MCGI: Getting Ready for Q1 2011 International Thanksgiving

 "God's Word will prevail. Obey him or not, He will prevail. Believe Him or not, He is God. You cannot add to Him, you cannot deduct anything from Him. He do not need us, we need Him... Whether we follow, whether we disobey, He will be like Himself forever... He will always be GOD... believe Him or not, He will not lost anything, but if we do not believe, we will lost everything..."  - Bro Eli Soriano

True, indeed. So on this coming 25-27th of March 2011, Members of Church of God International will again gather and offer Thanksgiving and praises to our God. In this light, hundred thousands members will rush to the ADD Convention Center in Pampanga, Philippines and in major coordinating centers worldwide,. They will not only be well-equipped with the things needed for the three day-event, but also have a prepared heart to absorb all the new wisdoms that will be opened through God's messengers of our time, Bro Eli Soriano and Bro Daniel Razon. And of course, excitement and delight  can be expected in each member's face amidst the physical discomforts that awaits. Aside from the prepared topics, Bro Eli will also impart additional knowledge during consultation time wherein members and non-members as well, will get an opportunity to ask him things concerning faith and other issues. 

And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.

 As what Bro Eli keeps on reminding the whole congregation, the best thing men can give to God is following His law and continuously give thanks to Him. Whatever men have in life- good things or seems-to-be-bad-things, God has given it to mankind for betterment. Nobody may know what it is, and it may also remain unknown, but it doesnt matter. He knows best, and no one can question it.  And because of these,  MCGI is giving thanks to God as frequent as doing a 3-day International Thanksgivng for four times a year, and weekly whole day Thanksgiving. MCGI is the only and first ever religious group that does thanksgiving this way.

I Tessalonica 5:18 -give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Acts 17:28 -For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.
