Born - Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.
The idiocy of Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.: If God, who is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, has a mother, then the Bible is nothing but a book of lies! God could not be a real God if He came from a mother! Eternity simply means having no beginning and no end! How in the world could a God of eternity have a mother?

IS MARY THE “MOTHER OF GOD”?
That is Question No. 17 of Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr. in his book IMPORTANT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS, under which he wrote:
If God, who is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, has a mother, then the Bible is nothing but a book of lies!  God could not be a real God if He came from a mother!  Eternity simply means having no beginning and no end!  How in the world could a God of eternity have a mother?
Let us start educating Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr. on the Mother of God Issue:

[If God, who is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, has a mother, then the Bible is nothing but a book of lies!]
Let us see who the liar is: the Bible or Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.?
Said pastor mentioned a God, who is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, but he did not specifically identify who that God is.  So, let us start his education as to who the God is who is the Alpha and Omega and the First and the Last.
Who is the God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last?
According to Revelations 1:7-8 the Alpha and the Omega is the Almighty Lord God:
  • Behold, he is coming amid the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him. All the peoples of the earth will lament him. Yes. Amen.  “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “the one who is and who was and who is to come, the almighty.”  (Rv 1:7-8)
Who is coming amid the clouds?  According to the following testimonies, it is Jesus who is coming amid the clouds:
  • Jesus said to him in reply, “You have said so. But I tell you: From now on you will see ‘the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power’ and ‘coming on the clouds of heaven.'” (Mt 26:64)
  • And then they will see ‘the Son of Man coming in the clouds’ with great power and glory, (Mk 13:26)
  • Then Jesus answered, “I am; and ‘you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.'” (Mk 14:62)
  • And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. (Lk 21:27)
  • When he had said this, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight. While they were looking intently at the sky as he was going, suddenly two men dressed in white garments stood beside them. They said, “Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will return in the same way as you have seen him going into heaven.”  (Acts 1:9-11)
Who was pierced?  According to John 19:31-37, it is Jesus who was pierced:
  • Now since it was preparation day, in order that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for the sabbath day of that week was a solemn one, the Jews asked Pilate that their legs be broken and they be taken down. So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and then of the other one who was crucified with Jesus. But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs, but one soldier thrust his lance into his side, and immediately blood and water flowed out.  An eyewitness has testified, and his testimony is true; he knows that he is speaking the truth, so that you also may (come to) believe.  For this happened so that the scripture passage might be fulfilled: “Not a bone of it will be broken.”  And again another passage says: “They will look upon him whom they have pierced.”  (Jn 19:31-37)
Who shall all the peoples of the earth lament?  According to Matthew 24:30, it is the Son of Man which is Jesus Christ that all the peoples of the earth shall lament:
  • And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming upon the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. (Mt 24:30)
  • While he was still speaking, a crowd approached and in front was one of the Twelve, a man named Judas. He went up to Jesus to kiss him. Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?” (Lk 22:47-48)
Who is the one who is and who was?  According to Revelations 1:17-18, the one who is (the one who lives) and who was (the one who once was dead) is the First and the Last:
  • When I caught sight of him, I fell down at his feet as though dead. He touched me with his right hand and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last, the one who lives. Once I was dead, but now I am alive forever and ever. I hold the keys to death and the netherworld. (Rv 1:17-18)
Who is the First and the Last, the one who lives, and once was dead and now alive forever and ever?  According to Revelations 2:8, the First and the Last, the one who lives, and once was dead and now alive forever and ever is the one who once died but came to life:
  • “To the angel of the church in Smyrna, write this:” ‘The first and the last, who once died but came to life, says this:’ (Rv 2:8)
Who is the one who once died but came to life?  According to Romans 6:9-10, the one who once died but came to life is Christ:
  • We know that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more; death no longer has power over him. As to his death, he died to sin once and for all; as to his life, he lives for God. (Rom 6:9-10)
Who is the First and the Last?  According to Revelations 22:12-16, the First and the Last is the one who is coming soon:
  • “Behold, I am coming soon. I bring with me the recompense I will give to each according to his deeds. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” (Rv 22:12-13)
Who is the one who is coming soon?  According to Revelations 22:16 and 22:20, the one who is coming soon is the Lord Jesus:
  • “I, Jesus, sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright morning star.” (Rv 22:16)
  • The one who gives this testimony says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen! Come, Lord Jesus! (Rv 22:20)
Therefore, the Almighty Lord God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ.
Now that we have positively identified that the Almighty Lord God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ, let us address the stupidity of Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr. who has the insolence to declare:
[If God, who is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, has a mother, then the Bible is nothing but a book of lies!]
Does the Lord Jesus Christ, the Almighty Lord God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last, has no mother according to Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.?
To profess and preach that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Almighty Lord God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last, has no mother is the APEX OF IDIOCY!
From the horse’s mouth comes out this idiotic and damnable heresy:
[If God, who is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, has a mother, then the Bible is nothing but a book of lies!]
Let us see if the Bible is nothing but a book of lies!
According to the Bible the Lord Jesus Christ, the Almighty Lord God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last, HAS A MOTHER!
The Bible positively identifies Mary is the mother of Jesus Christ, the Almighty Lord God who is the Alpha and the Omega and the First and the Last:
  • Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary. Of her was born Jesus who is called the Messiah. (Mt 1:16)
  • Now this is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. (Mt 1:18)
  • And on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother. They prostrated themselves and did him homage. Then they opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. (Mt 2:11)
  • Is he not the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother named Mary and his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas? (Mt 13:55)
  • And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted” (Lk 2:34)
  • All these devoted themselves with one accord to prayer, together with some women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers. (Acts 1:14)
Back to our question:
Let us see who the liar is: the Bible or Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.?
THE BIG LIAR IS BORN – AGAIN BAPTIST PASTOR EMILIO A. BALLESTEROS, JR. AND NOT THE BIBLE!

[God could not be a real God if He came from a mother!]
There goes another idiotic statement from Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.
We already know from the preceding discussion that the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Almighty Lord God that is coming soon has a mother.  Thus, if we follow the satanic doctrine of Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr. that God could not be a real God if He came from a mother, then, to him Jesus Christ is not a real God!  The bad pastor of Born – Again Baptist is not only a BIG LIAR but also a HEATHEN BLASPHEMER.
Let us read how the Almighty Lord God Jesus Christ who is coming soon was first born to His mother Mary:
  • In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole world should be enrolled. This was the first enrollment, when Quirinius was governor of Syria. So all went to be enrolled, each to his own town.  And Joseph too went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth to Judea, to the city of David that is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.  While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to her firstborn son.  She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.  Now there were shepherds in that region living in the fields and keeping the night watch over their flock.  The angel of the Lord appeared to them and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were struck with great fear.  The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.  For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Messiah and Lord.”  (Lk 2:1-11)
Who is the Messiah and Lord that was the firstborn of Mary?  According to Acts 2:36, the Messiah and Lord that was the firstborn of Mary is Jesus:
  • “Therefore let the whole house of Israel know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Messiah, this Jesus whom you crucified.” (Acts 2:36)
When did God make Jesus both Lord and Messiah?
If God made Jesus both Lord and Messiah AFTER He was born by Mary, then Mary is technically not the mother of the Lord and Messiah.
In the same manner, if Jesus is God only AFTER He was born by Mary, then Mary is technically not the mother of God.
However, if Jesus Christ is God who was made both Lord and Messiah BEFORE He was born by Mary, then Mary is technically the mother of God who was made both Lord and Messiah.
Let us see what God the Father has to say on this matter:
  • For to which of the angels did God ever say: “You are my son; this day I have begotten you”? Or again: “I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me”? And again, when he leads the first-born into the world, he says: “Let all the angels of God worship him.” Of the angels he says: “He makes his angels winds and his ministers a fiery flame”; but of the Son: “Your throne, O God (SON), stands forever and ever; and a righteous scepter is the scepter of your kingdom. You loved justice and hated wickedness; therefore God (SON), your God (FATHER), anointed you (MADE CHRIST OR MESSIAH) with the oil of gladness above your companions”; and: “At the beginning, O Lord (SON MADE LORD), you established the earth, and the heavens are the works of your hands.”  (Heb 1:5-10, emphasis mine)
God the Father has spoken:  His Son Jesus Christ is God whom He made both Messiah and Lord BEFORE His Son created the heavens and the earth and all things and BEFORE He sent Him to Mary to be born of her (cf Gal 4:4).
Thus, beyond reasonable doubt Mary is technically the mother of God who was made both Lord and Messiah because her child Jesus Christ is God who was made both Lord and Messiah BEFORE she conceived, gestated, and delivered Him.
Therefore, the idiotic doctrine of Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr. that “God could not be a real God if He came from a mother” is truly the BIGGEST LIE concocted by Satan, the father of all lies and liars like the bad pastor of Born – Again Baptist, which the Protestants et al are helping in spreading out to the whole world.

[Eternity simply means having no beginning and no end!  How in the world could a God of eternity have a mother?]
Again, there goes more idiotic statement from Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr.
This self-claimed Bible believing Born – Again Baptist pastor Emilio A. Ballesteros, Jr. is a plain and simple charlatan.  He is utterly ignorant that the Almighty Lord God Jesus Christ who is coming soon has his going forth or origin from eternity, and yet He was born to His mother Mary:
  • AND THOU, BETHLEHEM Ephrata, art a little one among the thousands of Juda: out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be the ruler in Israel: and his going forth is from the beginning, from the days of eternity. (Micah 5:2, Douay-Rheims Version)
  • When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of King Herod, behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage.” When King Herod heard this, he was greatly troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Assembling all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born.   They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it has been written through the prophet: ‘And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; since from you shall come a ruler, who is to shepherd my people Israel.'”  (Mt 2:1-6)
THEREFORE, ANY WHICH WAY WE LOOK AT IT MARY IS UNQUESTIONABLY THE MOTHER OF THE ALMIGHTY LORD GOD JESUS CHRIST WHO IS COMING SOON.
PROTESTANTS, ARE YOU READY TO MEET THE JUDGE OF YOUR FINAL DESTINATION WHOSE MOTHER YOU JUDGED SO IGNOMINIOUSLY?
