By some twist of fate, the consistent top-notcher did not finish his secondary schooling. Barely three months before graduation, he dropped out of school after a skirmish with the acting school directress, the cause - religious difference. It seemed to be the end of his education and career as he was expected by everyone to become a famous lawyer, a doctor or a brilliant scientist in the future. However it turned out later on that there was not really a twist of fate but rather a manifestation of God's work of hand bringing him to his real destiny.

The incident paved way for his vocation. After which he began studying the Bible. His interest in the Holy Book was sparked by his membership in the religion of his parents. Baptized in the congregation-Members of the Church of God in Christ Jesus, the Pillar and the Ground of Truth in the Philippines under the leadership of the late Nicolas Perez, on April 7, 1964 at the age of 17, he was so zealous in his religion. The Bible has been his constant companion since then, faithfully seeking, asking and finding all answers from the Holy Scripture.

After sometime, he became a preacher, a debater and a minister in the Congregation. He was also a special confidante of Mr. Perez, explaining to him the teachings and the mysteries of the word of God, other ministers hardly comprehend, unknowingly grooming him to become the next leader. Thus, in such circumstance he has gained an extraordinary discernment if not mastery of the Bible, a discernment that would not be possible without the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Such understanding of the Bible remains an enigma to preacher or minister or even TV evangelists who sees him as a rival as he speaks of their wrong-teachings.

Presently the author is the leader of the Congregation. From the seventeener neophyte Bible-reader, he has gone leaps and bounds along with the congregation's undertakings, which have also grown into immense proportions. Ironically, the size of the Organization is capable of supporting ambitious activities such as the numerous orphanages and foundations it sustains, the educational institutions, the radio and television production of religious shows and other activities such as charity shows, concert, song recording etc. The most controversial TV show in the local religious world is being produced by the Organization. It is known as "Ang Dating Daan" (The Old Path). The program has incited discussions and even debates on religious issues and controversies inducing people to be interested in reading the Bible. It has also trained his followers to be meticulous enough that in the pursuit of truth and salvation, everything that one does should have the formidable basis on the Holy Scriptures.
