TELL ME WHERE IT HURTS
(Culture of Truth Sermon Series)
Speaker: Ptr. Alfred Atega

// In social media, we often carefully choose what to share, wanting to present ourselves in the best light. //
// Just like on what we wanted to say or whn we see something negative or hurtful from others, we tend to hold back, afraid of how they might perceive us or get upset, especially when it involves someone close to us
// Let's face it, not all of us are confrontational. //
.. But the question is, have we ever stopped to ask ourselves, is our silence really an act/expression of love? As we are avoiding a conflict out of fear of hurting someone?

* Proverbs 27:5 "Open rebuke is better than hidden love."

Hidden Love
- It is like ignoring wrong actions because we're afraid of what might happen if we speak up. We hesitate to confront as they may get mad or malain.
- And that is where "chismis" starts to form. As we cannot confront the person, we talk about the issue others instead of talking it out to the person.
- We all know that "Chismis" spreads like a wild fire. the story will get to you maybe "kulangan" or "manobra". It's either of the two.
- Gossip that can quickly go out of control. This often leads to misunderstanding and chaos, rather than resolution.
* Proverbs 10:10 “Whoever winks maliciously causes grief, and a chattering fool comes to ruin.”

Open Rebuke
- Open rebuke doesn't mean embarrassing someone or attacking their character.
- But is is a confrontation that is direct but private.
* Matthew 18:15 ““If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over.”
- A confrontation is trully painful to receive. It can hurt, but the good thing in it, but when it aligns with God’s Word, it has the power to do good.
* Hebrews 4:12 “For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”
* ‭‭Proverbs 27:6 "“Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses.”
- A confrontation rooted in God's word can indeed be painful, but it is ultimately for our own good. It may wound us temporarily, yet in it, we find the truth that can lead to growth and understanding.
- Though the truth can hurt, the eventual gain and healing are worth the initial discomfort.

How do we deliver a Godly rebuke?

1. Check your motives.
* Galatians 6:1 “Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted.”
- This urges us to restore gently, being cautious of our intentions.
- Are we seeking to shame or genuinely to help?

2. Choose privacy over gossip or public shame.
- An open rebuke should be focused and respectful, engaging privately rather than posting the issue on social media, "magpa dungog2" or in a crowd.

3. Our rebuke should have the perfect/right balance or "timpla"
- Just like brewing a coffee, the first thing we noticed about it is its aroma.
- And by that, when confronting a person, a balanced approach is the key. Start with a positive fragrance, a kind note, acknowledging something good about the person. (Compliment him/her, or say any positive things t the person)
- Then, gently share your concern, ensuring they truly understand your heart. Avoid starting with aggression, which only creates shame and defensiveness to the person.
- And lastly, end with a sweet advice/encouraging words, guidance, or a call to action.

4. We must understand that we are God's messenger.
- Remember, we are God's messengers. Our role is to bring His truth with love, not judgment.
- Yes, confronting can cause pain, but just like a mao guiding a lost traveler back to the right path.

// You know, it is easy to rebuke someone. But what if you are on the receiving end? How do you react?

LOWER YOUR PRIDE.
* Proverbs 12:1 reminds us, "Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid."
- Be open to correction. Resist the urge to retaliate because that's the reality especially when we don't like what they said and what's worse, is that, when you don't like that person who confronted you
- Despite it, keep your heart and mind receptive, understanding that even in the uncomfortable truths, these are our opportunities for growth.
- Though we may not like the person who delivered it and the message might hurt, let’s remember it’s meant for our good. we should not forsake the message of the confrontation.

Conc:
// This sermon calls us to something deeper than comfort, it calls us to love with courage. //
//Real love is not hidden or silent when something is wrong, and it is not harsh when speaking the truth.
// But it chooses honesty, even when it’s uncomfortable, because it desires growth, healing, and restoration.//
//We must learn to confront with grace and also receive correction with humility. //
// Because sometimes, love will hurt, but it is a pain that leads to healing. //
// So let us be the people who speak the truth in love
and are willing to grow when truth is spoken to us.//

So, Tell me where it hurts

03/17/26
JCGIA Cabinet was given the blessed opportunity to conduct a school recollection for the Gr.12 graduating students of Doña Rosario National High School.

There were 67 student participants who were then joined by their parents in the afternoon.

Reflecting on the life of David, we talked about how to be established and eventually rise up in career and life in general - how relevant it is to be humble, to be available, to be faithful despite opposition, and to be sure and secure in God.

We also addressed the relevance of getting connected to God, to one's self, and to others - believing that we become the best version of ourselves only when these connections are redeemed.

The whole JCGIA Cabinet Team is grateful to work with Ma'am Belle, Ma'am Grace, Ma'am Cristine, Ma'am Mariel, Ma'am Via, and the rest of the school admin. To more partnerships ahead.

What a fruitful day indeed to see souls meet God - His Love, His Direction, and His Freedom.

Culture of Truth Sermon Series
II. Watch your Words!
By: Sis Bernadette Tungul

Our words (communication) are foundational to all our human interactions. We are authors publishing 50 books a year through our mouth - thus the necessity to pause and ask - what kind of words are we sending out to the world?

❓️❓️❓️What God's Word say about our words?

Dapat magbantay kita sa atong pulong! Dapat adunay tinuyuan atong mga pulong.

📖📖📖 James 3:1-12

1. Watch your words because you have accountability over it. (Pagbantay kay duna kay tulubagon sa imong mga pulong.)

Ang atong pulong is part of God's delegated authority to us.

📖📖📖 SANTIAGO 3:1
[1] Mga igsoon ko, dili kinahanglan nga daghan kaninyo ang mahimong mga magtutudlo kay nahibalo man kamo nga labaw ka higpit ang paghukom nga atong madawat.

‼️‼️‼️ We have accountability to God.

📖📖📖 Mateo 12:36-37
[36] “Sultihan ko kamo nga sa Adlaw sa Paghukom, ang matag usa ka tawo mohatag unya ug husay sa matag walay pulos nga pulong nga iyang gisulti. [37] Kay ang inyong mga pulong mao usab unya ang gamiton sa paghukom kaninyo aron maila kon kamo sad-an ba o dili.

❤️❤️❤️ Our words are a gift from God. God authored communication itself. God, through the Holy Spirit, inspired the Bible.

📢📢📢 The problem? People are too casual. People are negligent.

📢 For the world: much words, much money.
📢 For God: more words, greater accountability.

Two judgment we will face:
1. Judgement of faith (confess that Jesus is Lord) = leads to salvation
2. Judgement of words (also thoughts and actions, good or bad) = leads to gain or loss of heavenly rewards

The beautiful thing about our God is that He weighs our motives or intentions.

Accountability teaches us to be humble.

Pastors, leaders - you have greater accountability.
Be aware. Be warned.

2. Watch your words.
Restraint reflects maturity.

Santiago 3:2 RCPV
[2] Kitang tanan masayop. Ang tawo nga dili masayop sa iyang pagpanulti hingpit ug makahimo sa pagpugong sa iyang kaugalingon.

📢📢📢 Lesser words = greater maturity.

‼️😅 Mga amang ra ang wa nakasala sa pulong.

🔥🔥🔥 Our speech is not just about what words to say, but also about how to say them and when to say them.

Gary V. on Alvin issue: Truth, even when it hurts, doesn't have to hurt more.

(It's painful enough.)

‼️‼️‼️ Speak with intention rather than react impulsively.

3. Watch your words for they have immense power.

Santiago 3:3-6
[3] Atong bukadohan ang baba sa kabayo aron mosunod kini bisag asa nato paadtoa. [4] Ug tan-awa usab ang mga barko: bisan pa sa kadagko niini ug gihuyop sa kusog nga hangin, gigiyahan lamang kini sa gamayng timon ug moadto bisan asa paadtoa sa kapitan. [5] Ingon usab niini ang dila: bisan sa kagamay niini makapangandak kini sa dagkong mga butang. Hunahunaa unsa kadako nga lasang ang masunog sa gamayng kalayo! [6] Ang dila sama sa kalayo. Kini maoy usa ka mangil-ad nga kalibotan nga bahin sa atong lawas ug nagbuling sa tibuok lawas ug nagpasilaob sa tibuok natong kinabuhi sa kalayo nga gikan gayod sa impirno.

Thankfully, our words have limited power compared to that of God's Word!!! (Maayo ra gyud). Nonetheless, our words have power.

📖📖📖 Mga Panultihon 18:21a
[21] Ang imong isulti makaluwas o molaglag sa kinabuhi,

‼️‼️‼️Speech is not neutral.

Careless or negative speech can damage relationships.

📖📖📖 Mga Panultihon 15:1
[1] Ang malumong tubag mohupay sa kasuko, apan ang sakit nga tinubagan mopasilaob niini.

📖📖📖 Mga Taga-Efeso 4:29
[29] Ayaw kamo paggamit ug daotang mga pulong kondili ang makatabang lamang ug makaayo sa mamati kaninyo.

‼️‼️‼️ Words once released can not be reclaimed. Spoken harm may not be fully repaired.

Repentance may heal heart but consequences may linger.

‼️‼️‼️Taste your words before you spit them out.

🔥🔥🔥Our words can influence our selves and our future - they can shape our reality!

📖🔥‼️ Our words have power in that when we decree a thing, it shall be established, it shall come to pass.

Speak to the problem.
Speak to the mountain.

4. Watch your words for the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.

📖📖📖 Santiago 3:9-12
[9] Ato kining gigamit sa pagpasalamat sa atong Ginoo ug Amahan ug sa pagtunglo sa atong isigkatawo nga gibuhat sama sa dagway sa Dios. [10] Ang mga pagpasalamat ug pagtunglo mogula sa mao rang baba. Mga igsoon, dili kini angayng mahitabo! [11] Dili mahimo nga maggikan sa usa lamang ka tubod ang tab-ang ug ang parat nga tubig. [12] Ang kahoyng igera dili makabunga ug olibo o ang paras makabunga ug igos o ang dagat makahatag ug tab-ang nga tubig.

📖📖📖 Lucas 6:45
[45] Ang maayong tawo magsultig maayo gikan sa maayong mga butang nga anaa sa iyang kasingkasing. Apan ang tawo nga daotan magbuhat ug daotan gikan sa mangil-ad nga mga butang nga anaa sa iyang kasingkasing. Kay kon unsa ang anaa sa kasingkasing sa tawo mao usab ang iyang isulti.

🔥🔥🔥 Be warned. God is not pleased with double standards!

If we know our worth, we should know the worth of other people!

What a way to celebrate women's month! Our Nanays gathered for a time of Worship. They found comfort, love, assurance, and support from one another, puso sa puso, buhay sa buhay - this is exactly what God calls us to - to be there for one another - in the name and for the glory of Christ!
Looking forward to the next Babad, Deborahs!!!

Culture of Truth
I. What's in the Word?

By: Bro. Weljo Espina

There is a division in what people think about the Bible, even among believers! But the truth outstands that The Bible is The Supreme Authority!

💯💯💯 When God speaks, It is Final. God has the ultimate power and control. He has the highest position to act and to rule.

Gen 1 records that God has supremacy over all creation. He created The Heavens and the earth.
"Let there be..." He speaks and all is created.

God has the ability to govern and command without limitation. Nothing can stand against Him.

If all creation bows before God, why is it difficult for human to submit?

Gen 1:26 (man created in God's likeness) - this is what separates us from all creation - the ability to decide.

📢📢📢 Adam and Eve disobeyed God and eventually, humanity was ripped off of the authority given them by God.

💡💡💡God has supremacy over history and human events. Everything that is happening moves according to His Will and His Word!!!

Then why does God allow "bad things" to happen? Because God wants to show the enemy that he (the enemy) has no authority. GOD WILL CHANGE THE SITUATION YOU ARE IN RIGHT NOW!!!
He did it before. He will do it again.
❤️❤️❤️Kaya kita Niya luwason sa mga butang that takes us captive!

EXODO 5:1
[1] Unya miadto si Moises ug si Aaron sa Paraon ug miingon kaniya, “Mao kini ang giingon ni Yahweh, ang Dios sa Israel, ‘Tugoti sa paglakaw ang akong katawhan aron sila makahimo ug kasaulogan alang kanako didto sa kamingawan.’ ”

Where you are in right now is not forever - God has the power to change your situation - when He Speaks, It happens - mao nga kinahanglan kita moRemain in the Word.

‼️‼️‼️God has Supremacy over life and death!

God has a plan to reconcile His people to Him, He chose us before the foundations of the world.

MGA TAGA-COLOSAS 1:16-17
[16] Kay pinaagi kaniya gibuhat ang tanang mga butang, diha sa langit ug dinhi sa yuta, makita ug dili makita, mga trono o kamandoan o pamunoan o kagahom. Ang tanang mga butang gibuhat pinaagi kaniya ug alang kaniya. [17] Siya mao na sa wala pa ang tanang mga butang, ug diha kaniya ang tanang mga butang nalangkob.

Through Jesus' death and ressurection, He broke the power of death and He is able to resurrect others.

Culture of Love - The Difficult Love Sermon Series
IV. Called to Love The Church
By: Pastor Alfred Atega

God = Love Himself

💡💡💡Filipinos have the gift in expanding Family Tree. Tanan Uncle or Auntie, tanan ig-agaw, tanan Kuya or Ate. We welcome everyone as family, beyond blood relations.
Gesture - pag-amin.

‼️‼️‼️Sa atong pagkasuod, naa pud diay bayad. Naa'y mga panahon na ngitngit ang kalibutan. Naa ta'y igsoon na alingogngog, naay hanginon, naay danghagon, etc.

💡💡💡We see these, kay suod man ta, duol man ta. This is very same within the church.

📖📖📖Mateo 22:34-40 APSD
[34] Sa pagkadungog sa mga Pariseo nga ang mga Saduseo wala gayoy nahimo kang Jesus, nagtigom sila pag-usab ug miduol kaniya. [35] Usa sa mga magtutudlo sa Kasugoan ang nangutana kang Jesus aron sa pagbitik kaniya. [36] Miingon siya, “Magtutudlo, unsa ba gayod ang labing mahinungdanon nga sugo diha sa Kasugoan?” [37] Mitubag si Jesus kaniya, “ ‘Higugmaa ang Ginoo nga imong Dios sa tibuok mong kasing-kasing, sa tibuok mong kalag, ug sa tibuok mong hunahuna.’ [38] Mao kini ang labing mahinungdanon nga sugo. [39] Ug ang ikaduha nga labing mahinungdanon susama sa nahauna, ‘Higugmaa ang imong isigka-tawo sama sa imong paghigugma sa imong kaugalingon.’ [40] Ang tibuok nga Kasugoan ni Moises ug ang mga sinulat sa mga propeta nalangkob niining duha ka sugo."

💡💡💡 In Torah, there were 613 laws, The Ten Commandments were like a Summary of all those.

Sa pagtubag ni Hesus, He exposed the hearts of the Pharisees and Saducees - focused on the Law, not on the purpose of the Law.

‼️‼️‼️Like the Pharisees, we are often caught up by the rules and forget what God actually wants.

‼️‼️‼️ Unya kay lisud man higugmaon ang alibugyaw?
Look at The Cross - it summarizes all 613 laws. As Jesus so said;
The vertical beam teaches us to Love God above all things.
The horizontal beam tells us to love one another.

❓️❓️❓️Unsa man jud diay ang tawag sa Ginoo kanato?

1. We are called to love The Church because we are part of this One Body!
When God looks at us, He sees a church, as part of His Own Body!

1 Corinto 12:12 APSD
[12] Ang lawas adunay daghang mga bahin. Apan ang mga bahin niini kabahin sa usa lang ka lawas. Sama usab niini ang mga tumutuo. Bisan nagkalain-lain ang mga hiyas nga gihatag sa matag usa kanato, kita usa lang ka lawas diha kang Cristo.

We share a single nervous system. If one aches, the whole body feels the pain. Dili ra iya or imong problema, kundi Atong problema!

2. We are called to Love the Church to make His promise a touchable reality!

Mateo 11:28 APSD
[28] “Duol kamo kanako, kamong tanan nga gikapoyan ug gibug-atan, ug papahulayon ko kamo.

❓️❓️❓️What Rest Jesus is referring to here?
The hands that knock, the feet that go. To extend help. Naay mga igsoon na moabot kay motabang.

3. We are called to Love the Church to make the Invisible God Visible.

Juan 13:35 APSD
[35] Kon maghigugmaay kamo, masayran sa tanan nga kamo akong mga tinun-an.”

Kita ang visual aid sa Ginoo. In Genesis, we are created in God's image.

4. We are called to Love the Church because She is God's Personal Choice.

MGA TAGA-EFESO 5:25-27
[25] Kamong mga bana, higugmaa ninyo ang inyong mga asawa, sama nga si Cristo nahigugma sa iglesia ug mitugyan sa iyang kaugalingon alang kaniya, [26] aron iyang balaanon siya sa mahinloan na niya siya pinaagi sa paghugas kaniya ug tubig pinaagi sa pulong, [27] aron nga sa iyang atubangan ang iglesia ikahalad diha sa iyang katahom, walay buling o kunot o bisan unsa nga sama niini, aron siya mahimong balaan ug dili masaway.

If we claim to love the Groom (Jesus), we have to love the Bride (The Church). Bisan pag dagha'y apan ang church. Jesus doesn't see the flaws, He sees the value of the bride, of the church! And so we ought to love what God chooses to love!

“Where two or three gather in His name, He is there among them.” — Matthew 18:20

We gathered — and He moved.
We worshiped — and He reigned.

Not just in songs,
but in surrendered hearts.

We placed our dreams at His feet,
our battles in His hands,
our future in His will.

One day
Eternal impact.

Together we proclaim:
Jesus over everything. 🙌🏻✝️

22/02/2026

As a Bible-believing church, we must not allow culture to dictate us. Instead, we cultivate the right values to influence the culture and eventually transform our community - one life at a time.
This March, understanding that "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Romans 10:17), we desire that all our words will be founded in The Word always, in all ways.
Thus, as mouthpieces, we live by The Truth of The Word - because This Truth is what we preach.
How then? In cultivating a Culture of Truth!
Do not miss a Sunday!
