Response to
Bro. Marlex Cantor’s Article
Bro.
Cantor, you are correct in using the words “expelled dissenters” because the
ministers were indeed expelled when they dissented and did not follow the
majority in the evil works of darkness but instead have gladly obeyed God’s
commandment to "expose them". But you erred
in saying that the ministers are rebellious just because they were in
compliance with the commandments of God.
If obeying God's commandment is rebellion, then will you also say
the same of what Apostle Peter said when he declared that “we ought to obey God
first than men”?
Again, Bro.
Cantor you erred in calling the small remnant as a “club” because there is nothing
in the prophecy that say it is.
Likewise, Bro. Jon never mention in the bible study that “it
doesn’t matter that the prophecy about the small remnant was not taught by the
Messenger and Bro. EGM.” This early, it appears that Bro. Cantor
is motivated by a desire to deceive his readers rather than to enlighten. He must have forgotten that he is a minister
of the gospel. It is worth mentioning that the Satan is described by the Bible as "the deceiver of the world." In this response, we will
dissect line by line what Bro. Cantor has presented or misrepresented and will
oppose vehemently if the same are paradoxically and diametrically opposed to
the words of God.
He
said: This shows…
1.Their flat-out admission that they are teaching a
different gospel since their claim to being the prophesied small remnant was
NOT TAUGHT by the Messenger and Bro. EGM.
Answer:
Bro.
Cantor’s understanding of the bible is obviously flawed. In his own erroneous interpretation, it can
be deduced that if the words of God written in the bible was not taught by the
Messenger and Bro. EGM, those amount to a different gospel. That, certainly is a misinterpretation of Apostle
Paul’s teachings written in Galatians 1:8 that says:
“But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a
gospel contrary
to that which we [originally] preached to you, let him be condemned to
destruction!”
Bro.
Cantor, must be reminded that what Apostle Paul was warning the Galatians is of
a gospel that is contrary to
what they have originally preached which is not really another gospel but a
counterfeit teaching from a distorted gospel of Christ. This is what is written in verses 6 to 7 of
the same book:
I am astonished and extremely
irritated that you are so quickly shifting your allegiance and deserting Him
who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different [even contrary] gospel; 7 which is
really not another [gospel]; but there are [obviously] [a]some [people masquerading as teachers] who
are disturbing and confusing you [with a misleading, counterfeit
teaching] and want to distort the gospel of Christ [twisting it into something
which it absolutely is not].
We, the true defenders are matured enough to distinguish
the true gospel from a distorted one. The Lord Jesus has given us the wisdom, the discernment thereof that He promised to His true followers. (Luke 21:15-18) A lot of times in the INC of EVM, the verses
may not have been distorted but the applications thereof are obviously diverted
thus qualifying them to be that of another gospel. We love and respect the sugo and Ka EGM but
what Bro. Cantor is trying to project in his article is placing them ahead of
God and our Lord Jesus Christ. We have
always been taught to put God first in our life and our Lord Jesus also taught
that a servant is no greater than his master.
We are all servants and that include both the sugo and Ka Erdy. We are no greater than our master who is our
Almighty God Himself and our Lord Jesus Christ.
"....for i will give you the right words and such wisdom that none of
your opponents will be able to reply or refute you! Even those closest to you - your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends - will betray you. They will even kill you some of you. And everyone will hate you because you are my followers. But not a hair of your head will perish."

2. Their temerity and conceitedness in ASSERTING THAT
THEY KNOW BETTER than the Messenger and Ka Erdy and in usurping the authority
to preach the gospel, which they have lost when they abandoned and were removed
from the ministry and the Church.
Answer:
Such a statement is totally false and
irresponsible. The true ministers that
were expelled for siding w
“of which I became a minister according to the
gift of the grace of God given to me by the effective working of His power."
The ministry is God's gift of grace given to His people by the effective working of His power. When will God take back this gift that he has given? This
is what is documented in Psalm 50:16-24:
But to the wicked God says:
“What right have you to declare My statutes,
Or take My covenant in your mouth,
17 Seeing you hate instruction
And cast My words behind you?
18 When you saw a thief, you consented[c] with him,
And have been a partaker with adulterers.
19 You give your mouth to evil,
And your tongue frames deceit.
20 You sit and speak against your brother;
You slander your own mother’s son.
“What right have you to declare My statutes,
Or take My covenant in your mouth,
17 Seeing you hate instruction
And cast My words behind you?
18 When you saw a thief, you consented[c] with him,
And have been a partaker with adulterers.
19 You give your mouth to evil,
And your tongue frames deceit.
20 You sit and speak against your brother;
You slander your own mother’s son.
The verses
speak clearly; God has taken away the minister’s right to declare His statutes
when he turns wicked, when he hates instruction, when they consented with a
thief and had become partakers with adulterers, when they give their mouth to
evil and their tongue frames deceit, when they sit and speak against their
brother and slander their own mother’s son.
Clear as a whistle! Who, therefore have already lost their right to preach God’s word? The bible points an accusing finger on the ministers in the INC of EVM. They are the recipients of God's gift of grace but in a sudden twist of fate, have not lifted a finger to oppose the evil and corruption in the Church. Now that we have ascertained who truly have
lost their right to preach the gospel, the other contentions of Bro. Cantor are
clearly negated by the fact that he is among those whose right to preach has
been withdrawn by God but for the sake of clarity, we shall continue dissecting
his statements.
He said further that we have forgotten that it was the
Messenger who holds the seal. No, we did
not forget and never will. You are
correct, the ministers and workers who are with the messenger in the sealing
function are inside the Church, the true Church of Christ under the
administration of the sugo and Ka Erdy and not the institution of EVM. What you are forgetting Bro. Cantor is the
stewardship or administration in the true Church of Christ came from God (Colossians
1:25) and therefore, the Administrator must also come from God. In the case of EVM, you and I know that he
has no authority as Executive Minister for not complying with the provisions of
the Amended Articles of Incorporation of the INC. In view thereof, it is our firm belief that
the ministers who were expelled from the synagogue but are very much active
members of the body of our Lord Jesus Christ did not lose their right to preach
the gospel. And as discussed above, the
ministers who turned their backs on God and have become wicked are the ones
that no longer have that right.
4 I now rejoice in my
sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions
of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church, 25 of which I
became a minister according to the [a]stewardship from God which was given to me for
you, to fulfill the word of God. (Col 1:25)
3. Their ignorance of God’s words. Christ taught that
the understanding of the mystery of God’s words is given only to the messengers
of God. Those who are outside the confines of such divine commissioning can
only hear and see but not understand (Mark 4:11-12). Not among those sent by
God, they have no understanding of the true gospel, much less the authority to
preach it (Rom. 10:14- 15).
Answer:
There is no argument;
the messengers of God were given the understanding of the mystery of the
kingdom of God and if I may add, it includes those that were sealed. Likewise, there is no argument concerning
these ministers who stood up on the side of God’s righteousness. They continue to manifest the wisdom and
understanding that God has given them unlike the corrupt and wicked ministers
who read verses from the bible but deliberately divert its application for the
glory of EVM.
Bro. Cantor said further
that the ministers are totally contradicting not just themselves but the
biblical truths that the sugo and Ka Erdy taught. Again, it will lend credence to his statement
if only he was able to show at least one teaching that the ministers
contradict. Preaching the words of God
written in the bible is a sworn duty of every minister. It was God who appointed them as ministers
and preaching the gospel is their covenant with Him. Do not think for a minute Bro. Cantor that
the INC of EVM has the monopoly of the right to preach the words of God. As
mentioned in Psalm 50:16-24, God has already withdrawn your right to preach His
words, ministers turned wicked when you opted to obey a man.
4. Their being devoid of the Holy Spirit. Christ
clearly stated that those who are of the world cannot receive or accept the
Holy Spirit (John 14:17). Those who are separate from Christ (separated or
expelled from the Church) are of the world (Eph. 2:12).
Answer:
Who between the expelled
ministers and the ministers in the INC of EVM are devoid of the Holy
Spirit? Let us cite a specific
example. In the prayers of the wicked
ministers this is what they are asking God to do:
“Amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa puksain mo sila”
Where on earth can you
find ministers presenting themselves as men of God but is actually ordering God
to commit murder? It was God Himself
who commanded “Thou Shall Not Kill” yet these evil ministers are asking God to
commit what He has forbidden. What a way
to blaspheme God ha! Now tell us Bro.
Cantor if these ministers are devoid of the Holy Spirit or not. To me even their sanity had left them
already. That is what happens if you
switch loyalty from God to man.
This last statement of
Bro. Cantor will really make people laugh it bounced back straight to them. He said:
“There used to be false prophets among God's
people, just as you will have some FALSE TEACHERS in your group. They will
secretly TEACH THINGS THAT ARE WRONG -- teachings that will CAUSE PEOPLE TO BE
LOST. They will even refuse to accept the Master, Jesus, who bought their
freedom. So they will bring quick ruin on themselves. … THOSE FALSE TEACHERS
ONLY WANT YOUR MONEY, so THEY WILL USE YOU BY TELLING YOU LIES. Their judgment
spoken against them long ago is still coming, and their ruin is certain.” (II Peter
2:1, 3 NCV)
The bible is clear, Bro.
Cantor that the false prophets are among God’s people. They were the ones who took over from the Apostles
in the First Century Church of Christ. They
were those who led the Church to Apostasy.
They are the wolves in sheep’s clothing.
In our time, they are the ministers who took over the helm from Ka
Erdy. The ministers who are asking God
to kill, leaders who planted hate in the minds of the gullible brethren. These are the ministers who instead of
uniting have divided the friends and families in the Church, these are
ministers who will never neglect to exact money and more money from the
brethren with their never-ending special offerings. They are those who teach that it is ok to disrespect
parents. They continue to lie to the brethren about how they plunged the Church
into indebtedness with billions of pesos that they owe to the banks. They have the temerity to mortgage the
properties of the Church that were already offered to God hence those are no
longer the Church’s properties but God’s.
It is never their intention to glorify God but man as evidenced by those
Guinness records.
What about the expelled
ministers? Did any one of them commit any
of the despicable acts mentioned above?
No, not one. Remember; in the
verse you used the false teachers mentioned are “in your group”. We, the true defenders are no longer in your
group. We obeyed the biblical
exhortation written in Ephesians 5:11 and 2 Corinthians 6:17 that says:
“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of
darkness, but rather expose
them.”
“And
so the Lord says, “You must leave them and separate yourselves from them. Have
nothing to do with what is unclean, and I will accept you.”
Bro. Cantor, you need
not look elsewhere, just look inside your group for it is not hard to find out
who among you are the false teachers.
Why? Because you all teach the
same lesson as per the teachings that your leaders have crafted and wanted you
all to preach. You and your group are
the fulfillment of the new wolves in sheep’s clothing. You are trying to complete the Apostasy of
the INC but you will not succeed because God placed us here; the small remnant.
