Answers:

From sas35353535: "whats this , cant understand"

From ': "Are you talking about the church in Honolulu with the same name? or are you Pinoy and have this in your country too.

I'd be surprised if there are , but I suppose a Hawaiian could pass for an east Asian in Dubai. No body notices any way ;)"

From Catholic Defender:

There is no official recognition of the United Emirates for a church called "Iglesia ni Cristo".  If the INC founded by Felix Manalo in 1914 (Philippines) are given permission to gather and worship in any of the emirate states, they are categorized under the general term "Protestantism". 

The Jehovah's Witnesses are banned in the UAE.

Permitted Christian groups include the worldwide Catholic Church founded by Jesus Christ in 33 A.D. which has a diplomatic ties with the Vatican State, the Orthrodox Church, some Evangelicals and other Protestant churches and sects. (Source: Global Security)

Mostly visible churches in the region are owned by the Catholic Church mostly are Indians, Filipinos, Lebanese, Americans and Europeans.

Among the churches in the Region are : (Wikipedia)

• St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Abu Dhabi
• St. Mary's Catholic Church, Dubai
• St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Jebel Ali
• St. Michael's Catholic Church, Sharjah
• St. Mary's Catholic Church, Al Ain
• Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church, Fujairah
• Fujairah Sub Centres in Kalba, Khorfakkan and Dibba
• St. Anthony of Padua Church, Ras Al-Khaimah

The Catholic Church in UAE belongs to the larger Vicaraite Apostolic South Arabia. Here is the statistics of Catholics in every country Catholic Church by Country.

However here is more accurate statistics from Catholic Hierarchy.

The Iglesia ni Cristo is  not known to any other nationalities outside the Philippines.  The mere fact that its name is exclusively registered in Tagalog language traces its history in the Philippines when it was founded by Felix Manalo, a Filipino ex-Catholic and ex-Protestant minister which the founder registered his church in 1914 as the "Iglesia ni Kristo" (INK) later was changed to "Iglesia ni Cristo" (or INC).

The INC is a Sole Corporation protected by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Philippine government.  Its name is Registered Patented Trademark that no one is allowed to register a church or group similar to theirs.

The INC members believe that Felix Manalo is an "angel" or their "Last Messenger" which is almost similar to Joseph Smith's earlier claims, founder of Mormonism.  Or some viewed INC's teachings more "Islamic" than "Christian". The only difference is that Mohammad is Islam's "Last Prophet" (or Messenger) while  Felix Manalo is INC's "Last Messenger" called to restore Christ's Church which for them totally apostatized, earlier claimed by Joseph Smith, Mormon's "Last Prophet".

The INC officially believes that the Catholic Church is the True Church of Christ founded by Jesus however it completely apostatized according to INC's official teachings.

Jesus: A Prophet of Islam?

A Muslim Finds the Catholic Faith…Through Geography and Theology

British soccer team owner and prominent philanthropist Ilyas Khan reflects on his conversion.

Share

by EDWARD PENTIN from National Catholic Register

Swiss theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar was instrumental in helping Ilyas Khan, a British philanthropist and former Muslim, to become Catholic. But so too were many other distinctly Catholic influences, all amounting to a “pull” towards the faith rather than a “push” away from Islam.

Khan, a merchant banker by training and the owner of the Accrington Stanley soccer team, is also chairman of the prominent British charity Leonard Cheshire Disability — the largest organization in the world helping people with disabilities. In a revealing interview with Register Rome correspondent Edward Pentin, Khan explains in more detail what drew him to the Catholic Church in 2009.

What brought you to the faith? Was there anything in Islam, perhaps Muslims’ devotion to Our Lady, which helped you to convert?

Yes and no. Devotion to Our Lady on a personal basis is a big part of my faith, but at the same time, I know it wasn’t anything to do with my upbringing as a Muslim. My first tentative steps towards Catholicism were taken in my very early infancy. My mother was very ill at that time, and I was raised till about the age of 3 or 4 by a grandmother who was determinedly Catholic and Irish. I went to a Church school, and I think that when I started classes I didn’t think of myself as anything other than being Christian.

Iglesia ni Cristo Lies and Deceit Part 2

INC Deceit and Lies Part I

Taken from: Study Iglesia ni Cristo

Examine the Verse Philippians 2:9-11 This verse is claimed to provide the basis of the Iglesia ni Cristo belief that Jesus is not an ordinary man but a very special Man, who was sanctified; made Lord, Christ, Savior, Mediator and Judge by God. Because of that obedience, God lifted him high and honored him far beyond anyone or anything, ever, so that all created beings in heaven and on earth—even those long ago dead and buried—will bow in worship before this Jesus Christ, and call out in praise that he is the Master of all, to the glorious honor of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11, The Message)  Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11, New King James Version)  Iglesia ni Cristo belief in God and Jesus Christ: Iglesia ni Cristo believes in the absolute oneness of God, that "the Only True God is the Father" in heaven; The Father is the Lord God Almighty, the Creator of all things. God is Spirit, eternal, immortal and invisible; He is the God and Father of Jesus Christ and His Apostles; and that of Moses, Abraham and the ancient Israelites. Iglesia ni Cristo believes that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. As the Son of God, Jesus is a Man. However, Jesus is not an ordinary man but a "very special Man", who was sanctified; made Lord, Christ, Savior, Mediator and Judge by God.  Apostle's admonition, warning and unique way of teaching: 1. No prophecy of scripture is a matter of personal interpretation (2 Pt. 1:20, NAB) 2. Do not go beyond what is written. (1 Cor. 4:6, NIV) 3. We do not use words of human wisdom. We speak words given to us by the Spirit, using the Spirit's words to explain spiritual truths. (1 Cor. 2:13, NLT) Points to Consider: 1. Please notice the reason why Jesus was highly exalted, in the preceding verse 8, this is written: "And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross" (NKJV). Thus, Jesus is a man who was obedient to God, even up to death. 2. Notice what the above verse clearly says, "Because of that obedience, God lifted him high and honored him or highly exalted Him.... so all created beings.... will bow and worship Him". Thus, it was God the Father who ordered Jesus to be worshipped, not because Jesus is God but only for God's glorious honor. The fact that God exalted Him and ordered Him to be worshipped is proof that Jesus is not God Himself but a very special Man. 3. For more information:

You were FALSELY tricked by these Deceivers of Faith!

As you can see, the Iglesia ni Cristo cult CAREFULLY CHOSE this particular VERSE in PHILIPPIANS 2 and IGNORED verses 1-8  and highlighted only verse is 9-11

What is that? 

Let's see! BEHOLD the LIARS now being EXPOSED!

Phil. 2:1-11:

If there is any encouragement in Christ, any solace in love, any participation in the Spirit, any compassion and mercy, 2complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same love, united in heart, thinking one thing.a 3Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves,b 4each looking out not for his own interests, but [also] everyone for those of others.c

5Have among yourselves the same attitude that is also yours in Christ Jesus,*

6Who,* though he was in the form of God,

did not regard equality with God something to be grasped.*

7Rather, he emptied himself,

taking the form of a slave,

coming in human likeness;*

and found human in appearance,e

8he humbled himself,f

becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross.*

9Because of this, God greatly exalted him

and bestowed on him the name*

that is above every name,g

10that at the name of Jesus

every knee should bend,*

of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth,h

11and every tongue confess that

Jesus Christ is Lord,*

to the glory of God the Father.i

As they have HIGHLIGHTED the word "MAN", they COMPLETELY and DELIBERATELY ignored VERSE 6 which also claims Jesus is in the form of GOD! "

... though he (JESUS CHRIST) was in the form of God"

Read the verse again! It says, JESUS was IN THE FORM OF GOD!!!!!

In Verse 7, the Bible says Jesus is GOD coming in HUMAN LIKENESS and we found this GOD in HUMAN appearance!!!!!!

"...coming in human likeness; and found human in appearance."

The Bible says nothing about Jesus being man ONLY as the Iglesia ni Cristo wants his followers to believe!

It says, Jesus is in the FORM of GOD, something we should all GRASP (understand or comprehend).  He is GOD who came in HUMAN LIKENESS and he was FOUND HUMAN IN APPEARANCE.

Now, have you found any wordings there saying JESUS is a MAN ONLY? !!!

If you believed in INC twisted theology, YOU WERE DECEIVED!

Again as you can see:

"... that at the name of Jesus (a MAN only according to INC) every knee should bend, of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord..."

Yes!  At the NAME of JESUS, every knee shall bend, every tongue confess...

But this SAME WORDINGS was CLAIMED by GOD the Father in Isaiah 45:23

God the FATHER SAID:

"...To me (GOD) every knee shall bend; by me every tongue shall swear..."

So if we believe in the "Two Lords" theology of the INC of Manalo, we may end up with rivalry between the MAN-Jesus and God the Father!

Going back to Philippians 2, the same chapter says JESUS is in the FORM of GOD, which we SHOULD ALL UNDERSTAND!

I will repeat, we need to "ALL UNDERSTAND" or COMPREHEND or GRASP.

Obviously THEY FAILED to understand, comprehend or grasp that TRUTH.

Yes! The CHURCH teaches that JESUS is a TRUE MAN. Their claim is perfectly in congruence with the teachings of the Catholic Church.

But nowhere in the chapter says "HE IS NOT GOD"!

Yes, HE IS IN THE FORM OF GOD -- yet man in our own appearance!

His DEATH was not due to any reason by the JEWS understood well of his (JESUS) CLAIMS in John 10:33:

The Jews answered him, “We are not stoning you for a good work but for blasphemy. You, a man, are making yourself God.”

Did Christ recant or try to correct these Jewish authorities if his words were completely taken out of context?

No!  He didn't!

Because HE KNEW who he was! How could he ever deny his own identity?

He became obedient, even "death on the cross" says Philippians 2.

So please do not be deceived! Before believing in their carefully chosen verses, you need to READ the WHOLE chapter so you can have a CLEAR picture of what's being talked about, not chop-chop verses to suit their GUILE evil intentions!

And what is the Bible telling us about THESE DECEIVERS of Faith?

Here is from 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.

Yes, the IGLESIA NI CRISTO of MANALO is the fulfillment of this message.  They denied JESUS who is GOD coming in the FLESH...

Exposing these DECEIT and LIES of INC of Manalo, may bring souls to the realization that the Iglesia ni Cristo is the anti-Christ disguising as a "church".

To Jesus Christ be praised FOREVER and EVER!

How Do We Know It’s the True Church?

Article borrowed from Catholic Answers Magazine by Fr. Dwight Longenecker

My conversion to the Catholic faith began in the world of Protestant fundamentalism. After being brought up in an independent Bible church, I attended the fundamentalist Bob Jones University. While there I became an Anglican; later, I went to England to become an Anglican priest.

My pilgrimage of faith came to a crisis in the early 1990s as the Anglican Church struggled over the question of the ordination of women. By instinct I was against the innovation, but I wanted to be positive and affirm new ideas rather than reject them just because they were new. I decided to put my prejudices to one side and listen as openly as possible to both sides of the debate.

As I listened I realized that from a human point of view, both the people in favor of women’s ordination and those against it had some good arguments. Both sides argued from Scripture, tradition, and reason. Both sides argued from practicality, compassion and justice. Both sides honestly considered their arguments to be persuasive. Furthermore, both sides were composed of prayerful, church-going, sincere Christians who genuinely believed the Holy Spirit was directing them. How could both be right?

From a human point of view, both arguments could be sustained. This led me to a real consideration of the question of authority in the Church. I realized that the divisions over women’s ordination in the Anglican Church were no different, in essence, than every other debate that has divided the thousands of Protestant denominations.

Some groups split over women’s ordination; others split over whether women should wear hats to church. Some split over doctrinal issues; others split over moral issues. Whatever the issue and whatever the split, the basic problem is one of authority. If Christians have a sincere disagreement, who decides?

Wobbly Three-Legged Stool

Evangelical Protestants say the Bible decides, but this begs the question when the two warring parties agree that the Bible is the final authority. They eventually split because they can’t agree about what the Bible actually teaches. I had moved away from the Protestant understanding that Scripture is the only authority, and as an Anglican, believed that authority rested in Scripture, tradition, and reason.

Catholic Church New Converts!

Pacifica school youngsters among 170 archdiocesan catechumens entering faith

Five students at Good Shepherd School are among the more than 170 people in the Archdiocese of San Francisco who will be baptized into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil.

“I want to become baptized because I want to become part of the Catholic community,” said Sarah Bonomi, 12, who will be baptized, confirmed and receive her first Communion on April 7 at the Church of the Good Shepherd. Five Good Shepherd students will be baptized at Easter Vigil with a sixth baptized the following Sunday.

Chris Zajdzinski: Man leads family, others into the Catholic Church

By Joyce Coronel

Chris Zajdzinski is on fire for the Catholic faith, but it wasn’t always that way.

“I was raised a Baptist-Bible Christian. Just the foundation of that belief is counter to Catholicism,” Zajdzinski said. “You don’t even have to be told the Catholic Church is not legitimate — you’re taught that implicitly.”

In 2008 however, Zajdzinski, his wife and their four children left their Protestant mega church and became Catholic. It all began with a few nagging doubts... Read more here...

Hong Kong diocese continues success in evangelization: 3,500 received at Easter Vigil

The Diocese of Hong Kong welcomed 3,500 adults into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil, continuing a remarkable record of evangelization that has stretched across the years.

The Hong Kong diocese claims about 500,000 Catholics, including nearly 140,000 non-Chinese. So the adult converts received into the Church at Easter amounted to roughly 1% of the current Chinese Catholic population. (An equivalent success for the Boston archdiocese would require nearly 13,000 new adult converts.) The diocese received nearly as many converts—3,400—last year, and 3,000 in 2010...

Harvard trained philosophy professor Richard Sherlock converts from Mormonism to Christianity

One should never leave the religion in which one was born or raised for anything but the most serious of reasons. Warm feelings, family, friends, a social ethos, should never be the reason for joining or leaving a religion. The fact that you do not like the priest, pastor or parishioners should never be a reason for staying or leaving. Anyone who knows me well knows that I have never been a person to "go with the flow" or seek popularity. I was a conscientious objector in the Vietnam War and I have a 1-0 draft card to prove it. I have been an absolute opponent of abortion, euthanasia, and capital punishment my whole adult life. When I was a professor of moral theology at Fordham University in the mid-1980's I happily defended the view that artificial birth control is morally wrong. This was at a time when many, if not most, actually Catholic moral theologians wouldn't do so, or wouldn't do so strongly. I have not left religion or Christianity. But I have left Mormonism. I have become a deeper, more intellectual, more spiritual and truer Christian than I have ever been, literally. I am converting to the Roman Catholic Church. All true roads do lead to Rome...

“Have you been Born Again? Catholic Reflections on a Protestant Doctrine, or How Calvin’s view of Salvation destroyed his Doctrine of the Church”

Ultimately, these discoveries – along with renewed study of Scripture and the Church Fathers – led me away from evangelicalism and the PCA, and into the Catholic Church. (See How John Calvin Made me a Catholic.) And today, I realize that I am not the first one to note these incongruities in the Reformed tradition. There is, in fact, a vast literature playing off Calvin against his heirs, or alternately defending them against the charge of innovation.2 Within the Reformed world, there is ongoing disagreement over the extent and implications of these tensions.3 What few historians dispute, however, is that modern evangelicalism breathes a different air from traditional Calvinism.4 Mark Noll’s assessment of the emerging evangelicalism of the 19th century is not far off the mark...

“Christ our light comes and breaks through the darkness that we experience in suffering and in death and in sin,” she told CNA April 9. “I think that also happens for each of those people who are coming into full communion with the Church. There is that experience of the light of Christ.”

So join now the CHURCH of JESUS CHRIST. Here are some few practical Steps on How to Convert to the Catholic Church

WARNING:

• There are many common misconceptions about the Church which may cause you to look away without giving them a closer look. Find a well-versed Catholic friend, and he or she will probably be able to give you an answer. Alternatively, websites such as Catholic Answers have articles and forums for your questions.

• Until you are a member of the Catholic Church, you are not allowed to receive the Eucharist. It is unlikely that any action will be taken against you, but the Church asks you to respect its traditions. Catholics believe that the Eucharist is the actual body and blood of Christ, no longer bread and wine. Remember that Paul says that, "Therefore whosoever shall eat this bread, or drink the chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord." (1 Corinthians 11:27,29).

• Instead of receiving The Eucharist, those who have not received their First Communion may go in the line where people are receiving the Eucharist but when they reach the altar cross their arms in front of their chest with their palms against their shoulders. This indicates to the priest that you wish to receive a blessing instead. (Non-priests are not empowered to confer a blessing at communion; in this case, if you are ineligible for Holy Communion you should just stay seated. No one minds and you won't cause confusion.)

• The Catholic Church is an establishment that has spanned millenia, it bears a large amount of rite and tradition. If you are not absolutely certain that you want to be a part of this, hold off on the final steps until you truly believe. There are several excellent books on the market regarding other people's conversion journeys. Purchasing and reading these will be quite helpful.

• Above all, do not convert for someone else. Only convert if it is truly what you believe.

Come HOME to ROME and be BLEST!

In England and Wales: The CHURCH converts 2012

Contrary to what the Iglesia ni Cristo (a cult founded by Felix Manalo in the Philippines in 1914) circulated unfounded rumors among themselves, the Catholic Church-- which is the TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST  according to their official magazine called PASUGO April 1966, p. 46, received many new converts to the Church during this Easter 2012. 

Over 3,500 adults received into the Church in England and Wales

Photo Source: Catholic Herald UK

UK, Catholic Herald UK - More than 3,500 adults were received into the Catholic Church in England and Wales last week.

They included 1,397 catechumens, who had prepared to be baptised, and 1,843 candidates, who had already baptised in another Christian tradition.

The largest numbers were in the dioceses of Westminster (734), Southwark (481), Brentwood (333), Birmingham (255) and Portsmouth (206). The total of 3,695 also included those who had joined the ordinariate. Easter is the traditional time for reception of new members of the Church through the Rite of the Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA), the liturgical and catechetical process for adults joining the Church.

Bishop Kieran Conry of Arundel and Brighton, chairman of the Department for Evangelisation and Catechesis of the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales, said many of those who went through the RCIA said they first became interested in the Catholic Church through a family member or friend.

Bakit maraming umaangking sila'y mga "Iglesia ni Cristo"? Bagamat may nag-iisang Iglesiang kay Cristo!

St. Mary's Catholic Church - Dubai, UAE (Source: MSNBC.com)

Nakadalo na ba kayo sa "pamamahayag" (daw) ng Iglesia ni Cristo 1914?

May mga napansin ba kayong kahina-hinala? Naging mapagmasid ba kayo sa inyong mga nakita at inyong mga narinig? Kung naging mapagmasid kayo at nakinig ng maayos marami kayong mapupulot na mga maling aral.

Kung sakaling nakadalo nga kayo ngunit dumating kayo roon na paramg mga "empty CDs" o walang sapat na kaalaman sa pananampalatayang Katoliko (o tabula rasa) sigurado ko, kahit virus or malwares pa 'yan, tatanggapin niyo ng inyong mga "CDs".

Ngunit kung may laman na kayo at may ANTI-VIRUS na kayo sugurado ko, rejected agad ang mga nagpapanggap na mga friendly files pero may nakatago palang mga tojans and worms sa loob nito.

Ganyan ang aral ng INC 1914.  Kunyari banayad pero sa loob nito ay may lasong nakamamatay ng kaluluwa.  Ganyan na ganyan mangaral ang mga bayarang ministro ng INC ni Manalo.

Gagawin lahat upang MAKADAYA ng marami. Para silang mga virus ng computer. Mag-i-inject sila ng mga aral na alam nilang bago sa inyong pandinig at gagamitin nila ang banal na kasulatan PARA MANDAYA.

Gagamitin nila ang inyong "walang-kaalaman" sa pananampalatayang Katoliko at sisirain nito ang inyong pananampalataya.  Itatanim sa inyo ang matinding GALIT at PAGKAMUHI sa Iglesia Katolika at sa mga katoliko.  Sisirain nila ang inyong mga kaluluwa katulad ng pagkasira ng kaluluwa ng nagpanggap daw na Sugo at umangkin ng mga katanginang tanging kay Cristo lamang. 

Kaya't sila'y mga mandaraya ng PANANAMPALATAYA. Sumisira sa ating mga kaligtasan.

Bakit ko sinabing MANDARAYA sila?

Sapagkat sinasabi nilang ang "Iglesia ni Cristo" raw na tatag ni Felix Manalo ang tunay.

At sinasabi pa nila na si Felix Manalo raw ay tinawag ng "Dios" upang maging "sugo sa mga huling araw."  Saan at kailan siya "tinawag" ng Dios? Narinig ba niya ang "Dios" na tumawag sa kanya? O may naging saksi ba sa kanyang "pagtawag"?

At lalong isang malaking pandraya ang sasabihin nilang si Felix Manalo raw ang "BAGONG PASTOL" na sinasabi sa Juan 10:16:

"I have other sheep* that do not belong to this fold. These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd."

Para sa Iglesia ni Cristo 1914, ang PASTOL na tinutukoy rito ay si FELIX MANALO at HINDI si HESU-KRISTO!

PASUGO Mayo 1961, p. 22:

“Papaano magiging kawan o Iglesia ni Cristo itong mga tupa ni Jesus na nagmumula sa Pilipinas, hindi naman naparito si Cristo noong 1914? Ang sabi ni Jesus, Juan 10:16, 'magkakaroon sila ng isang Pastor'. Sino itong isang Pastor ng Iglesia na lilitaw sa Pilipinas? Ang pinagsabihan ng Dios: 'Huwag kang matakot, sapagkat ako'y sumasaiyo: (Isaias 43:5).


“Sino itong pastor ng Iglesiang lilitaw sa Pilipinas? Ito ang huling tinatawag o sugo na kasama ng Dios. Ito ang Kapatid na Felix Manalo. Noong sabihin ni Cristo na siya'y mayroon pang ibang mga tupa na wala sa kulungan at sila'y gagawing isang kawan at magkakaroon ng isang pastor, noon pa'y mayroon na siyang karapatan."

Ngunit sa isang banda, sinasabi rin ng aklat na NILIMBAG ng INC na HINDI raw si FYM ang tinutukoy sa Juan 10:16, KUNDI si HESUS!

SULO sa pahina 58, ay ganito ang mababasa natin:

“Itinuturo din ng Iglesia Katolika na ang Papa ang siyang "Kataas-taasang Pastor". (Question 169). Ito ay salungat din sa turo ni Jesus at ng mga Apostol, sapagkat sinabi ni Cristo: "Ako ang tanging Pastor" (Juan 10:16)".

Ang JUAN 10:16, sino ang tinutukoy na PASTOL:  si CRISTO ba o si FELIX MANALO?!!

Ang gulo nila!!! Mandaraya nga sila!

Ang sabi ni HESUS sa (Mateo 24:4-5)

"Jesus said to them in reply, “See that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and they will deceive many.

"Many will come in my name" sabi ni Cristo. Ibig sabihin, PAGKATAPOS niyang itatag ang kanyang Iglesia, "many will come" at isa na roon ang INC ni Manalo na dumating nga upang MANLINLANG ng tao!

Muli sa Mateo 24:10-11:

"False messiahs and false prophets will arise, and they will perform signs and wonders so great as to deceive, if that were possible, even the elect."

At sila'y magpapanggap na mga "SINUGO" pero babala ng Biblia, sila'y mga paimbabaw at HINDI sila SINUGO. Sa madaling sabi-- PEKE.

At anong palatandaan na sila nga'y mga MANDARAYA? Hindi lang daw IISA ang MADARAYA nila kundi MARAMI.

Sa kasalukuyan may mahigit 3-10 milyon na raw po silang mga NADAYA. Ganyan na po karami ang mga NAGPADAYA sa MANDARAYA!

Narito ang mga Listahan ng mga MANDARAYA sa pagtuturo ng mga labag sa Iglesia.

Sa kaso ni Felix Manalo na nagtatag ng INK at pinalitan ng INC, ang kanyang excommunication ay tinatawag na Latae Sententiae o mas kilala sa tawag na "automatic" excommunication!

Kung paano si Arius na nagtuturong si Cristo ay TAO LAMANG, ang lahat ng mga taga-sunod nito hanggang sa kaapu-apuhan ng Iglesia ni Manalo na NANGOPYA ng Arianism ay SINUMPA na ng Santa Iglesia mahigit isang libong taon na po ang nakalilipas.

Ang sabi ni Apostol San Pablo sa mga taga-Galacia 1:18:

"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!"

Kahit na isang "ANGHEL" daw ang mangaral sa inyo ng KAKAIBA sa mga ITINURO ng mga APOSTOLES, mangyari raw na ITAKWIL siya!

Bakit kaya sa tingin niyo na sinasabi kong "MANDARAYA" sila?

Una, sapagkat ang tunay na Iglesiang itinayo ni Cristo ay si CRISTO MISMO ang nagtatag! Hindi tao!

Ayon sa opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo, PASUGO Nobyembre 1940, p. 23

“Iisa lamang ang tanging makapagtatayo ng Iglesiang magiging dapat sa Dios. Kung sino-- ang ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo lamang! Sino mang tao-- maging marunong o mangmang, maging dakila o hamak-- ay walang karapatang magtayo ng Iglesia"

Kung IISA lamang ang TANGING MAKAPAGTAYO ng IGLESIA-- at ito'y ang ating PANGINOONG HESUKRISTO LAMANG, anong karapatan ngayon ni Felix Manalo upang MAGTATAG ng kanyang Iglesia?

Pangalawa, sapagkat ang tunay na Iglesia itinayo ni Cristo ay sa JERUSALEM itinatag at hindi sa Punta, Santa Ana, Manila sa Pilipinas!

Ayon sa opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo, PASUGO Mayo 1954, p. 9:

“Alin ang tunay na Iglesia? Ang Iglesiang itinayo ni Cristo sa Jerusalem."

Samakatuwid, ang Iglesiang itinatag sa Punta, Manila ay hindi kay Cristo!

Kung hindi kay Cristo ang Iglesiang tatag sa Pilipinas, eh kanino ito?

Heto nga rin ang sinabi ng opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo, 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."

Hayon! Kay Felix Manalo pala ang Iglesia ni Cristo sa Pilipinas ayon sa sinasaad ng kanilang rehistro!!!

At ano ang katayuan ngayon ng Iglesia ni Cristo na tatag ni Felix Manalo sa Pilipinas?

Heto ang opisyal na pahayag ng Iglesia ni Cristo sa usaping ganyan: PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 7:

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

Opo! Ang sabi po ng opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo: HUWAD po SILA!

Kaya't suma-total, MANDARAYA po ang isang PEKENG Iglesiang sabihin nilang "Sila ang tunay" daw at ang Iglesia Katolika raw ang peke?

Heto ang sinasabi ng opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo: PASUGO Abril 1966, p. 46: “Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo."

Aba'y sa PAUMPISA pa lang pala ay IGLESIA KATOLIKA na ang TUNAY na Iglesiang kay Cristo!!!

At kung sasabihin nilang "NATALIKOD na GANAP" ang Iglesiang tatag ni Cristo ayon sa opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo: PASUGO Enero 1964, p. 2:

“Sa isang paksang mababasa sa nakaraang labas nitong Pasugo (Disyembre) ay ipinaliwanag kung saan naroon ang Iglesiang itinayo ni Cristo noong unang siglo as Jerusalem. Ito ay natalikod. Nalipol na lahat."

Eh HINDI po ito maaari. Sapagkat ang sabi ng opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristo:

PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 5:

"Ano ang katangian ng maging Tupa ni Cristo? Sa Juan 10:28 ay ganito ang sabi: 'At sila'y binigyan ko ng walang hanggang buhay, at kailanma'y hindi sila malilipol, at hindi aagawin ng sinuman sa aking kamay'. Isang dakilang kapalaran ang maging Tupa o Tauhan ni Cristo sapagkat sila'y binibigyan niya ng walang hanggang buhay at hindi sila malilipol kailan man."

PASUGO Hunyo 1940, p. 27:

"Papaano ang pag-aalaga at pag-iingat sa pananampalataya? Wala tayong dapat gawin kundi manatili sa mga aral ng Dios na ating napag-aralan. Ito ang ginawa ng unang Iglesia. Sila'y nanatiling matibay sa aral ng mga Apostol. Ganito rin ang dapat nating gawin."

OPO!

HINDI raw po malilipol "KAILAN MAN"!

Sapagkat "binigyan sila ng walang-hanggang buhay"!

Ano ngayon ang dapat gawin ng mga KAANIB ng INC ni Manalo?

Aba'y dapat daw silang "MANATILING MATIBAY" sa mga aral ng Iglesia Katolika sapagkat ito raw po ang GINAWA ng "UNANG IGLESIA"--

At alin ang UNANG IGLESIA na tinutukoy nila?

PASUGO Abril 1966, p. 46:

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

IILAN BA ANG TUNAY NA IGLESIA NI CRISTO at ILAN BA ANG MGA NAGPAPANGGAP?!

Ito ang isa sa mga HIMUTOK nila sa mga Katoliko.

Kung tunay raw ang Iglesia Katolika, bakit wala raw itong pangalan sa Biblia?

Tama! wala ka namang mababasang "Iglesia Katolika" sa English versions or Tagalog or Visaya, or Ilocano versions!

At lalong wala ito sa French, or German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Malaysian, Indonesian, Vietnamese etc. etc versions ng Biblia!!!

Ito'y mababasa lamang sa GREEK VERSION nito. At dapat ka talagang nakakabasa at nakakaunawa ng salitang Griego!

Ganon din sa "Iglesia ni Cristo"!

Sa TAGALOG version lamang po ito masusumpungan at ito'y nasa sa Roma 16:16 (Basahin ang Alin ang Iglesiang binabati ng "lahat ng mga iglesia ni Cristo: Iglesia sa Roma o Iglesia sa Pilipinas?

At bago man magsaya ang mga kaanib ng INC ni Manalo, suriin naman nila kung ILAN ang mga samahan na GUMAGAMIT din ng Roma 16:16 sa iba't ibang wika?

Sa Estados Unidos na lamang may mga nakita akong mahigit sa 50+ na mga samahan na gumagamit ng "Church of Christ" (Iglesia ni Cristo in Tagalog) at lahat sila ay inaangkin ang Romans 16:16:

Iglesia ni Cristo ng Royce City

At ang Iglesia ni Cristo Hesus sa mga Huling Araw (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints o mas kilala sa tawag na MORMONS). Sila'y umaangkin din na GANAP na PAGTALIKOD ng Iglesiang tunay na kay Cristo!!

[At may mga ugong-ugong na nagsasabing 'COPY-CAT' daw ng Mormonism ang Iglesia ni Cristo]

Kaya't kung ikaw ay nagsasabing kaanib ka ng "Iglesia ni Cristo", hindi ba nila kaanib ang mga nagpapatawag din ng "Church of Christ" (o Iglesia ni Cristo in Tagalog) sa ibang bansa? (Iyon nga lamang ay sa wikang Ingles.)

Sa makatuwid, MARAMING mga NAGPAPANGGAP na mga "Iglesia ni Cristo" (or Church of Christ) sa buong mundo.

At ayon sa opisyal na magasin ng Iglesia ni Cristong tatag ni Felix Manalo noong 1914 sa bansang Pilipinas:

PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 7:

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

Opo! Mga HUWAD lamang po silang lahat na NAGPAPANGGAP!

At dahil dito sa ating ipinakitang katotohanan, TANGING ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA lamang ang IISA.

Saan mang sulok sa BUONG MUNDO, ang Iglesia Katolika ay IISA.

IISA ang mga PAGBASA sa BIBLIA.

IISA ang TEMA sa Misa.

IISA ang kulay na ginagamit ng pari

IISA ang intension at panalangin sa maghapon

IISA ang pagdiriwang ng Banal na Misa

IISA ang panalangin ng Bayan

IISA ang tinuturing na IGLESIA

IISA ang pagbibinyag

IISA ang Dios sa banal na Santatlo

IISa ang kinikilalang kahalili ni San Pedro

IISA ang Panginoon (hindi dalawa ayon sa INC ni Manalo).

At bukod sa lahat may KAISAHAN at PAGKAKAISA sa Iglesia Katolika sapagkat ito nga ang TUNAY na IGLESIANG itinatag ni CRISTO!

At bilang pangwakas, ang sabi ng kasaysayan ay:

Mula sa History of Christianity:

"As both its critics and its champions would probably agree, Roman Catholicism has been the decisive spiritual force in the history of Western civilization. There are more Roman Catholics in the world than there are believers of any other religious tradition--not merely more Roman Catholics than all other Christians combined, but more Roman Catholics than all Muslims or Buddhists or Hindus. The papacy is the oldest continuing absolute monarchy in the world. To millions the pope is the infallible interpreter of divine revelation and the Vicar of Christ..."

Ang sabi pa ng mga dalubhasa, ang IGLESIA KATOLIKA raw ay "OLDEST" and "CONSTINUOUSLY" active.

Ibig sabihin, HINDI NALIPOL! Bagkos PATULOY at AKTIBO, hindi namamatay!

Ang mga patotoong ito ay mula sa The Great Courses:

"The Catholic Church. It began as a small band of supporters following the teachings of an itinerant preacher in an outpost of the Roman Empire. From there, the church expanded both its size and its importance in the grand scheme of Western history.


Consider that the Catholic Church

• steered Western civilization through historical events such as the fall of the Roman Empire, the Dark Ages, the Crusades, and the Reformation;

• influenced the political ideas and actions of powerful leaders in a variety of European nations;

• made deep contributions to the Western philosophical tradition through the works of religious philosophers such as St. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas;

• funded and inspired the creation of fantastic works of religious art and literature, such as northern Europe's Gothic cathedrals, Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, and Dante's Divine Comedy;

• and much more.

Today, the church is the oldest continuously active organization on Earth and one of the most influential institutions in the world—a force capable of moving armies, inspiring saints, and shaping the lives of a billion members. (emphasis mine)

Opo. Tanging ang Iglesia Katolika lamang po ang NAG-IISANG Iglesiang may pinakamatandang kasaysayan mula pa noong ito'y itinatag.

At patuloy at aktibo po itong gumagabay sa buong mundo, isa sa pinakamakapangyarihang institusyon sa buong mundo--

Halina't ating alamin ang Katotohanan Tungkol sa INK-1914 at ang mga ARAL at TURO ng NAG-IISA, BANAL, PANGKALAHATAN at APOSTOLIKONG IGLESIA ni CRISTO!!!

INC: They can never crush the Church which Christ built!

St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City (Source: Introduction to the Roman Catholic Church)

Can the INC of Felix Manalo CRUSH the Church which Christ have built?

Title: Simple WAY to CRUSH the term “CATHOLIC”

From Net54 Forum

If Catholic Religion was founded by Christ, why is it that there was no mention in of the term Catholic in the bible?

Catholics must have questioned themselves why Christ being the founder of true religion did NOT use or HAS NO IDEA with the term Catholic as part of the Official Name of the group which He started.

Findings:
Catholic therefore is neither from Christ nor from the Apostles.

Catholic Violations:
1. The All or None Rule, if is from God it must be purely from the bible and nothing mans own speculative teachings. The adding of the word Catholic to the official Name of the true religion and the subtraction of the most important Name which is "Christ".

2. There is no implication in the bible that after the death of Christ and the Apostles Church of Christ the Official name of the true religion be replaced by the Holy Catholic Apostolic ROMAN Church.

By the way, having less than 10% holy mass attendees even in a religious country like the Philippines is a clear fact HOW BROKE CATHOLICISM IS. Imagine how worse it is in North America, Europe, and even in Latin America.

Result:
Catholic Properties being sold and some of it were bought by the Iglesia Ni Cristo.

First of all, our Lord made an everlasting assurance that HIS CHURCH can NEVER be crushed. He promised that "the gates of hell shall not prevail." (Mt. 16:16-18), indeed HIS CHURCH is still resounding and stirring up nations and peoples in the 21st century to the Third Millennium!

This INC trying to fool himself is going against the will of Christ.

Kingdoms and empires tried crushing the CHURCH but now they are all in history. And the CATHOLIC CHURCH is still standing, vibrantly breathing for this CHURCH is CHRIST'S and not man's.

Do not allow yourselves to be TRICKED by these DECEIVERS of FAITH. Always remember, that the BIBLE is OUR BOOK! It is a CATHOLIC BOOK and not Manalo's.

In fact, the Iglesia ni Cristo DO NOT have Bible of their own. What a SHAME!  They RELIED heavily on our Bible and and Protestant versions of the Bible.

Wala silang sariling kanila! NAKIKIHIRAM lang!

And be assured that the CHURCH is the "pillar and bulwark of truth." (1 Tim 3:15).

If Catholic Religion was founded by Christ, why is it that there was no mention in of the term Catholic in the bible?

The word "CATHOLIC" is from two Greek words "kata" and "holos". Thus our English word "CATHOLIC" comes from those two Greek words.

That's what we call "ETYMOLOGY" or the origin of words. These words are there in the Greek translation!

[Read Online Etymology Dictionary]:

Using their own set standards, how could they believe in a BIBLE when the word "bible" is NOT even found in the Bible itself?

The same with the words "Felix Manalo", "Eraño Manalo", "Eduardo" and "Angelo"?

They might be surprised even the word "Pilipinas" is not even mentioned there? How bout "Diliman"? or "Quezon City"? Surely you will never find these words in the Bible. Not even the words "Iglesia ni Cristo" is found in any translation except in the TAGALOG!

For Manalo's INC, surely, they will agree with me.  They do believe even these words are not even mentioned in the Bible.

So why they are so much fretting out with the word "catholic" when most of what they hold dear to their faith are NOT even found in the Bible?

However before they rejoice in the words "Iglesia ni Cristo" read my earlier post Alin nga ba ang "binabati ng lahat ng mga Iglesia ni Cristo: Iglesia sa Pinas o Iglesia sa Roma?

Catholics must have questioned themselves why Christ being the founder of true religion did NOT use or HAS NO IDEA with the term Catholic as part of the Official Name of the group which He started.

INC members should ask themselves: Why Christ would specifically name a Church after himself when in fact there was ONLY ONE CHRIST which HE founded?

If HE is the ONLY one who has the SOLE AUTHORITY to build a CHURCH, it's futile and unncessary to name to him.  

That would be very "stupid" thing to do.  (Alam mo nang IKAW lang ang tanging makapagtayo eh ilalagay mo pa ang pangalan mo?)

Unless there were Christ II or Christ III or IV or V or LIV etc that the ORIGINAL CHRIST should put emphasis on "ME-church".

But there was ONLY ONE CHRIST and HE ALONE built this ONE CHURCH-- no more!And what is written in Romans 16:16 was never a command. It was implied that THERE EXIST a CHURCH which is CHRIST's!

Therefore, whether it is named as "Church of Christ" or "Church of God" or "Church of the Living God" or "Church of the Savior" etc, it will not change the FACT that this CHURCH in many names is the same ONE CHURCH of JESUS CHRIST which is now known as the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC and APOSTOLIC CHURCH having 22 different RITES but belonging to ONE CHURCH-- the CATHOLIC CHURCH!

On the other hand, we should be thanking the INC's own Official Magazine because they too confirms that truth when it says:

“Ang Iglesia Katolika na sa pasimula ay siyang Iglesia ni Cristo." (PASUGO Abril 1966, p. 46)

And that there is ONLY ONE who CAN build a church, no one but Christ:

“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..." (PASUGO Nobyembre 1940, p. 23).

And because they too know very well that THERE IS ONLY ONE CHURCH Jesus built, they also believed that all other churches claiming to be "churches of Christ" (iglesia ni Cristo)  are far from being true. Therefore they are but ARE FAKE churches:

“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!" (PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 7).

As a proof of that PERPETUAL EXISTENCE of the Catholic Church as the true "Church of Christ" (Pasugo April 1966 p. 46) the same official magazine confirms that they need to imitate this SAME CHURCH whose FAITH remain STEADFAST:

"Papaano ang pag-aalaga at pag-iingat sa pananampalataya? Wala tayong dapat gawin kundi manatili sa mga aral ng Dios na ating napag-aralan. Ito ang ginawa ng unang Iglesia. Sila'y nanatiling matibay sa aral ng mga Apostol. Ganito rin ang dapat nating gawin." (PASUGO Hunyo 1940, p. 27)

(Read more: Ang Katotohanan Tunkol sa INK-1914 written by J. Pinzon)

Findings:

Catholic therefore is neither from Christ nor from the Apostles.

On the contrary, here is what secular historical on the Catholic Church:

Wikipedia confirms the HISTORICITY of the Catholic Church as the CHURCH being identified in the Bible-- founded by Jesus Christ.

In the History of the Catholic Church it says that the Catholic Church was "founded by Jesus Christ at the Confession of Peter".

Online Britannica Encyclopedia: "The The Roman Catholic Church traces its history to Jesus Christ and the Apostles. Over the course of centuries it developed a highly sophisticated theology and an elaborate organizational structure headed by the papacy, the oldest continuing absolute monarchy in the world."

About.com: "The New Testament disciples of Jesus Christ provided the beginning origins of the Roman Catholic Church."

By the way, having less than 10% holy mass attendees even in a religious country like the Philippines is a clear fact HOW BROKE CATHOLICISM IS. Imagine how worse it is in North America, Europe, and even in Latin America.

Result:

Catholic Properties being sold and some of it were bought by the Iglesia Ni Cristo.

Once again let's EXPOSE these LIARS and DECEIVERS of FAITH!!!

Here's a thorough STATISTICS of Catholics found in every country.

In NORTH AMERICA: Out of 448,587,847 total population, there are about 173,212,640 Catholics (38.61% of the total population).

In EUROPE: Out of 750,072,510, there are about 283,916,457 Catholics, around 37.85% of the total population.

In SOUTH AMERICA (Latin): Out of 371,363,897, there are about 299,570,011 Catholics, around 80.66% of the total population.

In fact, out of 6,442,583,922 total population in the world, 17.18% of it are Catholics. Which means there are 1,181,368,942 Catholics in the world.

And how about the POPULATION of the INCorporated Church of Manalo?  Any number??!!!

The truth is: Manalo's INC paid ministers should DOUBLE-TIME doing their "Pamamahayag", because just for the past year, there are about 15,000,000 (15 million) new members added to the Catholic Church.

Yes you heard me right, 15 MILLION Catholics were added!!!!

So how many were new converts to the INC of Manalo? Any statistics?...

According to the Philippine Daily Inquirer, members of the INC of Manalo makes up only 2.3% of the Total population of the whole Philippines. 

This might frustrate this WISHFUL INCorporated Church of Manalo member.  There is no way that the CATHOLIC CHURCH OF CHRIST would fall.

In one of my posts at "Ang Iglesia Katolika ay Tuluyan ng Bumagsak sa Kanluran" ayon sa kaanib ng Iglesia ni Cristo a certain INCorporated Church of Manalo member came up with another LIE.  Only to be caught off-handed ASKING MORE DONATIONS!!!!

With those arrogance that the INC is buying properties abroad (and even building it's Centennial Arena), it only proves one thing!

That the Iglesia ni Cristo founded by Feilx Manalo in 1914 is a BUSINESS INCorporated 1914 All Right Reserved Trademark-- disguising as a Church.

Therefore, this article IGLESIA NI CRISTO IN A NUTSHELL is just exposing that secrecy.  Thanks to this "libelous" article! (Read my earlier post: Why a multi-million church without an official website.)

So can Manalo's Iglesia ni Cristo crush the CHURCH Jesus built in Jerusalem?

Impossible!

Thanks to their Official Magazine: 

PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 5:

"Ano ang katangian ng maging Tupa ni Cristo? Sa Juan 10:28 ay ganito ang sabi: 'At sila'y binigyan ko ng walang hanggang buhay, at kailanma'y hindi sila malilipol, at hindi aagawin ng sinuman sa aking kamay'. Isang dakilang kapalaran ang maging Tupa o Tauhan ni Cristo sapagkat sila'y binibigyan niya ng walang hanggang buhay at hindi sila malilipol kailan man."

PASUGO Hunyo 1940, p. 27:

"Papaano ang pag-aalaga at pag-iingat sa pananampalataya? Wala tayong dapat gawin kundi manatili sa mga aral ng Dios na ating napag-aralan. Ito ang ginawa ng unang Iglesia. Sila'y nanatiling matibay sa aral ng mga Apostol. Ganito rin ang dapat nating gawin."

Therefore, we encourage members of Manalo's Church to heed what their Official Pasugo is saying. They should hold STEADFAST to the FAITH of the FIRST CHURCH.

And what is this FIRST CHURCH?

Thanks to INC's official magazine PASUGO:

PASUGO Abril 1966, p. 46:

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

YES!

The CHURCH of JESUS CHRIST is no other than the CATHOLIC CHURCH!!!  And this CHURCH will never be crushed!!!!

PASUGO Mayo 1968, p. 5:

"... hindi sila malilipol kailan man."
