BOOKS READ AND
"CHURCHES" VISITED You can know a great deal about a man by the books he reads. I have read the Bible much more than all other books I have read combined. Ninety-nine percent of all the scriptural truths that I have learned have been from the Bible itself, as the Holy Spirit has taught me---not from so-called pastors or Bible teachers or books. I have read numerous books written by Christians and visited many so-called "churches" of many denominations and non-denominational persuasions so that I have a very good understanding of the sad state of apostasy among true Christians in these last days. For the past several years it has been very rare for me to read any books except the Bible. Most of the so-called Christian books published today are unsuitable for Christians, and even spiritually harmful. Listed below are the Bible versions and some of the books I have read since 1980, so that you can have a better idea of who the author of this website is. Listing does not imply endorsement.

"CHURCHES" VISITED FROM 1980 TO 1995: Much of my writings exposing false teaching comes from my experiences as the Lord led me to visit a representative sample of many varied "churches" from Costa Rica, throughout the eastern part of the U.S., to Canada. I saw and heard with my own eyes and ears what is happening among Christians in the following "churches": Southern Baptist, Independent Baptist, United Methodist, Independent Methodist, Wesleyan, Presbyterian, Disciples of Christ, Church of Christ, Christian Church, Church of God, Church of God in Christ---Mennonite, Mennonite, Pentecostal, Bible Churches, Quaker (Friends), Evangelical Free Church, Holiness Churches, Charismatic Churches, Primitive Baptist, Plymouth Brethren, Reformed Church, Assembly of God, Church of the Nazarene, Evangelical Lutheran Church, Inter-denominational Churches, Non-denominational Churches, and a few others.
