This book is titled:
​"Save a Church from Dying..."

The book is in PDF format and this book can also be purchased in physical form.

What this content will cover...
  • The numbers lost in the last 20 years
  • Youth leaving the church
  • Comparisons of the past and the present church attitudes
  • Numbers of churches that close each year
  • How many churches are left in the US​
  • Problems that cause decline
  • Solutions to fix dying churches
  • Examples of successful, growing evangelistic churches 
  • AND more...
The book is called "Save a Church from Dying," has detailed/updated material that will outline the past, and present states of the Lord's church and where the kingdom in America is heading, if things don't change. The book will give stats on kingdom decline. Churches may not be around... in the US, if things don't change. This book details why the kingdom is dying in America and how churches, can stop this crisis. If enough congregations change, and apply the Bible-based themes (written in this book) the culture in the Lord's church toward evangelism will change. If enough leaders, elders, preachers, and Christians act, the tide will turn, in matters of church decline.

Many ideas shared within this content are sad, I had tears in my eyes writing this material. But the final chapters of this book give well-thought-out solutions for healing the weak and dying churches in the US. This book is serious and sad but it also gives hope and encouragement. Most people in the brotherhood don't know the Lord's kingdom is dying out. They don't know about this pandemic. Get this book and share it with your church leaders, and share it with your Christian friends. Help get out the word. If enough people know about this crisis and act, things can change!

The final chapter gives uplifting examples of NT American churches that are leading the way in highlighting a Bible-based example of having the work and right mindset for zealous outreach. You'll find encouragement, motivation, and sound advice on ways of creating congregational growth, within this written work. I hope you'll check this book out. It's worth going over and reflecting on.

"The Authority of the Scriptures in the Church"

This free eBook is an advanced study.  I'd encourage you to first read my book (on this site) "Grounding Principles on Salvation, the Church/Bible Authority and Bible Study, (or a book of similar content) first.  That would be a good preparatory step.   

This book d
eals with important themes of Bible authority and the silence of the scriptures.   The topic's that will be mentioned, (some more lengthy then others) are as follows... 
​
  • What is the New Testament church.  Does it matter how we worship God?  Does it matter how the church functions? 
  • Is it scriptural to have a church building?
  • Should we pay the preacher?
  • What is the difference in the Bible between "aides" and "additions."
  • What is Bible authority?   How do we know how to follow it?
  • What are Elders and Deacons?
  • Is a individual person the church?
  • How are we to use church funds?
  • What is church autonomy?
  • Why do we listen to the Apostles and follow their example?
  • The roles of the church and the Christian.  How they differ.
  • ​Are we still under the Old Law?

Access and download my free Bible study cards 

These cards can be downloaded and printed out.  The cards are attached, so you will need to use scissors to cut them apart.

Bible Memory Cards

These "Memory study cards," are downloadable files. They are post card size.  The cards will help you to learn how to deal with those who follow false doctrines and ideas. They can be used during evangelism events with your group. Or in one on one discussions. Such cards can be useful for giving answers in discussions that are generated. These cards are meant to be learned, so as to "be able to give a ready answer." But they are not meant for Bible studies, just to help facilitate answers with people, at such events....so as to help generate conversations, that can lead to a Bible study invite. :) These cards are good for memorizing or carrying in ones Bible.  ​

To grow a church and improve the kingdom, we need to focus on promoting these themes...


Picture

Please spread the word!!

Picture

Picture

From the themes of the Contract.

Options for helping to get out the word about the need for evangelism.


A. Option One to Consider:

Help me advertise on the Google search engine and on Facebook through donating.

WATCH MY VIDEO ​FOR MORE DETAILS.

Picture

​B. Option Two to Consider:

Note: Dan Barker is also promoting kingdom work and the importance of doing evangelism. He has a forum called "Leading Others to Christ." Dan interviews evangelists from around the US country. The podcasts and videos have soul winners share methods, success stories, Bible truths on the importance of soul saving and the need for it in this day and age. Like I said, there are other venues for promoting evangelism, then me. You can do things like make/run your own ads on social media or on a search engine. Or you can create a platform, blog, video, post, group, etc. Also you can help out other forums, like "Leading Others to Christ." This is another excellent platform to consider helping with donations. ​
