Yvette Espiritu’s Testimony of Leaving the Iglesia Ni Manalo Cult

As it’s Thursday-Friday (which I may drop off random past events in review), this is a former Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) member. The INC may seem to be just another church. However, like Mormonism, Felix Manalo was pretty much like Joseph Smith. Manalo and Smith organized religious cults that seem harmless but actually control their members through fear and intimidation. This testimony by Yvette Espiritu reveals the cultish mentality of the INC. Like one of its biggest rivals Roman Catholicism, the INC makes people fear man more than God, love their religious leaders more than God (as evidenced by their actions), and can be spotted with their rotten fruit.

A Look Back at the Fifth Estate and the Iglesia Ni Cristo Intimidation

I may devote either Thursday or Friday to reviewing some random past events in this blog. I remember being intimidated by arrogant INC ministers some time ago. Fortunately, by God’s grace and intervention, the event never turned bloody. However, the encounter tempted them to punch them which could’ve escalated things. They thought I was a Baptist pastor. One of the ministers warned about punching me. Looking at this interview at CNBC, it’s really frightening. I was lucky not to be at Taft Avenue where one of Felix Manalo’s grandchildren, Eduardo Manalo is the current executive minister. INC still denies they did this and let’s give them the benefit of the doubt. However, listening to this, I have my stand that the punched holes were approved by the INC. Take note that I’m writing this out of love for the lost people of the INC.

Reviewing Dr. James R. White’s Debate with INC Minister Jose Ventilacion

Even if an incident I had with some arrogant Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) ministers was already more than a decade ago, there are times I wish I threw my fist. I was rebuked by a Baptist pastor not to stoop down to their level. Funny enough, those arrogant INC ministers thought I was a Baptist pastor a that time. I watched the three-hour formal debate between Reformed Baptist preacher James R. White (who I admired even while I was a KJV Only) and INC minister Jose Ventilacion.
