Author Reveals How Churches Have Become Corporate Money-Making Machines

PRLog (Press Release) – Oct 20, 2008 – Many people wonder why they continue to attend a church that no longer fulfills their spiritual needs; most remain from a sense of guilt, obligation, and a hope they are doing what God wants. Greg Espinosa reveals why many people would be better off seeking God elsewhere in “What the Church Does Not Want You to Know” (ISBN 9780979757235, Cereb Press, 2008).

Jesus Christ preached love, forgiveness, and giving one’s riches to the poor to follow him. If he were to return today, Christ’s attack on the moneychangers in the Temple might well be repeated due to the greed and mind-control used by numerous “Christian” churches. Many modern churches not only expect members to tithe but they publish monetary contributions to shame people into compliance. Members are even expected to attend multiple services with threats of damnation if they do not obey. The joy of going into Our Father’s house has been overshadowed by fear and greed.

Rejecting claims that church membership and attendance are prerequisites for Heaven, Espinosa states that God’s love cannot be bought by money or labor. He turns to the Bible for evidence that individuals can have a close personal relationship with God without a priest or minister telling them how to live. Espinosa relates how after he left the Church, the Holy Spirit continued to fill his life.

“What The Church Does Not Want You to Know” explains how:
•   A personal relationship with God outside of organized religion is perfectly acceptable and beneficial.
•   A direct relationship with God will restore peace and sanity to one's soul.
•   Refusal to accept organized religion’s "profit through guilt" agenda allows one to approach God freely the way God intended: with confidence in His unconditional love and acceptance.
•   Absolute freedom comes from the power that is within each of us. This freedom allows us truly to know and follow God.

This IS the book organized religion will not want its followers to read. “What The Church Does Not Want You to Know” rips the veil of secrecy from organized religion and exposes the controversial but critically needed truth. Long overdue, Espinosa’s book exposes medieval practices of church-laden guilt still in practice. Espinosa is to be commended for his courage to speak out about the corruption. After reading, “What the Church Does Not Want You to Know,” many faithful Christians will feel free from guilt to find joy in a new personal relationship with God.
