Philippine Arena inauguration

The inauguration of the "Ciudad de Victoria" (City of Victory) was led by Pres. Noynoy Aquino and Bro. Eduardo Manalo, the executive Minister of the Iglesia ni Cristo.

Some government officials and celebrities are also there to witness the event. The church will hold a special worship service in the arena in July 27 and will be led by Bro. Eduardo Manalo, a million members are expected to come.

The arena, which was built at the cost of more than $200 million or P7.8 billion, has a seating capacity of 50,000 making it the biggest arena in the world. Its legal owner is the New Era University.

“Kaya nga natin tinawag na Philippine Arena. Kung pag-aari man ng Iglesia ito, ang makikinabang, ang Pilipino,” Bro. Glicerio Santos Jr. (That is why it is called Philippine Arena. Even if this is owned by the Iglesia ni Cristo, Filipinos will benefit from it.)

Wow, truly amazing! I just cant wait what other church projects are about to come before the centennial. And i will grab this opportunity this time for you to know what i wanted to campaign, and i want your HELP to make this happen, this is to counter disinformation to INC of nonmembers here in the web. So please brethren, this is all for the upcoming centennial, because as what i have said, im expecting that in that time, thousands of people will become curious about the INC and of course they will search it here in the web because i know the INC will be in the news worldwide.

If you notice, there are many anti-INC websites, blogs and etc that contained false informations created by jealous nonmembers for those who doesnt have knowledge in the INC will have bad impression to the Church.

PLEASE CREATE A BLOG!

Create a blog for the church that contains TRUE INFO's that they should know about the INC. For example, What is INC? Who are we? What are the projects of INC? and etc. This is purposed to bring RIGHT INFORMATIONS about the Iglesia ni Cristo, this is not for us to preach, but to give them the TRUE KNOWLEDGE about our beliefs, who we really are and what is the INC now. If you will help me on this, i will be thankful and i want to give you some advice:

-disable comments on your blog, or if you want viewers to comment, strictly moderate it.
-title your blog to iglesia ni cristo or put the name iglesia ni cristo in your URL, for example like what i did to this blog, i renamed it to readmeiglesianicristo.blogspot.com
-As you titled it to iglesia ni cristo, be sure to tell in your blog that you are just a member, you are not a representative of the church or authorized, tell them your blog is unofficial blog of the church.
-If you have no such knowledge to defend the church and etc just make posts about the INC showing true infos, you can avoid or not to do any article on defending our faith, i hope you get my point. But you can post articles from the Pasugo.
-you can make a blog here at www.blogger.com it is my best choice, but you can also try other like wordpress, tumbler and etc.
- List links of websites/blogs that contains true infos about the INC, like this blog.
-if you had created a blog, please inform me so i can list your blog on INC links.

This is not too early, this is the right time to do this, because your blog will not immediately be listed on search engines like Google, yahoo and so on, it will need time, like a year or two for your blog to be visible and on the said search engines, and like what ive said its just a perfect time because if you make a blog now, surely it will become visible on 2014, in the church's centennial.

I want your HELP and SUPPORT brethren, let us do this for the Church!^^

Trending now: Philippine Arena

Location	Bocaue, Bulacan, Philippines
Coordinates	14.796128 N,120.954666 E
Broke ground	August 17, 2011
Owner	Iglesia Ni Cristo
Construction cost	US$213 Million
Architect	Populous
Capacity	50,000 (can be maximized up to 55,000)

We all know about the news of building the biggest indoor arena in the world by 2014 and we also know the owner of this big project, none other that the Iglesia ni Cristo.

Nonmembers are shocked, REALLY! Especially to those who knows about the INC. But not only them, but also the nonmembers from other countries, they were all amazed that the biggest indoor arena will be constructed in the Philippines, from a 3rd world country.

Other asked, why it is from the INC? why not from the wealthiest Christian religion in the world (Roman Catholic Church)?

As what ive expected, numerous comments from nonmembers were published in the internet, and mostly are jealous.


How can i say?

Because most are negative comments and related to the church, they attack ther church using old tactics like:

1. why not donate it from the poor? there is so many people experiencing hunger.
2. where did the "manalo family" get the money? from the government officials?
3. most of their members are poor, why not give it to them instead of building such things?
4. when judgment day comes, all of what we see here, including buildings and so on will be vanished, and god is not glorified with these!

Those can be considered opinions from uneducated and unintelligent people.


If those are correct then may i ask some questions?

1. why do you need to work and earn some money for your future? why not donate it to the poor?
2. why the doctors need to heal those who are sick and have diseases if they will also die someday?
3. why do you need to build your house in all of your best if when the judgment day comes, it will be destroyed?

See? Do you get my point?


This is what im worried about, i do not know if i will become happy or sad when the time comes that the project is finished. Are we INC members ready to face the devils? Im sorry, those detractors? That are so jealous and will do some efforts just to destroy the church?

The construction just begun and what will happen if 2014 comes? Are we ready to face the world? Because i know that this event will be published in all newspapers in the country and in other countries, are we ready to face them, to introduce them the TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST?


Lets just see what will happen...


After reading comments and news from the internet about the construction of to be the biggest dome arena in the world, i came again in the blog of Catholicdefender2000, i will about to title this post to "A Catholic defender spreads misleading informations!"


A jealous Catholic Defender that is really of-the-devil
Why? Let us examine those mislead informations he is spreading using his of-the-devil blog(red, his post):

Having huge amount of monies flowing into the Manalo's bank accounts under the name of the Iglesia ni Cristo corporation coming from its members who are OBLIGED to give portion of their hard-earned salaries,

Can you give us any proofs that the church OBLIGE its members to give offerings in the church?
Ofcourse youll not, because you are just saying a big big LIE!

In fact, it is precisely incorrect to say it's a "Philippine Arena" when only a limited few hundred thousand to a million Filipinos can use the said dome while the rest of the Filipinos cannot use it just because they are non-INC members.

Statistics show that 80% of the 97 million total population of the Philippines since 2010 (in other words, there are 77.6 million Catholics in the Philippines) are barred from using this facilities and yet the dome is named "Philippine Arena". What for?

How many Filipinos can use this "Philippine Arena"?... Therefore, this dome should be rightfully called the IGLESIA NI CRISTO ARENA! Di ba mahilig silang magnakaw ng pangalan ng may pangalan? Dapat ipangalan na lang nila sa kanilang iglesia at huwag sa buong Pilipinas ang kanilang dome. Tutal SA KANILA naman talaga itong dome na ito eh.

He even have the guts to say "In FACT" while saying his "incorrect" understanding of reading news. He is not aware that the "Philippine Arena" is not just for the INC, but for the Philippines as well, that's why it is called "Philippine Arena" because it is also dedicated and for the Philippines!

You know, if the INC is really selfish then it will be just name "INC ARENA" so that all credits and attention will be to the INC!

The no.1 purpose of these projects are all for the centennial celebration of the INC. Now you KNOW!

About the lies youre spreading, well be EMBARRASSED!

The arena is designed as an auditorium. It will hold major church gatherings. It will also operate as a multi-use sports and concert venue, capable of holding a range of events, from boxing and basketball, to live music performances.
According to INC Executive Minister, Bro. Eduardo V. Manalo, the Philippine Arena can be used not only by the Church but by the public in general whether for local or international events. It can also host a number of regional sporting events such as SEA Games and Asian Games since the New Era University Sports Complex is also being constructed nearby. source: wikipedia

And here:

While the arena will hold major church gatherings, it will also operate as a multi-use sports and concert venue, capable of holding a range of events, from boxing and basketball, to live music performances. source: populous.com

SEE? That's why we should not trust this Catholic defender, and he should be ashamed to himself as he bears that name of his beloved church as a username while doing evil things just to attack the INC! Pity to you, is that what you learned from your church? IM NOT SURPRISED!

How much had the INC donated to international charitable agencies?

How much charity donated in monies did the INC donate in its almost 100 year existence?

He is concern to the poor, but not concerned about the archbishops and bishops that received cars from gambling, from PCSO, inshort from the money of the FILIPINOS!

And yet not even half of it's proceeds will go to the poorest of the poor. Their centennial celebration is giving glory to the INC as a cult and its founder Felix Manalo's clan.

We do not give offerings to the church just for the church give it to the poor. And the achievements of the INC is always dedicated of our God-the father because the INC will not attain all of these if he is not with us. Who can think that the most persecuted religion in the philippines, will have these kind of achievements? Can even the Catholic Church in the country can do what the INC does?^^ I do not intend to compare, because its the work of dumb people.

Abroad, donations were channeled through their own Pinoy Punong Ministro assigned in certain localities and then distributed it first to its own members who may have been affected and then the remaining part is for affected "apostates" (that is non INC members).

Wrong, monies collected in your church are called DONATIONS because those are just "excess" monies from your members, whereas in the INC, it is called OFFERINGS because it came from our heart without any dictation of someone and without forcing us to give a fix amount. The INC do not help by giving people money, there is more than MONEY called giving your helping hand.

You surely taking about "Lingap sa Mamamayan" where members and nonmembers benefits to that event.

Where they've got their huge money?

We are not sure. Most probably it's from the many businesses of the INC and the INC itself as a corporation sole.... ...But again, where did they get those huge amount of money buying properties here and abroad?

All the money that used in construction of magnificent houses of worship, and all expenses of the church especially this biggest project of the INC came from the voluntary offerings of the members of the Church of Christ. AMAZING ISNT IT? Especially most people like you say that the monies collected are corrupted by the ministers especially "just go to" the manalo family.

Wait, do you know the news? that the origin of the use of CORPORATION SOLE came from the Catholic Church itself???^^

How about the INC exclusive residence? It is called "CIUDAD DE VICTORIA" (City of Victory). I thought they hated Spain for spreading Catholicism in the Philipipnes. Why they are using SPANISH language to name their exclusive INC Village? Hypocrites!

Any proofs about your claim? No proofs means WRONG.

Finally, we are in the last part of his post...

But i just want to share this funny MISTAKE of this boastful and jealous catholic defender, i am not that sure if he use a correct word but its just that the word he use is not the correct term.

He said "SITTERS/SITTING" instead of "seaters/seating".

Lets check whats the meaning of SITTER.

n.

1. One that sits, especially:

a. A person who cares for young children when the parents are not home; a babysitter.

b. A person who poses or models, as for a portrait.

2. A brooding hen.
source: freedictionary.com

HAHAHAHAHA what do he mean by that? Do you now believe me that he spread wrong infos specially wrong terms? HAHAHAHAHA

By the way, Let's count his MISTAKES!

50,000 sitters(1)

How many members? From official records they are a few hundred to one million?

But estimates says they are between 4-10 million-- a number that has been repeatedly claimed for the past 10 years.

Fifty thousand sitting(2) capacity implies they are expecting ONLY 50,000± members attending their 100th year anniversary in 2014-- short of 950,000 people more.

The Iglesia ni Cristo dome is being compared to the Madison Square Garden in New York which has sitting(3) capacity of only sit 20,000 people, while the Staples Center in Los Angeles has a capacity of 21,000.

Why these domes in the US has only this much? It's because 20,000 sitting(4) capacity is enough for a concert shows or boxing bouts.

But religious Centennial anniversary celebrations having only 50,000 sitting(5) capacity can only send a wrong signal to those who use their calculations that a million member cannot fit in an arena that has only 50,000 capacity....

How many total members do the INC has?

Four to 10 million? Fifty thousand sitters(6) cannot accommodate that huge amount even you are expert in mathematical computation.

A total of 6 mistakes, HAHAHA and he has the guts to attack the INC with his post with many ERROR?

He is only just ONE of those jealous nonmembers who does have time to attack the INC instead of spending their time to do good.


I also read some comments came from his avid fans:

Anonymous said...

It is real that INC are very boastful.. During their 97th yr anniversary, they showed the acquired properties. Today, they propose to build a dome to show that they are rich due the obligated 10% tithes from their members and contribution from elections.. The whole properties of INC cannot surpass the value of the sistine chapel in Vatican.. thanks and more power.

We are boastful of what? Do we stepped on something that's why most of their comments are like this? Tsk Tsk... WRONG. there is no tithing in the INC, i know one, the Mormon Church but not the INC. That's what im talking about, dumb people will always compare the achievements of the INC and of the RCC!^^

yun ang INC, United daw... unity sa paggawa ng kasalanan --e.g. " BLOC VOTING "deprivation of freedom to choose-- bakit ang " elightenment na galing sa Panginoon ay na coconfine ba sa mga ministro kung sinong kandidato ang pipiliin? the reason para makahanap ng pera para pambili ng properties, ha ha ha.. When they endorsed Mar Roxas for Vice President with the Support of Pastor Quiboly, Nanalo ba sya? no

Again and again, the issue on the Block Voting... Is there something new?^^ He allege that the INC take money from the government officials in exchange of support... HAHAHA WRONG. It is the Catholic Church who accepts money from the politicians, gamblings and so on every now and then! As early as the time of Constantine on your church, do you know that thing? That Constantine give all the privilege to your beloved church?^^

The INC doesnt perform block voting just to assure the win of a particular candidate, we do that because it is a commandment that is written in the bible... about the UNITY...



I wonder:

Why is that for example if that project is owned by the government, or of another religion, or of the Catholic Church, and so on except the INC, they will rejoice and be glad?

But when they got the news that it is owned by the INC, positive reactions are changed.

Is the INC and its members do something for it to deserve? Or Does the INC deserve to be treated like this by nonmembers?

Does the INC and members kill thousands of people like what happened in the Inquisition?

Does the INC and members always connected with controversies like what happened to the archbishops and bishops that received cars from PAGCOR?

Does the INC and members do something evil like forcing nonmembers to join the church and so on?

If not, why is that?

Is it because the INC is the REAL CHURCH OF CHRIST thats why many is jealous?


YES^^

"The Iglesia ni Cristo-Church of Christ (INC) is making another history by developing this scores of hectares of barren farmland into the site of its Centennial Project "Ciudad de Victoria", literally means "City of Victory", worth more than a whooping US$175 Million.

This will be another Iglesia ni Cristo Complex that will be the site of the soon-to-be largest domed arena in the world- the Philippine Arena. The Philippine Arena has a 50 thousand seating capacity. Also, other facilities such as New Era University Sports Complex, EVM Convention Center, New Era University-Bocaue Campus, EGM Medical Center, Music Center, plus housing units or even a house of worship will be constructed in this site in a less than 30-month period or would be finished in early months of 2014.

Korean builder strives to become one of the world’s 100 largest construction firms

Hanwha Engineering and Construction Corp. began work on the world’s largest domed arena in the Philippines on Thursday.

The work for the $175 million contract, signed on Aug. 4, got underway in a ceremony attended by Hanwha E&C officials including vice chairman Kim Hyun-chung and those from the Filipino Christian organization Iglesia Ni Cristo that issued the contract.

The facility located near Manila, named the Philippine Arena, will be fitted with 50,000 seats and its domed roof will be nearly 36,000 square meters, making it the world’s largest domed arena, the company said.

Hanwha E&C said that the work will be carried out over 30 months to be finished early 2014.

“By winning this contract for building the world’s largest dome arena, the company was able to prove its technological capabilities and the ability to carry out overseas projects,” Kim said in a statement. The company said that in the biddings for the contract, it competed with China’s Jiangsu International and the Philippines’ largest construction company EEI Corp. The project will be conducted in design-build process in which the contractor is responsible for all related processes from designing to building the facility, the company said.

“As the bridgehead for the Southeast Asian market, the project is expected to bring opportunities for more civil engineering and construction projects in the region.”

The project opens a new market for Hanwha E&C, which has focused mostly on the Middle Eastern markets, as it drives to become one of the world’s 100 largest construction companies.

Earlier this year Hanwha Engineering and Construction announced plans to become one of the world’s top 100 builders by 2015 with an annual sales figure of 5 trillion won ($4.65 billion), and win contracts worth 7 trillion won in that year.

The plans also revealed that the company will diversify its overseas portfolio to include civil engineering projects, and to expand into solar power and other renewable energy businesses.

Also as part of the plans, the company hopes to expand its overseas generated income by more than 20 percent each year with the aim of raising 40 percent of its annual revenues from overseas sources by 2015.

In the Middle East, Hanwha E&C has made significant headway this year, winning a series of contracts including an urban development project in Iraq.

The contract, issued by Iraq’s National Investment Commission, is valued at $7.25 billion, making it the largest overseas construction project to be won by a Korean construction firm.

Under the contract, Hanwha Engineering and Construction will build a planned town at a location 25 kilometers east of central Baghdad. The town will be built over an area of 1,830 hectares and contain 100,000 new homes, the company said.

I know what would be the reaction of jealous nonmembers, they will say, "INC spends so much on these buildings, why not give the money to charities and poors?" or "That's the proof that Manalo family is rich!"

Eheemm...

This is a long accusation of the jealous nonmembers, they cant help their selves but to be amazed that INC gone far not as what they expected that it will be vanished. First of all, the offerings collected go to the INC not to the Manalo family, second, we do not give offerings for it to be spent ONLY to charities and give it to the poor. the bible tells us:

“Now it happened after this that Joash set his heart on repairing the house of the LORD. Then he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that you do it quickly.” However the Levites did not do it quickly.” II Chr. 24:4-5
