Still searching for that

one true meaning of life?


Then this is it!

Follow
JESUS in his MISSION
of bringing LIFE to the world.
Jesus said:
“Then you will know the truth and the
truth will set you free.”

But has the world really been set free?


I don’t think so. If anything, the world is
headed for destruction—not renewal.

Why this is so?

It is because it is all “lies and hypocrisies”


the world has known—
not the “real truths” of Jesus.

JESUS IS YET DEAD!


For 2000 years now, Jesus has but remained
buried in his tomb, by the perpetration of the
very religion that is supposed to propagate
his truths.

UNLESS WE RESURRECT JESUS AND HIS


MISSION NOW FROM THE DEAD,
our world is but doomed to an irreversible
destruction.
Amen.
1. THE BOOK

Peace be with you, my friend!

My name is RODOLFO MARTIN VITANGCOL. I was a former


seminarian [spent my high school years in the seminary],
worked with Bank of America for six years as my first job,
embarked on a selling career, then became a Trainer of
behavioral programs such as Leadership, Salesmanship,
Strategic Planning, and Work Values & Attitude—delivering
them to various companies in the Philippines.

Recently, I have finished writing a book. The title of the


book is:

“THE 12 TRUTHS THAT JESUS REVEALED


TO SET THE WORLD FREE
BUT WHICH WERE MALICIOUSLY TURNED
UPSIDE DOWN
BY CHRISTIANITY”

From the title alone, it is expected that the book will


immediately be condemned by the church leaders as
heretical and dismissed as plain rubbish. But this is what I
can say: truths even when called “rubbish” shall produce
life, but rubbish even when called “truths” can only produce
miseries.

What led me to the writing of this book?


Eighteen years ago, on November 12, 1991, while I
was driving in one of the busy streets of Metro Manila,
something very strange happened. The front windshield of
my car suddenly exploded into pieces as if a lightning had
struck it. As I looked around, I could not suspect anything
or anyone who could have caused it.

THAT NIGHT I HAD A DREAM.

It was a very frightening dream indeed; in fact, it was


the most frightening dream I ever had in my whole life.
The dream had no story in it. What I could recall was I
was somewhat thinking of what name I should give an
organization when, out of the blue, a most horrifying voice
thundered. The voice shouted: “THE JESUS MISSION!”
The voice was so big and so resonating you would be sure it
came from no any ordinary human on earth.
At the very instance that the voice thundered, I awoke
and found myself sitting on my bed catching my breath,
sweating from the shock, and wondering whose voice could
that be and what could it mean.

I IGNORED THE DREAM!

But one year later, while I was driving again one early
morning of November 8 on my way to a seminar, a stone
from nowhere hit the front windshield of my car. The stone
hit the windshield so hard that it left a mark on the glass; a
little harder and it would have shattered the whole glass. As
I looked around, there was no one or anything I could
suspect the stone could have come from.

THEN I REMEMBERED THE DREAM.

Somehow I thought there must be something very


special the VOICE in my dream wanted to impart to me.
SINCE THEN, I DID NOT IGNORE THE DREAM.

Years passed, as I was pursuing the


searching for the meaning of my dream,
the “Voice in my dream” led me to
something very revealing that truly made
me so uncomfortable.
The Voice directed me to “THE TRUTHS THAT JESUS
REVEALED TO SET THE WORLD FREE” which, when
analyzed, were practically the exact opposites of what
Christianity had all along been teaching to the faithful for
two millennia now. I got scared—very, very scared. This
was so because some of the things being presented to me
by the Voice were already hitting at the very foundation of
the Christian faith itself—and that is, the very GOD of
Christianity HIMSELF. For one of the truths that the Voice
told me and which made me very uneasy was: “The God
that Moses revealed to the Israelites was not the same God
that Jesus revealed to the world whom Jesus addressed as
his Father.” I repeat: “The God of Moses is not the God of
Jesus whom Jesus called his Father.” As far as the message
of the Voice is concerned, the two are “not one and the
same”—grossly contradicting the fundamental beliefs and
teachings of Christianity.

Faced with such a dilemma, I have two choices: either to


believe the teachings of Christianity or to believe the
message of the Voice. But if ever I opted to choose the
message of the Voice, the thing is I should take all his
truths, not simply select those that I believe are true and
reject the rest.
I chose to believe the message of the Voice. And I took all
his truths—TWELVE FUNDAMENTAL TRUTHS in all that
immensely ran counter with the basic teachings of
Christianity; hence the title of the book.

And I chose the Voice not out of fear, but out of a belief that
when the seeds of the Voice’s truths were to be sown in the
world, they would bloom into a one big kingdom of God on
earth freed from all kinds of evil and suffering; whereas
when the seeds of Christianity were to be planted [as they
are planted now], they would grow exactly into the kind of
world that we now have—brimming over with all kinds of
injustices and iniquities, lies and hypocrisies, senselessness
and stupidities. The fruit just cannot belie the tree.

But there is ONE OTHER TRUTH though


that stood out among the twelve as the
most shocking one, next to the one I have
just previously mentioned. And I swear I
would never have known about it—even if
I read the Bible all over and all over again
—if not for the intercession of the Voice.
This truth concerns this religion called
CHRISTIANITY.
If you—who are reading this message—are a devout
Christian, you may not be aware of it but you, as a
Christian, have the soul and mind of the Apostle Paul. Your
behavior as a Christian has been influenced largely by the
teachings of Paul. You attend church, you donate to the
church, you respect your fellow church members, and you
believe you are assured of salvation brought about by your
belief that you are in the right church of Christ. However,
this is what I can tell you about your church: In whatever
name your church is called, it is a CHURCH OF PAUL—not of
Christ!

Christianity, as I see it today, is fundamentally Paul. It


follows to the letter the Gospel of Paul. That is no big
concern if the Gospel of Paul and the Gospel of Jesus are but
one and the same in truth and spirit. With seething anger in
my heart, I dare say it right to your face: THEY ARE NOT!
If the Christians have been behaving the way they are
behaving now, and the world continues to behave the way it
is also behaving now, it is mainly due to the fact that, for
ages, the Christian world has been embracing the teachings
of Paul under the name of Jesus—not the teachings of Jesus
under the name of God.

Paul is the most destructive force that has ever fallen upon
the true MISSION OF JESUS. And what makes him so great
an ANTICHRIST is the fact that “no one in his right mind
would ever think that Paul is destruction to Jesus.” To the
whole Christian world, Paul is the most able messenger and
apostle—the chosen one of Christ. The whole world owes to
Paul the spreading of Christianity.

Good Paul has really done it so perfectly well. If Satan


“fights” Jesus as an evil force, out to attract like-minded evil
people away from Jesus, Paul “fights with” Jesus as a
righteous force, out to attract like-minded righteous people
away from the TRUE JESUS. May God forgive me [and the
Voice who guided me] if we are wrong!

Who was Paul and what really were his


misdeeds against Christ?
Paul, a Pharisee and a Jew but of Roman citizenship, was a
hidden collaborator of the Roman Empire. Paul made
Christianity compatible with the ambitions of the Roman
Empire. Paul tamed Jesus to suit the self-seeking aims of
the empire.

And so, Jesus’ “Kingdom of God on earth and in heaven” had


been reduced to “Kingdom of God in heaven”—leaving the
“kingdom of God on earth” to the exclusive rule of Caesar.

Jesus’ “liberation of man from his physical sufferings on


earth and the salvation of man’s soul from the fires of hell”
had become solely the “spiritual salvation of man’s soul”—
leaving the “earthly liberation of man from his physical
sufferings” at the mercy of the physical world. [Christians
have mastered the art of learning to endure all physical
sufferings on earth by merely looking up to heaven with
great hope and prayers—as the world goes to the dogs.]

Jesus’ Parable of the “Good Samaritan helping a Jew despite


the Jews’ popular hatred for Samaritans”, had turned into
“love your brothers, most especially your brothers in the
faith.”

Jesus’ Mission of “going out into the world to save” had


become “going to church to be saved.” [Paul turned Jesus’
Mission totally into a CHURCH CONCEPT—where the
foremost obligation of the Faithful is to go to church, not to
go out and save the lost and sinful world; to listen to the
Gospel of Paul, not to the Gospel of Jesus; and to give their
donations and tithes to feed the church, not the poor and
oppressed in our world.]

Jesus’ command of “going out to fight all evil and injustices


of Satan with all the power given to us by God—in the name
of Jesus for the glory of God” had become “leaving to God to
do all the fighting for us for the salvation of man.”

Jesus’ Mission of “World salvation through repentance and


following him in his Mission” had been supplanted by Paul’s
Mission of “Personal salvation through Jesus’ blood and
resurrection.”

Truly, Paul had mangled the Mission of Jesus beyond


recognition. He had betrayed Jesus. If Judas’ betrayal of
Jesus gave LIFE to Jesus’ Mission, Paul’s betrayal gave
DEATH to the true Mission of Jesus. Paul’s Christianity truly
is the archenemy of Jesus. Through the Gospel of Paul,
Christianity had murdered Jesus and his Mission—without
the world even ever suspecting of it!

If Jesus were a kind of drink for the soul, Paul had


adulterated and turned the “pure living water” of Jesus into
a most delectable and saleable “Christian juice.” This
concocted juice of Paul really tasted so good to the
Christians that when the “true pure living water” came, the
people angrily rejected it, claiming that the drink was a fake.
They were sure it was not the juice that Paul had been
giving them to drink.

I tell you, had Christianity been based entirely on the “pure


living water of Jesus” [that is, on the Gospel of Jesus as
written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John]—and not on the
“adulterated drink of Paul” [that is, on the Epistles of Paul],
the world would have long time been freed from all evil and
suffering. Hence, for as long as our Christianity remains to
be ruled by the doctrines of Paul, expect to see our world
continually plunging into the depths of irreversible
destruction.

[In the book—“The Twelve Truths That Jesus Revealed…”—


you will find the detailed comparative analysis between the
Gospel of Jesus and the Gospel of Paul, as well as the
biblical proofs that the God of Moses is not the Father of
Jesus; plus the ten other more revealing truths.]
2. THE MISSION

Jesus came with only one Mission: LIFE.


Jesus’ Mission is to bring LIFE to the world—life in all its
fullness. He said:

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; but
I have come that they may have life, and have it to the
full.”
John 10:10

Jesus’ FULLNESS OF LIFE consists of “LIBERATING man from


all his earthly suffering” in order for man to enjoy to the
fullest the gift of life God gave him on earth, and, at the
same time, “SAVING man’s soul from all its damning sins” in
order for man to inherit eternal life in heaven—not the fires
of hell. Jesus simply calls it “SALVATION.” Can man’s life
be any fuller than that?

But how will Jesus LIBERATE AND SAVE


the world?
Jesus will liberate and save the world by way of working for
the RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE OF GOD to reign in our
world. Jesus said:

“Go back and report to John what you hear and see:
The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have
leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised,
and the good news is preached to the poor. Blessed is
the man who does not fall away on account of me.”
Matthew 11:6

And what is the “RIGHTEOUSNESS AND


JUSTICE” of God?

The righteousness and justice of God lies in—“seeing to it


that no single living soul on earth shall be seen deprived of
the enjoyment of the BASIC NEEDS AND RIGHTS to live
with full human dignity, respect and honor that everyone is
entitled to as a child of God.”

God demands that everyone on earth—regardless of the


color of one’s skin, faith, heart, status, age and sex—be
enjoying all the basic needs and rights for a full dignified and
honorable living.

This will of God is so important to him that for as long as


there is one living soul on earth seen left out in the banquet
of life, we shall all be accountable for it to God on Judgment
Day. Not believing in God is no excuse. All—without
exception—will be judged according to what we have done in
pursuit of this very will of God.

There are “TWELVE BASIC NEEDS AND


RIGHTS OF MAN” that, as willed by God,
everyone in this world—without exception
—must be enjoying. They are as follow:
1st: Man needs GOD and HIS SON JESUS. He has the God-
given right to seek, know, worship and serve the only
one true God and the One God sent to save the world.
2nd: Man needs THE BASIC NECESSITIES IN LIFE to be able
to live with human dignity, respect and honor. He has
the God-given right to have access and make use of
the available resources of the earth that can provide
for him such basic necessities as “FOOD, WATER,
CLOTHING, SHELTER and HEALTH CARE.”

3rd: Man needs FORMAL EDUCATION. He has the God-


given right to seek and be given the kind of formal
learning he needs to be able to face the world with
dignified honor and confidence.

4th: Man needs MEANINGFUL WORK. He has the God-given


right to contribute his knowledge, time, and skills to
the attainment of the goals of the community he
belongs to. Man is essentially a worker of God.

5th: Man needs FREEDOM OF SELF-EXPRESSION AND SELF-


DETERMINATION. He has the God-given right to
express himself and choose the kind of direction and
aspiration he wants to pursue in life in accordance with
the will of God.

6th: Man needs PEACEFUL ENVIRONMENT. He has the God-


given right to seek, promote and enjoy peace and
harmony in his environment.

7th: Man needs CLEAN AND ORDERLY ENVIRONMENT. He


has the God-given right to seek, promote and enjoy
cleanliness and orderliness in his environment.

8th: Man needs ETHICAL AND MORAL ENVIRONMENT. He


has the God-given right to seek, promote and enjoy
good ethics and morality in his environment.

9th: Man needs GOOD JUSTICE SYSTEM. He has the God-


given right to seek, promote and enjoy a justice
system that is ever fair, merciful and just.
10th: Man needs RESPECT. He has the God-given right to
stand on his own dignity regardless of the color of his
skin, faith, heart, social status, sex and age.

11th: Man needs the BEAUTIFUL EARTH. He has the God-


given right to seek, promote and enjoy any of the
wonderful things and places the earth freely offers.

12th: Man needs GOOD GOVERNMENT. He has the God-


given right to be involved and participate in the
formation and maintenance of a government that ought
to conduct itself in accordance with the will of God.

In the TWELVE BASIC NEEDS AND RIGHTS


OF MAN lies the true measurement of the
progress of a nation.
All global initiatives for peace and progress, and the whole
force of all governments throughout the world—together
with all the laws that would be enacted and the policies and
programs that would be formulated—must revolve around
and be directed towards the satisfaction of the TWELVE
BASIC NEEDS AND RIGHTS OF MAN. The basic needs and
rights of man ought to be at the center of all governance.

It is demanded of us by God that no child of his be seen un-


served in the banquet of life that God has prepared for all
his children on earth. How far are we achieving this aim
determines the “true measurement of the progress” of a
nation and of our world in accordance with the will of God.

Hence, for a nation that is said to be RICH but whose people


are found wanting in the basic human needs and rights is
not a rich nation indeed: she is as poor as a rat and as
wicked as the people ruling her.

But for a nation that is said to be POOR but whose people


are all living with full human dignity is not a poor nation
indeed: she is as rich as the KINGDOM OF GOD and as
righteous as the God who is governing her.

How can we make the “RIGHTEOUSNESS


AND JUSTICE OF GOD” reign in our world
so much so that the “TWELVE BASIC
NEEDS AND RIGHTS OF MAN” can all be
provided to each and everyone—without
exception—in our world?
There is only one answer: “LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS JESUS
HAS LOVED US”—or simply “BROTHERHOOD OF MEN.”
There is no other answer.

3. THE BROTHERHOOD

The state of the world we have today.


The ideology of life that has for so long been adopted by our
world is SELFISM: a belief that man must live for himself
and only for the satisfaction and glory of himself if he wants
to attain the good life in this world. The result is this kind of
world that we now have—a world where the “rule of the
game is to get and amass as much wealth and power as
one’s greed would allow”—even if it is already being done at
the expense of others and the well-being of the world.

And so as the game unfolds, “the fast, the strong, the


smart, and the corrupt” among us get to advance in life by
leaps and bounds, while “the slow, the weak, the meek, and
the innocent” get left far behind. In the eyes of the world
whose de-facto lord is SELF, this kind of set-up is perfectly
fair, just and legal. But in the eyes of our loving Father in
heaven, it is nothing but cruel, if not brutal, unjust and
immoral.

For this, Jesus had to come.


To counter SELFISM, Jesus introduced the opposite:
MUTUALISM. It is a belief that man must live for one
another for the glory of our Father in heaven if we all want
to attain the fullness of life. And Jesus put it sternly in the
form of a command, not a request. He said: “My command
is this: Love each other as I have loved you” – [John 15:12].
To Jesus, “loving one another” is not a VOLUNTARY CHOICE,
but an IMPERATIVE NECESSITY in order for the
righteousness and justice of God to reign on earth and
consequently liberate the marginalized and downtrodden in
our world.

Hence, to the poor and oppressed who have been left far
behind in the self-seeking race, Jesus said:

“Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the


kingdom of God.
Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be
satisfied.
Blessed are you who weep now, for you will
laugh.”
Luke 6:20-21
But to the rich and powerful who have grabbed the lead in
the race, Jesus said:

“But woe to you who are rich, for you have


already received your comfort.
Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will go
hungry.
Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn
and weep.”
Luke 6:24-25

It is worthwhile to note that Jesus did not favor the POOR


AND OPPRESSED because they were poor and oppressed per
se. For all we know, the poor and oppressed of today, when
they get rich and powerful tomorrow, would be far greedier
and more oppressive than the rich and powerful of today.
Jesus favored the poor and oppressed because they did not
deserve their fate. Had the righteousness and justice of God
prevailed on earth, they would have been living their lives
with full human dignity and respect as children of God.

On the other side, Jesus did not disfavor the RICH AND
POWERFUL because they were rich and powerful per se. Is
not Jesus’ Father the wealthiest and most powerful in the
world? Jesus disfavored the rich and powerful because their
unbridled thirst for “getting and amassing and grabbing”
were already causing untold deprivation to the countless
many in our world.

Poverty and oppression is an affront to our Creator who


gave us everything we need in this world and yet so many
are found wanting.

Be that as it may, “loving one another”


may seem so SIMPLE AN ANSWER, yet so
HARD A SOLUTION.
It is so hard a solution because if there is anything man is
not willing to give up by any means and at all cost in this
world—it is his LOVE OF SELF. And for this, the greatest
challenge of all challenges in the world for me as I see it is:

“How we, the people of the world, can learn to love and care
and give ourselves for each other as one brothers and
sisters in God regardless of the differences in the colors of
our faith, skin, heart, status, sex and age—as exactly as
Jesus has loved, cared, and given himself for us to liberate
and save us from all our sin and suffering.”

I found this to be the supreme challenge of all challenges


because, if only the world can learn to do it, there “in our
loving of one another” lies the key to the eradication of
greed and corruption, the elimination of poverty and
oppression, the liberation and salvation of the world, the
establishment of the kingdom of God on earth, and the
fulfillment of the will of God for the world.

Henceforth, for as long as the world cannot learn to humble


itself to take the challenge of loving one another, evil and
suffering shall forever stay in our world—ever getting so
larger, so meaner and so bolder with each passing day.
And may we stop praying to God that they disappear—for
they won’t!

Loving one another is the answer! It is the only answer—


and no other! And, I repeat, it is an imperative necessity as
mandated by Jesus, not a voluntary option.

The Voice tells me that there is ONE MOST


EFFECTIVE WAY on how we can make our
world switch to playing the game of
“MUTUALISM” from its present game of
“SELFISM.”
You cannot play basketball in a field where the game
everybody plays is football. You are only courting ejection.
Similarly, it is hard for anyone to be self-giving in this world
where the game being played is “Love of Self.” One will only
be courting exploitation and frustration.

If we want the world to play the game of “Love of one


another”—and not “Love of self even at the expense of
others”—let us start it with a small group of like-minded
people who share our Mission and Vision. From such a small
group that cares for one another, it shall attract others to
join in till it grows larger and larger and larger: so large and
so liberating that there is no reason for all the rest not to be
attracted to join in as well. And then the whole world shall
become a one big kingdom of God on earth—freed from all
kinds of evil, corruption and suffering. Take it from Jesus’
parables:

“The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed,


which a man took and planted in his field. Though it
is the smallest of your seeds, yet when it grows, it is
the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so
that the birds of the air come and perch in its
branches.”
“The Kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a
woman took and mixed into a large amount of flour
until it worked all through the dough.”
Matthew 13:31-33

Truly, the world is so inexorably being ruled by self-


centeredness that its only hope for ever being renewed is for
a few responsible people to band together and show love
and care for each other till it rubs on to others, grows,
multiplies and, ultimately, gets on to conquer the whole
world.

Only when the world begins to recognize that the only


reason the world is awash with evil and suffering is because
men are selfish—and not because God is not loving—can it
start to make progress in its aim of building a happy world
for everyone.

But most importantly, only when like-minded people band


together, organize themselves into a brotherhood of men
and become living examples of the truths of Jesus can the
building of a happy world begin to happen. Amen.

4. THE DISCIPLESHIP

Jesus has formed an organization called


“THE JESUS MISSION” and is inviting
everyone to join him in bringing the
fullness of life to the world.
What is this organization, called “THE JESUS MISSION?”

THE JESUS MISSION is a BROTHERHOOD OF MEN


who are loving and caring and looking after each other as
one brothers and sisters in God as Jesus has loved, cared
and looked after us.

Jesus said:
“As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if
you love one another.”
John 13:34-35

Her Mission is to bring the RIGHTEOUSNESS AND


JUSTICE OF GOD to the world where no single living soul on
earth should be seen deprived of the enjoyment of his
TWELVE BASIC NEEDS AND RIGHTS to live with full human
dignity, respect and honor as a child of God, pursuing it in
the name of Jesus for the glory of God.

It is a “brotherhood without walls” where each one


believes they are “FIRST BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN GOD”
before they are black, white, yellow, red or brown; or before
they are Christians, Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists or
whatever; or before they are rich or poor; or before they are
righteous or sinners; or before they are male or female; or
before they are old or young.

Jesus said:

“So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What


shall we drink? Or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the
pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly
Father knows that you need them. But seek first HIS
KINGDOM AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, and all these
things will be given to you as well.
Matthew 6:31-34

The Jesus Mission is “THE KINGDOM AND THE


RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD.” Joining the Mission is not
joining a new religion [for it is not a religion] or just another
organization. Entering the Mission is entering a NEW LIFE—
free from all worries, anxieties, insecurities and oppressions
in life. Amen.

Jesus is inviting you to be a “DISCIPLE” in


his Mission; better yet, to be a
“SHEPHERD” to lead his flock.

1. The FLOCK and the SHEPHERD

The entire discipleship is called THE FLOCK. The


DISCIPLES IN THE MISSION OF JESUS [to be called
“The Jemis”] compose the flock. The flock within each
respective community is to be divided into manageable
groups [of 120 disciples maximum per group] to be
each headed, led, managed and cared for by a FLOCK
SHEPHERD.

All disciples and shepherds are to be registered with


the Mission’s BOOK OF LIFE. No person is ever
considered a disciple or shepherd unless his or her
name is listed in the Mission’s BOOK OF LIFE.

2. Every “DISCIPLE’S” duties & responsibilities

2.1. Recruit continually and endlessly. Make disciples


of all nations. For every new member we win, we
free one soul from evil and suffering.
2.2. Aim for perfect attendance in the Mission’s weekly
gathering.
2.3. Maintain clean and good moral living at all times.
2.4. Be a living example of the truths of Jesus.
2.5. Be a good member of your community and family.
2.6. Be a responsible citizen of the world.
2.7. Work hard to support the life of the Mission. The
life of the Mission is the life of the world, most
especially the poor and oppressed in our world.

3. Every “FLOCK SHEPHERD’S” duties &


responsibilities

3.1. Lead and take care of Jesus’ flock.


3.2. Build up the flock in one’s community through
effective and relentless recruitment. Conquer
the world.
3.2. Conduct indoctrination and baptism of new
disciples.
3.3. Plan, organize and facilitate the weekly gathering
of the flock.
3.4. Take note, coordinate, and monitor the status of
the needs and concerns of the flock as far as their
satisfaction and resolutions are concerned.
3.5. Make a Weekly Performance Report to the Mission.
3.6. Account for all the disciples of the flock within
one’s control and give weekly update to the
Mission of discipleship’s status.
3.7. Collect voluntary contributions from the flock to be
forwarded to the Mission. The shepherds retain
20% of the contributions as financial aid for the
administration of their flock.

4. TEN QUALIFICATIONS required to be appointed


as FLOCK SHEPHERD.

4.1. Legal age.


4.2. Emotionally mature.
4.3. Good moral character.
4.4. Literate.
4.5. Good health.
4.6. Basic leadership skill.
4.7. Good communication skill.
4.8. Passion for serving.
4.9. Reasonable time commitment to the Mission.
4.10. Man of God [subscribes to the 12 truths of
Jesus].

5. The overall GUIDING PRINCIPLE of the Mission

“He who has the power has the duty to help, while he
who has the duty to help must acquire the power.
Each one in the Mission has the duty to help and the
right to be helped. Let he who can help, do help; as he
who needed help, be helped.”

May no one boast that one doesn’t need anybody in


life.

• He who is healthy and strong today may be the


sick and weak tomorrow.
• He who is well-fed today may be the hungry
tomorrow.
• He who is free today may be the oppressed
tomorrow.

6. THE WEEKLY GATHERING OF THE FLOCK

The weekly gathering of the flock, to be officiated by


the Flock Shepherd, observes the following sets of
activities:

6.1. The opening prayer.


6.2. Singing of Mission hymns.
6.3. The meeting proper:
• Jesus’ message [a homily].
• Shepherd’s past week’s performance report.
• Raising up of needs and concerns by the
“RECEIVERS.”
• Giving of pledges and commitments by the
“GIVERS” to address the needs and concerns
raised by the receivers.
• Reporting by the disciples working on the
“TWELVE WORKS OF THE MISSION.”
6.4. The communal meal—to commemorate Jesus’ act
of covenant at the last supper.
6.5. Program of celebration—celebrating past week’s
accomplishments, birthdays, anniversaries, or
successes of the disciples.
6.6. The parting prayer.

The whole essence of the Mission lies in the weekly


gathering of the flock. For you to appreciate better the
great importance of the meeting, simply imagine the
whole world gathering in unity and addressing the
needs and concerns of all the people in the world.

7. The “GIVERS” and the “RECIEVERS”

During the weekly gathering of the flock, the disciples


turned into GIVERS and/or RECEIVERS.

• RECIEVERS are those with needs and concerns to


be satisfied and addressed;
• GIVERS are those with the capability and
willingness to satisfy and address the needs and
concerns raised by the RECEIVERS.

Givers do not always remain as givers, as receivers do


not always remain as receivers. A giver this time may
be the receiver next time, and a receiver this time may
also be the giver next time. Or it can be
simultaneously: during the gathering, a certain disciple
may raise a particular need and/or concern and yet he
or she can also address some of the needs and/or
concerns raised by others.

Both givers and receivers may come from within the


immediate flock or from other flocks or even from non-
disciples of the Mission.

As for the NEEDS and CONCERNS that may be raised,


they may be in the form of personal, social,
professional, financial, emotional, environmental,
political, spiritual or anything that concerns the life of
man. The Mission believes that where there are needs
and concerns in life, there is God seeking to give life.
We are the hands of God. God cares for us to the
extent that we care for one another. What we are
doing to one another, we are doing it unto God. Amen.

8. THE TWELVE WORKS OF THE MISSION

Jesus said:

“I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me


will do what I have been doing. He will do even
greater things than these, because I am going to
the Father.”
John 14:12-13

All disciples may choose to be involved in any one of


the “TWELVE WORKS OF THE MISSION,” as follow:

WORK # 1: ONE TRUE GOD, ONE TRUE MESSIAH


The disciples in Christ must unite and work for the right
of each individual in our world to know, serve, and
worship the one true God who is our Father in heaven
and the One God sent to save the world who is our Lord
Jesus—the Divine Son of God and the one true Messiah
of the world.
WORK # 2: BASIC SOURCES OF LIFE: FOOD,
WATER, AIR, CLOTHES, SHELTER, and HEALTH CARE.
The disciples in Christ must unite and vehemently
oppose any destruction or abuse or misuse or
misappropriation of man’s sources of life [land, water,
air, and all the other life-giving resources of the earth],
and shall work for their just and most productive usage
in a way that every living child of God in this world may
get to be served with his share of “food” to eat, potable
“water” to drink, clean “air” to breathe in, decent
“clothes” to wear, a dignified “home” to live in, and full
access to “medical care and treatment.” No one ought
to be left out in the distribution of the wealth and fruits
of the world.

WORK # 3: EDUCATION
The disciples in Christ must unite and work for making
it possible for every individual to get a complete and
quality “education.”

WORK # 4: GAINFUL WORK


The disciples in Christ must unite and work for making
it possible for every eligible individual to contribute his
knowledge, skills, talents and time for the
accomplishment of the goals of the community to which
he belongs—through “gainful work.”

WORK # 5: FREEDOM OF PRODUCTIVE CHOICE


The disciples in Christ must unite and oppose any
curtailment of the right of every individual to choose
the kind of “productive life” he wants to live and the
“life-enhancing endeavor” he wants to pursue.

WORK # 6: PEACEFUL WORLD


The disciples in Christ must unite and work for the
maintenance of a “peaceful world” at all times.
WORK # 7: CLEAN AND ORDERLY WORLD
The disciples in Christ must unite and work for the
maintenance of a “clean and orderly world” at all times.

WORK # 8: ETHICAL AND MORAL WORLD


The disciples in Christ must unite and work for an
“ethical and moral world” at all times.

WORK # 9: FAIR, JUST, AND HUMANE JUSTICE


SYSTEM
The disciples in Christ must unite and work for an
everlastingly “fair, just, and humane justice system” in
our world.

WORK # 10: UNIVERSAL RESPECT


The disciples in Christ must unite and oppose any
“discriminatory attempt or practices” due to differences
in the color of skin, heart, beliefs, status in life, age,
and/or sex.

WORK # 11: COMMON OWNERSHIP OF THE EARTH


The disciples in Christ must unite and oppose any
exclusivity to the “enjoyment of the natural wealth,
wonders, and beauty of the earth.”

WORK # 12: GOOD GOVERNMENT


The disciples in Christ must unite and work for the
formation of a government that is everlastingly honest
and obedient to the will of God, and that sees to it that
no one is being left out in the enjoyment of all the basic
needs and rights needed to live with full human dignity
and respect.

9. THE INDOCTRINATION AND BAPTISM

All recruits must undergo one-day INDOCTRINATION—


to be conducted by the Flock Shepherd. The
Indoctrination Program Outline shall include the
following:

9.1. The 12 Liberating Truths of Jesus.


9.2. The JM Nature, Mission, Vision and Strategy.
9.3. The JM Organization Set-up
9.4. The JM Guiding Principle, Shared Values and
Ethics.
9.5. The Duties & Responsibilities.
9.6. The JM culture.
• The JM greeting.
• The Disciple’s Prayer.
• The Mark on the Forehead.
• The Weekly Gathering and the Communal Meal.
• The Caring for One Another: Receivers &
Givers.

After the indoctrination, comes the BAPTISM for new


converts. In the baptismal rite [to be officiated by the
Flock Shepherd], the new disciples in Christ shall be
made to swear their lifetime commitments to the
Mission. The baptism shall be highlighted by the new
disciple’s receiving of an indelible mark [a tiny dot like
a mole] on his or her forehead—[this is optional
though]. The mark symbolizes the disciple’s
commitment to pursuing Jesus’ Mission of Life to the
very end. [See: Revelation 9:1-6 and Revelation
22:1-5]

10. THE LIFE OF THE MISSION.

The Mission lives in the nature of a waterfall: She


draws her power of giving from her receiving. As she
receives, she gives; as the recipient receives, he/she
also gives.
The life of the Mission is in the continuing flow of giving
and receiving. Any withholding from the flow impairs
the life. An impairment of the life of the Mission is an
impairment of the hopes and dreams of the
downtrodden in our world.

5. THE POWER

Only POWER can change the world.


God used power to create the world. Jesus used power to
heal the world. Satan is using power to destroy the world.
Today, we, too, shall need power to renew the world.

And there is no power whose aim is to change the world that


can be greater than the POWER OF THE ORGANIZATION.

ORGANIZATION is POWER. Built into the


right size, it can be the MOST POWERFUL
FORCE in the world.

In fact, the organization of good men is the only power that


can effectively bring down evil. Individually, we can do
nothing. The bigger we can organize ourselves together, the
bigger the power we can pack to defeat the evil forces of
Satan. The strategy is: In no case and in no time should
the Mission’s force be lesser than the force of evil she wills
to conquer. Jesus said:
“How can anyone enter a strong man’s house and carry
off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong
man? Then he can rob his house.”
Matthew 12:29

Our organization shall be founded on Jesus’ truths. From


the propagation of Jesus’ truths, the gathering of greater
number of disciples. From the gathering of greater number
of disciples, the generation of wealth. From the generation
of wealth, the acquisition of political power. From the
acquisition of political power, the renewal of the world.

If we cannot learn and accept to organize now, then may no


one in the world be seen lamenting the ever-growing
presence of evil and suffering in our world. It is then to be
through our lack of organizational unity to fight them that
they happened.

In the final analysis, “evil and suffering exist because we


allow it. And they shall continue to exist for as long as we
continue to allow it.” There is no other reason. Amen.

The MISSION shall seek for POLITICAL


POWER to fast-track the renewal of the
world.
All the powers to make a change in our world have been
entrusted by the people of the world to their respective
government leaders. There is no excuse therefore
whatsoever for the leaders of the world not to deliver as per
the expectation of the people. And so what happened that
the world is teeming with hunger, poverty, unemployment,
corruption, agitation, oppression and crimes. Lack of
power? Or lack of the will to govern righteously. I tell you,
when leaders are self-seekers, what can the world expect?

It is one big aim of the Mission to work for developing and


putting Men of God at the helm of all government of nations
to hasten up the liberation and salvation of the world. “The
rule of the righteous is the rule of God.” There in the hands
of good government leaders lies the speedy and sweeping
liberation of the world from all evil and suffering.

The Jesus Mission shall aim to set up


“THE JESUS MISSION CENTERS” in every
depressed community area around the
world.
The JM CENTERS shall seek to provide basic services to the
hapless and misfortune in our world.
Curiously, are these JM Centers yet to be pursued if
only the governments are doing their jobs? Caring for people
is their mandated task, right? Truly, winning the reins of
governments by Men of God shall single-handedly do the job
of liberating the world from all poverty and oppression. It is
the very will of God that ultimately the Men of the Mission be
holding the reins of the world. Amen.

6. THE CALL

THE CALL TO THE MISSION


Whoever and wherever and whatever you are, JESUS IS
CALLING ON YOU! He is inviting you to play an active part
in his Mission of renewing our world. He is asking you to get
involved, to share your mind, your heart, your soul and your
time to the Mission.

If you are that person who is yet searching for that one true
meaning of life in this world, this is it: “How we can stop
man from his self-glorifying ways and, instead, teach him
how to give his life for the uplift of the world for the glory of
God.” Jesus said:

“If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself


and take up his cross and follow me. FOR WHOEVER
WANTS TO SAVE HIS LIFE WILL LOSE IT, BUT
WHOEVER LOSES HIS LIFE FOR ME WILL FIND IT.
What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole
world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in
exchange of his soul?”
Matthew 16:24-26

If you are that person who constantly prays to God for the
salvation of the world, this is your chance to translate your
entreaties into actions; for at the end of the day, no good
words and intentions can ever renew the world, except real
and concrete actions.

We all need to “BAND TOGETHER NOW” and “CREATE A


POWERFUL FORCE,” strong enough to move the mountains
of evil and suffering in the world to where there will be no
more! We need all the powers we can generate to defeat
evil right in their own turfs and in their own games: wealth
for wealth, power for power, and truth for truth.

And let us all unite and move now while “the tree is still
green,” for tomorrow may already be too late—not for us,
more than for our children and the children of our children
whose welfare will depend on the kind of world we are to
shape today for them. Be sternly warned of what Jesus said
to the women of Jerusalem on his way to the cross:

“Daughter of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, weep for


yourselves and your children. For the time will come
when you will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the
wombs that never bore and the breasts that never
nursed!’ Then they will say to the mountains, “Fall on
us!” and to the hills. “Cover us!” For if men do these
things when the tree is green, what will happen when it
is dry?”
Luke 23:28-31

Let us not wait for the end of the world to come in order to
be lifted up to heaven to meet the Lord. TODAY IS THE DAY
OF OUR LORD! Meet him where he is now: He is there right
in his Mission waiting for us for two thousand years now to
join him in his crusade of liberating and saving the world
from all evil and suffering.

Believe me, if we are to commit ourselves to Jesus now in


his Mission, we and our children and the children of our
children will never regret it. Never! Jesus himself is
assuring us:

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will


never walk in darkness, but will have the LIGHT OF
LIFE.”
John 8:12

The world can be classified into four types


of people as far as THE ABILITY AND THE
WILLINGNESS TO BE INVOLVED IN THE
PROBLEMS OF THE WORLD ARE
CONCERNED.
1st: There are those who can help and really do mean to
help.
nd
2 : There are those who can help but do not mean to help.
3rd: There are those who cannot help but really do mean to
help.
th
4 : There are those who cannot help and, at the same
time, do not really have any intention at all to help.

If you are the type “who can help and really do mean to
help,” or the other type “who cannot help but really do
mean to help”—the Mission badly needs you. To Jesus, you
are the light and the salt of the earth.

On the other hand, if you are one among those “who can
help but have no intention to help,” or among those “who
cannot help and, at the same time, really do not have any
intention at all to help”—may God bless you!

What do you profit from joining THE


JESUS MISSION?
1. You are given the opportunity to show who you really are in
the presence of the Lord: As a gracious GIVER, as a grateful
RECEIVER, and as a CARING WORKER in the Mission of
Jesus.

2. You will get to know the LIBERATING TRUTHS OF JESUS that


will set you free from all lies and hypocrisies being
perpetrated upon the true Mission of Jesus for the past
2,000 years now by the Christianity of Paul.

3. You are directly contributing to the FREEING OF OUR


WORLD from the diabolical hold of greed and corruption, and
to the easing of the pains and sufferings of the billions of
poor and oppressed around the world.
4. You are CLOSER TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD for you are
doing “the very will of God” upon which we shall all be
essentially judged at the coming of the Lord.

5. Gone will be all your worries, anxieties, insecurities and


oppressions in life as the Mission is your BIG BROTHER,
Jesus as your ABLE LEADER and God as your MOST
PROTECTIVE FATHER leading and guiding you in your day-
to-day living. Gone are the days when you seem you are
left all alone fighting in your will to survive in this most
uncaring and self-centered world.

6. When the Mission succeeds, you are passing onto your


children and the children of your children, not just a BETTER
PLACE, but a PERFECT PLACE for everyone to live in.

7. If you will come in as a FLOCK Shepherd, you will get that


heavenly feeling of being able to lead the flock of Jesus to
the fullness of life.

8. If you have the desire to aspire to be a NEW CEASAR OF


GOD ruling from the highest seat of government to bring
about a perfect place for everyone to live in, the Mission will
be all out to support you as it is the will of God that only
Men of God must rule the world.

9. Gone are the days when you seem so successful and yet so
failing, so rich and yet so inadequate, and so powerful and
yet so incapacitated to make a difference in our world.

10. You are now in the LEAGUE OF GOD—the self-givers of the


world in the name of Jesus for the glory of God; no longer in
the LEAGUE OF SATAN—the self-seekers of the world in the
name of profit for the glory of SELF.
But more than what you can profit from
the mission, may you join because:
1st: You love God and commit to glorify God by doing his
will for the world.
nd
2 : You love Jesus and commit to follow him in his
MISSION of Life for the world.
rd
3 : You care for the world and choose to be God’s
instrument in bringing life to the world.
th
4 : You are sick and tired of seeing the greedy and the
corrupt lording it over while the meek and the weak are
wallowing under. Once and for all, you want to see the
world set right:

• By seeing to it that no one in this world be ever


seen again deprived of his basic needs and rights to
live with full human dignity in this world.

• By seeing to it that no one ever dare attempt


again to legalize what is immoral [as immoral as
greed and corruption], nor consider as righteous
what is immoral simply because it is legal. [Oh, how
our land is riddled with so much laws that people can
well live without, yet missing in laws that many of
our people today would find it hard to live without.
One glaring example is the existence of the “seatbelt
law” that requires motorists to always fasten their
seatbelt for their driving protection, but the non-
existence of a law that requires the government and
the rich and the powerful to feed and save the poor
and the hungry from their deadly humiliation and
starvation at all cost.]

• By seeing to it that the Almighty God through his


own “new breed of Caesars” be ultimately ruling the
world.
Nothing is impossible with God: WE CAN
RENEW THE WORLD.
All year long, people kept on crying and murmuring about
the presence of Goliath. But Goliath stayed and pestered
them as ever. Until one day, a brave man by the name of
David came to face Goliath eye to eye and slew him right
before their very eyes. Analyzing it, the real problem is not
Goliath—it is the people.

Why can’t we do the same with the problems of the world


that have been causing so much suffering for so many and
for so long? The David in our hearts is the answer. Let us
bring him out.

NEW PEOPLE, NEW WORLD!


We cannot expect the dyed-in-the-wool wolf-leaders in our
governments to become lambs, or the holy hypocrites of
Satan in our churches to become angels of God to bring
about the liberation of our world from evil, greed and
corruption. That will never happen! The countdown to a
new beginning of real truth, real way and real life in the
world shall be triggered by a community of “new people with
new hearts.” They shall emerge from the ruins of crooked,
twisted and adulterated word of God and shall effect a
lasting change for the world founded on the justice and
righteousness of God. It is they who shall make the
kingdom of God on earth happen! NEW PEOPLE, NEW
WORLD!

Jesus said:

“No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old


garment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from
the old, making the tear worse. And no one pours new
wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst
the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be
ruined. No, he pours NEW WINE into NEW
WINESKINS.”
Mark 2:21-22

Without the true Jesus and his true


Mission ministering in our world, the
world can do nothing.
Jesus said:

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man


remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit;
APART FROM ME YOU CAN DO NOTHING.”
John 15:5

Not by any wisdom of any man can the world be ever


renewed other than by Jesus. No one can save the world
from its sins and sufferings other than God through his Son
Jesus. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life; without him
the world can do nothing!

The truth is: the reason the world is ever a perennial mess is
because it has tried all kinds of ideologies except for one:
Jesus as the way, the truth and the only life. And I know
why the world is taking forever to try Jesus: “To take Jesus
is to reject the self” which the self-seeking world finds it
impossible to embrace. Amen.

Be the light and salt of the earth!


Jesus is now here enlisting your consent to follow him and
be a DISCIPLE in his Mission, better yet, a SHEPHERD in
leading his flock to the renewal of the world. The reward
Jesus offers is just utterly indescribable. The reward is
simply far greater than all the kinds of reward we can
imagine to have in our lifetime.

Must you heed the call? The decision is yours. The decision
on your decision is God’s.

Last note of emphasis: THE JESUS


MISSION is a brotherhood of men and—
never a religion.
She is a brotherhood of men and women, of adults and
children, of Christians and Muslims or whatever faith, of the
righteous and the unjust, of the black-white-yellow-red-and-
brown, and of the rich and poor. Her aim is LIFE—loving,
caring and looking after each other as one brothers and
sisters in God, as exactly as Jesus has loved, cared and
looked after the world, regardless of the color of the world’s
religion and its state of heart. She is in the socials of life,
economics of life, ecologies of life, politics of life,
spiritualities of life—wherever it concerns the life of the
world, the Mission is there aiming to bring life. THE JESUS
MISSION transcends all religions.

May religion be not a stumbling block and may no one take


offense at Jesus’ Mission of bringing fullness of life to the
world. Amen.

Thanks for the time you have shared with me in listening to


God’s message of salvation. God bless us all, especially the
least of our brothers and sisters in God!

Hail the one true God and the One God sent to save the
world—his only Son Jesus! Amen.
