Klappentext

It's no secret that there is an abundance of so-called Christian sects populating a wide range of churches, with different worship services and teachings regarding the salvation of your soul. But how can one intelligently make sense of this if there is one God who is the same yesterday, today, and forever?
This book will take you on a fact-based journey from the earliest days of Christianity to now. Wherever your personal faith and belief system currently reside, this book will test that faith and challenge you to believe in the real Jesus, the Jesus of the Gospels, and embrace the fullness of the truth found in the one Church that He established.
In these incisive pages, Jesse Romero and Paul Zucarelli present hard evidence and challenge you to disprove the facts. They present proof as to why Jesus Christ established the Church and what we are supposed to do while we await the inevitable -- the death of our bodies.
They will help you answer questions such as:
What is a "church," and does man define the term differently from how God defines it?

Did God intend to create an unlimited number of churches with differing beliefs and practices?

If Jesus Himself created the Church, by what authority does man invent his own churches? By what process did so many and varying churches develop?

You will learn about the historical origins of the Church, early Church leaders, significant places in Church history, where the tenets of the Nicene Creed come from, and how the books of the Bible were selected. In addition, you will gain an understanding of key Church scandals in history and their "triggering events" that led to further fracturing of the Church. You will also discover how precisely to respond to the division that has occurred throughout the centuries.
Moreover, you will receive the biblical basis for the universal Church and the four supernatural proofs for the one true Church. Reflection questions are provided at the end of each chapter for personal consideration and group discussion.
How firm is the foundation upon which your faith is built? Test yourself -- and test your faith -- by reading this book!
