It all started from very humble beginning. Bro. Eli Soriano initiallly did preaching in the Northern part of Philippines by doing simultaneous Bible studies from one town to another. Bro Daniel Razon who was still a young boy then was already helping him. After quite sometime of going rounds from town to town, they realized that they will not finish their mission if they will not look for a way on how they can do it faster. They were so worried then about their fellow coutrymen being deceived by false preachers and fall victim of their baseless doctrines.
With all these worries and concerns on their minds, Ang Dating Daan (The Old Path) radio program was born. In 1980, The Old Path program was first
aired over a local radio station, DWWA. It was also
later aired at different local radio stations like DZME, DWAD, DZRD, DWAN,
and DZXQ, aside from other provincial radio stationsall over the Philippines.One month after, his popularity spread like wildfire that Don Manolo Fabis of "This is Manolo and his Genius Family" noticed his prowess when it comes to Bible matters. After that, he became a regular part of the panel discussion that lasts for 3hours. Bro Eli made the once lame discussion become interesting because of his credible replies.
In 1984, they intensify the campaign, inspreading the Word of God, they took a great big leap by invading the local television via IBC 13. In its first weeks, viewership had sore high that enemies were shaken and alarmed. Doing the tapings were not easy. Each broadcast was painstakingly challenging for them to produce. Without sufficient money to buy broadcast equipment, all they did is improvising whatever resources they've got on hand. And take note: there were only three of them doing the whole task: Bro Daniel as the program director, cameraman, lightman, and editor. Sis. Luz Cruz as the executive producer, researcher, set decorator, and even as make-up artist. Bro Eli was of course the Speaker. With inferior equipment comes inferior production output, too. All unusual sound like humming of bird, dog barks and even the annoying sound that lizards produce was captured during taping because they used condenser for recording the voice instead of microphones. At one time, they thought the whole segment was finished only to realize in the end that all were not recorded and they need to do it all over again. The show was stopped for a while and a short time after airing again, it was asked to stop by detractors to be aired, obviously using their connections to harrass TOP. But can anybody stop God? The Old Path found a new home- RJTV29. After such, it moved to PTV4, then SBN21 and at present, it is continuously growing under the roof of UNTV37.
Then one big turn around of of events came to him and TOP members. A hopeless steward of lie along with other enemies conived and filed a fabricated rape case against Bro Eli. No choice left for him so he flew to a foreign land as his life might be in danger and things may worsen if brethrens fight for him in violent way. This was a sure blessing in disguise. By the bad deeds of oppressors, Bro Eli was able to start preaching people in far away places. These enemies were used by God to driive Bro Eli away who by that time was so hessitant to leave. A big door for bigger mission was opened for these two men,. At present, broadcasts in different countries has started. To mention some, The Old Path is now in the airwaves of North America, India, Papua New Guinea, Africa, Portugal, Bolivia, Argentina and Uruguay and Bro Daniel is still working out on few more that is yet to start.
Aside from TV and Radio, all means of propagating via internet were explored- Facebook, Twitter, blogging, and live webcasts via Justin TV. Many none-Filipinos were so thankful that they were able to know Bro Eli Soriano. Through him, their eyes were opened. Even long time preachers from various religious groups were amazed By bro Eli.
There are still lots of places that TOP has not reach yet. With God's help and mercy, all these will be possible with these two great men, Bro Eli Soriano and Bro Daniel Razon.
Thanks be to God for He gave these two men to us all...
