Arise Bangon Pilipinas!

The Crest is Rising

After visiting the Philippines during the Onduy and Pepeng typhoons, we came away with the feeling that the Filipino people are the most courageous and unselfish people in the world.

The government was very limited on their assistance to those hundreds of thousands of people who lost everything in the flooding which followed the storm. What we saw was neighbor assisting neighbor, churches helping, humanitarian organizations helping, the military helping and thousands of friends from all over the world sending in relief goods and money.

There is nothing that can damper the spirit of the Filipino people! And this is why the next election is so important and exciting!

A new era of selflessness and generosity is arising. This is a key component of "mainline" Christianity. There is only one religion in the world that espouses ongoing generousity and humanitarian services and that is Christianity.

Today there is one candidate who can bring this spirit of goodwill and integrity to the nation and that is the presidential candidate of Bangon Pillipinas. Traveling throughout the cities and natoin, we find that when people realize that he is again a candidate for the next election they are excited and inspired.

Regardless of political or religious affiliation, the people are looking for a leader who can lead them to becoming a great influence in Asia both politically and economically.

Please take the time to do some research on the internet and look up Brother Eddie Villanueva and see how the Bangon Pilipinas is taken back the nation one barrio at a time!

GLORIA OR GLORIOUS?

GLORIA OR GLORIUS?
by Adelle McKinney

As corruption and scandals continue to rock the Philippines Islands and politicians manipulate votes and encourage unethical behavior inside and outside of office, the Spirit of God is moving across the islands, building into a crescendo of violent shaking! Not an earthquake or a man made shaking, but a shaking that will rock not only the islands but all surrounding neighbors as well.

The glorious church is marching to victory? Which church? The church of the first born, the church of God, the born again church, the Jesus church, the blood washed, church of the redeemed!

Everywhere, God's people are getting involved in the process. From the smallest little hamlet to the metropolitan arenas, God's people are pouring our their hearts in prayer and repentance that the 1000 islands will be placed under a new mantle of leadership in the 2010 elections, one that is God ordained and God inspired.

Have you not heard? Do the winds not declare it is a change of seasons for this nation? The battle ground is not the election ballot, nor the halls of the Congress, nor the crime filled streets of the city. The battleground is in the prayer sanctuaries that have sprung up all over the nation, from Manila to the North, South, East and West, believers of all denominations are falling on their knees crying out to God to raise a righteous leader in the nation that will lead them out of corruption into a new era of integrity and prosperity where all men are created equal and have opportunities to fulfill their dreams, support their families with dignity and freedom to worship God in the public arena.

The flag bearer of this movement is Bro. Eddie Villanueva, President and found of the Jesus is Lord movement. For over 30 years, Bro. Eddie has been inspiring millions of Filipinos to serve God and enjoy the blessings and fruit of a godly life. Through his influence millions of Filipinos have received Jesus Christ as Lord! For the next 10 months, he is sacrificing his life and ministry to reach every city and village with a message of hope and salvation as he runs for the highest office in the land, the President of the Philippines.

Respected by the major Christian leaders of this nation, Bro. Eddie's dream is to see the Philippines removed from the curse of sin, poverty and disease and brought into the position it once had, "Pearl of the Orient."

Without the support of Christians around the world, praying and interceding for the Philippines and for this divine mission that God has placed Bro. Eddie in, the battle will be fierce and overwhelming. Through the International Ends of the Earth Prayer Towers, 24 hours of streaming prayer will be going around the world from Manila, to Jerusalem, Germany, to England, to New Jersey, to New Mexico, to California, to Hawaii and back to the Philippines in one constant stream of intercession.

These believers do not have a color TV, nor computers

, nor automobiles, nor credit cards, nor designer clothes or handbags. All they have is a desire to see God move within their nation, and replace ungodly leadership with godly leadership.

This coming October, one of the largest political rallies in history will take place with an estimated more than three million citizens and hundreds of Christian leaders from all over the world will be gathering in Manila to launch the campaign of Bro. Eddie in prayer, fasting and praise as he begins the journey and divine destination that God had already purposed for his life before he was born, Spiritual leader of the Philippines.

Bangon Bagong Pilipinas

We first met Dr. Eddie Villanueva in May of 1979. Our first trip to Manila was exciting. We were going there to host our first international missionary evangelist crusade.

At the airport, Eddie's sister, Leni Buan Narciso, was greeted with banners and waving family members and members of the newly established Jesus is Lord Fellowship.

Eddie approached us. He was unusually thin and was just recovering from complete exhaustion working endlessly to reach out to Filipinos with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

As we sat and listened to this new friend and young man share his dreams and visions for the ministry and for his nation, we could see his compassion for the struggling masses of people. Whenever he spoke or preached the passion for God and compassion for the people was always evident.

We were privileged to ordained Bro. Eddie to preach the gospel to the nation.
Each year for 10 years we came back to the Philippines to hold rallies and crusades to reach the lost and establish Jesus is Lord Fellowship as a bonifide church.

God blessed Bro. Eddie and the leaders there working diligently with the masses and the poor. Although building a wonderful ministry and transforming lives such as the "Tondo" boys who came from abject poverty and are now fine business men and pastors serving all over the Philippines, Bro. Eddie's heart never neglected the
urgency of the spirit to promote justice, mercy, equality and opportunity to the people of the nation. He did it through his preaching, through the ministry outreaches of Jesus is Lord, as he travelled the world establishing branches and churches.

As we spoke sometime in 1981 upon his first visit to the United States, he often spoke of his devotion and love for his beloved country. He had dreams and visions of the Philippines becoming the bread basket for Asia, a launching pad for the gospel.

At the time both we and his sister invited him to come to America and pastor here and bring the family. But he could not give us a positive response because he told us, he was called to pastor in the Philippines and no matter how attractive life in the US was, he couldn't neglect the struggling masses of people in the Philippines.

We believe that there is no other potential candidate who could impact the nation of the Philippines as Dr. Eddie Villanueva.

He has spent his entire life building up people to have a better life in Jesus Christ. If God would allow Dr. Villanueva to bring reform to the presidency of the Philippines, we bellieve that the Philippines would go from the bottom to
the top of the economic ladder in Southeast Asia. The Filipino people are educated, they speak English and they are generally brilliant in business, services, and all field of medicine.

Bangon Bagong Pilipinas!
