Bro Eli Soriano explains that there are people who are looking for God, though they may not be many.

"Kaya tayo nabubuhay para hanapin ang nagbibigay buhay sa atin." – Bro. Eliseo Soriano.

7:10 PM Philippine Time

God will add everything that we need. But we must first look for God.

Matthew 6:33: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

The word 'seek' in Matt. 6:33 means that you will prioritize God. [The verse is read in different languages and dialects.] #BibleExpo

But what is happening is that God for others is something optional.

For others, God is optional. And when they are in need, when they have troubles, then they look for God, as the Cath. Pasyon says #BibleExpo

"Nagaanyaya kami sa inyo ng makabuluhang pag-aaral mga kababayan para sa isang makabuluhang pag-aaral ng katuwiran ng Dios." – Bro. Eliseo Soriano

If sin can be inherited, then why didn't Abel inherit Adam's sins?

Hebrews 11:4: By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

"Hindi namamana ng anak ang kasalanan ng magulang. Tatalab lang sa'yo yun kung itutuloy mo ang kanyang kasalanan."

In the justice of God, the person who sins is the one who will be answerable. #BibleExpo

Soul and spirit are different from one another.

The Bible says that the Bible became a 'living soul' when God breathed in him the breath of life. (Gen. 2:7) #BibleExpo

Why are there many who did not follow Christ when he was on earth?

John 3:19: And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

The Light that was come into the world is Christ. But men loved darkness, because their works are evil. (John 8:12; 3:19-20) #BibleExpo

It doesn't necessarily mean that if there's a couple that both of them will be saved. Both of them must obey Christ. #BibleExpo

There are so many religious organizations in the Philippines and abroad because it has become a source of income for its pastors!

Isaiah 56:11: Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.

There are many religions because of money, gain, benefit. (2 Cor. 2:17) Many are peddlers of God's words, making money out ot it. #BibleExpo

Bakit dumami ang relihiyon? Ang nag-iisang sagot: Nagtayo sila ng kani-kaniya upang makinabang. (Isa 56:11) #BibleExpo

How would you know if a religion is true? – The teaching is not from the pastor but from the Bible, from God.

John 7:17: If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
John 7:18: He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

 8:31 PM Philippine Time

For something to be true, it has to be complete.

Psalms 119:160: Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

For a Church to be true, even its name has to be correct according to the Bible.

Bro. Soriano is expounding on the importance of the name of the Church for it was given by God. The Church is called in God's name.

A name that must be attached to an organization that is of God is the name of God. (2 Chro. 7:14; Dan. 9:19) #BibleExpo

Ayon sa Kapatid na Eli, ang kaalaman sa Biblia ay di nakukuha ng tao sa kanyang sarili kundi ito'y kaloob mula sa Dios.

Nagpapahayag ng paghanga ang ating bisita sa galing ng Kapatid na Eli sa Biblia. #BibleExpo

The Word of God is given by God. It's a grace, a gift of God, it's something that we can't acquire by our own capability. #BibleExpo

Bro. Eli is answering the question about catholic's celebration of christmas.

The Old Path or Ang Dating Daan was taken from the verse in Jermiah 6:16. That is the good way.

Jeremiah 6:16: Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.

It is the title of the program hosted by Bro. Eli Soriano.

The Old Path is the title of our radio, TV, Internet, satellite program that is now being aired all over the globe. #BibleExpo

The name of the Church in the Bible, which can be read in different languages such as Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, and English is called CHURCH OF GOD.

Although there are a lot of Bible versions written in different languages, we can be sure of its accuracy by going back to the oldest manuscripts.
