Now look what we got here. Jose Rodelio Retome Rata, aka THE REBUKER, thought this had nothing to do with Cyrus of Persia. Take note; taken during the exile, and the Jews were captives of the Babylonian Empire. Now what did Isaiah prophesy about them?
I'll break down the whole chapter and have it analyzed by THE REBUKER if he can, and we'll see what this was all about. I'll highlight the part that will be easy for you to understand, Jose. Tell me when this was and what the status of the Jews was during this Prophecy? Also, who was Isaiah calling to if this is not Cyrus of Persia, then how did the Philippines Messenger of the Far, Far East, help the Israelites from captivity?

1 Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast.2 They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.3 Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:4 And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.5 To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?6 They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he maketh it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship.7 They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he standeth; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.8 Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.12 Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:13 I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
Now, examine that and answer this questions - Just when did Felix Manalo fulfill those words and help the captive Israelites out of Babylon? Just when did Felix Manalo take action in gathering them to their homeland and have them worship their God? Straight Answer: NONE
Now, what's the relationship with these scriptures that you added? Let's Check it out -
AWIT 107:11,119:172 & ROMA 1:16-17
Context: This was given for those people who rebelled and will soon receive a condemnation, yet if they call on repentance and praise the Lord, they will receive deliverance. (see succeeding verse Psalm 107:10-31)Psalm 107:11 - Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the Most High.
Context: This is the Longest Chapter of the Bible, which has 176 verses, but what was this all about? Does Jose Rata quote it on purpose? The specific verse he quoted was actually is not complicated to understand. The chapter shows that the Psalmist was dedicated to his devotion to God, nothing much about it. So is this all about the issue of the Context referencing Isaiah's Prophecy? NO!Psalm 119:172 - My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness.
Context: This was one of Paul's declarations of his commission and authority. This has nothing to do with Cyrus of Persia and doesn't even say anything about Felix Manalo, which simply means it was just a random scripture verse that doesn't have a direct relation to the issue. Fail!Romans 1:16-17 - For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Okay, so again, what was this all about, Jose Rodelio Retome Rata? Just a Nonsense statement that has nothing to do with the issue. Seems like you're running out of stones.
See where you people failed, even in a crystal clear historical prophecy you can't even comprehend or should we say it arrogantly avoid for the sake of ideology. You're still a failure Jose Rodelio Retome Rata aka THE REBUKER.
