"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

Ang Iglesia Katolika ay isang malaking negosyo!

Kung mapapansin nyo, ang mga katoliko, partikular na ng mga Catholic Defenders, lagi nilang sinasabi na ang Iglesia ni Cristo DAW ay isang negosyo ng mga "Manalo". 

Andyan yung sinasabi nila na ang mga handog daw namin ay sa kanila lang napupunta, andyan yung sinasabi nila na meron daw kaming eskuwelahan, hospital, at ngayon may ipinapatayong Philippine Arena at Philippine Sports Complex kung saan mag aakyat DAW ng pera para sa mga "Manalo". 

Pero kung aalamin natin ang katotohanan, ito pong mga nabanggit sa itaas ay not for profit.

Eh kung magmayabang naman sila, eh sa church nga nila akmang akma ikapit ang salitang "BUSINESS". 

Bakit kamo?

Eto negosyo nila oh:

As of 2000

Primary and secondary schools 125,016

Universities 1,046

Hospitals 5,853

Orphanages 8,695

Homes for the elderly and handicapped 13,933

Dispensaries, leprosaries, nurseries and other institutions 74,936

Ang tindi ano po? Nag invest pa sa mga MINING COMPANIES!

Isang malaking KONTRADIKSYON..

Bakit? Kayo na po ang humusga:

"MANILA -- The Philippines' ambition to become a world leader in mineral production isn't just running up against the global credit crunch. Mining in this Southeast Asian nation also is being hamstrung by the Roman Catholic Church.

Over the past few years, Bishop Arturo Bastes has spearheaded the church's campaign to shut down a gold and copper mine in Rapu-Rapu island, in the central Philippines." 

 "Bishop Bastes is following a tradition of Catholic clergy taking on mining, especially in Central America."

"When the Church began campaigning against mining in the 1980s, more than 50 mines operated in the Philippines,..." 

 "Mining is the cause of all the trouble," Bishop Bastes says. "God created the world for people to enjoy, not for miners to destroy."

  3. Mga kaibigan sa Iglesia....Paki google search lang po ang "Catholic Silent Crusade" at paki basa ang post #10 The Triumph of the Blessed Sacrament...you may be surprised...

    The real missing second sheep is here not us Filipinos only:John 10:25-30
    25 Jesus answered, "I did tell you, but you do not believe. The miracles I do in my Father's name speak for me,
    26 But you do not believe because you are not my sheep.
    [My view - this is the 2nd sheep, unbelieving Jews & also pagan gentiles]
    27 My sheep listen to my voice, I know them and they follow me.
    [My view - these are the first sheep who is in Jesus' fold]
    28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, no one can snatch them out of my hand.
    [My view - the church Jesus originally founded on Peter the Rock]
    29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.
    30 I and the Father are one."
    [My view - Jesus never did say they are two but one (1&1 is 2), he said they are one not two Gods, the Holy Spirit is the 3rd persona in one God]

    1. Question: Why would we visit your blog and believe your OPINION?

      You given us bible verses and still you make your own interpretation!

      PROOF: you said the words "MY VIEW" 4 times, which means those are only your opinion. And yes, we have freedom, so believe what you want to believe, but dont regret it when Jesus Christ comes. Its not too late, study the bible with an open mind.

    2 Pedro 1:20-22 “Na
    maalaman muna ito, na alin
    mang hula ng kasulatan ay
    hindi nagbuhat sa SARILING PAGPAPALIWANAG. Sapagka't
    hindi sa kalooban ng tao

  7. To Silent Crusader,

    I did not publish your first comment because it violated one of my rules here. reread my rules and analyze whats wrong there. Also, i decided not to publish your second comment because it also violated one of my rules here. If you remember, you accuse my blog of being bias which means that i am bias.

    You know, i try my very best to balance my moderation on the comments here, because i really dont want to be accused of being bias because what i do here is not just defending the church but to show the truth to everyone. That is the reason there are rules here.

    So, if you really think im bias, what are you doing here? why are you hoping that your comments will be approved if in the first place, you think im BIAS? does that make sense? If you dont trust me, then go to another blog that has no comment moderation, and will accommodate all your opinions in your life.

  10. Yung Confessions nga,may donation box sa pinto.
    Yung Communion,may charge.
    Yung kasal,libing,binyag,pamisa at iba pang Catholic rites,may bayad.

    Sa Iglesia ni Cristo,walang binyag,may paghahandog,walang charge.
    May kasal,walang charge rin,in schedule.
    Walang kumpisal,kasi pag sa Catholics,baka yung sikreto mong ikinumpisal,biglang kumalat.Sa Ama ka humingi ng tawad,huwag sa pari.Wala silang pakialam sa inyong pinagdadaanan.

    Thanks Ka Readme....From a former Catholic,now proud to be INC.
