LIFE’S INSPIRATIONS: “… And I will put hostility between you and the woman and between your offspiring and her offspring; her offspring will attack your head and you will attack her offspring;s heels…” (Genesis 3:15, the Holy Bible).

GOD CAME TO EARTH AS A BABY, AS A SON: Isaiah 9:6 is a verse in the Bible that tells us that the son who will be conceived and given birth to by a virgin was not a simple human being, though the woman who gave birth to him was human, and although the boy was to be born in the way like any other human being had been born before him. Isaiah 9:6 is clear: the boy is the “Almighty God, Everlasting Father”.

HAS DUTERTE ACTED ON P50 M BRIBERY IN BI? Can someone please tell me if I missed what President Duterte did to Deputy Immigration Commissioners Mike Robles and Al Argosino? I mean, I have not heard of any news that the President acted, one way or the other, for or against Robles and Argosino.
Robles and Argosino caught national attention when CCTV cameras caught them receiving some P50 million as a bribe for some 1,300 Chinese nationals working illegally at the casino of online gambling operator Jack Lam at the Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga.
At the time this matter was disclosed through national TV, Duterte was telling Filipinos in Cambodia that our citizens should be encouraged to report to him any corruption among his officers, because he will kill the corrupt immediately. Has the President complied with this promise in the case of Robles and Argosino?

DUTERTE DOES NOT WANT DOUBLE STANDARDS: Yes, I have been told that some kind of an internal—whatever that means, of course—investigation is ongoing against the two, that the results of that inquiry and the action of the President would be announced right away.
But, isn’t this “internal inquiry” before any punishment is meted out against Robles and Argosino at odds with what is happening to other Filipinos who are merely suspected of being involved in illegal drugs?
The problem here is that, people will begin to feel and think, rightly or wrongly, that there are two prevailing standards of justice in going after criminals and other offenders under the Duterte government, similar to the double standard of the Aquino government—one for friends and allies, and another for the enemies or those who do not have any connections at all. President Duterte does not like this, I am sure!

GOD THE FATHER IN THE FORM OF A MAN: Let me repeat what Isaiah 9:6 states: “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given… And he will be called… Mighty God, Everlasting Father…” This verse speaks in past tense, which means to say, the birth of the child, or the son, has already happened. This means to say further that the One who was born is not just a child, or just a son, but God the Father Himself.
The Anak ng Diyos Kadugo Ni Kristo (AND KNK, or the Children of God Blood Kin of the Christ) Church believes that this particular verse (Isaiah 9:6) is a proof from God the Father that He Himself came down in human form, in flesh and blood, on account of His great love for humanity. When correlated with Matthew 1:18-25 of the Bible, it is not difficult to see that God the Father is Jesus Himself.
