The Decline and Fall of the Church

In the last decade (2007-2017) there has been a significant reduction in the number and caliber of churches in the United States Christian community. Also, the modern church bears little resemblance to the church that is reported in the Acts of the Apostles. This book is an effort to account for this disparity. It is also written to confirm that a deterioration of spiritual values and accomplishments is by no means acceptable to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is honored by a church appropriately described in Scripture as a chaste virgin (2 Cor 11:2) that will eventually be presented to Him a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish" (Eph 5:27). This book is especially dedicated to all who maintain a godly interest in the purity of the church, which is the body of Christ.
