The carnage that left 57 dead at Shariff Aguak, Maguindanao on
November 23 has left us all wondering for what barbarity and primitive
acts has been committed not just to the Maguindanao populace but for us
all. This begs us not just a simple what? Or why? But a condition that
existed already and burst out of control, finally the devil has been
exposed for what it is. Political violence that marked many provinces
is a color that has co-existed among many

A functioning body
“For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and
all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so
also is Christ.
 Just as the body of man is but one, so is the Body of Christ but one
For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body,
whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to
drink of one Spirit. For the body is not one member, but many. If the
foot says, “Because I am not a hand, I am not a part of the body,” it
is not for ... Continue reading ...

William Tyndale

to know more of the Scripture than he did.” So William Tyndale begun
the English Reformation that changed the very flavor of Christianity in

Salt and Light of the World part 3
Even if Wycliffe had not translated the Bible in English, his action of
training lay preachers or common men to preach the Word of God in
England before the priests of his day was a rebellious act tantamount
to excommunication. But he excelled even when pressured to stop his
program and it was during these times when he was already under fire of

Updates on the Ifugao CYF leadership seminar
As some of you may already know, we went to Kiangan, Ifugao for the
CYF leadership conference that has instilled a greater zeal and
devotion on our part who oversaw the work there. Truly, God’s army is
moving forward and I could find no other encouragement than that my
survey of the youth leaders there showed that 87% of these young men
and women wants to do ministry and 95% of them in worship/music area.
This is not a coincidence because it is during these dull, boisterous
and chaotic peri... Continue reading ...
The coming global warming
“The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they
transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant.
Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held
guilty. Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men

of Science to take care and save the planet. Despite the many warnings
and the awareness preached by environmental movement gr... Continue reading ...
The Political Dynasties of the Philippines part 2

 Malacanang Palace, the house of all Philippine Presidents
Far East. War tempered and full of vision, this post World War II
leaders gave a sense of vision to Filipinos both the rich and the poor.
It was to be going on to great progress, but the wilderness pe... Continue reading ...
The Political Dynasties of the Philippines part 1
A fragmented society
The Philippine culture has a great flair for being known for
political dynasties. One question that we can have on this is what are

opting for rather a familiar person and not looking for another one or
for a change? Culture alone and history won’t completely answer these
questions but we do have a culture that promotes political dynasties to
run. The history of the Filipino people would to show us th... Continue reading ...
