Church News: August 2011

This is the Church news special episode for INC's 97th anniversary, after watching the video im very impressed, because im surprised and amazed how the church buy properties left and right continuously abroad! Wow! Here's why:

1st time, i was amazed you know, i do not pretend to be, i just didnt expected that the church can actually gone far like this, SEE IN THE VIDEO?

Funny is it, that most nonmembers criticize our offerings where their chapels are being closed and sold to other, while we, continuously gave wholeheartedly, offerings to the church and the RESULT?

The Church is in phenomenal state of expanding, now on its 97th anniversary, the church has gone to 98 countries and territories around the globe!

Buying properties from Catholic and protestant denominations and sects, that being sold, yeah... WOW! its really amazing, especially if you will think the fact that this church came from a third world country--the Philippines!

Do you think this is just a work of MAN?

“…the Church of Christ in the Philippines has converted millions of people of various nationalities. The phenomenal growth and unchecked progress of evangelization have caught the imagination of many. Her achievements, both spiritual and temporal, are too marvelous to be considered as the work of man.”

Zoilo Galang, editor Encyclopedia of the Philippines Vol. XX Manila, Phil. C1958, p. 466

Ofcourse not! It is because of God:

“You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called from its farthest regions, And is said to you, ‘you are my servant, I have chosen you and have not cast you away: Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous hand’.” Isa. 41:9-10

Conclusion:

If the INC is only a work of MAN (Bro. Felix Manalo), can you give me any name of a church in the Philippines that is same phenomenal as the INC??? In terms of achievements and expansion? I know some, like El shaddai (movement, but still a catholic) and MCGI (but doesnt have chapels like what the INC have).

INC is undeniably successful, spite of difficulties in these times, you can NEVER hear a news like saying, an INC locale sold out, THERE WILL BE NONE!

The expenses of the church do not came from donations from the government, government officials, rich members and nonmembers, casino and gamblings, and so on.

It came from what you always criticize, from the OFFERINGS OF EVERY CHURCH MEMBER!

And the result of those offerings are clearly seen. The ministers do not hide and corrupt monies, the monies collected do not go only for the "Manalo family", because if that so, there will be no expensive and beautiful chapels here and abroad!

And so there will be new district and will be called South East Asia district.




All for the glory of God, the Father!



DARE TO CRITICIZE THE OFFERINGS AGAIN?
The result are already in your nose^^ are you blind?

Iglesia ni Cristo 97th Anniversary

Belated happy 97th anniversary to all Iglesia ni Cristo members!

Sorry because i cant access the internet because of the typhoon....
Here's a news about the church's anniversary:

Malacanang greets Iglesia ni Cristo on its 97th anniversary

MANILA, July 26 — Malacanang wishes Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) well on its 97th founding anniversary noting that it has given the country citizens who served the government well.

“Iglesia ni Cristo is a religious organization that has been with us for sometime and they have given this country citizens who served the government well,” Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said during the regular press briefing held in Malacanang on Tuesday.

INC is celebrating its founding anniversary on Wednesday.

“We wish them godspeed. We wish God will continue to bless their church and bless and guide their leaders to further their denomination,” Lacierda said.

INC was formally established on July 27, 1914. Its expansion continued under Minister Felix Ysagun Manalo.

As a church, the INC has spanned six continents, establishing over 5,000 Missions in 100 countries, making it truly a global church. (PNA)

You read it right!

INC is truly a GLOBAL CHURCH.


INC is not a Filipino Church only for Filipinos.
INC came from the Philippines and that doesnt mean it is only for FILIPINOS. If you have this kind of view then be ashamed, work out your common sense!

3 more years to go and its the centennial celebration of the INC!
What all are waiting for!

To all INC members:
Let's keep our faith unshaken and let's continue our church duties, and especially the services to God, because that's what's being a TRUE member is all about. Its not time for you to have cold faith, its not time for you to be expelled in the church, its not time for you to doubt about the church, ITS TIME FOR YOU TO GET UP, and share the FAITH...

Be a light to those in darkness!




Note:
If you read Anti-INC articles again, every church's anniversary, well dont be surprised, they cant help theirselves but to secretly admire and amazed about the phenomenal growth of the church, that's why they say lies on their posts.

For example, if your friend is more noticed by your classmates, and because youre the jealous one, ofcourse you will do something unappropriate for you to have your classmate's attention. That's what happens between the INC and the jealous nonmembers, only because the INC was in the spotlight, then it is also their time to counter that. Remember, a liar deceives many!

So if youre convinced with their anti-INC articles/dirty tactics, well you will not notice that you are DECEIVED!

be alarmed! they are everywhere!
