Did Jesus Founded a Religion?



Sa pagkakataong ito mga kapatid ay atin namang sasagutin ang katanongan na ito.



Sa panahon natin kasi ngayon ay marami sa atin ang nalilito ng dahil sa dami ng relihiyon sa buong mundo.


Ibat- ibang pamamaraan ang ginagawa upang tayo ay paniwalain na sila ang tunay na Relihiyong tatag ni Cristo.


Para malaman natin kung totoong nag tatag nga ba si Cristo ng Relihiyon, at kung anong relihiyon ito ay dapat muna nating malaman ang kahulogan ng Religion.



Hango sa latin na “Religare” at ang kahulogan ay “To Bind”


Meron ba tayong mababasa sa Bible na nagtatag si Cristo ng Relihiyon?


Meron po mga kapatid, tandaan po natin ang kahulogan ng Relihiyon ay “To bind”


I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and what you unbind on earth shall be unbound in heaven.“
Matthew 16:19


Sa pamamagitan po ni Apostol Pedro nag tatag ng Relihiyon si Cristo.


Ang relihiyong tatag ni Cristo ay tinawag na Cristiano


25Nagpunta si Bernabe sa Tarso upang hanapin si Saulo, 26at nang kanyang matagpuan ay isinama niya ito sa Antioquia. Isang taon silang nanatili roon na kasa-kasama ng iglesya, at nagtuturo sa maraming tao. Doon sa Antioquia unang tinawag na Cristiano ang mga tagasunod ni Jesus.
Mga Gawa 11:25-26


Sa Antioquia unang tinawag na Cristiano ang relihiyong tatag ni Cristo.


Ang Obispo sa Antioquia noong first century na si Ignatius ay gumamit ng term na “Catholic Church”



Mga kapatid isang malinaw na kasagutan po sa tanong kung si Cristo ba ay nagtatag ng “relihiyon”


Napatunayan po natin na nagtatag nga si Cristo ng relihiyon sa pamamagitan ni San Pedro Apostol (Mateo 16:19).


At ang relihiyong ito po ay unang tinawag na Cristiano sa Antioquia.
(Mga gawa 11:25-26)


Hindi naman lingid sa ating kaalaman na hindi lahat ng pangyayari sa mga apostol ay mabababasa sa biblia.


At sa pagtuklas ng katotohanan ay hindi base sa Sola Scriptura o Bible alone.

14Umaasa akong magkikita tayo sa lalong madaling panahon, ngunit isinulat ko ang mga ito 15upang kung hindi man ako makarating agad ay malaman mo kung ano ang dapat na maging ugali ng mga taong kabilang sa sambahayan ng Diyos na buháy, sa iglesya na haligi at saligan ng katotohanan. 16Hindi maikakaila na napakadakila ng hiwaga ng ating relihiyon:
Siya'y nahayag nang maging tao,
pinatunayang matuwid ng Espiritu, at nakita ng mga anghel.
Ipinangaral sa mga Hentil,
pinaniwalaan ng lahat, at itinaas sa kalangitan.
1 Timoteo 3:14-16



Ang relihiyong tatag ni Cristo ang magtuturo sa atin ng katotohan. At pag-aralan din natin ang kasaysayan.


“Alamin mo ang mga nagdaang kasaysayan,
itanong sa matatanda ang kaalamang natuklasan.
Job 8:8


Napag alaman sa kasaysayan na ang Obispo ng Antioquia ang unang gumamit sa terminong “Catholic Church” sa kanyang sulat sa Smyrna.


Ang Smyrna ay kabilang sa pitong simbahan na tinukoy sa Revelation.


""Write down all that you see, in a book, and send it to the seven Churches of Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.""
- Revelation 1,11


Papuri sa Diyos!

DO CATHOLICS BELIEVE IN THE RAPTURE?

by: Br. Duane M. Cartujano The idea of "rapture" seems to come from a literal reading of 1 Thessalonians 4:17, where St. Paul is trying to explain how those who already have died will be raised and share in the events of Christ's second coming, which he expected very soon. He imagines the second coming in very dramatic terms (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18); in this scenario, the dead will first be raised, then the living will also be "caught up" ( = rapture) to be with the Lord. Some literalist Evangelicals in the 20th century expanded this verse into a whole scenario for the end of the world, which they promote. This sense of the “rapture” is a belief held by some Christians, especially fundamentalists. It is not a term generally used by the Catholic Church. So, in the fundamentalist sense, Catholics don’t really have our own word, since we don’t see things in the same way as the fundamentalists. According to Craig S. Keener, a Protestant scholar, in his book, ...

OUR PURPOSE OF EXISTENCE

  If we are about to ask this question “What is your purpose of existence?” maybe some will say; “To give shelter, food, education to my family (if he’s a husband), or some will say; to be a good child. But all of this answer was the reality that men are looking for the earthly needs. Perhaps because we are in this world we are thinking of worldly things.    But now we will know the real reason of our existence here on earth. We will base in the sacred scripture <Bible> to know the real existence of us. Here are the two reasons that I can share to everyone; 1.    Man and women are created by GOD to first, worship Him. “all those called by my name all I have created for my glory.” <Isaiah 43:7> 2.    Man and women are created by GOD to second, dominion His creation. So God created man in his image; in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.   God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and i...

Why do we go to Confession?

We will discuss the confession to a priest in giving a meaning of acronyms, CONFESS. C - Christ established the Sacrament of Confession. John 20:21-23 Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father sent me, so I send you.” 22 Then he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive people's sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.” Since He knows that all people have weaknesses Mathew 26:41 Keep watch and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Other religions used Mark 2:7 How does he dare talk like this? This is blasphemy! God is the only one who can forgive sins!", to disprove the confession to priests but this is not the statement of God but the misquotation of hypocrite teachers who oppose Jesus. O - overcome the world In our journey in this world, there are things that distract our attention to God so many of us are tempted and become materialistic. T...
