Just as the title implies, this book reveals how you have been deceived on a MASSIVE scale that scripture actually prophesied (Rev 12:9, 20:7-8), we have researched the numerous " prophetic understandings" being widely taught, and they are wrong. This, seven years later, when I began learning, still astonishes me. That is the mythbusting aspect of the book or 1st argument presented, the 2nd argument is the replacement offered.

Massive Deceptions in Modern Christianity will - without any doubt - free you from that bondage.

When Jesus ascended, he gave Christians peace that the world couldn't understand. Because, his brand of peace was everlasting. No matter what you're going through or how bad the odds may seem, you can have that peace if you hold onto his words during uncertain times.

Find out why so many denominations today require tithes from their members and proclaim that if one is not tithing to the church, they are disobeying God.

In this book, we explore a narrative unfamiliar to many Christians. 16 verses are missing from modern Bible translations like the NIV, ESV, NASB, NLT, and CSB.
