Whatever Happened to the Church (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999455550)

What do you think of when you hear the word, "church?" Most people think of a building, a religious denomination or an institution. However, the Bible's definition and description of the church Jesus died for does not fit any of the above descriptions. Church actually points to an assembly that is "called out" from the ways and activities of the world. The question is, "WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE TRUE CHURCH," the assembly of living souls? What happened to this assembly that was never limited by walls, man's religion, or worldly claims and has a heavenly calling and identity that was purchased on an old rugged cross over two thousand years ago? In this book the author considers the history of the Church along with the attitudes towards it and the presentations through the last twenty centuries as a means to bring out the real identity of the true Church according to Scripture. The reader will discover how the Church was redefined by the holy coming into agreement with the unholy. It has been organized according to political influences, reorganized with the changing of worldly philosophies, and modernized by worldly methods. The author explains in this valuable resource book why pulpits are powerless, preachers are missing the mark and the sheep are scattering because the power is missing and they can't hear the voice of the true Shepherd. Each change the Church has experienced has subtly changed the face of it to the point that what is now considered to be "the church" is not even close to the first church in Acts. It is time for those who are members of the real Church to once again come out and be separate from the apostate church of this age and claim their spiritual legacy and inheritance as the true heirs of the kingdom of God.
