- 00:12
- I'm going to do a series of videos on Apollo Quibloy. Pastor Quibloy is actually a leader of a large movement in the
- 00:20
- Philippines and he has some teachings that are very questionable. So I'm going to deal with these questions and answer them in a series of videos.
- 00:29
- So the first question we want to ask is who is Apollo Quibloy? Apollo Quibloy was born in a small village in Davao City, if I'm pronouncing that correctly, in the
- 00:39
- Philippines. It is claimed that at his birth his mother saw a vision of the face of God smiling down from the sky which said to her, that is my son.
- 00:49
- After high school Quibloy attended a Bible College and later became the national youth president for the
- 00:55
- United Pentecostal Church. It was after this that he formed his own organization called the
- 01:01
- Kingdom of Jesus Christ or the Name Above Every Name Incorporated and he did this on September 1st 1985.
- 01:11
- Quibloy has since claimed that Jesus came to be the Savior for the Jewish people in their
- 01:17
- Jewish setting but that he is the Son of God for the people of the Gentiles or the non -Jews.
- 01:24
- Supposedly he was chosen by God for this very mandate on April 13th 2003 although it doesn't make us wonder how we
- 01:33
- Gentiles have done so well without him for the past nineteen hundred and seventy years.
- 01:39
- Anyhow Quibloy left his denomination the United Pentecostal Church with 15 members where he then set up his current ministry where he remains today.
- 01:50
- Interestingly he has since claimed that on April 13th 2005 that God has given him kingship, that God is finished with him and he is now in a state of perfection similar to Adam before the fall.
- 02:04
- Now in talking about Quibloy we need to also look at the influence of his teachings.
- 02:10
- It is suggested today that there are six million members, four million in the Philippines and two million abroad, the vast majority of which are in the
- 02:19
- Philippines although they're growing in such places as Australia, England, Kenya and many other nations.
- 02:26
- To see how successful they are you can just look at the link below. So Apollo Quibloy is so influential in the
- 02:32
- Philippines that he is starting to play a part in Filipino politics after recently praying for the former
- 02:39
- Filipino Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro, if I'm pronouncing that correctly again, to become the next president.
- 02:46
- He even had many presidential candidates at his recent 60th presidential or 60th birthday party
- 02:52
- I should say. So Apollo Quibloy is very influential, he has millions of and I'm going to explore his teachings in a series of following videos.
