Matthew 6:33, Philippians 4:19
THE LORD PROVIDES - ADV160

Unexpected Blessing | Short Testimony
First Thank God for this wonderful blessing na magamit sa ministry.
My fiancée and I originally planned to get an ADV 160 through financing. But deep in my heart, I truly desired to pay in full—cash. Though it seemed impossible at that time, I kept declaring it in prayer and with my mouth: "I'll get it in cash," even though I didn’t have the money yet.(alam ng ka churchmate ko at friends ko yan even sa fiancee ko na always ko sinasabi na mag cash kahit in my mind wala pa ako pang cash, pero alam ni Lord yung labour natin sa ministry in Winning souls, i remembered the verse says, Seek Ye first😇)

And now, to make the story short—God granted our desire and prayer! We were able to pay in full for the ADV 160.

I want to sincerely thank the people God used to make this happen, especially Brother (Kabsat) Jerwin and Ate Medi. You are truly a blessing!

We also want to thank HONDA Sto. Tomas Isabela for their professional and very accommodating service. We salute you for assisting us with excellence!

All glory to God!

Lope Roger Velez: A Pentecostal Apologist and Debating Legend

Disclaimer:

This account of debates serves only to proclaim truth, not to endorse debate as evangelism or glorify individuals or denominations. If the truth prevailed all the glory and praises unto our Lord Jesus Christ, We believe souls are won through Bible study and Spirit-led evangelism. While defending our faith is important, our focus is on winning souls, not arguments.

Lope Roger Velez, a licensed pastor with the United Pentecostal Church Philippines, has a long and distinguished career in religious ministry.

Serving as the National Director of the Radio Commission for many years, and currently a Presbyter, Velez remains an active minister even at his advanced age. However, beyond his pastoral duties, Velez is renowned as one of the Philippines' most formidable religious debaters.

A former member of the Iglesia ni Cristo who later converted under the ministry of Pastor W***y Majaducon, Velez became a powerful voice for Oneness Pentecostalism in the country. He has engaged in and won numerous debates against representatives from various denominations, including Baptists, Iglesia ni Cristo ministers, and others.
One of the most talked-about moments in his debating career is his encounter with Eli Soriano. Their debate, which aired on Soriano's own television program, is a subject of much discussion and controversy.

While a video of the debate was reportedly available on YouTube some 15 years ago, it has since been removed.

According to various accounts, the debate's moderator declared Eli Soriano to be the loser. Sources claim that this outcome was unacceptable to members of Soriano's organization, Ang Dating Daan, leading to the video's removal. While no video currently exists to substantiate these claims, anecdotal evidence from former MCGI members suggests that Velez indeed emerged victorious.

One such account comes from a former security staff member of Eli Soriano, a staunch supporter who, after witnessing the debate, reportedly left Ang Dating Daan and joined the United Pentecostal Church Philippines. This individual, whose name remains undisclosed for their safety, has confirmed the widespread knowledge among Soriano's staff of Velez's victory.
The narrative surrounding the video's disappearance is complex.

Some allege that Ang Dating Daan removed it to prevent further defections from their ranks. Conversely, it's claimed that the Iglesia ni Cristo re-uploaded the video to highlight that Soriano was not invincible in debate. The video's current unavailability leaves the exact details of the debate and its outcome open to interpretation and reliant on personal accounts. Despite the lack of concrete evidence, the story of Lope Roger Velez's debate with Eli Soriano has become part of the lore of religious discussions in the Philippines, solidifying Velez's reputation as a powerful and influential debater.

Testimony Regarding a Debate Between Eli Soriano and Lope Roger Velez

Testimony of Ronel Mendiola
Background:

A query was posted online regarding the availability of a video recording of a debate between Eli Soriano and Lope Roger Velez, which reportedly took place in Novaliches in 2005. The individual inquiring expressed disbelief that Soriano could be defeated in a debate and sought the video as evidence of his purported loss.
The inquiry further claimed that Soriano's statement during the cross-examination by Velez, where he compared his deity to a vegetable, led to his emotional breakdown and public humiliation. The inquirer alleged that this event was broadcast live on UNTV and later replayed on the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) program "Ang Pagbubunyag."

Ronel Mendiola responded, stating that he was also searching for the video. He mentioned that INC ministers Edgar Villaso and Leopoldo Guevarra possessed a copy, as they had repeatedly aired it on "Ang Pagbubunyag." Mendiola claimed the video was previously uploaded to YouTube but was taken down following a complaint from Soriano.

Further Testimony from Ronel Mendiola:

Mendiola added that he personally witnessed the debate in Novaliches around 2005, during which Soriano was allegedly ridiculed and wept. He further claimed that Soriano, surrounded by his security detail, challenged Velez to a physical altercation. Mendiola stated that Villaso and Guevarra are INC ministers who host the Net25 program "Ang Pagbubunyag." He asserted that Soriano's defeat in the debate was evident, even acknowledged by members of Soriano's personal staff. Mendiola claimed to have conversed with Bert Miranda, Soriano's former head of security, who corroborated the account of the debate.

Mendiola reiterated the request for the video recording of the debate, emphasizing its potential value in countering what he termed as Soriano's falsehoods.

This one the excerpt of their debate since there is no actual footage was saved:

Further Testimony from Ronel Mendiola Regarding the Debate

Mendiola provided additional details about the debate, stating that the topic was engaging. He recounted Soriano's analogy comparing God and Christ to a married couple, or a halved coconut, emphasizing their oneness despite distinct identities. Soriano reportedly cited Christ's statement, "He who has seen me has seen the Father," as evidence of this analogy.

During the cross-examination, Pastor Velez posed a hypothetical scenario to Soriano: If a man were to leave his family, travel to a distant land, reside there for an extended period, and start a new family, could he, upon meeting his father again, claim that seeing him was equivalent to seeing his new wife?
Soriano was allegedly unable to provide a satisfactory response to this analogy. He then made a statement comparing his deity to a vegetable, describing it as a single entity with multiple components, including salt and MSG.
Pastor Velez seized upon this statement, highlighting it to the audience and quoting Isaiah, where God asks whom He should be compared to.
At this point, Soriano reportedly wept and challenged Velez to a physical altercation, while his own members mocked him.

The moderator then reminded Soriano of their earlier agreement to accept defeat, asking him what he wanted to happen since he had clearly lost the debate. Soriano reportedly responded by shouting that he could not accept the outcome.

Following the debate between Eli Soriano and Pastor Lope Roger Velez, which reportedly resulted in Soriano's defeat, Soriano requested a rematch. However, he declined to face Pastor Lope Roger Velez again. Instead, Pastor W***y Majaducon was chosen as his opponent.

This subsequent debate took place, but Soriano was unable to recover from his previous loss. Pastor W***y Majaducon, also a skilled debater, effectively challenged Soriano on the topics of baptism in Acts 2:38 and the Godhead in John 14:7-10. According to debate analysts, Soriano was clearly at a disadvantage. They noted that the venue was neutral, and Soriano's characteristic "squatter style" of debate, including shouting, was ineffective against the seasoned debater W***y Majaducon.

The full video of the debate between W***y Majaducon and Eli Soriano is available on YouTube.

Reminder:

The recounting of this testimony, including details of debates, is not intended as an endorsement of debate as a primary method of evangelism, nor is it meant to glorify any individual as a "winner." Our sole purpose is the proclamation of truth. We firmly believe that debate is not the most effective means of winning souls. Rather, we are called to win souls through loving engagement with individuals, primarily through Bible studies and evangelism. We recognize that without the Lord, His Word, and the transformative power of His Spirit touching the human heart, no amount of debate skill or rhetorical ability can truly win a soul. We are merely instruments in God's hands.
This account is not a suggestion that our brothers and sisters should actively engage in debating. Our focus should remain on evangelism. However, in proclaiming the truth, we acknowledge the importance of being able to defend it and answer questions about our faith, much like the pioneers and preachers of the past. Pastors Ompad, Lope Roger Velez, and W***y Majaducon serve as examples of individuals who loved the truth, proclaimed it, and defended it with their lives and unwavering love for God and lost souls. Their examples illustrate the importance of being prepared to articulate and defend one's faith, not for the sake of argument, but for the sake of truth and the salvation of souls.

18/01/2025

"This is my response to the groups who call themselves 'Minions' in their disagreements with the quotation by Sir David k. Bernard book, that I posted here on Facebook."

James Bloodworth(Delgado, I understand your point, and I understand that you are against the statement of our General Supperintendent Rev. David K. Bernard. bro, but kindly take a look at the title. The topic is about Jesus' Humanity and Divinity.

I agree with some of the points you raised, but there are misinterpretations in what you said regarding the qoutation of David bernard in His book. Perhaps you missed the main point. We are not saying that the Name itself is God, because there are many people named Jesus, even in our present time. Your argument shows a misunderstanding of the post, and it seems you may not have read the title carefully.

Regarding what you said about certain aspects being lacking, I understand your point, but that’s another misinterpretation of what was stated in the post. The post’s title is "Jesus' Humanity and Divinity," where we discuss a simple and basic explanation of His two natures.

This doesn’t mean that when we discuss one of His natures, we are denying the other. That’s not the case. For example, when we say that Jesus died as a man, it doesn’t mean we dont believe that Jesus is God. Likewise, when Jesus raised the dead, it doesn't mean we dont believe that he is human. We believe that Jesus is both God and man. YES we believe. Jesus is the revealed name of the one true God the Father of old testament in his incarnate person as the Son. The Son(JESUS) Is God's Manifestation in the Flesh( John 1:1,14. 1 Timothy 3:16, Colossians 2:9-10)

We don’t believe in the teaching or statement that "Jesus is just a man," as that denies His divinity.

Kindly read the title first, so we stay on topic and avoid unnecessary diversions. Thank you.

To all memeber of the group of minions:

We believe that Jesus is the revealed name of God, God manifested in the flesh and called Son(Gal.4:4). So when we say "Son," it's God's manifestation in the flesh.
As the Father, He is the one true God from everlasting. This God acquired a body and blood for our salvation. So the body and blood belong to Him, but this doesn't mean that the body and blood are God. If you interpret it that way, when the Bible says Christ was put to death in the flesh, you might mistakenly think that God died because the flesh is also God. That's a wrong interpretation.

Jesus is both God and Man, but He died as a Man, not as God. Therefore, we cannot say that God died or that God died in human form.

Here’s my question to your group, which you call the "Minions":

In your term, "God died in human form," does God die?

Your answer would likely be, "We didn’t say God dies, but that God died as a man, not as God."

Next question for clarification: If God died not as God, is there such a thing as a God who is not God? Because that’s implied. When we talk about Jesus and say that He is God, He is truly God. How can there be a God who is not God?
And its implied when we say God it talks about himslelf as God.
Also, if God died in human form, then who is the God in the form of God that raised God died in human form?"
There's clearly something wrong with the terminology you're using. Lets abide on what the bible says.

"My beloved brethren, let us humble ourselves and avoid the STRAWMAN FALLACY so that we can understand each other. The issue here is about the topic of GOD DYING in human form. This is not about whether Jesus is God or not, as we all believe that Jesus is God."Thank you and God bless

We should simply confess what the Bible teaches.
(1) There is one God with no distinction of persons.
(2) Jesus is the one true God manifested in the flesh. He is both God and human at the same time. The fullness of the Godhead is in Him.
(3) As a human, Jesus died, was, buried, and rose again for our salvation. In eternity, He continues to be God manifested in glorified human identity.
So Jesus died as a human. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself (2 Cor 5:19), so God participated in that human death.

Ephesians 4:6
[6]One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
John 1:14
[14]And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
1 Timothy 3:16
[16]And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Colossians 2:9-10
[9]For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
[10]And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
1 Peter 3:18
[18]For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

The Oneness of God
Volume 1 Page 86
By Rev. David K. Bernard

👉JESUS-Humanity and Divinity👈
The name Jesus refers to the eternal Spirit of God (the Father) dwelling in the flesh. We can use the name Jesus to describe either one of His two natures or both. For example, when we say Jesus died on the cross, we mean His flesh died on the cross. When we say Jesus lives in our hearts, we mean His Spirit is there

Hebrews 5:7
[7]Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
1 Peter 3:18
[18]For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

Romans 8:9-11
[9]But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
[10]And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
[11]But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
