looking at their churches,-temples, I thought [wrongly apparently] they were a renegade branch of the LDS Mormon church. design style is very similar, on the grandiose scale.

Key difference: They have political power and have been known to kill former members. Very dangerous to become an ex-INC
=S
F!cking cult!!

"The Iglesia ni Cristo proclaims itself to be the one true church and claims that it is the restoration of the original church founded by Jesus and that all other Christian churches, including the Roman Catholic Church, are apostates."
Sounds familiar.

I emailed JWfacts about this at least a year ago and Paul replied .
He knows about them . His wife is Filipino
Also the founder of that cult was in America 100 yrs ago and was exposed to the bible students

Makes a good case for "parallel evolution", doesn't it?

From Wikipedia:
The church's founder Felix Manalo was born to a catholic family but studied with Seventh Day Adventists and became a pastor. His second wife was a deaconess in the SDA. They became disillusioned with the Sabbath obsservance and started their own church which is known by its initials INC. Interestingly, it was registered with the government in 1914. (That SDA background explains the parallel teachings as that's where Russell found them.) However, Manalo's family still runs the show...his grandson is Executive Minister. The national historical society erected a statue of him at his birthplace and the president of the Philippines designated July 27 (the date in 1914 on which the religion was registered) as national INC day so all its followers can observe the "solemn day".

While we're making suggestions, what about the Two by Twos and Cooneyites mentioned by Island Man recently: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/279466/1/Who-else-is-preaching-in-twos-Who-else-is-putting-kingdom-interests-first-Who-else-rejects-the-trinity#.U2fbpSgR9as
I do think JWFacts should add all three of these groups.
