Accurate picture of the world today.

Make you wonder how many pulpits and pews will be full when Jesus returns. How many who follow a false doctrine are convinced they are saved.

Excellent story.

Excellent story. The time draws near. Do not follow the false teachers. They will have the reward now. Seek the Lord trust the Holy Spirit to tell you what’s right from what’s wrong.

A great story

I always enjoy books by Patrick Higgins, and this one was enjoyed as well! I learned a few Bible verses while listening and enjoyed the storyline and characters.

There is always hope

I loved this book. It taught me to reach out to God and ask for his forgiveness and control of my life. Amen

Hard Hitting Reality Check for Believers

I wanted to just say "Wow!!" because of the heavy duty impact of this story so beautifully narrated by Matthew Cross, but that's definitely not enough said about this hard hitting reality check for believers. Higgins gives a bloody nose and a swift kick in the pants to those who teach the bogus "Prosperity Gospel", hoping to help them change to a more correct direction. Excellent!!

However, when Higgins says there will be no thousand year millennium with a battle with the Enemy of our souls after that, because he can't find it in Scripture..the answer is Revelation 20:4-10 with a backup to that in Isaiah ch65-66.

Charmaine DeShields, a beautiful female Black Real Estate agent and Underground Church Chinese Pastor Mark Lau are the main characters. Charmaine hopes to draw Lau into her congregation at the "Blessed and Highly Favored Full Gospel Church" under the guidance of false prophet pastors Julian and Imogene Martine. Huge Kudos on Charmaine!!😁 No version of the "full gospel" is ever preached there. Imogene calls Lau up during their broadcasted service, laying hands on him to prophesy something she did not get from YHWH, completely failing Ezek13:3-4 and the prophet's test YHWH declared must be passed in Deut13. However it's also clear that these Prosperity Preachers have no use for anything in the Torah beyond Malachi3 used to promote tithing. Lau rebukes Imogene openly using Scripture and the race begins.

Charmaine sells a house for Lau, then with her bestie Meredith Geiger, goes to Shanghai, China to participate in some underground services and shopping. After receiving concerning messages from a whiny Meredith, Charmaine's boyfriend Rodney goes to the Martine pastors, worried she is being conned into the nefarious clutches of a cult. Ignoring what he knows about the persecution of Christians in China and worried about losing his Cash cow, Julian goes to China taking his pregnant, shopaholic wife with him. The final scenes on the airplane on which they are returning home are beautifully written and quite poignant! Sadly, even in extremis Julian cannot repent of attempting to "Command YHWH" in the arrogant name it and claim it way he's been teaching.

It's well worth the listen and I'd like to see a sequel following Pastor Lau's church pre&post Charmaine.
