Faith and Works: The Truth about Salvation and the Path to a Better Life

by Justin A Guerra

Overview

The primary objective of this book is to address, and hopefully bring together, the Catholic and Protestant faiths over the issue of faith vs works that has plagued our Churches since the Reformation. As Satan continues to turn the secular society against the Church, we Christians need to stand united. This book is designed to show the chasm between what Catholic's believe and what Protestants believe may not be as wide many might think.

Second, in working through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation God plainly shows what it takes to gain salvation, and I want to spread this message to as many people as possible and hope that this information can bring thousands of souls to Christ.  Lastly, in discovering the true path to salvation I am convinced that people will also find their purpose in life, have a greater relationship with God and the world at large and will find a joy they didn't think was possible of experiencing on this side of Heaven.
