Remson was a member of the Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ) in Puerto Princesa, Philippines. One day, while visiting the home of a friend to do his homework and assignments, he noticed they were good singers and dedicated members of the Adventist Church. He admired and was touched by the family’s spirit of devotion as they engaged in worship, prayer, and Bible study.

His conviction as a member of the Iglesia ni Cristo was firm. He strongly believed that no one could be saved outside his church. However, he sought out an Adventist pastor to study Adventism and found himself mingling with Adventist youth, participating in summer student canvassing, and joining students’ devotionals from 6:00 to 10:00 in the morning in Puerto Princesa for a period of two months.
