First Love (Paperback)

The purpose of this book, "First Love," is to direct Christians back to the simplicity of the message of the Gospels. We have forgotten about our first love, Jesus Christ. Over the last two thousand years, man has inserted religion into the equation and made it very difficult to see the outline of the cross through the mire. There is no unity between the Christian denominations and there is a predominant belief that we should not invoke our religious beliefs into the government due to the belief that church and state should be separate. The book also tries to show how America has slowly drifted away from God, just like ancient Israel did before the Babylonian captivity. We are a Christian nation only by name with no real substance. The book also tries to answer some questions: What is the real story of man's beginning? Is there something that we're missing about the creation story? Why isn't America in the Book of Revelation? Isn't America the world's most powerful nation? Do we even exist as a nation during the tribulation? Why don't we see the miracles that are in the Bible? Isn't our faith strong enough? What has been lost in Christ's message over the years? Christ said that Christians would be doing greater things than He did on Earth. What happened? Has our pride gotten in the way? These are just a few of the questions the book puts into perspective while shedding new light and insight by delving deeper into the "meat" of the Holy Scripture. You are sure to come away with a deeper appreciation of the majesty and wonder of God, His infinite wisdom, and His great love for you and me.
