"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

ABS-CBN: INC petition violates personal freedom, lawyer says

How could Eduardo V. Manalo, the present Executive Minister of the Iglesia Ni Cristo® founded by their grandfather FELIX MANALO, by his conscience consents evil that’s happening to his very family? How could a "preacher" of "Christian" (if they were ever been considered Christians) love and forgiveness permits this? "Give the other cheek" (Mt. 5:39)? "Honor thy father and thy mother..." (Deut. 5:16); what happened to those beautiful verses which undoubtedly demonstrate Christian virtues? Looking back, no good son would sentence his own mother to hell just as what Eduardo V. Manalo (EVM) did to his own. I am not an expert of the Bible but I haven’t come across any of the Biblical personalities like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, the prophets, sages and apostles, who admonished, sacked, insulted, convicted, or sent their mothers to hell! Not even their church founder Felix Manalo (whose mother remained and died a Catholic) nor Eraño G. Manalo ever was discourteous to their mothers. ONLY EDUARDO V. MANALO! That’s not godly! That is pure evil, ill-mannered minister undeserving of a man of God. Clearly God is already demonstrating to every member of the Iglesia Ni Cristo®, it's TIME TO LEAVE THAT CHURCH because it does not radiate any righteous qualities. The real, true, genuine, accurate Church of Christ hasn’t apostatized as Jesus (her founder) promised (Mt. 16:1618). COME HOME to his ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH! JESUS IS WAITING!

After all, the Iglesia Ni Cristo® is OWNED BY THE MANALOS, not by the Iglesia Ni Cristo® itself!

But INC lawyer Cuevas says restrictions needed to ensure security in compound

MANILA - A petition for injunction filed by the Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) abridges the personal freedom of Angel Manalo and Lottie Manalo-Hemedez, the Manalos' lawyer Trixie Angeles said.

The INC filed a petition on September 23, asking the court to prohibit unknown individuals from entering the premises of the INC compound in 36 Tandang Sora Avenue Quezon City where INC Executive Minister Eduardo Manalo's siblings are staying.

The petition was filed before the Quezon City Regional Trial Court after CCTV footage of people entering the compound was discovered.

INC legal counsel Atty. Serafin Cuevas Jr. said the INC deemed it necessary to petition for the restrictions to ensure the security of the occupants.

Cuevas also added that the INC may ask for the restrictions as the owner of the property.

In the hearing on the merits of the case on Tuesday, Cuevas asked for the names and pictures of all the occupants.

He also asked before the court to disallow visitors from staying in the compound overnight.

"It's their [Angel and Lottie's] right [to have visitors], you see. The only people who are not allowed visitors are people who are detained. This [petition] amounts to restriction of their personal freedom," said Angeles.

Both parties agreed to meet halfway while the case is being heard.

Included in the temporary agreement is the submission of all the occupants' names and pictures, as well as the list of all their visitors.

Meanwhile, guards will be posted in a public area outside the compound to ensure the security and to monitor the visitors.

The next hearing is set on Monday, October 5.

Sanggunian ng Iglesia Ni Cristo® ititiwalag ang mga anak ni Eduardo V. Manalo (EVM)?

Ulat mula pa rin kay G. Antonio Ebangelista (hindi niya tunay na pangalan), Ministro ng INC™, patungkol sa "Leksiyon sa Pagsambang Sabado at Linggo: May 2/3, 2015"

Tahimik po sa isyung ito si kapatid na ReadMeINC :)
April 30, 2015 
Mga mahal na Kapatid,

Marahil po ay kumalat na sa inyong Lokal ang issue na ititiwalag na daw po ang magkapatid na Ka Angel and Ka Mark Manalo. At narito po ang leksyon na kanilang pinabalangkas kay Kapatid na Dan V. Orosa upang bigyan ng “justification” ang kanilang gagawing pagtitiwalag sa magkapatid at sa lahat ng sinumang magkukwestyon sa Sanggunian.

Bago po ninyo ito basahin, nais po naming ipabatid sa inyo na ang leksyon na ito ay ginawa ng Kapatid na Felix Y. Manalo, ang sugo ng Diyos sa mga huling araw na ito. At upang matanggap natin ito ng buong galang at pagkaunawa ay isinangguni ko po ito sa mga kaibigan kong mga Tagapangasiwa at mga Ministro upang malaman ang kanilang pananaw ukol dito.

Wala po kaming anumang tutol sa hanay ng Sugo sa leksyong ito, wala rin po kaming tutol sa nilalaman ang mga talata, ang nais lang po naming ipapansin sa inyo ay kung paanong ginamit itong leksyon na ito ng Sugo upang bigyan ng sapat na dahilan ng Ka Dan. V. Oras na hindi dapat batikusin, punahin at kwestyunin ang mga Taga-Sanggunian dahil katumbas daw ito ng paghihimagsik sa Sugo at sa Pasugo at tatanggap ng kaparusahan gaya ng binabanggit sa mga talata ng Biblia.

Ang mga komento po ng mga kasama po naming mga Tagapangasiwa at mga Ministro ay nakapaloob sa [***…***]. Minarapat po naming hindi na muna sabihan ang pangalan ng mga tapat na Ministrong ito upang huwag silang mapag-initan ng mga taga-Sanggunian. Narito na po ang Leksyong pang Sabado at Linggo:


ANG IBUBUNGA SA MGA KAPATID NA MAY PAGHIHIMAGSIK SA SUGO AT SA PASUGO

ISYU


Ang Diyos ang tuwirang kinakalaban ng sinumang kapatid na naghihimagsik o lumalaban sa Sugo at sa pasugo Niya at ito ay kaniyang ikapapahamak....
ITULOY ANG PAGBABASA RITO

Mga mahal na kapatid, lalo po nating pagibayuhin ang ating pagpapanata sa Ama upang kahabagan nya ang buong Iglesia sa pangunguna ng ating pinakamamahal na Kapatid na Eduardo V. Manalo. Nawa ay ihayag na ng Panginoong Diyos sa Tagapamahalang Pangkalahatan ang lahat ng mga katiwaliang nagaganap ngayon sa pangunguna ng mga taong pinagtiwalaan nyang mangalaga sa Iglesia, ang Sanggunian. Sana ay protektahan ang Kapatid na Eduardo V. Manalo mula sa lahat ng uri ng panganib sa kaniyang paligid at manatiling malakas at makapangyarihan upang magabayan nya ang buong Iglesia sa ganap na pagbabagong buhay at paglilinis sa loob ng Iglesia at papanumbalikin ang Iglesia sa kaniyang malinis at walang dungis na kalagayan. Diringgin lang tayo ng Ama kung sakaling buong kababaang loob tayong mangungunyapit sa Kaniya at aasa na Siya lamang ang maaaring makatulong sa atin lalo na sa panahong ito na laganap ang mga kumakaaway sa Iglesia sa loob at labas nito, marami ang nagnanais namanamantala sa Pamamahala at sa Iglesia. Kapag sama-sama tayong dudulog at magmamakaawa sa Panginoong Diyos, tutuparin Nya ang Kaniyang pangako sa Kaniyang bayan, diringgin Nya tayo sa ating pagmamakaawa at ihahayag Nya ang lahat ng mga taong tampalasan upang huwag na silang makapinsala sa Iglesia, sa ganoy manunumbalik ang kapayapaan at katiwasayan sa ating mga paglilingkod sa Ama, lalung lalo na sa ating mga pagtupad ng Tungkulin. Kahabagan nawa tayo ng Ama at ingatan tayo mula sa lahat ng mga nais na puminsala sa atin at sagkaan ang ating layunin na maibalik ang Iglesia sa kaniyang malinis at maningning na kalagayan. 
Maraming salamat po. 
Antonio Ebangelista

Nasaan kaya si Cristo sa pinaglalaban nilang ito samantalang ang tawag sa kanilang samahan ay "Iglesia Ni CRISTO"!?

Lumalabas na Iglesia nga ito ni Manalo sapagkat mga Manalo rin ang namamahala at nagpapatupad at nangangalaga ng lahat ng kanyang gampanin.

Ano ngayon ang role ni "Cristo" sa "Iglesiang" ito? Parang lumalabas na si Cristo ay tulog na naman at walang paki sa nangyayari tulad ng kanilang bintang na NATALIKOD NA GANAP daw ang tunay na Iglesia ni Cristo- ang Iglesia Katolika. 

Sa gayon, lumalabas na nagpabaya nga si Cristo sa loob ng libong taon upang ito'y matalikod na ganap!  At ngayo'y NAGPAPABAYA na naman ULIT si Cristo at nagkakagulo na ang "kanyang" iglesiang lumitaw sa Pilipinas sa pamamagitan ng kanya raw na "Huling Sugo"...

Napaka-pabaya naman ng kanilang "Cristo"--- laging tulog sa pansitan. Manhid at walang pakialam sa kanyang "iglesia"! At nanganganib na matatalikod na naman ang pangalawang iglesia niya at magtatatag na naman ng bago... at saan kaya ito susulpot na naman? At sino kaya ang magiging sunod na susuguin niya?!

ANGELO ERAÑO VENTURA MANALO: Iglesia Ni Cristo's next 'pope' (if the rumored glitch over his father Eduardo would be repaired)

Kilalanin si ANGELO ERAÑO V. MANALO, kaisa-isang anak na lalaki ng mag-asawang Eduardo V. Manalo (present little 'pope' ng INC™) at ni Lynn Ventura. Si Ka Angelo po kasi ang susunod na 'munting papa' ng Iglesia Ni Cristo® kung sakaling pumanaw na itong kanyang ama na si Eduardo Villanueva Manalo.

Tandaan: Ang INC ay pinamumunuan ng mga angkan ni Felix Manalo, ang tagapagtatag ng Iglesia Ni Cristo®.  

"Gusto niyong maghari sa Iglesia [Ni Cristo®], tamaan kayo ng kidlat bago mangyari 'yon!" -Babala ng yumaong Eraño de Guzman Manalo sa mga gustong umangkin sa Iglesia ng kanyang amang si Felix Manalo



Like an American Idol Judge on a reality based comedy show, I bet that the next lucky clown as the successor of Iglesia Ni Cristo Executive Minister Eduardo Manalo would be Angelo Eraño Manalo. This lucky guy was at the right place and at the right time on being the only son of Eduardo Manalo (we do not know if there's any illegitimate children). Dorothy Kristine and Gemma Minna can go back on being teachers on NEU but the lucky wind has been kinder to their brother Angelo Eraño Manalo. As a clear evidence that Angelo Eraño is now being suited and getting prepared as the next successor of Eduardo Manalo as INC leader, "Bro." Angelo Erano has already taken his oath as assistant evangelical worker in the local congregation of V. Luna. He was also entrusted as the coordinator of Christian Family Organization (CFO) for Metro Manila districts (East, North & South). Like a snake in the grass, Angelo Eraño Manalo is slowly and silently making his way to the top. No one should be surprised if time comes that our next Golden boy Angelo Eraño will be announced as 'elected' to be the next Iglesia Ni Cristo Executive Minister. I guess I would be the first to congratulate Angelo Eraño Manalo on his next new duty. Good luck on your political endorsements during elections. Let us welcome Angelo Eraño Manalo as the next INC executive Minister after his father Eduardo Manalo. All hail the Manalo family. -from Pinoy Courier

Iglesia ni Cristo Established by Felix Manalo-- owned ONLY by the Manalos!

Extracted from Philippine Embassy, USA (emphasis mine)
Established by “Ka” (Brother) Felix Y. Manalo in Sta. Ana, Manila, on July 14, 1914, INC has grown to become one of the country’s biggest religious denominations.

The church has millions [how many millions???] of members in its more than 5,400 congregations in the Philippines and in 90 countries worldwide [composed of Overseas Filipino Workers]...

"...When Ka Felix Manalo passed away on April 12, 1963, his post was taken over by his son, Ka Eraño G. Manalo. Upon Ka Eraño’s demise on August 31, 2009, his eldest son, Bro. Eduardo “Ka Ed” V. Manalo succeeded him to become INC’s current Executive Minister." [Angelo is next in line when Ka Eduardo dies...]
