...Ciudad de Victoria, Bocaue, Bulacan. The said film was also a major production of the church, Iglesia ni Cristo and with its whole support, the movie became more than just a successful one; it was a mega-blockbuster hit. Originally, it was a 6-hour film, but during its premiere, only the cut-short 3-hour version was screened. The film is a historical drama portraying the life of Bro. Felix Ysagun Manalo, the first executive minister of the Iglesia ni Cristo and regarded as the messenger of God in these last days. The film was shot in a sepia-like filter which gave me the impression of it being shot in an era where colored pictures have yet to exist. The soundtrack and music video of the film entitled “Ang Sugo ng Diyos sa mga Huling Araw” was released on October 4, 2015 at the Philippine Arena. It was performed by Sarah Geronimo, composed by Joan and Ryan Solitario and arranged by Louie Ocampo. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand up as it played and it also moved me like how a worship service hymn would. It revolves on how Bro. Felix Manalo survives all the struggles, and the problems he faced just to discover the one true church. The purpose of the said film is to know, learn and share the history of how the Iglesia Ni Cristo was established. As a member of the Church of Christ, I really appreciated every second of the movie especially in the Japanese period. It made my faith so much stronger. Words can’t...

...Urbiztondo, Jonell D. BSME- II(GO) Mr. Alcoreza Chapter v Laws Laws are regulations or rules that we, individuals need to follow. It is made to make a country or any particular place in order. It is made by the people in the government or the legislator, God and the people who have the capability to do it. There are different kinds of laws. These are the one made by God or divine law and the one made by the human beings or human law. The one made by God or the divine law is the one that has been given by God, after Moses saved some Israelites. This is what the Catholics called The Ten Commandments. The only punishment you will get from breaking this law is to pray what the priest will tell to you to pray. The other law is the one made by the human or the human law. It is the laws that have been made by the people in the government or the legislator. Before this law has been approved there’s a lot of procedure that happened. Unlike the divine law, the punishment when you break this law is going to jail or paying bail. There are some human laws or the law that has been made by the legislators that are alike the divine law or the law that has been made by God. One of the examples of that is seventh commandment of God that tells us not to commit adultery. In the human law or the law that has been made by human, adultery is also prohibited.

...2. As a Catholic, Christian, Iglesia Ni Cristo or Muslim am I living the way it should be? I did take a step to see and explore things in life. I have seen and known much as I wanted. All those crimes in every corner of the world, a piece of paper controlling people, suit and tie surpassing the poverty, inequality among men, corruption all over the place, teenagers doing unimaginable things, and even a broken home which I also is one of the products of it, are these events supposed to happen? If people are capable of having an initiative of emphasizing the point of this issue, understanding and fixing ones inner feelings while putting it to work, reducing ones pride and selfishness, respecting each beliefs and if only we value the essence of God’s love for us. How beautiful this place could be, destroying all the system made, and creating a new dimension of our life where we can let God change our hearts. Since the beginning of time, religion has been the topic. People were being criticized, tortured, burnt to death, nailed up on a cross and sacrificed their life, just to keep the faith instilled in them so that future generation will be benefited. In connection, it takes place because we individuals have different way of thinking resulting to a different view on it. Remarkably, different perspective, different faith immersed, and different people with selfishness and pride appeared. Afterward schism intervened between the churches thus, resulting on whom to trust our morality...

...Third Gender – Equality and Truth http://caissg.org/third-gender-equality-truth/ It is a brave and honest person who can stand apart from the masses and openly challenge its most treasured beliefs. ~ Donna Evans As humans, we understand a little about our complex bodies even with the greatest medical science. It is what it is. Then why lie? Secrecy and stigma are worse than the condition itself. Without truth and transparency, it is difficult to pass laws, provide equal rights, offer support and help for all. We need to have an environment which encourages truth, tolerance, and respect for all. Are there only two genders or is there a third gender?Regardless of which side of the issue you are on, we can all agree thattruth is always the right option and secrecy and lying have no place for a long-term solution in a civilized society. There are several issues withsecrecy and lying. First it is wrong. Second it does not take into account the feelings and trauma of the person being lied to. Third it could lead to criminal acts such as if lying is a crime under oath. What are the bioethics for disclosure to spouses? It is NOT about gender identity or it is NOT about the sexual identity, it is about the HUMAN identity which is to say the truth. As a human being, everyone deserves a feeling of “belonging”, understanding and acceptance.

...POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES 1 Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Governance, politics and nation building: such serious terms that before were for adults only. It is because enough capacity, maturity, experience, strength and vitality are needed to perform these heavy tasks. Democracy in the Philippines contributed in paving the way for almost everyone to take part in these noble duties. Every Filipino is free to participate, support and lend a hand towards greater moral, social and economic achievement. With the freedom that we have, the youth had also been trained and entrusted to perform such duties for years, in hope and belief that they are the future builders of this country. This has been a part of our culture and politics. In fact, Philippines pioneered the youth participation in local governance which means that our country has been investing in young people for decades. Thanks to that famous line of our great national hero, “The youth is the hope of the nation.” Perhaps, that very line of Dr. Jose P. Rizal is what inspired the creation of Sangguniang Kabataan. Former Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos believed in the capability of youth in leadership when he enshrined youth participation in politics. The Kabataang Barangay (KB) or “Village Youth” was a youth organization at the grassroots level created in 1975. A decade after, Sangguniang Kabataan or SK has been POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES institutionalized in relation...

...CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND INTRODUCTION Marriage is one of the deepest and most complex involvements of human relationships. It is a corner stone of society and a very necessary part of the social system. It is a crucial and sacred bond between two personalities merging into one for ideas, attitudes, habits and likes and dislikes. In Philippines marriage is considered a lifelong partnership. It is the foundation stone on which the family is built. Basically marriage is a social and legal contract. People marry great number of reasons- personal or social. Usually they have a certain preconceived notions about the kind of person they would like to marry. The large percentage of separation each year, non-marital pregnancies and premarital cohabitation have all dramatically changed the traditional family structure (Amato et.al, 2003). Millions of children are no longer being raised in nuclear families. The institution of marriage, the backbone of society, appears to be under threat. Marriage has, despite demographic and political shifts, significant value for the individual, families and the society (Nock, 2005). When looking at marriage as an institution, as opposed to a free-standing concept, marriage represents socially sanctioned behavior. Marriage embraces traditionally virtuous, legal and predictable assumptions concerning what is moral and what is proper (Nock, 2005). Through marriage an individual is transformed; they are perceived and treated differently...

...WORKING WITH ABUSED CHILDREN 1 / CHAPTER ONE The Abuse of Filipino Childr en Filipino families consider children as gifts from God (Bulatao 1975). They are persons who inspire love and affection and bring happiness and security in the twilight years of parents. Interestingly, children are seen as links to immortality because children pass on from one generation to another the family’s name, history, and heritage. Often, children are portrayed as being nurtured and properly attended to in their homes; however, Filipino children are not as secure and protected as they are ideally portrayed. The increasing number of street children who work on the streets or beg for alms from pedestrians and motorists belie such an idealized portrayal. Street children, among other things, are the most palpable reminder that all is not well with Filipino children. Reality reveals the many children who are denied even the most minimum of needs like food, love, nurturance, stability, security, and stimulating learning environment that will allow for their healthy development. Many Filipino children are rushed into maturity because early on in their lives, they are forced to contend with difficult problems and to take on adult roles and responsibilities. Media and popular and academic literature, more than any other time, has brought to our attention the plight of children, be they street children or not, who perform adult roles and who are in need of the basic components ...
