WHO WOULD YOU RATHER BELIEVE?
Evidences refuting the allegation that our offerings in the United States are being stolen are overwhelming



 THE End-Time Antichrists (the “fallen angels”) claim that there is corruption today inside the Church Of Christ. Mr. Vincent Florida, an expelled minister, claims that “cash donations were routinely left out of the tax reports filed by the church with the US government. He says only checks were counted, and INC members were told to convert their donations to $100 bills that were then turned over directly to church auditors”:

“ANOTHER DAY, another complaint against the Iglesia ni Cristo. This time, on top of the serious allegations of illegal detention and grave coercion filed by former ministers against the INC hierarchy, a complaint for tax fraud has been filed with the United States’ Internal Revenue Service by another minister—a move that has the potential to dramatically expand the public scrutiny that the church has tried desperately to treat cavalierly and elude all this time…
“The United States’ IRS has not yet announced an inquiry into the tax fraud complaint filed by Vincent Florida, but his allegations against the church are anything but frivolous. Florida, 65, a former minister in the INC Northern Virginia congregation, claims that cash donations were routinely left out of the tax reports filed by the church with the US government. He says only checks were counted, and INC members were told to convert their donations to $100 bills that were then turned over directly to church auditors. For the past six years, according to Florida, some $150,000 was remitted to INC auditor Glicerio Santos Jr. four times a year—“with no paper trail,” apparently because, if Florida is to be believed, the money was spirited aboard a private plane that Santos, along with INC executive director Eduardo Manalo and other top church officials regularly use on their pastoral visits to the United States.”

Florida further claims that “For the past six years…some $150,000 was remitted to INC auditor Glicerio Santos Jr. four times a year—‘with no paper trail,’ apparently because, if Florida is to be believed, the money was spirited aboard a private plane that Santos, along with INC executive director Eduardo Manalo and other top church officials regularly use on their pastoral visits to the United States.” Butm does Florida has concrete proof about this? None. It is only based on his “belief” – thus, a hearsay, an opinion.

Together with Isaias Samson Jr., they claim that “some officers of the church maintained personal and unauthorized offshore bank accounts in the Cayman Islands or in Switzerland, as well as charges that its leaders were skimming cash off member collections in the United States.” Again, do they have concrete evidences about this? None. Florida said in an interview by the Inquirer, “that is what I heard.”

Is the allegation true that the offerings of the members of the Church in the United States are being stolen?

Now who would you rather believe, Mr. Isaias Samson Jr. and Mr. Vincent Florida whose accusations are based on hearsay and without concrete proof? Or this?


Truly, the evidences refuting the allegation that our offerings in the United States are being stolen are overwhelming.

  2. I feel very proud that I have seen this new buildings for the Glory of GOD in Heaven for the first time....But I never have any doubts for the Church's administration about the hearsay, false poisonous information circulated by those thieves, swindlers and snake tongued individuals who were kicked out of the Iglesia Ni Cristo for their deliberate wrongdoings. I pray to GOD that He will smite them, let the earth swallow them whole but also give them the chance to comeback as He wills.

  3. What a great blog. These are REAL PROOFS that the NO FORCE OFFERINGS of the brethren have succeeded in doing. Only fools and those who have been hovered by the demon will believe the words of the EXPELLED ministers, evangelical workers, and members. First of all, they were already expelled which is tantamount to being unholy and being under the control of the devil. Another point: it is very UNLIKELY for the Church Administration to order the brethren to bring EXACT AMOUNTS OF MONEY (like the alleged $100) because it will then go against the doctrine of the Church which states that OFFERINGS ARE VOLUNTARY and the HEART DECIDES ON HOW MUCH YOU WILL OFFER.

    Truly, these EXPELLED MEMBERS are to pity because they have been so DROWNED WITH THEIR AMBITION to be famous and to be able to replace the Council of Elders appointed by our Bro. Eduardo. They were subjected to the power of the demon. Nonetheless, we still need to PRAY FOR THEIR ENLIGHTENMENT so that more people would be saved which is the will of God in these last days. May God bless all the brethren around the world. May He give them the knowledge and understanding before making a decision they would regret like joining such BREAK AWAY GROUPS. May God also bless you, Bro. Blogger.
