    Bro Eli's Bible Exposition Live Feed Now Available to Twitter, Facebook Users

     
    The Bible Exposition that Bro Eliseo Soriano regularly conducts for his audience from East to West has also recently become available via smartphones and tablet computer devices.

    The Facebook and Twitter accounts of the Ang Dating Daan program are now sending live tweets and news feeds simultaneously as the biblical symposium is taking place during its bi-monthly schedule.

    On Facebook, the religious program is represented by Facebook.com/AngDatingDaanTV and Facebook.com/TheOldPath while Ang Dating Daan is carried on Twitter by @AngDatingDaanTV and @TheOldPathTV.

    Every first and last Friday night of the month in the Philippines, the International Evangelist devotes his time in entertaining and answering people's spiritual queries using the Bible through the now popular question-and-answer segment of the Ang Dating Daan program called Worldwide Bible Exposition.

    What started as a series of Bible studies that Bro Eli had conducted in the remote barrios of Pampanga, a province north of Manila in the late 1970s through early 1980s, is now a global propagation effort of the religious group of Ang Dating Daan (The Old Path).

    This five-hour event serves as a place-to-be for people who have questions on faith and salvation.

    Bible Expositions start at around 6 p.m. and last at around 10:30 p.m. or 11 p.m. The duration of the event is usually extended to accommodate more questions to be answered by Bro Eli Soriano. While some may find time to attend the Exposition at ADD coordinating centers scattered all over the globe, there are still those who are engaged in other commitments such as classes or works at that time albeit their eagerness to hear biblical wisdom.

    The official Facebook fan pages and Twitter accounts then provide live tweets and status updates as the Bible Exposition progresses. Users can access the live feeds coming from these social networking channels through their smartphones and tablet devices even on the go. For its part, the administrators of the official accounts see to it that every question and every answer accompanied with biblical verses is composed carefully to meet the 140-character limit of Twitter. The live blogs also feature verbatim quotes from Bro. Eli Soriano to extend the event's atmosphere to its online audience.

    On the anniversary of the Ang Dating Daan on November 4, 2012, the celebration of the 32nd anniversary of the award-winning program will include the unveiling of new propagation projects and Bible Exposition.
