Leave a comment INTIMIDATION June 6, 2013Uncategorized “Loyalty is gain through hard work and perseverance but is gained faster through intimidation.” – The Godfather The Quizon family is using this kind of manipulation to the IBMA Missionaries because they have hold on their bread and butter (support). Who is not afraid to lose their support? Once the missionaries object and fight the Quizon, is like hitting the wall and will just get hurt themselves. Manny Quizon is a very dominant person, so are his children Sally, John and Ruth and son-in-laws Elmer and Arvin. Who are we in their sight? We are just like lice to them that they can easily crush. They think that they are gods/ lords and the missionaries are like slave to them. They don’t have respect on the same authority as being servant of God. Their is much accountability in their part because “much given is also much the accountability.” And we are not exempted. The Quizon family is building a kingdom through Independent Baptist Mission for Asians. They are the owner of IBMA Compound, Tarlac Christian College and the Isle of Patmos and others. Until now they are not facilitating the copy of the accounts concerning the Monthly Support, Project Nehemiah and the Project money of the missionaries. They are safe because they are not issuing receipts of support, project Nehemiah and the project money. No wonder they are bad grass because they hard to be rooted out. The recent meeting was great because it was more spiritual and positive but the sad thing is they were doing it to cover their anomalies. How long will they continue to be like this? They are damn, “for whatsoever you sow you will reap.” This is the thing, the more it will not be answered correctly, the more we are obsessed to resist them. It will spread to the internet and the American supporters will eventually surprise to know it. And believe us, it is already happening. What will you do? We believe that you are just waiting for the collapse of IBMA. Why not save your ministry and other missionaries? Your hard labor will just comes to nothing like Gabino Tica. Think about this. This is a warning! Their will be a massive act to spread the news about your being an opportunist. INTIMIDATION!
