latin. INCorporated 1914 All Rights Reserved Church of Manalo is a FILIPINO founded CHURCH (but not my church!)
  6. The Holy Spirit didn't descend on him. 
  7. Eraño was never seen in public debates nor he has spoken openly on major issues both local and international.  His concern only is to look after his father's flock the Inc. members!
  8. Eraño NEVER experienced the hardships of being "persecuted" except the fact that his father claimed to be the "Last Mesenger" or an "angel" from the East. Never he have gone a missionary life, NOT EVEN his own ministers were sent to jungles and pagan countries to proclaim God.  They are MOSTLY FOUND in places where Christianity (Catholicism) is WELL ESTABLISHED. There they do their "mission" of deception!
  9. Only few people around less than 10 million strong Filipinos!
  10. Eraño knew he would be put in prison if he would be shouting in the streets of Rome accusing the Pope as the "anti-Christ" and proclaim his father's church to be the "true Church". Because Eraño still KNOWS CONSCIOUSLY the fact that the Catholic Church is NO DOUBT the accepted TRUE CHURCH from history and the Bible!
  11. The "true Church" of Manalo is located somewhere in Via Viguzzolo No. 16 
    Rome 00166 Italy in a RENTED session hall.  The INCorporated 1914 All Rights Reserved Church of Manalo is NOW in Rome rented session hall.  The name is still in TAGALOG according to its registration in the Roman Securities and Exchange Commission.
