DUBAI–In just less than three years, Korean construction company Hanwha Engineering and Construction has completed building the “world’s largest domed arena”, a top official of the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) said.
In a report from Eaglenews.ph, INC’s General Auditor Glicerio Santos Jr. was quoted as saying that the construction of the Philippine Arena is already completed and only a few landscaping work and other finishing touches are now being done for the “largest theater in the planet” that would be the center of the INC’s Centennial celebrations thisJuly 27.
He said everything is now being prepared for the upcoming inauguration of the 55,000 seater-dome this month, the report added.
Eaglenews.ph also quoted Korea Bizwire as saying that the $175 million worth Philippine Arena was built on a total area of 74,000 square meters. Its roof area is scaled to 35,000 square meters.
Santos said that the funds spent for the construction of the landmark Philippine Arena, and for the various houses and buildings of worship of the INC in the Philippines and in other countries, all came from the offerings of its members.
All of the Church’s activities, including the huge evangelical relief missions being done all over the country and abroad, purely came from the Church members’ offerings, since the INC does not accept any monetary donations or contributions from non-INC members, the report said quoting Santos.
“This is one phenomenon that cannot be explained by other people, amazed at what they see as the Iglesia Ni Cristo’s successive victories. All these are happening because God is fulfilling His promise to His Church. This is proof that it is God Who is guiding and strengthening the Iglesia Ni Cristo,” Santos said.
