Monument of the Prophet Elijah in Caesarea, Israel. The Jews truly build Monuments for the Men of God
Anonymous said...
2 Kings 23: 24 Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.
King Josiah followed what is written in the book of the Lord, and broke, burn, all the highplace altars and images.
2 Kings 23: 17Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Bethel.
18And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
King Josiah allowed that sepulcher to be untouched as well as the bones, but it doesnt mean that Lord Jesus allowed us to make monument/images/idols of good men of God and kneel before them.
The king said let it be alone, he does not said, "ok, let put decoration on it and kneel before his monument." Which we are doing for more than 400 years..we're kneeling on the idols...put some flowers and fragrance. It was also written in catholic books that relics, personal things of saints be worshipped.
Idols are abominable with God's sight,
Leviticus 26:1 Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.
If it is abominable with God, it is as well with Lord Jesus Christ.
Good day and thanks for your blogging.

[King Josiah allowed that sepulcher to be untouched as well as the bones,]
THE EVIL WITH YOU IS THAT YOU DO NOT ALLOW. KING JOSIAH AND THE FAITHFUL SERVANTS OF GOD ALLOWED THE MONUMENTS OF THE GOOD AND THE HOLY PEOPLE OR THE SAINTS BUT IN YOUR DEMONIC RELIGION YOU DO NOT ALLOW IT. WE CATHOLICS ALLOW THOSE MONUMENTS. YOU EVEN PROHIBIT THE EXISTENCE OF THOSE MONUMENTS.
[but it doesnt mean that Lord Jesus allowed us to make monument/images/idols of good men of God and kneel before them.]
THAT IS JUST YOUR HALLUCINATION. READ YOUR THE VERSES AGAIN ONE BY ONE PIECE BY PIECE. THERE IS NO PROHIBITION OF HONORING THOSE MONUMENTS. THERE IS NO COMMAND OF 'DO NOT KNEEL BEFORE THE MONUMENTS OF THE PROPHETS AND THE SAINTS'. THAT IS YOUR INVENTED DOCTRINE WHICH IS NOT SUPPORTED BY THE BIBLICAT TEXT.
BESIDES, YOUR STATEMENT IS DECEPTIVE: "idols of good men of God". THIS STATEMENT IS SATANIC. THE TERM IDOLS ARE PROPER FOR THOSE FALSE GODS AND NOT REFERRED TO THE GOOD MEN OF GOD SUCH AS THE PATRIARCHS AND THE PROPHETS, THE APOSTLES, EVANGELISTS, ETC.
YOU DEMONICALLY TWISTED THE TERM SO THAT THOSE IMAGES CAN SUIT INTO THE VERSES CONDEMNING IDOLS. O NO, NO, NO... YOUR DECEPTION IS NOTICED.
FOR YOUR INOFORMATION, IN THE BIBLE KNEELING IS NOT GIVEN TO GOD ALONE. IT CAN BE DONE TO SACRED THINGS OR HOLY PEOPLE:
2 King 1:13 "And again he sent the captain of a third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and FELL ON HIS KNEES before Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy sight."
The Captain of the guard fell on his knees before the prophet Elijah. Elijah of course is NOT GOD if you don't know. He is a human person.
2 Kings 4:37 "Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; and she took up her son, and went out."
The Shunnamite woman fell down and bowed to prophet Elisha. Elisha is NOT GOD but another prophet of God, a human being.
Is this limited to human persons? No, it can also be done to things considered as Sacred and Holy to God:
Joshua 7:6 "And Joshua rent his clothes, and FELL TO THE EARTH upon his face before THE ARK OF THE LORD until the eventide, he and the elders of Israel, and put dust upon their heads."
Joshua fell on the ground with deep bow his head touching the ground before the ARK OF THE COVENANT. We all know that the Ark of the Covenant is made of Acacia wood and covered with God. And it is also decorated with two large statutes of Cherubims. Then, it is not evil to kneel or bow down to a decorated images.
1 Kings 8:54 And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before THE ALTAR of the LORD, from KNEELING ON HIS KNEES with his hands spread up to heaven.
Here Solomon knelt before the Altar.
THE PROBLEM WITH YOU IS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE ALTARS, YOU DON'T HAVE MONUMENTS AND YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO HONOR THE SAINTS OF GOD. BUILDING MONUMENTS, MAKING SACRED IMAGES AND BOWING OR KNEELING TO THEIR GRAVES AND MONUMENTS ARE HUMAN MANIFESTATIONS OF RESPECT AS WELL AS OF HONOR. THE SAINTS OF GOD MUST BE HONORED. YOU ARE NOT DOING THAT BECAUSE YOU STUPIDLY THINK THAT BOWING, KNEELING, ETC. ARE EXCLUSIVE OF GOD ALONE:
Leviticus 19:32 "Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and HONOUR the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the LORD."
THE OLD PEOPLE MUST BE HONORED. THAT IS WHY CATHOLICS KISS THEIR HANDS, WE BOW TO THE OLD PEOPLE. That is an honour proper for an old person and does not mean that he is God. THE BORN AGAIN, THE BAPTISTS IN THE UNITED STATES ARE NOT HONORING THEIR OLD FOLKS... THEY SEND THEM TO HOME FOR THE AGED AND LATER ON WHEN THEY ARE USELESS THEY PRACTICE EUTHANASIA BY INJECTING THEM POISONOUS INJECTIONS.
1 Samuel 2:30 "Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that HONOUR ME I will HONOUR, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed."
THOSE WHO HONORED GOD HE SHALL HONOR. THUS, THE PEOPLE OF GOD ARE HONORING THE PROPHETS, THE APOSTLES, THE SAINTS WHO HAVE HONORED GOD, ESPECIALLY MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS. SINCE THEY ARE HONORED BY GOD THEN WE ARE ALSO HONORING THEM WITH MONUMENTS. OF COURSE MONUMENTS ARE SPECIALLY DECORATED. IF IT IS NOT SPECIALLY DECORATED THEN IT IS NOT A MONUMENT IT IS AN ORDINARY THING. MONUMENTS ARE SPECIAL. THEY ARE BEAUTIFIED. AND THEY ARE SPECIALLY KEPT... WITH FLOWERS, GUARDS, FOUNTAINS, LIGHTS, ETC.
IF PEOPLE WANTS TO BOW BEFORE THEM THEY CAN DO SO AND INDEED ARE BOWING OR KNEELING IN FRONT OF THE MONUMENTS OF THE GREATS, ESPECIALLY THE SAINTS BECAUSE THEY HAVE DONE A LOT OF GOOD THINGS.
THE PROBLEM WITH YOU IS THAT YOUR MIND AND HEART IS DARKENED BY EVIL MALICE.
[The king said let it be alone, he does not said, "ok, let put decoration on it and kneel before his monument."]
THERE IS NO STATEMENT THEREIN THAT DECORATING THE MONUMENTS IS WRONG. THE REASON WHY IT IS A MONUMENT BECAUSE IT IS DECORATED. NO MONUMENT WITHOUT SPECIAL DECORATIONS WHETHER IT IS A MONUMENT TO GEN. MCARTHUR OR PRES. LINCOLN OR NATIONAL HERO JOSE RIZAL AND NINOY AQUINO OR SAINTS LIKE DAVID, ABRAHAM, MOISES AND OTHERS. THEY ARE ALWAYS DECORATED... AMONG ALL PEOPLES AND ALL CULTURES. ONLY THE EVIL MINDED INDIVIDUAL LIKE YOU CONSIDER IT AS EVIL. THE EVIL IS NOT IN THE DECORATIONS BUT IN YOUR MIND.
[Which we are doing for more than 400 years.]
I EXPECT THAT YOU ARE EXPRESSING THAT 'WE' FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR COHORTS. WE DO NOT BELONG TO THE SAME FAITH AND THEREFORE WE ARE NOT WORSHIPPING TOGETHER.
[.we're kneeling on the idols..]
O NO, NO, NO... WE ARE NOT KNEELING ON THE IDOLS. WE CATHOLICS DESTROYED THE IDOLS AND THE ANITOS OF OUR ANCESTORS. WE ARE KNEELING ON THE ALTAR OF GOD, THE SACRED IMAGES AND THE MONUMENTS OF OUR SAINTS.
[.put some flowers and fragrance.]
PUTTING FLOWERS IS AN EXPRESSION OF LOVE, AFFECTION AND HONOR TO THOSE WHO HAVE DONE GREAT THINGS FOR OUR FAITH AND IN OUR COUNTRY.
WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT SAYS 'PUTTING FLOWERS ON MONUMENTS OF SAINTS, NATIONAL HEROES AND FORMER PRESIDENTS ARE EVIL?' LET ME SEE IF YOU CAN GIVE.
[It was also written in catholic books that relics, personal things of saints be worshipped.]
CITATION PLEASE. THERE IS NO SUCH THING WRITTEN IN CATHOLIC BOOKS. I AM A CATHOLIC AND I HAVE SEVERAL CATHOLIC BOOKS I HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING OF THAT SORT.
[Idols are abominable with God's sight,]
IDOLS ARE ABOMINABLE IN GOD'S SIGHT AND IN CATHOLIC SIGHT. THAT IS WHY WE DESTROYED THE IMAGES OF JUPITER, HERA, ATHENA, POSEIDON, ETC. IN ROME. WE ALSO DESTROYED THE TEMPLES OF ISIS AND OSIRIS IN EGYPT AND THE IDOLS OF THE DRUIDS. WE, CATHOLICS, WERE THE ONES WHO DID IT NOT THE MANALOS, SORIANO, BORN AGAIN, BAPTISTS AND THEIR LIKES. IT IS US WHO DID IT.
OUR IMAGES ARE NOT IDOLS BUT IMAGES OF SAINTS AND ANGELS. THEY ARE NOT IDOLS. MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS IS THE MOTHER OF JESUS NOT IDOLS AS YOU STUPIDLY INSINUATE.
[Leviticus 26:1 Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.]
WE DON'T HAVE IDOLS. WE ONLY HAVE SACRED IMAGES LIKE THOSE PRESENT IN THE MEETING TENT AND THE TEMPLE OF GOD:
Exodus 25:18-21 And thou shalt make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work shalt thou make them, at the two ends of the mercy–seat. And make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end: of one piece with the mercy–seat shall ye make the cherubim on the two ends thereof. And the cherubim shall spread out their wings on high, covering the mercy–seat with their wings, with their faces one to another; toward the mercy–seat shall the faces of the cherubim be. And thou shalt put the mercy–seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
SEE, THE LORD COMMANDED MOSES TO MAKE TWO GRAVEN IMAGES... TWO GOLDEN STATUES OF CHERUBIMS WHO ARE CREATURES OF HEAVEN. THEN HE ORDERED THEM TO BE PUT ON THE SEAT OF MERCY. AND GOD WILL MEET MOSES AND THE AARON IN THE MIDDLE OF THESE GRAVEN IMAGES:
Exodus 25:22 "And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy–seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel."
YOU SEE, NOT ALL GRAVEN IMAGES ARE ABOMINABLE TO THE LORD. THESE STATUES ARE EVEN USED BY GOD AS INTRUMENTS FOR HIS PRESENCE BEFORE HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE.
HERE ARE MORE PASSAGES SHOWING GOD'S COMMAND TO PUT IMAGES IN THE TEMPLE AND IN THE MEETING TENT:
The Bible does not forbid image-making absolutely because God Himself commanded His people to make Images for His Holy Temple, Altar & Sanctuaries.
Exodus 25:18-19 God commanded Moses to make statues of the Cherubims (Angels). [37:1-9/1 Kings 6:23-28/2 Chronicles 3:10-13/5:8].
Exodus 25:33-36 Almond Flowers and Fruits in the Candelabra of the Holy Tent. [37:17-21]
Exodus 26:1,31 Curtains of the Tabernacle are embroidered with Images of Cherubims. [36:8,35]
Exodus 28:33-34 Images of Pomegranate Fruits (Granada) & Bells in the ‘holy garment’ of priests [v.2] to be used in serving at the ‘holy place’ [v. 35]. [37:17-22/39:24-27]
Exodus 39:14 Engraved image of a Signet
Exodus 39: 15 Image of Chains in breastplate of priests
1 Kings 6:18 Cedar of the interior of the Temple was carved with Knops and Open Flowers.
1 Kings 6:29 The Temple Walls were carved with figures of Cherubims, Palm Trees & Open Flowers.
1 Kings 6:32 The two doors of the Temple were carved with Cherubims, Palm Trees & Open Flowers [v.35]
1 Kings 7:18-20,22 The capitals on top of the columns of the Temple were designed with Pomegranates and Lily flowers. Also of Knops [v. 24].
1 Kings 7:25 Twelve Statues of Bulls [v. 44]. [2 Chronicles 4:3-4].
1 Kings 7:26 The water basin is formed like a Cup with Flowers of Lilies. [2 Chron 4:5].
1 Kings 7:29 Images of Lions, Oxens & Cherubims on bases.
1 Kings 7:30 The bases has Four Brazen Wheels [v. 32].
1 Kings 7:42 Pomegranates fruits
1 Kings 7:49 Flowers, lamps and tongs of gold [2 Chronincles 4:21]
2 Chronicles 3:5 The ceiling of the Temple was adored with Images of Fir Tree, Palm Trees & Chains.
2 Chronicles 3:7 The Temple doors are adorned with the engraved Cherubims.
2 Chronicles 3:14 Temple veils are adorned with Cherubims.
2 Chronicles 3:16 The top of the Temple pillars are designed with Chains & a hundred Pomegranates (Granada).
2 Chronicles 4:13 Four hundred Pomegranates (Granada) forming Two Wreaths to cover the capitals upon pillars.
Ezekiel 41:18-20 Ezekiel describes graven images in the temple consisting of carved likenesses of Cherubims with faces of Lions and Men. [These are similar to the images of the angels and saints in many Catholic churches.] Also images of Palm Trees.
GOD ORDERED MOSES AND SOLOMON TO PUT GRAVEN IMAGES IN THE TEMPLE, ALTARS, SANCTUARIES AND HOLY OF HOLIES.
[If it is abominable with God, it is as well with Lord Jesus Christ.]
IDOLS ARE ABOMINABLE WITH GOD, WITH THE LORD JESUS AND WITH US CATHOLICS. BUT SACRED IMAGES AS SHOWN BY THE PASSAGES ABOVE ARE WILLED BY GOD. THEN JESUS ACCEPTED THEM WHEN HE WAS WORSHIPPING THE TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM WHICH WAS FULL OF THESE IMAGES AND SO WE HAVE IMAGES IN OUR HOUSES OF WORSHIP. AND LIKE KING JOSIAH WE HAVE MONUMENTS OF THE MEN AND WOMEN OF GOD.
[Good day and thanks for your blogging.]
GOOD DAY TO YOU TOO.

ReplyDeleteHello po Father. I am your blog fan po. I daily consult your very beautiful and awesome blog and as i read my love for the Church is always kindled and seems increasing. Thanks po. Eto po pakay ko. May nakita po akong mga Pasugo sa bahay namin at nakabasa po ako ng mga anti-Catholic teachings dito ng INC. Tulungan nyo po ako:
1. PASUGO April 2004, pg. 16: Kasaysayan ang nagpapatotoo na ang pagkakalikha ng aral na si Cristo ay Dios ay nag-ugat sa kagustuhan ni Emperador Constantino na mapanatili ang kapayapaan ng kaniyang imperyo.
2. Same issue, pg. 24: Explicitly or implicitly, there is nothing in the Bible that teaches God as a Trinity. (citations: The Teachings of Christ: A Catholic Catechism for Adults, p. 177; Full Christianity: A Catholic Response to Fundamental Questions, p. 25)
3. PASUGO Jan. 2004, p. 33ff: (Regarding the Logos in John 1): What was with God in the beginning was His concept or plan or idea (logos) about the Christ who would be coming to the world. The term logos does not refer to someone who was co-existing with God in the beginning.
Christ existed only when he was born. He had no prior existence.
The word "God" in the third clause of John 1:1 is not a noun but an adjective... What does it mean that the logos was divine? It means that the word of God is with power... The concept of incarnation grossly violates the biblical teaching concerning the immutability of God.
4. PASUGO, Nov. 2003 p. 16 Dapat bang ipagmisa ang mga patay?: Ayon sa Biblia (Ecclesiastes 9:5-6), ang patay ay wala nang anumang bahagi pa sa anumang ginagawa sa ilalim ng araw. Kaya ang mga patay ay walang anumang pakinabang na nakukuha mula sa mga panalanging ginagawa para sa kanila... Ang totoo ay ni wala tayong mababasang purgatoryo sa Biblia... Ang aral tungkol sa Misa at purgatoryo ay inembento lamang o nilikha lamang ng Iglesia Katolika (AD 593).
PART II
ReplyDelete5. PASUGO, Aug. 2004. "Who is the True God according to 1 John 5:20?": "The Greek of 5:20 has only "the true (one)" and reads literally: "we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding so that we know the true (one) and we are in the true (one), in his Son Jesus Christ. This (one) is the true God and eternal life. It is clear from this that the true (one) is God throughout. Christ is his Son. In the final sentence "this" (one) most natuarally refers still to God, not to Christ, as some have suggested." (The Johannine Epistles, William Loader). The true God in 1 John 5:20 could not be the Son or Christ, who was sent by the Father.
6. PASUGO, OCt. 2000, The Folly of the Belief in Papal Infallibility, pg. 28ff.: History is so full of instances in which the Pope is seen to have erred: Pope Stephen put to trial for heresy the rotting cadaver of Pope Formosus, Pope Paul V declared the Copernican theory to be false, heretical and contrary to the word of God, Pope Urban VIII condemned Galileo... Is it true that Mary was conceived without sin as pronounced ex cathedra by Pope Pius IX? The gospel states that all men sinned except Christ (Rom. 3:23, 1 Pet 2:21-22) Thus Pope Pius IX lied, erred, ex cathedra! Is it true that Mary was assumed, body and soul, into heaven as pronounced ex cathedra by Pope Pius XII? Is it true therefore that Mary is in heaven? The Bible records only three men to be in heaven, namely Enoch (Gn 5:24; Heb 11:5), Elijah (2 Kg 2:11), and Christ (Mk 16:19). There is no mention of any woman being in heaven. Mary...suffered the lot of all men (Gn 3:17-19). Thus Pope Pius XII lied, erred, ex cathedra! Is it true that the Popes do not err in the making of saints! Such a claim is false for the same reasons that it is false to claim that Mary is already in heaven. Besides, there were about 200 saints - among them St. Christopher, St. Valentine, St. Nicholas, St. George, and St. Patrick - who were stricken from the list of saints (Time Magazine, May 16, 1969). This means that the Popes who pronounced them saints erred. They lied ex cathedra 200 times!
7. PASUGO, Feb. 2004 "Kung Paano nila nilikha ang aral na si Cristo ay Dios" pg 21ff: Sa mga tinawag na apostolic fathers, mga manunulat sa Iglesia pagkatapos ng mga apostol, tanging si Ignacio lamang ang nagturo na si Cristo ay diyos subalit ang aral na ito ay tinutulan hanggang sa ika-4 na siglo... Sinasasabi rin ng manunulat na paring Jesuita na sa unti-unting pagbalangkas ng Simbahang Katoliko ng aral na si Cristo ay Dios, sila ay naimpluwensyahan ng ibang mga relihyon.
8. PASUGO Dec. 2003 "Ang Orihinal na Paniniwala kay Cristo ng mga Unang Cristiano": Isa namang paring Katoliko na si Ronald J. Wilkins ang nagpapatotoo rin na ang paniniwala ng mga unang Cristianoay si cristo ay tao.
9. same issue, "Ang Pinagmulan ng Pasko" : Ang Pasko raw po ay isang pistang pagano na isina-Cristiano. "Ang pagkakapili ng Disyembre 25..ay buhat lamang sa impluwensya ng mga Romanong pagano." Ang Christmas tree naman ay pangkaraniwan sa paganong Roma at Ehipto. Bakit bawal: Titus 1:14, 2 Tim 3:15-17, 2 Thes 2:11-12.
Thanks po and God bless!
VIVA LA FE CATOLICA!

Dear Bro. Franciscus Carmelo,
ReplyDeleteI got your questions but I have so many questions to answer. Please wait lang.
Hello Bro. Francescus Carmelo,
ReplyDeleteHERE IS MY REPLY TO THE POINTS IN PASUGO:
[PART I
Hello po Father. I am your blog fan po. I daily consult your very beautiful and awesome blog and as i read my love for the Church is always kindled and seems increasing. Thanks po.]
YOU ARE WELCOME BRO. FRANCESCUS.
[Eto po pakay ko. May nakita po akong mga Pasugo sa bahay namin at nakabasa po ako ng mga anti-Catholic teachings dito ng INC.]
KUNG AYAW MO NG MGA PASUGO NA IYAN AY IBIGAY MO SA AKIN. GAGAMITIN KO SILA PARA IPAGTANGGOL ANG ATING PANANAMPALATAYA.
[Tulungan nyo po ako:]
[1. PASUGO April 2004, pg. 16: Kasaysayan ang nagpapatotoo na ang pagkakalikha ng aral na si Cristo ay Dios ay nag-ugat sa kagustuhan ni Emperador Constantino na mapanatili ang kapayapaan ng kaniyang imperyo.]
MALI AT PALPAK.
ANG PAGKA-DIOS NI CRISTO AY MALINAW NA IPINAHAYAG NG BIBLIA. AT ITO ANG PANANAMPALATAYA NG MGA CRISTIANO FROM 1ST CENTURY OF CHRISTIANITY UNTIL THE TIME OF CONSTANTINE.
ANG DOCTRINA NA TAO LANG SI CRISTO AY DUMATING LAMANG NUONG PANAHON NI CONSTANTINE SA PAGTUTURO NI ARIUS NA PARI NG ALEXANDRIA. DAHIL SA KASINUNGALINGAN NI ARIUS NAGPATAWAG ANG EMPERADOR NG COUNCIL O PAGTITIPON NG MGA OBISPO MULA SA LAHAT NG PANIG NG DAIGDIG. DUON AY NAGDESISYON ANG MGA OBISPO NA MALI SI ARIUS DAHIL SI CRISTO AY DIOS NA TUTUO AT TAONG TUTUO.
HINDI SI CONSTANTINE ANG NAG DECISION KUNDI ANG MGA BISHOPS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TOGETHER WITH THE PAPAL LEGATES.
SI MANALO AY GINAYA SI ARIUS. THEY BOTH DENIED THE DIVINITY OF JESUS. KAYA PAREHO SILA NG KAMATAYAN. PAREHONG SUMAMBULAT ANG BITUKA.
[2. Same issue, pg. 24: Explicitly or implicitly, there is nothing in the Bible that teaches God as a Trinity. (citations: The Teachings of Christ: A Catholic Catechism for Adults, p. 177; Full Christianity: A Catholic Response to Fundamental Questions, p. 25)]
THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE BIBLE THAT TEACHES GOD AS A TRINITY:
Mateo 28:19 "Gawin ninyong alagad ko ang mga bansa, Bautismohan ninyo sila sa NGALAN ng AMA, at ng ANAK, at ng ESPIRITO SANTO."
AYAN ANG TRINITY. ONE GOD... ONE NAME... ONE BEING WITH THREE PERSONS - FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT.
ANG WALA SA BIBLIA AY ANG WORD NA TRINITY. YON AY THEOLOGICAL TERM. PERO WALA RIN SA BIBLIA NA SI FELIX MANALO AY SUGO. IYON KAHIT SA GUNI-GUNI E WALA TALAGA.
Ok lang po, Father. Thanks in advance.
ReplyDeleteFather, alam 'nyo po, talagang mga hipokrito itong mga INC na to ni Manalo. Eh, dito po sa Pasugong nabasa ko, meron po ritong mga larawan ng wreath-laying ni Eduardo Manalo sa monumento ng kanyang lolo na si Felix Manalo. Ang alam ko po e bawal sa kanila ang paggawa ng mga larawan ng kahit na ano o sino, tinutuligsa pa nga tayong Katoliko, tapos ay ginagawa pala nila, inaaalayan pa nila ng bulaklak. So, based on their own standards, they are practicing idolatry. Ay naku talaga itong mga ereheng ito. Meron na po ba kayo nitong mga photos father? I-expose nyo po...
ReplyDelete[3. PASUGO Jan. 2004, p. 33ff: (Regarding the Logos in John 1): What was with God in the beginning was His concept or plan or idea (logos) about the Christ who would be coming to the world. The term logos does not refer to someone who was co-existing with God in the beginning.]
ReplyDeleteHA, HA, HA... HERE THEY ARE TRULY PROVEN AS LIARS. LET US CHECK THE BIBLE:
John 1:1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
THERE IS THE LOGOS. THE LOGOS WAS GOD.
[2The same was in the beginning with God.]
THE LOGOS WITH GOD FROM ETERNITY... FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. THIS IS THE ETERNAL EXISTENCE OF THE LOGOS.
[3All things were made by HIM; and without HIM was not any thing made that was made.]
LOOK AT THE PERSONAL PRONOUN USED. THE BIBLE DOES NOT USE THE WORD 'IT' PROPER FOR NON PERSONAL THINGS SUCH AS PLAN, PROJECT, IDEAS, ETC.
IT CLEARLY REFERS TO SOMEONE. IN GOOD NEWS BIBLE WHICH IS A FAVORITE OF THE MANOLISTAS: "HE was the same as God". Again personal pronoun. The Logos is SOMEONE.
4In HIM was life; and the life was the light of men.
ONCE AGAIN. ITS PERSONAL PRONOUN. THE LOGOS IS A PERSON NOT A PLAN OR CONCEPT. THE MANALOS ARE EATING TOO MUCH "LECHE PLAN". HE, HE, HE...
[Christ existed only when he was born. He had no prior existence.]
WRONG. "IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE LOGOS" AND THE LOGOS WAS WITH GOD FROM THE BEGINNING. NOTHING WAS CREATED WITHOUT HIM. SO, IF THERE I NO CHRIST IN CREATION NOTHING WOULD HAVE BEEN MADE.
[The word "God" in the third clause of John 1:1 is not a noun but an adjective...]
IT IS A NOUN. IN ENGLISH IT IS RENDERED 'THE LOGOS IS GOD' BUT IN GREEK: "KAI THEOS EN HO LOGOS" = AND GOD IS THE LOGOS.
[What does it mean that the logos was divine?]
THE GREEK USED THE WORD 'THEOS' WHICH MEANS 'GOD'. THE LOGOS IS GOD, NOT 'THE LOGOS IS DIVINE'. THE LOGOS IS TRULY GOD.
[It means that the word of God is with power...]
WRONG. THE LITERAL TERM IS "AND GOD IS THE LOGOS". MEANING THE WORD OF GOD IS GOD. THERE IS NO POWER STATED THEREIN. IT DOES NOT SPEAK ABOUT THE WORD OF GOD HAVING A POWER, BUT THAT THE LOGOS IS GOD.
[The concept of incarnation grossly violates the biblical teaching concerning the immutability of God.]
IT DOES NOT VIOLATE THE IMMUTABILITY OF GOD BECAUSE GOD IS THE LORD OF CREATION SO HE CAN UTILIZE TO THE FULL THE MATERIAL CREATION IN ORDER TO BRING ABOUT HIS SALVIFIC PLAN TO MANKIND.
IT IS MORE STUPID TO TEACH THAT A MAN LIKE FELIX MANALO WHO HAD SEVERAL WIVES AND A RAPE CASE AT THAT COULD BE AN ANGEL.
[4. PASUGO, Nov. 2003 p. 16 Dapat bang ipagmisa ang mga patay?: Ayon sa Biblia (Ecclesiastes 9:5-6), ang patay ay wala nang anumang bahagi pa sa anumang ginagawa sa ilalim ng araw.]
ReplyDeleteHA, HA, HA... ANG MGA PATAY NA TINUTUKOY DITO AY ANG MGA BANGKAY SA SEMENTERIO. WALA SILANG BAHAGI SA ILALIM NG ARAW KASI NASA ILALIM SILA NG LUPA AT WALANG BUHAY. SUBALIT ANG PINAG-MIMISA NG MGA CATOLICO AY HINDI ANG MGA PATAY NA BANGKAY KUNDI ANG MGA BUHAY NA KALULUWA O ANG ESPIRITU:
ECCLESIASTES 12:7 [Mabuting Balita] "Alalahanin mo siya bago manumbalik sa lupa ang ating katawang lupa at ang ating ESPIRITU AY MAGBALIK SA DIYOS na may bigay nito."
KITAM, ANG KATAWAN AY NAGBABALIK SA LUPA, NAMAMATAY. SUBALIT ANG ESPIRITU AY NAGBABALIK SA DIOS. PARA ANO? PARA PATAYIN NG DIOS ANG ATING ESPIRITU? HINDI, KUNDI PARA HUSGAHAN:
Hebreo 9:27 [Ang Biblia] "At kung paano itinakda sa mga tao ang mamatay na minsan at pagkatapos nito ay ang paghuhukom."
MATAPOS MAMATAY AY ANG PAGHUHUKOM. ANO ANG HUHUKUMAN? E DI ANG KALULUWA. MERON BA TAYONG MAKIKITA SA BIBLIA NA MATAPOS MAMATAY E HINUSGAHAN AGAD? MERON, SI CRISTO PA MISMO ANG NAGSABI:
Luke 16:22-23 [AB] "At nangyari na NAMATAY ANG PULUBI at siya'y dinala ng mga anghel sa sinapupunan ni Abraham, at NAMATAY naman ang MAYAMAN at INILIBING. At sa Hades na nasa mga pagdurusa ay itiningin niya ang kanyang mga mata, at natanaw sa malayo si Abraham at si Lazaro ay nasa kanyang sinapupunan."
HA, HA, HA... AYAN. PAREHONG PATAY NA SI ABRAHAM, ANG PULUBI AT ANG MAYAMAN. INILIBING ANG MGA YAN. SUBALIT BUHAY. ALIN ANG INILIBING? ANG BANGKAY. ANO ANG BUHAY? ANG KALULUWA.
[ Kaya ang mga patay ay walang anumang pakinabang na nakukuha mula sa mga panalanging ginagawa para sa kanila...]
HA, HA, HA... YUNG MGA BANGKAY OO WALANG PAKINABANG SUBALIT ANG MGA BUHAY NA KALULUWA TULAD NG KALULUWA NG MAYAMAN NA NAGHIHIRAP AT HUMIHINGI NG AWA AY MAAARING IPANALANGIN SA DIOS. KASI BUHAY SILA E.
[Ang totoo ay ni wala tayong mababasang purgatoryo sa Biblia...]
ANG FELIX MANALO ANG WALA. WALA RING ERANEO AT EDUARDO MANALO. HE, HE, HE...
SUBALIT ANG ARAL NG PAGLILINIS NG KASALANAN DITO MAN SA DAIGDIG O SA KABILANG BUHAY AY NASA BIBLIA [cf. Mateo 12:32]. ANG DIOS AY NAGBIBIGAY NG PAGPAPALA SA MGA BUHAY AT MGA PATAY:
Ruth 2:20 "Pagpalain nawa siya ng Panginoon, na hindi ikinait ang kanyang kagandahang loob sa mga BUHAY at sa mga PATAY."
Ano ba ang kagandahang loob ng Dios? Kaligtasan, Paglilinis ng Kasalanan!!!
[ Ang aral tungkol sa Misa at purgatoryo ay inembento lamang o nilikha lamang ng Iglesia Katolika (AD 593.]
ANG MISA AY PAG-AALAY NG TINAPAY AT ALAK NA NAGIGING KATAWAN AT DUGO NI CRISTO. HINDI NAMIN ITO INIMBENTO. GALING ITO KAY CRISTO AT SA MGA APOSTOL [cf. 1 Corinthians 11:23-27]. YAN AY IBINIGAY MISMO AT ISINAGAWA NG MGA APOSTOLES NI CRISTO.
YUNG MGA PAIYAK IYAK NG MGA MANOLISTA SA PAGSAMBA NILA YON ANG IMBENTO. YON AY WALA SA BIBLIA AT ARAL NG DEMONIO.
YUNG PAGPASA NG PAMUMUNO NG IGLESIA MULA KAY FELIX TUNGO SA ANAK NA SI ERANEO AT SA APO NA SI EDUARDO AY WALA SA BIBLIA. YON AY ARAL NG DEMONIO.
ANG PAG-AALAY NG KATAWAN AT DUGO NI CRISTO AY MABISA PARA SA KALIGTASAN NG MGA TAO DAHIL ANG KATAWAN AT DUGO NI CRISTO AY NAKAPAGLILIGTAS.

ReplyDelete[5. PASUGO, Aug. 2004. "Who is the True God according to 1 John 5:20?"]
ReplyDeleteOF COURSE THIS REFERS TO JESUS. THE MAIN TOPIC OF JOHN IS THE WORD...[cf. 1 John 1:1-4] IT IS JESUS HE WAS POINTING TO.
[: "The Greek of 5:20 has only "the true (one)" and reads literally:]
THE GREEK OF 5:20 HAS THE SON OF GOD, THE TRUE ONE, THE TRUE GOD, JESUS CHRIST AND ETERNAL LIFE.
In the first line, the Son of God gave us understanding... to know the TRUE ONE.
Then the second line states what is this knowledge that was given:
OUR LIVES ARE IN THE TRUE ONE... IN HIS SON JESUS CHRIST.
So, the True One is God the Father and also His Son Jesus Christ. Because as our lives are in God, it is also in Jesus. Both God and Jesus are TRUE ONE. God is the True One and Jesus is the Truth as well.
That is why the Final sentence "This is the True God..." here it declares the Divinity of Jesus that is equal with the Father... because THE TRUE GOD IS ALSO THE ETERNAL LIFE. It only re-affirmed what is stated in the Introduction of this Epistle that the Word is the LIFE [1 John 1:2 "WE SAW IT... THE ETERNAL LIFE which was with the Father and was made known to us."
THE ETERNAL LIFE IS JESUS! THE ETERNAL LIFE WAS WITH THE FATHER. THEN AT THE END, THE TRUE GOD IS ALSO THE ETERNAL LIFE.
["we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding so that we know the true (one) and we are in the true (one), in his Son Jesus Christ. This (one) is the true God and eternal life.]
THE TRUE GOD IS REFERRED TO THE FATHER BUT NOT TO THE FATHER ONLY BECAUSE IT WAS ALSO REFERRED TO THE SON. THE TEXT AND THE ENTIRE EPISTLE SPEAKS OF BOTH THE FATHER AND THE SON AS TRUE GOD. THEY ARE ONE TRUE GOD. THE TRUE GOD IS THE ETERNAL LIFE! AND THAT ETERNAL LIFE IS THE LOGOS.
[It is clear from this that the true (one) is God throughout.]
THE TRUE ONE IS ATTRIBUTED TO BOTH GOD AND HIS SON.
[Christ is his Son.]
THE SON, THE LOGOS IS THE ETERNAL LIFE. ONLY GOD IS THE ETERNAL LIFE.
[In the final sentence "this" (one) most natuarally refers still to God, not to Christ, as some have suggested."]
WRONG. THE TRUE GOD AND THE ETERNAL LIFE REFERS TO THE FATHER AND TO JESUS. THE POINT OF JOHN IS TO SHOW THAT JESUS IS EQUAL IN BEING AS WELL AS DIVINITY WITH THE FATHER. THE ETERNAL LIFE IS JESUS AND THE ETERNAL LIFE IS TRUE GOD WITH THE FATHER.
IF THE GIVEN UNDERSTANDING IS THAT GOD IS GOD THEN THERE IS NO NEED OF SPECIAL GIFT OF KNOWLEDGE. THE REASON WHY THE SON OF GOD GAVE US UNDERSTANDING IS IN ORDER FOR US TO REALIZE THAT THE SON IS GOD.
[(The Johannine Epistles, William Loader). The true God in 1 John 5:20 could not be the Son or Christ, who was sent by the Father.]
WRONG. THE TRUE GOD IS CHRIST BECAUSE THE TRUE GOD IS IDENTIFIED AS THE ETERNAL LIFE. THAT ETERNAL LIFE IS CHRIST WHO WAS WITH THE FATHER [1 Jn 1:2]. Thus, it leads to Catholic Teaching that the Father and the Son are One God.
[6. PASUGO, OCt. 2000, The Folly of the Belief in Papal Infallibility, pg. 28ff.: History is so full of instances in which the Pope is seen to have erred:]
ReplyDeleteHA, HA, HA... THIS STATEMENT IS A MANIFESTATION OF MANALO'S FOLLY OF IGNORANCE. INFALLIBILITY DOES NOT MEAN THE POPE WILL NOT COMMIT MISTAKES RATHER THAT THEY ARE PROTECTED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT FROM ERRORS WHEN THEY ARE TEACHING OFFICIALLY IN FAITH AND MORALS.
[Pope Stephen put to trial for heresy the rotting cadaver of Pope Formosus,]
OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS NOT AN INFALLIBLE ACT. POPE STEPHEN ACTED IMPROPERLY JUST LIKE THE MANALO'S PUTTING THE BODY OF FELIX AND ERANEO INSIDE THEIR TEMPLE'S TABERNACLE. THAT IS SACRILEGIOUS.
[Pope Paul V declared the Copernican theory to be false, heretical and contrary to the word of God,]
THIS IS A LIE. THE COPERNICAL THEORY WAS NEVER DECLARED AS FALSE, HERETICAL AND CONTRARY TO THE WORD OF GOD. COPERNICUS WAS BEST FRIEND OF POPES DURING HIS TIME AND HE DIED AS A RESPECTED CATHOLIC SCIENTIST. THEY ARE JUST ENVIOUS BECAUSE THE MANALO CANNOT PRODUCE A SCIENTIST EQUAL IN GREATNESS AND IN ACHIEVEMENTS AS THE CATHOLIC SCIENTISTS.
[Pope Urban VIII condemned Galileo...]
GALILEO WAS TRIED BECAUSE HE CLAIMED THAT THE BIBLE IS WRONG. IF THE MANOLISTAS ARE AGAINST THAT DECISION IT MEANS THEY AGREE WITH GALILEO THAT THE BIBLE IS WRONG.
GALILEO WAS CENSURED NOT CONDEMNED FOR HIS THEOLOGY AND NOT FOR HIS SCIENCE. WHEN GALILEO RENOUNCED HIS HERETICAL STATEMENTS HE WAS FREED FROM HOUSE ARREST AND LIVED AS A FAITHFUL CATHOLIC UNTIL HE DIED. GALILEO WAS NOT STUPID AS TO JOIN THE IGLESIA MANOLISTA OF FELIX MANALO.
[Is it true that Mary was conceived without sin as pronounced ex cathedra by Pope Pius IX? The gospel states that all men sinned except Christ (Rom. 3:23, 1 Pet 2:21-22) Thus Pope Pius IX lied, erred, ex cathedra!]
ReplyDeleteIGNORANCE AGAIN. LET US CHECK:
Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
THAT STATEMENT IS GIVEN BEFORE HAND BY ST. PAUL AND EXPLAINED THEREIN, HERE:
Rom 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
SAYING ALL HAVE SINNED IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO ONE WHO IS RIGHTEOUS.
Rom 3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
AND NO ONE UNDERSTANDS AND NO ONE SEEKS GOD.
Rom 3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
SO, FOR ST. PAUL IT MEANS THAT ALL HAVE SINNED BECAUSE EVERY BODY ARE NOT DOING GOOD.
NOW, CAN WE TAKE THESE CLAIM AS 'ABSOLUTE'? NO. BECAUSE THE BIBLE CLEARLY STATES THAT THERE ARE EXEMPTIONS. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE RIGHTEOUS, JUST AND GOOD:
Genesis 7:1 "And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen RIGHETEOUS before me in this generation." [Is God the Father telling a lie when He said that Noah was righteous before Him?]
Genesis 15:6 "And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for RIGHTEOUSNESS." [This is Abraham]
Psalm 34:17 "The RIGHTEOUS cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles." [This verse is a lie if there are no righteous.]
Matthew 10:41 "He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a RIGHTEOUS MAN in the name of a RIGHETEOUS MAN shall receive a righteous man's reward." [There is a righteous man]
Matthew 13:17 "For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and RIGHTEOUS MEN have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them." [If there are no righteous men then the Lord Jesus is lying here. That is absurd.]
Luke 1:6 "And they were both RIGHTEOUS before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless." [Zechariah and Elizabeth]
SO, THERE ARE RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE. THERE ARE JUST AND GOOD PEOPLE AND SOME HAVE NOT COMMITTED SINS. WHAT IS THE SIN OF MARY? OF ELIJAH? OF ENOCH?
THE POPE DECLARED MARY AS FREE FROM SIN BECAUSE MARY IS ALREADY SAVED BY CHRIST:
ReplyDeleteLuke 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
FOR THAT REASON MARY IS ALREADY 'BLESSED' FOREVER. HERE:
Luke 1:48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth ALL GENERATIONS shall call me BLESSED.
ACTUALLY FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT GOD THE FATHER ALREADY PROPHESIED AND DECREED THAT THE MOTHER OF THE MESSIAH SHALL BE IN PERPETUAL ENMITY WITH SATAN:
Genesis 3:15 And I will put ENMITY between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
THE MOTHER OF THE SAVIOR SHALL BE IN ENMITY WITH SATAN. HOW? BECAUSE SHE WILL ALWAYS BE GOOD. THAT IS WHY IN REV. 12 SATAN, THE ANCIENT DRAGON CANNOT HURT THE WOMAN CLOTHED WITH THE SON.
[Is it true that Mary was assumed, body and soul, into heaven as pronounced ex cathedra by Pope Pius XII? Is it true therefore that Mary is in heaven? The Bible records only three men to be in heaven, namely Enoch (Gn 5:24; Heb 11:5), Elijah (2 Kg 2:11), and Christ (Mk 16:19). There is no mention of any woman being in heaven. Mary...suffered the lot of all men (Gn 3:17-19). Thus Pope Pius XII lied, erred, ex cathedra!]
THE POPE DIDN'T LIE IT IS FELIX MANALO WHO IS LYING BECAUSE THE BIBLE STATES THAT THERE IS A WOMAN IN HEAVEN. HE, HE, HE...:
Revelation 12:1 "And there appeared a great wonder IN HEAVEN; a WOMAN clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars."
SEE FOR YOURSELF. THERE IS A GREAT SIGN IN HEAVEN... WHAT IS THAT A WOMAN. WHO IS THAT WOMAN? THE MOTHER OF THE KING OF KINGS:
Revelation 12:5 "And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne."
THE MAN-CHILD IS JESUS AND THE WOMAN IS MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS.
[Is it true that the Popes do not err in the making of saints!]
HA, HA, HA... STUPID ASSERTION. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH DOES NOT TEACH THAT POPES ARE 'MAKING' SAINTS. NO, NO, NO. ONLY IDIOTS OF CATHOLIC THEOLOGY WILL TEACH THAT. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE POPES SIMPLY ACKNOWLEDGES THE SANCTITY LIVED BY THOSE PERSONS AND THAT IT RECOGNIZED THAT GOD APPROVED THE CHURCH RECOGNITION BY GRANTING A MIRACLE THROUGH THE INTERCESSION OF THE SAINT. THUS, THE PROPER TERM IS CANONIZATION. THAT IS THE AUTHORITATIVE RECOGNITION AND DECLARATION OF ONE'S SANCTITY... NOT MAKING SAINTS.
[Such a claim is false for the same reasons that it is false to claim that Mary is already in heaven.]
MARY THE WOMAN WHO IS THE MOTHER OF THE KING OF KINGS IS IN HEAVEN AS SHOWN IN REVELATION 12:1. IT IS FELIX AND KA ERDY MANALO WHO ARE NOT IN HEAVEN. THEY ARE BOTH ROTTING IN HELL. HA, HA, HA...
[Besides, there were about 200 saints - among them St. Christopher, St. Valentine, St. Nicholas, St. George, and St. Patrick - who were stricken from the list of saints (Time Magazine, May 16, 1969). This means that the Popes who pronounced them saints erred. They lied ex cathedra 200 times!]
HA, HA, HA... THEY ARE STRICKEN TO THE LIST OF SAINTS TO GIVE WAY TO THE OTHERS. BECAUSE THERE ARE ALREADY TOO MANY. BUT THE POPE DIDN'T DECLARE THEM NON SAINTS. IN FACT, WE STILL HAVE DEVOTIONS TO ST. CHRISTOPHER AND ALL OF THESE SAINTS IN YOUR 200 NAME LIST. THE BRITISH STILL HONORS ST. GEORGE, THE IRISH STILL VENERATES ST. PATRICK, ETC.
THE TIME MAGAZINE IS NOT AN EXPERT ON CATHOLIC THEOLOGY AND SO THEY COMMITTED A MISTAKE IN REPORTING IT. AND THE MANALOS STUPIDLY COPIED THE DATA OF THE TIME MAGAZINE WITHOUT FIRST CHECKING IF IT IS ACCURATE OR NOT. HA, HA, HA...

ReplyDeleteITO AY DIRECTA AT TAHASANG KASINUNGALINGAN DAHIL MARAMING MGA CHURCH FATHERS ANG NAGTURO NG PAGKADIOS NI CRISTO:
Church Fathers - Jesus is God the Son
“We have also as a Physician the Lord our GOD, Jesus the Christ, the only-begotten Son and Word, before time began, but who afterwards became also man, of Mary the virgin." Ignatius of Antioch, To the Ephesians, 7 (A.D. 110).
"For if you had understood what has been written by the prophets, you would not have denied that He was GOD, Son of the only, unbegotten, unutterable God." Justin Martyr, Dialogue with Trypho, 121 (A.D. 155).
"God was in the beginning; but the beginning, we have been taught, is the power of the Logos. For the Lord of the universe, who is Himself the necessary ground of all being, inasmuch as no creature was yet in existence, was alone; but inasmuch as He was all power, Himself the necessary ground of things visible and invisible, with Him were all things; with Him, by Logos-power, the Logos Himself also, who was in Him, subsists. And by His simple will the Logos springs forth; and the Logos, not coming forth in vain, becomes the first-begotten work of the Father. Him (the Logos) we know to be the beginning of the world. But He came into being by participation, not by abscission; for what is cut off is separated from the original substance, but that which comes by participation, making its choice of function, does not render him deficient from whom it is taken. For just as from one torch many fires are lighted, but the light of the first torch is not lessened by the kindling of many torches, so the Logos, coming forth from the Logos-power of the Father, has not divested of the Logos-power Him who begat Him." Tatian the Syrian, Oration Against the Greeks, 5 (c. A.D. 175).
"We do not act as fools, O Greeks, nor utter idle tales, when we announce that GOD was born in the form of a man." Tatian the Syrian, Oration Against the Greeks, 21 (c. A.D. 175).
ReplyDelete"But the Son of God is the Logos of the Father, in idea and in operation; for after the pattern of Him and by Him were all things made, the Father and the Son being one. And, the Son being in the Father and the Father in the Son, in oneness and power of spirit, the understanding and reason of the Father is the Son of God. But if, in your surpassing intelligence, it occurs to you to inquire what is meant by the Son, I will state briefly that He is the first product of the Father, not as having been brought into existence (for from the beginning, God, who is the eternal mind, had the Logos in Himself, being from eternity instinct with Logos." Athenagoras, Plea for Christians, 10 (A.D. 177).
"We have already asserted that God made the world, and all which it contains, by His Word, and Reason, and Power. It is abundantly plain that your philosophers, too, regard the Logos--that is, the Word and Reason--as the Creator of the universe...And we, in like manner, hold that the Word, and Reason, and Power, by which we have said God made all, have spirit as their proper and essential substratum, in which the Word has inbeing to give forth utterances, and reason abides to dispose and arrange, and power is over all to execute. We have been taught that He proceeds forth from God, and in that procession He is generated; so that He is the Son of God, and is called God from unity of substance with God. For God, too, is a Spirit. Even when the ray is shot from the sun, it is still part of the parent mass; the sun will still be in the ray, because it is a ray of the sun--there is no division of substance, but merely an extension. Thus Christ is Spirit of Spirit, and God of God, as light of light is kindled. The material matrix remains entire and unimpaired, though you derive from it any number of shoots possessed of its qualities; so, too, that which has come forth out of God is at once God and the Son of God, and the two are one. In this way also, as He is Spirit of Spirit and GOD OF GOD, He is made a second in manner of existence--in position, not in nature; and He did not withdraw from the original source, but went forth. This ray of God, then, as it was always foretold in ancient times, descending into a certain virgin, and made flesh in her womb, is in His birth God and man united." Tertullian, Apology, 21 (A.D. 197).
"But nothing exists, the cause of whose existence is not supplied by God. Nothing, then, is hated by God, nor yet by the Word. For both are one--that is, GOD." Clement of Alexandria, The Instructor, I:8 (A.D. 202).
ReplyDelete"And thus there appeared another beside Himself. But when I say another, I do not mean that there are two Gods, but that it is only as light of light, or as water from a fountain, or as a ray from the sun. For there is but one power, which is from the All; and the Father is the All, from whom cometh this Power, the Word. And this is the mind which came forth into the world, and was manifested as the Son of God." Hippolytus, Against the Heresy of One Noetus, 11 (A.D. 210).
"The Logos alone of this God is from God himself; wherefore also the Logos is GOD, being the substance of God." Hippolytus, Refutation against All Heresies, 10:29 (A.D. 220).
"Secondly, That Jesus Christ Himself, who came (into the world), was born of the Father before all creatures; that, after He had been the servant of the Father in the creation of all things--'For by Him were all things made'--He in the last times, divesting Himself (of His glory), became a man, and was incarnate although God, and while made a man remained the GOD which He was; that He assumed a body like to our own, differing in this respect only, that it was born of a virgin and of the Holy Spirit: that this Jesus Christ was truly born, and did truly suffer, and did not endure this death common (to man) in appearance only, but did truly die; that He did truly rise from the dead; and that after His resurrection He conversed with His disciples, and was taken up into heaven." Origen, First Principles, Preface 4 (A.D. 230).
"For Scripture as much announces Christ as also GOD, as it announces GOD Himself as man." Novatian, Concerning the Trinity, 11 (A.D. 235).
"If of Christ; he could not become His temple, since he denies that Christ is GOD." Cyprian, To Jubaianus, Epistle 72[73]:12 (A.D. 256).
ALL OF THESE ARE FROM 2ND TO 3RD CENTURIES. THAT IS WHY IT IS WRONG TO SAY THAT THE DOCTRINE OF DIVINITY OF JESUS STARTED ONLY DURING THE 4TH CENTURY.

[Bakit bawal: Titus 1:14, 2 Tim 3:15-17, 2 Thes 2:11-12.]
LET US CHECK THESE PASSAGES ONE BY ONE:
Titus 1:14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
LIAR,LIAR, LIAR THE PASUGO. HE, HE,HE... THERE IS NO STATEMENT THERE THAT CHRISTMAS TREE IS PROHIBITED OR EVIL OR PAGAN IN ORIGIN. NOTHING. SEE, MANALO IS A LIAR.
2 Timothy 3:15-17 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
AGAIN, THERE IS NO STATEMENT HERE PROHIBITING THE CHRISTMAS TREE AND NOTHING THAT SAYS IT IS FROM THE PAGANS.
WHAT IS STATED IS THAT THE SCRIPTURES ARE INSPIRED BY GOD. OF COURSE WE ARE TEACHING THAT. THE MANOLISTAS GOT THEIR BIBLE FROM THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. IT IS THE CATHOLIC CHURCH THAT GAVE THE BIBLE TO THE WORLD.
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
ONCE AGAIN, NOTHING AGAINST THE CHRISTMAS TREE. SEE HOW THEY LIE THROUGH THEIR TEETH.
WHO IS BELIEVING A LIE? THE MEMBERS OF THE IGLESIA NI MANALO. THEY WERE DECEIVED BY FELIX MANALO THAT HE IS AN ANGEL DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE DIED WITH HIS INTESTINES BURSTING OFF. DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE SUCCUMBED TO LUST FOR HIS MANY WIVES AND EVEN HAD A RAPE CASE WITH ROSITA TRILLANES.
WHERE DID THE USE OF 'TREE' AS A SYMBOL FOR THE BIRTH OF THE MESSIAH WAS TAKEN BY THE CATHOLIC CHURCH? HERE:
ReplyDeleteIsaiah 11:1 (New International Version) The Branch From Jesse 1 A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. [Jesus is symbolized by the Tree which bears a lot of fruits. This is the Biblical image of the re-establishment of the Kingdom of David.]
Let us take a closer look at the Tagalog translation of that verse and its continuation:
Isa 11:1-2 At may lalabas na usbong sa PUNO ni Isai, at isang sanga mula sa kaniyang mga ugat ay magbubunga: At ang Espiritu ng Panginoon ay sasa kaniya, ang diwa ng karunungan at ng kaunawaan, ang diwa ng payo at ng katibayan, ang diwa ng kaalaman at ng takot sa Panginoon...
[Now, this is obviously a Messianic prophecy. The Messiah is likened to a branch of a Tree. And not only that, the Stem of Jesse have been presumed dead for centuries yet a new shoot will rise out of it and it will become a Tree itself and will give fruits to others.]
THIS IS THE ORIGIN OF CHRISTMAS TREE. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS… LITERALLY OBVIOUS… AND THE CONTEXT IS TRULY RELATED TO THE BIRTH OF THE MESSIAH IN THE KINGDOM OF DAVID. MUCH MORE THE IMAGE OF THE ‘TREE OF LIFE’ IS NOT ONLY LIMITED TO THE BIRTH OF THE MESSIAH. IT IS ALSO A BIBLICAL IMAGE OF THE TRIUMPH OF THE MESSIAH OVER EVIL:
Revelation 22:1-2 (New King James Version)
1 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was THE TREE OF LIFE, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Also, the Bible likens a faithful believer who lives in righteousness to a TREE planted near the running waters, bearing fruits and having constant fresh leaves. [It looks like a Christmas Tree to me]:
Psalm 1:3 (New International Version)
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
[So, the Christmas Tree is also a reminder for us Christians that if we are faithful to the Lord – The Branch of David, we too shall bear fruits for others...] This is a very beautiful Biblical imagery [cf. Psalm 92:12-13].
Psalm 96:12-13 (New International Version)
12 let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy;
13 they will sing before the LORD, for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his truth.
[Another Biblical Prophecy concerning the coming of the Messiah is that the Trees of the Forests will sing for joy. Of course, this refers to the fact that the entire creation will rejoice because God is Born unto us… the source of creation is coming to be with the things He created. The Catholics expressed this beautiful Biblical Imagery by presenting a Tree so full of fruits, constantly fresh leaves, covered with light, with the Star of Bethlehem on top and not only that, we put singing Christmas Lights around the Christmas Tree to signify the Joy of Creation with the Birth of the Messiah.]
