Official synopsis Publisher
This is a book by a lay person for lay people in the Church. We Christians blindly participate in the religious organizations and systems that have evolved to us over the past 2000 years. Especially since the time of the Roman Emperor Constantine, we have lost focus away from the original intent of the Church and the guidance of Jesus Christ. Instead we argue over untold insignificant issues within and between our churches, denominations, and religious institutions. And these organizations despite their good intentions perpetuate a form of political correctness that prevents any real self correction. One question should be asked as these institutions continue to compete for members, build impressive facilities and feather the beds of their professional staffs. Is the professional Church of today really that much different from the priesthood that ran the Temple in AD 33? This book provides insight into the answer to that question.
