Last week we have discussed that crises
come to try us and reveal the foundations that we have. Every person
in this world will face crisis in varying degrees and so will every
tribe, nation and organizations. How we face the trials will determine
the outcome of our destiny. Just as Israel’s first test was to either
believe the Lord in the midst of trying circumstances or abandon their
faith and return to slavery so will every one of us. When Pharaoh’s
army pursued them in the Red ... Continue reading ...
There is hope amidst the cacophony of
confusion and shaking that is happening everywhere. The event that
transpired last Monday (August 23), the infamous bus hostage taking
at the Quirino grandstand that was watched around the world was
supposed to be a showcase whether Noynoy and most Filipinos would
value the life of their human fellows or allow themselves to be bound
by the temporal convenience that has taken root upon almost everyone
in this planet. Sadly, the 11 hour struggle that sta... Continue reading ...
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Hosea 4:6
Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of
wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been
brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as
instruments of righteousness. Romans 6:13 (NIV)
Like a virus that needs a host before it can infect an animal or
plant, evil is not transmitted without a host. It needs body before
being incubated and then shots up to infect othe... Continue reading ...
I slept only to rise up and open my eyes
to see the desert wilderness of Judea, it seems untrue, but my dream
was real. The blinding light has penetrated my only cover, the rolled
blanket I took from my grandmother since travelling to Israel. We were
just young children then, talking about going somewhere and doing things
with no profoundities but some absurd foolish heads jesting about their
future. I heard of the Messiah who will come again and judge the world
in truth and righte... Continue reading ...
I have promised to our guru readers last
year that I am working on a new book release apart from the first one
which you have already read, “Awaking the church into her glorious
destiny.” Writing has not been my craft in High School and college
though I wrote a lot of letters to my love ones and especially to my
wife. To prove that, I have been part of the TNHS Newsette since my
second year in High School but for my three years of stay, I had never
been given the chance to go t... Continue reading ...
Fröhliche Weihnachten! Naragsak a Pascua kadatayu amin. These two words are often painted in canvass of mixed colors, splashed with creativity, they hang almost everywhere in most shops and department stores. Some even glow at night
with neon brightness. This happens not just in Europe but around the
world where Christ is named and the
 To the extent that we do good deeds to the least of His Brethren, we did it to Him practice celebrated with assiduous religiosity. Sometime ago, I felt

We are taking sometime to absorb the lessons that we can get from the recent albeit macabre Ampatuan massacre. As Christians who are called to be the salt and light of the earth, we are supposed to be shining our light on issues in our
For there to be justice in the land, a judge must be impartial, decisive and takes action on the basis of evidences and witnesses communities that beg us to question why? And how we can avoid those same pitfall that our brethren has fallen to. We are decei... Continue reading ...
“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 ...
In an amazing twist of destiny, we have been spared from
another possibly deadly typhoon attack but praise the Lord for as we
have all been praying, God stopped Ramil in the sea. Can God really
stop a typhoon, much less a superstrong one in the radar of weather
forecasters? Yes, that truth is easier realized than anything when we
think that He is both just, merciful and loving God. God can stop any
percolating typhoon, windstorm, thunderstorm or even tornado. Even at
the risk of being ...
Previously we discussed that there is an ongoing battle
between light and darkness and ultimately, light will win just as when
you open your lights at night, it drives away darkness in the room. A
basic way to gain understanding how best   Blackholes can suck the light of others when nearby stars passes them by we can truly become the light of the world, is by examining the
Scriptures which Jesus used to teach the people about being lights. It
is imperative that if we want to properly u...
Given all the prevailing issues that have come due to the
floods that has brought our country to its knees, there is only one
sure solution that everyone of us need to understand. We must build our
houses on the Rock, that is plain, stable and solid ground that none
can push away. This Rock is not dead, nor is it of volcanic origin or
“earthly” as many geologists would mistake. It is not. We have to see
the perspectives that is upon us now by asking three salient questions,
1) Wh... Continue reading ...
We continue our discussion on how we can best become the harbingers of peace and light into our families, communities and eventually our nation. The church is the most powerful entity in this world when we all combine our resources together as one big cooperative and institution. Whenever the Lord looks down from heaven, He does not see His body as bodies but He only sees one Church, His Bride. It is therefore very repugnant if not at all presumptuous to think that we own the people of God as... Continue reading ...
I was wondering if there were signs to be observed and things that we have overlooked why we have not known before hand the magnitude of the flood that will be coming. If we could have known then we could have prepared very well. This in essence is the conclusion of many of those who were surprised of the flooding that took away millions of pesos of infrastructure damages and more than a hundred lives.  Because we thought that PAGASA forecasts are not worth learning, most of us were caught una... Continue reading ...
This past two days we saw the great swell of water that flooded Marikina, Rizal, Bulacan and 23 other provinces that could only be described as catastrophic in nature. Typhoons and hurricanes represent one of the most potent forces of nature that could ever bring disaster on earth. With an average of 20 typhoons passing all over the country, there is no doubt that it takes a great faith and patience to truly build something of value and wonder in our country specially in Luzon and parts of Vi...

Previously, we discussed that one of the greatest barriers that is coming down is the carnal reasoning that we must only take good care ourselves and forget the others. Being our brother’s keeper is loving our neighbor as we love ourselves which is the second commandment of Love. Probably, all the great mistakes in history is rooted in self-preservation, thus Jesus forewarned “For whoever wishes to save his life shall lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake shall find it. “For w...

My wife suddenly had uncontrollable spasms in her stomach on the
midnight of September 5. It begun last September 3 during the night
after we just finished celebrating the 2nd birthday of our toddler
Germane Amber. We thought that her spasms were simple stomach aches. My
wife also told me that it was different already because our first child
was born premature at 8 months last September 3, 2007 in Davao.
Her labor of spasms were unknown to her because when Germane was
born, she got spotting ... Continue reading ...
One of the questions we face when trials come upon our ways is whether God is really with us all the way or He has simply left us to suffer alone. Recently I faced one of the toughest trials yet that I have faced on earth, I almost lost my son because of sepsis. During our stay in Germany, it was our plan that my wife give birth in a decent hospital that would care for her and our baby. It is hard to imagine, much more to compare the difference of treatment between what one receives in a Germ... Continue reading ...
