COULD ‘APPOINTED SON OF GOD’ QUIBOLOY COMMIT A CRIME?

-

“...I am the production of the spiritual sacrifice on the cross. He took it away from Satan Lucifer the devil and delivered it to the Appointed Son (me, myself), the fruit of his work completed the spiritual corpus...” -- Senior Pastor Quiboloy

Pastor Apollo Carreon Quiboloy, founder and senior pastor of Kingdom of Jesus Christ, said he did not commit a crime. He was detained after $350,000 in cash and rifle components were found in his private jet in Hawaii.

Quiboloy, whose Davaobased KJC claims a membership of four million across the country and two million overseas, supported President Duterte in the 2016 election.

He didn’t commit a crime, he said upon his return to the country. His spokesman said Quiboloy was not detained although he was not released until after several hours and only after Felina Salinas, the KJC leader in Hawaii and a U.S. citizen, claimed ownership of the contraband. Quiboloy’s private jet was impounded.

But if he were the “appointed son of God,” as he says he is, Quiboloy didn’t commit a crime and couldn’t have committed any crime.

Although the NPA had accused him of killing in 2008 a Klata-Bagobo chief and his family and his men of evicting by force in 2014 tribesmen from the land that was added to his eight-hectare compound, the KJC headquarte­rs in Davao. His claim is that there are two sons of God: one begotten and one appointed. One for Jewish setting and the other for the Gentiles. Quiboloy’s critics say Jesus is the only Son of God, both begotten and appointed.
