"Ipaglaban mo nang puspusan ang pananampalataya. Panghawakan mong mabuti ang buhay na walang hanggan, dahil diyan ka tinawag ng Diyos nang ipahayag mo sa harap ng maraming saksi ang iyong pananalig kay Cristo." I Tim. 6:12

Bro. Felix Manalo owned the Iglesia ni Cristo?


The source of this attack is obviously from the MCGI of Mr. Soriano, they say that this is the proof that the Iglesia ni Cristo is owned by Bro. Felix Manalo and that he admitted it by saying "my church".

Is this true?

That the Iglesia ni Cristo is owned by Bro. Felix?

Or this is just another misunderstanding?


First of all, the Iglesia ni Cristo is owned by our Lord Jesus Christ, he is the one who purchased the church with his own blood and not Bro. Felix Manalo. Again and again i will say this, we dont have and will never have a doctrine that says Bro. Felix Manalo is the founder and the owner of the Iglesia ni Cristo, Church of Christ. We will not change the only true founder of this church, our Lord Jesus Christ.

Proof?


The name of this church is Iglesia ni Cristo, Church of Christ and not Church of Manalo.


Lets continue...

Bro. Felix Manalo did not said "Members of my church which i owned" rather he said "Members of my church", when someone said "my church" does that mean he/she already owned the church?

Is it always literal???


So, if i say, "I invite you to OUR CHURCH in Bulacan for a grand evangelical mission", does that mean WE OWNED our church???

If i say, "Yes, i go to MY CHURCH every sunday!", does that mean i go to my church which i OWNED, every sunday???

If i asked, "Do you go to YOUR CHURCH frequently?", does that mean you frequently go to YOUR CHURCH which you owned???


I think i dont need to elaborate the explanation for this.

Just let our common sense to work!^^

  1. it is only a figure of speech...kapareho ng: "you can go and visit my school.." hindi ibig sabihin na I own that school kundi, student ako sa school na yon. Kaya kung sabihin man na "my church" ang ibig sabihin lang nun, "church where I belong"..
    anyway, pagbigyan na lang natin yan mga taong yan na walang ginawa kundi maghanap ng "butas" kaya kahit hindi butas ay pipilitin nilang butasin.
    Bakit kaya hindi nila tingnan ung mga properties ng church nila kung sino ang registered owner?
    kung makita nila na hindi nakapangalan sa organisasyon, then, linawin nila sa pinuno nila kung bakit ganon? kung sabihin na later on ay ililipat din sa name ng church ang ownership, eh palusot lang yun, kasi hindi naman bawal na ipangalan sa organisasyon ang properties eh, bakit inilagay pa sa personal na pangalan ng pinuno ang mga properties ng church nila? di ba?
    so, ung pinipilit ibutas ng mga taong yan, bakit di kayo pumunta sa church ko...ibig sabihin, sa church where i do belong. Napakasimple pero pilit na nilalabo...bahala kayo pero kahit ano pa ang gawin nyo, matutupad at matutupad ang mga pangako ng Diyos sa INC. Nang magsimula ito, talagang physically persecuted pero wala nagawa ang mga tao...malalakaing tao at organisasyon ang nagpilit wasakin ang INC pero sabi ng Dios: "Ako ang gagawa at sino ang pipigil?"
