To the 21St Century Christian Church: How Did We Come to This?

This book is primarily written for maturing Bible students so that they might recognize the characteristics and shortcomings of many of our Christian Churches today. They may also observe that the same failures of the seven churches in the Book of Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3, are evident today in many churches. This book is a culmination of 30 years as a Bible teacher, a degree in Biblical Theology, and insatiable appetite for the Word of God; and perhaps a desire to address my own shortcomings in the winter of my life.The context of this book is, how have many Christian Churches come to be so distant from what our Lord and Savior mandated for them to become? The seven churches in the Book of Revelation are exemplary of the seven deadly sins of pride, envy, wrath, slothfulness, lechery, avarice, and greed. I pray that this book will be received as corrective criticism that can be utilized in constructive applications by those who read it. There are seven chapters of corrective criticism; but the highlight of the book is Chapter 8!!!
