Who Are the Christians in the Church?: How Do You Know? - Paperback

I was inspired to write this book, Who Are the Christians in the Church? How Do You Know?, because all my life I have been taught and preached about what is expected of a Christian. Even as a child until the present, what I was taught and witnessed doesn't match, even now.

My mind reflects on the scripture 2 Timothy 2:15-19,

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus (their sin of false teaching), who have wandered away from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some. Nevertheless, God's solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn from wickedness."

For years, I struggled with how comfortable people can be with intentionally hurting others and how they use power as a source of support for their actions.

Writing this book was a form of therapy for me. Years ago, I started to write a book, and I had a very close friend read it, and they said, "This isn't you." So I put it aside. I wasn't comfortable talking about me or what I have faced in life. I have been so disappointed with some actions I experienced with Christians.
