This page mainly is about my faith for the purpose of sharing information and facts of the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church of Christ). My parents are both members of this Church. Therefore, I was born as an Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC).

THE TRUE CHURCH

At the early age of the Iglesia ni Cristo, it had encountered countless obstacles, derisions and persecutions. But with the help of God it has emerged triumphant and has flourished to the acme of its present glorious stature and posture, palpably evidenced by the increase of converts that joined the innumerable caravan in the terrestrial sojourn of God's people on the Christian era and also by the mushrooming Houses of Worship through the breadth and length of the Archipelago.

Yet, the prophecies of God concerning this Church do not end here, but even go beyond the Philippine shores as far as the propagation of the faith is concerned. The factual mission of this church is up to the end of the world.

BRIEF HISTORY OF IGLESIA NI CRISTO IN THE PHILIPPINES

In 1914, a young Filipino by the name of Felix Manalo, 28 (married), began preaching the Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ) in a place called the Sitio of Punta Sta. Ana in the City of Manila, Philippines. This event, which marked the beginning of a new religious movement in the history of what is known as the Christian world, occurred concurrently with the outbreak of the First World War in Europe on July 27, 1914. It is the fulfillment of the many prophecies of God written in the Bible concerning His Last Messenger in the person of Brother Felix Manalo and the reestablishment of the Church of Christ or Iglesia ni Cristo in the Philippines.

This Church was officially registered in the Philippine Government on July 27, 1914.

THE PATH THAT LEADS TO SALVATION

To walk in the path to salvation is to enter in Christ. Those who have entered in Christ have entered into the fold or flock (Jn. 10:9, Revised English Bible). This flock is the Church of Christ: "Take heed therefore to yourselves and to all the flock over which the Holy Spirit has appointed you overseers, to feed the church of Christ which he has purchased with his blood." (Acts 20:28, Lamsa Translation).

Therefore, it is by entering or joining the Church of Christ through which a person takes the path that leads to salvation.

So, if a person seeks the path that leads to salvation, he must enter the narrow gate, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Jn 10:9), by becoming a member of the Church of Christ. This is the only way through which Christ will save man. This is God's master plan for salvation: "May he be given glory forever and ever through endless ages because of his master plan of salvation for the church through Jesus Christ." (Eph. 3:21, Living Bible)

Indeed, joining the Church of Christ is necessary for man's salvation. Inside the Church, one should continue to do good deeds, obey the rest of God's commandments, and remain in the Church until the end. For the members of the Church of Christ who will endure until the end, the promise of the Savior is clear: "But He who endures to the end shall be saved." (Mt. 24:13, NKJV)
