The text was written as a single unified message. On this Web Site, it is presented in its entirety. You are invited to read it, or download it. There is no charge of any kind.

The book addresses a topic which is of particular significance to Christians; however, there is little doubt that non-Christians might appreciate it more than would those, for whom it is intended.

Although the primary topic is that of "Christian Witness", the broader perspective highlights the gap that exists between the "Christian Faith" and the "Christian Religion". As Christians have moved along the path of "religion" ----- the elements of, God, fundamental directives, and salvation, have been diminished by a parliament of rituals, and social, and political activities. Even if you are not inclined to read the entire text, you might find it interesting to read the chapters dealing with Political Activism, Evolution, Abortion and "Godless Scientists".

  • Chapter 1: Who are we? (Christians as viewed by non-Christians).

  • Chapter 2: What are churches? (Again, as viewed by "outsiders").

  • Chapter 3: Pew Shock (Deals with the social and psychological aspects of religious exposure).

  • Chapter 4: The Last Temptation of Christ. (This chapter deals with the issue of political activism).

  • Chapter 5: Abortion. (Abortion as political activism, and as an element of Christianity a case of the "Church" being ill-advised).

  • Chapter 6: A Special Challenge of Witness. (The Church is not geared, nor inclined, to tailor the message of salvation, to bright, productive and self-motivated people).

  • Chapter 7: Mirror Mirror. (This chapter deals with the terrible error, the Church omits, regarding the issues of "evolution" and "Godless scientists").

  • Chapter 8: The Scopes Monkey Trial. (This is the 1925 trial, in Dayton Tennessee, over the issue of evolution. Lessons are wasted, when viewed from a " mindless mind set". The issue is now revisited by the Topeka Kansas School Board, in the Summer of 1999).
