Sher
Lock further claims that “For as long as due honor to a mother is not accorded,
the church will remain in crisis. Once resolved, the church will be in peace”.
Now
what happened to the charges of corruption and cover ups hurled against the
Sanggunian? Were they all related to the accusation that Bro. Eduardo is allegedly
a disrespectful son to his mother? That a talk with his mother (which they now
expanded to include the INC Defenders) would instantly wipe away all those charges
and accusations posted in the social media. As if nothing happened and as if no
one saw those accusations against the Sanggunian. As if the ugly portrayal of
the Sanggunian and the bad image of the Church that they painted against them
would be, in a snap, forgotten by nonmembers of Church from all across the
globe. What is that? A “neuralizer” from the Men In Black movie—a device that produces
“a bright flash which erases the memories of the past hours, days, weeks,
months or years, depending on the chosen settings” (Wikipedia).
I
know that Rovic “Sher Lock” Canono is a pathological liar but now I know that
he is also extra-ordinarily stupid (based on the term used by Antonio
Ebangelista in his recent post).
Rovic
Canono also said that “this church crisis will soon end with the reconciliatory
move of one humble son reaching out to a longing and loving mother.”
Actually,
what Rovic Canono was saying is this, “You see the reason we invented lies and
hurled non-stop accusations against the Sanggunian is because Bro. Eduardo does
not like to talk to his mom? But the moment he takes the initiative to talk to
his mom and to the INC defenders, this will crisis be over. Voila! This church
is at peace again.” The Church Administration is precise in branding them
spiritual terrorists based on these following verses:
“As
it is, there’s not much chance of that. You know for yourselves that we’re not
much to look at. We’ve been surrounded and battered by troubles, but we’re not
demoralized; we’re not sure what to do, but we know that God knows what to do;
we’ve been spiritually terrorized, but God hasn’t left our side; we’ve been
thrown down, but we haven’t broken” (2 Cor. 4:8-9 MSG).
The
insinuation of Rovic Canono is a plain admission that the root of this crisis
lies with Mrs. Tenny, on her failure to recognize the authority of his son as
the present Executive Minister of the Iglesia Ni Cristo. The crisis stems from
her insistence that Bro. Eduardo has to give in to her wishes as she is his
mother and the wife of Bro. Erdy, his father. They connived to invent and
concoct lies which they could use as a perceived leverage or a bargaining chip against
the Executive Minister. They thought such manipulative tactics will work. But
they were wrong.
Bro.
Eduardo V. Manalo chose the Church over them. He stood his ground in doing what
is right and best for the Church even to the point of sacrificing his love for
his mother and siblings who were expelled. That is actually the trait of God’s faithful
servants like Abraham (who was prepared to sacrifice his own son), Moses (who
sacrificed his royal status in Egpyt), Apostle Paul (who sacrifice his social
standing and influence) and most of all, our Lord Jesus Christ (who sacrificed
His own precious life for the sake of the Church).
Tons
of personal attacks and ridicules hurled against the Executive Minister and against
the ministers and evangelical workers, who stood by his side to defend him, are
nothing compared to the ridicule, mockery, humilation, whips and beatings that
Christ endured up to the point of His crucifixion.
This
appeal made by Rovic Canono is an open admission of defeat sensing that they
are losing followers as the truth behind their rebellion continues to unravel.
I
would like to end this series of article bearing the above-mentioned title by asking:
From
whom did Rovic Canono get the idea that Bro. Eduardo must honor first his
mother before he can expect his mother to follow him; that honoring one’s
mother is higher than obedience to the Executive Minister? Was it only a
figment of his imagination? Or someone else is behind this? Could it be the
expelled ministers or could this directly come from the mother herself, Mrs.
Tenny using Rovic “Sher Lock” Canono as a conduit to spread a brand new
doctrine which contradicts the teaching taught even by the earlier Executive
Ministers of the Iglesia Ni Cristo?
Granting
that this is just a pure invention of Rovic Canono, but why did the expelled
ministers allow him to post this on his Facebook wall? Sher Lock is their
friend, so why not reprimand him? Why is Antonio Ebangelista SILENT AGAIN when a
graver form of corruption is involved—as in spiritual corruption through the
invention of false beliefs by Rovic Canono? Rovic Canono had not even become a
minister of the gospel, then why did Isaias Samson, Jr. and Luisito Cayabyab among
others allow him to interpret matters concerning doctrines? Why has their
perceived “bravado”quickly vanished when it comes to Sher Lock to the point of
allowing him to spread a corrupt doctrine?
Well on that point,
your guess is as good as mine. They are not really after the truth. They share
the same goal and that is to disrupt the Church and sow divisions within it in
exchange for material benefits. They are the real cowards and liars who are
bound to be punished in the lake of fire when the day of judgment comes (Rev.
21:8).
If
Mrs. Tenny would really like to see the end of this crisis that she and her
associates have started, then what is left for her is to return to the Church
unconditionally. As she was capable of expressing herself through an audio
recording before, she could also use the same media in order to make that
appeal to the Executive Minister of the Iglesia Ni Cristo. At the same time,
she should also make an appeal to her associates to put an end to their
malicious attacks against the Church and the Church Administration. I believe
when that happens, a positive chain of events will be in motion.
