"When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom."

"Wisdom’s instruction is to fear the LORD, and humility comes before honor."

nah mao na ni run..hehehehe relax lang ta oi..btaw igo na ning mga ingun ani nga istorya oi...
catholic practices against other christian denomination's practices are just simply differences...
kay kung prehas pa ta tanan..wa nay rason para magsinabtanay ta...kay parehas naman...
the only thing nga parehas nato isip mga kristiyano...kay atong paghigugma sa Ginoo ug sa usag-usa...
best way to show our love for one another is pagrespetuhay..

Matthew 7:21,
21*“Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. 22*Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and expel demons in your name, and perform many powerful works in your name?’ 23*And yet then I will confess to them: I never knew YOU! Get away from me, YOU workers of lawlessness.

Are All Religions Good?
WE LIVE in a world of staggering religious diversity. One recent survey identified 19 major faiths and some 10,000 smaller religions worldwide. This variety offers people unprecedented religious choice. So does it matter which religion you choose?

Some people say that different religions are like different roads leading up a mountain. To them, it does not matter which road they choose, since all roads lead to the same place. They reason that there is only one Almighty God, so all religions must ultimately lead to him.

Do All Roads Lead to God?
What did Jesus Christ, one of the most respected religious teachers in history, say on this subject? “Enter through the narrow gate,” he told his disciples. Why? “For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”—Matthew 7:13, 14, The Holy Bible—New International Version.

Was Jesus really saying that some religions lead “to destruction”? Or was he teaching that only unbelievers are on the broad road, whereas those who believe in God—no matter what their religion—are on the narrow road that leads to life?

Immediately after stating that there are only two roads, Jesus said: “Be careful of false prophets. They come to you looking gentle like sheep, but they are really dangerous like wolves.” (Matthew 7:15, New Century Version) Later he said: “Not everyone who calls me ‘Lord, Lord’ will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only those who do what my Father in heaven wants them to do.” (Matthew 7:21, Today’s English Version) If someone is called a prophet or claims that Jesus is his “Lord,” it is reasonable to say that he is a religious person, not an unbeliever. Clearly, then, Jesus was warning that not all religions are good and not all religious teachers should be trusted.

Is It Possible to Identify the Narrow Road?
Since not all roads lead to God, how can you find among the thousands of options the narrow road that leads to life? Consider this illustration: Imagine that you are lost in a big city. You decide to ask for help. One person confidently tells you to go east. Another urges you to head west. Yet another suggests that you choose whatever direction feels best to you. Finally, a fellow traveler takes out a reliable map and shows you the correct route. He then gives you the map so that you can refer to it along the way. Would you not feel more confident of reaching your destination?
So, too, when it comes to choosing the right religious road, we need a reliable spiritual road map. Does one exist? Yes, it does. That map is the Bible, which declares: “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”—2 Timothy 3:16, King James Version.

You likely have available in your language a translation of the Bible that you can use as a spiritual road map. The publishers of this journal, Jehovah’s Witnesses, produce a reliable Bible translation known as the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures. However, if you are not one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, you may prefer to use other translations when considering the subject of identifying good and bad religion. Therefore, this series of articles quotes from a number of Bible translations that are widely respected by other religious denominations.

As you read the following articles, compare what you know with what the Bible says. Keep in mind Jesus’ words regarding how we can distinguish good religion from bad. He said: “A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.” (Matthew 7:17, 18, Contemporary English Version) Consider just three of the good fruits that the Bible says would identify the “good tree.”

para nako kay Jesus is the only way to salvation..but there's nothing we can do about the differences with other religions...
for example, ako catholic ko..but i do not practice most of the "traditional catholics" do like magpahid ug panyo sa mga rebolto
'cause for me...di na kinahanglan..of course i go to mass,confession,i believe in the holy eucharist in teh sacraments of the catholic chrch..but other than that murag wala na guro.i see people doing it, but i respect them for that..i tried to tell my catholic friends and families nga di naman guro kinahanglan magluhod padung sa altar or unsa pa nang naandan sa katigulangan buhaton
kay Jesus already did it..their answer is kahibaw daw cla ana but it's just something they want to do..
like an offering or for whatever the reason is, i just respect them.other people might see it as idolatry, but no one would really know what's in their hearts..para nako, i already informed them nga di na kinahanglan...but there's nothing i can do between the differences in our convictions..sad to say most people esp the elderly have been practicing these traditions for ages na...
and it's something that is hard to change...so let's hope nga makakita cla nga no need na..and for me the best way of showing them is to understand them..rather than opposing directly 'cause people would find it condemning. Jesus did not condemn those who did not follow His teachings, but He never stopped telling the truth..people eventually people saw that Jesus was real, in the same way that people who are still doing a lot of stuff in order to be saved,like talking to saint's images, etc would also come to know that Jesus is the only way and that these things are...and personally there's nothing wrong with it..it's just a matter of conviction..personally i think this is just for representation purposes and an extra mile like showing how grateful they are for the Lord's passion...some people see it as an idolatry?no one would really know except God..for me the easiest way to see if a person is trully worshipping the Lord in spirit and in truth, is through his actions.

John 4:22, 24
22 YOU worship what YOU do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation originates with the Jews. 23 Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshipers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for, indeed, the Father is looking for suchlike ones to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with spirit and truth.”

John 17:17
Your word is TRUTH

God is a Spirit meaning wala'y tao nakakita niya. and His word is in the Bible, we find truth in the Bible, not from traditions and from the word of men.

we know that it was written in the ten commandments nga dili jud ta pde maghimo or mubuhat ug act of worship sa mga images. Exodus 20:1-17; Deuteronomy 5:4-21

Revelation 22:8,9
Well, I John was the one hearing and seeing these things. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel that had been showing me these things. 9 But he tells me: “Be careful! Do not do that! All I am is a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who are prophets and of those who are observing the words of this scroll. Worship God.



also wala jud kauyon si Jesus anang mga traditions ug mga leader sa religion atong time nga naghimo ug mga traditions.

Matthew 15:1-11
Then there came to Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and scribes, saying: 2 “Why is it your disciples overstep the tradition of the men of former times? For example, they do not wash their hands when about to eat a meal.”
3 In reply he said to them: “Why is it YOU also overstep the commandment of God because of YOUR tradition? 4 For example, God said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘Let him that reviles father or mother end up in death.’ 5 But YOU say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother: “Whatever I have by which you might get benefit from me is a gift dedicated to God,” 6 he must not honor his father at all.’ And so YOU have made the word of God invalid because of YOUR tradition. 7 YOU hypocrites, Isaiah aptly prophesied about YOU, when he said, 8 ‘This people honors me with their lips, yet their heart is far removed from me. 9 It is in vain that they keep worshiping me, because they teach commands of men as doctrines.’” 10 With that he called the crowd near and said to them: “Listen and get the sense of it: 11 Not what enters into [his] mouth defiles a man; but it is what proceeds out of [his] mouth that defiles a man.”

para nako kay dili. ang basehan pod nako naa sa bibliya. gkan sa old testament hangtod sa Revelation wa jud tay makita nga ang mga sumusunod sa Ginoo ga ampo og rebolto. ang ato hinoong makita kay gipang silotan ang katong mga tao nga nagbuhat buhat og imahen nga nag represent kono sa Ginoo.

so if we want to follow the traditions of the early church let's kneel and fold our hands before the unseen God, worship Him in spirit and in truth.
