The plan to overthrow the Church Administration of the Church Of Christ

FROM THE AUTHOR: This article is the english translation of my article entitled "Ang planadong pagpapabagsak sa pamamahala ng Iglesia ni Cristo". I would like to thank the brethren who did the translation, for the effort and time youve spent, for the sake of the english speakers around the world.

Are you also confused of how events are going now?

I understand that there are many brethren, especially the brethren abroad, who are surprised about the successive news about the Iglesia Ni Cristo. But what I can tell you is that, YOU SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISED because all of these were PLANNED by the GROUP OF ANTONIO EBANGHELISTA.

Do you think I am out of my mind because I just wanted to defend the Church? Do you think I am leaning towards those who are being accused by the group of A.E.? Well, you are mistaken!

I AM ON THE SIDE OF TRUTH. I AM ON THE SIDE OF GOD.

I know that you have learned through the media or maybe directly from the blogs of Antonio Ebanghelista his allegations. What are these?

1. They say that Brother Eduardo does not want to talk to his family

2. The alleged senseless selling of Church properties

3. Luxurious lifestyle and unexplained wealth of the Church Council

4. Irresponsible construction of the Philippine Arena

5. The alleged questionable purchase of the property at Scenic, South Dakota

6. The rumored tax evasion case of the Church in Japan

7. The alleged corruption involved in the establishment of the Subic Bay Felix Manalo Foundation

8. The compulsory purchase of coffee table books and INC memorabilia

9. Successive unnecessary special offerings

10. Talks about the Church owning a luxurious plane

11. The anomalous joint venture of the Church concerning the construction of Fort Victoria

12. The Church was rumored to have sold houses of worship

13. The allegation of the abductions of ministers

and many others...

Are you not wondering about these events?

If you have long been following the group of Antonio Ebanghelista, you will understand what I mean... And if you are gradually being convinced by his group, who were expelled from the Church,

This is what you should ponder over now...

#1 Was it just a coincidence that the date of the blog of Antonio Ebanghelista was the same as that when an article titled “Two Pronged Leaving the Church Of Christ” was published in rappler.com?

 The start...

April 11, 2015 Beloved brethren, first of all I would like to thank all of those who sent me private messages thanking me about the information that I shared on this thread. There are those who commended the courage and confidence of exposing the matters that I know...

 If you read the contents of the letter of a certain SENDER who is a Church member, you will notice that the message is similar to that of the message of the blog of Antonio Ebanghelista... 

"The new church administration always plays the scare game: If you don't obey, you will be excommunicated and will face the lake of fire at judgement day.

First, it seems that this leads to some ministers asking more than what someone can wholeheartedly give by scaring them when it comes to their faith.

Next is the way the sermons are being constructed, as to denote that if you face difficulties in your life, you must just bear with it or ignore it for your faith.

Nowadays (just this 2015), it is made worse by pointing out in sermons that the reason you are still poor, still suffering is because you do not obey the teachings of the Church.

Could it be that one of those in the group of Antonio Ebanghelista was the one who sent that article to support the initial expose of A.E. regarding the alleged corruption in the Church?

#2 Do you know that even last month, the facebook accounts of SHER LOCK, ANTONIO EBANGHELISTA, and LITO DE LUNA FRUTO, were already showing signs of the brewing public expose regarding their accusations that they will carry out through the MEDIA?

I regret that I was not able to take screenshots of their fanpages. When I browsed again the account of Lito De Luna Fruto, he had already deleted the previous posts. This was the same with that of Sher Lock. The original fb account of Antonio Ebanghelista could also no longer be found.

As what I remembered, they said that “ITS TIME TO UTILIZE MEDIA.” They will bring it out through the media because they wanted more of the brethren to sympathize with them.

What I did not anticipate was the way they used media. At first, only a few took notice of them when they were still individually campaigning through media. However, when a VIDEO went viral on youtube broadcasting that the lives of the ones in the video were in danger, that was how their true intention was laid bare.

#3 Why did Brother Eduardo’s brother posted a video on youtube broadcasting that their lives were in danger? When was this video taken?

Why was the video so well-made? Imagine, it was very sharp, there were even translations, and Brother Eduardo’s brother was well-dressed. What I’m asking is when did they start the production of this video? Was it planned or not?

An observation of one of the brethren:

I watched the video. Some things don't add up in the video. First of all the video was produced in away that a professional videographer put together. The video was done with nice presentation (pictures that go along with the words or statements) ...almost like a commercial. I need more evidence from Ka Angel and Sis. Tenny in order for me to be convinced with their claims of being abducted.
Other things that don't add up:
1. Ka Angel is wearing a crisp, newly ironed barong tagalog.
2. The place of where the video-taping occurred appears to be in a place where Ka Angel is residing. (the picture behind him of Ka Erdy and his wife).
3. Ka Angel's face is camera-ready and No signs of struggle
4. The statements/words of Ka Angel and Sis. Tenny are translated to English from original production of video-grapher
5. Sis. Tenny's plead for help is done in audio-recording. Show us your face in danger by taking pictures, which is easier to do than audio-recording. To make it realistic a video of her pleading for help would have been more believable. Therefore, Sis. Tenny's audio-recording can be suspected of false claims of abduction.
6. Ka Tenny introducing herself as the widow of Ka Erdy sounds like she reading a prepared scripts.
7. Ka Tenny's voice was flowing, articulate as if she is reading something 
Whoever produced this video is someone who has bad intention to the church administration. i don't understand why Ka Angel has become part of this.

#4 Why did they choose to post the video on youtube at a time after the brethren held the Thanksgiving services and before the Closing Centennial Celebration would take place at the Philippine Arena?

Are you not wondering and have you not thought about it that of all the dates, they could have staged it in January or just this June or maybe in August after the Church celebrates its anniversary.

Why did they perfectly timed it to be posted AFTER THE THANKSGIVING SERVICES AND BEFORE THE CHURCH CELEBRATION?

Could it be that they thought that Thanksgiving is very important to the brethren that is why they just let this pass? And they made a perfect timing to post it before the celebration at the Philippine Arena so that they may be able to divert the brethren from going to Bulacan, that is why they exerted much effort to urge the brethren to participate in a vigil that would be held at the front of their house?

So if they have already made the video before and they have just posted it now that Thanksgiving services were done and the Centennial Closing Celebration was yet to be held, then it would be such a perfect timing to divert the brethren?

#5 Why was there someone who displayed posters in their house saying that they are being held hostages that is why they need help, but Brother Eduardo’s brother suddenly admitted that they were not held hostages, that it was just a child’s joke?

Do you remember the posters that were displayed at the window of the Manalo family’s house?

Does it look like a CHILD WHO WAS JUST JOKING as the one who made that? And why do they not allow the police to enter their house? Could it be that one can find inside the house their accomplice who was responsible for the said placards? And why was it when media personnel amassed outside their house, instead of talking about the HOSTAGE TAKING and THREATS TO THEIR LIVES, the interviews were diverted to the ALLEGED CORRUPTION OF THE CHURCH COUNCIL, THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PHILIPPINE ARENA AND OTHERS?

Could it also be that they PLANNED to arouse the curiosity of the media personnel to keep them from leaving the vicinity, just to give ample time for the “brethren” to be gathered into a vigil at the front of their house? Could it be that they have just staged this, including the video to take advantage of the situation and use the opportunity to spread through MEDIA the allegations of Antonio Ebanghelista?

#6 There was a minister who stepped down from his office in California for not reading a circular letter. How then was a video of the incident caught through a cellphone?

If the minister wanted to step down from his duty as a minister because he could not bear reading the circular letter about the expulsion of Brother Eduardo’s family as well as Mr. Isaias Samson, we cannot do anything about that? But isn’t it puzzling, who among the brethren who attended the worship service would have the super power to foresee that the minister in their local congregation would do something like this? How could that member be able to take a video of what was happening inside the house of worship through a cellphone? How could that member be allowed to use a cellphone inside the house of worship to take a video DURING THE WORSHIP SERVICE?

I would have believed it to be genuine if the video was not continuous. For example, I did attend the worship service and coincidentally my phone was in my pocket. Then I suddenly felt like the minister was about to say something shocking to all, so I took out my phone immediately and take a video but it would not be continuous. Because I do not have the super power to foresee what will be happening. So I’m wondering how in the world was a CONTINUOUS VIDEO of Mr. Louie Cayayab’s speech taken?

Could it be that what he did was really planned and there was already a member who was instructed to take a video of the speech so that it would be uploaded on youtube?

#7 Why do they now have a video when Mr. Angel went to the Central Office in February 2015 to talk to Brother Eduardo but they were only sent home?

If the message of the video was true, that they only just wanted to talk to Brother Eduardo but they were only sent home, then WHY DID THEY DECIDE TO TAKE A VIDEO OF THE VISIT, and WHAT WAS IT FOR?

Could it be because they planned to use it in the future that in the instance the INC will deny that it did not forbid the family to talk to the Executive Minister, then that will be the time they will reveal the video to be used as an evidence?

If you are sincere about your intention to talk to Brother Eduardo, why do you need to take a video of your visit? Or maybe the reason that you went to the Central Office was just to TAKE A VIDEO of the incident to be used as an evidence in the future?

Now, go ahead, tell me that NO CONSPIRACY took place. THAT THIS SERIES OF ACTIONS  of theirs WAS NOT PLANNED. THAT ALL OF THESE WERE JUST PLAIN COINCIDENCE.

__________________________________________

However, are you aware that before this situation became more complicated, wherein this was even exposed to the MEDIA, we have already long exposed the true ploy of Antonio Ebanghelista’s group?

TO OVERTHROW THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE CHURCH; REPLACE THOSE WHO ARE IN THE CHURCH COUNCIL; REPLACE THE EXECUTIVE MINISTER; and much more, INCITE THE BRETHREN TO GO AGAINST THE CHURCH ADMINISTRATION.

And you yourselves should do the necessary contemplation if you really want to be on their side...

 LITO DE LUNA FRUTO

SHER LOCK

DANICA ROSALES

 KELLY ONG

 THEY EVEN CREATED A FANPAGE WHERE THEY DECLARED THAT THEY WANTED TO RESTORE THE IGLESIA NI CRISTO. DOESN’T THAT MEAN THAT THEY WANTED TO REPLACE THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE CHURCH? 

I really wanted to believe that it is not your intention to overthrow the Church Administration, that it is not your intention to cause divisions in the Church, and that it is not your intention to ruin the Church Of Christ.

WHAT IS AMUSING IS THAT, AFTER ALL OF THIS, AFTER DAMAGING THE CHURCH, THEN THAT WOULD BE WHEN YOU ASK FOR REPRIEVE AND TAKE A TURN FOR THE BETTER. BUT THE DISHONOR AND THE CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE YOU HAVE BROUGHT TO THE CHURCH COULD NEVER BE TAKEN BACK NO MATTER WHAT YOU WILL DO.

IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING THAT GOD IS ON YOUR SIDE? IS THAT WHY YOU ARE HOLDING RALLIES? IF YOU ALL WILL BE HIT BY LIGHTNING, I WOULD NEVER KNOW. YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH ANGER THE LORD GOD HAS FOR YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID. JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE, WHEN GOD TAKES REVENGE FOR HIS CHURCH, WAIT FOR THAT PUNISHMENT FOR YOU. HE WILL JUDGE YOU BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU DID.
