PREFACE

The Purpose Of This Lecture Series

PREFACE

The purpose of this lecture series is simple yet vital: to let the Scriptures speak plainly on a matter that many today either neglect or dismiss—the wearing of the veil by Christian women in prayer.

Through the centuries, the people of God have struggled not only with false doctrines introduced by men but also with the temptation to reduce the commands of God to mere matters of culture, convenience, or opinion. This study is not born out of a desire to argue for traditions of men but out of a commitment to uphold the inspired Word of God, which alone is our standard of faith and practice.

In 1 Corinthians 11:2–16, the apostle Paul presents a teaching that is not cultural, temporary, or optional. His reasoning is rooted in headship, creation order, angelic witness, and the practice of all the churches of God. To dismiss such teaching as irrelevant is to misunderstand the authority of apostolic doctrine.

This work is presented in the hope of helping brethren see more clearly that the veil is not an incidental matter. It is a divine ordinance that manifests obedience, reverence, and submission to God’s eternal order. While the veil itself does not save, the heart that willingly submits to apostolic instruction demonstrates the kind of faith that abides in Christ.

It is also my prayer that this study will speak not only to members of the Lord’s church but also to those outside, who may be curious about what the Bible truly says on this subject. Let the Scriptures, not culture, not tradition, not human reasoning, be our guide.

May every reader approach these pages with the spirit of the Bereans—“searching the scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11). If we are willing to be doers of the Word, not hearers only (James 1:22), then we will find in God’s instructions both clarity and blessing.

PAUNANG SALITA

Ang Layunin Ng Seryeng Ito

PAUNANG SALITA

Ang layunin ng seryeng ito ay simple ngunit napakahalaga: hayaan nating ang Kasulatan mismo ang magsalita nang malinaw tungkol sa isang bagay na sa panahong ito ay kadalasang binabalewala o itinatanggi—ang pagsusuot ng belo ng mga babaeng Kristiyano sa pananalangin.

Sa loob ng maraming siglo, ang bayan ng Diyos ay nakipagbuno hindi lamang laban sa mga maling doktrinang ipinapasok ng mga tao kundi pati na rin sa tukso na gawing usapin lamang na kultura, kaginhawahan, o opinyon ang mga utos ng Diyos. Ang pag-aaral na ito ay hindi nagmula sa pagnanais na ipagtanggol ang mga tradisyon ng tao, kundi mula sa matibay na paninindigan na itaguyod ang kinasihang Salita ng Diyos, na Siya lamang ating pamantayan ng pananampalataya at pamumuhay.

Sa 1 Corinto 11:2–16, inilahad ng apostol Pablo ang isang katuruan na hindi panlupa, hindi pansamantala, at hindi opsyonal. Ang kanyang pangangatuwiran ay nakaugat sa pagkakasunud-sunod ng pagkapang-ulo, sa kaayusan ng paglalang, sa mga anghel na saksi, at sa nakasanayang gawain ng lahat ng mga iglesia ng Diyos. Ang pagturing sa katuruang ito bilang walang saysay o hindi mahalaga ay isang maling pagkaunawa sa kapangyarihan ng doktrinang apostoliko.

Inilalahad ang gawaing ito na may pag-asang makatulong sa mga kapatid upang higit na makita na ang belo ay hindi isang bagay na di-mahalaga. Ito ay isang banal na utos na nagpapakita ng pagsunod, paggalang, at pagpapasakop sa walang hanggang kaayusan ng Diyos. Bagama’t ang belo mismo ay hindi nakapagliligtas, ang pusong kusang nagpapasakop sa turo ng mga apostol ay nagpapakita ng uri ng pananampalatayang nananatili kay Cristo.

Panalangin ko rin na ang pag-aaral na ito ay magsilbing tinig hindi lamang sa mga kasapi ng iglesia ng Panginoon kundi maging sa mga nasa labas, na maaaring mausisa kung ano nga ba talaga ang sinasabi ng Biblia tungkol sa paksang ito. Hayaan nating ang Kasulatan—hindi kultura, hindi tradisyon, hindi pangangatwirang pantao—ang maging ating patnubay.

Nawa’y lapitan ng bawat mambabasa ang mga pahinang ito na may diwa ng mga taga-Berea—“sinisiyasat araw-araw ang mga kasulatan, kung tunay nga ang mga bagay na ito” (Gawa 17:11). Sapagkat kung tayo’y handang maging tagatupad ng Salita, at hindi tagapakinig lamang (Santiago 1:22), matatagpuan natin sa mga tagubilin ng Diyos ang malinaw na pag-unawa at dakilang pagpapala.

Maaaring ibahagi, i-print, ipangaral, o i-repost ang mga artikulo dito kung hindi ito babaguhin, panananatilihin ang tema ng layunin, hindi ipagbibili o gagamitin para kumita, at may malinaw na link pabalik sa blog na ito.

The Origin and Error of “Once Saved, Always Saved” (OSAS): A Biblical Exposé

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog The Origin and Error of “Once Saved, Always Saved” (OSAS) A Biblical Exposé An Authoritative Study Using the King James Bible Introduction: A Question of Eternal Security The doctrine of Once Saved, Always Saved (OSAS) asserts that once a person is saved, they can never lose their salvation, regardless of future behavior, apostasy, or rebellion. It is often linked with the phrase “eternal security” in Protestant theology. This study examines the origin, evaluates the biblical claims, and provides a full refutation using only the Scripture as the final and only authority. I. Historical Roots of OSAS (A Brief Context) Though many today assume OSAS to be an apostolic doctrine, its systematized form arose from John Calvin's doctrine of Perseverance of the Saints (TULIP), later popularized by Baptist theologians like Charles Stanley and modern evangelical churches. However, early church fathers such as Tertullian, Orige...

The Promise and Importance of Christ’s Church

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog     Next ⟶ The Promise and Importance of Christ’s Church "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." — Matthew 16:18 (KJV) Introduction The Church of Christ is not a product of human invention or denominational evolution. It is the fulfillment of a divine promise — a structure built not by human hands, but by the Lord Himself. In a time when religious confusion is widespread and thousands of conflicting churches exist, we must return to the simple, authoritative statement of Jesus: “I will build my church.” (Matt. 16:18) These words mark the beginning of a divine blueprint. This was not a vague intention, nor a mystical concept. Jesus was referring to a real, identifiable, and traceable body of people — the church — that He Himself would build, own, and preserve. “I Will Build My Church” — A Divine...

Restoration Movement: The Illusion of Rebuilding What God Preserved

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog There Is Nothing to Restore — Just Preach the Gospel A Doctrinal Exposition Affirming the Ongoing Existence and Perfection of God’s Church Introduction In recent centuries, many sincere believers have spoken of a "restoration movement"—the idea that the true church was lost to history and must now be recovered or re-established. But is this concept biblical? Does Scripture ever indicate that the church built by Christ (Matthew 16:18) would vanish, become corrupted, and need a future restoration? The answer, as revealed in the inspired Word of God, is  no . What God  planned before the foundation of the world  (Ephesians 3:9–11), what Christ  purchased with His own blood  (Acts 20:28), and what was  established in power on Pentecost  (Acts 2),  continues to exist today . While men may depart from the truth, the truth remains. And what we are called to do is not to restore, but to  pre...

The Church Built By Jesus Christ In The New testament - Lesson 1

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog ⟵ Previous Next ⟶ Lesson 1: The Church Planned by God Before the Creation of the Universe Key Passage: Ephesians 3:9–11 “ And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: ” Introduction The concept of the church is often misunderstood—even among believers. To many, it appears to be an afterthought, a temporary institution until Christ returns, or merely a human denomination among many. But the Scriptures teach otherwise. The church was not an accident. It was not a substitute for a failed plan. It was not an invention of man. It was part of God's eternal purpose , rooted i...

The Deathblow to OSAS

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog Romans 6:1-2 — The Deathblow to OSAS with One Simple Question "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? - Romans 6:1-2 Can You Keep Sinning and Still Be Saved? Paul Says: Absolutely Not! Some claim, “Once Saved, Always Saved” (OSAS)—but what if one simple question from Paul demolishes that doctrine entirely? In  Romans 6:1-2 , the apostle confronts the dangerous logic that grace gives license to sin. His answer is sharp, unshakable, and Spirit-inspired. This short but powerful passage doesn’t just challenge OSAS—it delivers the deathblow. Ready to face the truth? Q: Who is speaking in Romans 6:1? A:  The apostle  Paul —a faithful Christian, divinely inspired. Q: Who does the word "we" refer to? A:  To  Paul and other Christians . Those already  saved ,  baptized , and  wal...

“And Such Were Some of You”: A Scriptural Mandate for Total Transformation

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog Doctrinal Refutation of LGBTQ+ in Light of 1 Corinthians 6:9–11 “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” (1Cor. 6:9-11) I. INTRODUCTION: The Most Critical Battle for the Soul of the Church In the face of a growing movement that seeks to normalize LGBTQ+ identity within the church—arguing that “as long as they don’t practice homosexual sex, it’s acceptable”—we turn to God’s inspired Word , not cultural trends, for the truth. One prominent preacher even argues that effeminate behavior, gay gestures, and homosexual identi...

The Divine Origin and Preservation of the Holy Scriptures

English 🇵🇭 Tagalog The Divine Origin and Preservation of the Holy Scriptures By the Hand of God Introduction This study answers a critical doctrinal question: Is the Bible merely a product of men, or is it truly the work of God’s hand? Through Scripture alone, we will demonstrate that: ·         The origin of every word in the Bible is from God. ·         The process of writing it down was by divine guidance. ·         The preservation of the Scriptures through the ages is a deliberate act of God’s providence. I. THE BIBLE: WRITTEN BY MEN, AUTHORED BY GOD “ All Scripture is  God-breathed  (θεόπνευστος –  theopneustos )…” —  2 Timothy 3:16 A.
