Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm not a writer. I'm just a man that God called to preach His message of repent or die. The Church in America is dying, not dead yet, but dying. We are like in the book of Jeremiah chapter 7:10 "Then do you come and stand before Me in the house called by My name and insist: We are safe? As a result, you are free to continue doing all these detestable acts" (CHSB). We come to God as if everything is great and we can live as we want. But that is not true everything is not great and we cannot live as we want to. I will explain more about this in this book so please keep reading. Let me explain how God got me to write this book. A friend of mine gave me a book to read called "When a Nation Forgets God: 7 Lessons We Must Learn From Nazi Germany" by Erwin W. Lutzer . It is a great book and got me thinking about Israel in the Old Testament and God's people the church. In Erwin's book he tells a story on page 21 about a small church with a railroad track behind it and as the train would go by the people would sing at the top of their voices to not hear the screams of the Jews. As I sit in my office I can hear a train go by a few miles away, it does not have people in it but it made me think. What is the church doing for a world that is screaming for Hope, Truth, and Peace? We are about to lose our world, if the Church of God does not wake up from its coma and our way of thinking that everything is Great. Thanks for giving me your time, I know we are all short of that time. I have prayed over every word of this book and I would ask that before you go any farther in reading this book you would stop and pray that God will open your heart to what He has for you. Take your time reading and meditating on the words of the Lord. My words will not make any difference in your life or world but God's words will and have changed the world. That is why you will see a lot of scripture printed on these pages. As I have heard many men of God say, I milk a lot of different cows to get my milk. So some of the things written here, I may have read or heard from someone else. But I thank God for bringing them back to my memory.
