The first to ask Bro. Eliseo Soriano was from UAE.

7:31 PM Philippine Time

Bro. Eli clarified that we should not believe that God failed in creating man.  
Job 1:1: "There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil." 
 Luke 1:5-6: "There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judæa, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth. And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. "

The second question comes from Guam about handling peer pressure because she's still young.
Bro. Eli responded (as tweeted by followers of the event):

Why do people commit sin?
  • Because of ignorance: 
I Timothy 1:13: "Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief."
  • Because of temptations from the devil:
I Peter 5:8: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"
  • We have weaknesses in our person:
Matthew 26:41: "Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
A trivia in Philippine history:
 The saying "panahon pa ni Mahoma" refers to prophet Muhammad of the Islam:

The Muslims were in the country first. Even before the Catholics.


8:24 PM Philippine Time
How can the 7th day adventist church be the true church while it is founded by Ellen G. White?
 Only God should build the House:
Psalms 127:1: "Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain."
8:34 PM Philippine Time
Bro. Eliseo Soriano refuted the claim that worshipping during sundays is the "mark of the beast."
He read:
Acts 2:46: "And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, "
..daily includes Sunday.

Noah ate pork!
Genesis 9:3: "Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things."

8:53 PM Philippine Time

"The words of God should not be sold. What has been freely received should be freely given."

9:00 PM Philippine Time


9:10 PM Philippine Time

God can force us to do His will. But He won't do that because He wants us to be willing and be obedient.

Isaiah 1:19: "If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:"


 9:27 PM Philippine Time

Bakit dumarami ang relihion? Dahil ginagawang negosyo. 

Kinakalakal ang miembro:
II Peter 2:1-3:  
"Nguni't may nagsilitaw din naman sa bayan na mga bulaang propeta, na gaya naman sa inyo'y magkakaroon ng mga bulaang guro, na mangagpapasok sa lihim ng mga makakapahamak na mga hiduwang pananampalataya, na itatatuwa pati ang Panginoon na bumili sa kanila, na mangagtataglay sa kanilang sarili ng madaling pagkapahamak.

At maraming magsisisunod sa kanilang mga gawang mahahalay; na dahil sa kanila ay pagsasalitaan ng masama ang daan ng katotohanan.

At sa kasakiman sa mga pakunwaring salita ay ipangangalakal kayo: na ang hatol nga sa kanila mula nang una ay hindi nagluluwat, at ang kanilang kapahamakan ay hindi nagugupiling."

Kinakalakal ang salita:
II Corinthians 2:17: 
Sapagka't hindi kami gaya ng karamihan na kinakalakal ang salita ng Dios: kundi sa pagtatapat, at gaya ng mula sa Dios, sa harapan ng Dios ay nagsasalita kami para kay Cristo.

About the Lord's Supper:

Ang Dios ay mayroong daliri, kamay, bisig, likod, sinapupunan, at pati puwit dahil umuupo sya. 'Puwit' ang gamit sa ating salita ng pang-upo.





 10:05 PM Philippine Time

The Worldwide Bible Exposition was such a success, thanks to God.
