If you became aware of the in-fighting, wrangling, divisions and brutalities that occurred in the creation of organized denominational Christian churches, you would be shocked. In our Western Christianity, organized religion has largely lost its God-ordained intent and commission and was replaced by lust for money, lust for power and lust for control, all of which was learned by those 16th Century reformers who came out of the iron fisted grips of destructive Roman Catholicism.
When one deeply involved in any organized denominational religion removes himself from those bonds of tradition, to focus on what the contextual text of Scripture says without any one preset, biased, predisposed, denominational, or dispensational theology of influence, many deceits of denominational bias and traditions will be exposed as evil and the testimony of Christ could shine forth in victory and freedom. But since Christ’s resurrection and ascension to the right hand of God the Father, Satan has been destroying the testimony of God in Christ by people who for the love of traditions sanctioned it, and very notably for the end-times and rapture of the Church.
My book is available at Amazon and Author House which I wrote under prompting of the Holy Spirit with much Bible study and prayer. Regarding the truths of the God-created Church, if you love God’s truths more than fiction, this book is for you. If you’re still entangled in the deceptions and traditions of an organized Western church, the defense of the truths of God’s word revealed in this book will set you free to love and enjoy God’s word for exactly what it says and not what organized religion tells you to believe. Between God’s truths and the many traditions of men lies a great gulf of assumptions and conjecture making God’s word of no effect, Mark 7:13, especially for the end-times and the rapture of the Church. God desires that every one of His people believe and prepare in the testimony of His Son Jesus Christ for the time of the end and the gathering of His elect saints. This is why God gave us the examples of Noah and Lot, Luke 17:26–37.
The 7-year tribulation is imminent, and just as ancient Israel suffered tribulation at the edge of Canaan, so to “That which has been is what will be, that which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun” (Eccl. 1:9). Thus, God has warned us, “Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come” (1 Cor. 10:11). Now, we must prepare to endure to the end, Matt. 24:13.
The book reveals that while no one knows the day or hour of the Lord’s return, Matt. 24:36, God has a place of safety and provision for His elect saints for the 1,260 days of what Jesus called the great tribulation, Matt. 24:21, being the last 42 months of this present age, when the Antichrist’s mark of the beast, Rev. 13:16–17, is in full force and effect. But God’s safety is only for those who believe and prepare in the testimony of Jesus Christ. I pray that many get and read this vital book.
